But it is asked, how people can lie contented, when they see them selves falling: behind in the world, and finding it hard to ob tain even the ordinary necessaries of existence? But have such ones done anything to make their services valuable? Some of them are newcomers in this country, and do not even know its language. They can not expect to make pro gress while that handicap exists. Many of them have never manifested ambition. They watch the clock eagerly, hoping for the day's work to be over. It never occurs to them to fit themselves for any better work, or to do more work or work of a better quality. It may be said that business con ditions are so swayed by great aggregations of capital, that it is extremely difficult for a man to get ahead. Yet every day we see aliens who have come to this country during re cent years, who are building up successful business concerns, in spite of the great handicaps they had to carry. If people have' the right spirit, it does not take any great amount of riches for them to find a great deal to enjoy. Cheap enter tainments bring romance within reach of the humble home. Kadio instruments at very moderate expense bring one in contact with good music and amusing entertainments. Li braries bring good books. Newspapers and magazines are cheap. The industrious and intelligent workingman in these times can hope to own an automobile before many years. And there are many who have little money and have to economize very strictly, but who have families of children from which they derive infinite pleasure. Many wealthy men and wo men would Live all their money, for the affection and inter est that sunounds these penniless ones. o : The election of Dr. Geo. E. Houck, mayor of Iloseburg, to a vice-presidency of the public health league, organized tt Medford this week, was highly appropriate. During his long residence in this city, Doctor Houck has been promi nently identified with measures for the betterment of sani--liiry conditions and the safeguarding of public health. In these activities he has combined the methods of the exeri enced physician with the principles of a good business man. As a member of the city council about 15 years ago, Doctor Houck, as chairman of the health committee, was chiefly in strumental in bringing about needed improvements in sani tary matters, and his active interest in this vital factor of nuiliii-ipal welfare has not waned with the passing years years in which his professional experience was augmented villi valuable services in military units, both in this country and in France. His election to the office of mayor of this city was not only a tribute to his proved worth as a citizen, but an expression of confidence in his alrility as a btisiness man. The unqualified success he has made since assuming the guidance of the city's affairs has fully justified that con iidence, and his acceptance of an office of high responsibility in the public health league is a pleasing guaranty that the public is to receive the benefit of his valuable services for many years to come. o Appalling as wa3 the fate that befell the Shenandoah, one regards with almost equal horror the shameless vandal ism and graft that followed at its heels. Hardly had the bo dies of the 13 victims of the catastrophe been removed to an improvised morgue when the wreckage from which they were taken was visited by a horde of human scavengers who carried away everything of mechanical and monetary value that did not overtax their physical strength or the capacity of their automobiles. "Souvenirs" of the plane were hawk ed about at 125 cents each, and farmers on whoso land the wreckage was distributed did not scruplo to charge admis sion to visitors or for glasses of water to relieve their thirst. As One contemplates the morbid and commercial instincts thai dominate a certain class of humans in such times as this, it is difficult to understand why the elements that pro duce the tragedy do not also visit condign punishment upon those who make it an occasion for looting and enriching thoir poiketbooks. o The Oregon State Medical Society, in convention at Med fomtliis week, inaugurated a war on the common cold, pre cetrwl by the assertion of one of its members that the malady vuU'down the attendance al schools, thereby causing a loss of Jour per cent in school funds. The advisability of such a campaign for the physical welfare of youth will hardly be tiuc.-.lioiicd, but among our adult population the old familiar cold seems to have mysteriously disappeared with the retire ment from business of lho.se v. ell remembered professional jT?it:i, Messrs. Kock and live. The workingmen whith includes all of us--will n fwo-day session to rest up from their arduous duties, makes a worth-while week-end vacation. ;"" o . .

A radio program that will remind every veteran of war times in France. PORTLAND. Ore., Sept. . Powder River-r-r whoop-e-a Let 'er buek! They are going to Portland, by land, sea. and air, the doughboys of the 91st Division. Its Port land's turn at last. Seattle has had 'em. and San Francisco, and Los Angeles. Now they are to hold their annual reunion in Ore gon on the seventh anniversary of the opening ot the Meuse-Ar-gonne battle. The veterans of Portland are ready for them with a real he man's program of entertainment. This will be Oregon's first chance to entertain the only combat di vision from the Pacific coast that fought as a unit, and won Gen eral Pershing's commendation, and was selected by him as one of two American divisions to fight with the armies of the King of Belgium in the last great drive. They are going to Portland to meet, and slap, and greet, and dine as they did in that . dear France apres la guerre. They will fight again at Very crossroads, capture Eplnonvllle, Itanny woods, and wade thru the hell-fire at Gesnes, where so many doughboys laid down their lives. They will argue their way across and Ypres, take Spitaals Boschen and Audenarde, and accompany King Albert once more on his triumphal re-entry Into Brussels. It is always a great party the reunion anniversary of that cold, foggy morning when the 91st, in the center of an 18-mile American battle line, took the air against Fritr for the first t'me. A million Yanks hit the line that morning, and the 91st, 20.000 strong, went oer In the very cop ter of, the first wave. A lot of them went down, hut the battle maps and the casualty rolls of the 1st Prussian Guards Division, and other German commands rec ord to history what they accom plished.
