Max Schultz was in the city the I
first of the week from Freewater j
where he is engaged with his fath
er, H. A. Schultz. in conducting a
lunch counter and pastime. They
left Heppner a few months ago and
decided upon Freewater as a loca
tion in which to establish this bus
iness. Max says Freewater fruit
growers are not realizing a profit
on their crops this year, and that
tons of tomatoes and prunes are
rotting on the vines and trees which
may be had for the picking.
Mr. and Mrs. George Shirley of
Portland were guests of Mr. and
Mrs. Edward Chinn during the Ro
deo, returning home Sunday. Mr.
Shirley worked in Heppner during
the summer the First National
Bank building was erected, and he
remembered that it was a very hot
summer the most of the time he
was here. Mrs. Shirley was a teach
er in the mission school in Port
land attended by Mr. and Mrs.
Chinn and is an old time friend of
theirs.
The Misses Beth Bleakman and
Juanita Leathers, local teachers
who arrived in the city the end of
the week, spent most of the summer
in Portland where they attended
summer school. They suffered the
misfortune of being quarantined
for about three weeks because of
an outbreak of fever at the resi
dence in which they were living,
hence did not have a most enjoy
able time.
C. L. Sweek, circuit judge, took
time Saturday to mingle with many
of his Morrow county friends at the
Rodeo. His duties at Pendleton,
the big end of the district, keep
"Cal" too busy for him to greet nis
Morrow county friends as often as
he would like, but he couldn't pass
up the Rodeo In which he took a
large part in helping put across in
former years.
his many Morrow county friends Al
from Henry F. Blahm by the cog
nomen "Little Henry," was in the
city yesterday on business from his
home at Walla Walla. Henry F. is
"Big Henry" and also resides at
Walla Walla, to which city the
Blahm brothers removed from this
county several years ago.
Mrs. Ida Dutton, pioneer Morrow
county resident is up from her home
at Portland, a guest at tne nome
of Mr. and Mrs. J. J. Wightman
Mrs. Dutton has recovered quite
well from Injuries sustained in an
automobile accident near Pendleton
early in the summer.
Mr. and Mrs. E. E. Clark and son
Ernest returned home from their
vacation spent at Port Orford on
the coast in time for Rodeo and the
opening of school, and "Bub has
again taken his chair at the Clark
Barber shop.
R. J. Carsner, register of the U.
S. land office at The Dalles, was in
the city for the Rodeo and acted
as one of the timers in tne judges
stand, as well as enjoying a visit
with his many old time friends here
Mr. and Mrs. Reid Buseick of
Long Creek were among former
residents here for the Rodeo, vis
iting at the home of Mr. Buseick's
mother. Mrs. Ellen Schwarz. Kew
runs a store at Long Creek.
Gordon Ridings of Eugene, for
mer U. of O. basketball star who
was in charge of the Legion plunge
three years ago, visited during the
Rodeo at the home or Mr. ana Mrs.
M. D. Clark.
Mr. and Mrs. O. Hiding Beng
ston of Medford arrived in the city
Saturday evening and visited until
Monday at the home of Mrs. Beng-
ston's parents, Mr. and Mrs. K,
Benge.
F. E. Everson and son Norman
drove up from lone yesterday in a
school bus which young Everson
uses to transport pupils to the lone
schools from an outlying district,
Mrs. Alice Adkins left Tuesday
evening for Yakima, Wash., to visit
for several weeks with her son Har
ley and family, and with a brother
residing near that place.
Mrs. Wm. Powell of Vancouver,
Wash., was a visitor at the home of
her mother, Mrs. Dan Rice, in this
city the past week. She departed
for her home Monday.
Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Erwin and
party, from La Mar, Wash., were
among former Morrow county
folks who enjoyed greeting friends
during the Rodeo.
Mr. and Mrs. C. L. Kelthley of
Pendleton, former Heppner resi
dents, made their annual visit at
Rodeo time, enjoying a visit with
old time friends.
Mr, and Mrs. Stanley Reavls of
Moro came over for part of the Ro
deo and visited with friends. "Stan"
was formerly with the local P. P.
& L, office.
Mrs. Adclyn O'Shea arrived from
her home at Ellensburg, Wash., in
time for the opening of school to
assume her duties as fourth grade
teacher.
John Farley, former Heppner
boy who has charge of Wilson's
store at John Day, came over for
the last day of the Rodeo.
Strolling along the bank of a
trout stream on my farm the other
day I saw a fish capture an incau
tious frog and proceed to devour it.
Crossing the meadow on my way
back to the house I saw a hawk
pounce down upon a baby rabbit
and heard the victim's shrill scream
as the bird's talons pierced its skin.
At the edge of my wife's flower
garden I encountered a small,
striped snake in the act of devour
ine a toad.
That, I reflected, is life as the
animals experience it They prey
upon each other and none Is saie.
But they have no other way to live.
It would be as foolish to call the
hawk, the snake or the fish wicked
as it would be to call humans wicK
ed because they, too, kill animals for
their food.
SIoddv sentimentalists endow the
lower animals with the same sensi
bilities and emotions as humans,
and make a great fuss about the
cruelty of life. No one who eats
meat is in a position to criticise
the hawk that eats rabbits and in
time, a few thousand years, per
haps, men may get over the urge
to kill other men because they dress
differently, or speak a different lan
guage, or get the better of them in
trade.
the new editor
a survival
what they had carefully hoarded
away, fearing to put in Into the
banks.
"We took in more than ten thous
and dollars in the old-fashioned
large-sized currency on the first
day of the salc,H the manager told
me. "Many or tne Dins were actual
ly moldy, and almost all of them
were creased and damp."
There are still hundreds of mil-
loins of dollars of these old "big
bills" unaccounted for, the Treas
ury reports.
LIGHT HOGS NOW
MUCH IN DEMAND
Studies Made at OSC Shows Trend
in Market Wants and How
to Grow This Type.
I hereby extend the hand of fel
lowship to Al Smith, editor. I have
not always agreed with the Hon. Al
fred E. Smith, politician, but when
he began to write for the papers a
couple of years back, I thought I
saw the makings of a newspaper
man in him.
Now that he is out of politics
so far as the present campaign is
concerned, at any rate and is a
full-fledged editor with a magazine
of his own, Al and I ought to get
along fine. I'll say this for Al, he
puts a punch in whatever ne writes.
He has ideas.
In the New Outlook, of which he
is to be the responsible editor, he
will doubtless say a lot of things
ably will say a great many things
with which I won't agree, ana proD
with which I will be in perfect har
mony. Anyway, like a lot of other
Americans, I'm going to watch for
that first issue under his direction.
'Cello . . the masterpiece
The greatest maker of violon
cellos was Nicholas Amltti, who
died two hundred years ago In Cre
mona, Italy. The greatest maker
of bows for violins and 'cellos was
Alphonse Tourte of Paris, who died
many years ago. The greatest ceil
ist. until his death, was Altreao
Piattl of London, who owned Ama
ti's finest 'cello and played it with
Tourte's finest bow.
Probably the greatest living 'cell
ist is Willem Willeke, born in Aus
tria of a Dutch father and an Eng
lish-Hungarian mother and now an
American citizen. He has owned
Piattl's Amati 'cello for a long time.
At a dinner given by music lovers
in Willeke's honor the other night
in New York, the Tourte bow which
Piattl used was given to the 'cellist,
reuniting two famous Instruments
Nobody ever heard such music as
Willem Willeke produced when he
drew that bow across the strings of
that 'cello.
Credit . . the original idea
When the five-day week and the
"staggering" of hours of employ
ment so that everybody will have
job become the general practice in
the United States and I see signs
which make me believe that they
are coming perhaps the credit will
go to the man who started the pro
jeot. perhaps not.
The man is Isador Teitelbaum,
who makes and sells fine furniture
In New York. One day last fall Mr.
Teitelbaum, who is a deep studen
of economic questions, outlined his
Idea of the short week and the wid
er distribution of jobs. "Come ou
to the national convention of the
Furniture association and tell them
about it," his friend urged. M
Teitelbaum had never made a pub
lie speech in his life, but he talked
that convention, representing em
ployers of 400,000 men and women,
Into Indorsing his plan.
Since then the shorter week and
the staggering hours system has
been put forward by hundreds of
others, and it was one of the big
features of the President's indus
trial conference a couple of weeks
ago. Somebody else may get the
credit for starting it, which Is why
I want It put In the record now
that it was Isador Teitelbaum-g or
iginal idea.
Hoarders . . . still with us
Oregon hog raisers have been
marketing 64 per cent of their hogs
at the most desirable weight in
Portland, and 42 per cent at the
desirable weight at Willamette val
ley points, according to a study re
centlv made by the animal husband-
ry department at the Oregon State
college experiment station, 'ine re
port on the study has just been is
sued as station bulletin No. 297.
"The market demand for a leaner
type of hog is the result of falling
off of export demand for lard and
diminished use of this product in
this country, and of the desire of
consumers for leaner cuts," says
the authors. H. A. Lindgren, A. W.
Oliver and E. L. Potter.
The college was requested to
make a study of the radical change
that took place in demand and con
sider both the angle of consumer
demand and the possibility of the
grower making the maximum profit
in raising hog3 that best suit the
trade.
The investigators found that the
most desirable type at present is
the hoe that weights 160 to 200
pounds and has a hard finish free
from excessive lardiness. Hogs
weighing more than 200 pounds sold
for 50 cents to ?1 less than the light
er ones.
Hogs too thin in flesh are also
discounted about the same amount
those somewhat too heavy. Ac
tual observance of the market re
vealed that when there was a light
run of hogs buyers paid little at
tention to these variations in weight
or finish.
Hoes weiehing more than 200
pounds put on a larger daily gain
but require mtjre grain to make one
pound of gain than the lighter
weight hogs, the production phase
of the study showed. The grower is
justified in producing the slightly
heavier 200 to 225 pound hog when
100 pounds of live hog bring as
much as the cost of 690 pounds of
grain.

The Voice of Authority
Success is always exciting; we
never grow tired of asking what
and how. What, then, were the
principal elements in Jesus' power
over men? How was it that the
boy from a country village became
the greatest leader?
First of all he had the voice ana
manner of the leader the personal
magntism which begets loyalty and
commands respect. The beginnings
of it were present in him even as
boy. John felt them.
On the day when John looked up
from the river where he was bap
tizing converts and saw Jesus
standing on the bank, he drew back
in protest "1 have need to be bap
tized of thee," he exclaimed, "and
comest thou to me?"
The lesser man recognized the
greater instinctively. We speak of
personal magnetism as though there
were something mysterious about
it a magnetic quality bestowed on
one in a thousand and denied to all
the rest. This is not true. The
essential element in personal mag
netism is a consuming sincerity
an overwhelming faith in the im
portance of the work one has to do.
Most of us go through the world
mentally divided aganst ourselves.
We wonder whether we are in the
right jobs, whether we are making
the right investments, whether, af
ter all, anything is as important as
it seems to be. Our enemies are
those of our own being and crea
tion. Instinctively we wait for a
commanding voice for one who
shall say authoritatively, "I have
the truth. This way lies happiness
and salvation." There was in Jesus
supremely that quality of convic
tion.
Even very successful people were
moved by it. Jesus had been in
Jerusalem only a day or two when
there came a knock at his door at
night. He opened it to find Nico
demus, one of the principal men of
the city; a member of the Sanhe
drin, a supreme court judge. One
feels the dramatic quality of the
meeting the young, almost un
known teacher and the great man,
half curious, half convinced.
It would have been easy to make
a mistake. Jesus might very nat
urally have expressed his sense of
honor at the' visit; have said: "I
appreciate your coming, sir. You
are an older man and successful. I
am just starting on my work. I
should like to have you advise me
as to how I may best proceed. But
there was no such note in the in
terviewno effort to make it easy
for this notable visitor to become
a convert One catches his breath
involuntarily at the audacity of the
speech:
"Verily, verily, I say unto you,
Nicodemus, except you are born
again you can not see the kingdom
of Heaven." And a few moments
later, "If I have not told you earth
ly things and you have not believed,
how shall you believe if I tell you
heavenly things?"
The famous visitor did not enroll
as a disciple, was not lnvitea to
enroll; but he never forgot the im
pression made by the young mans
amazing self-assurance. In a few
weeks the crowds along the shores
of the Sea of Gallilee were to feel
the same power.

MARY A. NOTSON. Reporter.
Whiting Williams, famous sociol
ogist and national labor investigate
or, says, "No matter how many
speakeasies there are in the coun
try they do not sell as much liquor
in one week as a few saloons in
those communities sold in one day
before prohibition."
There were speakeasies in the
days of the saloon, too. The Min
neapolis Journal, March, 1908, stat
ed that the liquor dealers them
selves admitted that there were 4000
'blind pigs" in Minneapolis. Re
member, too, that It is the drinkers,
not the dries, who make speak
easies. If citizens who think them
selves good citizens will cease to
patronize the speakeasy and the
bootlegger, there will soon be none
of these law violators. A little com
mon sense applied to this question
will show that the claim that pro
hibition makes speakeasies and
bootleggers is simply silly. The
person who peddles that kind or
propaganda Is either a fool or
thinks you are one. The law against
larceny does not make horse
thieves; the law against burglary
does not make burglars.
While the number of arrests does
not prove the exact amount or
crime in one period as compared
with another, it is interesting and
very suggestive that the World Al
manac for 1932 shows that, not
withstanding the increase In popu
lation, the arrests for homicide
were 31 per cent greater in New
York in preprohibition days than
since, felonies 11 per cent greater,
and drunkenness 129 per cent great
er in the wet years. The survey
made under the direction of Judge
Sonstobv of tho Municipal Court
of Chicago showed a marked de
crease in every one of the fifteen
major offenses, notwithstanding all
the so-oallcd "racketeering."
. Alexander G. Jamie, director of
Chicago's Secret Six, says that vio
lations of prohibition In the last
year or two have shrunk to a size
that can no longer command the
chief attention of the forces waging
war on the underworld. He means
to Include all violations of law con
nected with prohibition. He asserts
that several other lines of criminal
activity bring more revenue than
bootlegging to the underworld. He
says that alcohol links the lowest
elements of the underworld with
the millionaires who are financing
the fight on prohibition because the
overthrow of prohibition will lower
their taxes, expecting the taxes to
come from the wives and children
of the workingmen who would
spend their wages in saloons as
they did before prohibition. He
says that four per cent beer would
not do away with the criminal use
of the machine gun, the bomb, the
acid viol, torch and quick getaway
afforded by auto and airplane.
Every supporter of the liquor
traffic is In part responsible for the
crime caused by liquor. Who wants
to feel that he Is In a measure re
sponsible for crime just for the sake
of saving a little In taxes?
