AN OPEN LETTER TO PRINEVILLE PEOPLE Have you ever stopped to consid er the silent eloquence of the em pty pew. It speakes of your duty and privilege to share with us the inspiration and delight of the' church service, the music, the sing ing, the association and the sermon which helped others and sent them cut a better man or woman might just as well have thrilled you also. If you made it your business to fill an empty pew it would yield a net gain to all. It would improve the sermon which can never be better than the congregation. No minis ter can fill the pulpit of a half filled church. That empty pew acta as a short circuit. He cannot throw the current of interest across it. Every empty pew could be filled every Sunday without the expendi ture of a single extra cent and with infinite profit. Sermon, music, warmth, are all supplied whatever the attendance. As a matter of economics, success here is certainly cheap, failure Is expensive. There is nothing in the church so extravagant as the empty pew. It costs as much to preach to wood as folks, and pays nothing back. Fill the pew, and you have not only given but you have gained. Now the sole cost to you of mak ing the services more inspiring, the music more charming, the fellow ship wider, the atmosphere more congenial, is a little extra energy on your part to see that the empty pew is filled. Sincerely yours, M. R. GALLAHER. GET-TOGETHER MEET AT POWELL BUTTE Members of the Christian church of Prineville came out Sunday and held a communion service with grandma Spray at the C. M.

Industries of Oregon cannot be expected to grow and furnish continuous satisfactory em ployment to the worker of Oregon if we spend our money for products manufactured else where. It is a well known fact that on the whole, Ore gon worker are receiving better wage and working under more . satisfactory condition than is true of the worker in many of the eastern center where a good deal of the prod uct that the careless purchaser buy come from. It is the height of tupidity and elfish lies to demand decent working condition from the Oregon employer and then turn around and use the money earned in Oregon to buy product made under weat-hop condi tion that exit in many of the eastern and mid dle state.
