"Wyoming leads tho states in mili
tary training in the public schools.
Ninety per cont of her High School
boys are receiving military instruct
ion. The state of New York has
placed upon its statue books a law'
providing - for ' compulsory military
training for' boys between 16 and 19.
Harvard University hcs added a de
partment, of military instruction to
her curriculum and more than a thous
and of her students have voluntarily
entered upon its work.
. The ages from 16. to 24, the average
of High School and college male stud
ents, comprise tho best period for en
thusiastic and lasting effort in phy
sical development. The energy which
has hitherto been directed toward the
preparation of a few : students for
football, baseball, track and rowing,
may now be diverted toward the sym
metrical perfection and training of
the entire student body.
Most men are regretful that oppor
tunity was not available in the years
of their youth for the scientific mus
cular education which assures a per
fect body, a forceful personality, an
erect posture and a bearing which, is
at once graceful nd 'commanding.
The best assurance of permanent
peace is a citizenship which the -world
knows is prepared for tattle if con
flict ever comes. The best assurance
of public health lies in that training
of our youth which brings home to all
tho accepted rules of sanitation. - The
best assurance of a virile manhood is
promised in the training of mind and
body made possible by the manual of
arms.

The first initiative measure on this
year's ballot now nam 2d the "Full
Rental Value Land Tax and Home
makers' Loan Fund Amendment'', is
the same single tax scheme that has
adorned the ballot year after year,
this time wearing a new dress and
bearing a new title. A now bait to
catch votes has also been added. Fol
lowing is the history of attempted
single tax legislation in Oregon dur
ing the past eight years.
In 1908 an amendment proposed by
"The Oregon Tax Reform association"
(single taxers) exempting personal
property and improvements was de
feated by a vote of 60,871 no's to 32,-
066 ayea. It was admitted to be a
first step toward single tax.
In 1910, an amendment abolishing
the poll tax carried by a vote of 44
171 ayes to 42,127 no's. Only after its
passage was - the following "joker"
discovered; "Providing for the people
of each county to regulate taxation
and exemptions within the county,
regardless of constitutional restric
tions or state statutes and abolishing
poll or head "tax."
'In 1912, single tax measures were
submitted in Multnomah, Clackamas
and Coos counties, and were defeated
in each county by more than a 2 to 1
vote. ,
At the same election, an amend
ment proposing "state-wide single tax
with a graduated tax provision" was
defeated by 82,015 no's to 31,534 ayes.
At this election the "joker" referred
to above, was repealed.
In 1914, two amendments were sub
mitted: One, providing for a $1500
exemption, was defeated 136,193 . to
65,495; the other, providing for a
specific personal graduation extra tax,
was defeated, 124,943 to 69,186. , By
