HEPPNER GAZETTE TIMES, HEPPNER, OREGON, THURSDAY, FEB. 26, 1931. PAGE THREE MARTYRS It was once my privilege to wit ness the establishment of a new re ligion. The founder was John Alexander Dowie, who first appeared in the Chicago newspapers as an obscure exhorter with a talent for strong language. Though he went through the city and surburbs holding out door meetings, he attracted com paratively little attention until one night a hoodlum hit him in the eye with a rotten egg. At once he assumed new charac ter and importance. Instead of be ing merely a sensational denouncer he became an incipient martyr a prophet persecuted for his faith. Converts flocked to his banner, mony poured in, he founded his own. city, and finally proclaimed himself the reincarnation of Elijah. He had undoubted talent, but it was the stupidity of his opponents which persecuted him into success. The fiery old doctor, with his pic turesque white whiskers, has long since passed across the river, but I think about him whenever the newspapers begin to talk about the danger of "Red Riots" and the po lice break up a harmless mass meet ing with their clubs. England, older and wiser than we in many respects, manages these things much better. She knows that an agitator is harmless unless you try to suppress him. Only then does he become a menace. She sets aside one end of Hyde Park for the ex clusive use of the agitators.. There, every afternoon, and especially on Sundays, they meet and shoot off their faces against the government, the church and whatever else they dislike. , One of the wisest things Presi dent Hoover has done was to re lease the foolish young men and wo men who were arrested for picket ing the White House. He said that he did not propose to let any silly folks aehieve "cheap martyrdom" at the government's expense. A wise man of an earlier day was a Pharisee named Gamaliel. When the first persecution of the Chris tians began he protested. "Refrain from these men and let them alone, for if this coun sel of this work be of men, it will come to naught. But if it be of God, ye cannot oerthrow it, lest haply ye be found even to fight against God." If the Pharisees had taken his advice the new and struggling lit lte sect might conceivably have passed out in obscurity. But they went on with their persecutions and "the blood of the martyrs became the seed of the church." W. C. T. U. NOTES. MARY A. NOTSON, Reporter. The Duluth (Minn.) News-Tribune is one of the newspapers owned by Paul Block, who actively cham pions the cause of the wets. It is a little more frank in stating its views than is most of the wet press. Read carefully the following state ment clipped from a recent Sunday morning issue of the News-Tribune: "Wets and drys agree that what ever happens, the saloon must not come back. This agreement is very superficial. It is in the word rath er than in the spirit. Wheni the drys say that the saloon must not come back they mean that prohibi tion shall continue to be the law of the land "But when the wets shout that the saloon must not come back, they are making a dull concession to assumed superiority. They are not wholly sincere. The wets really want the saloon back, shorn of its major evils. They want drinking places established under legal reg ulations, as they now are in Scot land, Canada, France, Germany, and the Scandinavian countries. Some of them want one form, some want another. . . . The wets are for such things. Their saying that the saloon must ' not come back doesn't mean very much." The News-Tribune is to be com- HHIc C RTHDAY Another year of BETTEB foods and BETTER food stores 1 Another year of service and steady growth!

The fact that there Is no definite plan put forth by the wets to take the place of prohibition should discredit them. If they were honestly trying to find a better way to handle the liquor question, before they demand re peal of the eighteenth amendment, they should offer some plan upon which they agree in the main. The drys will gladly welcome a better way to deal with the liquor ques tion if it can be found, but until a better way is offered, backed by a reasonable following, they will stand pat for prohibition!. Many good people become pan icky about the success of prohi bition, not realizing that propagan da is spread by an active and well financed organization. In Its offi cial report to the clerk of the House of Representatives, the Association Against the Prohibition Amend ment states that it spent $853,860 in 1930. This is a much larger sum than either the Democratic or Re publican party spent in the cam paign to elect members of the house and senate. Much of this propa ganda was a direct assault upon the constitution and was intended to encourage the violation of law. This was done to bolster up the only argument the wets have ad vanced for the repeal of the am endment that it can't be enforced. When the American people sur render to a bunch of rebels who violate the law and then give as a reason for its repeal that It can't be enforced, it will be time to pull down Old Glory and hang out on the capital the sign, "Gone out of business." George Washington sup pressed the first rebellion against the United States. It was the whis key rebellion in Pennsylvania. Shall we do less? 3 years for $5 where can you get more for your money? The G. T. Recipes Prepared for Lamb Week by College Few meat dishes, to the average taste, are more delicious than well prepared cuts of prime young lamb, and few make more useful left overs, says the school of home econ omics of Oregon State college. It is considered one of the best meats for slicing cold, and left-overs can be used in numerous attractive forms, such as shepherd's pie, cro quettes, meat cakes, souffle and others. A mimeographed pamphlet of recipes, time for cooking, and oth er facts concerning lamb has just been issued in connection with Na tional Lamb Week, February 23 to 28, by the home economics division of the Oregon extension service, and are available upon request at the college as HE-luo. A few of the recipes are as follows: Lamb Pattie: Have lamb from shoulder, breast or neck ground. Shape into round, fiat cakes, wrap a strip of bacon around each and fasten with a toothpick. Season with salt and pepper and dredge lightly with flour. Fry the patties slowly in a little melted fat until nicely browned and tender. Lamb and Apples: Brown lamb chops lightly; cover the bottom of a baking dish with chops and sprin kle with salt. Add a thick layer of quartered and cored apples, Season with brown sugar. Then add an other layer of each. Fill the dish in this manner and bake from 30 to 45 minutes at 450 F. Roast Shoulder ot Lamb: Have a shoulder boned and rolled. Wipe with a damp cloth, sprinkle with salt and pepper and rub well with flour. Put on a rack in an uncov ered roaster and sear for 30 min utes in a hot oven (480 degrees F.. Then reduce the temperature and continue cooking, allowing about 30 minutes to the pound. Basting sev eral times during roasting with mint or currant jelly will give a delicate taste to both the meat and the gravy. Variation: After a shoulder is boned, spread with a well-seasoned bread stuffing, using 3 cups of crumbs and seasonings of onion, celery, parsley, pepper and salt For variation and 1-4 cup cooked chopped bacon and 1 cup chopped sour apple. Lamb Pie: Have 2 cups left-over cooked lamb, chopped and diced. Brown together with 1 small onion, chopped, in 2 tablespoons fat. Add 1 cup of potato and 1-4 cup carrots, both cooked and diced, and 1-2 cup of green peas. Then add 2 cups thickened lamb stock or gravy, and 2 tablespoons catsup or chill sauce, salt and pepper and flour. Cook 10 minutes, or until meat is thorough ly heated. Pour mixture into bak ing dish or casserole, cover top with pastry or biscuit dough and bake in a hot oven (450 degrees F.) about 20 to 25 minutes or until the dough is well done and light brown in color. Biscuit dough will take somewhat longer to bake than pastry. Serve pie hot in same dish in which it is baked. Pie may be baked in indi vidual dishes. Jim Burnside was in town from his Hardman ranch on Saturday. He reports very fine weather condi tions out his way, and had just fin ished plowing 150 acres of land, the soil turning up fine. He has had to feed some during the winter, but has been able to work stock all the time. Local ads in the Gazette Times bring results. COME OUT!
