PLAMD BY SCHDQ
Legion and Auxiliary
Enjoy Pleasant Party
The American Legion Auxiliary met
on Tuesday evening, May 3, with 35
)n attendance. The members of the
Post were guests. Four new mem
rers were initiated. We very much
regretted that the fifth was unable
to be present. We now need only
one more member to complete tha
quota assigned us for this year, and
hope we may secure that one before
convention time.
The officers put on the initiatory
work in a very creditable manner, all
having their parts well memorized
Mrs. J. D. Bauman, who is chair
nan of the Fidac Committee, read
a splendid paper on the history and
aims of the Fidac organization.
Mrs. Cohn, chairman of the Hospi
tal Committee, read a very appre
ciative letter from Mrs. Weber,
thanking the Unit for the generous
check sent to "Sparky" Enders for
his scarf.
We had the pleasure of listening
to an instructive talk by Professor
Burgess on the history of govern
ment, taking it from the very be
ginning, and showing how our own
government has been developed. He
1'ointed out the fact that our nation
has made a comparatively rapid rise
to fame and superiority among na
tions. The Unit certainly owes Mr.
Burgess a vote of thanks for giving
us this interesting talk.
Harold Cohn, just returned from
a trip to Portland, told of stopping
at Hood River to attend a big Le
fcion meeting of 150 Lcgionnaireo on
Monday evening. Arthur Murphy,
state commander; Carl Moser, state
ndjutant; Kenneth Cooper, regional
director of the veteran's bureau, and
Dr. Scliwackhammer, who is in chr.rge
of veteran's hospital No. 77, were
at this meeting. There was also a
meeting of the American Legion Aux
iliary at the same time, and Harold
suid he was much impressed by the
spirit of close cooperation between
the Legicn and Auxiliary. He 'aid
he never fully understood the work
of the Auxiliary until he heard it
so well explained by Mr. Cooper, who
Reid in part that the government has
authorized the expenditure of over
$1,000,000 for the disabled veterans
in the state of Oregon. This supplies
the bore necessities, all regulation
material, such as bandages, etc. Any
ihing apart frcm this ii supplied by
the Auxiliaries. Mr. Cooper said that
he had learned that no man can ade
quately supply hospitalization, that
these extra comforts need the touch
of a woman's hand. He said the in
fluence which the Auxiliaries hnve
over these veterans is plainly shown
on visiting day, wnen the whole mor
ale of the hospital is rcvivtd because
the inmates feel there is someone
who is personally interested in them.
This again is noticeable in the slump
which conies on the day alter visit
ing day Both Dr. Schwackhammer
and Mr. Cooper urged and invited
anyone interoNt;d to visit and inspect
the hospital at any time they might
be in Portland.
Harold hid the pleasure of meet
ing Mrs. Herschner, the state prer-
u!ent of the American Legion Auxil-
ary, who sent her kindest regards
to the Unit at Heppner and expressed
her thanks for the work we have
done.
After the business meeting, appet
izing refreshments were served by
the following hostesses: Carolyn
Johnston, Vivian Kane, L'ucile Mc
Atee and Frances Morse. A delight
ful evening closed with the members
grouped about the piano joining in
singing the old war songs which
were so popular 10 years ago.

Don't Forget Intelligence.
He Had Ambition.
Too Much Muscle.
Choose His Wars.
"There is no life save in proteins."
Wise chemists, gathered at Richmond,
Virginia, say it and add, "environ
ment and chemical agency are the
dominant factors of life."
That may be true, and still you
need not accept "the chemical con
cept of the origin and development
of life."
If inhabitants of another world.
where machinery is unknown, should
study an automobile supplied with
gas and electricity and running, they
would say, "No life in this machine
without gas. Iron, gas and electric
ity are all of that automobile.'
They would overlook just one little
thing, namely, the INTELLIGENCE
that put the gas, electricity and steel
together, mounted them on pneumatic
tires and set them going.
So it is with life. Explain it as
you please, but don't forget the IN
TELLIGENCE back of it.
We are proud of our national pros
perity and high wages. Bootleggers
are even prouder of their prosperity
and high wages. This is shown by
Norman Klein, an investigator. One
rum-running syndicate could afford
o invest $10,000,000 and to pay men
on their rum-running crews $50 a
night for a good deal less than eight
hours' work. One man tells how he
used to get only $30 to $37 a week.
"but I was ambitious," says he, "so
they put me on a runner, and I got
$50 a night."
He worked on the "converted sub
haser SC-217," Uncle Sam thus sup
plying the rum-running boat at bar
gain prices. There is nothing like
ambition.
Hay will be cheap this year on the
farms, for crops will be heavy. After
ne farmer sells and jobber gets the
hay, prices will change. Late plow
ing will be delayed and wheat grow
ers worry about a too heavy "top
rowth."
Wheat grown suddenly too tall falls
Lefore high winds or heavy rains, and
'htletic young gentlemen, please no
tice: When the wheat stalk is over
developed, the head of the wheat con
taining the grain is feeble. Too much
straw means too little wheat.
And too much muscle means too lit
tle brain.
Unless inhabitants are misinform
ed, the Western mind runs to peace
ful philosophy. The Joplin News
Herald says, "As to street signs, read
'em and leap." And the Richmond
Missourian quotes a philosophical
lady as follows: "Kissing is about
to be carried so far that every lady
is likely to get so tired of it that it
may go utterly out of fashion."
The St. Joseph (Mo.) News-Press
says: "The girls have responded
nobly to the appeal for the observ
ance of paint-up week."
A negro applying for admission to
a Government training camp is told
by the War Department that rules
make it impossible to admit him.
Regulations say colored men must en
list in colored regiments. Camps for
colored young men will be established
which may solve the problem.
However, if whites have the right
to decide in what regiments and
camps colored young men may enroll,
it would seem only fair to let the
colored young men decide in what par
ticular wars they would be enrolled.
Jacob Wassermann, able German
novelist, author of "The World's Il
lusion," can "find no happiness in
this country." He calls Chicago's in
dustrial life "intensely depressing."
Chicago industrial workers might
call Mr. Wassermann's life intense
ly depressing. The prairie dog in his
little village may be as happy as Na
poleon looking up at the pyramids.
The prairie dog doesn't have to go to
it. Helena.
Napoleon crossed the Alps in Win
ter and told those that complimented
him on the "great achievement":
"Winter is the best time to cross; the
snow does not slip. I deserve credit
only for not believing fools who said
IT COULD NOT BE DONE."
MOTHER'S DAY.
Mother will be honored at the ser
vices on Sunday at the Church of
Christ. The morning sermon will be,
"The Ideal Mother."
At eight o'clock the Christian En
deavor young folks will put on a pag
eant in honor of mother. There will
be three scenes and appropriaate
"mother" songs will be sung. It is
hoped that many will avail themselves
of the opportunity of witnessing thia
pageant.
The evening sermon will be the sec
ond one of the "Bible" series snd
will be entitled "Difficulties in the
Old Testament."
Bible sclihool and Christian En
deavor as usual.
Wear a flower in honor of Mother.
MILTON W. BOWER, Minister.
