Chats With Parents IIOSTAC.ES TO FORTUNE ' By Brooke Peters Church The father of three, children who had a few months earlier been through the divorce mill, remarked that he thought divorce a. mistake whenever there wdre children in question. He drew his conclusion from the effects which the divorce and the circumstances leading to it had had on his own youngsters. No doubt his decision was extreme, as any decision made from a strong personal reaction is bound to be. But to a certain extent he was Justi fied in his conclusion. There are cases where adjustment between the parents Is impossible, generally be cause one or the other is not suffi ciently mature to control his tongue and temper or make any sacrifice of immediate happiness to a greater duty. Parents have unquestionably given hostages to fortune, and in so far as these hostages were given by both, and are the first responsibility of both, the contract between the par ents Is doubly hard to break. It is am axing to hear grown men and women whining for "a little per sonal happiness," a "chance to fulfill or express themselves," forgetting en tirely the obligation which they vol untarily assumed when they had children and which, for the sake of the children's welfare, cannot be cast aside like an old shoe because father or mother, or both, repent of their bargain. There was probably never a mar riage which did not at some time approach perilously near disaster. ut in marriage, as In all careers and callings, compromise, a choice of the greatest good for the greatest num ber, is essential. Making a success of any marriage Is an art, and especially where there are children, the finest and most worth-while art there Is. MRS.

RISSK1.L (Contributed) The beautiful burial service con ducted by Bev. Clarence A. Kopp at St. Peter's Episcopal church lost Thursday for Mrs. J. A. Russell was the last scene in the earthly .career of a woman whose life deserves more than a passing notice. Most of her seventy-four years were passed in this valley and It was fitting -that she should bo laid to rest beneath the shadow of the hills that she loved. Although this was always her home, she was frequently away for several months at a time as she was fond of travel. During the early 70s, she was a student ait St. Pouls school In Walla Walla, and she also spent a year In nurses' training at the Good Samari tan hospital In Portland. Since girlhood she had been a devoted member of the Episcopal church, in which she was a faithful worker1 and a generous contributor. It Is a fact, perhaps not generally known so modest were they regarding It, that a very substantial donation from Mr. and Mrs. Russell combined with that of Mrs. Honan, gave to St. Peter's parish the fine building known as Honan hall. Mrs. Russell wns a woman of strong convictions frankly ex pressed, yet always a loyal friend and Just and fair to those who differed from her. Possessed of a strikingly original mind, as well as a keen wit, she was always an outstanding char acter In any community In which she lived. She will be deeply missed in the church, in her family and In the hearts of her friends. This tribute is from one who has known and loved her well through all the changing scenes of her life for more than half a century. WANT MO HE 1KP?

Lone Pine Regains Historical Prestige (Continued Frum Page One) that it wouldn't be stretching history any to decide that the 1843 wagon train, first to enter this volley, camp ed near both trees at least not more than 200 feet from one of them, which may have been small enough at that time to be overlooked by Mrs. Kirk wood and other members of her party. The present tree is located on tho state highway right of way, and ocv eral local peoplo have expressed tho opinion that it would be only fit ting that someone erect a memorial of appropriate size beside the old tree, recording l-e historial signifi cance, and also seek to have the state declare It a park, so as to protect the tree from possible destruction by man at some future time.
