It is true1 as Tom Richardson says, w e are hopelessly behind the times in the matter of A CtuDce For a suitable Com- If-actical Patriotism, mercial club home. Not a live town in the northwest puts up with such conditions as we do. Walla Walla has club rooms that re magnificent compared with what we have. Waltsburg a town about one-third the size of Pendleton has us beat a mile In this respect. So has Dayton. Washington. La Grande has gotten the entire top floor of a fine new hotel for Commercial club quarters. All the Willamette Taller towns now keep good Commercial club rooms. Corvallis has large and tastefully arranged rooms. Oregon City is modernly equipped in this re spect and one day each week the la dies may use the rooms. Med ford. McM innvUle, Albany and other places are up-to-date. Eugene recently se cured new Commercial club quarters and the rooms they abandoned were infinitely better than the Pendleton club rooms It is up to Pendleton to catch up with the procession or cease claiming to be a live, ambitions town. The cost of good, quarters is no bar to the im provement. It will be easier for the club to pay expenses in good rooms than in the present rooms. It will be easier -to pay high rent than to pay cheap rent, parodoxical as it sounds. Now that the sabject is up here and President Tallman is striving to bring the Commercial club up to the true Pendleton standard, help the move along. : Boost for Pendleton by helping place the Commercial dob : In true working shape.

No one contends Mr. Jack is not an honeet capable membe of the water commission. No one de nies he has heavy property interests here and has had investments here fr many years. No one denies this place has been his business head quarters for year, if not for a life time.

They will not merely cffend the farmers who live here but they will do something that will be resented by every business man and e' e-r Ir el resident of Pendleton. Why r.ot drop the obstructive work against the gravity system and let the town have a little peace? - -- m m There has been called to the atten tion of the East Oregonian a news story that appeared Justification in the Portland For Copperfield. Journal in Novem ber. It follows: -Baker. Ore.. Nov. 12. Contrary to expectations, the grand jury reporting last evening after a four-day session, failed to indict any of those against whom the efforts of Governor West's agents were directed in the local vice crusade. The jury reported it was not up to the county to handle, the cases, which were turned back, to the city officials." The story throws new light on the necessity for Governor West's action at Copperfield. Acting probably on the suggestion of their district attor ney the Baker grand Jury had refused tc indict men for violations of the state law. If they applied that prin ciple to Copperfield as it seems they did then they left the matter in the hands of two saloonkeepers, two bar tenders and one saloon swamper. Those officials enforced the law by selling liquor to 14 year old boys, by allowing gambling, by tolerating in cendiary fires and insults to decent people. Yet some people wonder why Gov ernor West resorted to strenuous methods to clean up Copperfield. He did It because the civil authorities through indifference or cowardice had made our laws a farce. The prospect of Irrigating the full 30 000 acres under the West Umatilla project Is looking up. First thing we know the entire country between here and Heppner Junction will be a vast Irrigation region. Pendleton should keep close to that country. Is Mr. Crawford's gubernatorial an nouncement an off hand view, a first thought opinion or a sure enough de cision, not to be changed after sup per? Hard work is always a good antidote for idle men. 4 Tom Richardson is a truth teller. BY THE SCISSORS -A WTttfEB LXD."

To the man without imagination the dancing ripples on the sunlit lake pre but agitations of the surface i the water, the level bars of sunset glory mean nothing but the descent of the upper limb of the sun below the hori zon. There have been those who saw in their country's flag only a bit of silk and bunting tied to a stick. Is to the few feet of striped and star red fabric that a loyal American bares his head when the flag goes by? Or does his imagination lay hold upon the great truths of human freedom and loyalty, and the tender memories of bravery and goodness all entwined with its fluttering folds? Klghtly understood, is not imagina tion a higher sense than sight and hearing as commonly conceived? II sees and hears more freely, is less de pendent upon conditions and. proper ly guided, reaches safer conclusions. It is an aid in the discernment of character, it supplements the inade quacy of mere eternal appearances. It holds before the eye of the crafts man the object he would make, it takes the drudgery out of manual toil and invests what are called mean tasks with the hope and luster of their noble motive. Jt opens the door Into the realm of poetry, of painting, of all forms of art It even enters into mathematical demonstration, as in picturing the objects of reasoning Imagination is much more than I mere fancy, or fantasy.

A good servant is imagination. Not dapted to governing it must be directed and dis ciplined, not obeyed. Five Don't for the Business Girl. Don't think when your employer cannot see you that there is no need to work. Don't sit with one eye on the clock and the other eye on your work. You will not be able to see either properly. Don't let the idea get into your head that you are indispensable. Only one person is that, and he is your em ployer. Don't tell any one outside the office what you have heard in it during the day. Don't think for one moment that any one in the office cares whether you are dressed in the latest style or not. How I lie Wind of FaiJiion Mows. Rusfcet brown, bronze gray, forester green and mahogany are modish colors of the season. They are particularly becoming to girls with reddish brown hair and bright complexions. There is a decided fancy for sets of everything the gown, scarf, muff and turban matching. Wasco Olcbratos Rlrtli.
