Editor ,.' La Grande Observer) We
have noted with interest the dispute
arising between the La Grande M. 1.
A. and the Union Athletic club (Feds)
over the club championship of East
ern Oregon, and having interviewed
' Mr. Lorsen and Mr. Smith, the mana
gers of the respective teams, we find
that if the deciding game is played 11
must be played on a neutral floor.
Therefore we invite the two teams to
play the deciding contest in our hull.
Should they do this -we assure them
our heartiest support. The NortH
Powder hall is one of the largest in
Eastern Oregon, and will seat about
500. v Since both teams have played
here this season, and are familiar
with the floor, neither would have
any advantage over the other.

New Theory of Hygiene
n ii -
Quick, and practical response to
imnnrtunt pronouncements of Scienti
fic theory is characteristic of today.
Formerly doctors and other scient
ists usually knew things for a gener
ation before the public paid attention.
A fine illustration of the modern
tendency is found in a general order
to trainmen issued by the General
Superintendent or the Onion Pacific
System. This order warns against
the overheating of cars and requires
that certain temperatures be main
tained exactly for the sake of pas
senger's health.
It is less than two years since a
scientist made a eecieaj of experi
ments which proved to medical au
thorities that high temperatures were
more injurious to health than. lacK
of f:esh air yet here is this new
and important theory already in prac
tice and on an important scale.
Following is the text of the order
issued to trainmen by General Super
intendent W. M. Jeffers of the Union
Pacific Svstem: "All sleepers, chair

Deputy Game Warden Tonkin,
agent of the state department in
Umatilla county, writing for the Jan
uary issue of the Oregon Sportsman,
which lhas just been distributed, es
timates that there are this year more
elk and deer in , this section of the
country than for many years.
Mr. Tonkin's report follows:
1 The deer sign in this county indi
cate that the deer are more plentiful
than for the past few years, but fewer
deer than usual have been killed in
the hunting season of 1915. 'We hud
a very dry fall and the bucks seem to
e growing more alert and shy.
'There are few places now that cannot
be reached by the automobile parties
and mor0 hunters are in the hills each
succeeding year.
It is estimated that fifty deer were
killed in this county during the past
season. Only five hunters wero
known to have killed the limit; very I

success at I
Several hunters from
oi cne county wno nafl seen deer dur
ing the season wove questioned as to
the numler and sex of the doer that
they hud seen and also asked their
opinion regarding the hunting luws.
The forty-two hunters thus questioned
saw four hundred and Khii'tv.fnm,
deer, one hundred and thirty-seven of.!
which were deer with horns and the
remaining two hundred and ninety
scven were does and young deer.
They killed twenty-six bucks.
Some hunters contend that there
were too many does in comparison
with the number of bucks and that
the killing of at least one doe in a
season should be permitted. That is
what led ino to question the hunters
and find out if possible, something up
on which we could base our estimate
of the comparative number of the two
sexes.
Umatilla county now has about 110
elk, 90 of which ore native elk rang
ing in the hills in the southeastern
part of the county. Many of the elk
that were liberated in the northeast
ern part of the county hnve left for
haunts, of their choosing. It is be
lieved that the action of the State
Fish and Game Commission in offer
ing $100 reward for conviction in elk
killing will nearly, if not quite, per

The French people have not, so far,
produced a spiritually servile class.
The occupation most dangerous to the
soul that of peraonul service has not
resulted for the people of France In
fluukyisui on the one. hand and su
perior airs ou the other.
There Is something In the poise) and
motion of French working girls,, in
tbeir fearless eyes and vibrant voices,
that suggests a fluid and mobile social
structure which deepens the impres
sion of rigidity in the life across the
channel and beyond tho Rhine. French
people of the more favored classes are
never heard bemoaning the decay of a
"proper" servant class. On the con
trary, if you speak to them of 'the
striking contrast between the French
proletariat und that of other countries
theirs so natural aild gay, the others
so humble or so: sullen or both they
Instantly expand with pride. "Exact
ly!" they exclaim. "Our brnve French
people: .lust as good us monsieur, as
mudaiiic, but also no better!"
The status of the French domestic
derives In part at leuxt from the weight
of responsibility under which she
6ervcs. For her mistress Is neither a
careless housekeeper nor an Indifferent
mother. It, Is precisely because the
French woman loves her children so ar
dently, so romantically, one might say.
and because her quick, intelligent grasp
of material situations makes lier an
excellent econopiist at home that she
requires and establishes lu the house
hold not a common servant, not a
"mother's helper," but a woman of In
telligence and character,' a woman oft
en young and untried, but with the
true ring, who Is or soon becomes ca
pable of assuming direct responsibility
for tiie care of the children and the
house a woman who deserves and re
ceives the consideration due to the
head of an importunt department iu
the management of the family life.
French children are notoriously spoil
ed. The little mouarchs are kept ou a
pedestal well Into the age.of moral re
sponsibility. Father, mother, all-the
older relatives, vie with one another In
admiring and Indulging them. With
this understanding of the term and
scope of the child's autocratic rclgu,
one can- afford to laugh ut turbulent
scenes In which be puts to rout every
adult in the house except his bonne.
At the mere sight of her tho little des
perado begins to quiet down. He is in
tho presence of the only person who
has, so fur, exercised nny rational uu
thorlty over him, the person before
whom he feels the beginnings of shame
nt doing wrong. . .
The bonne is the most Important per
son In the family group, so fur as its
material well being is concerned. And
morally, spiritually, she is a true mem
ber of the family. It is not for nothing
that the word "bonne" means ."good"
as well as "nurse."
It may be that the prevailing good
rclution between masters and servants
n Franco has a very simple explana
tion simple and yet profound. It may
be that it springs at bottom from the
warm affections of the people. They
cannot live without love and senti
ment. Belter than any other people
they know how to keep alive the ro
munce of friendship, of love und even
of that Inherently bad relntlWn, master
and slave. ,
The French servant who has no fum-
lly ties and often the one who has
throws her whole heart und soul into
the family life of her master and mis
tress.
She must love she must serve she
must be loved. And the French muster
and mistress understand. Each one
idealizes the sentiments of the other.
n a word, the romance of the situa
tion grips them nil. French literature
Is crowded with examples of mistress
and servant whose intimacy shows no
race of condescension on the one side
or of servility ou the others. J. Fran
