EDISON
Think for a minute of what one
man, still active in his 84th year,
has done to change the world in a
single lifetime. He made the tele
phone a practical instrument He
invented the incandescent light He
invented the phonograph. He in
vented the motion picture. Imag
ine a world without those inven
tions. It is impossible, except to
those whose memories, like my own,
go back to the time when Edison
was known only as the inventor of
the multi-plex telegraph.
Now he has found a way to get
rubber out of goldenrod, not as a
commercial product but as a war
reserve resource. And he is still
working.
"A man can't die so long as he
keeps busy," he told me once.
MUSIC
Good music is increasing in pop
ularity, but there are more musi
cians out of work than ever before.
We are getting our music more and
more by mechanical methods of re
production. First the phonograph, then the
radio, now the sound motion pic
tures, have brought the very best
music, played and sung by the high
est grade of musical talent, within
the reach of everybody. The larg
est piano company in America went
into bankruptcy recently. Pianos
are still sold, and always will be.
There will always be youngsters
with talent coming along to produce
the good music of tomorrow. And
there are more "freak" instruments
being sold than ver saxophones,
ukeleles and the like. There are
probably more first-class singers of
American birth and training, ap
pearing in public now than ever be
fore. But the second-rate and hope
lessly third-rate musicians no long
er command audiences. The Ameri
can people have developed a higher
taste in music.
CHURCHES
"I could empty every country
church and half the city churches
on Sunday mornings by broadcast
ing better sermons and services
than all but a few great churches
offer," the head of one of the great
broadcasting chains said to me the
other day.
The time is coming when small
town churches will install radio sets
and get their music and their ser
mons out of the air. They will
need no local preacher, but instead
will become centers for community
work in the name of God, making
it their charge to protect the moral
and physical health of their com
munities, to inspire the amusements
and elevate the educational stand
ards of their young folk.
RUBBER
Rubber gets its name because its
first use was to rub out pencil
marks. The Spanish conquistadores
found Mexican and Brazilian chil
dren playing with balls of this pe
culiar gum, but it was three hun
dred years before it became a com
mercial product Mackintosh, the
Scotchman, used it first to water
proof cloth; Goodyear, the Ameri
can, found how to take the sticki
ness out while retaining the elasticity.
A very small amount of commer
cial rubber is grown in the United
States, in California and Arizona,
where it is produced from the
guayule shrub. Most of it comes
from the East Indies and South
America. Harvey Firestone is
planting a million acres to rubber
trees in Liberia, Africa. Unskilled
cheap labor is necessary to keep the
price of rubber down. A difference
of 50 cents a pound in the price of
crude rubber may mean a difference
of $10 in the price of automobile
tires.
The next step will be the discov
ery of a method of reclaiming old
rubber and using it again.
LAWS
It ought to be apparent by this
time that the effort to make people
good by passing laws is a failure.
The other day a judge in New York
sentenced a young woman to prison
for life. He had no option; it was
her fourth conviction for larceny
and under the Baumes law a fourth
offender must be locked up until he
or she dies. That isn't going to do
this girl or society any good. The
time when something could have
been done about her case was when
she was a child. She grew up with
out education, without moral sense,
without any feeling of responsibil
ity. The only reason we put people in
prison or execute them is because
we are afraid of them. Our prison
population has doubled in twenty
years. As we grow more prosper
ous we become more afraid of the
unprosperous. It might be a good
plan to spend as much money trying
to keep people out of prison as we
spend now to keep them in it
CLVB FLAYS BRIDGE.
Members of the Eastern Star So
cial club met Saturday afternoon at
the Masonic temple to take part in
a bridge party at which Miss Mary
Patterson and Mrs. W. R. Poulson
were hostesses. Six tables were in
play with honors going to Mrs. C.
W. McNamer and Mrs. Charles
Vaughn. The St Patrick's motif
was carried out in the party. Re
freshments of cottage cheese, rib
bon cheese sandwiches, green fruit
gelatin salad, in shamrock design,
and coffee were served by the hos
tesses.
Mr. and Mrs. W. C. McCarty were
in Heppner from The Dalles Sunday
visiting friends and relatives.

Cottage Pie
Cut cold mutton into inch dice
and place in baking dish. Cover
with hot gravy. A thinly sliced
onion may be added if liked. Boil,
mash and season one quart of pota
toes and heap on the pudding dish.
Bake in the oven until the potatoes
are browned.
To Frost the Cake
The making of a cake is in the
frosting. That is, a good cake may
be ruined by poor frosting and a
mediocre cake may be much im
proved by good frosting. Marsh
mallow frosting is delicious. This is
the way to make it:
Heat in a double boiler one-fourth
a pound of marshmallows cut up
into small pieces. When very soft
add two tablespoons of boiling wa
ter, cover, and let cook, until smooth.
Meantime, heat six tablespoons of
sugar in two tablespoons of milk
over the fire; stir until sugar is

A MESSAGE TO
HOUSE WIVES.
While you are in the
midst of Spring Clean
ing why not think of
making needed alter
ations and repairs on
your old home? A bit
of architectural plan
ning by the Tum-A-Lum,
a few inexpen
s i v e additions and
changes in your old
home will sometimes
transform it from a
shabby, unsightly
shack, into a home of
comfort, charm and
value. It will cost you
nothing to inquire
about our plans of re
modeling and financ
ing. No, Panatrope, the

"Agnes, you don't
love me, and since
you'll never love me,
there's only one thing
I can do. I'll kill my
self," said the young
man passionately.
"How?" she inquir
ed. "I'll shoot myself."
"Then won't you be
so kind as to buy the
revolver in James'
hardware store. James
is my fiance, and I
would like to help him
whenever possible."
This is also our idea,
buy at home whenever
possible.
