' Have voa hesitated to buy Wells' 'Outline of History'?" asked an in terested publisher pointedly. Well. ves. to tell the honest truth we HAVE hesitated. You see, we know something about this H. G. Wells. For instance, we know that f;.r ten years he has been trying to tir up a civil var among friends and neighbors class war, with all its horrors of bitterness, bloodshed and brutism. We know that a year ago and two years ago, he was vaunting Bolshevism to the skies and begging the world to throw aside all law, all honesty and all civilization in favor of a svstem that has now been so thoroughly discredited in practice that the poorest intellect realizes its miserable failure. And so, when Wells dashes off a history of the world back to the remotest times, in a few weeks he had to spare from traveling in Russia we rather decided we diddn't have the time to spend on this book. We felt for one thing, that we preferred study, patience and scholarship in the hisorties we read such exhaustive study and patience, for instance, as is shown by Dr. James Rhodes, of Cambridge, who has been writing a history of the American people for 35 years and is not through yet. Then, for another thing, we feel that the truth is not in Wells nor in his works. Slats' Diary. By Ross Farquhar.

Pa answered & replyed that it was 1 sum thing like indiges- 1 tion furnicher. ma cud dent under stand what he ment. even I cud- dent neether. later he sed that is was over stuffed, he just had the name rong.

The only fruit of victory thev have is the huje indemnity that Germany ijl have to pay. For Germany to pay it. she must be prosperous and so all nations, except perhaps France, are trying to make her prosperous. Presently, she will become so pros perous, says Angell. that no other na tion w ill be able to compete with her. Then she w ill go to w ar again for her "old rights" and the world will be at each others' throats once more. Angell was a good prophet once: v. ill he repeat We hope not. But everything in the world todav makes that coming' armament conference of the most vi tal importance to a disgusted, heart-1 sickened humanitv. i Judging from comment in papers: we get and from what we hear the' state-wide tax tor the exposition is going to meet opposition. The opin ion is expressed that while the big fair w ill help the state it is a ques tion if it will be worth $3,000,000. Also it is being said that there are plenty of other profitable ways of spending $3,000,000 that might ben efit the state still more. It is a ques tion that voters may well be thinking over between now and next spring. We all had plenty of enthusiasm for the fair at first, but when we are asked if we have $3,000,000 worth of enthusiasm, we stop to think it over. Hermiston Herald. ........ .... Mr. and Mrs. John Fadberg, of Hepp ner Klat, were Heppner visitors Saturday. A Pacifist Prophet of War. Before the great war Norman An gell was known as the "greatest pa cifist"; he had written the best of an anti-war books, to which he gave the title The Great Illusion. The main contention in The Great Illusion was that wars are unprofit able even to the winner. Now Angell is out with another book called The Fruits of Victory, in which he shows that the prophecies in his former book were true to a hair. In his new book he attempts to prove that the victors of the recent world war won nothing except the name of victory.

There's no sub stitute for Camel quality and that mild, fragrant Camel blend. The fellow who smokes Camels, wants Camels. That's because Camels have a smoothness, a fragrance and a mildness you can't get in another cigarette. Don't let anyone tell you that any other cigarette at any price is so good as Camels. Let your own taste be the judge. Try Camels for yourself. A few smooth, refreshing puffs and you'd walk a mile for a Camel, too. R. J. REYNOLDS Tobacco Co. Wlnlton-Salem, N.
