M. J. Devln and daughter, Mrs.
Dessa Holfstetter, and Otillia re
turned the first of the week from a
motor trip which took them to Cul-de-Sac,
Idaho, and points In Wash
ington. At Cul-de-Sac they visited
at the home of M. N. Devln, brother
of Mr. Devln, whom he had not
seen for many years, and who has
been an invalid for some time. They
also visited relatives at Clarkaton
and Asotin, Wash. Mrs. Hoffstet
ter expects to return to Eugene for
the beginning of the school year to
take work in the education depart
ment James TrLumley, high school in
structor who has been spending the
summer hauling wood from the
mountains, had the misfortune
Tuesday evening of a spindle break
ing on a front wheel of his truck
while on his way down with a load.
The accident, near the Monahan
ranch on Willow creek, other than
letting the axle on the one side to
go down into the dirt and damaging
a fender and headlight, did not re
sult in injury to the driver or ser
ious damage to the truck.
Mr. and Mrs. M. R. Morgan, their
son Milton, and Norton Lundell,
son of Mr. and Mrs. E. R. Lundell,
all of lone, passed through Hepp
ner Monday, being on their way to
visit the old home of Mr. Morgan in
Missouri On the way going they
will also visit relatives in Kansas.
They will return through Califor
nia and expect to be absent for a
month. It has been 50 years since
Mr. Morgan left the old home in
Missouri.
Robert Jones of the Heppner
Transfer company. Is off the job
this week and getting about by the
use of crutches, the result of hav
ing the weight of a 50-gallon barrel
of vinegar drop on his right foot
Fortunately the arch of the foot
was not broken, though the member
is mighty sore and it will be several
days before he will be able to dis
card the crutches. He is being re
lieved by Bud Benton.
Mr. and Mrs. Russell E. Pratt re
turned home yesterday evening
from their vacation which took
them on a motor trip to Salem and
as far south as Zane Grey's camp
on the Rogue river, near where
they enjoyed fishing. While Mr.
Pratt was absent from his duties
as local manager of the Shell Oil
company, Lawrence Stevenson, for
mer Heppner boy, has been doing
relief duty here.
Guests at the home of Mr. and
Mrs. James T. Lumley over Sunday
were Mr. Lumley's parents, Mr. and
Mrs. Arthur Lumley, Mrs. Gene
Heath and daughter Fay of Mukll
teo, Wash., and Mr. Lumley's broth
er, Ellsworth, wife and son Jack, of
Great Falls, Mont, to which point
Mr. Lumley was returning to as
sume his position as instructor in
the Great Falls schools.
Mrs. W. T. Crowe and little niece,
Betty Crowe, who have been visit
ing at the home of Mrs. Crowe's
parents, Judge and Mrs. W. T.
Campbell, and with other relatives
in the county for the past six
weeks, departed for her home at
Jaffray, B. C, Tuesday. Judge
and Mrs. Campbell took them as far
as Walla Walla and they took the
stage from there.
Dr. N. E. Winnard and daughter,
Miss Charlotte Winnard, visited
over Monday with Heppner friends,
being on their way home to Eugene
from a motor trip. The Winnards
lived at Heppner from 1905 to 1919
when they moved to Eugene, and
have many warm friends made
during their residence here. Dr.
Winnard now practices at Eugene.
Harlan Devln who enjoyed a
week's vacation from his duties at
the MacMarr store with his family
at the home of his . sister, Mrs.
Adolph Hayden at Stanfleld, was
accompanied home by Mr. and Mrs.
Hayden the first of the week, who
visited at the home of Mrs. Hay
den's parents, Mr. and Mrs. S. P.
Devln.
Geo. Hays, Mrs. Sam Rothrock
and Edw. L. Hays were relatives
of the late Harry Hays coming over
from Pendleton Wednesday to at
tend the funeral services at Elks
temple.
Grub . . Cal Spencer way
The women of Berkshire County,
Massachusetts, are getting to be
about the best cooks I know of any
where. And that is all on account
of my neighbor, Cal Spencer.
After Cal's wife died, a couple of
years ago, he went into the kitchen
himself and made such good bread
and piea and doughnuts that his
daughter encouraged him to show
them at the West Stockbrldge
Grange Fair. Cal did, and he walk
ed off with first prize in five or six
classes.
This year he is going to send sam
ples of his culinary products to the
Berkshire County Fair at Great
Barrington, and the farm women of
the county are determined not to
let him get away with any blue rib
bons. As a result, Berkshire Coun
ty farmers are getting a chance to
sample some of the best pies and
doughnuts a man ever put a tooth
In.
Smokers lost last sanctum
One effect of the emancipation of
women has been to leave mere man
with very few places to go where
he can enjoy the society of his own
sex without feminine invasion.
The saloon used to be such a ref
uge, but they tell me that the speak
easies, in the big cities at least, have
as many women patrons as man.
They still don't let women into Ma
sonic and other lodges, but most of
the railroads are finding it impossi
ble to keep them out of the smok
ing cars. I traveled from New York
to Washington a short time ago and
found that the so-called "club car,"
formerly an exclusively male sanc
tum, had put in a lot of fancy sofas
and doodads for the benefit of wo
men sm6kers.
I see that the Santa Fe railroad
has put on a special smoker for wo
men. If the girls want to smoke,
they ought to have a place for it
where they wouldn't get in the
men's way.
Figure
man, oh man
I suppose everybody realizes that
the figure of the average American
man is not in the least like that of
the ancient Greek gods, whose stat
ues have been preserved from an
tiquity. But is was something of a
shock to me to see the spindle
shanked, pot-bellied plaster model
in the American Museum of Natur
al History which represents the av
erage young American male of to
day. Museum officials took the average
measurements of 100,000 American
soldiers on their return from the
World War, and have made a figure
which, probably, exactly represents
the typical American man of twenty-three
or twenty-four. From an
artistic point of view, he is nothing
pretty to look at He carries too
much stomach and not enough legs
to harmonize with the classical
ideal of masculine beauty.
Perhaps, in another ten thousand
years our artistic standards will
have changed. Perhaps, too, after
ten thousand years of mechanical
locomotion we won't need any legs
at all.
Amazing Olympic receipts
The most amazing statement I
have seen in print in years Is that
the Olympic Games Committee has
enough money on hand from admis
sion receipts to pay back the mil
lion dollars which the state of Cali
fornia lent in 1927 to finance the
preparations for the great interna
tional athletic tournament.
I do not remember ever having
heard of a state or a government
getting back any money that It had

amazing is that there were 800,000

with money left in the world.
Barometer .... suffering
Evangeline Booth says things are
getting better. She ought to know.
She is the head of the ope organi
zation in the world that Is closest
to human suffering. That is the
Salvation Army.
The Salvation Army reaches
down to the lowest strata of hu
manity. It deals with human beings
as individuals in trouble. Its offi
cers know better than anyone else
when times are easier. So when
Miss Booth says that things are
getting better, I, personally, would
place more reliance upon her re
port than on those of all the econ
omists and statisticians in the
world. The demands upon the Sal
vation Army for help are an accu
rate barometer of human necessi
ties. Wrinkles neckwear, skirts
The big industries of the future
are coming out of the researoh lab
oratories every day. The latest is
a process of treating cotton, rayon
and silk fabrics so that they will
not crease or retain permanent
wrinkles.
That should interest men as well
as women, for one of the hereto
fore unsolved problems of civiliza
tion has been how to wear a neck
tie more than three times without
getting it all wrinkled up! And
every woman who rides in an auto
mobile knows how difficult it is to
keep her skirt from showing
wrinkles.
ON OREGON FARMS
Boring The old idea that "you
get just about what you pay for"
didn't hold true this year in the
case of a fertilizer trial conducted
on the H. C. Compton berry farm
near here. In cooperation with the
county agent, Mr. Compton tried
out five different kinds or amounts
of fertilizers on his red raspberries,
leaving a check plot untreated for
comparison. The results this sea
son showed that the kind that cost
him next to the highest to apply
gave next to the lowest returns, and
the sort that cost him next to the
lowest gives the largest returns.
Corvallia Slow-revolving sprink
lers, each covering an area of 75
feet in diameter, are proving an ef
ficient "fool-proof" method of irri
gating 12 acres of pasture on the
Frank Hall place near here. The
system was installed as an experi
mental method of irrigating rough
land with a small water supply.
The sprinklers are kept in one spot
12 hours, making it convenient for
the man in charge of the dairy
herd to change them morning and
evening. The agricultural engineer
ing department of the state college
designed the system.
The Dalles Promising results
from grass and legume nurseries
in Wasco county are reported by G.
R. Hyslop of Oregon State college
who has inspected nurseries main
tained by farmers in this region.
For the dry lands crested wheat
grass, winter blue grass and sweet
clover look best this year. On
moist lands brome grass, meadow
grass, tall oat grass and the alfalfas
are doing best

A MAN COMES OUT
The days of Jesus' doubt are set
down as forty in number. It is easy
to imagine that lonely struggle. He
had left a good trade among people
who knew him and trusted him
and for what? To become a wan
dering preacher, talking to folks
who never heard of him? And what
was he to talk about? How, with
his lack of experience, should he
find words for his message? Where
should he begin? Who would lis
ten? Would they listen? Hadn't he
perhaps made a mistake?
Satan, says the narrative, tempt
ed him, saying: "You are hungry;
here are stones. Make them into
bread." The temptation of mater
ial success. It was entirely unnec
essary for him to be hungry ever.
He had a good trade; he knew well
enough that his organizing ability
was better than Joseph's. He could
build up a far more successful bus
iness and acquire comfort and
wealth. Why not?
Satan comes in again, according
to the narrative, taking him up in
to a high mountain and showing
him the kingdoms of the world.
"All these can be yours, if you will
only compromise." He could go to
Jerusalem and enter the priesthood;
that was a sure road to distinction
He could do good in that way, and
have the satisfaction of success as
well.
Or he might enter the public ser
vice, and seek political leadership.
There was plenty of discontent to
be capitalized, and he knew the

farmer and the laborer; he was one
of them; they would listen to him.
For forty days and nights the In
cessant fight went on, but once set
tled, it was settled forever. In the
calm of that wilderness there came
the majestic conviction which is the
very soul of leadership the faith
that his spirit was linked with the
Eternal, that God had sent him into
the world to do a work which no
one else could do, which if he ne
glected It would never be done.
Magnify this temptation scene as
greatly as you will; say that God
spoke more clearly to Jesus than
to any who has even lived. It is
true. But to every man of vision
the clear Voice speaks; there is no
great leadership where there is not
a mystic. Nothing splendid has
ever been achieved except by those
who dared believe that something
Inside themselves was superior to
circumstances. To choose the sure
thing is treason to the soul. . . .
If this was not the meaning of
the forty days in the wilderness, if
Jesus did not have a real tempta
tion which might have ended in his
going back to the bench at Nazar
eth, then the forty days' struggle
has no real significance to us. But
the temptation was real, and he con
quered. The youth who had been a car
penter stayed in the wilderness, a
man came out Not the full-fledged
master who, within the shadow of
the cross could cry, "I have over
come the world." He had still
much growth to make, much prog
ress in vision and self-confidence.
But the beginnings were there. Men
who looked upon him from that
hour felt the authority of one who
has put his spiritual house in or
der, and knows clearly what he is
about
