THIS MA Y ENTERTAIN,
INVALIDED.

He limps along the city street,
Men pass him with pitying
glance;
He is not there, but on the sweet
And troubled plains of France.
Once more he marches with the guns,
Reading the way by merry signs,
His Regent street through trenches
runs,
His Strand among the pines.
For there his comrades jest and fight,
And others sleep in that fair land;
They call him back in dreams Of
night
To join their dwindl.ng band
He may not go; on him must lie
The doom, through peaceful years
to live.
To have q sword he cannot ply
A life he cannot give.

A TEMPTING PRIZE

TF the Oregon-California
land grant is disposed of
to settlers" so as to bring
the lands under immediate tax
alton it is easy to see what will
happen.
Agents of the railroad or of
timber interests will very
promptly file upon all the
choice tracts. The good tim
Der will be taken before the
sun goes down. The entrymen
will get some $4O0 or $500
each for their trouble and one
or two concerns handling the
deal will take in property
worth from 40 to so millions.
To allow the grant land to
be disposed of in the old time
manner would be to pull off
the most gigantic steal in the
history of Oregon. The prize
is something tremendously
tempting.
To what extent will this
great plundering be attempt
ed?

A MOST WORTHY SUBJECT

n HE East Oregonian shares
W the view of the Rev. H.
H. Hubbell that newSpa-
per space may we'll pe devoted
to the subject of religion. Not
to narrow or Sectarian topics,
but to religion in the broader
sense which calls for human
betterment through closer
harmony with God and the
laws of nature.
The field is not restricted
for in its true sense religion is
widespread. 1t is found not
only in churches but in home
stead cabins, on the range.
around the fireside and in the
heart of every human not
wholly debased. 1t is. what
differentiates man from the
brute and the term religious
might we'll be applied to
whatever is helpful and up
lifting to humankind.
In the subject of religion as
here defined this newspaper is
greatly, interested because its
readers are interested and
should be. The columns of the
paper are open for messages
of this nature from all having
thoughts worth telling. They
are open on equal terms to the
orthodox and those who are
not, to Protestant and to Cath
olic. The only requirements
will be that such messages be
broad and encouraging, not Of
fensive to those holding differ
ent views, and that brevity be
observed.

HAY FOR HEALTH

~HE hay diet for health"
*W is the advice of DR.. AL
exander Blackford, of
Chicago, who has experimental
successfully with a compressed
compound of alfalfa.
To a Chicago correspondent
of The New York World the
eminent doctor explains that
he doesn't mean regular new
mown hay, but tincture of it
"a brand-new discovery which
has only one drawback; it
makes a person so hungry it is
necessary to eat five or six
times a day."
The doctor says that this
feature will have to be elimi-
mated before the best results
can be obtained.
"We experimental on
II students at Hahnemann
Medical college," said DR..
.Blackford, "and in each
instance the subject be-
came so hungry he was
forced to visit a restaur-
ant between meals"
He affirms that the hay diet
is the foe of Indigestion; but it
is also the friend of the rest
aurant keepers, with the alb
normal appetite it creates.
With the experiment under
way it is hoped that it will be.

for breakfast he will not have
to supplement his simple,
healthful meal with buck

TWO SORTS OF BLOCK.
AIDING

n HOUGH the submarine is
W very effective when
brought into use there
are some drawbacks about that
sort of a starvation blockade.
The chief weakness comes from
the fact that a cargo may be
destroyed but not captured.
Hence while the enemy may be
hurt, the raiding nation gains
nothing directly.
While Germany has been do
ing some destructive work with
her submarines the English
navy has been taking enemy
ships into port and confiscat-
ing. the cargoes.
In the proceedings to con
demn three Norwegian steam
erS recently, the British Attor-
ney-General said that 38 other
vessels with similar cargoes
had been captured. The car
goes of these ships consisted
for the most part of farm pro-
duce, meat from the great Am
erican packing houses and lard.
Altogether, no less than 23,-
274,5S0 pounds of meat and
meat products were included
in the cargoes. And, of course
Great Britain gets most, if not
all, of this, though she must
pay for it at the market rates.
1t is self-evident that, but for
the moral effect sought to be
brought about by the sinking
of ships and its accompanying
loss of life, Great Britain bene-
fits much more by its policy of
seizure than Germany can hope
to do by its policy of torpedo
ing. AS starvation policy, the
submarine warfare will not be
a striking success, as long as
Great Britain can go on un-
checked in her policy of seiz-
ure and forfeiture of food and
other products.

Preaching Economy in War

(From The New York World.)
The leaders in the British govern
ment, from Premier Asquith down.
are now preaching the need Of eco
nomy among the people First came
their war campaign for more men.
Then the campaign for more muni-
tions Now campaign for economy.
The other two campaigns seem to be
proceeding successfully. The cam
paign to induce economy among the
people that they may buy more gov
ernment bonds viii hardly fare as
well.
War is notoriousiy breeder Of ex-
travsgance. The government Of
country at war sets the example and
creates conditions which stimulate
imitation among the people. Public
credit is stretched 10 the utmost for
war funds. General initiation follows.
Prices are high Profits at first and
then wages rise with prices. There is
work for everybody at the higher
wages In special employments wher-
ever the old employments fail. Peo-
pie in industry have more money to
spend than before. and except among
the few who have become habituated
TO saving by long continued effort,
they spend more money The govern
ment is pouring out money without
stint or regard TO the future. They
catch the spirit and act accordingly
as individuals.

Years the impression is common with
US that the dark days Of the Civil War
in the North were time Of great
personal self-denial and economy in
support Of the war with treasure az
with life. II was, in fact, a period Of
such initiation and extravaganza and
waste as we had not seen before and
have not experienced since.
Speculation ran riot in every mar
ket and every commodity. Everybody
seemed to be getting rich and every
body seemed to be running into debt

time which tried mems souls" that
the distemper Of needless extrava-
gance entered the American blood,
and II has never since been wholly
dislodged.
The present war is sinking much
deeper into the nations involved and
commanding a far larger relative
drain upon the lives and property Of
the people. But except where popular
economy can be compelled, as in Ger
many. 1t will be as idle for premiers
to preach economy as to bay at the

CONGRATULATIONS

~ HE people of Pendleton

mittee that handled the
affair are to be most heartily
congratulated on the compile
ton of the beautiful natatori-
um in Roundup park. That
institution represents a civic
endeavor which for pure merit
could be surpassed with diff
Guilty. The blessings to come
from the natatorium will be
immense and the institution
may we'll be classed as an as
set of the finest character. 1t
is not intended as a money
maker. 1t is more. 1t is a man
maker, a woman maker and an
agency for the promotion OF
healthy, wholesome growth OF
boys and girls. The value Of
the place is immeasurable in
standards Of the dollar. To
bring about the building of the
natatorium the committee in
charge worked hard and con-
tinuously, both in securing the
money and in seeing that every
dollar was made to count. The
committee is composed of
Clarence Bishop, Judge c. H..
Marsh, George Hartman, Leon
Cohen, G. |. Ladow and DR..
Guy Boyden. They certainly
performed their duty in cap
able manner.

CURRENT THINKING
FORGETTING DANGER.
BY Ben H. Williams. Statisti-

II is common fact that those who
confront great hazards day after day
will often come To a state Of mind in
which they no longer realize that
danger exists, Cases coming before
the State Industrial Accident Com
mission show that unsafe methods are
continually employed in the indus
tries of Oregon
II is, among other things, com.
mon practice to remove sticks and
sawdust from running saws with the
fingers and to clean machinery while
in motion, such lax methods result
in a high accident rate. They illus
rate the need of safety education.
There should be in each plant cen
tral agency whose task 1t is to keen
constantly before the men the neces-
sity for care even at the expense OF
haste,
There comes to mind the fate of
one man who, working in a hazardous
occupation year after year became
dulled to the dangers of his work.
Jones was a feller in the woods of
western oregon, He was about 55
Years of age. Ever since he had run
away from home as boy his life had
been spent in mining and logging in
the west. He was sturdy and self
confident, He knew the woods like

was no danger in the woods for him.

Jones had two children, a boy and

other tree. The butt kicked back and l
struck Jones, hurting him 30 feet
down the hill. He lay without moving
muscle. No stimulants could ar

sciousness and died the following day. /
Yes, he had grown to believe that
there was no danger in the woods.
There are no doubt men killed

In that identical manner. But he did
not know of these. There was no

that is the fate of the families of those

WHY NOT GET THIS?

m HERE is no place more tit

the location Of a truly
great statue to that daring
character, the western cowboy.
1t is an opportune time to
take steps to secure this work
of art. A sculptor of genuine
merit and with a world wide
reputation has been making
his home here. He likes Pen
dleton and the west and is
ready to provide the statue at
a price that covers little more
than the actual cost of the
bronze cast into form.
Outside people Of influence
and wealth are interested in
the proposal to erect Mr.. Proc
tors statue of the "Buckaroo"
in the park by the depot. They
suggest they are ready to con-
tribute substantially to a fund
for this purpose.
Under these conditions an
opportunity is open such as
Pendleton cannot well neglect.

thing novel and distinctive.

that will stand forever, will be
an interesting sight to visitors
and local people and at the
same time will immortalize
type of manhood that is pass.

that the Proctor statue Of the
