EX PEA von.
"What hast thou for thy scatter
ed seed,
O Sower of the plain?
Where are the many gathered
sheaves
Thy hope should bring again?"
"The only record of my work
Lies in the buried grain."
"O Conqueror of a thousand
fields.
In dinted armor dight!
What growths of purple ama
ranths Shall crown thy brow of
might?"
"Only the Blossom of my life
Flung widely In the flight."
"What is the harvest of thy
saints,
O God, who dost abide?
Where grow the garlands of thy
chiefs,
In blood and sorrow dyed?
What have thy servants for
their pains?"
"This only to have tried."
By Julia Ward Howe.
SIIFX THIS HABIT.
Of all undesirable citizens about the
worst Is the man who buys everything
he can through mail order houses
rather than from his home merchants.
In every town there are some such
people. They exist regardless of how
extensive may be the stocks of the lo
cal merchants and regardless of the
prices charged by the latter. Pen
dleton unfortunately has a few "mall
order" cranks.
There are people In this town who
foolishly send to Chicago and else
where for articles which they buy,
without seeing them, at prices fully
as high, when freight is considered, as
they would be charged In this city.
This is not good business on their
part It would be far better for them
to patronize their home stores. They
would then know exactly what they
were getting; they would have the
merchants guarantee back of the
goods and in case of dissatisfaction
the trouble could be readily adjusted.
No such consideration is ever received
from mail order houses. The man who
buys from a mail order house takes
a chance at getting something he
wants. If he gets what he wants al
right; otherwise he is a lser-
But aside from the fact that you
can get better service from your home
merchants there are other reasons
why you should give them the benefit
of your trade. The success of your
town depends more upon the amount
of business done by your merchants
than UDon anything else. When the
merchants do well the town has a
progressive air and there la advance
ment in every line. The merchants
pay taxes that support local Institu
tions; they contribute to all worthy
causes; they assist new industries and
are always working for the advance
ment of the city. In order to do this
they must be patronized. By every
consideration of Justice and also as a
matter of common buslners policy
they are entitled to your patronage.
Down with the mall order habit.
NOVEMBER 1910.
Commenting upon the closing of
the Eastern Oregon normal school the
Salem Capital Journal had the follow-
lng:
"Daniel Webster lamented over tie
sacrifices of poor little Dartmouth
"There Is something peculiarly pa
thetlc in the tragedy of an educational
Institution.
"The first of the three Oregon Nor
mal Schools the one at Weston has
been formally If not finally closed.
"By donations of citizens the senior
class was able to be hurriedly gradu
ated. An obligation of honor by the
legislature has been repudiated.
"But the closing act in the educa
tional drama was carried out decently,
and in good order, and with all due
-UNION :eS, LA gEU
formalities.
"The alumni met with larger aC
ttndanco than ever had their ban
quet, there were the sermon, class
play, orations, soiirs, valedictory, di-
plomas, benediction, farewells,
"There was a tremulo effect in Pres
ident Franch's voice ns ho spoke the
Inst words to the class, telling them
the school stood for kindness, for do
ing good to others, for the principle
of the vicarious life. ,
"Two gentlemen of njpilest abilities
delivered addresses of appreciation,
from the outside world.
"Trunks were packed, tickets bought
the faculty scatters, books and pic
tures are put away, an Inventory Is
tnken by the state, padlocks put on,
end all placed in charge of a care
taker. "Thus ended the chronicle of the
one backward step In the march of
Oregon's development."
But while the Immediate future
locks dark for the Eastern Oregon
normal there is hope ahead. The
school may yet be saved by an ap
peal to the people under the Initi
ative. Instead of moaning over the
present situation the alumni and
friends of the school should be busy
wlth plans for presenting the merits j
of the school to the people of the
state at the next election. The nor
problem" has not yet !
mal school
been settled. It will be settled In No
vember 1910.
KEEP IT GOING.
In placing the $500 received from
the woolen mill site into a park fund
the city council took a wise step. The
action shows that the mayor and
councllmen realize the need of parks
li this city and are ready to estab
lish them as soon as possible. With
the 1500 to start with It would seem
that something might be accom
plished at once.
This city may easily establish a
number of small parks in localities
where they will be convenient of ac
cess. The old north siae cemetery
may be converted into a plaza or park
that will be a credit instead of a dis
grace to the city. Tlie old academy
giounds on East Webb street may be
made into a very nice outdoor resting
place.
Then the little island opposite the
Pendleton academy grounds might be
secured for park purposes. Certain It
U that with some improvement It
could be made Into a delightful spot.
It would be a splendid place for plc-
ics, band concerts and for a por-
on of the fourth of July festivities.
At this time a park system stands
ao Pendleton's greatest need. Every
ear the need becomes more Impera
tive. A plan whereby some sort or
park facilities may be secured' for the
city must be worked out soon. By
placing the 1500 in the park fund the
ccuncll has made a start. Keep the
good work going until the parks are
established.
The Washington legislature has been
called together not to rectify a mis
take but to hear some reports regard
ing officials, some of whom are In
lall. others under indictment while
others are merely under "clouds."
James J. Hill says that he cannot
build any branch roads in Oregon but
that he thinks some roads are badly
needed. All Oregon gets Is "sym
pathy."
The old Columbia Is getting high
and promises to duplicate the record
It made in 1894.

THE tl'lSOX IUVER.
The Hudson river consists of two
strips of advertisements as far as the
eye can reach, Inclosing a body of
water filled with tug boats, mlcrnbes
and floating folks of other descrip
tions. Henry Hudson first discovered this
famous river on his way to Troy to

Point, started a parade ground, and
then rested at Albany, where he
opened a bureau of franchises other

Xo doubt in the near future the
Hudson will be used as a race course
for aeroplanes. At present It Is oc

PATTI AXD KIXG EDWARD.
In London one year, when, the sea
son was unusually long, says Adellna
PattI, I well remember an amusing
Incident connected with the then
Prince of Wales, now King Edward
vrr.
His royal highness having been per
suaded that Jealous feeling would be
aroused in the breasts of rival prima
donna if they sang the wrangling trio
from "II Matrlmonio Segreto,'
thought of having a joke at their ex
panse, and so caused Lucca, Nilsson
and myself to receive an Invitation to
sing that piece. I, however, believed
I could guess the prince's intention
and arranged a counter plot with my
colleagues,, which succeeded perfectly.
At the matinee at Marlborough
house we three conspirators drawled
out the trio with such mournful,
stolid faces that the whole audience,:
with their humorous and royal host
at their head, stared dumbfounded at
the automatic trio.1 Selected.

ELIMINATING DEATH.
National efficiency depend: partly
on natural resources; partly on the
integrity of soc)nl institutions, partly
on human vitality, und Is a r.'uctlon
against the old fatalistic creed' that
deaths Inevitably occur at a constant
rote.- The new mottt Is Pasteur's,
"It is within the power of man to rid
himself of every parasitic disease."
Longfivity varies In different tiine
and' places. Tho aventge length of
life in Denmark and Sweden exceeds
50 years; In India it falls short of 25.
In lSurope it has increased In' 350
years from less than 20' to over 40
years. In Massachusetts, In less than
half a century, It has insreased five
years. As longevity Increases, mor
tality decreases. The death rate in the
"registration area" of the United
Status is 18.5 per thousand; in Indlh
It is about 42 per thousand.'. In Euro
pean cities it varies from 16 to 40,
The death rate has been decreasing
during -several centuries. Ire the si-v-enteoiitlv
and eighteenth centuries it
was 40 to- 5, and during tho- past pe
riod rose as high as SO. It is now
15. In Harona the death rate after
American occupation fell fi-om over
SO to -aboutc 20. The greatest reduc
tions' have been effected among chil
dren. The mortality beyond tlie age of
50 years has remained stationary.
Special disease have decreased, such.
as tuberculosis, which is now one
third us prevalent as two generationB
ago; typhoid' fever, which in Munich
after the elimination of cess pi-ols. de
creased 97 per cent, and In Laurence;
Mass., after tfie Introduction of a pub
lic watvr filter, decreased over 80
per cent. Smallpox has practically
disappeared since vaccination was em
ploved and yellow fever since its mo
squito origin has been known. Am
