Farm laborers would bra about the aomunt they could mow in a day. The man who could not keep up with the others In hoeing a field of corn, was look ed down upon In his Kane Shop workers used to bran about tho day's work they could turn out, and make conspicuous records of the same on the walls olf tholr workshops. Of late there has seemed but little of this spirit. Business mon complain bitterly that It is hard to Ret people to work with any energy. Some folks seem to fear that If they take hold with any pep, they will work themselves out of a job. There Is a world wldo fooling of letting; down after the war, and It seems to take the ambition out of a lot of people. They know that labor la short. They think they are sure of their Jobs even Of they do work In an 'Indolent manner. A good Idea for renewing the spirit of emulation. Is being worked out by the Maltimora and Ohio rallorad. They publish month ly tho car movement on all tholr divisions, with figures showing In- crease or decrease. It Is the policy of tho management to encourage the spirit of emulation and competition "Make It a mile a day more this month," Is tho motto that Is being passed around tho system. Thn If a splendid Idea that everyone ninv apply to his own business. The man who Is going to succeed In life. Is the one who watches his production Ho Is nmbltlotis to do moro and bet ter work. That kind of worker U the kind that attracts attontlou from higher up, and the one who Is picked for promotion when vacancies open up KKIl'f'Kl) FARM I'ltOIWCTHtX Farmers all over the country are saying that they can not : ttenipt to raise as largo crops as formerly. Tho farm help la so scarce and cost so mucn, that many (farmers will not plant more than they nnS tholr fam ilies can cure for. While tho de mand tw food fron. Ruropn will fall off somewhat, yet the country will he lucky under tho present con ditions, tr there is enough for home use. This condition is tho result of the wave of extravagance and Inflation that has drawn workers off tho farms Inlo the cities. Keep up tho war gnrdonB. Vegetables will he scarcer than ever, and a few rows of benns and potatoes will look mighty good next September. The business community should assist tho farmers In getting all the help possible. A nation wide drive should be made to enlist farm workers. The longer one lives with Print ers' Ink. tho more he feels that printing Is a wonderful art. It Is built on the solid foundation of a mechanical craft, with certain pro cesses and Information and stand ards resulting from ages of experi ence. And In design and expression It has all the grace nnd force of tho fine arts. The printer with the true craftsman's spirit, gives his product superior vnlue to the user If a "lob" has a rlenn and neat tv pogranhlrat appearnnce. It makes stationery or announcements look bnslness-IIke slid ell: li-lent. If nsl It Is set up from handsome and ar tistic tyie. It seems to Jand for somethln g having dlstln.Mon and super- value. Still n,ore. If It Is arranged with proper emphasis and display, such as credited by the News-Review lob printing depart ment, the printed message makes n elesrer Impression and speaks with more convincing power. The wideaw ake merchant who in,. tho columns of the News-Review In an advertising wav reaches over seventeen thousand readers each day. No publication In the slated Oregon furnishes such a sen-Ice for tho advertising rates quoted by this paper. Vnu sure get your money's worth when represented in these columns. Increasing production 1 per cent would lower living costs 20 per cent says an authority, hut the oni fort being u,u by most peotrf In this direction Is to inrresM their production of talk. Tho school pupils ro-ope-ate with the teacher by notifying her when the school clock Is slow, but they forget to mention It when the clock Is fast. Adtrlcs doesn't cost anytti'ng to glv hut It's often Blghtjr expansive to accept. The higher price of gasoline does not worry tbe automublle crowd, the grocer and butcher cao wait for their pay until aftor tho driving sea son Is over. While soma people who live to be 100 are still chewing tobacco and drinking rum. they are supposed to get over writing poetry when they get to te 70.

Clark, charged with the murder of Charles I.. Taylor at Mc Kenxle Bridge last July. It becomes more and more apparent that the se lection of a Jury for the case will be a long, tedious process, says the Kugene (iuard. l'l lo the moment if going to press thirteen veniremen had been put through the grilling 'xamtnatinn as to their tialificr.t!;;.; ro sit on the Jury, and one after an Hher they were dismissed In every ase the prospective Juror bad either read all the details of the case or llscussed It with his neighbors, or were present at tho former trial, and o had formed an opinion that would llsbar him from the case. It i thought by some that the entire week may be consumed in the effort to lecuro the tw-.lve men. L.U'XDY IS COXVICTF.II. PORTLAND Ore..

Captain Gns Westerdale, master of the trawler, his crew of thirteen and a aingle passenger barely had time to launch a single lifeboat when the giant trawler plunged beneath the heavy combers. Those who were rescued, but not until after they had battled for more than seven hours in the slyglan blackness of the night, every minute of which titanic combers threatened to capsize their sixteen-foot lifebc- t, were : Single Passenger Among Ilcetcued.

The rescued sailors and the lone passenger were brought to San Francisco late Sunday afternoon af ter they had been picked up by the crew of the San Francisco lightship.

Tim cargoless trawler - pounded heavily under the hammering of the giant ground swells until about 10:20 o'clock Saturday night, that hour Fireman P. H. Coyne re ported to Captain Westordale that water was pouring Into the forward hold. Within ten minutes from the time Coyne reported the Ituna tak ing water, the trawler plunged to the bottom of the sea. Hastily arousing tho sleeping members of the crew and Chase. Captain Westerdale ordered the life boats lowered. One lifeboat was launched with great difficulty. Even while Chase and members of the crew were scrambling aboard the lifeboat, the Ituna suddenly plunged, quivered a few moments, and then sank from sight. The last man to board the life boat. Steward Kelly, leaped just as the Ituna began hor last plunge, and landed heavily ln the lifeboat, spraining his ankle. Then began a terrible fight for life. The lifeboat, loaded to capac ity with human freight, shipped bo much water from the gale-swept combers that the castaways were compelled to ball for their lives.
