SEEN FROM THE
OPTIMISES TOWER
The other day the Optimist ran
across a little verse with a sentiment
that struck him just right. Here it is:
"If I can stop one heart from break-
ing,
I shall not live in vain;
If I can ease one life the aching,
Relieve one pain,
Or help one fainting robin,
Into his nest again,
I shall not live in vain."
There are a good many ways of
seeking happiness. An old man with
a split bamboo pole, a piece of twine,
and a bent pin was going through the
motions of fishing over a bed of prim
roses in the city park. Jenks and Hos
mer came sauntering along.

"See the old nut!" said Jenks.
"Thinks he's fishing."
"Bughouse!" echoed Hosmer. "Daf
fy! Poor old guy! Let's take him up to
Bob's place and make him happy for
once. Hello, uncle, come and have a
drink with us."
The old fellow wound up his line
and trundled along meekly to the
nearest bug-juice emporium Each of
his sympathizers paid for a big
schooner of lager, then Hosmer asked:
"How many suckers did pou catch
today, uncle?"
He wiped the froth off his long gray
whiskers, and answered with a twink
le in his eye:
"Seven, countin' yourselves, sir."
The "Equal Rights Association" is
raising a wail because the horrid dry'3
are attacking their attempt to rein
troduce the beer traffic into Oregon.
They are not attempting to increase
beer drinking in Oregon! They only
want to make it easier for the old
soak who keeps his ribs perennially
pickled in alcohol to obtain the where
withal. A recent Oregonian editorial says
that all the beer sold in Oregon since
the state went dry would scarcely
make a bad smell in the bottom of one
of Weinhard's vats. The brewers
must be benevolent cusses if they are
anxious to spend hundreds of dollars
to get the brewery written into the
state constitution of Oregon merely
that they may make it easy for a few
old topers to get their booze.
Investigation showed that all the
beer imported into Oregon during the
first six months of the first dry year
could be made by one brewery in eight
days. Out of the loving kindness of
their hearts they want to spend a lot
of money, and get the brewery busi
ness written into the constitution of
Oregon just to help out a few old
soaks. Of course they are not plan
ning to increase their trade at all!
They are not in the business for mon
ey, but through benevolence!
Besides they tell us that booze is
such a healthful drink. Beer is "li
quid bread." Besides, it contains lec
ithin nerve fat, in other words. You
need it for your nerves! The real
healthy people are the beer-drinkers!
See how fat they are!
A recent Scientific American ar
ticle says: "In appearance the beer
drinker may be the picture of health,
but in reality he is most incapable of
resisting disease. A slight injury, a
severe cold, or a shock to the body or
mind will commonly provoke disease,
ending fatally. Compared with oth
er inebriates, who use other kinds of
alcohol, he is more incurable and more
generally diseased. It is our obser
vation that beer drinking in this coun
try produces the very lowest kind of
inebriety, closely allied to criminal in
sanity. The most dangerous classes
of ruffians in our large cities are beer
drinkers. Intellectually a stupor
amounting almost to paralysis arrests
the reason, changing all the higher
faculties into mere animalism, sensu
al, selfish, sluggish, varied only with
paroxysms of anger, sensual and bru
tal." Dr. Howard A. Kelly of Johns Hop
kins Medical faculty says:
"I consider, with eminent German
authorities of enormous experience,
that beer is exceedingly injurious and
dangerous as a beverage. It has NO
SCIENTIFIC MEDICAL ENDORSE
MENT of which I know."
Life is a fire, consuming the tis
sues of the body to ashes. In the
healthy person these ashes are cast
off through the pores,' or the lungs.
Beer, any scientist will tell you, de
stroys the power of the system to get
rid of its ashes, thus this deposits in
the system. Accordingly the beer
drinker's fat is not fat. It is a com
bination of dirty grease and ashes.
Back on the farm, when Optimist
was a boy, they used to leach off
their ashes by pouring water on it and
letting it seep through. Then the
housewife would take grease and mix
it with the lye, put it into a big kettle,
and boil it down into soft soap.
If a beer-drinker happened to fall

efficiency and courteous treatment
to everyone.

into the soap kettle, no other ingred
ient would be needed. He has both
the rancid grease and the ashes right
there in his own system, without gath
ering up any scraps elsewhere. Yet
they talk of the healthfulness of beer!
Recent magazine advertisements
tell us that Packer's tar soap and bay
rum make the finest shampoo in the
world. The soap and the alcohol to
gether do the business. The soap
made out of the waste grease and
ashes of the "fat" beer drinker would
fill the bill here again because of the
2 to 4 per cent alcohol it contains.
Then that nerve-fat, lecethin! Beer
contains hop-rosin, one of the finest
varnishes extant. This has a special
affinity for the kidneys. And it con
tains some lecethin. Four carloads of
the finest Bavarian beer, Dr. Reinitz
er of Gratz University, the great Ger
man goverment expert on the subject,
says, has the same amount of lecethin
that is found in one good fresh egg.
I'll take mine softboiled, in the Bhell,
rather than preserved in shellac.
Dr. Leibig, the famous German
chemist who prepared that marvel
lous food product, "Leibig's Extract
of Beef," says that there is as much
nutriment in 44 large measures of
beer as there is in the quantity of
flour you can hold on the point of a
penknife You would have to drink
one stein of beer every day for 365
days to get as much nourishment as
there is in a five cent loaf of bread.
A recent German army pamphlet
reads in part: "
"There is no just cause for calling
beer "liquid bread." A glass of heavy
beer costing 25 pfennigs has no more
nourishment than a crumb of cheese
costing one pfennig. Almost all ex
cesses and disturbances in the army
are traced to drink. It is mostly beer
that causes the mischief. Beer is not
the harmless drink it was once sup
posed to be."
If you want an eye like a sucker,
a breath like a hunk of limburger, an
attic full of hasheesh, a kidney like
a varnished door knob, and a culinary
department packed fun of soap-grease
and ashes, then take your nourishment
by the beer route. I'll take mine in
beefsteak and spuds, bread and butter,
thank you.
The plea that we .are protecting
home industries by restoring the brew
ery to Oregon, thus keeping our beer
money at home reminds me of the ex
perience of the young agricultural
college professor. He called at a
farmhouse, and fell over a hog on the
front porch. Two shoats were eat
ing out of a bucket at the side door.
The lawn was full of them, and the
place was redolent with the odor of
hog. The professor said to the farm
er: !
"Don't you think you keep your
hogs too near the house?"
A reminiscent look came into that
worthy's eye.
'Waal," said he, 'Vhen Jim hed
the typhoid and Jennie hed the dyp
thery and we got Dr. Jones out, he
said the same thing. He said hogs
hed no business bein' around the
house, but fer the life of me I don't
see how it's goin' ter hurt them."
.It makes all the difference in the
world whether you look at the ques
tion from the standpoint of the hu
man, or of the hog. The fathers of
the Brewer's amendment are looking
from the standpoint of the unclean an
imal rather than from that of the sob
er citizenship of the state, that is all.
Class legislation is always a crime
against good government. To write
the brewers into the constitution of
the state of Oregon, and to exclude
their brothers, the distillers and vint
ners, is class legislation with a venge
ance. Then why should the brewers
be favored above all the arts and
crafts by being recognized alone, in
the constitution of a great sovereign
state? What has the brewing in
dustry done for humanity more than
the lumber industry, or the sugar re
finery, that it should be written into
the constitution of Oregon? Truly
this is class legislation with a venge
ance, and the Optimist would oppose
this measure, even were it the woollen
industry, or the flour mills that claim
ed such flagrant class privilege. How

until all the pupils return from their
outing' places and from the fields.
Miss Mary S. Jensen, a new teach

have charge of the high school class
es and Miss Elizabeth Wirt, Miss E.

the auspicious start of the year's
work.
