IMS PAPER RtHRESENIEO FOR F0RE16I ADVERTISING BY THE GENERAL OFFICES NEW YORK AND CHICAGO BRANCHES IN ALL THE PRINCIPAL CITIES EDUCATION. It is now approaching the time of year when the thoughts of boys and girls, educationally inclined, turn toward the college or high school. To some it will mean the realiza "tion of a dream wherein the con struction of life's ideals may be at tained. Though secured only through sacrifice, honest endeavor and, perhaps, doubly hardened by the necessity of earning daily bread. To others, with the careless heedlessness of youth, this new . era of life will hold nothing more than a chance for future enjoyment, the completion of which produces the disquieting knowledge of oppor tunities wasted. It is the paramount duty of every young man and woman to prepare for honorable citizenship. The school is the molder of charac ter, either good or bad, this de pending on the individual. An earnest student in a small school will accomplish more than an in different one at Yale or Harvard. Ambition and application are the forerunners of success. A great evil of the modern college is the maze of events which lure the mind of the student away from his work, making application difficult. A graduate who does not measure up to a certain standard hurts the standing of his school. The boy or girl who finds it necessary to wo'k their way through school generally makes better students than those of ample means, because ambition rules one, while the other goes as a matter of custom. It was Browning who expressed the thought, that, It is more worthy to reach for. a high ideal and fail, than to set a lower mark and attain it. That Lord Kitchner will come back to this life a la Villa is de duced from an article written by a correspondent who has just re turned to New York.

Now would be a good time for the Bend Commercial Club to invite the Redmond and Prineville clubs to break bread with them, for if we ever needed "harmony" it is at the beginning of this county divi sion campaign. Bend Press. Strange, isn't it, that this never occurred to the Press before? With crop prospects the best they have been in years, county seat matters apparently settled to the satisfaction of nearly everyone, business good in every line, the editor away on a vacation and pay checks written for a week in ad vance, Oh! we should worry! The Oregon open season for deer will commence at sunrise next Tuesday, August 15. Reports from all over the state are that the season will be the best in many years. Shooting of deer will be permitted from sunrise to sunset from that date until October 31. While cherishing the memories of Prineville's first Chautauqua, what is the matter of doing a little tauqing about the coming Crook County Fair and help to maintain Its reputation of being the best county fair in the state? A quarantine has been placed on California potatoes, due to the fact that the greater part of thorn shipped here have been affected with tuber moth. A little closer restriction on California booze might be more along the lines of the intention of the Oregon dry law. A large number of Central Ore gon republicans who desire to hear their favorite speak, and no doubt a large number from the other party who would like to steal his "thunder," will avail themselves of the opportunity to hear Charles E. Hugehs at Portland on the 16th of this month. OREGON NEWS NOTES OF GENERAUNTEREST Important Occurrences of Past Week Briefly Compiled for Cur Readers.
