Why should I'lnatilla county and, adjoining counties put up with a shortage of oil and coal wheu at L'matiUa rapids a minimum of 120,. t'00 electric horse power may be devel oped? Why should this slate permit many thousands of acres of arid lands along the Columbia to go unwatered when the water and the natural energy for pumping that water at hand and ready for use? Some people think that the proposi tion of using the Columbia river for de velopment work is only a dream. That may be so but it is a dream that may be realized and engineers have already surveed the project and given an s timate on the cost. The project is less expensive and more feasible than the Columbia basin project in the state or Washington. The Washington project, which is being earnestly boied by Washir.gtunians and by many in Ore gon, will cost $300,000,000, it is said. The estimate on the cost of the Uma tilla rapids power plant is $20.50O,OO9. If the Columbia basin project is worth fighting for, as it doubtless is, why should Oregon hesitate about working for the John Day project and the use of the Columbia for reclaiming the lands in that project' The situation is a challenge and the ingenuity of our people. Shall we work the problem out or continue to vegitafe while Washington and California go forward because they have gumption and make use of it? Pendleton East Oregonian. The Unknown God W ;.!' ;.

The surface o life has never been so varied, so absorbing, diverting, distracting New impressions, new discoveries, new f.w is. come upon us so Quickl and th.cly that we have hardly time think or to feeh And this rusli of surface life has for a.any of us completely crowded God -ut. I'eihaps never in the world before , has there been so little sense or thought of the divine In common living In our education we try to teach .i 1 thousand things, things of supposedly uUal profit, things of practical daily usefulness. We are prohibited by law from teaching anything about God. What r'i or barbarous nation would not rind such a state of affairs gro testjue? God has left the hearth also. Where are family prayers, faithful readings of the Hible? They are gone and forgotten, and few of us know them any more. But we find God In the hurches still. Perhaps when the au tomobile takes us there and not else where. And even in the church the social tends more and more to override he sacred. We comfort ourselves with the thought that we are treating God with reverance; but often reverance Is angerously near oblivion. Can anything really take the place of God? Not speed, the perpetual rush of new inventions that hurry us faster and faster whither? Not money, the crowding emptiness of business, which throngs our souls with endless calcu lation and emulous struggle, only to leave them dull and unsatisfied. Not luxury, which merely makes ease and comfort and self-indulgence a habit and so in the end indifferent. Not ed ucation, which after- long years of tur bulent effort leaves us at best aware of what we do not know. Not even the splendid self-abandonment of living for for others; for how can we give others what we ourselves have not? And so the divine comes back and will come back, if the vastly growing world of democracy is to go on grow ing to perfection. As St. Augustine aid long ago in the words of profound beauty, "Thou hast made us to turn to Thee, and our hearts can find no peace until in Thee they are at rest" That is why so many of us today have re built in spirit, if not in fact, vrte ottt Athenian altar, "To the Unknown God " Youth's Companion.
