At a meeting of the executive

day morning, Doris Burchell and
Alfred Van Winkle were appointed
to take charge of the next assem
bly program which will be given
Thursday, Oct 19.
The assembly program Thursday

cess. The scene presented was that
of a broadcasting room in which
the announcer, Claud Wilcox, intro
duced the various acts. Alberta
Fulgham took the part of Miss Ir
ma Keys, pianist of sour notes;
Rose Thornburg as Sarah Sackem,
gave a funny version of the modern

they showed last week will put a
real team on the field. A return
game will be played with Heppner

library practice this week.
Everyone termed the freshman
return party an unusual success.
Bernice Martin, the class president,
with the aid of several good com
mittees and the entire class, work
ed for several days in advance on
the preparations. The idea worked
out was quite unique. The guests
found themselves in a cabaret with
tables scattered here and there
about the gym. After securing
partners the "customers" were
seated and served by the boys of
the freshman class, who were dress
ed as waiters. The refreshments
consisted of fruit jello, sandwiches,

OPINIONS
An editor whose very integrity
appeals strongly to me, wrote a
short time ago: "Temperance had
had a terrific jolt a body blow."
About twenty states had just voted
for a repeal of a constitutional
amendment, the notable eighteenth.
Now, if anybody should preach
"temperance," I think the family
doctor should; he believes in It,
knowing well the penalties paid by
the intemperate. Bear in mind, I
do not use alcoholics at all except
for medicine. As a beverage I have
no use for whiskey or beer; and I
do not believe beer is a very useful
medicine, if a medicine at all.
But the point I wish to empha
size is, "temperance" has had no
body blow! I don't care if all the
states go for repeal of this amend
ment, temperance will not receive
a body blow.
Temperate people are not harm
ed by such blows, nor were they
shocked at the passage of the
eighteenth amendment. Temperate
people have a way of "staying put."
They feel that the action of this
prohibition movement did not help
temperance any. That's, the rea
son so many states are going
against the tried and failed ex
periment. When people tell an editor they
want him to print the truth they
mean the truth about the other fel
low. The principal drawback to
printing the truth Is Invariably
when it is done somebody's toes get
stepped on.

Situation Review Explains J
Delay in Land Bank Loans
An explanation of why farmers
who have applied for loans from
Federal Land banks have had to
wait is given in the mid-September
review of the agricultural sit
uation just released by the Oregon
State College Extension service.
More than 184,000 such applications
were pending on August 31, which
is enough to keep even the present
expanded force of appraisers busy
for three months.
Furthermore, says the report,
new applications are coming in
faster than appraisals are being
made, although the number of ap
praisers has been increased from
210 on April 1 to 1,734 on Septem
ber 1.
The circular also contains much
statistical and marketing Informa
tion, including farm price trends,
horticultural commodity outlooks,
and notes on farm commodity pro
duction for 1933.
"The purchasing power of farm
products has lost about one-half of
the grand 20 point advance made
from March to July," says the cir
cular. 'The drop in the exchange
value of farm products in general
was attributed partly to the decline
in prices for farm products since
July, and partly to the upward
trend in prices for things farmers
buy. Farm purchasing power is
now around 60 per cent of pre-war
parity."
In reviewing the nut outlook, it is
shown that domestic consumption
