But the majority of folks seem to need some den nlte thing to save for. When the banks began to promote Christ mas Clubs, Vacation Clubs, Etc., they found that a multitude of pconle who would not save money simply from the general pur pose of thrift, would do so if you offered them some definite and attractive object to work for. The same principle applies to owning a home. It constitutes a wonderful incentive. The idea of a pretty and convenient dwelling that shall make you inde jjendont, and which you can develop and improve to suit yourself, has fascinated the thought of multitudes of people. Innumerable folks, who never previously could save a dollar, have become able to do so when you planted in their head3 this possibility of owning a home. It has been the motive that gave them their start in life and has opened new possibilities of prosperity. Obligations of this kind have a steadying effect on people. It is something like marriage. Where previously a man had squandered all his earn ings on foolish pleasures, when he marries a wife, he has an in centive to use his money carefully and his ideals and ambitions are uplifted. The effort to own a home similarly concentrates a man's purpose on industry and thrift. The man who buys a home oil a mortgage finds that debt is not so much a burden as an in ducement. Men who have bought out business enterprises and given notes for them, often say that the existence of that obliga tion had a wonderful effect to stimulate their energy and initia tive. It is just the same in the effort to own a home. It brings out the best there is in a man. " The close of school and college has brought many young peo ple for the first time up against the problem of making good in a business or mechanical position. Their first efforts are mighty novel and interesting and also somewhat anxious. A good rule through this period of uncertainty and probation, is to remember carefully all instructions handed out to them. This is not so easy H$ it sounds. They will be told, many new things during their first month. It may be difficult to keep all those things in mind. A good plan, if a new employe is receiving new instructions, would be to note down each day when you get home, just what ew information and suggestions were given you during the day. I is irritating to an employer or foreman to have to keep telling people things over and over again., But a new worker who takes special pains to note down and remember all instructions, makes afavorable appearance, and the chances of such for promotion are very good. o Many people who at this time are beginning work for the first time realize that there are wide gaps in their education. When the stenographer has letters handed back with misspelled words, when the store clerk makes errors in his arithmetic that scei careless or ignorant, they lament some idle days spent in school. But young people who are determined to rise never worry much about such defects. A few hours a week of reading and study at home, will put them in advance of many who have had better opportunities, but who have frittered them away. The early years of people's business careers should be a time when they make a special effort to remove these defects of education. If they do not do so then, they probably never will. Divorces to the number of 6,900 before a single judge in Chicago may not be alarming to very many people, but the strain attendant on the strenuous work caused the judge to collapse. However,' the fact is calculated to produce a nervous slunk to every right thinking nature. Nearly seven thousand homes broken up, and thousands of children brought under the blighting in fluence of domestic tragedy, are some of the direct results of these lamentable occurrences for a single year. Solemn warning was issued yesterday by Commander Lane Goodell at the state meeting of the American Legion now in ses sion at The Dalles against allowing religious differences to enter into the affairs of the Legion. This is a sensible conclusion and one that should be heeded by every buddy of this great organiza tion. "Liquor prices in Canada to decline,'' is a headline to a cur rent news item. This will be intensely interesting to a lot of )M'ople on this side of the line who look to the king's domain for satisfying supplies of thirst reducing beverages. r . Heading in Con-all is Gazette-Times of Tuesday reads: "Cor vailis Couple is Looking for Son." Nothing unusual about this oxcept the fad that they are very often compelled to accept a daughter.

"Why," asked the sweet girl, "do all the novels say that n man pines for a woman 7" "Because," said the cynic, "pine is about the softest wood there is." AND WALKS SOFT. It was visiting day at the jail and the uplifters were on deck. "My good man," said one kindly woman, "I hope that since you have come here you have had time for medi tation and have decided to correct your faults."

It was during the impanelino of a jury. The following colloquy occerud: "You are a property holder?" "Yes, your honor." "Married or single?" "I have been married for five years, your honor."

The CorvalllM meeting ia universally described by the members as the most notable in the history of the state.

'. " NEWS AND THE MAN. A New York man named McCulloutth who was wrongfully accused of tak ins part in a crime ba asked the New York Times to i)elp him recover bis good name through its columns. This the Times is doing It ulailly, devoting prominent space to his story. It is a sort of service which every reputable paper is more than ready lo Kive, but for which the papers too often receive llttlo credit. McCullough Is a taxlcab driver.

Finding his neiKhbors persistently prone to "gos sip and scorn," the victim of publici ty turned to publicity for help, so that his growing son "m:iy have no reflec tions cast upon him when he grows up." Thanks to the Times, he now has visible proof to silence slander. Of course his troubles arose be cause when he ceased to figure as a wilful participant in crime he ceased to be news.

It will side-step if worse it stinks and both men, men who believe they are big enough to be gov ernor of Oregon, are out with their paddles stirring to beat the band. They have covered the entire republican party with a stench that Is driving old line republicans away from the party like rats leaving a burning Fhlp. Either way the argument Is decided the result will be the same for Walter M. Pierce will be the next governor of Oregon as sure as the Lord made lit tle apples. The circuit court of Marion county has made the decision we predicted the supreme court will make. Of course it is barely possible that the supreme court will mark time until there will be no opportunity for it to A BIG SAVING ON SOAP SPEcuJ 25 Bars Silk Soap for 20 Bars A.B.

POLITICAL DOPE. Former State . Senator I. N. Day, popularly supposed to be the head of the paving combine in Oregon, and Governor Olcott's political manager In Multnomah county, refuses to continue the tax commission meetings. The reason assigned is that Walter M. Pierce, candidate for governor, is a member of the commission, and there fore should not be allowed to appear in public in any official capacity for fear It might influence votes his way. Mr. Day may be sincere in his posi tion, but we notice that he filed no If it Is true that a voter may change his politics on election day in a pri mary election, there can be no party government nor party choice. The democrats could control the republi can nominations and the republicans could return the compliment on .the democrats and the two poorest men could and, if the scheme was worked, would, be nominated for office.
