Have you ever been perfectly
happy? Have you ever known
true peace and tranquility? You
may say yes but have you?
There may be times when wor
ries are swept away and you sit
back In satisfaction and con
tentment, but is it happiness
and peace? Joline thought she
was happy nothing bothered
her dancing little heart, down
among her friends and those
who adored her in the pleasant
cafe. But there was a rose bush
upon which she laid her hand
that pushed back the clouds
and let her look beyond. There
she found happiness.

The 1919 Clark Seedling strawher-

' the Apple Growers' Association shlp
jped the last carload of fruit for the
'season, bringing the total to 80 cars.
The marketing of the season's fruit
! has been characterized by a standard
i of high prices throughout the season
that probably sets a national record
I for a year's strawberry harvest. lle
! ginning at $4.50 per crate tor the
; first car, a price of M has been main
tained. The W. R. Woolpert Fruit

crates, or 18 carloads. Hood River

The aborigines have discovered a

Dalles Chronicle. ,
There is considerable apprehension
among the farmers and stockmen
of this neighborhood over the water
shortage. The lake is very low be
cause of the continued lack of rain,
which will make It difficult to get
water to irrigate the second crop.
Many of the farmers are now working
night shifts at irigating. hoping by
this plan to get the crops In such
condition that they will make some
sort of yield, though they have no
water later on. It Is possible to get
water now, but if present conditions
continue much longer, the second
crop will be lost. Some of the far
mers in the outlying districts, where
irrigation Is impossible, have plowed
up their crops as they were already
ruined. Of course, a crop failure
will work a hardship on the stockmen
as well as the farmers. Joseph Her
ald. ' The farm bureau of Grafton coun
ty, N. H. Is demonstrating how such
an organization can help develop com
munity enterprises. The commun
ity chairman in Orford found that fif
teen farmers In his immediate vicin
ity owned pure-bred Berkshire hogs.
He felt that this was a good founda
tion for standardizing the swine of
the community, and asked the county
agent for assistance in strengthening
and extending interest in one breed.
He arranged a meeting at which the
county agent set forth the advantages
of communities specializing In one
breefl. As a result the farmers form
ed a breeding association and voted
to hold a sale of registered stock each
year. Many examples show the val
ue of a community breeding a certain
line of stock rather than each member
of the community proceeding along
his own individual line, says the De
partment of Agriculture.

UCH MAX POOR MAX"
SUPERB NEW PICTIRE
The thousands of admirers of de
lightful Marguerite Clark who hava
Been her "Bab" pictures, will be in
terested in the forthcoming presenta
tion at the Lyric theater tomorrow
and Saturday nights, of her latest
photoplay, "Rich Man, Poor Man," a
picturizatlon of Maxmillion Foster's
successful novel by Goorge Broad
hurst for Paramount release.
The story of this admirable picture
deals with the fortunes of Betty
Wynn, a charming girl, who after
many years spent in a boarding house
enters the home of John K. Bees
ton, a cold-hearted, selfish financier,
presumably as his gmirtchild. Al
though a rich m-in, Beefjton is a poor
n.an In everything else, for he loves
no one and every one despises him for
hM eccentricities and erratic Icinpra
mni. Betty brings love and sunshine in
to his life and ho ref:i..js to permit
her to leave him even after he discov
ers that she has been foisted upon
himself through the agency of a man
whose sole desira 1h to make Betty
unhappy. Betty is the central figure
in numerous thrilling scenes and fin
ally finds happinass In the love of a
young man who really is the grand
son of Beeston.
Miss Clark Is splendidly supported
y a large array of fine screen players,
chief among vhom are Frederick
Warde, the famous tragedian, Rich
ard Barthelmess, George Backus, Ot
tola Nesmith, Mary Davis and Augus
ta Anderson.
SOME GASOLINE PROBLEMS
Today much thought Is given to
the gasoline problem. Automobile
manufacturers as well as the oil pro
ducers and refiners realize that a
' shortage of gasoline will come unless
: new fields are discovered. In the
meantime they recommend that the
strictest economy be practiced in the
j use of gasoline and other petroleum
I products. The automotive engineers
jas well as the oil producers and refin
ers realize the seriousness of the gas-
oline problem and they are constant
ly bending every effort to devise auto
' mobile engines and methods of car-
! burlzatlon which will secure the op-
eratlon of automobiles on grades of producer. It lias been deterroliHd to
