Tom Marshall, vice president during Wilson's admini-s-tiation, is dead and the nation has suffered u real losi. Marshall was a much keener man than is usually tho Country's lot to have in a vice president. I to was a stateR juan and a patriot. Ho saw beyond thVpefCy "Tines oTpiTi'tio';! iuid politics. His contribution in common sense and busi ness judgment to the nation was more than the present, generation has yet appreciated. j . : : I NOT A QUESTION OK HOW. f The supreme court decision that the Oregon compulsoiy k'hool law is unconstitutional and therefore invalid is nut (surprising. Parental right to determine how their children' thall be educated and where tliev shall be educated is not to be questioned. The constitution protects the individu.il iigainst such legislation but it does- not prevent, legislation providing compulsory education of some kind for children fy certain ages, whether it be given in public, parochial, or private institutions. Tho primary consideration of tin people of Oregon should be that their future citizens be educated to a reasonable degree, competent to take theti' places in the community, equipped to .share the burdens l'f life. That can be compulsory, but it is beyond the power of the legislature to say where and how it shall be accomp lished. j A'OTKHK WAN'TKM TiiMnUIKlW ) At the special city election tomorrnw, voters of l.a Claude must decide four major issues that will exercise a large influence on the future comfort, convenience, health. imd safety of the city. They deal with water supply, sew age disposal, storm sewers, and lire protection impiovo-pienfs. . ', No intelligent i-esideni of the city but will admit thai. these improvements, or similar improvements seeking to rccomphsh the same purposes, will have to be approved by the voters of the city sooner or later if they are not fissured tomorrow. It is true that the city might continue on the present basis without serious disaster or serious cost for another two or three years or more: but it is e ;- tiemely doubtful if such action could he backed by good business logic. Today it is a question of whether or no: the community wishes to take a chance of further delay, whether or not we can afford to economize by turning these improvements down, whether or not we are willing i to spend now for the sake of making substantial savings I later. . f f..i : i j : i j i . . . the duty of ovcry voior.

The owl is a fine specimen of sculpture and as u symbol of the good sense that hus prevailed In the selection of the pictures shown this year, he it regarded by critics as being right. The choice collection of art the two leading societies jot together is due, in the first instance, to the fact thut the International Impo sition of Decorative Arts drove them out of the Grand Tulais. They took refuge In temporary haniacks ulong the Heine, in the Tuih-rics gardens, where they have about half the space provided In their usual quarters on the Champs Kty sees. KoverH of art say it was a happy accident. It raised the av erage merit of the canvases shown. accentuating the contrast between art of the classical school and the efforts of the modernists who have made of the Decorative Arts Im position an affair which lias Incited sharp criticism und discussion. , There Is a good deal of sun.shine, lots of refreshing green, many pas toral studies that show a healthier selection of subjects, and u great deal less of the art that looks as If It had been put onto canvas with a spade. The subjects are not only more wholesome, but the technitnu! Is more In lino with what the pro fane would think to be the proper way of making a picture look like the subject it is supposed to por- t ray. Hobbed hair does not yet seem to have appealed to the artist. Por traits of women are palsied with tile full 'allotment of nature. The nude is discreet in point of volume, as well as in respect to treat ne nt. There are some striking canvases in this department that will prob ably some day find their way Into public galleries. That the influ ence of till? var on art i3..w;intng is one of the lessons of the show. Military subjects are rare, and those that are shown are painted not to glorify heroism but lo show the horrors of war. This is par ticularly noticeable in the sculp ture section. In late ears this de partment has looked like a large cemetery, moat of the subjects hav ing been made to serve as monu ments to the dead on the field of battle. . This year there are very few pieces that suggest wor or mil itarism. The success that has followed the decisions of the jury in cutting down the show without doing in justice to any meritorious work, will, some critics believe, result in a continuation of tho policy of more careful weeding than lias prevailed of late years. It will also, they think, prove a great ben efit to artists. Inciting them to greater effort when it once again becomes certain that mediocre works will in future slum! small chance of admission.

A I t'haVlea W. Henderson, mineral geographer of the railed Slates Geological sur vey, points out I hat even a moun tain cup not engage in "galloping" without pausing to "catch its breath." He believes I hut the ''moving mountain" on the highway between Meeker and I line. 'olo., may be resting for a not her slide into the l:io Blanco valley. A number of large cracks have appeared across the base of 1he mountain, and this, according to Henderson, indicates that the base of the peak is weakening. If this base, a stratum of sandstone, gives away, the mountain is expected to slip farther into the valley. Geologist u attribute the move ment of the mountain partly to a "physical amputation" of Its base, made for the construction of the highwuy. This slicing of the peak's toe apparently tiiset its equilib rium, t hey say.
