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

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.

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.

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.
