It was recently our pleasure to
hear a talk by a local citizen on the
Isuuject of coin collecting. The avo
cation is purely a sideline with the
sneaker, but from It hp ririvs fm!
H In collecting old coins Is perhaps
Ijhard for Borne of us to picture but
i to this gentleman It was very real.
An old Spanish coin dated three or
lour centuries ago brings to his mind
i visions of the old days when this
; Pacific coast was dominated by the
Spaniards and their gold laden ves
sels were plying their trade Into
various ports. The interesting part
of this discussion to the listener ;
was that right at our very door may
be coins that are rich in historical !
background, and for that matter ex- ty press
ceedlngly valuable If they chance to mmm
! be of the right coinage and age. I

The only trouble in the past has
wuere ana wnen tney used both
metals without actual and adequate
action in making the two metals

main trouble was that two-thirds of

obvious, therefore, that if bimetal

would at lasf have a world money,

beautification should not be confined to parks alone.
: The new Union Pacific depot, with the landscaping of j
the grounds, now makes a highly pleasing impression upon
railway travelers passing through La Grande, but there is
unlimited oppoitunity for beautification of the property
along the railroad right-of-way on each side of town. The
planting of trees and shrubbery would bring the right-of-way
into harmony with the station grounds.
We should not forget that thousands of travelers come I

This is a theory-or, rather, an axiom, a self-evident factH"TohT STn" hi"-
that we need to have called to our attention rather fie- u -
quently.
The growing complexity of the world has placed a great
responsibility on the shoulders of the average citizen. A
century or more ago a nation could get along very nicely if
all hands left the understanding and direction of things to a
small, specialized group at the top. Tho great muss of
people never bothered alxnit any problems not directly con
nected with the events of daily life and the system worked
out fairly well.
But those days are gone forever. We must not only
learn all we can about the ins and outs of the daily job; we
must, whether we like it or not, become informed about the
fntire world, because things that happen in far-away places
on the other side of the globe can affect us in a profound and
intimate way.
It is often said that we need wise leadership in these com
plicated times. That is quite true; but wise leadership is
IKiweiless unless those whom it is to lead know what it is
nil about. Humanity has seldom had quite as many chances
!o go rushing down a steep place into the sea as it has today.
The danger won't b6 avoided unless we of the rank and file
keep mentally abreast of the times.
