Tho Round-up association at Pendleton is considering the staging of the "epic of the west" earlier in the season. Rea sons for a change are not given by the Pendleton ICast-Ore-gonian but we c.ssiime that tho weather and a school month have something-to do with the objection to September. Surely a late August or early. September dale would not hurt the show and it might produce bigger crowd:; dining the opening days.- Many tourists are homeward bound to get the youngsters into school hy the third week in September. If scheduled earlier, there should be a good chance to draw more of that business. Then everyone can recall cold, wet days at the Hound-Up that might, be eliminated by holding it, two or three weeks earlier. .' fa & fa fa fa D Lovely sheer chiffon hose is prized by every feminine, and with tree famous'1 ;makes from which to choose your selection should be much easier.

President Hoover's approach to the problem of world peace I is significant because it is a scientific approach, such as might bo expected of an eminent engineer, ami not the1 method that would be adopted by the ordinary statesman. : This is the assertion of Mark Sullivan, political writer and author, who discusses the problem in tiie winter issue of the i Yale Peview. J Peace, in Mr. Hoover's conception, says Sullivan, "must be the beneficiary of an activity and an expenditure or care and i energy which is the equivalent, in case of war, of what we! call preparedness. This conception of peace was more likely to occur to a man of science than to a .statesman of the more usual type of training." j Sullivan illustrates his point by discussimr Mr. HooverV proposal that food ships, in time of war, lie immune to block ade. This was not merely a hun-anitai iy i incisure, ' Sullivan sees it; it was a proposal that struck at the loots of war. For the fact that food, in war time, is contraband,! makes for war; among nations Re Gnat Britain, dependent on their food imports, by raising an ever-present threat to their security, and among exporting nations, like he t'nited States, by constantly menacing their prosperity. Ilemove this threat, and you have one less, i se on I'm- war preparedness, war measures and big navies. Thai, al any rate, is Sullivan's theory. One' thing, at least, in sure: (In ordinary statesmen, so 'far, have sadly failed to end v: ;-. ., li nn engineer can succeed then more power to our eugiueei president. So far he is attacking the problem with nmr.t energy than previous executives, If he e.nd Premier Mae-.
