Helens st -30 P. M. M. M M The Logging Congress whic was held in Tacoma last summer passed a resolution requesting that the states of Oregon, Wash ington. California, Idaho and British Columbia provide courses in the various universities in log' ging engineering and to grant degrees upon completion of such courses. The proposed course was taken up and discussed by the regents of the Oregon Agri cultural College at Corvallis and was endorsed by them. It is pro posed to establish this course for the purpose of providing educa . tion along the lines of logging so that the logging business wil be in the hands of competent men. It is believed that logging engineering ia a science that re quires much study to successfully carry on the business. The tim ber industry in Oregon Is enor mous, as the following figures will prove: Standing timber in Oregon.545.800.000.000 feet;value on stump SC80.000.000; value when manufactured. $6. 822, 500, 000; value of output in 1912 was $30,000,000, for which wages were paid amounting to $14,000, 000, and supplies furnished amounting to $10,000,000. With this wonderful array of figures based on accurate estimates and figures. Representative Hagood of Multnomah county has intro duced a bill in the legislature providing for a course in Logging Engineering at the Agricultural College and appropriating $Gf.000 for that purpose. Taking into consideration the great wealth in timber in Oregon, the great sums paid for labor and supplies and the further fact that at least 50 per cent of the entire taxes of the state are paid by the timber, it seems that the appropriation should he made and that logging engineering should become a science, A bill has been introduced in the House at Salem bv Repre sentative Hall of this county to fix the salary of the School Superintendent of Columbia Co. at $1500 a year. There is no doubt but that the bill is a good pne so far as it goes, but inas much, as, Mr, If all is going to pro vide for the raise in the salary of the superintendent from $i00 to $1500 a year, it Beems that the other officers of the county, who are also underpaid, should be raised in like manner. The offices of sheriff, clerk, assessor, and treasurer are important and the men who hold these posi tions are entitled to more pay than they are now getting. The office of school superintendent is qne of great importance to the community and the incumbent is entitled to a good salary, the amount asked for in the bill of Mr. Hall, but while he is in the business why not adjust all the salaries, and make them commen surate with the services rendered. to future offort. As a result of the inspiration gained last year we hope to have practically every one of the 125,000 school children of the state engaged in some phase of the work this year. To those who did not get In terested last year and are not fs miliar with the rules of the contest we wish to say that they are very simple, The most important one Is that the children must do the work themselves and that the parent or guardian will be required to sign a statement to that effect. In raining garden, someone else may plow the ground and harrow it, but the child must do .the rest the planting cultivating, harvesting, etc. In raising poultry the child does not have to own the parent flock, but must set the eggs and feed and care for the chickens they exhibit. One of the main objects of these contents is to get the boys and girls interested in doing something. To teach them to do something practi. cal, something worth while, some thing by which they can earn a liv ing when they grow up to manhood and womanhood. And the only way to learn how to do something s to do that thing with your own hands. If you show something that omeone else has raised or made you are cheating yourseir out ol the most valuable part of the con test the experience gained by do ing it yourself. Not only that, but in showing something that Is not the product f his own effort he Is practicing de ception, cultivating dlnhodesty and laying the foundation for a life of dishonor and trouble. He may be successful in deceiving others No one buthimrelf and the members of his own family may ever know that he has cheated, but that is enough. n doing what he knows is not right he loses respect for himself, and that is a long step In the wrong di rection. When a person loses re spect for himself he soon looses the confidence and respect of others. To thyself be true, and it follows as the day follows night that no ther man canst be false." Every child should early in life get this principle firmly fixed in his mind and through life never depart from the abovi entitled cait-e, Vi me dlrec ed and date I tlie ltttb day Ol Jan. 1MIS, upon a judgment and decree rendered and entered lit ail J court an J causa i,n said luth day of Jan. 1013.

The only dock at which river boat can land in this city is a privately owned dock, all takep up with j'.nvSjt'e warehouses and to small to accommodate the traffic. There Is no place for small craft to lie except to the piling along under the dock at the foo of tha strand. Thre Is the old tumble down affair near the Court House, which is a dangerous trap and an eyesore, but it serves, no. use fu,l purpose either to its owners or to the public. There is an innni air a tai a mtnii nniv ar inn fWtQf St. Helens street. The street is 95 feet wide and the Muff there seems to have been, to order for the building 'eck dock. There is f docks in the city - should be taken PurcnU, don't think you are favoring your child by giving or aning him something to the fair to win a prize with, for you are not. On the other hand, you are doing im an absolute injustice. You are cheating him out of the valuable xperience of learning how to do mething, and at the same time lucating him to b dishonest. Character building ia the most im portant part of the early education f the child, and the greatest value in these industrial contests is along that line, forming in the child habits f industry, economy, system, self- liance, honest;, and all the traits hich go to make up the good citizen. There will be many valuable prizes for the children at tle Suite air again next year, but none of them w ill be worth ns much ns a ear conscience and, the experience gained by raising or making thinss with which to win the priaes.
