FORUM OF THE PEOPLE
HORROR OF WAR.
MAPLE LANE, Or., Dec. 10. (Edi
tor of the Enterprise) To tne minis
ters of Oregon City. All people are
generally agreed that no matter what
view is taken under usual conditions,
when it comes to the problem of deatn
the church minister is the one per
son whose word receives respectiul
attention. You are all aware tnat on
Friday the drama o death will hava
special settings. No doubt at your
next sermon mat subject will receive
jour attention. It is not necessary
to agree with you on the question oi
right and wrong of the death penalty
as it is the will of the people to pro
ceed. All citizens must in duty abide
in an orderly manner, while agitat
ing tor a rehearing in the event of
opposing capital punishment. Perhaps
tnere is . a difference of opinion
among you as among other citizens
on tuat subject.
I would ask your attention on an
other phase of the subject of killing
human beings. A movement has been
born to protest against war in gener
al and tne present war in Europe in
particular. The International Social
ist Anti-War Congress, attended by
nearly all European Socialist dele
gates, was held at Basle, Switzerland,
and set apart as days of protest, next
Saturday, Sunday and Monday. Will
you lend your help by announcing in
your pulpit the great movement for
world's peace?
The horrors of war with its slaught
er of people, most of whom are in no
way personally interested in the quar
rel of the rulers is no doubt too well
understood by you all to need any dis
cription or further urging on my part.
Yours for Peace on Earth,
JOHN L. STARK.
APPEAL TO WOMEN.
OREGON CITY, Dec. 10. (Editor
of the Enterprise.) The Morning En
terprise is the leading newspaper ot
the city. We women are now legal
voters. These are two separate facts,
jut it seems to the writer of this let
tuat if we can get together, that
is, the women voters and the Enter
prise, we ought to be able to do some
thing which would re-inforce the ef
forts of the good male voters. Person
ally, I believe in the very nature of
things, that the man knows more than
the woman, concerning things of po
litical and municipal affairs; but the
fact remains that there are some
points about our affairs . municipal
that do not ring true, in which case
we women should do something. This
is not a reflection on the active man's
honesty, but rather on the man who
takes no interest in things.
Now why cannot the women voters
of the city get together and form
Municipal Improvement League, which
shall be non-sectarian, non-political,
or rather non-partisan, and which
shall work in full harmony for the
moral, physical, and political better
ment of our dear old city. The church
es are all right in their way but each
churcn is, pulling on its own particu
lar string. Let the women voters, re
gardless of church or society affilia
tions, work together, and we .can ac
complish common sense reforms, free
from fanaticism, bigotry, or vicious
license.
Look how many things are going
wrong that affect in the most vital
degree the homes of this city. For
instance, our dreadful water supply;
the young girls question; police pro
tection; the curfew ordinance; street
car service; street improvements, and
city taxes. Surely here are problems
enough to keep us busy, if only we
can be led by women who have not
churcn or social axes to grind.
We have suci women in this city
of ours, and I am writing this letter
to you in the hope that other women
will take it up. Mind you I am not
opposed to women of the church, for
I am a church woman myself, but I
realize that many able women do not
have any church connection, and I am
anxious to emphasize the fact that
these problems do not belong to the
church alone, but to every woman in
the town, regardless of her church,
or her position in life. Who will take
this matter up?

BRUCE & CALVERT WILL PRESENT THEIR FIRST ACT
AGAIN BY REQUEST
SPANK INDIANS FOR FOOT
BALL MISTAKES.
Coach Warner of Carlisle will
institute a ruling hereafter at the
beginning of a season which he,
says will give the Indians much
fun and beneficial training from
the day's drill. Warner knows
that carelessness was a strong
contributing factor In Pennsyl
vania winning recently, and In
seeking a remedy against mis
takes in signals decided to turn
the punishment for derelictions
in signal work over to the Indian
youths themselves. Any redskin
4 who falls down - on a signal"
through commission or omission
$ is compelled to bend the upper
; part of his body forward and
stand for one severe spankfrom

x rigine chastised. His punishment

possible.
FORWARD PASS STRATEGY.
Cases Which Are Declared Not to Be
In Spirit of Rules.
Veteran followers of football can re
member the time in the old days when
possession' of the ball meant so much
that a fullback could run back fifteen
or twenty yards and keep the ball for
a first down. McBride of Yale once
sprang th'.B strategy on Harvard, thus
taking advantage of the opportunity to
keep the ball in Yale's possession,
which, as the rules then were worded,
could be done. Some criticism .was
made of the play on the ground that it
wasn't sportsmanlike.
Recently there has turned up a play
of a similar nature having to do with
the forward pass. The passer when he
sees he is being crowded or his receiv
ers are covered merely flings the ball
two or three yards in front of him. If
it isn't the fourth. down his side keeps
the ball and puts it in play at the spot
of the preceding down. Whether such
a defensive measure is in keeping with
the spirit of the rules is the point being
raised.
There have been cases, too, of for
ward passers deliberately hurling the
ball out of bounds thirty or forty yards
beyond the scrimmage line. The oval
goes to the opposing side where the
ball crossed the side line, and acts ex
actly as a kick that goes out of bounds.
This also is being objected to as con
trary to the spirit of the rules, but just
wherein it is any more so than kicking
out of bounds, say at an opponent's
five yard line, i not clear. Kicking of
that sort is often good strategy, but
perhaps it is contended that kicking is
a sportier proceeding because the pass
could be done easier and also because
possibly it never was intended that a
forward pass should be so employed. -

A Bay Rum Fountain.
Not even i 'oiogne lias the perfume
that is named for it flowing tree. But
down on the island of St Thomas, in
the West Indies, there is a fountain
that gushes forth the great specialty
ot the place bay rum. The fountain j
is on the balcony of a cafe and would j
attract more attention were not bay
ruin the dominant odor of St. Thomas.
This town is the great rum market of
the world, and everywhere it fairly as
sails the sense of smell. New Vork
