U'REft vs. HIGHER EDUCATION
Why does W. S. U'Ren oppose high
er education by fighting the measures
designed to upbuild and maintain our
university and colleges. The two col
leges of Oregon, the Oregon Agricult
ural College, first because of its indi
rect value to everyone and the Univer
sity of Oregon are distinct and dif
ferent in every respect. There may
be one or two departments where the
same studies are taught at both col
leges but these departments are full
and a combination would not reduce
the expense.
Oregon Agricultural College at Cor
vallis is world widely known; its re
sults are the talk of the agricultural
world. Why should we spoil this
wonderful record? There are no reas
onable reasons given for objecting; a
talk with those who know will con
vince anyone that the plan as design
ed is the correct one. Oregon Univer
sity speaks for itself. Both are need-

tIKE FRANCE ON THE EVE OF ITS GREAT REVOLUTION
THAT IS THE WAY I SEEM TO FEEL WE ARE NOW UN
y LESS SOME GREAT LEADER, SOME POWERFUL MIND,
CAN SAVE US FROM WHAT SEEMS THE ALMOST IN
EVITABLE. When I say that we are in the most critical period of our exist
ence as a nation I do not say it as a-Socialist, as a radical or as a sen
sationalist, for I am none of those things, but somehow I feel that I
have a peculiarly clear outlook upon what is going on around me, and
my opinion is that there is GEAVE, AWFUL DANGER AHEAD
for our country.
I am not one of those who believe that there is only one class of
people. There must always be several classes.
There are classes in America. The salvation of the country lies
in the fact that we have a great middle class the sane, sensible, un
prejudiced middle class who can solve our problems for us if they
will. They are the ones perhaps not contented with conditions, for
NO CONTENTED PEOPLE EVER PROGRESS who believe
it is better to have a poor ideal than destroy all ideals.
The trouble is that a3 a whole our country is almost without stand
ards and ideals, and our TRADITIONS ARE FAST GOING
FROM US.

Education is a necessity not a lux
ury, and Oregon should not take a
back seat, rather it should continue
to lead.
Still this objection of U'Ren's, is in
keeping with his erratic policy, if we
can say he has a policy.
THE ELEVATOR QUESTION
What will an election cost to decide
the elevator question, voting bonds
for the contract price, and mainten
ance thereof. This hot weather it is
almost barbarous to ask mother to
carry their babies up long flights of
stairs, when in a jiffy an elevator
would do the work without an effort.
The hill people want an elevator.
The down town people want the up
town people to have an elevator. Why
not wake up and have an elevator
election?
Portland, the safe and sane automo
bile city of the northwest has a new
stunt. Instead of speeding machines
flying to and fro, the city resembles
the race between the tortoise and the
hare, the hare having passed long ago
and the tortoise is now having its in
ning, but, not unlike either, the slow
running machines get there, and in
the end the owners and passengers
will be better off.
If the police do not fall off in their
vigilance very few auto accidents will
occur within Portland's limits.
There are two or three very bad
places on the West Side county road
between Bolton and Oswego, two in
particular, wooden culverts, being in
very dangerous condition; otherwise
the West Side road is in better condi
tion than for many years, and with a
little more care will soon be better
than the road through the east side
of Gladstone on the east side of the
Willamette.

A Well Known City of London
Charity Honored by the King

Photo copyright, 1912, By American
XE of the best known charitable organizations in London is the SL
John's ambulance brigade, maintained by the leading bankers and"
merchants of the city of London proper, the most ancient part of the
metropolis. Among Its supporters are such well known financiers as
the Rothschilds, Lord Avebury and Lord Revelstoke. Its members, who are
pledged to attend accident cases, are volunteers, many of tbem young women
of well known London families, who find in this work an outlet for their im
pulses to personal social service. The organization is under royal patronage,
and not long since at Windsor the king inspected the brigade and compli
mented the members upon their good work. The photograph shows him in
conversation with Lady Wilbraham, superintendent in chief of the brigade,
with the members in their nurses' costumes grouped in the background.
Painting
The Good
By MARTIN L. WOODRUFF
I had been painting pictures for sev
eral years without making any espe
cial success. At any rate, I had not
gained recognition. There came a
friend a woman who said:
"Concentrate your mind on one sub
ject. Portray, or, rather, idealize, the
good."
"In man or woman?"
"Either. You will find it more diffi
cult to place the good as embodied in
man on canvas, but for that reason if
you succeed you will gain the greater
success. I have seldom, if ever, seen a
satisfactory painting of Jesus, but I
have seen many successful Madonnas."
"Why is that?"
"I cannot tell, unless it is that good
ness is akin to gentleness, and gentle
ness is more becoming in a woman
than a man."
"But I must have a model, and
where shall I find one?"
She thought for some time before re
plying, "I will send you one, or will
send you a number from whom you
may choose."
"Will you tell them for what they
are to pose?"
"No. That would spoil them for your
purpose." ,
The first model sent me was a come
ly girl with an honest face and eye. 1
sketched her, and while I sketched 1
chatted with her. Fancying that love
was allied with the good, in woman, I
asked her if she had a sweetheart.
She said she loved a man and he had
loved her, but a rival had taken him
away from her. Straightway her face
took on an expression of hatred. I ex
cused her without requesting another
Bitting.
The next person who was to pose to
me for the good was a woman who
was devoting herself to charity. I
talked with her concerning her work,
and she became very much interested
In telling me about it. But I saw that
it was the love of work that spurred
her on rather than a naturally sympa
thetic nature. This I did not deprecate,
for it is the proper application of char
ity that is most effective, and too ten-

press Association.
I der a nature often stands in the way
! of such application. At any rate, the
girl did not satisfy me as a model for
the good, and I sent her away.
My friend nextjsent me a young wo
man who had a fine social position,
whom everybody loved because they
said she was so good. When I asked
how she was good, they said she was
good in every way. Especially she
was amiable. She never said a harsh
word of or to any one. This was not
from policy, but from the innate good
ness of her disposition. Her, too, 1
talked with while sketching her and
discovered that what these people took
for goodness was a rare tact
I reported my reasons to my friend
for objecting to the models he had
sent me, and by this time she be
came a bit impatient with me.
"What do you call goodness?" she
asked me.
"That is beyond my ability to de
fine," I replied, "but I shall know it
when I see it."
My fourth model was a religious
devotee. To look at her one would
know that she lived only to do the
Lord's bidding. In her surely I had
found my model. Indeed, her absorp
tion in living a good life had become
stamped on her face. I not only
sketched her, but put her face on my
canvas in paint But I was not satis
fied with it It seemed to express
what has usually been expressed In
the pictures of saints, which is neither
more nor less than piety. I was look
ing for something beyond this, some
thing that might belong to one who
had never heard of God or Saviour.
I bowed the lady out of my studio,
and after she had gone poked a knife
through her portrait
Then came a young lady who pleas
ed me immensely. She was pretty:
she was sprightly: she was frank, hon
est refined. My friend who sent her
wrote me about her, saying: "You will
find in her the model you need. But
don't decide to the contrary before
giving her a fair trial." .
I was not likely to do that. I was
counting on the delightful companion
ship I would have with her and re
solved whether or no she suited my
purpose to prolong the sittings as far
as possible. I found tlyit we had a
similarity or dissimilarity of disposi
tion, 1 couldn't tell whichbut it was
very pleasing. During her first sitting
I sketched her; at the second t began

To .SECOtSD'.
WHY APPLES DON'T
KEEP
Did you ever notice any dead limbs
or branches in your apple, pear, cher
ry and in fact, almost all fruit trees?
In most cases it is what is known as
the Anthracnose. It is as harmful as
smut in the grain, often destroying a
large per cent of the crop. Anthrac
nose spores are liberated by the
breeze or birds and come in contact
with the fruit oh the trees, or other
branches, and the work of destruction
goes on. Anthracnose is the most des
tructive agency known to horticulture.
However it must be understood that
Anthracnose is not only an Oregon
evil, but is found in all parts of. the
fruit growing states in the Union. In
most places it does more harm .than
in Oregon, however, there is a way
to keep them clean. It is worth while
to take notice, see that the fruit trees
are free from dead limbs, to remove
them, burn them at once. I have stat
ed that Anthracnose shatters out very
much the same as any seed when it
matures, the seed spores fall on the
limbs or fruit. When the fall rains
come the seed spores germinate, the
roots of this fungus penetrate the bark
and so far as the tiny roots extend
up and down or around the branch,
the bark will die, and the seed spores
so productive are ready for more des
truction. Now; the Anthracnose seed spores,
falling on the apples, that you pick
from the effected thees.'are placed in
the apple house, and in a short time
the apples goes into a swet. The An
thracnose seed spores germinate and
in a short time the apples begin to
show decay. Some are very bitter
to the taste, others will decay faster
and bitter spots are not noticed. Now
mind you, I do not wish to frighten
any, or discourage applegrowing.'
On the other hand, it is only the
lack of practice application of repel
lants. To destroy the unnecessary
evils. About the first of September
the trees should be sprayed with' a
Bordeaux mixture, three pounds cop
per sulphides, (Blue stone) six pounds
unslackened lime to 50 gallons of wa
ter, spray the trees thoroughly. Re
peat this application when the trees
are dorment. In a winter solution
using six pounds copper sulpride, six
pounds of lime to 50 gallons of water,
strain the solution to remove the
coarse solids. Then in March use
lime and sulphur, one to 8 or 9, give
the trees a good soaking and you will
have good apples as far as fungus is
concerned. Another good plan is to
Wipe the apples before putting them
away, with a moistened cloth contain
ing a Bordeaux solution of the first
mentioned proportions. If every one
owning fruit trees will consider that
it is for her or his benefit to look
after the trees and not consider the
fact that there is a law compelling
you to spray, more good could be done.
There are people that wish to test
the rights of anyone telling the other
what he must or must not do, but
when a man maintains a nuisance the
law must be applied and the trees
must be cleaned up. ,
Let us take pride in our trees, treat
them as we would anything else, from
which we expect some benefit, then
you will find that it pays to do things
correct.
SCHOOLS AND CHURCHES
There are in Clackamas County, all
told, 135 schools, of which 18 are
above the 8th grade, to and including
the 12th grade. Under the able man
agement of Superintendent T. J. Gary
many interesting features have been
added. hTe District School Fair is
a popular idea, the result is good work
being done both in school and agri
culture. The many pretty churches here and
there along the Public Highways, show
an unmistakable evidence of Peace and
Good Will, which reaches out in an
unassuming way to those in less for
tunate countries. -
Why not locate where conditions are
nearly correct?

REAL ELIXIR OF LIFE.
Contentment is the real elixir of
life. It is the real fountain from
which flow the waters o( wren
nial youth. Sometimes it costt
effort, a tremendous effort, to say
it is all right when our sky is
clouded, but the man or woman
who can say it is much better off
for thus looking at the sunny side
of the world than the person who
harbors a grievance . against all
mankind and waiks through the
world burdened with the somber
thoughts of his disappointments.
The Judge and the "Barmaid's Blush."
Judicial ignorance is generally as
sumed, but there are occasions when
a Judge is honestly lacking in knowl
edge. The other day a witness in an
Australian court casually mentioned
that a certain thing occurred just aft
er he had a "barmaid's blush," Judge
and counsel were for the moment
"stuck up" by this hitherto unheard of
phrase, but the 'fact was gradually
elicited that it meant a drink compound
ed of beer and raspberry vinegar. Lon
