uiie-thu-ii the potential water power of
the nation is to be found in the Col
umbia basin? 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

The Unknown God
W ;.!' ;. L'...j is.usl Athens he was
...M.id to :!. ni that luh, that
. , :n.t tui.ius. tliai tatur tlty a.
.t.vr ei ted to "The L'nkuott n God."
..;i.e.ia of tv.ia is richer and busier
;iui!i ancient Athens was, more splen
u.d. moi e luui u us. more immensel ,
i:uensOi preoccupied with itself. 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
