because of its central location,
Pendleton has been designated for
many favors. politically. educationally
and otherwise Here is located the
eastern Oregon branch office of the
collector of internal revenue. The
summer session of the Oregon State
Normal School was held for six weeks
in Pendleton during this year The
state supreme court meets twice an
nually here to hear cases argued from
the counties of Eastern Oregon. The
United States district court usually
holds one session a year in the feder-
al building here.
Headquarters for navy recruiting
for the counties of Eastern Oregon and
for two counties of Southeastern
Washington are located in this city
The forest service has headquarters
here for the Wenaha and umatilla
national forests.
All these favors are the result of
the spirit of Pendleton, the willingness
to throw aside the covers while the
rest of the world sleeps to get into
the field when the rest are rubbing
their eyes, and to have done by noon
a good days work. Pendleton does
not always wait for the opportunities
to come, she goes out and makes
them. If it is work that is needed,
there are workers a plenty. If 1t is
a dollar that is needed. there are two

iieve in Pendleton, believe in them

is the biggest little city in the world
