SOCIAL The exhibit of the Oregon HYGIENE Social Hygiene society, opened in this city, has already been viewed by many citizens. Some of them have been profoundly impressed with the exhibit itself, others have been more impressed with the appar ent effort of the originators of the exhibit. The way people have been influenced by the display has depend ed largely upon their familiarity with the problem of the "red plague. To those who. are familiar with the -tremendous danger and ravages- of so cial uncleanliness, the exhibit cannot seem otherwise than puerile and in effective. But to those who have giv en no thought at all to the subject, and who are at first confronted with the problem in all its magnitude, the thing must seem very different. Primarily the exhibit is designed for the thoughtless, the indulgent or the careless citizen. Probably it will give to him some conception of the evils that lurk on all sides; evils which the viewer has not sensed at all. In this way the exhibit may cause an awakening and a realization of the necessity for action. Probably, after all, the significant thing about it is that it. will arouse an interest in the subject of social hygiene among people of all sorts and conditions; and those that are sufficiently inter ested will seek further- light, and so will become workers in the cause of decency. If the exhibit does this, it matters not how it impresses the folk who are more familiar with the problem. They will do their wor!t in the battle against a danger that is undermining the nation, just as Rome was under minded, and the civilization of the ancients lost to a world that had to go back almost to barbarism and start over again. II the exhibit will awak en some spark of a feeling of resonsi bility in even half of the people who see it, it will have achieved its pur pose, and will prove an impetus to betterment in this particular section. And that is the main thing to be ac complished for if public interest is once aroused, progress will result. However, it seems a pity that the exhibit is not more striking, and that it does not drive home its lesson witli mora force. It savors too much of Life Is a Comprehensive Business By ERNEST FOX NICHOLS, President of Dartmouth College A MAN'S FAMILY AND FRIENDS ARE HIS STOCKHOLDERS WHO HOLD LARGE HUMAN INVESTMENTS OF SYMPATHY AND HOPE IN HIS CAREER. THEIRS WOULD BE HAPPINESS OR SOR ROW AS HE SUCCEEDED OR FAILED. THE DIRECTORS OF HIS LIFE SHOULD BE CHARACTER, INTEGRITY AND CONSCIENCE. t Life is A COMPREHENSIVE BUSINESS, a business in which large provision must be made for many activities and for ample breath ing spaces. Business so called, business 4n the narrower sense of production and trade, is but a small part of the great BUSINESS OF LIVING, living a. whole, well rounded life. He who thinks otherwise has only mistaken the means for the end; mistaken a part for the whole, a not uncommon error. The great end of living is to BECOME A STRONG, A SYM METRICAL, A WELL BALANCED man or woman, with no empty ' nor neglected rooms in the great house in which his Creator has given man to dwell. y v . -J - ENP Post cae c? to xHeMp-.J I HOT HOME? NO! A COOL HOME at a bargain. There is always a breeze at this place which overlooks the Willamette and Clackamas rivers. One of the best views in the city. 5-room plastered house with concrete basement; barn 18x24, chicken house, 3 lots each 55x100; fine garden with vegetables ready to eat; fruit trees; city and well water. One of the best views from this property. If you want a home look at this place. $1350.00; part cash, bal ance on time. Dillman & Howland Weinhard Building the same false niodosty which has been the chiefest foe of progress in social hygiene all along, it seems to merely hint at the real dangers and the terrible results of unthinking ex cesses. The subject is a big one, it is a subject that should be impressed upon everyone; and it would seem that more could be accomplished if a spade was called a spade, and if less effort were expended in polite guff of the variety that Mr. Bok feeds to the readers of his peculiar publications. The cause, and the scake at issue, is too big to be dealt with in a molly coddle sort of way. GLADSTONE YET AGAIN It was Robert Bruce, who while starring in the title role of "The Chilon," remarked "if Prisoner of at first you don't succeed, try, try again." Rob ert was addressing a spider when he gave vent to these inspiring lines or rather the bard who wrote of him said that he was meditating upon the efforts of a spider. B-a that as it may, the lines are good, and if the idea is followed out, victory will usually result. This by way of foreward to com ment upon the neighboring city of Gladstone, which has just secured a victory over the local power and light octopus. The word "octopus" is used here in no disrespectful way, but merely to indicate the tremendous power of the concern in question. For two years Gladstone has been trying to get this company to accept a fran chise that would be fair and equitable. During the struggle no less than eight franchises have been discussed and considered ,and finally the eighth one has been accepted. This is some record. For a muni cipality to fight a public untilty., cor portion like this is somewhat un usual. Gladstone has won out, not because its figt has been bitter, but because its city dads have persevered and have reasoned logically enough that if they only stood pat long en ough, they would get what they want ed. So Gladstone stood pat. It po litely persisted in asking for what it wanted, and it finally got it. Glad stone has obtained many boons not enjoyed by neighboring cities, and it has shown conclusively that the way to get a thing is to keep on insisting upon it Gladstone is to be congratu lated. She may be yet young in her growth and not as large as some other communities but she has fought a good fight .fought ;t well and diplo matically, and has achieved her ends in such a way that even" the power company seems to yield with good grace. Gladstone has not been un- reasonable, she has asked for what is fair and just, and by keeping ever lastingly at. it, and refusing to be sidetracked, she has achieved what she wanted. Once again Gladstone has proved to be a remarkable town, worthy of com ment, commendation and exemplary praise. OREGON CITY, OREGON, FRIDAY, JULY KILLED BY AUTO Thursday moring there were two dogs in Oregon City whose owners had obeyed the request of the city dads ,and these two dogs were muz zled. One of these dogs belonged to County Veterinarian W. S. Eddy, and the other belonged to A. J. Bell, form erly proprietor of the Bell theatre. Thursday night Dr. Eddy's dog held the distinction all alone, for Mr. Bell's pup had been sacrificed to the new six-cylinder benzine buggy recently acquired by Al Price. Mr. Price was coming down Main street in the afternoon "not more than eight miles an hour," he says and the muzzled canine got in his way. MJr. Price was unable to avoid trouble, and the canine curled up and quit under the big car. Mr. Price says it was all the dog's fault, and people who saw the accident bear him out in this statement. The dog was a Spitz, and was much thought of by Mr. Bell, who has had it for some time as a pet. BIRDS SEEK COURT, PERHAPS TO MARRY Justice John Sievers Drobably holds the marriage record - for Clackamas county, his office opposite the court house being the Mecca for loving twains that would fain be made one. But that his fame had spread even to the birds of the air was not dreamed of until Thursday when two twitter ing sparrows flew in the open win dow and fluttered excitedly about the court room. The justice showed that his dignity was somewhat ruffled, until somebody suggested that the birdies probably wanted to be legally wed. Before his honor could bring this about , how ever,, Constable Jack Frost chased them out, mounting the window sill in his efforts to drive them through the transom. "It may be all right," said Jack Frost, "but the groom didn't look to me as if he had any cash in his clothes, and I don't .think anybody ought to be married here who can't slip his honor something for it." JACK FROST TO BE CENSOR OE DANCES Jack Frost the jovial constable of Justice Sievers' court and, Harry Ed wards have leased Busch's hall for a" year, beginning the first of next month, and will conduct two dances a month throughout the time of their control of the structure. Six days of the year have also been reserved for special dances, but at other times the hall may be chartered for social or business gatherings frfom the new lessees. Messrs. Frost and Edwards will add to the decorations of the hall, and wi'l extend the conservatory, so that it will be one of the most attractive gathering places of the city. Every equipment will be installed that will add to the comfort and convenience of guests, and the new managers expect to make a success of their venture. All dances held in the hall will be under direct supervision of the new proprietors, and "ragging" will be strictly taboo. Jack Frost says he as not yet decided as to whether "tur key trotting" will be permitted; but ha thinks that "nerhaDs it mav he in- ! dulged in when legitimate clubs lease the hall. CAPTIVES IN RAID FREED; REARRESTED Following their arrest in a raid at Milwaukie, engineered by Tom Kay, of Governor West's special staff, Ad rean LeBeau, L. Lane. Julian Pelsma- has and G. Massit, alias "Andre Ga- bot, were arraigned in Justice Siev ers' court Thursday, and soon after the hearing opened were all dismissed from custody upon application of Dep uty Attorney Livy Stipp. who called to the court's attention the fact that the alleged crimes wih which the men are charged were committed in Mul tnomah county, if committed at all, and that therefor the local -Court had no jurisdiction. Justice Sievers agreed that the point was well taken, and at once dismissed the prisoners, wno had been out on bail. As the four Frenchmen left the courtroom, with their attorneys, one of whom incidentally was a negro. Tom Kay and his deputies re-arrested the quartest, took them to a waiting automobile, and bundled the entire group off to Portland. The four men are charged with vagrancy, and it is alleged that they are parasites, living upon the earnings of fallen women who operate In Portland. - - la Portland the prisoners were lock ed up in. the county jail under $500 nan eacn. . Teach People That the Aeroplane Is Safe ONE DUTY OF PARAMOUNT AVIATION DUTY, AND IT SHOULD BE MADE TO IMPRESS FACT THAT FLYING WHEN THE CHINE WELL BUILT AND THE PILOT EXPERIENCED HAS BECOME A SAFE AND DELIGHTFUL PASTIME. e There is without doubt a mountain of sheer prejudice which needs still to be moved, itnd that such an obstacle exists is not the fault of the mass of the people. Concerning the real risks of aviation, they have been persistently misinformed. An aeroplane accident represents A NEW WAY BY WHICH A MAN MAY KILL HIMSELF, and novelties in the way of death have become infrequent; hence it is inevitable that reports of such disasters should figure prominently in the daily press. Aeroplanes today are scientifically constructed, air worthy craft, and the men who handle them have SKILL AND KNOWLEDGE at their command, but the delusion which is so prevalent as to the inherent dan ger of navigating the air is the stumbling block to all development save that of the employment of machines as engines of war. We who fly should strive above all things to GIVE THE PUBLIC CONFIDENCE. The possibilities and pleasures of aerial touring must for one thing be definitely demonstrated. With latest type machines which have covered in bodies, wind screens and cushioned seats, air travel is being made PEKFECTLY COMFOETABLE. What needs to be done is to reveal in a way all people can understand" the novelty and charm of, say, the WEEK END TRIP BY AEROPLANE.

Rep resentatives of the liability insurance companies met in concerence here to day with the Wisconsin Industdial commission to discuss the working of the employers' liability and working men's compensation law. The men who underwrite the industrial hazards believe there is some room for im provement in the statute.

EGGS CONTINUING SCARCE LOCALLY Persistence of poultrymen in sell ing eggs direct to consumers is keep ing the retail trade pretty well de moralized, and while this particular product is quoted at 30 cents selling and 28 cents buying, there are many local stores where no eggs are to be had. Portland is also reporting diffi culty with its egg market, and practi cally nothing but case eggs are being offered. . 4 Local peaches, together with fruit from other parts of Oregon, still continues to glut the market, owing to their poor condition. Buyers who were at first tempted by the state fruit, and who found it rotting on their hands, are now refusing to touch the supply, and as a result the market is running all the way from $1.20 down to two-bit3 a box. In sharp contract to Oregon peaches are the Yakima apricots being offer ed, which are selling readily at a dol lar a crate, and which keep well and have a fine flavor. "Peach plums" from California and Washington are also showing well in the trade. v Butter beans have added their tasti ness to the green vegetable offerings, and ara selling at two pounds for 15 cents. They are perhaps the best of the present greenstutfs, not having been effected by sunburn, . as have green peas and string beans. Livestock,' Meats.
