.PENOLETON MEAT
COMPANY is AN UP

SANITARY IN EVERY RESPECT
ITS PEMECO BRAND Is LO-
CALLY POPULAR.

"Pemeco." do YOU know what It is?
Most Pendleton people know that
the name is applied TO "A particular
brand Of meats and good many know
that the particular brand Is turned
out by the Pendleton Meat Co.. the
name IN fact being composed OF the
first two letters OF each OF the three
words OF the corporation title. but
few appreciate the institution behind
the name.
The abattoir and packing plant,
conducted by the Pendleton Meat Co.
is not the largest industry in the
city but no list OF the principal in
stitutions, that furnish steady employ
ment for wage earners and that turn
out products for which there is moro
than a local demand, would be COM
plete that did not include the name
OF the Pendleton Meat Co. II isn't to
Pendleton what the big packing hous-
es are TO Chicago and Kansas City, but
II is. nevertheless, something of which
the city may well be proud.
The name slaughter house" is re.
pugnant to most people because they
associate with II foul odors and Of.
fensive sights. No one, however, no
matter how sensitive his nose or how
weak his stomach, could find aught
at the Plant Of the Pendleton Meat
Co, at which to shudder. Indeed, the
and employees Of that In
stitutiOn keep the various rooms, even
the one in which the killing is done
as clean as any housewives kitchen,

The remark was made OF ! singer.
he had no expression Ia his voice."
The same may be said Of All the con-
ditions OF life. The principal differ
ences that one notes in conduct are
the spirit which appears in express
sion. The value of q deed consists
in the soul that one puts into it. One
may be perfectly accurate in voice,
motion, language and the formal parts
Of behavior, and vet there il no spirit
In it, no expression Of what the real
person is behind the deed. So, after
all, the most important thing IN in
dividual life is its expression. The
only truth Of a statement, q song. an
act, is the spirit that accompanies
them. This makes expression the
principal object of education. There
can be no education without the devel
opment Of the spirit. A man who may
know how to sing, but does not sing,
is not educated. Education is the most
practical matter. It's object is to do
good, and there is no way Of doing
good except through the direction of
the spirit Leave that out Of consid-
Grafton, and education becomes no
more than a pile of dead leaves.

State Health Commissioner Dixon
OF Pennsylvania has made a valuable
discovery in ~ascertaining through act
ual test that ducks eat up mosquito
larvae in water and do it thoroughly.
The many official pamphlets and books
that have been published on mosquito
determination since it's d~isease-carry-
Ing character has been demonstrated
do not as a rule, speak of the ducks
Partially to q mosquito larvae diet.
Small fish are given credit for de-
stroying mosquito larvae, the ever
present minnow in particular. But,
according to Doctor Dixon's test, the
duck does much better at that work
than the fish. The duck is a wader,
as we'll as swimmer. It searches for
food in the shadows and slime Of
marshes where even the smallest fish
Is not able to go, where mosquito
larvae may abound. It is shallow,
quiet water that the mosquito pre-
fers, and if the duck likes the mos
quito larvae it is often able to get
at It when fish cannot reach it.

"Writhed in agony" These are some
of the expressions sprinkled down
the page, and they do not seem too
strong. The first fall was not proper
ly a fall at all; one of the contestants
had secured a hold causing such
frightful pain that the other had to
yield. In the second bout, the victor
made another attack on his oppon-

til the weaker mar went down. The
time consumed in these gentle opera

wonder the crowd Kissed and

favor from a modern community until
it becomes a little more lively and q
good deal less brutal.
