There was the grange picnic, the Eagles picnic, the Red & White Co. picnic, and many, many others during the last wqek. Everyone had a larrupin' good time, whether they swam, or played hoi-seshoes, or raced, or played ball, or just loafed and ate. That's one of the beauties of living in La Grande you're v ithin easy driving distance of any number of splendid picnic spots. You can just about take your pick, as a matter Of fact, .although sometime you have to get there early in the day to get the site you seek. But there are all kinds of places a likeside spot, a broad, grassy space near the river, n clear spring in the pines, or what have you. . Anci, when you have no desire to go any great distance, Kiverside park just outside of the city limits offers splendid picnicking opportunities. ternoon.

And the world has thQ intereHtinp; spectacle of an other airman skimming: over bleak mountains and bleaker plains in an isolate section of the world, taking the bit in his mouth in an effort to do something no other rmin ever accomplished alone. The world wished Mattern success in his venture, and now we extend the same wishes, to Post. And if he accom plishes a solo 'round-the-world flight, what will man's next attempt be? It would seem that about the only things left to be con quered then will be the moon and stars, and some attempts are underway for that goid too. Sports season to some extent is going into a vacation lo cally. The Eagles and American Legion junior baseball teams have disbanded for the season, the city tennis cham pionship has been settled and of course, there has been no intei-scholastic or intci-colleginle sports since last May.
