Foreign Advertising Representative AMERICAN PRESS ASSOCIATION STOP SIGNS FOR CITY. IT IS not a far cry to the horse and buggy days, yet, only this week a run-away team on the streets of Portland was considered of news importance enough to justify a front-page story of the event in the Morning Oregonian. Automotive power has so completely replaced horsepower that only occasionally down on Front street may one see a relic of the many horse drawn drays and other conveyances of for mer days. When this now uncom mon, but once very common, event occurred the report says nearly everyone in the vicinity was at tracted to the scene. The run away team was doing all of 10 miles an hour. Automobiles by the hun dreds shoot past at 30 or more miles and get not so much as a casual glance. Cities some time ago were faced with a momentous traffic problem as the number of automobiles in creased, and horsepower rapidly faded to be mentioned with a glam orous past At the same time a more gradual change has been tak ing place in the rural districts, un til now in country as well as city horsepower is the uncommon rather than the common method of trans portation. In town every other family has its automobile, while few indeed are the farmers who do not have a car. Trucks deliver as many as three and four loads of wheat or wool to the warehouses in a day where before it took two days to transport one load with horses and wagon. And with the change has come the traffic problem to the smaller towns. Stop signs to be erected in Heppner in the near future are mute recognition of the city of the arrival of a new era in transporta tion. They are one of the neces sary adjuncts of the automobile. Now, in town, as in city, automotive vehicles must be stopped to safe guard numan me. Some folks may smile at the men tion of such need for traffic regula tion in Heppner. They wouldn't smile if they happened to be mak ing the turn in a car at the inter section of Main and May streets at the time a loaded wheat truck was coming in off Heppner hill, never less than 30 miles an hour. There isn't the congestion to be sure, but the same danger is present to be guarded against. One accident thus prevented will be worth many times the cost of taking the precaution. A state law makes it compulsory for any vehicle to come to a dead stop before going onto a state high way. The Main street of Heppner is a state highway. It will be well for everyone to keep this in mind and heed the stop signs. ARE STUMP SPEECHES PASS ING? IN YEARS gone by the stump speaker played an important part in national political campaigns. Candidates went on the road and took the stump in cities and towns from coast to coast. Is the radio going to rob us of the good old po litical meetings? Now a candidate can sit comfort ably before a microphone and with one speech reach millions of per sons throughout the country by means of the gigantic radio "hook ups" now used in the reporting of The Fumble WMWtiv- u&n F-Kiniicu nrM aevou sweetheart- thsee- "Hi WVA'Z PSq XZrv SUGG" AIN'T NUTUIM' I WOULDN'T f-7- &mm (undying. 7ft big events over the radio. What a difference between this method of reaching the public and the method of addressing many comparatively small groups of per sons, one after another, day after day and week after week! Radio has already carried count less speeches of a political nature over the air, and it seems very like ly that from now on until the No vember elections the radio will be used extensively by politicians to get their messages over to the pub lic. One difference between stump speaking and radio broadcasting, as far as political speeches is con cerned, is that while the main at tendance at political gatherings is made up of many friends and ad mirers of the orators, the radio reaches friend and foe alike. Another tiling which must be con sidered is that stump-speaking and radio broadcasting each have their own technique. Of what use in ra dio broadcasting are the quick changes of feature, the waving of arms, the gesticulations that play so large a part in increasing the ef fectiveness of stump speeches? Ra dio requires a different technique; the voice must do everything. Time will tell whether the radio will take place of the stump; wheth er public men will in the future turn to it or from it when desirous of making public utterances. THE LAST JINX DAY. FRIDAY, July thirteenth, will be the last Jinx Day of the year. For some reason, Friday, the thirteenth, has been regarded as a particularly unlucky day. This su pertitison has hung on where many have been forgotten. Not so long ago there were hundreds of super stitions, and all were implicitly be lieved. Now, with the masses more generally educated, there are fewer superstitions and fewer persons take any stock in those that are left. At one time a man was sure hard luck would come his way if a black cat crossed his path or if he hap pened to walk under a ladder. And sometimes hard luck did come his way, but it really was not the black cat or the ladder that was responsi ble. It was his own mental atti tude. Expecting disaster, he met it! A great sign of progress is the lessening of superstition! And one of the strongest of these' old super stitions is that one which pertains to Friday, the thirteenth. At one time many people would not take chances or make investments or get married on Friday, the thirteenth. They seemed to think it was a day of calamity a Jinx Day. Make up your mind on Friday, the thirteenth, that it is not differ ent from any other day. It's the mental attiude that counts. When Friday, the thirteenth, comes around, there are many people, no doubt, who will watch their steps pretty closely. One consolation they are greatly in the minority! THE INDIVIDUAL MUST RE MAIN PARAMOUNT. The Manufacturer. THE open secret of the greatness of America is expressed perfect ly at the end of Lincoln's famous Gettysburg address "Government of the people, by the people, for the people . . . ." At the basis of all we have done, all our achievements and prosperity, is that definite principle of govern ment In the beginning, the United States was created by men to whom monarchy, the Divine Right of Kings, all the freedom-stifling au tocracy of the Europe of that time, was abominable. They established a great country on the doctrine that the people were entitled to freedom, liberty and the right to organize their own govern ment and society. The iron heel of Imperialism was abolished and the great experiment, Democracy, became a reality. The qualities which had lain dor mant in a subjugated people ad venturousness, vision, the urge to progress and invent and perfect came splendidly to life. With mag nificent energy and intelligence a comparative handful of citizens set themselves to the grim reality of developing a great country whose possibilities, resources, and even physical boundaries and character Family A MATTER OF LIFE AND DEATH Sr. Iffrmtk draw ap: AN INTERNATIONAL BUGABOO. One of the most persistent international bugaboos, a principal cause of the senseless race for armaments, not to say one of the causes of war, is the notion that seems to be popular in every country that diplomats of every other country are deep, sly, cun ning fellows, while the diplomats of our own country are babes in innocence and childlike trustfulness. Much was said of President Wilson being deceived and hood winked by the deep and crafty representatives of other govern ments at Paris. It has always been my suspicion that President Wilson and his advisors were about as shrewd as any of the others. Somehow it pleases us to think that the statesmen of Europe are oily, trieny Metternichs and Talleyrands, while our own states men are merely Sunday School teachers from Kokomo, Indiana. We are bluff, hale and frank, while the people of other nations are crafty and shy. I was once in a boat sailing along the coast of Japan. My daughter exclaimed, "What a beautiful coast line!" One of the party replied, "Yes, but the Japanese are tricky." Even a coast line must have some deep and sinister significance. There are doubtless bad and devious people, also nations, in this world, but the world is never going to get along well until we learn to trust each other. This was the teaching of Christ and he was about the most adult-minded of human beings. "He who trusts everybody will probably be bitten," said Spur geon, "but he who suspects everybody will be devoured." Sometime ago a man wrote a book I think he was from Ar kansas called "My Neighbor Is Perfect." The book showed how human knots could be untangled by simply trusting your neighbor. It is a long step in the dark to get the habit of trustfulness, but it is a good habit to form, nevertheless The Golden Rule is all right, but it needs an amendment To the advice, "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you" should be added the supplement, dare to do it first To get along well with your neighbors requires after all a lot of daring, more courage than to quarrel with them. It is easy to be suspicious and captious and touchy. It is hard to be trusting. But it pays. istics, were but vaguely understood. A little more than 150 years later, we are the heirs of their herculean accomplishments. All their dreams, aspirations and triumphs have been given to us. It is our place our duty to see that our inheritance is carried on toward that ultimate perfection they envisaged. The past greatness of America, the past accomplishments, came from unhampered individualism that used its intelligence and in itiative for the benefit of the peo ple as a whole, with the assistance of a government that was the true voice of the people. The future achievements and yet unconceived greatness of America must stand on the same basis free dom of the individual to progress and realize to the limit his possi bilities. Only with that doctrine uppermost, can industrial and bus iness greatness be created and maintained. There must be no departure from government of, by and for the peo ple. There is no place in this coun. try for paternalism or radicalism. The individual must remain .para mount or we have failed. RURAL DEVELOPMENT UN DERGOING GREAT CHANGE. IN ITS 45 years of existence, the electric industry has reached not only every urban community of any importance in the United States with light and power service, but rural electrification on a national scale is today an accepted fact. On January 1, 1927, the National Electric Light Association estimat ed that 350,000 farms received elec tric service from utility company distribution lines. Electricity illuminates the farm house, barns, garage, poultry houses and other buildings, heats the in cubator and water for animals and poultry during the winter, operates the electric range, electric iron, toaster, vacuum cleaner and other household conveniences; but, per haps it renders its greatest service on the farm in furnishing power for shelling and grinding corn, thresh ing barley, separating milk, cutting ByDunkle ensilage and fodder, stuffing sausa ges, milking cows, churning butter, etc. A recent survey showed over 100 farm uses for electricity, and the list is being enlarged daily. Donald Affleck, in Central Hud son Bulletin, sums it up thusly: "The real contribution which elec tricity has made to rural develop ment lies in the fact that it has raised the standard of living in out lying sections by removing much of the drudgery connected with the everyday duties of the farmer and in bringing to him and his family most of the conveniences common ly associated with life in urban com munities." FROM CHAOS TO COSMOS. "AT THE present time we are in "Mhe midst of apparent political confusion," said Charles Evans Hughes in a recent address. "It may seem that we ought to be able to get along in our political parties with less internal strife. I have come to believe that that is the law of nature; not simply the law of political action, but it is a law of the universe. There was a time when scientists in search for the ultimate and the undividable thought that they had discovered it in the atom, as an indivisible unit Now it is appreciated that the atom is a great world in itself with electrons constantly clashing with each other. "As has been well said, the prog ress of the universe is from chaos to cosmos. We all know in our political institutions, if these po litical electrons clash with each other for a certain length of time, there will be progress from what seems to be chaos into cosmos and we shall finally achieve a certain degree of political stability." By Arthur Brisbane Machinery and Brains. Many Mysteries. Schubert's Unfinished Work. Stick to Your Job. W. F. Knudsen, Chervrolet presi dent, offers cheerful news on Gen eral Motors. In May his company turned out 140,700 Chevrolet cars. On one day, May 28, the product was 7,075 finished cars and trucks. May, 1928, is 25,000 cars ahead of May, 1927. That's good production, but. high General Motors officials should bear in mind that the machinery In their brains Is more valuable than any other asset of General Motors. Men like President Sloan of General Motors and Raskob, head of Gen eral Motors finance, work them selves as they wouldn't work any piece of machinery. They take the night train ?rom New York to Detroit, begin work there at 8 in the morning, work through the whole day, eating sand wiches at noon, still working, and take the night train back to New York. No machine'Can stand that, and no duty to stockholders Justifies it Dr. Walsh, of Fordham Univer sity, tells younar men "The world is confronted with more mysteries than ever before. Science solves only a few problems." Yes, indeed. Why does the hy- drogen atom have a single proton in the centre, and a single electron revolving around it why does the helium atom, first discovered on the sun through the spectroscope, have four nuclei with two electrons re volving around them, and how does the formation of four grammes he lium, from hydrogen, produce ener gy as great as though eighty tons of coal were burned? There are some mysteries for you. Everything is a mystery If you go far enough Into it. And the great est of all mysteries is thought which has no proton or electron so far as we know and is driven by an energy that has no more practical name than "soul" or "mind." A $20,000 prize is offered for the best ending to Schubert's "Unfin ished Symphony." It wont be worth $20,000. To finish Schubert's symphony you would have to be Schubert To restore her arms to the Venus of Milo, or to know how the winged Victory looked before she got into that fight, you would require the brain and feeling of the artist that made the statue. Every mind ever born is absolutely . different from every other. James A. Farrell, president of the United States Steel Corporation, will visit the plant of the New Ha ven Wire Company today. When he was sixteen years old he worked there twelve hours out of every twenty-four for $4.65 a week. If you stick to your job, even that kind of job, you can get anywhere. In New York a young man brought into court by his father admitted that he had an income of $400 a week, and employed his fath er as hostler to take care of his saddle horses. His excuse was that the father had not led a moral life. The Japanese religion, that includes twenty different kinds of hell, prob ably would find one especially pre pared for him, that wouldn t include any saddle horses. A visitor to the White House feeling important said to President Coolidge: "Mr. President, I must tell you I did not vote for you." "Well," replied the President, "some did." The Metropolitan Life Insurance Company insured a man past fifty for $1,500,000. A few generations ago, when the second biggest city in France had no inhabitant over fifty years of age, such insuring would have been financially suicidal. Men live longer, intelligence counts. A wise man at fifty is a safer risk than a fool at twenty-five. And the Metropolitan has promoted longer living by intelligent health advertis ing. SURFACE TREATMENT SAVES HIGHWAYS. In a recent article on "Why We Oil Roads," R. H. Baldock, Main tenance Engineer, Oregon State Highway department, said: The present extensive use of fuel oil on the Pacific Coast in road work is the direct outcome of experiment al work conducted in 1923 by the Oregon State Highway Commission, followed in 1924, 1925 and 1926 by a bituminous treatment of several hundred miles of the state highway system. The use of oil in the pres ervation of modern crushed rock and surfaced roads has been devel oped a great deal since that time by the State Highway Department, and is now being used by highway departments of practically every state in the Union. "Oregon pioneered the oiling of roads as a dust preventative and has since developed this type of road surface to a point where it is attracting International attention. Initiated as a dust palliative, the oiling of roads Is now carried on as a major item in economical main tenance, as it has been conclusive ly proved that it costs less to oil and maintain a road than it does to maintain a road without oiling. "The construction of gravel and macadam surfacing for state high ways started in a small way in 1915. At the close of the year 1923, Ore gon had approximately 1200 miles of macadam roads constructed. By the end of 1928 there will be more than twice that mileage completed, of which approximately 1200 miles will be surface-treated with asphal tic oil."
