Here they are: The first conflict between man and man was the. mere ex ertion of physical force, -unaided by auxiliary weapons his arm was his buckler, his fiat was his mace, and a broken ' head the catastrophe of his encounters. The battle of unas ;. ' sisted strength wastsucceeded by the more rugged one of ' stones and clubs, and war assumed a sanguinary aspect, As man advanced In refinement, as his faculties expanded, and his sensibilities became more exquisite, he grew rapidly more ingenious and experienced in the art of murdering . his fellow-beings. He invented a thousand devices to defend : and t0 assault the helmet, the cuirass, and the buckler, the sword, the dart, and the javelin, prepared him to elude the wound, as well ss to launch the blow. Still urging on, in the . brilliant and philanthropic career on invention, he enlarges V and heightens his powers of defence and Injury the Aries, :' . the Scorpio, the Ballsta, and the Catapulta, give a horror ' " and sublimity to wan and magnify its glory by increasing , its desolation. Still Insatiable, though armed with machinery that seemed to reach he limits of destructive Invention, and to yield a power of Injury commensurate even with the de- sires of revenge still deeper researches must be made in the diabolical arcana. With furious zeal he dives into the ' bowels of the earth; he toils midst poisonous minerals and deadly salts--the sublime discovery of gunpowder blazes . i. upoh the world and finally, the dreadful art of fighting by proclamation seems to endow the demon of war with ubl- - quity and omnipotence! This, indeed, is grand! this, Indeed, marks lhe powers of . mind, and bespeaks that divine endowment of reason which : . ', 'J distinguishes us from the animals, our inferiors. The un enlightened brutes content themselves with the native force which Providence has assigned them. The angry bull butts with his horns, as did his progenitors before him the lion, -' the leopard, and the tiger seek only with their talons and their fangs to gratify their sanguinary fury; and even the ; ' subtle serpent darts the same venom and uses the same . wiles as did his sire before the flood. Man alone, blessed with the invenilve mind, goes on from discovery to discovery enlarges and multiplies his powers of destruction; arrogates the tremendous weapons of Deity itself, and tasks creation to ; assist him In murdering his brother worm! Now we are going to postpone for a day or two the revela tion of the name of the author who wrote those paragraphs. Our readers are invited to guess or, indeed, to give the name if they know it. We think you will be surprised to learn who wrote the paragraphs and when. We'll tell you on Wednesday. , The Oregon Voter calls attention to a new method of re porting energy sales ty tne Bonneville administration, ex changes of power, according to the' Voter, are now classed as sales and that makes the volume larger than it should be. As deliveries shrink something has to be done, of course, to indicate that the volume is maintained ana! thus show a "need" for further power generation. As the facts become known it appears that the settlement of the soviet-Iran dispute so widely hailed last "week by the UN security council was merely a matter of semantics. The Oregonian says that the state .of,. Washington has no official tree That's probably the reason why the Washing ton mills are importing so many logs from Oregon. New Books ' .

Sometimes it's good 1 For 35 years it has been an accepted prac tice to change the oil in an automobile every 1,000 miles. With the motor oils we had before the war this was the only safe procedure. And the public had been told about it so long and so frequently, the habit was pretty well fixed. 4 If Union Oil had been n monopoly-private er governmental-we would probably have kept quiet. There's no incentive to go after more business when you already have it all. And when the customers are satisfied, the motto Of most monopolies is "Don't Rock the Boat."

Bulletin Classifieds bring results to make customers dissatisfied 2 During tha war, however. Union devel- s Oped , an oil that would last a good deal longer than 1,000 miles.

Should we advertise New Triton simply as a supe rior oil and let people go on changing it every 1,000 miles? Or should we give them the whole story and upset a buying habit that had been estaby lished for years? 6 Furthermore they proved once again that as long as there's room for improvement in an in dustry, the only way to guarantee maximum prog ress is to have an economic system that guarantees maximum incentives.
