before a bl contrrcal ion nt the

evening :
Dr. Katon, Sisters and Urol hers:
It Ih customary in address upmi
citizenship for the speaker 1o pre
dict a time when, upon some Nation
al anniversary, preferably upon the
fourth of July, a tfreat. festival shall
he Kiven in every town anil eily iti
America. There as KiiestH of honor,
Hotbed In while and with garlands
on their heads, will come (lie youiif-'
men and youiiK women who have
reached their uiajoriten in the
twolvo-nionth past and, alter hearing
an address by the ablest speaker
available, they shall stand with rijrhl
hand uplifted and lake the oath of
loyalty to country and to rlpht.
This is a pleasant dream and,
doublless, would be a profitable in
novation, if it were a consummation
of Kood work already done; but the
making of citizen s is primarily a
matter of education and a recoj.Mil
was taken from 1h county jail audition of the fact that the child Is Dm
ushered before .JmlKO Hamilton rot
arraignment, lie entered a plea of
guilty and said he whh ready to re
ceive, sentence. When asked It he
had anything to say why sentience
should not ho pronounced, the de
fendant merely Hhook his head In
tho negative.
In responso to the reuest of
Judge Hamilton for Information re
garding Ihe crime charged against
tiray, tho district attorney said the
prlHomrr whh arrested recently at
lOvnrett, Wash., where he went af
ter cashing a worthless check In the
Hum of $111.70 at the store con
ducted by J. II. Campbell & Son, and
situated at the corner of Sheridan
and Lane streets. Tho district at
torney said he had learned that
(Iray whh employed at the quarries
of the Oregon-Portland Cement Co..
u few miles south or Kosrhurg, for
several days and upon severlnn hb
connection with that concern re
ceived a check in the sum of $19.
70. This check was drawn on the
Douglas National Hunk, of Kose
hnrg, and was sinned by Thomas
Klfgerald, roreiuan of the (uarries.
iray presented IhiH check at the
hank and received the amount ol
its face. Tho district attorney said
(Iray then sent $10 to his mother,
and spent a portion of the remaining
funds for Honor. He became Intoxi
cated, according to the information
gained by the district attorney, and
when he awoke the following imini
In ir h was penniless. It is claimed
(hat he then obtained a counter
check, filled the same out in the
sum of $11. 7n, mid affixed thereto
the signature of Mr. l-'llKcrald.
TlilH check was presented for pay
ment at the store conducted by Mr.
Campbell a Son.
After receiving the money In ex
change for the check. Gray hoarded
a train and went to Kveretl. Wat;h.,
where he was later arrested by the
officers of that city. lie was re

most sacred thinK in the state tin
most Hacred tiling to the stale. Some
one has paraphrased the Scriptures
into saying that the Lord made man
and said, "It is Kood ; " lie made
woman and said, "It is better;" He
then made little children ami said,
"Of such in the kingdom of heaven."
One phrase of education may be
likened to a snowball I bat boys
rolled until they could make it no
larger, then tor! It to pieces to see
what was In it. It contained differ
ent kinds of noil, some pebbles, and
various odd bits of grass and trash;
it was pari of all that it had touched.
It is even so with our lives, and a
city is vitally concerned with every
experience, environment and associa
tion of lis children.
Other speakers have covered this
question of environment. The mayor
has made the city law-abiding, In.

had put one other citl.en on this
course and told him lo talk on the
need ol' a public library. 1 could
then have gone direct ly into Hie
subject of education without further
preface.
I once lived In a city that had no
librar and needed none that is,
most of the men said we needed
none. Itul the Woman's Club thought
we needed it, and they were of I hat
peculiar k I nil of unreasonable wo
men who could not be told anything.
No excuse sal isf led t hem. and no
reasoning would stop (hem. They
petitioned Mr. Carnegie for ten Ihou
san dollars; his auent looked into
the situation and reported Hint a
town of t his size needed a I went y
thousand dollar librar.. If the citi
zens would provide a lot, and the city
fa! hers would agree to pay two thou
sand a year for maintenance (ten
per eoiit of his donation), he would
gladly give t went v thousand dollars
and ask no furl her quest jon
Most of the men were horrified,
reali.eo but the women went to work and ;
I wo o j made I Itese same men give them
and ii (eighteen hundred dollars with which
cin uni-jlo buy a lot. Then they went lo the
Hied iii; council and asked lor the levy of a
chain e ! hall mill tax, which raised twenty
: fixe hundred dollars per annum, The
i council was shocked, bill olcd the
; tax; and they had one id' the most
1 elegant libraries in I he West .
j It doubled the elltcieiH'V of several
dep. i rt meiii s of Hie public schools;
it lauL-ht children ilie use of books.
Soon an annual circulation of S ; :'. I
volumes was credited to the children
i below high school age, which was -I '

ing. Kveiy boy and girl of high
school age should have money in the
bank marie by personal efforts au,d
.-aved by selr-dcnial.
A high school principal gives it as
his opinion that. Hie problem of
keeping boys in school has its origin
in the fact that recent developments
have robbed American boys of most
of their homo jobs. The town cow
has gone, the horse has been traded
for an automobile, the town garden
is going, and father would rather
litre an expert lo keep hip. lawn than
do the work necessary to get. that
much labor out of the boy. This is
unfair to the boy: he becomes a well
dressed loafer; when the school de
mands serious work of him, he quits
t. The girl has not lost so many of
her jobs, bul mother frequently pre
fers to do the work rather than
bother with daughter in the kitchen.
We of the West, in our new coun
try, have not met this problem in as
serious form as have older sections;
but the problem is here and will be
come more acute as we accumulate
wealth and specialize our industries.
No one is to be so pitied as the son
of an efficient father; Mother Neces
sity gets in her work on him too late
to be of highest value.
Nurse Play as an educator is un
der valued. She leaches the young
of all animals to dramatize hundreds
of limes in early lile the parts that
are to be played when the strenuous
days shall come. The kitten, the
colt, and the child must get thru
play the very training that they will
most need at maturity. John Locke
said, "We pay the schoolmaster, but
the other boys educate him;" Hie
Duke of Wellington is quoted as say
ing that the battle of Waterloo was
won upon the football fields of Kng
land; Theodore Roosevelt says that
a school without a playground is not
a school, but a prison. Have we a
real playground in Roscburg?
Some yearn ago I spent several
weeks in Spokane and was a frequent,
visitor at the various city parks. I
asked the superintendent of parks if
the children annoyed the animals,
lie said. "Not now, we have had su
pervised playgrounds for five years
and our children have become civil
ized; they appreciate what the pub
lic does for them." Wore these play
grounds good investments? Preven
tive medicine is now the order of Ihe
day; but, strange to say. some tax
payers would rather build jails than
playgrounds.
As to Ihe pari played by Father
Authority, opinions differ. Some de
pend almost entirely upon heredity.
A school superintendent once con
'Ided to me his secret of getting out
of an embarrassing situation. It
mat tered not how bad t he child or
how disrepuiable the parents, he
consoled t he anxious father or
mother with the assurance that
"Itlood wilt tell, that boy will come
out all right, for he has good blood
in him and blood will tell." How
st rangely ve flatter ourselves t hat.
we are exceptions. "All men think
all men mortal but themselves."
other children may need authority
over lliem, but in the case of ours,
"blood v. ill tell."
other paretils justly conclude that
"II my child is not to profit by my
experience, it Is not worth while that
I lived first," so they insist upon
remilaling every detail of the child's
lile.
Hot ween Ihese extremes is a happy
medium. A friend of mine is an ex
celleni (rattier of bird dogs, and he
g os as his judgment that you
should not punish a dog for running
rabbits during the first season of his
I raining It ou do this you lake all
the go' 'out of him. Wait until he
gets his pace ami establishes his
lonlideiice, then proceed lo trim out
undesirable tendencies. Punish and
correct him the second season. 1
was e.specialh interested in this, be
cause t be best an I her it ies on Hi ild -study
have coiue to Ihe same conclu
sion. The child that is over directed,
over disciplined, or dominated by
older people during the first six or
eight years ol bis life is in danger
of becoming a tlabby, irresolute per
sonality, Pur ing these years, the
child is preeminent ly an im it.U i e
t rea 1 lire and bis greatest need is a
good example and a reasonable free
dom to li e his ow n life. If home
conditions are ideal and mother has
tune ami ability to dexote lo him, it
will be beiier for him to stay out of
school until eiuht except in the case
of .in onl child, who should be
;:nen an oppoituiiit lo associate
wilh other ol his age Some few
wvoTu- tendencies eia be nipped in
the bud. but the child is only a bib
and cannot stand ihe rigors of hard
dis, mime.

An excellent way to teach children
respect for law and authority is to
see that law and authority U always

Brother Pastor, have I evaded
your subject, education? Have Is
taken the advice of the good lady in '.
tho venerable rhyme? ".Mother, may
I go out to swim?" "Yes, my darling
daughter. Go hang your clothes on
hickory limb, but don't go near
the water."
rnfortunately, we have come, to
look upon education as purely a mat
ter for the schools. The exigencies
of modern life and the division of
labor make it as impossible for a
man to be the teacher of his children
is it is for him to be his own physi
cian or lawyer or shoemaker or
