"Grace Sufficient"
"The grace of the Lord Jesus
Christ be with your spirit" Phil.
4.23.
Grace is an old-fashioned word.
not much heard in sermons these
modern days. Indeed it is not often
thought of by Christians. And yet
no word in the Bible is more prec
ious. 'The grace of the Lord Jesus
Christ" means more than mere gra-
ciousness, or beauty, or wisdom! It
means the Divine loving-kindness
of the Christ; it means all we re
vere and love in Jesus, the Saviour.
It means something besides all
this even. The word of the Lord to
Paul was: "My Grace is sufficient
for thee." We must not allow the
tremendous implication of these
words to escape ua Paul was to
know; to pass through; to exper
ience, no trial or situation in which
the Grace of Christ would fail but
he was to remember, always, that
thru the providence of God the all-
sufficient Grace of Jesus Christ was
his his spiritual reserve, and re
source and dynamic in every time
of trial. And we, too, a as did Paul,
may draw upon this limitless re
serve in every time of need.
Grace-Sufficient is the heart of
salvation it is the beauty of the
power of Christ it is the lure of
Christ's wisdom. By Grace we are
drawn to Jesus and there held. By
Grace shall the Church constrain,
thru love, sinners to come to Christ
Do you have a church home? If
not we invite you to come and wor
ship with us. Test the welcome of
this friendly church.
Hoss Advocates 50 Cut
In Automobile Licenses
Salem, Aug. 6. A cut in automo
bile license fees of at least one half
was urged again by Secretary of
State Hal E. Hoss, after analyzing
several hundred letters from dis
tressed motorists and on studying
reports from the Washington motor
vehicle divison, which show many
apparent evasions of the Oregon li
cense law.
'Real relief lies in a lower license
fee, as I have repeatedly pointed
out" said Hoss, "and I am certain
the next legislature will cut licenses
at least by one half. A year and a
half ago I urged action on this mat
ter, pointing out the difficulties we
would experience in Oregon with
low $3 flat fees both in California
and Washington. Experience has
developed just the conditions I an
ticipated and Oregon is losing thou
sands of dollars in license revenue
to adjoining states. I know from
the mail I receive that people gen
erally are ready to demand a lower
fee, and in my opinion it is. abso
lutely justified in order to relieve
the situation.
Among other predominating in
quiries in the correspondence of the
secretary of state during the last
two weeks has been the one, "What
has become of the governor's plan
for issuing stickers or permits for
licenses? Repeated announce
ments in the press have told of the
abandonment of the plan due to the
fact that the suggested procedure
was illegal and that only a change
in the law would permit any relief
from this angle, but many automo
bile owners still question what
method to follow to get relief from
annual payments at this time. "Due
to the fact that a session of the leg
islature has not been called to le
galize some relief measure for mo
tor vehicle owners, nothing can be
accomplished apparently until the
regular session in January, com
mented Hoss, when asked what ap
plicants might do to get help at this
time. "Those interested in lower
fees or an easier plan of payment
should talk to the members of the
legislature who will be glad un
doubtedly to have the opinion of
car owners."
Two methods were proposed one
whereby the secretary of state
would violate the law and illegally
issue stickers and the other "where
the governor would legally call a
special session and enact a law to
take care of the emergency. The
constitution says that no law shall
be set aside except by the legisla
ture, and the attorney-general told
Hoss plainly that he could not le
gally Issue quarterly fees. The sec
retary of state, In cooperation with
members of the legislature and
hundreds of automobile owners,
has urged the governor to call a
session to handle the problem as
provided by law.
COMMITTED TO HOSPITAL.
Following difficulties with neigh
bors in which he disrupted the
peace of the neighborhood, Silas A.
Harris, 87-year-old Civil war vet
eran, was committed to the state
hospital at Pendelton on Friday and
was escorted to the Institution by
Sheriff Bauman and Vernon Brown.
Mr. Harris has been residing alone
at Main and K streets for several
years, coming from Parkers Mill
where he homesteaded for many
years.

ter Rachel, Mrs. Anglin's father, R.
G. Sowers, and Miss Marie Scrlv-
ner left In the Anglln car for Port

ties as manager of the MacMarr

"DON'T SAY IT, DO IT,"
LOS ANGELES' MOTTO
(Continued from First Page)
ciency and the many traffic officers
an exemplification of courtesy.
Gamos "Done Up Brown"
No more classic- example of the
showmanship and executive ability
of the Los Angelan could be cited
than his manner of staging the
Olympic games now In progress, a
feat that has brought words of
great praise from leading pens of
the world. No stone was left un
turned to provide every convenience
and facility not only to make the
stay of both visiting participants
and spectators as pleasant as pos
sible, but to enable the competing
athletes from all climes to make
the very best possible showing in
the games.
A complete town was constructed
close In to the stadium to house the
men athletes and every modern fa
cility was put at their disposal to
care for their every need. The
thoroughness with which the mi
nutest details were taken care of is
indicated in the preparation of the
athletes meals. Before the various
contigents of athletes left home, the
local committee contacted their
managers requesting Information
concerning the articles of food each
desired and the method of prepar
ing them. Getting but slight re
sponse, the committee Itself went
to the trouble to Investigate the fa
vorite dishes of the nations repre
sented and provided 140 chefs who
were prepared to serve the athlete
of any country his favorite dish. Ip
addition pure distilled water was
1
supplied at the village to which
the trainers of the various teams
might add the exact amount of min
eral or salt ingredients to which his
athletes were accustomed or which
he deemed it necessary for them
to have.
Olympic village contains more
than 1200 people.
Opening Great Show
It is impossible to picture ade
quately the ceremony opening the
games, described by leading writ
ers as the most impressive cere
mony in the history of athletics.
Damon Runyon's story of It nearly
filled a page of a Los Angeles news
paper and it could easily have been
enlarged upon, though the account
was most glowing. Picture, if you
may, 105,000 people dressed In the
brightest colors, packed into a large
concrete bowl higher than Hepp
ner s three-story hotel and covering
a space larger than two blocks of
Heppners business district. The
greensward of the arena, around
which circles the fastest track on
which an Olympic athlete ever set
foot at)d the gray-white concrete
of the stadium form an ideal back
ground for the colorful display. The
crowd is tense, expectant, and gives
an ovation as Vice President Cur
tis is greeted at the stadium en
trance in the east With high top
hat in hand he is escorted slowly
around to the tribune of honor to
sit in the president's box just be
low the immense press section on
the south side, waving recognition
of the cheers as he goes. The 1200-
voice choir and the 1000-piece band,
dressed in gleaming white, strike up
The Stars and Stripes Forever, and
the opening ceremony has started,
to move through to conclusion with
every participant a finished actor
in this great drama of life.
Los Angeles provided a magnif
icent stage and conducted the show
in masterful style. But more mo
mentous was the assembling of the
pick of the world's physical man
hood and womanhood, coming from
nations so recently at war, to exalt
the highest ideals of sportsmanship
and good will the greatest peace
maneuver of the age.
Crowd Displays Patriotism.
It was plainly evident that pa
triotism is not a dead virtue as mul
titudes of handkerchiefs wiped tear
stained eyes following the beauti
ful rendition of The Star Spangled
Banner by the large choir and band.
The orderliness of the large crowd
and considerateness for each other
of the people who composed it were
a source of comment by many writ
ers. The ease and facility with
which the stadium was filled and
emptied without great congestion
was in itself a tribute to the fore
sightedness of those in charge, men
schooled in the handling of large
crowds.
Some writers saw a flaw in the
otherwise perfect picture when the
American athletes failed to salute
the vice president in their march
around the arena. This courtesy
was accorded the nations high of
ficial by contingents from other
countries, adding to the spirit of
friendliness which prevailed thru
out the ceremony. Significant was
the Invoking of divine blessing up
on the games by President Sproule
of the University of California in
his scholarly oration. The 17-word
declaration of Vice President Cur
tis, opening the games, and the
Olympic oath read by Lieut George
Calnan as all participants stood
with upraised right hands, were
gesturies of international signifi
cance. Lighting of the huge torch over
the stadium entrance, and releas
ing an immense flock of homing
pigeons, hearkened back to the
early beginnings of the Grecian
olympiad. A cannon salute echoed
tidings of the opening of the tenth
olympiad of the modern era.
Modern Age Depicted
The beauty of a huge boquet of
brightly-colored toy balloons which
rose slowly into the cloudless azure
sky of the beautiful July afternoon
elicited a gasp from the spectators.
As if to more completely Impress
one of the advanced age In which
the games are being staged, a mere
speck of an airplane in the high-air
stratum was busily engaged in
writing an immense sign across the
sky with smoke which streamed
from its tail; a blimp wafted lazily
aloft, and airplanes passed over the
stadium almost constantly, though
at sufficient height that the noise
of their motors did no Interfere
with the ceremonies.
So sensitive was the amplifying
system which carried the music and
speeches clearly to every part of
the stadium that when one speaker
opened his manuscript the rustle of
the paper was distinctly audible.
True hospitality Is reflected not
only in Los Angeles' staging of the
Olympic games, as visitors who at
tended any one of the many con
ventlons there preceding the games
could verify. Los Angeles has
learned to be a good host, and is
well repaid. No less than 130 con
ventions of national and Interna
tional scope will have met there by
the end of the year, adding greatly
to the city's income. Los Angeles
has found that It pays to be hospit
able.
