There is a new philosophy of life that is remaking the world. The original fatalism of the early man was changed by Christianity into a semi-responsible, semi-dependent, "trust in God" attitude. The modem mind after passing thru a period of contradictory unrest, including every phase from atheism to spiritism, is settling down on the more progressive theory of the universe which can best be described as a "God trusts in you" attitude. Recognizing the life principle of "change" every living creature must progress or decay. And what is true of individuals is true of the social condition of the whole. Up unto the present day the advances of mankind have been accomplished largely thru a blind instinct, for no one doubts that the human race has been ordained to develop and improve. It is this new life principle applied to social affairs that makes com ing the carnival a grand success.

What could have been accomplished if the other 99 per cent of the people had been working consciously for a better world ? That is the gist of the new philosophy, to work consciously and constantly for improve ment rather than for correction. You have seen good counties and good towns become almost worth less on account of "human" and not natural causes. You have seen other part of the week and reported hav ing lost his studio and contents by fire Wednesday. Notice To Debtors AH persons knowing themselves to places and sections become world famous and graciously prosperous beyond ! be indebted to the Vale Hardware comparison with their natural rivals. They were the communities and cities who had a plan to sell the world. Any plan to work out requires co operation, attention, interest and support by a great majority of those ef fected. It pays well to advertise a community the same as it does a de partment store or an automobile or a cigarette; but a community must be as specific in its "Wanted" advertisements as the merchant is in his "for sale" notices. In January 1919 the Enterprise set forth a "Program of Progress" for Malheur County, commenting as follows: The Malheur Enterprise aside from recording the various mat ters of news interest effecting the people of Malheur County has de voted its special interest for the past year toward winning the war and urging Malheur County to uphold her share in all war works. Now that the war has been won and with a proud feeling that Malheur Coun ty loyally and fully met her war duties and responded to the limit in money, men and sacrifices, it is our pleasure and duty to return to ttic problems of reconstruction. The general problem is to help the Malheur county towns grow, the farmers and stockmen prosper and reclaim and utilize the two mil lion acres of tillable land, now idling untouched and mostly unclaimed in order to provide homes for thousands of returning heroi and home seekers. In order to accomplish thi.i the Malheur Enterprise proposes, ad vocates and will work for the following program of progress to which time will make additions and amendments. And like any program the completion depends upon the support and cooperation of all concerned. Read over the following, pick out whi t movements you can help and get busy boosting. Real boosting means more hard work that hot air, so pull your coat off and do your part. The past six months have, as predicted made it necessary to amend the program. Due to the efforts of the Malheur County Development League u county road program has been ai pted nnd our big task now is to get the state anil national cooperation that we are entitled to. The Warmspi ings project is nenring completion and the Harper extension has already been proposed, while thousands of acres of sage brush land has been purchased by home builders. We ure adding a few suggestions In parenthesis. There is no question but. that opportunity has arrived at the gates of Malheui county. Are our lookouts on the job, or are they trying to argue that "Podunk" is a better precinct than "Punkville" and have not recognized tho stranger? Let us all work to make a lot of amendments necessary in the next six months. PROGRAM FOR MALHEUR COUNTY 1. The successful Completion of the Warm,srings project. 2. Government appropriation for the larger Owyhee project. 3. Clear way for construction of Bully Creek project. 4. Settlement of 4,000,000 acres of tillable and grazing homestead lands.

On any road lead ing to town, small and large piles of rubbish placed carefully close to the road so that all may see them, are growing in number every day. Be sides being against State laws, it is against the laws of common decency and should be stopped immedirtely. Any slough near the city could be filled with this refuse and made prof itable property, besides afford-ng a place to put the stuff. Let's see the Improvement Club get behind this in their effort to dress up the city and its environs. Crook County Journal. i'UlMiRAM FOR VALE 1.
