A FATHER'S CONGRESS
THERE is need in the United States of a National Con
gress of Fathers, the objects of which might be sim
ilar to those of the Mothers' Congress, a body
which has accomplished many things for the chil
dren of the nation. Are the fathers any less interested in
the welfare of their sons and daughters? Have they no
time to devote to consideration and espousal of the chil
dren's betterment and conservation? The national prob
lem of the child has been left too long to the mothers ex
clusively, who could accomplish so much more if the fath
ers will organize and bear their just share of the burden.
Complaints are growing that husbands and fathers
have been growing too busy with their work to the exclu
sion of their time and sympaty from the home. Perhaps,
then, it is not strange that these same men are finding no
time to drop affairs of business, forget competition, and
cease money-making, to consider the prior duty they owe
home and children.
The hurried gift of a coin or bill to child welfare work
ers is not enough. The sharing of attention with one's own
son, as in the father and son movement, is insufficient.
Your actual services to help the home and to demand laws
less for pigs and more for children, are required, Mr.
Father. Your sympathetic co-operation for the welfare
of your own and your neighbor's children is essential.
You we have been giving all our attention and money
to building machines (often for child labor to operate) or
to raising better calves or turnips. We have forgotten
the nation's greatest asset its children; even our own
children ! '
Personally, the result has been a drawing apart of
fathers and sons. Men wonder why their lads are not a
"chip off the old block." Have you, then, an influence
over your son? If not, perhaps you allow him to have no
influence over you.
Why does congress give great sums for animal and
plant improvement and begrudge a few paltry dollars for
child welfare? Why is the wealth of the nation given for
free seeds while a pittance is denied for printing docu
ments to save the children? It is because the men the
fathers have forgotten the children !
A FATHERS' CONGRESS
It may well be doubted if wealth in such vast amount
as to compel its owner to maintain armed guards by day
and to sleep in an armored bedroom is a thing greatly to
be desired. The situation the Rockefellers find them
selves in is certainly not one conducive to complete happi
ness or even average comfort. The scriptures tell how
difficult it is for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heav
en, but wealth has grpwn to such an extent that in the case
of the Rockefellers, at least, they find it difficult to even
get into their church. The latest dispatches tell of the
senior Rockefeller being locked up in his house with a big
negro loaded with arms guarding the gate to the grounds.
Another dispatch the same day says' young Rockefeller
was confined to his room and sick from reading what the
press of the United States had to say about him. If that
is the result of unlimited wealth, he was wise indeed who
said ; "Give me neither poverty nor riches."
The inspiring news comes over the wires that congress
will remain in session indefinitely. There is a large
amount of unfinished business and the senate puts in its
time making long-winded speeches and copy for the Con
gressional Record. The bill to repeal the tolls exemption
on the Panama canal has been talked and talked until the
public patience is worn out. Every high-brow in the sen
ate seems to think that his talk amounts to something, or
else is talking just to keep in the limelight. The senate
is as well informed now as it will be a month or six
months from now, and the vote would probably not be
changed a particle if delayed for a year. About the only
thing that is being accomplished is the emphasizing the
fact that two legislative bodies are a relic of the past and
entirely unnecessary. The senate will succeed in talking
itself out of existence is it keeps up its gait.
SALEM is certainly long suffering and full of pa
tience. There is not another community in the state
that would submit to having such a depot located in
it as the Southern Pacific has maintained here ever
since it snaffled on to the railroad built by the late Ben
Holiday. It would make a good sheep shearing shed for
an Eastern Oregon ranch it' it was big enough. Still it
fills the bill in a way and serves as a sort of land mark by
which passengers can locate the place where the cars stop.
First it needs a coat of paint. Then it needs some nice new
brick or stone placed under the paint. Then inside this
structure it needs a splendid finish of native Oregon wood
Coos Bay Myrtle, say, or birds-eye maple, or something
of that kind.
It need not be a marble palace just a depot that Salem
folks will not be ashamed of. The fact that the Southern
Pacific is not ashamed of it is accounted for by the fact
that, being a corporation, it cannot feel shame, and its. of
ficials, traveling around in magnificent private cars, re
fuse to be ashamed for it. A comparison of one of these
private cars with the Salem brevet-depot would make a
moving picture and one that should make the S. P. offi
cials get a move on and also a move on the old sheep coral
they compel Salem patrons of the road to use while wait
ing to patronize it, and give it their good money. It is an
insult to decency to put strangers off the cars in the vicin
ity of the old cow barn and tell them they are in Salem.
An Irishman once expressed his opinion as to a small
piece of pie he was invited to sample by saying, "It is good
enough what there is of it, and there is enough of it
such as it is." It is that way with Salem's alleged depot.

IF KIDNEYS ACT
BAD TAKE SALTS
Says Backache I a Sign Ton Hare
Been Eeatlng Too Much Meat
Which Forms Uric Add.
When you - rake up with backache
and dull misery in the kidney region
it generally means you have been eat
ing too much meat, nays a well'known
authority. Meat forms uric acid lrhu-b
overworks the kidneys in their effort
to filter it from the- blood and they
become sort of paralyzed and loggy.
When your kidneys get sluggisa and
elog you must relieve them, like- you
relieve your bowels; removing all the
body's urinous waste, else you have
backache, sick headache, dizzy ajiells;
your stomach sonrs, tongue is coated,
and when the weather is bad you have
rheumatic twinges. The mine is
cloudy, full of sediment, channels oft
eii get sore, water scalds and you are
obliged to seek reiief two or three
times during the night.
Kither consult a good, reliable physi
cian at once or get from yotrr phar
macist about four ounces of Jad Halts;
take a tablespoonful in a glass of water
before breakfast for a few days nnd
your kidneys will then act fine. This
famous salts is made from the acid of
grapes and lemon juice, combined with
lithia, and has been used for genera
tions to clean and stimulate sluggish
kidneys, aUo to neutralize acids in tho
urine ro it no longer irritates, thus end
ing bladder weak nets. '
Jad Salts is a life saver for regular
meat eaters. It is inexpensive, cannot
injure and makes a delightful, effer
vescent lithia-water drink.

Public Schools Not Founded to Furnish

ALOXO process of reformers (so called) have sought to bring to
pass oil sorts of mnchine made "millenniums." If they deal
with tho social evil they proceed on the notion that purity is
only possible to thoso who nro above want or have good wages. , They
are never deeply concerned to work on the souls of men and women,
but they are absorbed in trying to improve surroundings. THEY
HAVE MOKE FAITH IN THE TOWER OF ENVIRONMENT
THAN IN THE STRENGTH OP CONSCIENCE. . They have done
much to lead multitudes of men and women to wait for something to
bo done for them rather than by them before undertaking to live virtu
ously. NOW OUR REFORMERS, WHO HAVE BEEN GIVING SUCH ATTEN
TION TO ENVIRONMENT FOR MANY YEAR3 AND WHO HAVE FAILED,
TURN TO A VAIN ATTEMPT TO REGULATE HEREDITY. HENCE THIS
HUGE 8CHEME OF EUGENICS, WHICH IS, INDEED, A TRAGIC BLUN
DERING WITH 8ACRED THINGS. ALREADY IT HAS YIELDED A COR
RUPTING BULK OF SALACIOUS TALK ABOUT SEX HYGIENE AND SEX
INSTRUCTION IN THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS. THE WHOLE DISGUSTING
MOVEMENT RESTS ON THE ASSUMPTION OF MAN'8 8AMENESS WITH
THE BRUTES. IT LEAVES ENTIRELY OUT OF THE ACCOUNT MAN'S
FREEDOM OF WILL, WHICH DIVINE CHARACTERISTIC LIFTS HIM IN
FINITELY ABOVE ANY AND ALL BRUTES.
It is time to tell these pretentious mechanicians to stand aside. Let
them KEEP THEIR nANDS OFF OUR SCHOOLS AND
SCHOOL CHILDREN AT LEAST. Our public schools were not
founded to furnish clinical opportunities for sex mad fanatics.
Oregon Agricultural College, Cor
vallis, Ore., May 4. Ewes that have
lost, their own Iambs may still often
bo utilized for the raising of twin
lambs or lnmha thai have lost their
own mothers. "Nearly every year one
lamb or more dies, even out of the
small flocks that run on the general
farm," says E. M. Nelson, siieop spe
cialist at O. A. C. "In such eases the
ewes may bo made stop-mothers. But
of course it will bo necessary to get
the eye to own the strange lamb. This
may be accomplished in either of the
following ways:
1. The skin may t
dead lnmb and plac(
to be adopted. we
lambs by the scent,
the lamb skin will I
liove that the lamb
akin should be rcn- i,
hours, or sooner if :
2. The ewe mny be caught auu
"every two or three hours for the new
lamb to suck. In a few days, gener
ally five or six, the ewe will own the
lamb. Sprinkling a little of the ewe's
milk over the lamb will be a great
help in this method."
