THE GASOLLVE BOOST. GASOLINE is now selling five cents higher than last week and harvest time is upon us. The Standard Oil company comes out with the announcement that the Increase is necessary that the oil industry may be saved from bank ruptcy and utter ruin. Good! There is not an American citizen with an ounce of brains who wants to see the oil industry, or any other legitimate industry, for that matter, destroyed. The Standard moguls tell us that for many weeks the business has been crippled by profitless prices, and adds: "Thousands of employees have been vitally affected, scores of thousands of stockholders have suf fered reduced dividends, bankrupt cies have occurred with the pros pect of additional ones, market val ues of petroleum securities have un dergone great shrinkage, the pro ducer has produced at a loss, the refiner has manufactured without profit, the retailer has sold gasoline without a living wage. "If further disaster is to be avoid ed, prices of crude oil and gaso line must be maintained at new and higher levels." Now that the hike in retail prices has come about let us hope that there will be an immediate change for the better. That the producers in these Uni ted States will get the advantage of the hike That the thousands upon thous ands of toilers who have been laid off their jobs throughout the indus try will be put back to work. That the major companies will cease importing oil from South America, produced there under cheap labor conditions, so that the independent producers in this coun try may have an opportunity to market at least one half of what they are capable of producing. In the past, we have noted, the price of crude in the field has ad vanced before the retail prices are hiked, but in these times it seems that business is all upside down. The major companies have posted price in the East Texts field of 25c per barrel and are actually buying it at 10c per barrel. A barrel of crude produces several gallons of gasoline. Then, there is the lu bricating and other oils, and final ly, but not least, the residue is sold for fuel and road making purposes. A gallon of gasoline sold in Hepp ner brings twice as much as a bar rel of East Texas high gravity crude can be sold for. However, Oregon and Washington are at the mercy of the major companies con trolling the California output, and it is these same outfits and their allied companies which control the marketing of petroleum's refined products not only on the Pacific coast, but of the United States and the world. They have not only) why we say that their annual pil sacked the people of a nation, but . grimage to Washington is of im Sunday School Lesson nn International Sunday School Lesion for Jnne 28 JESUS THE WORLD'S SAVIOTTB REV. SAMUEL D. PRICE, D. D. With this study we concluded a six months course on the Life of Christ during which the texts have been taken from Luke. Read at least from Luke 14 to the end of the book, and make a survey of the entire gospel if possible. You have been journeying with Jesus and the disciples from Galilee to Jerusalem by way of Perea. Parables were used frequently to drive home the truth to indifferent or to eager lis teners. Then we came to Jericho with Him, after fording the Jordan near that ancient city. ' The steep climb was then made from Jericho to Bethany, where the Teacher paused during the obser vance of the Jewish Sabbath. After sundown of the Sabbath a banquet was provided at the home of a man who had been cured of his leprosy. When she thought no one would observe her act of testimony, Mary the sister of Lazarus came with her precious ointment and anointed Jesus. The odour disclosed her deed and Judas began to criticize, but the Master defended her. Early on the first day of the week Jesus, and others who had come up for the Passover, went In procession to the Holy City. Incidents are thick along the way. On Thursday the Passover was celebrated and Lord's Supper instituted. From the upper room the little company went to the Garden of Gethsemane where Judas'a kiss led to the arrest. Trials followed to the number of six after which He was taken to Calvary for the terrible crucifixion. When he said "It Is finished" atonement had been made for the slnB of mankind. The grave could not hold even His body and on Sunday the resurrec tion took place. they have tucked the people of all nations into their sack and they will do just as they propose. It appears to us that here is an opportunity for the farmers of the northwest to get together with the independent producers of the south west and do some figuring. Surely there is a common ground on which both can operate and operate fa vorably for all concerned. We feel sure that gasoline can be laid down in Morrow county at a cost of not more than 15c, and right here at harvest time this saving of six to seven cents per gallon may mean the difference between loss and suc cess to the tillers of the soil. THE MOST IMPORTANT CONVENTION. Autocaster Service. WASHINGTON city has been the scene of many important meet ings and conventions in the past year, but none of the gatherings held there has held quite the im portance to the future of the Uni ted States as the one which began on the 17th of June. Great gatherings of statesmen have been held In Washington to discuss the reduction of war debts. How could anything be more im portant to the future of the United States than that? The heads of great industries have met there to consider how to put prosperity back on its feet Can there be anything more important to our nation than that? Every few weeks lately po litical groups have been meeting in Washington to try to pick the best man for the next President of the United States. Who would say that anything could be more im portant than that? Yet there is a gathering this week in Washington which is of greater importance than all of these. It is the annual camp-convention of the 4-H Clubs. Two boys, two girls and two club leaders from each state are living in tents on the grounds of the Department of Agriculture, to exchange ideas about what? About the future farmers of the United States and their wives. That is the most important thing for our country's future. There can t be any question about it. Nothing that happens to the generation that is now passing is of great importance; what is really important to the wel fare of the nation is the character, the integrity, the standards and ideals of the generation which is about to take up the reins where we older ones are beginning to drop them. And so far as the agricultural and rural life of the United States is concerned, the destiny of the nation lies in the hands of these boys and girls now in Washington, and those they represent. There are nearly a million of them now in the 4-H Clubs. Nearly a million farm boys and girls pledged to devote Head, Heart, Hands and Health to the making of better farms, better farm homes, better communities, better conditions for everybody. They are making better citizens out of themselves in the process, too. These boys and girls of today will be the leaders of tomorrow. They will lead better than their predecessors did, because they have a better training, a better under standing of the really important things of life most of all because in their 4-H Clubs they have been taught the need and the significance of teamwork, of cooperation for the common good. All of the pallative remedies for hard times and the other ills that beset us are of no permanent avail Nothing can carry our nation on to the goal of permanent peace and continuous prosperity, of complete freedom for everybody to work out his and her own destiny with unim paired opportunity, but the train ing of the young people to think clearly, to work hard, to keep their bodies sound and their hearts up lifted with the joy of creative achievement. That is the sort of training the boys and girls of the 4-H Clubs are getting, and that is mensely greater significance than all the palaverings of all the states men, humanitarians and politicians that have ever been held there TIME TO BEGIN SPENDING. Autocaster Service. THIS is the time to begin putting 1 money back Into circulation. There is more money in bank, sub ject to the checks of individuals. than at any previous time in our national history. It is lying there because its owners have been wait ing for the business situation to "touch bottom. All the indications now are that it has touched bottom and has be gun to rise. At the moment, retail prices of every sort of commodity are lower than they have been since the days before the war. A dollar will buy as much of almost every thing today as a dollar and a half would buy two years ago. The re duction in the price of raw material is now being fully reflected in the price of manufactured goods to the consumer. There may never be another op portunity, In the lifetime of most of us, to make a dollar go as far as It will go today. We would never ad vise anybody to go contrary to Ben jamin Franklin's wise counsel when he said: "Never buy anything you don't want merely because It Is cheap." But we know that thous ands of people in this community and vicinity have been putting off buying things which they really want, believing that they would go lower. We feel justified In saying to those people that the time has come for them to buy. Business in gen eral Is beginning to pick up rapidly. We can't tell how far up it Is go ing, and probably we shall not have another such "boom" as we had three and four years ago at least not right away. But with business picking up appreciably, money for wages and materials getting back Into circulation, the number of buy erg will increase and the law of supply and demand will attend to sending retail prices upward again, If ever the advice to "buy now' was good, It Is today. Alone At Last If V TTDE Ry M-- JOHN JOSEPH GAINESCMDi THE EVIDENCE My readers may possibly wonder why I am so frequently denouncing the six o'clock dinner; this, when so many of our foremost citizens in dulge the feast as a sort of triumph i of civilization. (1) From a study of aged men and women, I find the longest-lived to be those who are hearty breakfast-eaters, and who do not load the digestive tract at the evening meal. (2) From a study of vital statis tics, I find that six o'clock dinner devotees succumb to "heart disease" or cerebral hemorrhage, never la ter than the middle sixties. These are city-dwellers, who are too busy to eat necessary meals until the day's business is done. (3) If I were to inject the ex pressed juice of the average six o' clock dinner into a patient's veins. t feel sure that I would kill him in stantly! Well the six o'clock glut ton gets those juices into his veins more slowly, hence he is slower about dying of "heart disease" than he'd be with intravenous injection. (4) The tired body the tired, "When you turn your tail lights on your home town then will the head lights of your home town grow dim and finally flicker out," is a truth every citizen of this com munity should give heed to. Com munity loyalty is the thing that builds cities. This goes all the way around. The merchant who buys his printed matter in the city is doing the very thing he condemns in his fellow citizen who goes to the city to buy clothes. Keep your headlights focused on your home town and your home town will grow and some day maybe it will be your home city. The President suggests to the world powers that a postponement of war debts be agreed upon. Per sonally we have no war debt but a flock of personal ones which we re spectfully refer to the president for Immediate action. BUD '' BUB y 21 t totFY FAMDOf- - k m half-exhausted nervous system can not supply the necessary gastric and pancreatic fluids to digest a heavy six o'clock feed; hence the juices of the "gorge" are taken into the system by absorption, and in a shape that cannot be utilized in the repair of bodily tire not all, nor half of it can be said to be fit. (5) Hence, it is carried with the blood-current, an active poison, un fit for the human systemic repair. Hence the eater does not want breakfast the next morning has a feeble appetite at noon but is ready for the disappointing over feed at the following six o'clock. The very arteries of the heart be come poisoned slowly. The vessels of the brain give way in their walls. Short breath and apoplectic symp toms develop slowly, insidiously. They finally kill. Any thinking physician, if he will observe carefully, cannot fail to agree with me. Lastly, if I want to have a groggy, heavy, indolent feel ing tomorrow, I will stuff my car cass with a six o'clock dinner to night, at the church dinner that I am billed to attend.
