It has play ed a large part in Americanizing America. It is American. With the introduction of one-piece bathing suits, and popularizing of the sport among the fairer sex for which Jantzen was largely responsi ble the old swimmln' hole isn't what it used to be. But, for that matter, a swimming hole has been out of the question near Heppner most every season for a good many years, especially since the introduction of irrigating ditches for alfalfa patches and In stallation of the city water line from the mountains. That men do not forget those "good old days," however, is evidenced by the action of the city council Monday night in appropriating $350 to assure the opening of the American Legion swimming tank this year. Gloom, black and despairing, was thus dispelled. When the Legion announced that it would be Impossi ble for them to put the tank in shape for operation and open it this year, it did not take long for a weight of public sentiment to de velop which demanded its being opened. When enough people want a thing badly enough they usually get it When hot, summer days arrive, and there is little chance for those who must stay in town to get relief then the value of the swimming tank' la most apparent Many have expressed themselves as willing to forego irrigation privileges for a day or so If necessary, that the tank be kept in operation at this time. That spirit is most commendable. And the value received by thus di verting the water will be just as great Healthy and contented peo ple are a bigger asset to a town than beautiful lawns and gardens, though the latter are important MOTHER'S DAT. WHETHER mother is far or near, do not forget her on this im portant occasion. A few kind words, a little, inexpensive gift mean more than the grandest eloquence and the most elaborate entertainments mean to anyone else. Many a mother, separated by dis tance from her children, pining for them, is made glad on this day by affectionate messages and thought ful gifts. Others, fortunate enough to have their children about them, beam with delight at their manifes tations of love on this day. Of course every day should be Mother's Day never for a moment should her kindness and self-sacrifice be forgotten. Too often, how ever, mothers are taken for grant ed, though experience has shown to mankind that the love of a mother is the only really unselfish love that one is liable to meet in a lifetime. Those whose mothers have gone realize what a precious boon has passed from their lives. They, too, may observe Mother's Day. If your mother has passed on, put a flower at her resting place , . . surely she will know! The Fumble Family there s POLICE- Static Even-thing Depends On Mother By A,ber T Reid WMiH l('uJeSj" Outness is we to srK iri fl f' l i MOTMtHS OF TH. PAST, LOOK OCT FOR BLASTING CAPS. A NATIONWIDE campaign is be ing carried on to help prevent accidents due to blasting caps, be cause of the large number of chil dren crippled annually through handling these innocent-looking ob jects. Ralph L. Patty, agricultural en gineer at the South Dakota State college, has sent out this warning to farmers contemplating work with explosives. "More than 500 children in the United States were crippled last year playing with blasting caps. "The common No. 6 cap is a little over an inch long and Is made of copper. It is the size of a .22 rifle cartridge. The caps look harmless because they appear to be empty. They are not They are loaded about half full of an extremely quick-acting and powerful explo sive, fulminate of mercury. "This explosive is very sensitive. It will explode from a quick jar or shock. It will also explode in com ing in contact with a hot substance or surface. And still more danger ous, it may explode from friction or scratching." This warning should be taken to heart by all who use these blasting caps, and tragedy can be averted. The big business man had died and gone to well, not to heaven. But hardly had he settled down for a nice long smoke when a hearty hand slapped him on the back, and into his ear boomed the voice of a persistent salesman who had pester ed him much on earth. "Well, Mr. Smith," chortled the salesman, "I'm here for the appoint ment" "What appointment?" "Why, don't you remember?" the salesman went on. "Every time I came Into your office you told me you'd see me here!" Miss Flatt: "I'm sorry you don't think much of my voice, professor. The people next door say I ought to go abroad to study." Professor: "Yes, but I don't live next door." Mrs. Brldey: "I'm afraid the cake is heavy, darling." Husband: "That's all right, angel. I only have to lift one piece at a time." Millionaire: "Every dollar I have was made honestly." Candid. Friend: "By whom?" lJ--- mi&tleart S HOUSES As a small boy, one of the most amazing passages I found in the New Testament, and one that taxed my credulity most, was the one con taining assurance of "houses not made with hands." Had I not be lieved in God's word, I would have branded it a glaring falsehood. Vjung manhood came, and with broader perceptive powers, ..imbling through a wooded pas ture, I saw a snail creeping by the side of a fallen tree-trunk; he was occupying his house, which hands had no part in building. It was a real home, too; one that filled every requirement of its owner. You and I live in houses not made with hands these wonderful bodies of ours. They have been called tem ples, where the spirit of God dwells. Whether they are so, I must let the builder of the universe judge. I know that such a spirit may dwell mtimtj rt00l SIwHOtt International Sunday School Lesson for May 12 THE EARLY MINISTRY 07 JEREMIAH Jeremiah 1:6-10; 26:8-15 REV. SAMUEL D. PRICE, D. D. When people are bent on doing evil they are not apt to stay re formed, no matter how much they may weep at the time. Isaiah had been a very faithful prophet during the reigns of four kings in Judah. Enough deliverances from other warring nations had been received from God to make them eager to do right just by way of showing thanks if for no other reason. Both kings and people kept returning to the vile abominations under the name of worship which had been intro duced from the surrounding idola trous nations. Another great prophet is raised a limit ByDunkei IXMVOBCfcD MVVwE-LL FIRST HUS3ANDN0W THAT'S' WITHOUT ANY WHAT I CALL ' TEOurATmMm'c here if the temple be kept clean and fit for such a tenant The spirit of God, it seems to me, has but lit tle room in a temple dedicated to moral leprosy. We may own a hundred hand built houses; may go in and out of them as we please; we may regard them as the last word in architec ture, beauty and comfort; we may lease them to others; but this house not made with hands is different; it requires our first and best care. Even the most trifling neglect may destroy it forever, and, when we once forsake it, we cross its thresh old no more. It is my house not made with hands that gives me the most con cern; it is worth inestimably more than any habitation that I myself might create. Therefore I will keep it clean inside and out, and be vig ilant to protect It from dangerous and destructive Influences. I want It to last at least a hundred years, if possible. up to guide them into right and safe ways. Jeremiah was born in the same year as good king Josiah who made fine use of the Penta teuch, which had been discovered in cleaning out the Temple. At least the memory of that reform must be in the thinking of the old er people. For forty years Jere miah wrought through the reigns of five kings. We have five lessons taken from his writings. Read the book of Jeremiah and also Lamen tations, which were by Jeremiah. He was called the "Weeping Proph et," but he had much to lament over as Judah insisted on doing the wrong thing In spite of every call to righteousness. When called to his office, Jere miah was modest in declaring his unfitness. He called himself a "child." One is not apt to be very aggressive under such a self eval uation. God quickly did away with that Inferiority .complex by telling him to consider Who it was that was commissioning him. Our Mas ter Teacher Is able to equip any one for service to whom any spec ial duty is assigned. The ordina tion service was completed as the hand of Jehovah touched his mouth. At once he was told to "speak un to all the people." Many laughed at him and most refused to heed the summons to repentance. Then this man, who just must help the people, reduced his appeals to writing and we have a collection of these ad dresses in the book we now study for five weeks. The answer of the people to Jere miah's efforts on their behalf was the sentence "Thou shalt surely die." The princes of Judah reaf firmed this verdict. They did not want their sins showed up and so shouted down the man who talked of keeping the moral law and the laws of God. There was all too much expression of general opinion and no one thought the matter through as it might apply to him personally. They treated Jeremiah as a renegade because he said Je rusalem would be overthrown If sinners persisted in doing evil. He is a patriot Indeed who Is bold enough to spaek against his nation when the are riding to a fall be cause of wrong doing. Later monu ments are erected bearing the names of just such martyrs. When a formal trial came at the gate, the usual place of Justice, Jeremiah saw that It was a fine op portunity to again tell them of their sins. He did not trim his message to please the Jury but said "Amend your ways and your doings, and obey the voice of Jehovah." He dismissed his own life as by a wave oi tne hand. They could do to him "as is good and right In your own eyes." Then their better judgment helped their guilty consciences to pronounce against themselves and to declare the prophet "Not guilty." It still remained for the remnant of the great Jewish nation to re form their conduct and bring it in accord with their recent vote. It is the same today. Deeds count, rath er than good sounding words. New Load Limit for ' Trucks Begins June 4 Salem, Ore., May 7. A number of Important laws affecting the opera tion of motor vehicles were enacted at the recent session of the legisla ture, and many of them will be ef fective on June 4. Of particular in terest among them has been the one providing a new schedule of load limits for trucks, and Inasmuch as there appeared to be some confllc tions in the act as finally passed, the secretary of state had the en tire problem referred to the state's attorney general for interpretation. The opinion of the attorney general will be used as a basis from which the weight law will be administered, says the secretary of state, with the following as the high lights of the Interpretation: "A four wheeled truok may be operated with a combined weight of not more than 22,000 pounds, but if operated in combination with other vehicles the combined weight of all shall not exceed 34,000 pounds. A six wheeled truck having two axl es spaced less than eight feet apart may have a combined weight not in excess of 27,000 pounds, and may not be operated in conjunction with any other vehicle or without pneu matic tires. A six wheeled truck having axles spaced not less than eight feet apart may be operated with a total combined weight not in excess of 34,000 pounds, or may be operated in combination with other attached vehicles, the total combin ed weight of which truck and at tached vehicles shall not be more than 34,000 pounds." A. M. Edwards, well driller of the Lexington country, was in Heppner Monday evening on business before the city council. Mr. Edwards re cently purchased an 11-acre tract near Irrigon where his family will move at the end of the school year, and in connection with his well drilling Mr. Edwards will raise some chickens, Btrawberriea and other produce on the new place. He says that Irrigon strawberries are now setting on in good shape and will be ripe within the next two weeks. He: "If you refuse me, I shall never love another." She: "Will that be true if I accept you?" LEGAL NOTICES NOTICE OF SALE OF ANIMALS.
