CREDIT ASSET OB LIABILITY. THAT business in Heppner has started on a new era in line with the accepted policies in the larger centers is indicated by the estab lishment this week of a lcoal retail merchant s' credit association. Sounder business and a more tangi ble prosperity should be the result. Credit associations are not a new thing. They have existed for years in the larger cities and have become so common that it is the customary thing for people moving into a new locality to seek out the credit bu reau and establish their rating be fore asking stores for the extension of credit This is done with very little inconvenience the same as one would make arrangements for wa ter, gas or electric service. Once the rating is established, securing credit accommodations is an easy matter and so long as the privilege is not abused one may enjoy it without further inconvenience. Credit when extended properly is an asset to business, making it eas ier for the purchaser to secure goods, easier to keep a check on his budget; and facilitates the free flow of trade. By means of credit people may buy things as they need them, some of which they might either have to go without or borrow the money to get How easy it is to go to the phone, call the grocer or butcher and say "charge it" Then when the end of the month comes, to take the statement write out a check, drop it in the mail and have all the month's disbursement wor ries taken care of in one transac tion. This is a real convenience, the extra cost of which many people gladly pay. One should expect to pay for the convenience, however, as the merchant cannot be expected to do for nothing the extra book keeping necessitated by the exten sion of credit It's when credit is abused that it becomes a liability, and it's for the prevention of abuse, as far as pos sible, that the credit association is established. Anyone familiar with accounting knows the dead loss to business each year because of the amount "marked off by bad , ac counts." This is the amount of goods sold on credit for which the merchant has not chance of collec tion. In the aggregate these lost accounts go to increase the cost of living, and work a hardship on pur chaser as well as merchant They represent a class of people who live beyond their earning power, and who thus throw the whole economic structure out of balance. The retail merchants' credit asso ciation is a good thing for every body concerned. It should be wel comed by everyone in the commun ity. PREVENT FIRES! A NNUAL fire Prevetion Week, which has just closed, was in a way a commemoration of the great Chicago fire of 1871, for it was on October 8, 1871, that Mrs. O'Leary's cow kicked over a lantern and started a conflagration which raged two days and nights, killing 250 GET YOURS Formerly 150.00 The SEALY Tnftless mattress is the finest that can be made.

Since 1926, those sponsoring Fire Prevention Week disclose, were have been diminishing Are losses. Nevertheless, in the last year for which statistics are available, 1926, ten thousand persons were killed and property worth nearly half a million was destroyed by nres in the United States. Most of these nres were prevent able. It is said ninety per cent or the deaths and destruction were avoidable. It is up to every citizen to keep in mind always the neces sity for constant watchfulness and care to prevent fires. The penalty of neglect in this respect Is heavy indeed. MacDONALD A PEACE PROPHET. RAMSAY MacDONALD's visit to the United States is important for many reasons but perhaps most important because he comes as a messenger of peace, with the intention of hastening the wrold- wide peace movement When Arm istice Day comes tws year, tne out look for world peace, we hope, will be much brighter because of Mac- Donald's visit We have made many sacrifices for war, says MacDonald why not make some sacrifices for peace? These words are noble and beauti ful. They point at a new era of international understanding, and loving-kindness the world over. This apostle of peace this good will messenger from Great Britain comes not as a Prince or King to these shores, but as simple Ramsay MacDonald, son of a Scottish farm laborer. When Hoover and Mac Donald speak, two men speak who have risen from poverty to great leadership, two men who have trea sured and never abandoned the sim ple, sincere manners of their orig ins. Let us hope the accomplish ment of these two figures, acting in friendship and cooperation, is great indeed. The Benefits of Physical Examination of Children From State Board of Health. "The benefit of medical physical examinations of school children is so great that it can hardly be meas ured in figures. Probably not far from seventy-five per cent of young children have defects of some kind that can be ameliorated it not cured, The most frequent defect of young children, perhaps fifty per cent is some type of abnormal teeth. Some teeth should be, ex tracted: some filled; some are in terfering with the eruption of sec ond and permanent set of teeth, and some have deformed mouths. The next most frequent abnor malities are diseased tonsils and adenoids; next is abnormal vision next abnormal ears; and next per haps, are heart defects. Very many have some signs of tuberculosis. whether it is the bones, the glands, or more rarely in children the lungs that are affected, but at present this disease is generally discovered before the child reaches school. very large number have spinal cur vatures. 'Not as many as formerly, but still a large number are . found to be underfed or wrongly fed. At the present time, however, there is too much routine in feeding children in school. The well fed and the overweight' should not be encour aged to have milk during the school session. These children should be given fruit Calisthentic exercises ana tne teaching of correct breathing, cor rect standing and correct walking and especially correct sitting at desk are essential in the supervision of children at school.

PETERSON'S Heppner's Quality Jewelry will develop round shoulders or other deformities. "Each pupil should have fifteen square feet of floor space and 200 cubic feet of air space. Each school room should be about 30 feet long, 25 feet wide and 13 feet high and should accommodate not more than fifty children. The temperature should be 66 degrees and not more than 70 degrees F., and the humid ity should be between 30 and 60. A thermometer should hang in the room where it will tell the truth. "At the present time all new schools have sufficient light; it is a question if some schools do not have too much light "It is hardly necessary to discuss In this sanitary age that there should be first class drinking and toilet facilities, including paper towels, so that there may not be contamination from an ill pupil to a well one." Osborne. OPERATORS' LICENSES. With the advent of the school sea son, permits issued to students un der 16 for special permission to op erate automobiles to and from schools increased to 71 in Septem ber. No encouragement is offered by the operators' licensing depart ment of the secretary of state's of fice to students who wish merely to avail themselves of motoring priv ileges when other means of trans portation are available. But in ru ral districts where neither railroad nor bus transportation can be used by the student, he is given special permission to drive a car when suf ficient approval is forthcoming from the sheriff, county judge and chair man of the school board in his dis trict Students must be 14 years of age before they may obtain per mits. Designation of the roads to be traversed between home and school is required and students thus licensed are not permitted to op erate cars on other roads. Regular operators' permits issued in September numbered 2,611 while 1,118 persons found it necessary to obtain duplicate licenses. THE BEST THING IN THE WORLD. It may sound too good to be true but it is so, nevertheless. The best thing in the world is not always easy to obtain but each one of us can have It if we want it bad en ough. The tragedy is that it is often thrown away for things of less val ue. We will talk and think about the best thing in the world at the Sunday evening service at the Church of Christ. The hour is 7:30 and there will be music. Come! The topic at the morning worship hour will be, "If You Knew." Bible school is at 9:45. There is a class for everyone.

Price, D.D. When about to graduate from col lege the mother of a classmate ask ed the privilege of giving to the two young men three rules for happi ness. With all solemnity she stat ed them as "Work, Work, Work!" Eight selected verses or portions of Scripture are given for intensive study and all are printed in full in the various helps. They are to be studied both singly and collectively and are Genesis 2:15; Exodus 20:9; Nehemiah 6:3; John 5:17; Acts 20; 33-35; 2 Thess. 3:6-12; Ephesians 4:28. Work is far more than the means of obtaining a living in this world. It is man's friend and solace. In "Katrine," by Elinor Macartney Lane, the incident is told of two children who were punished. The girl cried the rest of the morning but the boy went out to make swings. Then Josef says of the hardest kind of work, "It's a great gospel that! I wish I could teach it to every woman on earth. Don't cry! Make swings!" The day is past when, anyone thinks that a man can be both pious and lazy, These eight Bible references are all to the contrary. Adam was started right when Je hovah directed him to be a good WAYS AND MEANS. No matter what the shortcoming, scolding or perpetual nagging never cured it. A word of encouragement, rightly placed, is worth a carload of impatient adjuration. . I know a man who is generally regarded as a financial failure. As such, he is passed by, as not worth the attention of the busy world. He therefore becomes despodent at times; if he does a good deed, peo ple seem to think he has not done all he should. They regard him as a good-natured guy, who could have been wealthy if he had just had any sense. In reality, this fellow has lent a hand every time he found a brother in need a hand, for that was all he had. He gives his mite cheerfully to charity, church and state. Pedd lers regard him as "easy money," if he happens to increase his income a little; they swarm about him like mosquitoes. His wife nags him because he do esn't make good like other men do for their wives. His life of ser vice to others is anything but a hap py one.

The old saying has a modern application that "Satan finds some work for idle hands to do." It is an honor to clasp the hardened hand of a toller and It is also good when the flabby handed get the Idea that honest toil is hon orable. The title insists that use ful work is a Christian duty. Emphasis Is given to the neces sity of six days of toil that preced ed the Sabath rest The Hebrews were absolutely right in requiring that each son learn a trade and the daughters were taught to excel in their own spheres. Work is oppo site from selfishness for therein a reasonable return In value is given for every dollar received. It is fine when one is so absorbed with the task in hand that they give a simi lar 'reply to that presented by Nehe miah: "I am doing a great work, so that I cannot come down." Jesus declared that He must act in harmony with the Father Who was Architect as well as Builder. The Nazarene tolled as a carpenter and learned a practical sympathy for all others who wrought by their labor. He was also a Kingdom builder during his entire public min istry. He had much to do in His 33 years on earth but at last he could say, "It is finished." Paul was a good tentmaker as well as a heart-searching preacher. To the Thessalonians he said, in our Goldn Text, "If any man will not ' work, neither let him eat." as Joe, this would be a better world. Once he confided to me, "I've tried to be a good man, and, above every thing else, to wrong nobody; I've done my best, but it does'nt seem to mak me any friends." "Joe," I replied, "you haven't any enemies; everybody likes you, I'm sure of that." "But, doctor," he came back, "they never tell me so. If somebody'd just " He drew out a faded handker chief, turned away for a moment and repeated, "if they'd just give me a word, now and then " I saw myself as in a mirror; I had never found time to lighten Joe's burden to give him what his hun gry heart was crying for. And, it would have cost me absolutely noth ing! Joe is a better man than I am I felt like a culprit under an unin tentional rebuke. Two 4-H Champions Are Registered at 0. S. C.
