Ban Francisco, Loa Angeles, Seattle. Portland, Chicago Detroit, New York CONGRATULATIONS, UNION Unipn again will be host to the eight high school basket ball teams in the play-off for the championship of district No. 1, and the coveted trip to Salem to participate in the state .tournament. The eight teams qualifying for the tour nament niiide the decision, five voting for Union and three for La Grande. It seems to us to be an unquestionably fair way .to dispose of the tournament question, with the schools alone having the say, and outside interests in the background as they should be. After all, the tournament is a school affair and they should have the final say. The vote for Union not only showed the preference of the majority of the teams to hold the tournament there, but it also aims as a vote of confidence for Roy Conklin, superin tendent there, who has managed basketball tournaments and track meets so many times and so efficiently in the past. Many Lit Grande people unquestionably desired to have the tournament here this year, yet we are sure that the entire community joins heartily with us in extending sincere con gratulations to Union in its selection to again be host to the eight best basketball teams in this district. AN ANNIVERSARY OF NOTI3 ' A year ago today was an auspicious occasion in La Grande history and marked a new turning point in this conuiuinity's progress and prosperity. We wonder how .many in the city would have recalled this anniversary without mention an anniversary of the start of an uptrend in local community soundness that has known no backward step and is still go ing forward. The re-organized First National Bank of La Grande re opened its doors just one year ago today. The faith of the community in its own abilities as well as in the judgment and integrity of the men it placed at the helm of this finan cial institution lias been well proven. In one years time the La Grande bank has taken a place of recognition as one of the soundest institutions of its kind in the state. Within a month from now, or slightly over one year's tiine from its opening, the load bank will have .called all outstanding certi ficates of deposit, thereby fulfilling to its depositors an obli gation of around $325,000 nearly three years before comple tion of same was expected. PREPARE TO OPEN TOUR PURSE,' MISTER MAN! With 480 tickets to the annual Spring Fashion Tea to bo held tomorrow already purchased, and the La Grande branch of the American Association of University Women announc ing there will be 60 more places available tomorrow; with a corps of 100 more women hostesses and their assistants present, it means that 640 Ia Grande women will watch an exposition of the latest creations of Dame Fashion's realm. It also means that every one of those 610 women will go home after the tea with a lot of ideas as to her future ward robe, that bids fair to indicate a decided increase in shop ping up and down Adams avenue and intersecting streets in the business district during the coming month. You had better prepare to open your purse, Mister Man! . . .

I Get a Jar today at Glass Drugs, Inc. You could Jrive a tack with a. sleihjc hammer I But yon wouldn't. It's a long way from ham mers to coffee but the same rule applies. You could use the same kind of coffee in cither a drip maker or a per colator but you shouldn't. Each one demands a dif ferent coffee. In a drip coffee maker, boiling water drips ONLY ONCE through a coffee specially prepared to yield its flavor quickly.. In a percolator, water passes many times through a coffee prepared to yield its flavor slowly. The same coffee can be used for both methods, but like a "Jack-of-all-trades" it is "master of none" neither drip nor percolator. In one or the other, little things happen. It's a little weak, or a little strong, or a little cloudy, or it has a little less flavor. It's these little things that make ' or mar 'good coffee. Be sure to use the correct coffee for each. method.
