DISCUSSION arose at the Busi ness Men's Luncheon club Mon day as to the advisability of invit ing the Oregon Wool Growers' asso ciation to meet in Heppner next year. It has been a long time since they met here, and those present were of the opinion that it wouia be a good idea to extend the invita tion. Due to the small representa tion of business interests, however, no action was taken. Heppner is one of the leading wool shipping points of the state; wool, the county s second industry. Local interests thrive as the farmer and woolman thrive. Each year large number of local woolmen iournev to some outside point to attend the meeting As a courtesy to local woolmen, and a demonstration of sympathetic interest in the work of the associa tion, Heppner should invite the woolmen. Just another instance of the need of a more representative commercial organization. THEY SERVED FAITHFULLY, MANY thorns mingle with the roses that strew the path of him who holds public office. Public of ficials are on the firing line, hold ing up the brunt of the battle be tween the taxpayer and those who have favors to ask of public trust Whenever there is a decision to make, they must offend some one. When they are repeatedly given a public trust, they must have proved their mettle. George McDuffee has retired vol untarily after serving for 12 years as sheriff of Morrow county, Cr. Noble leaves the city mayorality, also voluntarily, with a record of 10 years service to the city. These men made good. They are entitled to a rising vote of thanks. Br. 3mxk (&tm mjs: This newspaper will for soma weoks continue to publish the work of the lata Dr. Frank Crane. Dr. Crane recently passed away at Nice, Franca, Before leaving for Europe he had pre. pared a number of articles in advance. THE OTHER WORLD When you sail across the sea you wonder what all that waste of water is for. It stretches away for miles and miles. Days at a time you cannot see even another ship. Water, water everywhere, clear to the horizon. And they say that three-fourths of the earth's surface is ocean. We think we people who live on land, and those that sail across the sea in boats, are the whole thing. Man thinks that the universe is made for him, but Mr. Pope says that the goose thinks the same thing. It is stated that there are more living things under the water than in the air. It is not unreasonable to suppose that whoever made this earth thought the denizens of the sea were more import ant than the inhabitants of the land. Else He wouldn't have made so many of them. Curious about that other world! People drown when they are submerged in the water, and those things that inhabit the water generally drown when they come up into the air. No man can go down into the home of the fishes and live very long. When Mr. Fish comes up into the air we all live but he dies shortly. Perhaps that other world of spirits, of which much is imagined, is like that No spirit has been proved to mingle with men. This atmosphere of ours may be as fatal to it as to a fish. At any rate we know his atmosphere is fatal to us. No man has gone into it and returned to tell the tale. - We eat the fish when they are cooked, but the fish goes us one better and eats us when we are not cooked. We have strange stories of mythical beings who inhabit the depths of the sea. Few believe them. We have equally strange stories of witches and mediums who call spirits out of the upper world. Some believe them. But as far as we know our activities and acquaintances must be confined to this narrow stratum of the earth's atmosphere. We go below it into the sea, or above it, through the portals of death, at our peril. TJtWeelt By Arthur Brisbane Wasted Values. Churches Should be Big. Lions and Sheep. Swearing Off. It would appear that the Eastern Oregon Wheatgrowers league is on the right track to do worthwhile service for the wheatmen. A meet ing in Heppner on January 19 will prepare local farmers for the busi ness to be brought up at Arlington at the annual meeting. Right now it might be well for farmers to for get about the price of wheat and prepare to attend the meeting. They will be well repaid for their time. Only by wholehearted cooperation of the majority can results be ob tained. "United we stand, divided we fall," is as true today as the day the words were spoken. DON'T LAUGH AT PROGRESS! A PREDICTION has been made that in the future there will be air boats as big or bigger than the largest modern steamers. You may believe this or not but do not be one of the laughers. Recently the twenty-fifth anniver sary of flying was observed. When the Wright Brothers first invented the airplane, pretty nearly every body laughed. Think of the air plane of today. To go back far into the past, a great many people laughed at Co lumbus. At Gallileo. At Fulton. When the first steamboat plied the waters of the Hudson, persons lined along the shore roared their con tempt for the funny little boat Ful ton had launched. From time immemorial, indeed, the pioneers in science and discov ery have been hampered in their work by the laughers. Those who would not believe. Even the phono graph and the motion picture ma chine were at first regarded with derision and misbelief. At most these wonderful boons to humanity were considered as harmless toys for children. The world is learning its lesson. Today new Inventions are greeted mtuag rlonl ffiesmm with respect The day of the laugher, the haw-hawer, is drawing to a close. The avenues for discov ery, the road to progress, are more open than ever before. Be one of those to welcome the new thing when it comes along do not shame yoursef by laughing at it. When the impossible is predicted, remember that in the course of modern progress many a thing thought impossible has become both possible and practicable. The greatest of all waste goes on inside the human brain of which 999 one-thousandths remain idle and unused, even in well -managed brains. Millions of brains do not work at all, only remember and re peat, never create. But that will change. Consider what ants and other insects accom plish having been here many mil lion years ahead of us. We are only 12000 years from the late Stone Age which is the most encouraging fact in history. Give men ten to fifty! million more years with deepening convolutions and inherited know ledge, and see what they will do. A mud wasp, as Fabre shows, is born knowing how to perform a most delicate surgical operation, difficult for a skilled man. New born human babies 50,000,000 years hence, will know more of mathe matics than Newton knew when he died more of music than Beethoven and Bach combined. John D. Rockefeller, Jr., who un derstands human nature, encour ages the building of Dr. Reisner's skyscraper church in New York, says "churches must be big enough to dominate skyscrapers. Material as well as spiritual dominance is needed. That sound Idea inspired builders of the old cathedrals. When the PoDe ordered Michel Angelo to build St. Peter's in Rome, domln ance was the idea as it was In the building of the cathedrals of Co logne, Milan, Notre Dame and oth ers. To control men you must control their IMAGINATION. Mussolini has old-fashioned ideas and good ones. The new twenty lira piece, worth $1, bears the in scription worth many dollars'. "Melgio vivere un giorno da le- one, che cento anm da pecora, meaning, "It is better to live one day like a lion than one hundred years like a sheep." It's hard to make a sheep believe it Like a man half-heartedly swear ing off in the morning, the world Is tiying to give up war. And this country, which never started a war against Europe, Is expected to do most of the reforming. It's like asking Moody and Sankey to sign the pledge first, or entreating the Rev. Dr. Stratton not to believe in Darwin. The individual must solve his own problems, with the use of will pow er. "The heart knoweth his own bitterness." Each of us knows what is wrong with him, and what he ought to do. Few of us do it Nations know what they ought to do. None of them does it Europe ought to stop fighting, and can't We ought to mind our own busi ness, and can't. NOTICE OP FINAL ACCOUNT.

International Sunday School Lesson for January 13 SIN I John 1:5-10; 2:1-6 BEV. SAMUEL D. PRICE, D. D. Holiness is an attribute of God. The simplest survey of life or of self reveals the everywhereness of sin. Thus the theme for this week is In utmost contrast to that for last week when the Eternal God was the subject Man Is both way ward and he has never journeyed through life before. Hence he is in constant need of an adequate Guide Book and that Book is the Bible. It might well be called the sinner's Book for it gives a complete analy sis of his experiences and then re veals an adequate solution of his constant problems. Numerous passages must be stud led in connection with each lesson this quarter. Those for supplement al study this week are Genesis 3: 1-24; 6:5-8; Mark 7:14-23; Romans 1: 18-32 and 3:10-18. Others of equal Importance can be noted by look ing at your concordance. Those who Insist it is hard to keep from doing evil in the present environment will do well to think themselves back Into the Garden of Eden where Adam and Eve were part of an unmarred world. They had the maximum of blessings for which to be thankful as they held their daily tryst with their Creator. Yet they chose to disobey the rea sonable command of their heaven ly Father. Man sins by the exercise of his own free will when he has been given power to the contrary. After our first parents became out casts from Paradise they had plen ty of time to meditate on the con sequenes. As they faced their guil ty consciences in their hopelessness, the First Evangel was given In the promise that was redeemed in the Messiah, the theme for next week. That sin cannot remain a per sonal matter is revealed in the ex tent of sin at the time of Noah. A new start was given after the Flood but meanwhile human nature had only been restrained; it was not changed. Read again the New Testament passages indicated above. Here you will find sin analyzed. There can be no real reason for choosing sin (Romans 1:20). The baseness of life resulting from a sin-controlled heart is shown in that same chap ter. The aged John that beloved dis ciple, holds the mirror before every life as he says, "If we say we have no sin we deceive ourselves." But he does not present the evil with out disclosing the adequate remedy. For he adds "If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to for give us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." This is made still clearer as he points to the Friend he loves so well: "And if any man sin, we have an Advo cate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous." Then a most prac tical test is given which puts life above all profession: "Hereby we know that we know him, if we keep his commandments." NEEDING LUMBER?

CITY GARAGE, Local Agent, Phone 172 The Day's Destiny at His Finger Tips Every new electrical in vention finds an abun dance of power ready to serve it Through the enterprise of the electric light and power companies, electric pow er plants and service fa cilities are being con structs in advance of consumer demand. Since 1900 the capacity of these plants has been doubled every ..five years. The lonely vigil of the train dis patcher is a picture familiar to ev eryone. Few realize, however, the part played in almost every life by the Power Dispatcher. Perhaps you have never heard of him, yet millions of men, women and children In the United States are quite as dependent upon him as passengers on a railroad train are dependent on a train dispatcher. He it Is who is on the other end of the wire when you turn on an elec tric light . . . who releases and con trols the great cataract of electric power and light which make the wheels of modern life go around. Seated quietly at his keyboard watching the clock, the weather and the delicate instruments which trace the flow of electric energy his Is the task and responsibility of keeping the supply of electric cur rent constant and ready to meet any demand. Let this service falter but once, and the social, Industrial and economic life of the city and the countryside is paralyzed and even life may be endangered. But the electric light and power companies have seen to it that the service will not falter. Through a systetm of interconnection, other reservoirs of power may always be tapped in the event of any failure on the part of the Power Dispatch er's lines. Thus is life, business and the pur suit of happiness In America made safe and secure every hour of the day, every day of the year. Pacific Power & Light Co. J. 0.
