Philippians 2: 8. . WHY NOT GET OUR SHARE .. A new policy for the navy has been made, public bythe 'some way or another for the vast sums that, the R. P, C. will use in financing projects over the nation to aid unemploy ment, . People in La Grande Will be exempt rid more than people in Portland, Ore., or Portjand, Me. So, since everyone must pay his or her share; why not try to get as much back for the money spent as possible? ' , t , ' Which is just another argument why La Grande should vote on July 21 for a $257,000 bond issue for reconstruction of the Beaver creek pipeline. It won't cost the taxpayers' a cent. Thirty per cent of the financing will be done by the R. F. C. as an outright grant, and the other 70' per cent will be paid out over a long period of time through water department receipts, and the bonds issued will carry a low rate of interest.. This all, of course, depends upon whether the R. F. Q. will finance the proposition. First, however, the .city must" vote a bond issue, because without the voters' approval, any at tempt to get federal aid would merely be wasted effort.;.. If the city were to vote the bond's, and the R. F. C. fail' to finance the project, the city commission, declares that' the project would be dropped and So, really, there seems to be ous amount to gain. The citizen of La Grande who knows' f he meaning of "grasping an opportunity" will not vote no on this question when it confronts WE WANT Anew policy for the navy navy department, and. it includes designation, of two naval bases on the Atlantic coast and two also on tho Pacific. Formerly only Vallcjo, near San malic ocean naval activities. Bremerton, Wash., may be come the second base in: the west. Tho pronouncement said the navy should' lie maintained "in sufficient strength to support the national policies and commerce and to guard the continental and overseas posses sions of the United States." A strong navy does not necessarily indicate that' a country is hunting for war; and the country with a big, effective fleet of battleships rarely is attacked except under extreme conditions. . That's why we favor an adequate navy we want peace. ON THE SPOT From now on President R6ose,velt is "on the spot" so fai ns his program is concerned It is distinctly lip, to him to "shoot or give up the gun." He has been given the greatest power, ever devolved upon a peace time president and prob ably has more authority than any living head of a liberal government. His chief task will be to see that the ninny cou, set u to promote the "new deal" fit smoothly and work to make the economic machine operate without stripping the gears. His chief aim has been mid is, so far as one may know, to raise commodity prices. However, there must be a. bal ance in order that these gains in one field shall not be nulli fied by losses in others. For example, as prices go up, so must wages, and conversely purchasing power must not precede proper industrial preparation. The thing must syn chronize if society as an entity is to be improved. Oregon's new ?5 half-year automobile licenses are selling almost 40 per cent faster than the higher priced full vein- licenses of last year. This in tics of gasoline! You can fool people with flattery foi- ninny moons but sooner or later tho time comes wlien you must deliver the goods. "I3uy American" is all rij-ht provided tlio American farm ers do not expect to sell their wheat and cotton in other countries. Cheer up! Hotter times arc soon. .

WALLOWA VALLEY STAGES Health ' TONSILS . Tho tonsils present a number qf probloma which hayo not as yet been settled to the full satisfaction of clinician, surgeon, and, patient. It is not, uncommon for a mother to complain that,, whereas one doo tor lnsicts that the tonsils of her child must be- removed at once an other denies the urgenoy of the sit uation. , . : , The physiology of the tonsils has not been clearly defined. Structurally we know them to be lymphoid in character. .The tonsils bear a. very elose . relation to the other lymph glands and lymph structures. Lymph tissue Is made up largely of the so-called white bloodt, cells. These we know are the patrolmen and the scavengers ( of, the human system, and they protect us to a large degree agalnBt the Invasion of foreign. substances. , . Some, however, maintain that, in addition,-, the tonsils,, precisely be cause 1,hey are exposed to Infection, help us in developing immunity or resistance to disease. They argue that their unnecesstry removal Is a handicap, rather than a benefit to the child. . -. .,. . From all of this mass of argumen tative . data, a few universally ac cepted facts can.be abstracted, par ticularly with regard to the , condi tions under which the removal of the tonsils . Is indicated.. .. . . . First, there are those tonsils which are so large that they interfere with breathing, ant) may even- make swal lowing difficult... ; Such tonsils re quire surgical treatment... More important, however, is , the removal of tho tonsils which are a source of sepsis. - How can, one de termine, when the tonsils aro i source of sepsis? There are two cri teria: one, the history of the-case; the other, the - appearance of the tonsils. Of tha two criteria, the fbt is the more Important. Professor -Hajek of Vienna- estab lished this postulate, that if a person has three attacks of. follicular ten- si litis during a (period of : one or two years, the tonsils should be suspected as a source of sepsis. Removal of the tonsils is Indicated in such cases. Only .35 per cont. of department stores which operate restaurants do so with the expectation that they will return-a direct profit, a recent survey revealed:- ' ' OTP MULTNOMAH PORTLAND OREGON i PORTLAND'S LARGEST AND NATIONALLY FAMOUS HOSTELRY . ,. .
