The man who wins is an aver age man, Not built on any particular plan. Xot blessed with any particular luc)t; Just steady and earnest and full of pluck. i When asked a question he does not "guess" He knows, and answers "No" or "Yes;" When set to a task that the rest can't do, He buckles down till he's put it through. Three things he knows: That .tne man who tries Finds favor in his employer's eyes; That it pays to know more than I one thing well; That it doesn't pay all he knows to tell. J i ! I ! For the man who wins Is the man who worWo. Who neither iabor nor trouble shirks. Who uses his hands, his head, his eyes; The man who -wins' Is the man who tries. Charles' R. Barrett. EVERYBODY AT IT. The time for the big annual "clean up" Is at hand. By action of the may or and city council Friday and Sat urday, April 1 and 2 have been of ficially named as cleaning up days. The work of supervising the work In different sections of the city has been assigned to the councilmen and to ladies representing Uie .women's clubs. Arrangements have been made by the municipality for carry ing off the refuse that will be gathered and piled in the streets during the big crusade. All these preliminary steps having been taken it Is now up to house holders and business men to enter with spirit Into the work of cleaning tip. The success of the coming cru sade will depend upon the manner In which they respond to the call. Past experience indicates that most home owners and shop keepers' will he eager to comply with the request that they clean up their premises and the streets adjoining their property. Those who do not respond should be haled be fore the police court and made to ex plain the reason for their negligence. It In not a fad, this cleaning up crusade. It Is an earnest move for keeping the city In proper sanitary condition. It Is a move to protect the health of the people of this city ao well as to keep the city In a pre sentable condition. It is a move in which every right minded citizen will Join with cheerfulness and zeal. SOMETHING DOIXG NOW. It matters no longer that the In surgents have given Uncle Joe a solar plexls blow; that the Plnchot-Balllng-r controversy threatens to disrupt the Taft administration; that neither Cook nor Peary discovered the north pole or even that the Rough Rider has cleaned out the Jungle and Is comir.g home. For the coast league games have started and the baseball JS'-aon Is on In earnest. Henceforth the big interest will not be In politics or In anything of that sort, but In the comparative standing of the teams, In the batting averages of the various popular Idols and in the strike outs credited to the different twlrlers. ''Who won today?" GOOD STHKETS; GOOD TOWN. There are Indication that the city U thinking of doing something- tow ards the betterment of the streets. At the meeting last night a road scraper was authorized. The city al ready owns a roller and with the scraper and roller together. should be able to' do some very effective work towards getting some of the streets into better shape ,for travel. There are several streets now badly In need o.' the grader and the roller. But of course streets cannot be permanent 1 Improved by the use of rollers and scrapers. They need macadamizing. This is an improvement that U more expensive than scraping and rolling ut It is far more lasting, in the view of the East Oregonian all the principal residence streets of the city should be macadamized. They should also he provided with concrete curbs and cutttors and nothing but concrete iulk should be ullu'.viu upon streets so Improved. Some day our streets will he Improved In some such a man ner and' when that time comes Pen dleton will be a far better appearing town than It Is at present. tiik commission rii.w. Whether or not the commission advisable Is , form of government is j one of the liveliest subjects of the "T.dcy. Something like 150 cities of the L nlted states i now trying the commission plan. In an article In Everybody's magazine for April Charles Edward Russell gives the fol lowing pointed reasons for favoring the commission plan: 1. It aboliHhes party politics from k cal affairs. 2. It eliminates the boss, the graft er, and the political machine. 3. It views a municipality as a .great business enterprise and provides accordingly for Its effective manage ment. 4. It recognizes definitely the fail ure of representative government and substitutes therefor a system of dem ocracy; it recognizes the fact that there Is no wisdom but collective wisdom. 5. It establishes direct responsi bility for every public act. 6. It seems to be swift, efficient, economical and adapted to a rational community In the twentieth century. 7. It abolishes a raft of useless of- fices, sinecures. Jobs, and political re- method and work. I'l.F.XTY OF FKUIT. j I Reports received from the Milton- j Freewater country are optimistic. j From appearances at this time the east end will harvest the largest fruit jfiop in years. Just now there are -so ninny buds upon the trees that unless some of them, are Injured by frost it will be necessary for the or- chiirdlsts to do some trimming In or v der to keep their trees from being broken down. This k good news. A bumper fruit crop will mean prosperity for the people of the east end. Here's hoping that up around Freewater and Milton there will be such a heavy crop tfliB year that both the O. R. & X. and the Xorthern Pacific com bined won't be able to handle the fiuit shipments. At Eugene the rector of St. Mary's Episcopal church has resigned and he gives "the increased cost of liv ing" as a reason for his action. It was evidently a good move on his part for his parishoners are going to ad vance his salary. Through a headline error this paper slated yesterday that he city's treas ury had been enriched by the fines Imposed upon "near" beer men and cigar store owners. The county, not the city gets thlB money. The city gets only the blame. The city Is going to set. out 1000 locust trees In Olney cemetery.

National Monthly. DANCING XOT A SIX. There are people who thiitk music, was Invented by the devil. There are others who consider, a game of cards played for recreation a sin in the sight of Ood. There are others who call dancing one of the cardinal sins. . All these people are morbidly In sane. , . Listen to this tirade from a mis taken fanatic: "If we are trying to Inspire our Clrls with the thought of having their "price far above rubles' or our boys with the sacredness of their relation. 4 dare we as fathers and mothers, us public school teachers, as leaders in our religious organizations, place them in the way of temptations of the mod ern dance? "Under the guise of innocency It creeps Into our homes, which should be the bulwark of purity, and Insid iously steals the bloom of modesty from the cheeks of our girls and un dermines the chivalrous principles of our boys, so' that Instead of treating women as on. too sacred to be rude ly touched treats her as a plaything, as one to minister to his d-sires or gratify his lust. "In the majority of our high schools the dance has entered not content that older ones should be Its victims; that those of uneducated classes should be its devotees, but it must get the cream of our young men and women and endeavor to drag them down into its clutches of Impurity. "Do teachers., superintendents, school boards, fathers and mothers realize what it is doing? Surely not, or they would arise en masse and stump it out of existence Instead of resting and saying 'young folks must have their fun, and that Is Innocent.' "What Is it about the dance that will cause the sweet young girl to have that unusual flush on her cheek, to throw aside her maidenly reserve and too many times that cloak of modesty and then exclaim. 'I would rather dance than eat?" Is It simply because of the exercise? Why, then, does she not dance with the girls every available moment if the mere exercise Is so delicious? "Ah. we know that It is the sex re lation that brings a quickening of the pulse. As her hand Is placed in his, hisarm about her waist, his breath upon her cheek under the Influence of music, laughter, oftened lights, can she be a girl and not feel her pul bound within her?" The woman who wrote these words needs ft nerve specialist. She needs association with good, wholesome minded gliis and boys and with good men and women who love tne aanee and who have been educated In It from childhood. She needs to purify her own mind from Its unclean Imaginings. She writes like a woman who Is sexually starved and whose mind creates a false condition and is consequently filled with morbid concepts on that subject.' She needs to study the world and human nature and cause and effect a little more carefully, and she will discover that instead of being a men ace to purity, the dance, properly en joyed under right conditions, is a nor mal outlet for superfluous vitality and a protection to Its participants In pro ducing healthful fatigue and dream less sleep. It stimulates the circula tion by a perfectly natural and nor mal process that of an agreeable ex ercise. Dancing, however, should never be participated in by young girls in common public halls. Like any oth er pleasure, it should be regulated by rules of good breeding, selected asso ciates and "right environment. The home Is an eminently proper place for a young girl to enjoy dancing or a club where older people can act as chaperones. Xo man or woman can acquire' ab solute grace and ease of deportment without some acquaintance with the rudiments of dancing. Dancing combines all the arts. It Is music, poetry, sculpture and painting all in one. Social dancing Is one of the elements which keeps the world young. It is an Ingredient In the elixir of youth. I would have a daughter Instructed In dancing rather than In arithmetic If the choice had to be made. Ella Wheeler Wilcox In the Examiner. literary House Kccpiujr. She laid down her pencil and went Into the room to rearrange her hair. Her husband glanced at the -MS. up on which she was working and by which she hoped to achieve literary fame. "She swept the room with a quick glance," he read. Then picking up the pencil he added: "Ah! if she would only sweep our rooms with an ordinary broom once In a while."

New York Sun: Those who have gazed on the beautiful Danube are agreed that it may be brown at times, that it Is generally a dirty muddy yel low, and never blue. Transatlantic travelers have looked for Byron's "thou dark and deep blue ocean roll," and while sacrificing to the roll have seen green of all shades and only rarely blue.

Lord Haylelgh has been experimenting with tubes 12 feet long. With water ta-ken off Cap ri and off Suez he found a color which might be called blue out of polite ness, but which he calls greenish blue; the water from a lightship off the Cornish coast gave a full green. From distilled water he got a bluish tint of the Mediterranean sea water. The substitution of green for blue may upset traditional Ideas; it disturbs neither the rhythm nor the iuality of poetry.
