"Without Love"
An outstanding cast, headed by

such tried-and-true comedy ex

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.

o SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON
Observance of Two Commandants
Would Insure Lasting World Peace ' 3
Scripture: Matthew 22:36-39; Mark f2:2B-34; Luke 10:25-37
By WILLIAM E. 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

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.
