' ROSEBURG, OREGON, TUESOAV, MARCH 17, 1925k SMALL ; Many observers of modem conditions feel alarm be- cause the educated classes do not seem to be reproducing- Vmselves through an adequate number of children. It is "ed that cultured families very frequently have only one Id or none at all, while those that have more than two are I ; .immon. The result of this tendency, it is felt, will be to ', throw the control of the country more and more into the I hands of the uneducated classes, the great majority of whom ; have large families of children, . There is some reason for '. this complaint, and it seems unfortunate when people of I highly cultured families can not bring enough children into the world to pass on their training and ideals. The principal ' cause why this is so, is apparently the higher standard of expense which these families have to conform to or think ; they must. This leads many young people to delay mar J riage until a rather late date, thus reducing the chance Of large families. Also if they do have a child or two, they may feel inclined to limith the growth of the family for fear they j can not stand the expense. What is needed is to have a more I reasonable standard of expense for these families, so that ii ; would be possible for the young people to marry at an earlier . date, and so that they would not be so fearful about support ! ing children. The public sentiment of the time should en- courage economy and frown upon unnecessary expense. Ev- ery effort should be made to have pleasures simple and inex 5 pensive. , Every young woman should be taught to do her own house work, ant the young men should be instructed to some extent in the same arts so they could take hold and help i their wives. Young people ought to be urged very strongly j also, to save their money before marriage, so that when they start their little family they will have a considerable reserve 'ahead, . e l r I ', Not all who wear green neckties and other bits of like color on March J7, are sons of old Ireland. There are many ' Whose ancestors never saw the "ould sod," who are glad to t honor the robust old saint who is celebrated on this day. St Patrick's" Day was so far back In history that many details f of his career are not recorded, but it is agreed that he was j' the greatest missionary ever known tojreland, and that his ; wonderful work assured the triumph of Christianity in that previously pagan land. . He must have been one who despised ' the perils of those rough days, and made light of all haz- ards for the faith he held dear.

The purpose is to arouse fraternal feeling, welcome strangers, promote church attendance, etc. One interesting thing about this plan is the way the men .IwiH take hold of it, although they never did church work be fore. This is a suggestion to community organizations of ;;Roseburg that a large number of people are willing to work ;;for public causes, if some one will take the lead and suggest ;;u3cful tasks that need to be done.

T Ti In the shooting profession "Ad" Topperwein who it to appear at the local Gun Club grounds on April 12, is known as the "Wizard of the HI He." He can do more things with a rifle than Walter Johnson can do with a baseball, or the late Frank Ives could do with a billiard ball. The San Antonio (Texas) Ex press say that Topperwein is the best advertisement that town has, because he alwaya keeps the place lu the newspapers through his won der! ul shooting. Topperwein took up rifle shoot ing while he was an artist on that paper and he got lus Ideas for a lot of the things he does today while he waa working up photo graphic lay-outs for the Express. But that is all of the past Topperwein today is ranked as the greatest rifle shot In the world. On no less than fifteen times has he broken all world's records with the rifle in shooting at flying tar gets. On one occasion he broke 85 fiat of 100 21 Inch targets thrown from an automobile going So mfle ah hour. He first tossed the tar gets and then shot at them. An other record Is 4954 breaks out of 5000 1 3-4 lncb targets, and an even more wonderful one Is the record of 9.9U9 out of 10,000 -2 1-4 Inch flying targets. Topperwein was sur prised when he missed the one tar get. Possibly hia most remarkable shooting with a rifle waa at San Antonio, in July, 1907, when he shot eight hours a day for ton days and only missed, nine in 72,500 I 1-4 inch wooden blocks that were tossed 25 feet in tbe air by an assistant. When Topperwein be gan It was his intention to shoot at 6000 targets a day for ten days, and to create the world's record for this line ol shooting. The scor er paid no attention as the thous ands rolled by, and It was In the 7000 block that Topperwein made tbe first miss, so then tbe decision was made to shoot 7500 a day, un lesa the ammunition ran out, which Is what happened. Out of the first 60,000 blocks shot at Topperwein missed only four. Not only did Top perwein shoot at the blocks, but he loaded his Winchester every one of the 72.600 times. In this remarkable test of shoot ing skill audi endurance Topper wein had straight runs of 14,640, 13,697, 13.292, and 10,383. It isn't likely this record will ever be beaten. It Is a tremendous strain to undergo such a performance. From the standpoint of endurance and the number of targets shot at and broken this feat stands as the world's greatest shooting iierform ance. Topperwein Is Ihe originator of many marvelous fancy shot. Also the drawing of beads, such as Uncle Sam, Indian Chief, and oth er people prominent in everyday life. He conceived the Idea of draw ing pictures with rifle bullets while an artist, and his artistic tempera ment is still with him. A large piece of tin or cardboard la used, faatened to poets in front of the audience, and then aa fast as the automatic will fire Topperwein draw tbe profile of Vncle Sam and other with bullet. in every senile of the word he is a remarkable shooter. Mr. Topperwein for a ecore of year haa been giving thla wonder ful shooting exhibition In behalf of the Winchester Repealing Arm Company. He la now on tour and will give one of his remarkable shooting exhibitions here on the af ternoon of April 12 at the local gun club grounds, id connecUoa with the prise shoot to ae held on that date. He will give exhibitions of hoot ing with various style of shot guns and rifles and everyone inter- jtd la Invited to attend and aee the remarkable shooting by the champion.
