While there may have been
ground for criticism of Pendleton
in other respects, it finds in war
work a laudable field for its genius
for achievement . Pendleton is un
sparing with its money, brains
and energy and is the county's nat
ural and legitimate leader. Prac
tically as a unit, Weston is willing
to follow Pendleton's leadership in
Rod Cruss activities which fact is
indicated by 'the action of this
town's commercial club.
