A GLIMPSE INTO THE FUTURE
In the February number of the American Magazine is an
interesting' article by II. G. Wells telling what he believes
will be the great development of the coming century. In a
note prefacing the article the editor of the, American de
scribes Mr. Wells as "not an idle visionary but a man of
vision which is a quite different thing." The editor bases
his opinion on the fact that in his writings Mr. Wells has
foreseen and foretold the irnention of several of the me
chanical wonders of recent years. "Without vision the
people perish." Our most wonderful inventions of recent
years had their beginnings in vision arising out of physi
cal and mechanical discoveries. To the writer it seems
strange that Mr. Wells should give as his conviction the
belief that in the physical field there will come no new
things for quite a loong while; that our new discoveries are
but the "blossoms of another spring whose harvest may
be hundreds of years away. The turbine engine was de
scribed nineteen centuries before it became of any utility,
also the primary properties of frictional electricity.
Mr. Wells then proceeds to forecast our future: As he
sees it the greatest promise in the science of the present
time centers about what is called psycho-analysis. All the
world is passing through a phase of exceptional disinteg
ration and reconstruction a state of affairs that will not
last. An application of the science of mental relationship
will change and modify things directly and profoundly and
this change is the most immediately probable thing before
our race today.
In 1880 the "common fool," as Mr. Wells designates the
man without vision, was quite certain that we should nev
er for the, to him; simple but all sufficient reason that no
one had ever done so and today the same type of individ
ual is incredulous about social, political and educational
developoment. It is possible, however, for those who have
faith and vision to foretell a new release of human life to a
secure and world-wide peace, to a sufficient and happy
production, ample to satisfy all normal human needs, to a
common life of activity and kindliness, to lively interests
enterprise and hope.

HEPPXER-LEXIXGTOX GAME
Another game for the Heppner
team, against an old rival too!
Heppner beat Lexington by a score
of 12 to 8 on Lexington's home
floor last Saturday night. The score
stood 4 to 2 In Lexington's favor in
the first half. It looked bad for
Heppner, but in the second half,
Brick Hall starred himself by his
floor work and basket shooting, so
that when the whistle blew for the
end of the third quarter, the score
was 8 to 7 in favor of Heppner. In
the last quarter, Lexington succeed
ed in making one point while Hepp
ner made four.
The players making the points
were: for Heppner, Doherty 4, Aiken
2; Hall 6; for Lexington, Shears 2,
Nichols 2, Morey 2, Carmichael 1,
Wright 1.
The Lexington boys again showed
their good sportsmanship. Of'course
they didn't like the idea of being
beaten by Heppner but outside of a
few, very little or nothing was said.
Both teams played a clean game and
fought hard to win, but Heppner
managed to come out on top. Lan
dreth of Pendleton refereed.
The line-ups were:
Lexington Shears, r. f.; Nichols,
1. f.; Morey, c; McMillan, r. g.;
Carmichael, 1. g.
Heppner Devine, r. f.; Doherty,
1. f.; Aiken, c; Moore, r. g.; Hall,
1. g.
Substitutes: Heppner Lee for De
vine, Cason for Hall; Lexington
Cox for Nichols, Nichols for Morey,
Wright for Carmichael, Nolan for
Wright. I
f ARM BVREAU RESOLITIOXS
At the county convention of the
Morrow County Farm Bureau held
at Lexington last Saturday the fol
lowing resolutions were adopted:
We, the undersignjed icommittee on
resolutions, beg to submit the follow
ing: Be It Resolved, by the farmers of
Morrow County, Oregon, in conven
tion assembled, being three hundred
farmers, in attendance, representing
900,000 bushels of wheat.
First. That we favor the McNary
Haugen Bill, believing that it will
afford early "relief to the wheat grow:
er, early and effective relief being
necessary to save the wheat farmer
from bankruptcy.
Second. That we can see in the
further extension of credits no relief
to the wheat grower, the majority of
whom are now laboring under as
great a burden of interest payments
as he can well afford to attempt to
carry, his need being some remedy
which will enable htm to obtain such
price for his product as will give him
a reasonable profit, this in turn en
abling him to reduce his indebted
ness and relieving him of the neces
sity of ask tog for extension of credit
Third. Since a protective tariff
has been made the means of securing
to other lines of Industry a profit
which was really remunerative, we
favor such a tariff upon wheat as
will save to the American farmer the
home" market, otherwise he should
not be required to pay in what he
purchases a tariff upon the things
which he must have in hia line o!
work, the farmers' position being
simply that we ask for what the Im
mortal Roosevelt styled "a square
deal" so far as tariff legislation 1.
concerned.
Fourth." That a copy of these res
olutions be sent to the President of
the United States, to each of our rep
resentatives and senators in con
gress, and to each-of the local pa
pers of the county.

Once again we Americans
honor the great Lincoln
whose trials and tribulations
in the days when this na
tion's fate hung in the bal
ance were of such momen
tous proportions as would
have "broken" many anoth
er man. Yet, Lincoln's con
stant Cheerfulness and his
utmost Confidence in the fu
ture carried his aims to a
successful conculsion.
Let's all try to emulate his
prtues. Let us move about
in our daily tasks with a
.Cheerfulness that bespeaks
our confidence in the future
and in the end we can not
1 help but succeed.
THEY CALLED HIM "HOXEST ABE"
Are you honest with yourself and your children if you fall to teach them
the principles of Cheerfulness, Economy and Thrift?
