Some one has figured out that an educated man's vo cabulary averages about 18,000 words. An eloquent sil Qnce, however, indicates education about as effectively as any part of this eighteen thousand. . Now that we are soon to . know Iwhat the income tax schedules are to lie, many people are impressed with the difficulty of living within any income. The only thing that is harder is to live without one. The State Hoard of Health was a guest of the people of Union county recently. The visit of its memlwrs is an .important event in the,, health work-of t the county; the : work of its members is unimportant factor in the wolfai-e of all Oregon. No-state agency - is more devoted to-the best interests of the people whom-they sei-vc than is this board. Its members deserve every aid and cooperation in , forwarding the physical well-leing of our citizenship. ', ' ; THK LAST STRAW. ',i A Little Rock (Ark.) city councilman would forbid stage jokes "ridiculing prohibition, religion or faithfulness to marriage ties," and would bar from the stage "the dis play of feminine, nudity, except arms, shoulders, back from waist up and legs to the- Alices." The mayor of a Pennsyl vania city would prohibit jazz music in his fair municipality. ' A polico magistrate in our own slate of Oregon has fined n married couple for kissing in their automobile on a public, but secluded, thoroughfare. From iMartihsburg (W. Vn.) comes news of the enforcement of a burgess' edict against "parking necking," which, translated into pre war slang, means spooning in a parked automobile. The . new dictator of the Creeks has threatened imprisonment for all women who venture forth on. the boulevard with skirts of less than the length picscrilMd by him. New York's new mayor proposes to make Broadway dry be cause it is the big biitter-and-egg men from the west who. keep the great white way lit up all iiight and then go Uick home to vote dry and paint shockingly red pictures of the ! metropolis. But there is always that last straw which breaks the camel's back. Ami the spine-splintering' straw in this in ; stance is the baimin;; of coined beef and cabbage in Chi- cage's fashionable apartment hotels. The sanctity of the I home exists no longer. All those other losses or threatened : losses of personal' liberties might have leeii stoically ig- ! nored, but deprivation of his "coin and " must turn the patience of the nioi.t patient man to wrath if not to open revolt.
