Portland. April 14—A clean and
vigorous state-wide campaign, with
no abuse or attacks directed against
any other candidate, and the pledge
to support whatever candidate is
nominated at the Houston convention,
are the lines to be followed by Ore­
gon Smith supporters, according to
word from the Smith for President
Association, which has recently op­
ened headquarters in the Seward ho­
tel.
A clerical force has ben installed
and are kept busy handing out or
mailing the literature essential to
such an educational campaign as has
been planned to make the people
acquainted with the merits of the
New York governor
John C. Veatch. chairman of the
executive committee voices the senti­
ment of the Smith workers in these
words:
“No mud-slinging at any time, On
the contrary, we’d rather have our
workers say a good word for the
other fellow. Our primary purpose
is educational, since we want the
people of Oregon to know wh.;t kind
of a man Al Smith is and why we are
heart and soul for his nomination,
But whether in victory or in defeat,
we intend to go to the Houston con­
vention pledged to support the can-
didate selected by the delegates.”
With the opening of the Portland
headquarters, the Smith campaign
has taken on active aspects, and tele­
grams and letters pledging support
are pouring into the office.
Preceding the Smith victory at the
Spokane convention. Utah came into
line with 16 delegates uncompromis-
ingly for Smith, according to a tele-
gram from Salt Lake. Besides, re-
ports from Smith workers in Borl­
land and other Oregon points indi-
cate that the popular New York gov­
ernor will have little trouble in win­
ning the Oregon nomination sine-
other democratic candidates are more
or less inactive, at least in this State

Quilla Long in Use
Quills are supposed to have been
used for writing pens In the Fifth cen
tury, though the conjecture rests
mainly on an anecdote of Theodorlc.
king of the Ostrogoths, who, being so
illiterate that he could not write even
the initials of his own name, was pro
vided with a plate of gold through
which the letters were cut. and. till-
being placed on the paper when bh
signature was required, he traced th-
letters with a quill. The date of til-
earliest certain account of the mod
ern writing pen Is Ö36. The next no­
tice occurs In the latter part of the
same century, in a Latin sonnet to a
pen by Aldhelm, a Saxon author.
Steel pens were first made by Wise,
in England, tn 1803.
Generous Enough
An old merchant, a landlord, of
southern Indiana, quite wealthy, was
riding majestically over his many acres
after attending to some business with
Ms tenantry. He was surprised In
catching a man in one of his corn
bins putting corn Into a sack. Draw
ing up. he said:
"Say, what air you doin' there In
my corncrib?”
"Why. can’t you see?” the fellow
answered. “ I’m taking some of your
corn.”
Astounded at his boldness, th­
landlord was at first speechless
Finally, he managed to say:
"Well, tech as light on’t as you can

High Aapirationa
Robert Louis Stevenson, while liv­
ing at Skerrymore, had the Idea of
adopting a boy in whom he was In
terested. as his “body servant," and
giving him such education as he could
assimilate. Before doing so, relates
II. L. S.’s great friend, dear little old
Miss Adelaide Boodle, he put It to the
boy (mint blank whether any other
walk in life held for him more power­
ful attraction. The answer came with­
out a moment's hesitation:
“Please, sir, I wish I could be Mr.
Townsend's boy."
Mr. Townsend was the local flab-
monger.
Arbor Day
Tree-planting festivals are probably
as old as civilization. Sacred trees
and groves, planted avenues and road­
sides, shaded academic walks and me­
morial trees were common long be
fore America was discover«!. Arbor
day. as such, however, is purely Amer
¡can in origin and grew out of condi­
tions peculiar to the great plains of
the West, a country practically tree­
less over much of Its area, but sup
porting a flourishing agriculture and
with a soil and climate well able to
nourish tree growth. Arbor day orig
inated and was first observed In Ne
braska In 1872.
Waking Dreams
"Asleep” and “awake" are relative
terms. All persons do not sleep with
equal soundness. Frequently one will
dream most when he Is merely dozing.
He may then be partly conscious of
what Is taking place around him. A
person wide awake does not dream In
the strict sense of the word. In "day­
dreaming” the term is used In another
sense; namely, a reverie or Idle ex­
ercise of the fancy.
Alligator Market
Alligators, measuring from two feet
to seven feet are the choice ones for
the hide market, an alligator hunter
explained, stating that no matter how
long an alligator Ie the markets pay
only for a seven-foot length. Tbe
skin Is not taken off the backs of tbe
larger alligators, but the full skin,
back and all, is taken from the small­
er ones.
“Buttonholer Coming”
Mother had told Marjorie, age four,
that when grandmother came she
would sew some buttons on her dress
and work some buttonholes.
A few days later when she was in
formed that her grandmother would
arrive that day she said. “Oh. goodie,
mv hiiiton and buttonholer 1« coming.'

gene.—A total of 138 men students of
the University of Oregon found regular
employment through the university em
ployment bureau during the winter
term, it is announced by Mrs. Charlotte
R. Donnelly, in charge. Earnings of
these students totaled $14,736, an in
crease of »475 over the same term last
year. Another $1,000 was earned by
students who did odd jobs during tbe
past three months, it is stated.
More self supporting students than
ever before are now registered in the
University, says Mrs. Donnelly, and
this las made jobs scarce. Spring, with
its attendant work in gardens and sim
ilar fields, is expected to furnish em
ployment for many students who would
ot tier wise be compelled to drop out.
