The Results of Worry

tBy Dr Edmund B Hasiop Pendle-
ton, Ore,)
Worry is SO common to each of our
lives that the word apparently needs
little explanation.
We know more or less what the ef-
fects are for we see others buried un.
der the burden, How many though
really know what worry is?
Worry is a series OF thoughts. that
whirl around, jumping from point to
point recalling incidents of the past
and bearing on the one depressiils 9
thought in mind In other words.
Your thought assumes a circular path
and does not travel in straight lire.
Perhaps it is worry over past sins
past follies past mistakes or the mis-
cradle forhodings of the future, or
again it may be fear or disease, pow
erty or old age.
These are the thoughts that
crush, depresS and harrass the soul.

It is easy to prophesy that the ulti-

CURRENT THINKING
GREATEST BALLOON ALTITUDE.
(st. Louis Post Dispatch.l

est Louis Post Dispatch.)
According to the Geographical IT.
stitute at Pavia. Italy, the highest il
titude so far reached by any balloon
was 1O5,OSO feet, or slightly over is
miles above sea level: and 104,0S2
feet above actual ground, The bal
loon was of rubber and was filled
with hydrogen gas.
The actual distance traversed meas.
ured 1l0.064 feet. At height OF
59,l96 feet the temperature fell 10
minus 43 degrees and maintained
that figure all the balance of the way
up, with only slight variation.
The aviator, Giaccomo Piccolo. was
compelled to utilize his oxygen inhal-
ator after he reached the height Of
two miles, and reached ground in a
collapsed condition nevertheless.
Prof. Pericles GAMBIA, in the An
nall di Ufficio. states mat the bene-
fits to science from that ascent were
incalculable, as it proved mainly two
things; That the assumption of a
l5-mile atmosphere above the ground
is erroneous. and that the theory of
ether outside of that limit is not ad-
missible 'if it does not altogether do
away with the ether theory at any
height The word "ether" has been
formed to express the medium for
light beyond the assumed atmosphere,
This ascent establishes beyond perad-
venture that the medium is uniform
after the height of about $4,000 feet
was reached. If the atmospheric
consistency remains the same for 55,,
600 feet after that altitude, the as
that it will remain the same
further up reaches the dignity Of
presumption"
The Annali suggests that the data
furnished by this ascent must i'm
peratively, be substantiated by further
ascents before definite conclusionss
should be drawn from this one alone.

EFFICIENCY CALLS FOR
HONESTY

~ HERE are such frequent
W instances of partial sue.
cess by people who do
not guide by the compass of
honesty that some young men
come to the conclusion the old
adage about honesty being the
best policy has been set aside.
They forget that the excep-
ton only proves the rule and
fail to realize that where men
have succeeded by doubtful
practices they would general.
ly have had a longer and more
substantial success had they
been more scrupulous.
Honesty is just as good dope to-
day as it was when the world was
young. Honesty and square dealing
in business will win out against dis
honesty and erookedness every whack.
The honest merchant Will be on the
job and prosperin when the wise
heimer who sanded his sugar is in
disgrace in durance vile. Honesty is
the best policy not only as to profits.
but also as to a conscience that will
behave while you sleep"
Incidentally a mans consci-
ence is worth something to
him. A man with an over.
clouded conscience cannot be
efficient. He is too busy wor-
rying over what people might
do if they found him out.

A NEW INDUSTRY FOR
PENDLETON

m ENDLETON is to be
80 warmly congratulated on
the announcement made
at the Commercial Club last
evening regarding the estab-
lishment of the Blewett Har-
vester Co. here. If the final
details Of financing the enter
prise can be completed, as
seems assured, the city will
secure a new industry of sub
stantial size. There will be a
permanent force of 25 men en-
ployed in the plant from the
start. This will mean a valu.
able addition to our payroll.
In importance the new indus
try will rival the wooden mill,
a business of which Pendleton
is justly proud.
BY action Of the Commercial
club, after a searching investi-
cation by subcommittee and
the board of managers, the
Blewett enterprise has been
endorsed and committee
named to help sell the remain
der of the stock. The Com
mercial club has taken no such
action as this toward a private
affair since the day eight years
ago when the organization put
its shoulder to the wheel and
brought about the rehabilita-
ton of the PendletOn woolen
mills. For the work it did then
the club has been rewarded by
the permanent operation in
this city Of a successful busi-
ness that brings thousands Of
dollars to Pendleton each year
and gives us a widespread
fame In the light Of facts at
hand similar benefits if not
greater, may be expected from
the Blewett harvester.
Now that the Commercial
Club, after a thorough study
Of the subject. is committed
to this enterprise the right
course will be for local people
to unite in making the thing
succeed. The enterprise has
all the earmarks of a success.
If it proves to be such it will be
an asset on a par with the new
freight terminal, the state
hospital or the woolen mill. It
will mean new homes and new
business for Pendleton. It
will be something Of benefit to
practically every line of busi-
ness in the city.
Here is a chance to do some
thing for Pendleton's advance
ment. Help the cause along.
Towns are TO a large extent

EUGENE, ore, Feb. 21.-Business
in Eugene for the first seven weeks
of 1915 shows a decided improvement.
according to B. B. Vrundage, cashier
of the Bank of Commerce. Mr.
Brundage says that the most hopeful

more than 100 per cent more than the

PROSPEROUS AND NUMER-
Gus

M HlLE the various Euro
IL pean governments are
concerning themselves
with their gigantic casualty
lists the United States census
bureau is busy with estimates
of the probable population
now in this country.
Based on technical estimates
the bureau believes the natl.
.on's population at present is
lOl,20S,315. By July it is com.
puted the total will be over
102,000,000.
But that is not all of the
story. Our population consists
for the most part of able bod
led people. We do not have a
one armed or a one legged citi-
zenship. There is no surplus
of widows and orphans due to
the wholesale slaughter of hus-
bands and fathers.
To add further to the pic
ture it may be mentioned that
our people are prosperous,
The railroads are blocked with
business. Merchants and man.
ufacturers in the east and mid
die west are reported to be
overwhelmed with trade. The
west is also in good condition
though having no particular
boom as yet.
Compared with old world
conditions our showing is in
deed satisfactory.

1t has been the custom for years
with the Kings Daughters of Car
o to provide the needy of this city
with a good substantial box of pro-
visions and a few dainties at Christ
mas time. These boxes have always
been greatly appreciated by those re-
ceiving them and a great help through
the winter. While the recipients
might struggle along they are looked
for by some and counted On.
The Kings Daughters have been
called on to such an extent this fall
that they feel that if there is any n
in Our midst who would like to help
one less fortunate than themselves.
their help, however small or great,
would be greatly appreciated by this
order. There are sent in these boxes
groceries of all kinds, canned fruit,
homemade jelly and preserves, or
anges, chicken, duck or turkey, cauli-
flower and celery. Almost any thing
will be acceptable. This call will re-
main open till next Tuesday, Decem-

donate will kindly send same to Mrs.

Theory He Was
Shot by Woman

The fact that there. were no pow
der marks on the head of Fred Free
man, the contractor who was found
on Peavine street Friday afternoon
with a bullet wound above the right
temple. has lot caused District At
torney +. +. Lunsford to swerve from
his belief hat Freeman attempted to
take his own life.
DR.. A. Parker Lewis. the attending
physician who extracted the bullet,
asst night corroborated the state
ment made by one Of Freeman's
friends that there were no powder
marks around the wound or else
where on the head, a fact that ordin-
arily would be taken as conclusive
evidence that the shot was fired from
a distance.
District Attorney Lunsford last
night reiterated his original view of
the shooting, asserting: at is a plain
case of attempted suicide"
People who know Freeman and his
affairs are of the opinion that he did
not try to commit suicide. The
theory is held by some of them that
he was shot by a woman who lives IN
the neighborhood where he was
found Friday afternoon bleeding
from his wound.-Journal.
