The first was organization of the Nyssa Post of the American Legion last Friday night with 47 charter mem- ben. A fine start, it is a challenge to the future of the splendid organization. It is hoped that every ex-service man in Nyssa and the Owyhee community will join the post. The second event was the first weekly luncheon of the Nyssa Commercial club Monday. It enabled business men to start the New Year, with the best of resolutions and a pleasant taste in the mouth. These luncheons should be a success. They will bring to gether in a pleasant way representatives from all interests in the city. All community rivalry, if there is any, will be laid aside in the common purpose of having a pleasant time and taking a look into the future. Town betterment will be the fruit of combined effort. There is much to be done but with confidence in Nyssa, no task is too great for community men. Let the majority set the course. Harmony knows no failure.

Pal- iett, registrar, show. Of the nearly 3,000 students on the campus at Eugene, 797, or 37 per cent are wholly self- supporting. About one-third of this number are women. In the present unemployment situation it is highly desir able that young men and women stay in school, educators point out, rather than seek full time employment. In this way, more work will be available for others, and the stud ents will also be benefitting by added education. Student jobs range from washing dishes in sorority houses to clerking and even acting as expert accountants ' for business firms. Employment is controlled by a central agency on the campus, which seeks to place competent students in the various positions. — THE PEOPLE WANT RESULTS the news and in our courts.

City Transfer THE GRANGE CHALLENGE Any organization that can live for more than a half century and through this period merit the commendation and esteem of men in every walk of life—statesmen, edu cators and business men—must have rendered real service to rural life, and must have done so in a broad manner, considering not only the greatest good of the greatest number, but the welfare of the whole nation. The Grange is an organization of fanners, for farm ers and by farmers. It includes the fanner and his family; its plan of organization comprehends the local, or town ship, the Pomona or county units and the various State Granges bound together in a strong national fraternity. The Grange is more than a farmers’ organization. It is a real farm fraternity, seeking primarily the welfare of rural life and at the same time proclaiming a patriotism and cit izenship of the loftiest type. The Grange challenges the support of fair minded men and women interested in the welfare of farm life, who have good moral character and who are willing to work with others for the advancement of their common cause. The cost of Grange membership is not large but the op portunities for service is large. Those interested in the far mer’s problems in the Nyssa country will soon have an op portunity to more thoroughly discuss the benefit and rea son for organization of a grange with Chas. Wicklander, district deputy, as he advises he will come to Nyssa for that purpose in the near future. Don M . Graham THE INSURANCE MAN f , ■ John Bye and Ann Piedmont. 1, 9. 3 : Stanley C.
