RESOLUTIONS OF RESPECT Whereas, It has pleased God, in His wisdom, to call from his earthly labor our highly esteemed brother, Septimus William Spencer, and wnereas, Brother spencer was a charter member of this lodge and for many years faithfully and consistent ly served this lodge as secretary, ex alted ruler and trustee and in many ways worked for the upbuilding ot tho Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, it is fitting and proper that we, as Elks, make fraternal and merited acknowledgment and record of the high esteem and fraternal love in which we hold him. Resolved, That while we humbly bow to the decree of the Exalted Ruler of the Universe we are filled with sorrow at the passing of our brother. Brother Spencer was a true Elk and tho virtues and principles for which the order stands were truly exemplified in his daily life than which no higher eulogy can be pro nounced. To the widow and other close rel atives of our departed brother we extend sincerest sympathy and con dolence. Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be spread upon the rec ords of this lodge, a copy be trans mitted to the widow of the deceased and copies be furnished the local press for publication. J.

The Union Pa cific System of railroads has 51,016 stockholders, according to a state ment issued today by C. R. Gray, President. Approximately 43 percent of the stockholders are women and most of the stockholders are persons of moderate means, says Mr. Gray. The average holding, according to the statement, is 63 shares of a par value of $100 each. No one person, firm, corporation or institution owns as much as two per cent of the ca tal stock, tho statement adds. Stock holders reside in every state in the Union and in Alaska, Canal Zone, Guam, Hawaii, Philippine Islands. "Thus," says Mr. Gray, "Union Pa cific stock, like a country's trade, follows the flag. This widesoead distribution conslusively answers the statement that the railroads are ownea ana controlled by a few per sons. To an extent not generally recognized, the railways are owned by the public. This subject comes home to every household when it is considered that life insurance policy nomers and savings bank depositors are partners in the operation and de velopment of our railways."

B. Ingles, county president of the union.

It was pointed out that the scale war, doubly advantageous inasmuch as it presets tho farmer and the man seeking employment. With a wago uniformity throughout the county, there will be no danger of having transient labor shift from one farm to another seeking higher wages.

Farmers and Stockgrowers National Bank HEPPNER, OREGON FORMER RESIDENT VISITS HERE 0 John Woodard, jr., son of a well known pioneer family of Heppner and Butter creek, was in town Satur day shaking hands with many of his old friends. Mr. Woodard is now living at Nyssa, Oregon, -where he is engaged in the sheep business. Times are none too good there, Mr. Wood ard says, the alfalfa farmers being pretty hard hit by the inroads of the alfalfa weevil on their meadows. The weevil is a sort of small maggot and there are literally countless millio of them. They draw the juice from the alfalfa plant thereby damaging thq quality of the hay. The only way to fight them is by cutting f first, crop early then let the grounn dry out before hp water Is again turned on and the dry hea,t kills them. Some farmers harrow the laud after the first cutting to bring the pesls to the surface where the hot sun soon puts them out of business.

IIBBIIIII IBIDBIBia Bl Margin Leave an ample margin between your income and your expenses. What you lose in immediate pleasure will be amply repaid in the sense of assurance and self-respect which go hand in hand with a good-sized bank account. Living on margin is diametrically op posed to the principle involved in buy ing on margin. The former is wise con servation, the latter is speculation. a in H B W hi n m ii a H M U M n First National Bank Heppner Ore.
