The better members of the law profession have held their skirts about them snugly, letting the dirty work be carried ou by those .who had their own selfish purposes to serve, political or oth erwise. We believe the time has arrived when these better jmem hcrs had better show initiative ,of their own towards a housecleaning which seams to be badly jieeded." If the Voter means that a house cleaning is needed In the legal pro fession alone, and without refer ence to the political situation the above might be tukeu for what it 1b worth. The statement was made, however, at the close of a political discussion in that magazine. The legal profession cannot be blamed for the fact that certain of its members whether iu ill or good repute professionally, seek political glory. The voters of the state are parLly to blame for that, but not en tirely. More properly the blame for the fact that attorneys so predominate in public life should be laid at the ! door of members of the other busi nesses and professions in the state. The dearth of leaders in public life recruited .from business lu one of our political Ills. If attorneys . ure compelled to take the lead in pub lic affairs und If occasionally an undesirable ono becomes a leader, the legal profession as a whole Is not to blamo. Oregon Editors' Opinions Nothing But Politics (Saloon Capital -Journal) TUB removal of Judge Robert W. Sawyer of Bond from the highway commission is nothing but politics. Governor Norblad may niako what protestations he may; but his action is pu....v.j pure and simple, or Impure and unholy if you look at it that way. Judge Sawyer has taken Uie time to study the highway prob lems of Oregon thoroughly. He went on the commission w ell equip ped because he had served for years as county judgu of lies chutes county. He has been fi nancially situated so he could de vote time and money lo the work. Just recently Jio spent weeks iu Washington, I. C, at heavy per sonal expense, doing w hat he .could to secure appropriations for Ore gon roads. His going off the highway com mission will be a big loss to the state. No man the governor can ap point will ho as well equipped men tally and physically with such a background of experience as Judge Sawyer. Removal of Sawyer Deplored (Portland Oivgunlan, The political aspect of (lie re moval of Judge Sawyer from the highway commission , cannot bu overlooked. Just such action has been cm-rent rumor for Home time and has been aitrihuled to a poli tical alignment which the governor entered into and which whs unfav orable to Sawyer. The public can not help but ferl that a political motive is behind the removal, a circumstance that is to be deplor ed. The high Ideal of keeping poll tics out of road administration has hii'n faithfully adhered to in the past. Governor Norblad senses the basic soundness of this w hen he says that he intends to make no further changeH of personnel, nor to interfere with Hie employ ment of the highway engineer. Commissioner's Work Commended (MedCord Mail Tribune) Judge Sawyer is a rare combina tion of the thoroiuch cenllcmnu. iu the best Inlrrprtduttmi of that term; and a capable executive, sin cerely devoted to the interests of the people. In the construction of better mads, he has always heeu a loyal friend of southern Oregon, and yet one ot the most conspicuous traits of liis character has been his abso lute fiUruess. refusal to play In volutes, his rigid adherence to the principleand the right principle that the highway coiimii.-slon Is not a political organization, nor a local development tirgaiHut ion but an organization devoted to the highway Interests of the entire slate. Always courteous ami consider ate. Judge Sawyer has neverthe less been a courageous fighter for every cause which he believed to he right, and by slit cr miici ity and dependability, has reiaiii' d uoi onlyjiie affocliou, of lit Ii lends, but the respect and good will of nis opponents. He is too valuable a man on the highway commission to be remov-1 ed luls time. Sawyer High Type Citizen (Coos Bay Times) Governor Al W. Norblad has lost heavily in esteem among business and professional leaders in Oregon by ousting Judge Robert W. Saw yer from the al&Ui highway coin miKsion. Judge Sawyer Is among that rare class of citizens, a man de voted lo public service for the ul timate interest of the entire state. Those men who know Judge Saw yer know there Is no political eu phony in that sentence. Judge Sawyer, a graduate with honors of Harvard law school, county judge of ability, among the outstanding publishers of the state. a sound, keen, well-educated busi ness man, can afford to and has continually given the bulk of bis time to the well-nigh "sacred tank," as he termed it, of seeing Oregon's highway program brought to completion. A notable "hobby" of the judge's while bent on this Job, has been to preserve to tin slate the scenic beauties along its highways as well as to build straighter, better-graded routes of travel. The judge has been unceasing and devoted in his efforlH. His service has been above the taint of "politics"; his motives, genuine, laudable. To think that he would be summarily dismissed, Is - to think that Oregon no lunger appre ciates civic devotion. Pledges Held Violated (Salem Capital-Journal) For the first time since its or ganization, .Governor Norblad is making the slate highway commis sion the football of politics. The summary and .unjustifiable remov al of Robert W. Sawyer, one of the most capable and useful mem bers of the commission cannot be construed otherwise. While it is a fulfillment of pre-prlmary prom ises made for political support it is also a violation of pre-prlmary pledges publicly made by both the governor and his campaign man ager to the people. Upton Held Paid Off (I,n Urnntle Obsorver) Jay Upton o( Bond supported Norblad in the recent primaries. Juy .Upton dislikes bin fellow-towns-man, Judgo Sawyer. Upton is paid off with Sawyer'a removal. The removal of Corrigan from the stale game board carries a similar story.

The patient must have special feeding, but the physician iu attendance will see lo this. He inurti direct the treatment. One uf the common causes of In digestion Ih taking food without chewing It properly, whole pieces of meat and other food are too commonly swallowed without chewing.

"Knollwood," to visit the hospital, but never reached there. Foul play is feared when Jim Pennington reports his wife. Pauline, and Emily's best friend, also missing. Pennington says he lett his wife at the ravine, a short distance from the Duane home. When he returned she had van ished. The police find Polly's body in the ravine. Pennington is pros trated. Now Go on With the Story CHAPTER XVII. Gibby could do nothing in the matter, he couldn't make search where better and wiser searchers were covering the ground. He concluded to go home; it was only right the tale shou 4 be passed on to the others, so l.j gave one last glance at the by nquad of police and their helpers, civilian and official, who were making notes and talking In low tones. A tall skinny lad came up to him and said abruptly: "Ain't you a friend of them Pen nineton foMcs?" "Yes," returned Gibby, "who are you?" "I'm the guy Murdock got to climb down there and help him. I can climb!" Gibby glanced at his lithe slim ness and his muscular legs and arms and said he didn't doubt it. "Well, I can; so the p'lice they hired me to go down and help Murdock, so I did. Murdock can climb, too." The last rnther grudgingly. "Well, what about it?" asked Gibby, pretty sure the boy wanted an honorarium. "Why, this. After we put the lady in the hammock and the fellerB up above hauled her up, I looked around so see what I could see, and I found this. So I brought It here to give to Mr. Pennington, but he's gone, they say. So can I give it to you?" He held out a sable neckpiece, of considerable value. Gibby was a bit surprised that he hadn't stolen it, but realized that a superstitious person couldn't do that. "Yes, I'll take charge of It. I'm staying at .Miss Duaue's house, aud I'll give it to the ladies there and they'll see that it reaches Mr. Pen nington." He reached In his pocket, but the hoy said quickly: "No, mister, 1 don't want no pay." And looked so frightened that Gibby more than ever mar veled at tho extent of the fear of the dead. "All right, Bub. What's your name?" , "Billy McGuire. I can climb." "Yes, that's just it. Now, Hilly, suppose you do some climbing. You know Miss Duane is lost. She may be iu the other ravine, or even in this same one." - "No, sir, she ain't." , "How do you Jtnow?" 1 "I ben a-lookin'. First thing l heard that young lady was missin'i ! dumb down into the ravine by j the hospital that's where theyi said she was headed for and she wasn't there' "Did you hunt any more?" "Well, no. It got dark and soon after Murdock sent for me to help him." "Then you haven't hunted at all. Now you get up with the sun to morrow morning and hunt good and plenty. I hope to heaven jiou l don't find her, but you can see fori yourself there is a chance. You'll be well paid for your time." "I'll do it. Lordy, I couldn't keep away from thom ravines. Hut most of the rails is higher than the one Mrs. Pennington fell over." "All right, Hilly, you do what you can in the way fo climbinr down to see. And I'm much obliged to you for returning this fur tippet. Good night. "Good night, sir." Gibby walked toward the Duane house. He passed the Miller house, right across the road from which ran a small street, really a lane. whore Wallace's was. Wallace's was an institution. The only shop on that side of town whore ono could buy candy, cigarettes, cos metics and such matters as might be noedod in a hurry. Gihhy looked back to the little ravine and pictured Paulino stand ing there while Jim went to Wal lace's on the trifling errand. Pic turod hor look in? over the rail, realized the strange lure high places or prerlplees have for some natures and pictured hor throwing herself ovor. For he didn't much hnlieve it was an accident. Th bridge rails wore pretty sturdy across the ravines, and he had no ticed the nervous, restless state of Mrs. Pennington. They had told him she had never ceased to mnurn tho death of her baby. Per haps she somehow hoard of th birth of the Laurence child, and. knowing she cnuld never have an other herself, had yielded to im pulse and decided to give up her weary, uselrss life. Hut Gibby was given fo fanries and as he went alon?. over the bin ravine and In at the Knollwond entrance, his thoughts camo back to Kmllv. nnd Pauline Pennington"! awful fate was oclinsed. The group In the lounire was only slightly decreased since ho had left it. And no word was asked or of fered to denote that anything had bon hoard of Emily. Craven had gone home and Aunt Judy had been persuaded to go to bed. So. with PennnrJon abnt there remained just the wedding, house party. I 'Tell us about It " Nell quizzed, l'erenetoril. "don't wait to he, :ii".-! -I.'' "Ami Utm't ke.-u auvtltUu: back, added Rodney. "We can stand auv- thing now." So Gibby told them in a straight forward aud accurate way the events of the rescue of Mrs. Pen nington's body and the taking of it to the hospital. "It seems so queer," Betty ob served, "Polly was one of the chief ones in getting that hospital built and now she's there berself." "Had she melancholia at all?" asked Gibby. "Not exactly that, but she had queer spells "Queer, how?" "Ob, I don't know It wasn't quitd epilepsy, but a sort of hys teria." "Then I bet she threw herself over " "Oh, no, no," cried Betty, "she never would do that." "You can't tell what she'd do, Hut the thins ia, what are we go Ing to do? If you don't want to go to bed, Rod, we men will sit up with you. Theres positively noth Ing to be done, but what do you say?" Sayre looked quietly Indignant "I couldn't go to bed, Pete. I'm sure nobody could in these circum stances.1 Anyway, I can't. But I don't want you people sitting up with me. Go along and get some rest, and Lord knows you need it, Hetty and Nell go to your rooms and relax. Put on your kimonos, so you can come down, if neces sary, but lie down on your beds and try to sleep. 1 shall just stay here in this room, or wander out ou the lawn." "We'll all stay up awhile long er," Betty said, kindly. "Maybe she'll come home." Rod threw her a grateful glanc for this speech, and Nell wished she had thought to make it. "Oh, here's Mrs. Pennington's fur neckpiece." Pete said, sudden ly remembering it. "Why, that's Emily's!" cried Nell and Rodney sprang up. "No. it isn't," Betty told them, "Emily and Polly had them just alike. They bought them at the same time, and though they're a little out of date now, they both cling to them. "Where'd it come from?" asked Rod, his spirits sinking back to apathy. "It was found where Mrs. Pen nington's body was found," Gibby told them. "Hut it wasn't discov ered until after she had been brought up. Then the chap who found it brought it to give to Jim, and as Jim had gone this boy asked me to take care of it." "Who is he?" . "I don't think he is connected with the police, but they hired him touight to climb down the ravine to assist Murdock. He's a great climber." "He Is?" and Rod's mind worked along the lines Petes had. "Then why don't we " "Gei him to climb down and look for Kmily? We're going to. old man. I asked him to rise at dawn tomorrow and go to it." "Good for you. Pete," and Sayre's glance said far more than his words. (To Be Continued Tomorrow) Copyright liiSO, King Features Syndicate, Inc.
