They also could see what they bought
and had the personal guarantee OF its
quality from a merchant whose whole
success depends upon satisfied Gus
toners. They also had the indefnable
sense of loyalty which comes Of pat

feeling to send money out Of town to
these parasitic mail order concerns.
1t is the home town merchant who
supports schools, churches and all the
other functions of community life that

home town merchants, you save
money, you help the town you live

THE NEED OF A LEAGUE.

David A. Pattullo, soldier and pub
licist, sums up the results of his OBJ
servations in Europe in the following
excerpt from an interesting article
in the Saturday Evening Post:
: Whatever path an investigator
follows in Europe-whether it be the
trail of the powers mighty schemes
of aggrsndizement, their jockeying
for advantage, the setting of one ma
tion against another, the maneuver-
ing to play both ends against the
middle, or the efforts to grab any
thing they can get away with--it
leads him. back TO the dire necessity
of an effective league of nations.
The prospect without league is ap-
palling, for the seeds of future wars
have been sswn broadcast in Europe
since the armistice."
Here is a potent league argument
from the pen of a trained observer.
And no league of nations can be eff

Change Wheat Grading.

An effort is being made 10 have
the legislature amend Section 6123 Of
the Oregon laws, proposing to change
the penalty on grain grades falling
under No. /. The measure has con-
siderable support in this county and
is intended to furnish relief to the
growers not alone of Umatilla coun.
ty, but of all Eastern Oregon, where
No. 1 wheat is scarce. Under the
present system Of grading grain,
says the East oregonian, wheat which
does not weigh so pounds to the BUSH
el, and weighs So pounds or more, is
graded as No. 2. The price paid for
this is three cents per bushel less
than for No. 1.

THE LOG OF THE COLUMBIA.

An informative leading editorial
in the Sunday oregonian embodies
facts of much historical interest
concerning another log of the Column
bia, but lately brought to light. The
record was kept by one John Bolt,
master mariner-a man Of evident
courage and resource. We have
room here but for one excerpt, re-
garding an Indian village which
Bolt, much against his will, was sent
by Captain Gray to destroy. 1t con-
tanned some 200 houses, and the fol-
lowing description shows that the
Indians of that early day were more
advanced in architecture than is
generally supposed:
Every door that you enter'd was
in resemblance to~a human and
beasts head, the passage being
through the mouth, besides which
there was much more rude carved
work about the dwellings, some Of
which was by no means inelegant.
This fine village, the work Of ages,
was in a short time totally de-
stroyed."
The Columbia was the first ship
to sail the waters of the mighty
river to which it gave its name.
1t was outfitted in Boston in the lat
ter part of the eighteenth century.
One of the owners, Charles Bulfnch,
Boston merchant referred to in the
Oregonian's editorial, was an ances-
tor Of Charles F. Bulfnch of Weston.
