ITTnJHE SCHOOL REPORTS sent into the county suporitmmlmt's of
fice for the month of March show a remarkable contrast between the
' " city and country and draw a truth strongly which is but little rec
ognized. The report shows that the children of the country schools attended
.school more repdarly than the. pupils of the city schools, despite the condi
tion of the country roads and the long distance the country pupil must walk
to school each day. In several of the country districts the per cent of attend
ance stood at 100 and in the majority of districts it was from $2 to l)7 per
cent. In the three city schools, the percentage would average in the neigh
borhood of 94.
In the city the pupils have every advantage to aid attendance. Con
crete or wooden sidewalks lead from the front door of their home to the
school, the buildings are in all case within a few blocks of their home, the
school rooms are lighted and heated in the best possible way, and nil equip
ment is of the latest design. The country pupil h;is no such advantages as
these. In the winter months he must wade through the ooze of the typical
Clackamas count)- road for a distance of several miles from his home to the
school. The school building itself is not heated with any expensive heating
plant but a big old-fashioned wood stove heats the room. Where in the city
school the pupil has every possible convenience, the country pupil is frequent
ly forced to content himself w ith makeshift or do without.
The difference is due to the health of the pupil living in the country and
the pupil living in the city, say school authorities. The country pupil when
he is taking that two-mile walk through the mud of a country road is filling
his lungs with fresh country air; he is strengthening his limbs with, the ex
ercise; he is not petted or his wort is not made easy for him during one min
ute of his school day. The city student is in constant danger of various epi
demics such as la grippe or measles; living in a steam heated room has made
him subject to colds, and too much reading has caused him to be bothered
with eye trouble.
The city student has the average of a better education, of a longer school
term, of better teachers, in many cases, but the country pupil has more ex
ercise, more fresh air and the natural result a stronger body.
J
UST AT THE PRESENT TIME it is the popular thing for the va
rious state commissions to spend their time in a frantic attempt to show
the people that if they were abolished, the state government could not
exist.
One thing is certain and that is that the various commissions are in a
lad public light at the present time. The greater number of candidates for
public offices have seen the trend of the public feeling and have declared for
lower taxes and fewer commissions. Some few candidates have openly come
out on a statement which indorses the abolition of all state boards and com
missions, believing that they complicate the state government and are not
worth their cost.
The commission which seems to the object of the most bitter attack is
the state fish and game commission. This is probably due to the amount
of advertising which has been given by the press of the state regarding the
cost of this one body last year and the general public feeling against the state
game and fish laws. In the official organ of the commission, "The Oregon
Sportsman," which is edited by William Finley, a reply is made to the at
tacks on the state game laws and the commission. The mouthpiece of the
fish and game commission declares that all the money spent by the commis
sion has been raised by the fishing and hunting licenses and therefore does
not result in a higher tax. Their argument is granted but that money is de
rived by the state from the people and is public money and is entitled to the
same care in handling as if derived by direct taxation.
The present time is a period of criticism. The people are huntng a way
to lower taxes, the office seekers are seeking the solution of the problem to
attract the votes of the people, and the natural result is that a cry is raised
over matters which under other conditions would be ignored. The politician
who can write the longest platform, filled with the most glaring statements
and most startling planks, get a good start toward election. For this reason,
much that is good in the state government is being "knocked" and harm is
liable to be done unless the voters exercise the greatest care at election day.
o
OW THAT OVER HALF of the scheduled spelling bees have been
held, the time has come to sum up their cost and the returns received ;
the time has come to see if the spelling bees have proved to be-a suc
cess or a failure. Contests have been held in all parts of the county and un
der almost every condition; the "bees" have been advertised in all parts of the
state, so that their effect, not only on the pupils themselves, but on the par
ents and the public in general may be studied.
That the "bees" are a success, they have passed the highest hopes of
their originators and that they will be made a permanent feature in the school
life is the opinion of thoe who are in charge of the county schools. Super
visors come in from rural districts where "bees" have been held and, with
their enthusiasm at a high pitch, they tell of the ability of the youthful
spellers. Students who before have been backward, have carried their spell
ing book home night after night that they might study it for the coming
"bee." Pupils take hold on this subject, the very one which is the dullest
in all the list of subjects and make it the most interesting. Spelling recita
tions, formerly the most tiresome in the program of the day, now become the
ones which the pupils enjoy the most.
But the interest created in the school room, the many benefits to the pu-
... ... i i .. . .i.. i. i. -i i
pils, are but a part of the piod of the ipeinngi nee, i skiou mc ore or... .
Sf,..,e a. fair rviimnle. the effort on the grown-ups of the community can
e s.-en. For miles the farmer came to hear their children spell, the two
room school house was packed to the iloors with pupils and their parents.
The spelling match itself was preceded by I program rendered by the various
hook This program consisted of music, recitations and spmhrs nn.l those
w ho partook were from each of (he seven school in the selling contest it
self. Such a gathering is valuable to the parent in showing him the true con
dition of the school w hich his child attends. He has a chance to become ac
iiiaintfd with the teacher, to talk with him; he has a chance to see the actual
conditions under which the student in the country school woiks, and to
note the efforts of the course of studv presented. Then there is the purely
ocial side. The opportunity offered to meet a neighbor, to tenrw an old
acquaintance; to talk crops or politics. There is much that is honest and hu
man about such a gathering; there is the sane, level, Ameiican spirit which
enthuses all who attend.
It is an evident fact that a spelling bee is a success, a success as an
educational institution and as a community gathering.

HE CHRISTIAN SCIENCE MONITOR in a recent issue sums
up the road situation in New Yotk state in such a way that any
community can take a valuable lesson from it. The article follows:
"The enduring qualities of the ancient highways are a tribute to the
engineering skill and craftsmanship of the builders. It cannot he said of
them, as it is already being said of the road system on which the Empire
state has expended borrowed millions during the past decade, that In-fore
the roads are paid for they w ill be outworn. Awake to the deploiable con
ditions. Governor Glynn is now calling for construction of a much more dur
able form of rural road than hitherto has Urn built. In short, he prefers
the higher initial cost of a brick or concrete radial highwav through ruial
regions, if thereby the state can secure a roadbed able to stand the tiaffic
of such motors as now go over the through routes, and not demanding that
constant repair entailed by macadam.
"As to the longer life of the brick roadway, suitably laid, there is no
doubt; and when reports on the increasing mileage of concrete roads are in
they are likely to point the same way. The difficulty is to induce taxpayers
to assent to the higher first cost of the enduring, solid roadbed with its min
imum of friction and dust, and its resistance to the elements that break
down ordnary roadways. A direct appeal to voters, with conclusive evi
dence as to the ultimate economies of the seemingly more extravagant course,
is likely to win favor in thoughtful communities. Keener perception of the
folly of the 'pemw wise pound foolish' policy is likely among state legis
lators; and if New York's record of recent highway construction is one
that is mortifying in some of its aspects, the fault is apparently not so much
due to lack of knowledge as of will. With an executive who is alive to the
facts and calling for sounder methods, conditons may change.
"Massachusetts, New Jersey and California have road building rec
ords creditable both on the side of intelligence and conscience. The vision
of planners has been such as to foresee coming traffic demands and partially
if not wholly to meet them, limiting waste whether from graft or from
premature disintegration of surfaces and roadbeds."

OLDIST BANK IN CLACKAMAS COUNTY
LTHOL'GH MANY, keen for war with Mexico, approve Wilson's
action in sending all American ships to the republic to the south,
yet there are still many more who do not approve his action and be
lieve that the American government is playing into the hands of Ilurrta in
assuming the present attitude.
For many long months the people of this country have endured insult
after insult. Benton, a British subject, was killed; Americans were shot,
and property belonging to Americans totaling millions of dollars was eithrr
rendered useless or destroyed by the struggle between the federals and the
lebels. Shots were fired across the border into Texas, Americans in Mexico
were subject to humiliation of every kind, but no notice was taken by the
government. Murder, arson, insult, and all manner of crimes were perpe
trated against Americans or their property but the only action taken by the
government was to send envoys to Mexico who returned, out bluffed by the
brigians and ruffians who call themselves the government.
A small number of American marines walk upon the streets of aMcxi
can town. Officers from the garrison detain them for about an hour. The
Americans are not arrested, they are merely held until their business is
learned and then they are released. For this trivial offence, 16 mighty war
ships are sailing to Mexico, thousands of American troops along the southern
border of this country are preparing for war, and the American people are
worked into a state of frenzy which has not been equaled in recent years
all because a dozen marines were detained for an hour.
The administration can overlook such details as the murder of Ameri
cans, can forget the many insults to the country, the loss of American prop
erty; but let those dreadful, those terrible Mexicans detain a few marines,
not even arrest them, and the president prepares for war.
EW YORK has a law which makes it unlawful -for any person to
have a revolver in his house without an official permit. If any one
is found carrying a gun concealed about his person, without a per
mit, he is guilty of a felony. Yet New York boaits of the choicest lot of
gunmen in the country, if not in the world. All a desperate character has
to do to get a gun is to go across the state line into Connecticut or New
Jersey and buy one.
Chief Magistrate McAdoo of New York now proposes what looks like
a remedy for the gun evil. He urges a federal law regulating the manufac
ture of revolvers. This alone, he says, might lessen the stream of guns
which is now poured into the community by manufacturers and for which
the market is often artificially stimulated.
It will probably be looked upon by many as a drastic measure, but so are
the abuses it is aimed at. The other day a crazy jouth shot two women in
Chicago and then turned the gun on himself. When mental defectives and
irresponsible!, can secure firearms with the vame case with which they can
secure a bag of popcorn it is time for drastic action.
THE A
was of
HE ANNUAL BANQUET of the Oregon City Commercial Club
f much more importance than most realized. About 200 mem
bers were present, the program for the evening was well arranged
and selected, and the banquet itself was of a quality unsurpassed. From all
exterior evidence, the affair was a success from the first course till the
guests left the building at midnight. But the most important result of that
fathering, the most forceful fact left in the mind of an observer was other
than the visible success.
The banquet marked a transition period in the life of the club, a change
from the village commercial club with but little life and little power for
good in the community to the commercial club of the city with larger
aims and more and better results for the town and the county. It was the
formal opening of the new building. Before the commercial club rented
rooms for club purposes and was forced to content itself with things that
every renter must contend. Now the commercial club occupies a build
ing controlled by itself. I
Cut the most important feature of the meeting Friday evening was the
spirit of friendship which was so plainly shown.- The underlying spirit of
cooperation, the united purpose of the members was the most important pos
sible result that the banquet could have. The sight of 200 men, with the
honesty of purpose, the ability, and the straightforwardness that those men
have, was of more importance than any other feature could have been. Two
hundred men, with the one purpose for a greater Clackamas County, exert
a power when united that can hardly be overcome.
