TWENTY YEARS FROM NOW
What does the future hold in
store for us as a nation?
Winthin the next twenty
years, unless there is a radical
change for the better in the re-
lations of capital to labor and
lal>or to capital, we will be torn
by internal dissensions, if not
prostrated by open civil war.
Present conditions can not en-
dure forever.
If the smouldering discontent
now prevalent breaks out into
revolution it will leave us a
nation of cripples from self in-
liicted wounds.
That will be the psychological
moment for a foreign nation
with a grudge to launch an in-
vasion against us with every
hope of definite results.
The animosity between capi-
tal and labor must be removed
in a fair and just manner, for
the permanent good of both
sides and of ihe millions of peo-
ple in between.
It is more profitable to pro-
vide for the future than to be-
moan the pact.
ONE LESSON LEARNED
GRANT COUNTY
POMONA GRANGE
The Pomona Grange will meet
in Medford, Saturday, Novem-
ber, 25. The morning session
will open promptly at 10:00 A.
M. and will be devoted to busi-
ness, reports from subordinate
Granges and echoes from the
National Grange now in session
at Wichita. Grant County Pom-
ona will be well represented at
the National Convention. Don't
fail to hear the reports of those
who have had the privilege of
seeing the National Grange at
work, as they will be inspira-
tional and interesting from be-
gining to end.
• All sessions during the day
will be closed with the excep-
tion of the lecture hour, just
after dinner, which will be open
J to the public. A splendid pro-
gram is being arranged by our
(Pomona Lecturer, Mrs. C. 11.
Mallory. Immediately after the
• lecture hour the Grange will
hold a short session in the 4th
degree, after which it will close
its work in the 4th degree and
topen in the 5th., when we ex-
; pect to initiate a large class into
ihe mysteries of this degree.
This will be the last meeting of
the Pomona before the next an-
nual session of the State Gran-
ge which will meet in Vineta
the second week in December.
We confidentially expect a large
delegation from each Grange in
the county.
Bring those lunch baskets
well filled and come early as it
will be a busy day.

What is the lesson you learn-
ed «t the recent election? Or
did you h-urn any lesson at all?
in Certain communities thru-
out ihp country the law abid-
ing iletuen. did less idle talk-
ing and more systematic work
in gt ting re.-pectability out to
the J* II.-,. As a result, a better
Cia.ss of people were electd to
office in such communities and
law enforcement will be more
rigid in the future.
In other sections respectabi-
l't. was asleep at the switch,
w.' ii the result thut justice and
riijht will lie sidetracked until
iune lor another election.
Kim id ability, when t-nerge-
v .a wide awake, will prevail,
.a asleep, it is of no avail.
j..i, as we see it, is the prin-
...al less >n to be learned from
reoent battle of the ballots.
(JET-TOGETHER CLUB
MET LAST THURSDAY
v riticism, if constructive, is
od for our community and for
people But criticism, with
ing Letter to offer, becomes
4.cssnnism, and is destructive,
li breeds dissatisfaction over
conditions that exist without of-
2 ering any means of correcting
them. The next time you feel
I ke criticising those in autho-
rity. be charitable rnaugh and
lair enough to withhold that
criticism until you are in a po-
sition to suggest a suitable
remedy. You may not speak at
all.
The Get- Together Club met
with Mrs. Guy .Mitchell, Thurs-
day, November 9th. Twelve
members were present, as fol-
.ows: Mesdames W. II. Wat-
son, Bryant, Van Sickle, Cross-
lin, Davis, Wircbaugh. Fink
A illiams, Webster. Mitchell. Es-
.ella Webster and Grandma
Mitchell, and one visitor, Mrs.
Daniel.
The afternoon was spent in
doing various kinds of needle
Aork, and after the lunch was
served by the hostess, all de-
parted for their homes, voting
Mrs. Mitchell a good entertain-
er.
West Virginia moonshiners
are said to Ik using skunks to
tutwit the revenue officers.
The scent of the skunk obliter-
ates that of the hootch, and of-
ficers are unable to locate tin
stills. Of course, if an odorifer-
ous animal happens to fall into
ti.<- mash it only serves to in-
civa-e the flavor of the forbid-
den Ov'Velagv.'.
