HEPPNER GAZETTE TIMES, HEPPNER, OREGON, THURSDAY, OCT. 17, 1029. PAGE SIX 'BY E.W HO we vaa ARE YOU ORTHODOX? QUEEN VICTORIA. OLD THINGS AND NEW. As impressive reading as I have ever found In the writings of a first class man Is from George Santa yana: "I have great respect for ortho doxy; not for those orthodoxies which prevail in particular schools or nations, and which vary from age to age, but for a certain shrewd orthodoxy which the sentiment and practice of laymen maintain every where. I think that common sense, in a rough, dogged way, is techni cally sounder than the special schools of philosophy, each of which squints and overlooks half the facts and half the difficulties in its eager ness to find some detail the key to the whole. I am animated by dis trust of all high guesses, and by sympathy with the old prejudices and workaday opinions of mankind; they are ill expressed, but they are well grounded. I also like Santayana because he said: "My system is not mine, nor is it new." I am prejudiced against those persons who show enthusiasm only in presence of something they consider new. Here is a leader in philosophy who has most respect for the old common sense as dis covered by laymen in the school of practical experience, where all of us are students, and may become use- ful teachers: Harvard college is just a build ing; outside is the World: I am orthodox; I accept what the best of my neighbors say; I accept that shrewd orthodoxy which the sentiment and practice of laymen maintain everywhere. When one encounters a good thing in reading, a pleasurable thrill follows I never greatly admired Queen Victoria, Possibly it was be cause her virtues were exploited so much; one soon gets too much of that But years ago I read that, as a girl, Victoria was compelled to learn housekeeping, and it gave me a pleasurable thrill, for I believe in training of that sort Occasion ally I have heard a woman say, boastingly, that she never had her hands in dishwater, and thereafter I think of her as I do of a profes- '28 Buick Standard Sedan Looks like new.

Heppner Garage sional actress, athlete, suffragtte, or follower of the 'occult" A great medical association lately held its annual convention. The best men in the profession were at tracted, and one old fellow, recog nized as without a peer in his line, bluntly told them that with all their Investigation, practically nothing of value in prolonging life had been discovered in many years: that old age is the same inexorable thing it has always been. . . . With all our learning, old things finally demon strate their supremacy over the new. Timro ia a kind nf woman men obey with a good deal of cheerful ness.

Hoss, secretary of state. In a total of 2,615 accidents dur ing the month, 1,185, or a total of 45 per cent were attributed to care lessness on the part of either mo torist or pedestrian, and 468, or 18 per cent were reported as right of way difficulties. Only 1.8 per cent of the accidents were caused by in toxicated drivers, according to the reports, but that factor in itself contributed 48 of the accidents, or better than one a day during the month.
