ROSEBURG, OREGON,
. , ! FOREST
The forest Incendiary has made his annual appearance
in Douglas county, according .to official opinion concerning
the "origin of a string of fires near. Leona, reported so
closely aligned as to preclude theory of accident. The fires
are ascribed as usual as an attempt to extend pasture areas,
the district affected consisting chiefly of brush and having
been used for a goat range. 1 it will be argued quite frankly
that brush is of no material benefit to anyone but that good
pasture land may be highly profitable. No reasonable per
son will contradict this, but in the use of fire to clear land
no individual has the right to imperil the property and
lives of other persons. Such is the view of the law and
it is the correct one. One frequently hears the assertion
that it would be a good thing for the county if as much brush
as possible were burned away. Certainly eradication of
brush would promote the progress of the livestock industry
and perhaps add to the safety of matured timber, but it
is just as obvious that it would be sheer folly to leave to
individuals the privilege of clearing land by fire at will.
That the Indians of early days were wont to keep under
brush and immature tirnber burned away does not support
an argument for like practice at the present day, The sole
. purpose of the Indians, who had no property' at stake, was
to facilitate the pursuit of wild game. Their example would
be followed today for no belter reason by many white men.
Fortunately the law has wisely erected a barrier. Human
life and private property are first considerations, i, He who
deliberately endangers either by setting if ires contrary to
law; should suffer. It is regretted that not all those who
deliberately rind unlawfully Set fires in the wooded regions
are made to feel the heavy hand of justice.

'It has always been more or less an American tradi
tion that the newsboy is a poor, fatherless young chap who
supports a widowed mother and, probably, a sister or two
by the pennies he 'makes selling papers. Now comes the'
census department to announce that very few newsboys are
in this class; .' Most of them como. front good homes, it says,
and are not driven to selling papers by hard necessity. It
is a good thing for us to recognize this. The newsboy is
an ambitious young business man, putting in his spare time
wisely and profitably. ,: He is
the world of business that most young men do not learn un
til they roach their majority. Selling papers is an excellent
, training school. It is not by accident that so many of our
prominent business , and professional men earned their
first pennies in that way. Don't pity the newsboy who sella
you your paper, Admire him, rather, as an energetic, cap
able young American who has ambition.

And now the soda fountain, once the despair of dieti
tians and health authorities, comes in for a pat on the back,
Writing in the current issuo of Good Housekeeping, Dr.
Walter II. Eddy, of Columbia University, says that the soda
fountain is now an asset to the national health, whereas a
few years ago it was considered a detriment. Tho reason?
Wo are learning what to drink. ; Fountain sales show an
increasing consumption of pure fruit juico and milk drinks
m placo of tho artificially flavored, more or less mysterious
concoctions of a generation ngo. The change is good for
us. It is helping to balance our diet. The stenographer
who drops in at a drug store for a lunch of chocolate malted
milk and a sandwich is wisor, apparently, than some peo
ple think. . ' , . - ;
,;'In 15 Kansas coimlios the wheat yield' is expected to

POEM FOR THE DAY
' Dy LOUIS ALBERT BANKS
DUTY OR PRIVILEGE
Cbld duty is a stinging whip
That often one would like to skip,
But privilege a golden chance,
Is full of glorious romance.
A slave to duty is a drudge,
Oft feels that life holds him a grudge!
But privilege adventure high
That holds communion with the sky.
Stern duty has an iron hand
That grips men bondmen o'er the land,
But privilege awakes, inspires
The soul of man with quickening fires.
Cold duty keeps a cleanly home,
But never slakes a thirst to roam.
True love will fill it full of cheer,
Make it, of all the world, most dear.
'Tis duty makes, the sullen ilnve
Indeed, will sometimes make the knave;
But privilege a joyous sport '
That loves high excellence to court.
Oft duty seems but lifeless, dead
To go with dull and hanging head,
But privilege has flashing eyes
; And in them happy humor lies.
Though duty oft will play its role,
There is no gesture of the soul;
'Tween that and privilege a chasm
The latter holds enthusiasm.
While duty's often wintry, bleak
For overflowing does not seek,
Fair privilege has open arms
That wraps its work in winsome charms.

SCHOOL LESSON
Text: Acts 13:1-5, 13-15, 44-49.
Now there were In the church that wad at Antioch, certain prophets
and teachers; as Barnabas, and Simeon that was called Niger, and
Luu.ua ot Cyrene. and Mauen, which had been brought up with Herod ?
the tttrarch, and Saul. f ," ' '
As they ministered to the Lord and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, f
Si paruie me ttaruubas and Saul for the work whuieunto I have called .j,
them. '
And when they had fasted and prayed, and laid their hands on -them,
they sent them ayay. j
So they, being sent forth by the Holy Ghost, departed unto Seleu- .
cla; and from thence they sailed to Cyprus.
And uhen thty were at Salamls, they preached the word of God
In the synagOifueB of the Jews; and they had also John to their minister.
Now when Paul and his company loosed from Paphos, they cume
to perga in Pamphylia; and John departing from them, returned to
Jerusalem.
. Hut whei they departed from, Perga, they came to Antioch, in , T
Plshlia, and went Into the synagogue on "the sabbath day and sat'
down. '
And afl'er the reading of the law and tho prophets, the rulers of ?
the sjnagogue sent unto them, sayiug, Ye men aud brethren,, if ye have
any word of exhortation for the people, say on. i ; ; - ; i i J ,
nd the next eabbath day came almost the whole city together to
hear the word of God. -
But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with chv
and spake against those thing which were spoken by Paul, contra
dictlig and blaspheming. : t !
'then. Paul i ml Paruuhas waxed bold, and said, It was necessary
thut the won; nt God should first have been spoken to you: but seeing
ye put It from you, aud judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life,
lo, wo turn to the Gentiles. . ' - V v. ' ,i 0.

disciples became dominant. We
have seen how this group at An

first called fhri&tians, developed
this strong consciousness of the
Christian church.
The Bending out of Paul and
Barnabas from Antioch to visit
the regions beyond was the nat .
ural expression of what had hap
pened In Antioch itself. This first
missionary journey was the short
est of Paul's journeys, but it wan.
) a journey of deep significance and
j apparently of much triumph for
the second missionary Journey
(arose through a desire to revisit
the scenes where the influence of

Christianity during the first jour
