Acta. 2:311. I ' Baker athletic fans are happy. In the first encounter'bo I tween Baker and La Grande higli schools in Baker since the football trouble last fall the local basketball quintet emerged with a single point, while Baker had twenty-five. We arc glad they feel good about it. If winning by large margins in j; the future will help them get over their unwarranted pre l judices when La Grande is concerned, The Observer is per il fectly willing that La Grande should suffer defeat. Only one :, thing would this community insist on: No players who have j been "adopted" to make them eligible to participate. s ; Joseph and Mannix, Portland attorneys, are doomed to ( suffer for conduct unbecoming members of their profession. The former is recommended for permanent disbarment, the latter for suspension for three years. And no one who re : calls the testimony in the two cases can doubt the good judgment of the referees in their decision. The tactics em ployed by these two men cast serious reflections on a profession that should be maintained at a high level of honor and honesty. If the court's action sustains the verdict, it will serve as a lesson to others in the future. It will be a new measure of protection for the public, for honest and conscientious public servants. And that, being the purpose of the law, is as it should be. " The delegation of city officials and civic leaders from j Hood River, which, was here last night and today .inspecting city improvement KtiiWti HninlsreSv4TI tWief cfiltTtWiHt ities and a desire to profit by their experiences that is most commendable. Not. always do city administrations have such broad view's of, their duties and responsibilities. Not always are the men in municipal authority willing to take the time and trouble to find out what other cities have done. Hood River, quite obviously, has a progressive, intelligent city administration. , Like La Grande's, the officials want their community to keep moving ahead. They apparently realize that modern street lighting, for example, is essential for the modern city just as it is for the modern home. They know that money spent in a civic improvement of that kind will return good dividends in civic pride, in attracting busi ness. Certainly the people of La Grande appreciate this opportunity to entertain the official family of Hood River, as Well as the opportunity to render every possible service in the consideration of lighting projects. Their stop is a com pliment to this community and it lays the foundation for intercity good will that cannot fail to have many mutual benefits in the future. RICH RKSOUKCKS If the Russian government could hiive sold $5,000,0(10 worth of pulp liml)cr as it stood in the forests of southeastern Alaska in 1N(7, when Secretary Seward purchased the entire territory for the insignificant sum of $7,200,000 the czar of Russia would not have signed the document that trans ferred Alaska to the United States, and Mr. Seward would not have been lampooned as u wastrel for throwing away public funds. There is now being cut in Alaska, under a single contract, a timber tract that will produce more than enough revenue for Uncle Sam to repay him for the millions involved in "Seward's Folly." And the cutting of this limber is not in conflict with the nation's conservation program. Instead of leaving the old trees die and ml, they will he cut for their valuable wood and young and healthier trees will rise in their place. Since the United Stales built the Alaskan railroad a con troversy has waged that compares with that provoked when Seward signed the treaty for the purchase of Alaska. 'Hie present congress has added fuel to it by giving more than ordinary attention to the question. But controversies and congressional debates are a long way from getting the public out of the notion that it was a bargain and .that the Ameri can people have been repaid many times. Alaskan coal, which with the aid of an Alaskan railroad it was once thought would lower the price of coal in the United Stales, was found, after completion of the railroad, to be of too poor quality for the market in the states. Rut the furs, fish, mineral and lumber coming out of Alaska each year more than eonuwiisate for this disappointment. LA GRANDE EVENING OBSERVED, LA GRANDE. ORE.

This may bf due to in correct cooking or the fact that the food itself is lacking in flavor. Vegetables are outstanding in the c!ass of foods that "go begginis." Spitiaeh is rejected because its flavor is loo mild. Tomatoes ore often "turned down' because their Amor i too yharp. Carrots and peas, when too old, or cooked too long, become tasteless. Vy ming sugar tn reason thse vegetables as they cook, their flawr trill be noticeably improved. A dash of sugar to a pinch of salt Is a good rule to follow. It is surprising ho this combination will heighten, for ; example, the mild flavor of spinach ; and pleasantly soften the sharp j taste of tomatoes. i ! loetors and dietitians are heartily In favor of this use of lugar in mak- !
