EDITORIAL
What a Changed World!
A year ago everything was hustle and bustb.
The entire country was geared to war production
and everything was done with an accent on win
ning. This fever heat continued until the boys be
gan to come home From foreign soil, then we re
laxed a bit and began to consider the problems of
reconversion.
Six months after Japan surrendered what do
we find? We arc still looking forward to recon
version in many lines. Instead of being able to
stock up with some badly needed things we find
a growing scarcity of them. One may step into
a haberdashery and be measured up for a suit of
clothes. The dealer takes the order on condition
that you are willing to watt from GO to 90 days for
delivery. One inquires about shirts and gets the
old banana replyyes we have none. The same
goes for underwear and ctiier garments dear to a
man's heart and practically necessary to his well
being. Merchants and salesmen have learned a
new language and a new technique. Instead of
trying to sell you something they are forced to
teach you how to get along without the things
you have been accustomed to. and have been able
to buy in the past.
Perhaps time will change all this but the situa
tion leads- us to quote on ficiitiouc Ue;t...r A.
Kiky "What a rcvoltm' develop;, icnt this has
turned out to be!"

Latdistring on Outside
It is the hope of the committees in charge
that the returned service people will respond to
the hospitable invitation to attend the all-county
banquet to be held at the Elks hall in Heppner
Saturday evening. Great preparations are bo:n:$
made a lot of evcr-lk-atfood prewired nn 1 a pro
gram in -which the veterans themselves will be the
principal performers, :nd it w ;U f?ivc the crn.-'iiYt-tee
and all others concerned with staging the
)anquet the k-:cir.:stf satisfaction to' tr a;e to
greet as nearly 100 percent of the veterans as
possible.
While the banquet is 'being put on in" (Heppner
it is not a Heppner aiu;i- but a big county parly.
The people wives, mothers, fathers, brothers,
sisters, friends- are taking this means of enures- -
ing 'their appreciation fcr the services given by
those who wore the uniforms of their country and
for the great happiness that so many were priv
ileged to return.
The latch string is on the outer side of the door
for the returned veterans. Don't be afraid to pull
it;
A World Day of Prayer
Friday, March 8 is designated as World Day
of Prayer. It is a-day set aside for all creeds, all
denominations, in every country to devote careful
thought to the subject of permanent peace and
to put those thoughts into a plea to the Father of
mankind for guidance and inspiration in making
the world safe for posterity. It we would avert a
second Hiroshima or Nagasaki catastrophe, and
we know not when such a blow may fall in this
unsettled world of today, we should not leave all
the praying for those who profess Christianity.
Certainly preservation of peace is something in
which each anu everyone of us is vitally interest
ed. Whether a member of the church, a brother-in-law
or sister-in-law to the church, or a rank
outsider, yo;t ca,i lend your influence in laying
the foundation lor a permanent peace by engag
ing a moment in prayer, either silent or audible.

Mayo;- Turner's announcement that he does
i-.it wi.-h to l.o cc.ydercd a candidate for the of-f'-'w
for another term has not found general ac
ceptance among people who are in-sympathy with
progressive measures instituted during his in
cumbency. ;the very reasons be gave why he felt
he shuuki step out seem the most logical why he
should remain for at least another two years. He
has served through a most trying period, yet a
program designed to not only meet expansion but
accelerate it has come out of the war era and it
r.ppears ih.'.t the one who has had a guiding hatw
in formulating the program should have a hand in
bnngii;g :t to inntjon.
. - 'loo developments referred to in the mayor's
letter can I e brought to reality only by farsighted.
and courageous leadership such as he has dis
played .aid it is hoped he will reconsider his avow
e J iia.ni.e.i ot keeping his name oif the ballot.

With diamonds we sell there can be no shadow

beauty and for craftsmanship in the popular
