He said unto me, My grace is sufficient for Thee: for ny
strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore
will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ
may rest upon me. 2 Cor. 12:9.
PENSION PROBLEMS
" When the United States mobilized its resources to support
its entry into the World War and called three and one half
millions of its citizens for military service there were those
who saw the rising of a great problem the problem of
providing, in accordance with established practice, for the
great number called to the colors. That problem was not
solved by the recent campaign between Uie executive and
administrative branches of the federal government.
It was because experience had proved the weaknesses and
excessive costs of the pension system, and because of the
abuses and scandals under that ystem, that war risk insur
ance was decided upon as preferable. It was generally un
derstood that this insurance plan was in lieu of pensions, but
shortly after the war ended it was decided that the veterans
should be treated more generously, and again to avoid the
.l!fvtiomiblo pension system, fhe bonus plan was hit upon
And now the pension plan may vault that obstacle.
Taxpayers do not object to the pensioning of war veterans
but do oppose unfair discrinu'nation in the distribution of
pensions. Their fight is against political exploitation of ,the
pension plan, extravagant waste of pension funds, and th;
.other abuses and scandals .. that have followed in 4he waje,
of preceding pension laws,
' And- now. at its convention the Oregon department of, the
American Legion has again registered its opposition to a
general pension plan, favoring instead convpensation for ser
vice disabilities, adequate hospitalization for veterans, a
definite rehabilitation program, the adjusted compensation
principle and insurance loans. --
LOYALTY THE KEYNOTE !
; la Grande as a community has lost one of its most royal
mentis and supporters in the passing of A. J. Martin, Civil
iwar veteran and retired railroad nun.
Mr. Martin was in many ways an unusual nun. Perhaps?
li y.tUy was the keynote of his character, and he set a won
UUi'ful example for others to attempt to follow. That which ;
'he ruimiied he supported and whole-heartedly at all times.
His was the type of loyalty that manifested itself at re
;l:.ar.i!s as well as concerts, and it did not dull vfhen the
c!ouds of defeat were blackest.
J We recall many instances that demonstrated the many
;niie things about Mr. Martin's life, some taking place during
r.ts i-tdlhx.d career, others in his fraternal and patriotic
.letivities, some in his every-day associations.
"Among his favorites were his flag Old Glory that he
served under back in 1S62-6S, the La Grande municipal '
Uind, and the La Grande baseball team, when the latter wis
in existence. He never wavered in his support : he would
travel scores of miles and sit through a dust storm to watch
his favorite team in action. He sought and expected no
reward: if reward came, he accepted it with becoming
modesty. There was nothing that smirked of hypocrisy in
his makeup; when he formed his convictions, he kept faith
with them. i
A I.ITTI.K THIEVING
lly Alice JudMiit Peale
Probably every child In the course
of his growing up thieves a little
new and then. Pennies from his
mother'r. purse, forbidden cookies
frcm the Jar on the pantry shell or
an especially charming toy from an
unwary playmate. j
Nor Is he. because of these small i
delinquencies, a potential criminal. I
On the contrary, he Is a wholly nor
mal child who. until he has been
taught otherwise, sees no reason for t
net taking what he wants. !
A very little child may be taught
to respect the property of others
through having his own possessions
treated with respect by the member
cf the household. Ae he grows older :
and his intelligence develops he will
respond to simple, reasonable ex- j
planatlons. j
It will help If he Is treated always 1
with lore and understanding and If
he has enough pleasures and posses-
slons of the sort that he craves. A
child who has no money of his own
to spend and too few or unattractive .
tcys can hardly be blamed for taking .
these things where he finds them. .
Abstract moral Inhibitions should not
be counted on In children.
Perhaps the worst thing that can
happen to a child whose parent has
apprehended him In thefs Is to have
a great deal made of the Incident so
that he Is forced to regard himself as .
a moral leper.
Such overpowering disapproval dis
courages and Intimidates him. H
ma;s him reel guilty and inferior.!
It causes him to lose confidence In i
himself.
If children are to grow to be the :
men and women we want them to be- '
ccme. they must never, no matter ;
what they have done, be permitted ;
to oouot our talth in Uielr desire and i
aouity to ao rig:it.

THE TOBACCO HABIT
The war on Demon Nicotine is no new thing, although it
k'true the nxvo for prohibition of the use of toKtcco by
constitutional amendment is a relatively young idea. Many
worthy men and women have denounced the "filthy habit"
since the time Sir Walter Raleigh was deluged by the serving
maid who, seeing him smoking Indian tobacco, thought him
rfire.
The wgue of tobacco and its persistence for centuries is
not easy to understand by those who take life with deep
seriousness. No one is ;;pt to claim that tobacco is a ther
apeutic agent. It shortens the breath, causes tobacco heart.
.Mains the fingers, litters the parlor and office, is ar. expe:.
Mve habit and gives an unpleasant odor to the clothing,
breath and surroundings. In the face of all these ev;! effects,
why does it nuntfvr its devotees by the millions'?
Many users of tobacco will frankly acknowledge that they
r.re sorry they ever started the use of it. The rvmedy see:.!
to lie in educating the boys and ciils to avoid the habit.

H. A. SCOTT. Sct.
THERE are no two ways about it! Certainly the
easiest way to get the most for every dollar you spend
is to buy products that you know about through the
advertisements in your daily paper. You don't have
to go out and look for buying opportunities. The ad
vertisements bring them to you. And all you need do
is consider the facts, compare values and decide on the
soap or the sedan that best fits your judgment and
your pocketbook.
Certainly the best way of making your money go
farthest is to buy merchandise of proved value. Adver
tised merchandise. Merchandise that is bought and
used by many people. Merchandise that must be
superlatively good enough for its maker to keep call
ing it to the attention of people day after day and year
after year.
This is the service of convenience and profit
that the advertisements offer you every day. It will
pay you to read them regularly and take advantage of
everything they can do for you.
