In the old days, when a boy was stupid in school, they put
a fool's cap on him and seated him upon a conspicuous high stool
uf tha front nf the room. There he was gazed at by a roomlul 01
giggling pupils. The theory was that he would be so shamed by
ha -vmumre that he would settle down to work ana get ms tea
sons. Some sensitive children would be made so nervous by such
thAt. ihpv would stumble and fall as the result ol
being jeered at. But others of a good natured type would rather ( .jx.p. car. .. th. weather-.
enjoy being conspicuous, as a cnance to auia
pranks. Apparently the foolscap method of promoting scholastic
ambition did not work well, as it has long since been given up.
The modern world, however, uses the same method to a certain
extent, by the tendency of some to look with contempt on people
vL-hnaa mpntjtlifv works nlowlv on theoretical lines. Children who
can't learn from' books may be referred to by some as "fools."
when in fcality they have useful capacities along certain lines.Not
all people can take advantage of the higher education, or even of
high school training. The world needs a large number of faith-,
ful workers who toil along routine lines. People of that type are
often happier working faithfully along some useful craft, than
those of a brighter nature who have acquired a keener intelli
gence, but for some reason can't attain much success. Many such
folks become sour and embittered. People should not be dis
couraged from acquiring inetlligence. But when children can
not learn from books, the main thing is to teach them to work
faithfully with their hands.
Often parents place the blame on teachers for their children's
shortcomings, when in reality school instructors are unable, no
matter how efficient, to bring out pupils in certain school sub
jects. Then, again, because a child is particularly slow in one or
two subjects is no good reason for parents to become alarmed.
Your child will naturally take to those subjects best fitted for his
particular absorption and every parent should study their child
ren's progress in school that sufficient interest be created in the
child to follow out those things that he seems best fitted to grasp,
and which will most likely be a paramount issue in later life. It
should not be expected that all pupils attending school be a peer that i didn't have the nerve to speak

AN HONEST JURYMAN
"Look here," said a young Juryman
after the Jury had retired, "if I un
derstand aright, the. plaintiff doe.nt
aak damages for blighted affections
or anything of that sort, but only
wants his presents back.
'That is so," agreed the foreman.
'"Well, then, I vote we dor.;$ give
him a cent," said the young juryman
hastily. "If all the fun he had wrth
that girl didn't cover the amount the
presents cost him, it was his own
fault. Gentlemen, I courted that girl
once myself 1"

We saw a damsel on the main stem
Inst eve and she had Ink on the side
of her face and when vp told her
about it all she said was: "Guess my
sweetie's fountain pen is ' leaking

A Sheridan st sheik caught up
with a sweet patootie up on Cass St.
last night and In trying the break the
ice said: "That fellow bet me a dollar
in every subject taught. Neither should the impression be gained
that a boy or girl deficient in certain subjects is a loss to so
ciety. Some of our brightest men and women of today did not
have the privilege of the best educational facilities, still genius
was developed to that degree that rounded out a most successful
and elevating career.
Most every boy and girl is fitted for some useful occupation
and this responsibility should not be weighed lightly by parents.
The maiden answered: "Not at all.
Bun along now and get your dollar."
Our form of government has changed under our eyes into a
despotic bureaucracy, says an exchange. We are governed not by
statutes, but by rulings 'of this department and that commissioner
whose orders have the force of laws. Our rights are determined
for us not by courts and juries, who hear our cases in public, but
by inspectors and investigators and bureaus, who collect evidence
where they find it and announce decisions in the true Turkish
fashion. That, of course, is not democracy. It is not even ef
ficient, but if it were, free government should not be sacrificed to
efficiency. Who will rid us of this pest of bureaucracy and re
store the American ideal of popular government? Only a con
gress that will display some courage and statesmanship, and a lit
tle devotion to the constitution of the United States. Certainly
not a congress in which democrats are concerned mainly about
besmirching republicans, and republicans about blackening demo
crats, and few concerned about truth or justice or the heavily
burneded taxpayer. But to get the right kind of men in congress
the people must elect them.
o
A resolution has been offered to congress providing that the
senate ftnd house chambers tie both equipped with radio broad
casting apparatus. Many of the faults in the government are due
to the fact that the people have not been watching political de-;
velopments closely. If the debates of congress were being heard j
daily by the radio audience of millions, more people would wakej
up to the importance of these questions. Hearing these big sub-'
jects discussed by able men would show the home folks how much
they have at stake in these problems. It would stimulate discus-1
f ion at the firesides and the hang-outs. More people would be in- j
cited to road the newspapers and keep in touch with political de-j
velopments. 1

A fool with an automobile, and a jug of moonshine, went
"hay-wire" over on the Coos Bay highway Saturday nijrht with
the result that one woman is dead and several other persons in ;
the hospital with severe injuries. No telling' what a man or
woman can and will do with a generous supply of gas and a,
sprinkle of "moon." But it is a foregone conclusion that they can :
raise a helluva lot of trouble.
