U'REN AND CHAUTAUQUA
W. S. U'Ren, disciple of political
and social unrest, invaded the
grounds of the "Willamette Valley
Chautauqua Assembly at Gladstone
Park Sunday and it appears that he
became peeved because one speaker
was substituted for another andjmade
an unholy show of himself as a con
sequence., Anything that U'Ren may do need
astonish no one. He has been stir
ring up trouble in one way and anoth
er in Oregon for these many years.
He eats up trouble. In a community
where all was peaceable U'Ren would
have no place.
It is indeed a little thing to do for
U'Ren to go to Gladstone Park and
kick up a muss over nothing. The
Chautauqua is an institution for edu
cational uplift. It frys no political
fish. It does not boost U'Ren and his
co-workers on the Joesph Fels pay
roll. It is not trying to saddle an un
fair system of Single Tax on our
State. The Chautauqua is merely at
tempting to give to thousands of peo
ple decent amusement for a fortnight
each year, and it is extremely bad
taste for U'Ren to stand up on his
hind legs and protest because the in
stitution was unable to carry out its
scheduled programme.
Sit down, U'Ren. You are not a
Roosevelt yet!-
The citizens of the West Side from
Bolton to Willamette including both
settlements are talking of forming an
improvement organization to look aft
er their interests. A better move
could not be proposed and it is to be
hoped that the good talk will mater-
ialize into a live, widjjfltciub
KiigwyfWl'rfrIepOTour Live Wires, but
with a twelve month program instead
of nine, for we need something to stir
us all the time if we are to grow with
out interruption.
Another victory for our county
judge. The Southern Pacific Comp
any has agreed to widen the road at"
the railroad crossing between Oregon
City and Parkplace. Judge Beatie
notified the proper officials of the
county's rights and wants and the
people will get what belongs to them
the sooner the better. Judge Beatie
is not slow to act when such a mat
ter is brought to his attention.
Why not? Why shouldn't the city
council take a rest for three summer
months? Friday night last there was
no quorum and considerable comment
resulted. These men give their time
to the city and why not rest during
the summer like the Live Wires? Why
not?

The Cent Is Not Small.
With the exception of the English
penny the cent is the largest minimum
unit of money In the civilized world.
Roughly speaking, our cent is worth 2
kopecks, 3 cents Mexican, Chinese and
East Indian. 2 atts or millieiues. It is
two and a half times larger than the
cent of the Netherlands or the kreutzer.
There are 4 pies, ore or pfennig? to the

Is worth 10 paras Turkish or 10 Japa

ductors of Servla say when tendered a
five cent fare in paras would probably

A Wave of Degeneracy Is
Sweeping Over the
United States
By Dr. T. ALEXANDER. MacNICHOLL of New York
WAVE OF DEGENERACY IS SWEEPING THE LAND, AND
ITS DEVELOPMENT THREATENS THE PHYSICAL VITAL
ITY OF THE NATION.
Within, a period of fifty years the population of the
United States increased 330 per cent, while the number of insane and
feeble minded, increased 950 per cent, according to the recent census,
practically all of which is due to the chronic and EXCESSIVE USE
OF ALCOHOL in one form or another and narcotics.
Degeneracy is shown in the LESSENED FERTILITY OF
THE NATION. In five years the birth rate in the United States
fell off 33 1-3 per cent Back of all the causes for this harming con
dition the study of alcohol and narcotics shows that ALCOHOL IS
THE CHTCf' DEGENERATIVE FACTOR,
A DEGENERACY SO APPALLING IN MAGNITUDE THAT IT STAG
GERS THE MIND AND THREATENS TO DESTROY THIS REPUBLIC,
NUMBERING MORE VICTIMS THAN HAVE BEEN SLAIN IN ALL
THE WARS AND IN ALL THE EPIDEMICS OF ACUTE DISEASES
.THAT HAVE SWEPT THE COUNTRY WITHIN TWO HUNDRED
YEARS.
What is the cause of this degeneracy? A hundred different inter
mediate agencies may contribute to the undoing of the race, but back
of them all stands alcohol.

"I REMEMBER XOTT VERT WELL, MR. BON
NYCASTLE.1 with a couple of strings of imitation
pearls, was especially charming. The
natural expression of her lips was a
smile, and it setfmed that any change
In them was from the usual to the un
usual. Her neck and shoulders were
curves of beauty.
The first thing for an artist to do to
bring out his genius Is to fall in love.
At least that's the way Daute and Pe
trarch and a lot of others did. Bonny
castle proceeded in his own mind to
give Evelyn a character suitable to her
physical makeup. For this he had the
ground all prepared for him that is,
there were no traits for him to tear
away, because there were no traits at
all. JEvelyn may be best described as
a composite girl. If a man is going to
idealize a woman or a woman Is going
to idealize a man it Is far better that
this should be so, just as it is easier to
draw a picture from the beginning
than to alter one already made.
Bonnycastle confided his love to his
friend Thriftleigh, waxing eloquent on
the girl's physical and moral beauties.
One reason for the friendship between
the men was that Thriftleigh never op
posed his friend's vagaries except when
harm might come of them. He could
see no more harm in Bonnycastle's cre
ating an angel out of Miss Forbes than
a sculptor doing the same thing out of
:lay. So he listened to Bonnycastle's
description of what he conceived the
girl to be with apparent profound In
terest This suited Bonnycastle exact
ly. He neither wished his friend to
agree or disagree with him.
Bonnycastle's next step was to write
love letters to Evelyn. A critic would
have pronounced them literary master
pieces. There was feeling 'in them,
brought out by genius. What that gen
ius is no one has yet been able to de
fine, though many have tried. In this
case it was the difference between
maudlin and that which appeals direct
ly to the heart. The 'literary Instinct
was so strong In Bonnycastle that It Is
quite probable the chief interest he
took in these letters was very much
like -what he would feel at portraying
love scenes In a novel. But this be did
not suspect He regarded them as gen
uine expressions of his worship of bis
angel.

ACH year sees new developments In the nrtiatuirition of the boy

England, where the movement was origimitecl mii.I where it has a
more marked military aspect than here, wireless teleiir.ip'i.. mid signal corps
have been formed among youngsters who. if conditions ot a tew years go
prevailed, would probably be members of juvenile uiints or a more or lfss
mischievous character. As yet only one troop has a wireless installation; it
Is the Second Eltham association, which owes its equipment to the generos
ity of Sir .Harry North. The boys meet twice a week for instruction and
practice, have built their own "aerials" and can erect their installation any
where. They also have a heliograph section the meoiliers of which art

CHUeB of education and practice or
else he had not that subtle something
which evolves the artist in paint or
clay. He wrote a story and sold it
without much trouble. Then be tried
a novel.
And here his adoration for Evelyn
Fortes "came in handy. He made her
the heroine of his novels and himself
the hero. The consequence was that
when the hero talked to the heroine the
words were impressive. The audience
that reads novels is more easily touch
ed through the imagination than real
ity. Though Evelyn bad not appre
ciated Bonnycastle's love letters, she
would doubtless have done so bad she
read them as the enunciations of an
Imaginary man to an imaginary wo
man. When Bonnycastle finished his novel
he was more in love with his heroine
than ever and more In love with his
novel for a brief season than with
the real Evelyn. This Is not surpris
ing. He was not in love with the flesh
and blood except as a thing of beauty,
put with the product of his imagina
tion. Therefore It was natural that
after the full development of his imag
inary heroine, whom he was many
months In building, he should be more
InJovawith her than with the original.
But the original had the great advan
tage, while the Imaginary development
would begin to fade from the author
as soon as finished. Evelyn, with her
golden hair, smiling lips and round
neck and shoulders, remained the same.
Bonnycastle's novel was a work of
genius. At any rate, there was enough
feeling In it for half a dozen novels.
He asked Thriftleigh to read the manu
script He did so. pronounced it "very
fine," but predicted that Bonnycastle
would not find a publisher for It
For the first time In his life the latter
doubted his chum's opinion on a prac
tical matter. He sent the work to pub
lishers, who kept It each an average of
two months, and at the end of a year
It had been declined by six publishers.
Then the author gave up trying to se
cure its publication and asked bis
friend the old question, "Blow did you
know that?" Thriftleigh didn't try to
explain how he knew it.
Thriftleigh about that time took a
position in a publishing house, not on
account of his critical or literary at
tainments. for be had no such attain
ments, but because be was willing to
work for so much a week. Bonny
castle at once jumped to the conclu
sion that his friend had Influence with
the concern to get his novel published.
Thriftleigh handed it in. No word
came from it for four months, when
Bonnycastle called on his friend to get
a decision. It was then discovered that
the manuscript had been mislaid. In
other words, it had been lost
Bonnycastle by this time bad secured
a position as reporter on a newspaper
and drifted away from his friend
Thriftleigh 'and his love Evelyn. It
was twelve years before he saw either
of them again He found making a
living very difficult indeed, it was
all he could do to keep body and soul
together. He was the most pitiable
creature on the face of the earth an
unrecognized genius.
Owing largely to his sensitiveness
he ceased to communicate with his
friend Thriftleigh. and. as for Evelyn,
since he couldn't marry her. be accept
ed the inevitable and forgo! her. There
was nothing to forget except her beau
ty and the soul he had created to fit
her hody. He did not-see the former,
and the latter must necessarily fade
away In time.
One day Bonnycastle. who at this
time did odd jobs about a newspaper
office, was sitting before a pile of new
books he was reviewing. The man
aging editor tossed a novel at him. say
ing: r'There's a story that's been on the
market some rime Recently It has
been pronounced a work of genius by
Howard Pugsley. the great literary crit
ic, and it's beginning fo be talked
about. Write it up on those lines."
Bonnycastle took it up and looked
at the title page, then began to read it.
The first few paragraphs seemed fa
miliar, and before he had read three
pages he recognized It as the novel he
had written more than a. dozeiusears
