VIOLATORS BEWARE
Starting this week the Gazette Times, along
with many other Oregon newspapers, start the
publication of names of drivers who have had
their drivers licese suspended. The name are given
publicity not for the purpose of causing such
persons additional embarrassment but to advise
the general public that those persons, If they
continue to drive as some are doing, are doing so
in violation of the law. In most cases suspensions
were ordered because those drivers were a menace,
in some degree, to the careful driver.
This paper will publish only the names of
those persons living in Morrow county and such
publication will not be "played up" but they will
appear, as they occur, with other court news.
It is our hope that such publication will serve
as a deterrent to persons who might be inclined to
violate traffic laws.
POLITICS PLAYED A HAND
Oregon's Democratic party pretty well proved
why they have not held too man state offices in
past years by their recent actions during the
special session of the legislature. They were work
ing, first of all, for their own political benefit, and
second for the people of the state.
True, the Republicans may have been stretch
ing a point a little in wanting all the treasury
surplus returned because nobody could prove that
all the money would be available to refund, but
the Demos showed their hand when they tried
very hard to save the money to be able to make
political hay with it during the next session. Such
action can hardly be called working for the best
interests of the state, and that's what our elected
representatives are sent to Salem for.
ON ART APPRECIATION
None-of-our-business - but-wecant-reslst-the-temptation
department.
Been enjoying the reader comment recently In
the EO about Dirtyshoes Thompson's views on the
Pendleton ballet presentation. When we read the
original we thought it might bring forth quite a
variety of criticism and it sure did.
So we've been informed, ballet, like other
forms of art, has a story to tell and, like all stories
or works of art, how such works are interpreted
is subject to various interpretations of the artist
or the viewer. We can well understand that not
every viewer of ballet or an abstract painting,
either, for example, will see in the work the same
thing that someone else might. Thompson saw it
in one light while some of the connoisseurs of fine
art apparently looked at the show a little dif
ferently. Who is to say htat Dirtyshoes didn't enjoy
the presentation just as much as the other group?
In fact, we think he did a pretty good job of in
terpreting what he saw and putting it in a form
that the general reading public could understand.
Just because he didn't see the same things as
someone else doesn't mean he's wrong, does it?

FAMILY NIGHTS
Jack Sumner were recent consign
ers to the Round-Up Hereford

time 45 bulls and 11 heifers were
sold. Those who have a record of
buying bulls at this sale from
our county are Wilkinson Estate,

Heppner, and Marlon Palmer,
lone.
Considerable Interest has been
shown In the purchase of Tllla
mook Dairy Herd Improvement
association heifer calves by Mor
row county farmers this fall
Word comes from Howard Smith
Tillamook county agent that this
interest seems to prevail all over
this fall from the number of in
quiries that they have had. For
those who are interested in these
calves, it might be a good plan
to get your order in early. You
can take delivery any time you
wish. Information and order
blanks are available at this of
fice.

farmers attend the banquet or not
we think it might be a good idea
to take advantage of this week

relations between the farmer and
our city people.
