Tracy, Hepburn Here in Comedy "Without Love" An outstanding cast, headed by co-stars Spencer Tracy and Kath arine Hepburn and including such tried-and-true comedy ex perts as Lucille Ball, Keenan Wynn and Felix Bressart, has been brought together by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer to provide one of the most mirthful movies of the season in "Without Love," which opens Sunday at the Lib erty theater. Based on the play by Philip Barry, author of "The Philadel phia Story," the new attraction is the story of a scientist-inventor (Tracy) and a girl (Miss Hep burn) both of whom shun love. Each has different reasons for re jecting love, and both are deter mined to stay away from it.

GILROY. D.D. From the story of ancient Israel, ending with the Israelites in Egypt, and the restoration of Joseph to his father, Jacob, we turn now to a series of lessons in the fourth quarter of the yea! on the general theme. The Chrisc and His Relationships. First of ihese ltssons is on The Christian Way of Life. No lessons could be more needed at the present time. We have seen the conclusion of a long and terrible war, in which, in the sheer business of preserv ing our very lives and liberties, we have been forced to stop ag gression by the use of violence in opposing and conquering vi olent men. The atomic bomb has emphasized as never before the horror of war, and the cleavage between the destruc liveness of war and the life and teaching of Jesus. He said He had come, not to destroy men's lives, but to save them; to give life, and to give it more abun dantly. This is not the place to dis cuss the vexed issues between pacifism and military service. Most of us bolieve that violent men, out to destroy all we hold dear, forced us to use violence to defeat violence. We never believed in war; we never took up weapons, or made air raids willingly. Our boast was that we were fighting to preserve democracy and liberty. We wanted to restore a world in which men could practice re ligion and brotherhood. Now, in the time of victory, comes the supreme 'test. Do we really believe in the Christian way of life for which we have been fighting? How clofely and truly are we going to follow it, now that freedom to follow it is restored? The war has been like great epidemic of disease. threatening to destroy us: but r.ow, with normal health restored, hall we find and keep the high est things to which man can com mit his whole heart and soul? The Christian wav of life is defined, in Matthew, Mark, ar.d Luke, explicitly and in the whole New Testament generally, in the two great commandments Apple Pickers Wanted! lamb Ranch, Elf ia, Ore. !:! PfiB mix Ticking Better Than 1-ast Year Joy Veach Bride Of Bill Dobbin in Portland Ceremony UNION, Oct. 13 (Special) A wedding of interest to icsi dent of Hhis community took place Thursday in Portland at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Char les Burrows, when William (Bill) Dobbin of Union and Miss Joy Veach of La Grande were 'mar ried. Burrows, a collage friend of the groom, was best man and Mis. Burrows matron of honor. The bride dressed in a gold traveling suit with black acces sories and carried a bouquet of roses. The young couple left immediately for a two weeks trip into California and on their return will be at home on the Dobbin place about four miles west of lii.ion. Mrs. Dobbin, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jerry L. Veach, is a graduate of the La Grande high school and is well known in that community. Dobbin is the son of Mr. and Mrs Willlnm Dobbin of .Union and has spent most of his life here. He is a graauaie ot un ion high school and of the Uni versity of Oregon. .He served with overseas forces, was in Eng land for some time and received his discharge in November 1944. Mrs. Desta Hoyt of Wasco, Oregon arrived Sunday for a visit with her sister, Mrs. Lizzie Skiff and other Union relatives. A brother Mr. Clint Haynes of La Grande came over to spend Wed nesday and Thursday with his sisters and to call on old time lriends. Mrs. C. P. Edvalson and her daughter, Miss Esther were host esses Sunday to a family reunion, where the entire Edvalson fam ily with Miss Ada Edvalson of Portland and 'the Herman Ed valsons of Baker joined in wel coming the return of two Edval son boys, who had been overseas. John, son of Mrs. C. P. Edvalson and brother of Esther, had just returned from Germany after an absence of 27 months; Donald, son of Mr. ond Mrs. Theodore Edvalson had returned from ser vice in England, received his dis charge on Friday and arrived in union Sunday in time for the welcome from the entire family. Mrs. Ora Cline and her son Darrell returned from a visit to Salt Lake City Monday evening, Miss LaFaye, the daughter, who accompanied them on the trip remained in Salt Lake. of love to God and love to man; to love God with all the heart and soul and mind and strength and to love one's neighbor n(. one's self. It ought to be noted that this is not the Christian way alone; It is in the highest teaching of Judaism, as one may see by turning to Deuteronomy 6; and the Shema, the verses from that chapter containing the great commandment, were a part of the worship in the syna gogue every Sabbath. Jesus did not invent these com mandments, or the Christian way oi life. He asked His questioner what was written in the law; how did he rend it? And when the questioner replied in the words of the two commandments, Jesus approved. "This do," said He, "and thou shalt live." He had come, He said, not to destroy, but to fulfill. What Jesus did was to em phasize what is written in God's constitution of the universe, ond in the highest life of man. The Christian way of life defines something as basic as the lows that uphold the universe. Jesus did not make truth; He asserted the truth that is in the very nature of God and man, and man's relation to God, and man's relation to his fellowmen. What Jesus did in relation to these commandments was to make them real and vital. He gave a new meaning to the wont "neighbor," and emphasized it in the great story of The Good Samaritan.
