"The chief asset of Pendleton, like

h.ivs snl.l Sunt. .T. S Ijinders this
morning in speaking of the Men and!1'"0 lnnk.s .lulled
Religion Forward Movement, workers
for which are to ho'.d a convention
hero during the latter part of the
v eek "There are five departments
of work in "Tho Men and Religion
Forward Movement." Doubtless the
most promising, and that which
brings the greatest returns for the
effort expended is "The Boy Prob
lem." "Heretofore communities have
through their school systems endeav-
I ored to train the boys mentally and
have offered some religious instruc
tion through the church service and
the Sunday school. That the efforts
through these institutions have been
only partially successful is attested
by the necessity of periodical visits of
state juvenile officers to the differ
ent cities and rural communities of
the state, and to the constant activ
ity of those in charge of the work
with juvenile delinquents and other
youthful offenders of law and order.
An education that reaches only a
part of the life of a boy could hardly
be expected to secure other results.
The Boys' Work of "The Men and
Religion Forward Movement-' en
deavors to train the boy along four
distinct Unes: physically, mentally,
socially and spirituality, to develop a
well-balanced, efficient and strong
personality. The program at the
boys' banquet Friday evening and the
boys' convention on Saturday will be
the initial steps in this broader view
of training now being inaugurated in
many places throughout the country."
Peter Crockett, Chester Fee, Je.v
ell Roork, Claude Hampton, Arthur
Ferguson and other boys of Pendle
ton as well as several representatives
from outside towns will take part in
the programs. Lowden Jones of
Walla Waila will explain the work as
it is carried on there. He Is the boy
chairman of the committee in Walla
Walla. Besides the boys, three of
the specialists from Walla Wal'.a will
speak at the different sessions of the
convention, presenting various phases
(if the movement.

When she appeared at the local
marriage license bureau with the man
she was to wed she Informed one of
the deputy recorders that she did not
love the man and that he was not the
person represented to her.
As she explained it to an interpre
ter, it was a positive contrast to a case
of love at first sight. She said she
expected to see the "good-looking
chap" Indicated by the photograph,
but instead found that she had never
seen nor heard of this man before.
When she made this declaration, he,
too, protested, and the peculiar cir
cumstances could not bo untangled
until alter the recorder had summon
ed an official interpreter.
The would-be lover Is Milan Spear

argued with the little lass for fuliy a
half hour; but it was of no use. She
still persisted that she had been
wronged and refused to say the word.
As a climax to the situation a guar
dian has been appointed for the girl
and he was perfectly satisfied that tho
wedding should take place.
The license . was held up pending
further inquiry as to the maiden's
wishes.
