Foreign Advertising Representative AMERICAN PRESS ASSOCIATION There are three things in speech that ought to be considered before some things are spoken the man ner, the place and the time. South- AN ASSET TO THE CITY. A PROGRESSIVE and generous citizenry populates our little county. This has been evidenced at various times when major projects have been put across by cooperative effort Not the least of these was the building of an 185.000 hotel building in Heppner. But it so hap pens that sometimes the giving of money is not all'tnat is necessary to accomplish desired results. The men who subscribed stock in the Heppner Hotel association felt the need of a hostelry in tne city which the building they erected was calculated to fill. But it has not worked out that way. After com pleting the building it was turned over to private hands for equipment and management Whether the service was a little too high class for local patronage or Just what was wrong, we do not feel qualified to say. But as time went on the fine new equipment was replaced with rather inferior articles, the ho tel began to take on a jaded appear ance, the dining room was closed to be reopened for a time as a Japan ese restaurant and later, under a change m management, again as the hotel dining room, only to suffer its former fate. Still later the big lobby was disected to make room for several businesses, the hotel entrance being moved to the side street and the hotel itself became only a rooming house. Once more the need is felt for an adequate hostelry. To fill the need this time no great expenditure of money is called for, as the building once provided still stands, and bet ter, parties capable of running the kind of hotel the city needs are in terested in purchasing it Mrs. J. P. Cochran and daughter have taken over the management They have run successful hotels in small towns and come well recom mended and qualified to give Hepp ner the kind of hotel that will make this city a popular stopping place. There is no secret about the num ber of traveling men and others who have been arranging their itin eraries so as to avoid stopping over night here. Mrs. Cochran has faith that the hotel can be made to pay and will buy when satisfactory terms can be arranged with the present ownership. What is now needed is encourage ment and support of the hotel by Heppner and surrounding territory. A good hotel is one of the city's best assets. It is a city's advertising leader. An opportunity is offered the city to take another step ahead. Let's not pass it up. Sr. $vmk (Bran? mjs: EMPLOYING THE DEAF. What people want, most of all, that is, the self-respecting kind of people, is not charity but employment A man who can work at all wants to do his bit The most commendable trait in a human being is a desire to stand on his own feet and get himself off other peoples' backs. When you give a man a job, therefore, you give a boost to his per sonality. You help him respect himself. When you give a man charity it depresses his personality and encourages that spirit in him which makes him a pauper. We are all sorry for deaf people and none of us would object to giving them a quarter now and then to help them along. But this is the cheapest thing we can do. It is mere sop to sentiment It is giving a little of our surplus money to relieve ourselves of the re sponsibility of giving our time and interest and effort The American Federation of Organizations for the Hard of Hearing with headquarters at Washington, D. C, is seeking to help the deaf by finding them jobs. The New York League for the Hard of Hearing has done a great deal for the unemployed deaf. These organizations are investigating constantly occupations in which the deafened can make good, giving advice as to chance of occupations or to a training for available positions. For instance, it suggested to a deafened fur salesman that he give up the salesmanship of fur for fur cutting, and he is making a success in that line, whereas he was failing in the former line. A New York store employed hard of hearing cash girls with success because the crash of noise of the carriers does not dis tract them. There are many occupations which a deaf person can pursue, although he is handicapped in many. The public should realize that the best way to help deaf people, as well as other crippled or impaired people, is to give them em ployment and the employers of the country would do a great deal more good giving work to people than they could do in giving them charity or dispensing largess in any way. It is not urged that people should let their sympathy interfere with their business, but whenever their business can be carried on just as well by those who need it the job should be given them. The deaf of the country appeal to you not for occasional charity, but for a chance to work and support themselves. man and wife and their two child ren were thrown into the water. All but the father perished. With his two little children, one aged two years, one only a month old, in his arms, the father endeav ored to swim to the shore, a mile away. But, exhausted, he was obliged to drop the children. He reached the shore alone. It was a noble effort The only difference between a father and a mother in such a case is that THE MOTHER WOULD HAVE DIED WITH THE CHILDREN. Ethel Barrymore, forty-nine years old yesterday, told friends she was enjoying life "as much as ever." She ought to be enjoying life MORE than ever. For an intelligent woman real life begins at forty-nine. Wise Provi dence won't let women do import ant mental work much before fifty. Up to that age Nature intends wom en to be busy with children. Roy Chapman Andrews, search ing for strange things in Central Asia, reports finding an extinct mon ster "as big as the Woolworth Building." Such an animal, if carnivorous, could carry home in its mouth a j THINKING -OUT LOUD uuupte Ul Ulg ctepiittii to cum wain through an ordinary city crushing buildings as it went But It had a small head, little or no thinking power. That is why it is no longer with us. A great nation, and good pace maker, is Canada. This year's Can adian wheat crop, 600,000,000 bush els, breaks all records. And Can adians have just dedicated a Na tional park, in the northern part of the Province of Saskatchewan, 900,- 000 acres in extent. Doing things in a big way is Can ada's habit and this country is glad to have so able and friendly a neigh bor. Uncle Sam contributed to Cana da's wheat growers when he dug the Panama Canal, letting all na tions use it on the same terms as ourselves. Through that canal, Canadians in the Northwest can deliver wheat in Europe much more cheaply than our Middle Western farmers can de liver it Women sleep more than men, says a professor at the University of Pittsburgh. Well, they need more sleep to rest their vocal chords. The truth is America buys a great many books, and reads a great many more. More books are being printed in America now than ever before in history. More people are buying books than ever before, or borrowing them from libraries. Perhaps the whole argument may hinge on the fact that one can't get candy at a public library. And that while one can't eat one's candy and have it too, one can very well read one's book and have it too! Americans are both candy lovers and book lovers. Incidentally, the way these modern realists write, it is sometimes necessary to consume seven pounds of candy after read ing one book in order to get the taste of the book out of the mouth. Approaching Main street and May street the new stop signs just in stalled by the city must be observed. In other words all streets leading to the state highway have been thus marked and it is now up to the mo torist to "watch his step." By Arthur Brisbane Beating the Moon. Sinkable Life Guards. A Noble Effort. A Woman at 49. Good morning! Have you observ ed Heppner's new stop signs? CANDY AJiD BOOKS. ONE of those persons who is al ways figuring out things has re cently declared that Americans buy seven pounds of candy to one book. We presume that this is Intended as a bit of sarcasm anent American intellectuality. However, we do not think this a particularly bad sign. AN AGE OF MACHINERY. THIS is the machine age. And among its products are many for which the farmers of the country are grateful. In fact, the farmer's best friend in these past fifty years has been the labor-saving machin ery devised by American inventors. Now the Department ot Agricul ture reports that this year the wheat of whole counties in Kansas will be handled by the new combine harvester. In one operation, this machine moved across the field cutting and threshing the wheat. In fifteen days of actual work, two men by the use of the combine can harvest from four to five hun dred acres of grain. This new ma chine makes it possible to accom plish work in one-fourth the time needed formerly. Truly the machine age is a boon to the farmers. A New York man deaf for 45 vears has suddenly recovered his hearing, but isn't quite sure wheth er he likes it or not. There must be a radio in his home. Men have already beaten the moon in its journey around the earth. The moon's trip takes a lit tle more than twenty-seven days. Fliers have made the trip in twenty-three days. Beating the moon around the earth is one achievement. The next will be to TIE the sun in its appar ent journey around the earth. With machines flying 1,000 miles an hour, gentlemen wanting a pro longed sun bath will be able to fly directly under the sun, following it around the earth for twenty-iour hours or longer. New York's Civil Service Commis sion investigated the qualities of life guards, hired by politicians to pro tect New York City's beaches. They were supposed to dash into the boil ing surf and save the drowning. It was found that of 163 guards 15 couldn't swim a stroke, 18 more re fused to "risk the swimming teat in the water." They thought it too dangerous. In the words of Mr. Cook, of Los Angeles, imagine their embarrassment when anyone cried "help." There may be something in the statement that politicians are not fit to attend to any kind of bus iness. In New York they certainly are not fit to select life guards.

"The exposition at Los Angeles will be the biggest thing of its kind in the whole history of aviation in America. There will be hundreds of exhibitors. Every plane now used will be exhibited at the great show, which last eight days," said Keger reis, in outlining the extent of the display. "And the Pacific North west will have a complete series of displays from raw products to manufactured planes, and from pri vate schools to more advanced methods of instruction." Many municipal airports will have ex hibits in additi"i to private con-cer-r " Thu exposition ot aviation pro ducts will be one of the most val uable, but not the most spectacular part of the meet in the opinion of Chairman Kegerreis; for the air derbies across the continent will end there on separate days and the races on the field will be continued for the eight days. More than J125, 000.00 has been offered in prizes. There will be three air derbies from New York to Los Angeles. Non-stop race from New York to Los Angeles. Class "A" race for ships over 505 cubic inch displacement. Class "B" race for ships under 605 cubic inch displacement. Chairman Kegerreis has also lln ed up several entries for the derbies including Tex Rankin, who was placed at the New York to Spokane event last year after com lag from 14th to 4th place.

Bossv" Gillls, mayor of New- buryport, Mass., has been sentenc ed to jail for operating a gasoline station without a license, we says that tho more often he goes to jail, the more popular he becomes, and he hopes to aapture the Governor ship of the state in order to get even with the judge who sentenced him. We don't think a mere matter of operating a gasoline station with out a license is quite enougn to make him Governor. Why doesn't he put over something BIG?

PAUL IN ATHENS AND COBINTH Acts 18:1-11; I Timothy 2:3-7 Rev. Samuel D. Price, D. D., Associate General Secretary of the Werld's Sunday School Association. Admiration for boldness in carry ing out a great purpose must be accorded to Paul as we follow him on his journey through Athens, that incomparable city In Greece. He was alone, for Silas and Timothy had been left In Beroea at the time of the recent hurried departure. Such men as Pericles, Sophocles and Socrates had been teachers in Ath ens. Art had reached a summit of expression in the Parthenon, Propy laea and Erectheum that crowned the Acropolis. The most casual sur vey of the statues that lined the great streets indicated that the Ath enians had more gods already than they could keep track of, and lest some supposed deity might feel ne glected for lack of a shrine there was an idol to "the unknown god." But Paul came on a mission and he could carry out his purpose wherever he might find people. A real insurance man is not disturbed at the number of agents who are already on the ground: he believes in insurance and Just starts out to sell another policy. The Evangelist pitied the people who believed so many things that were not so and began to tell them, singly and in groups, about the one God and His Son Jesus Christ. Like many others, the writer had the privilege a few years ago of standing on Mars Hill and reading to a large audience of fellow trav elers Acts 17:16-32, which is the record of Paul's words and work on that very eminence, just opposite the Acropolis. Corinth came next In the itiner ary. That city was the playground for Romans and was as immoral as any imagination can picture. Here again Paul was not deterred by ad verse conditions but proceeded with his mission. The worse the people were, the more they needed the soul cure that he had come to proclaim. One can easily find what he likes In any new city. This Apostle to the Gentiles sought out those with whom he could fellowship in purity and discovered Aquila and Priscila, recently put out of Rome because they were Jews. They were also tentmakers, Paul's well - learned trade. This couple were taken to Ephesus and did fine missionary work in that city. Work started, as was customary, In the synagogue where both Jews and Greeks formed the audience. Soon Silas and Timothy came from Macedonia. Their arrival seemed to have given still greater courage to Paul who was still bolder In "tes tifying to the Jews that Jesus was the Christ." Those who would not believe began to blaspheme. Again we note the purposeful and resourceful Paul, who can be an in spiration to any quitter, as he plans a new method of campaign In car tying forward his consuming pur pose. This time he made use of the home of Titus Justus, a believer, and there preached and taught as the people became apt pupils. Many be lieved and were baptized. When problems and plots were extra hard the Lord said to Paul in a night vision "Be not afraid, but speak and hold not thy peace." Such messages were heartening to Paul In other disturbing situations. Read with care Acts 16:9; 22:18; 23:11; 27:23-25. Paul wrought in Corinth for a year and a half and while there wrote his first epistles: I and II Thessalonlans. The nature of the truths that were announced were akin to those found in I Tim othy 2:3-7. The Golden Text Is an other clear statement "For I de termined not to know anything among you, save Jesus Christ, and Him crucified," I Cor. 2:2. NOTICE TO CREDITORS.
