THE ALFALFA
Thti"LiKon of the Alfalfa," taken
from the Fat Oregoniun, is worth re
peating. Here it is: 1'eople often
"kick" about their unhappy lots and
imagine that they are much abused
and much burdened. They vvuil about
unfavorable environment and go into
hysterics over their forbidding sur
roundings. There is a lesson in two great, lux
uriant, flourishing beautiful alfalfa
plants, growing on a high, dry, sun
burnt hillside near the high school
grounds in Pendleton, which should
knock all the pessimism out of those
who look on these splendid specimens
in their forbidding environment.
All about them the hot sun has
shrivelled the "pig weed" and scalded
the life from the struggling dandelion.
The grass is withered, the rag weed
is sickly and pale and suffocating
ilust covers the ground. It is appar
ently more than a hundred feet to
water and all about these two rugged,
symmetrical plants is the waste and
desolation of a sun-scorched hillside.
But there they stand: green, luxur
iant, flourishing in spite of their sur
roundings. . They are heedless of the
dry hillside, unmindful of the wither
ed "pig weed" and dandelion curled
up in early death. They do not wilt
away and waste their strength in the
hot sunshine. They are rooted deep
in the faith of life, firmly planted and
lnoepenueilli 111 men iuiiuihjiuiu v...-
vironment and nothing checks their
growth. Their leaves are green while
...... . . .
independent in their inhospitable en
all about them is the desolation ot tne
hillside.
Here is a lesson ior unnappy men
and women. Here is an inspiration
for those who complain of their un
favorable environment. Here is a
living demonstration of one of the
.Dtaaf. trntha in human emerience.
- . I
Every human being is the master ol
its own destiny and can matfe or mar
its far. A na it chooses.
While all the world is complaining in
about you, keep your leaves green ana

House of Portland, whs re-elect-d f
the ensuing year. Among those
present were famous physicians and
surgeons from the East, while boll
Washington and Idaho 're repre
sctited by splendid delegations
The next meeting of the society w
be held in Seattle, ut the Alaok
Yukon-Pacific Exposition, jointly
with the ashington and Idaho
associations, and it is the purpose of
the medical men of the Pacific ortl
west to make that meeting one
the most imiKtrtant held in the
United States.
No state in the union is spreading
more high class advertising matti
than Oregon. The splendid booklets
issued to irresent the claims of Yam
hill county, Albany, and Linn county
(rants Pass, Kosehurg, Med ford anil
Ashland are Biijierior to thos(
issued bv the commercial bodies of
other stutes. Eastern Oregon is not
v
being neglected, and this character of
mlvcrtisimr cannot fail to have an
advantageous effect, and other Com
munities should see that their claims
are not overlooked,
Dayton has come into line with
the other live centers of Yamhill
county by organizing an active com
mercial club. Manager M. C. Lownes
dale, of the Yamhill county Develop
ment League, held a meeting there
the other night and raised $(550 for
advertising purposes.
Fortv-four different people com
peted for prizes offered by the Chorry
Fair at The Dalles, and there were
681 boxes of cherries on the tables
Albany college begins her first
annual summer bible school July 17th,
continuing until the 27th. Ine
speakers are from Oregon and six
other states. It is a new idea, an
out-door school.
fiountv Judire C. J. Trenchard, of
Astoria, suggests that the Oregon
n
Development League take up the
x - -
matter of good roads throughout
Oregon. The judge makes the sug
gestion that some capable men be
employed by the state to educate the
neonle of every community in the
commonwealth along these lines.
