'Richard Uoyd Jones Says:
Measure Your Greatness.
MERE family never made a great
man. Thought and dd, courage
and conviction, and not pedigree, are
past porta to enduring fame.
Great men are not supernatural;
thfy are the natural, the true men in
whom nature has succeeded. They
who fall shot of greatness are the
imperfect.
The great men are they who both
see the right and choose it, and hav
ing chofen, pursue it with invincible
resolution, resisting the temptations
of easier paths. It is they who point
out the way and by their example
show other.
Great men are unique only in that
they are uncommon and are conspic
uous by their contrast t the common.
In the panorama of time the great
men loom up like snow-capped peaks
above a range of hills. Each in its
solitude represents a great spirirtual
'orce rather than material tn:ce. The
great prophets and painters, preachers
and poets, musicians and patriots, all
stood for, fought for, lived for, and
died for, ideals.
All great potential powers have
come to us unheralded and unknown,
for there is nothing more simple than
greatness. The greatest men like the
greatest truths, are the simplest The
great man is what he is from nature
and he rises to his height of fame
without reminding us of others. It is
only the pretender who calls for con
trasts. However far above us the
truly great man may be, they always
make us feel that they are our broth
era.
No really great man ever thought
himself as great as he really was.
No man ever became great by imi
tation. A great man must give us
something new in thought or fact.
Great men never lose their childlike
heart. They give to the world a great
affection and it is this, when they are
gone, which the world keeps and holds
for them. Because great men possess
this passion to serve rather than to be
served, to give rather than to get, to
do something for the world, we find
great acta and great eloquence most
commonly going hand in hand.
The road to greatness is through
loas of self in the thought of all.

Rodeo A Good Tonic.
HEPPNER S second Rodeo is past;
it is now history. The old town
was awakened from its slumbers and
for three days put on the aspect of
a thriving metropolis, with the largest
crowd ever gathered in this city
thronging its thoroughfares. The
hearts of local citizens fluttered and
were exultant with pride as everyone
was given a complete relaxation from
their toils and made merry.
Things moved along a little slowly
on Thursday, the first day, but as the
crowds increased the following two
days the spirits of all rose to the oc
casion and a tremor of anticipation
ran through the throng. The show in
the arena improved after the opening
day, events being handled with more
precision, and the moments became
more tense, as time between acts was
shortened.
Excitement reigned Friday as one
accident after another threatened ex
termination of the performers. It
was certainly a "Jonah" day. It
hearkened back to the days of the
gladiators when man-killing stunts
amused the pop u We, and seemed not
unlike the notorious Spanish bull-,
fighting fests. It may be that there
yet remains some of the instinct in
our blood that prompted the Roman
and inspires the Spaniard. The laugh
ing and cheering on the occasion of
one of the worst accidents, would
leave one to believe that we have not
yet passed the stage where pleasure
is derived from seeing a human in
agony. We hope this heritage of a
former day is not what prompts us
to put on a Rodeo instead of a county
fair. The accidents were not taken

gloriously by all, however, and served
more as a damper than a draft oa
the exhibition, which proves wa are
somewhat more humane in our sen
timents than the ancient Romans, at
least.
A feature of the occasion was the
noticeably good behavior of everyone
for the amount of moonshine in evi
dence. A little extra hilarity was
produced at times, which was proba
bly thought to be necessary to carry
out the "she's wild" sentiment, but
taken all in all there was very little
unruly conduct, and the Sodeo can
be said to be a success for a show
of its kind.
The thing that appealed to us most
of all was to see the town brought up
to double-quick time by the large
number of visiting country people,
all of whom had a broad smile and a
little money to spend, marking, we
hope, tha return of better days for
Morrow county.

Bj REV. M. A. MATTHEWS,
D. D., L. L. D.
Extravagance.
Extravagance is a prolific source of
dishonesty. Extravagance may be de
fined aa a foolish expense, or expense
disproportionate to one's means.
Such extravagance may be found in
all grades of society, but it is chiefly
apparent among the rich, those aspir
ing to wealth, and those wishing to
be thought affluent. In other words,
it is the overreaching of social am
bition, imagination and competition.
In order to make a social demonstra
tion the young man spends, borrows,
steals in order that he may keep up
appearances. When the young man
goes beyond his legitimate income to
purchase theater boxes, and finance
automobile parties, frequent golf
links and other places where the idle
and indifferent congregate, he is both
mentally and morally dishonest.
- The man who tries to appear to be
something which he is not is a social
thief. In order to keep that appear
ance before the public he has to ac
tually steal. In fact, extravagance,
which is the expenditure of money
unnecessarily, and the expenditure or
money beyond the realms and boun
daries of legitimate incomes, is but
another word for larceny; trying to
steal public opinion and therefore
stealing the money of others in order
to perpetuate the show.
Some are ambitious of fashionable
society, and will gratify their vanity
at any expense. The victim is strait
ened for money; without H he must
abandon his rank; for fashionable so
ciety remorselessly rejects all butter
flies which have lost their brilliant
color. Therefore, the young man who
is extravagant and ambitious must
choose between honesty and mortify
ing exclusion, or gaity purchased by
dishonesty.
The extravagant person is dishonest.

Over 13,000,000 Autos
Washington, Oct. S. Ther is no
sign of a let-up in the purchase of
motor vehicles, according to the Bu
reau of Publie Roads. During the
first six months of 192S there was a
registration of 764.052 motor cars
and trucks. This rate of increase Is
about the same as that which haa pre
vailed since 1916.
The registration in 1916 was 3,512,
996 motor cars and trucks. On July
1st, this year, the total registration
of motor vehicles was 13,002,427. Of
this number 11,671,181 were private
passenger cars.
The increase in registration of mo
tor vehicles is providing a handsome
fund for road improvement. The total
revenues obtanied from such regis
tration amount to over $167,000,000
annually, and of this $135,000,000 is
applied to public highway construc
tion and maintenance.
Gasoline tax is also getting to be a
very important source of revenue for
highway improvement. During the
first half of the year, gasoline taxes
in the sum of $8,670,000 were collect
ed, of which $5,000,000 was applied
to public highway work. The revenue
from this source will materially in
crease during the last half of the
year, due to the fact that several of
the states enacted gasoline taxes early
in the year to take effect July 1st, or
at some later date.
SILENT PRESIDENT POPULAR.
President Coolidge's reticence Is
popular. The country has been suffer
ing from an overdose of talk. The
World war was accompanied by a
veritable language debauch. After
the war the world was victimized by
the phrase makers and the theoretical
elocutionists. People everywhere are
coming to the conclusion that mere
talk will not get them everywhere.
They are becoming partial to the man
who takes time to accumulate some
well-enosidered thoughts before op
ening his mouth. If half the time
now spent in talking were utiUxed in
thinking the world would get on fast
er in the right direction. National

SUPPRESSION OF SECURITIES.
Federal suppression of fraudulent
securities is a needed reform. There
is no more reprehensible method of
discouraging thrift and legitimate in
vestment than the mulcting of people
through the marketing of fake se
curities. This method of robbery has
been carried to the point where it
constitutes a menace to the public
and to legitimate investments. One
of these fake concerns recently stole
fifty million dollars from the pockets
of small investors in a single Middle
Western state. Local governments are
not strong enough to meet this men
ace. The strong arm of the national
government should take hold of it.

It isn't what you pay but what you get in
lubrication that counts. Thousands of labors

oils and greases reduce friction and wear to a
greater extent than any other motor lubricants

Zerolene oils form on an average jot less
carbon than other motor oils. They form less
carbon than any other motor oils known to us.
And because Zerolene gives better lubrica
