Thursday May 20, 1915 THE MOTHER'S MOTIVE The National Congress of Mothers which closed its annual session in Portland on Saturday, passed res olutions that show the real feelings of the women of the world regard ing war. " "Regardless of who the victors may be, the greatest devastation of war is seen in the' next genenera tion, fathered by those declared un fit to be. killed but who, neverthe less, are the only ones left to father the children of the next genera tion. Every war is a war against woman" continues the resolution. A study of the condition existing today in any of the warring coun tries of Europe will reveal women in . all of them suffering untold priva-! tions; left to care for families doing I drudgery of all kinds or starve to j death ; forced to perform such labor ' in order to feed and rear their sons J to be used in the ranks as targets for the cannon. What can be the J motive of a mother to care for a ' family in this age when these things A floor SELL CREAM TO Ochoco Creamery AND MAKE MONEY Ochoco Butter Clean and wholesome.

Such a condition is so foreign to the plans of nature that it seems that it is entirely within the power of the women of the earth to absolutely prevent war. Assuredly they will attempt it in some manner in the future. ONCE AGAIN The cycle is again complete and another school year is a matter of history. For some it means that the school days are over, and the real business of life is commencing To others it is but a few months until the duties of another school year will begin. To all however, there is a summer ahead, during which much can and should be accomplished. It is a fact that the life of any individual can be foretold to some extent at least during the eary years. You cannot afford to lose any time. Life is short and every day, every hour, is worth untold sums to you. Don't be a drone. The greatest rewards of life come to the great workers. The country is crying for able young men and young women to do things. You are needed; don't waste time, get busy and keep busy. GOOD DAYS AHEAD Central Oregon has every reason to feel jubilant over the outlook for the coming year. The continu ing rains promise an abundant growth of all kinds of crops. Meat stulT for which the country has been famous for years will be prepared at a minimum cost on the ranges and the good condition of all the ranges will insure fat cattle and sheep coming into the feed lots this winter and well filled stock yards to greet them.

ELKINS YOUR THE look better than for years, and as the acreage is greater than ever before, it is not amiss to estimate that the harvest will show a heavy percentage of increase over all former years. The horse-market is good and will be much better during the next six months, and wool is higher than it has been for years. The development of the timber resources which has already started at Bend will provide a market for many of these crops for years to come. Taken nil together, it can be truthfully said that this part of the state has better prospects for pros perous times thaa ever In-fore. Sunday's Oregonian carried the endorsements of a large number of newspapers, among them the largest in the United States, all approving the action taken by the President in his issue with Germany, and promis ing without regard to political faith, the solid support of the press in any issues that may arise. Such solid endorsement and expression of faith has seldom been recorded. President Wilson decided upon the attitude of the government in the Lusitania matter, and framed the note to Germany practically without assistance from any cabinet officer. Truly he is a man of great ' ability. We are able to report from an authoritative source, that up to the time of going to press, the county seat has not been moved from Prineville to Bend, regardless of persistent rumors. Prineville was present at the track meet at Redmond Saturday, and the results were quite satisfac tory, to Prineville at least. Prof. A. W.
