VIOLATING Three local ministers
THE SABBATH have called upon
the sheriff and asked him to prevent
the performance of a circus in the
immediate neighborhood of this city
in the near future, the exhibition be
ing" billed to occur upon a Sunday af
ternoon and evening. The ministers
point out that the coming perform
ance is what they believe to be a vio
lation of the state law, and they think
that the county peace officer ought
not to permit it.
Whether or not the performance of
a circus on Sunday is a violation of
the law is a matter that will be de
cided by the deputy district attornsy
' for this district. There is another
side to the question, however, which
perhaps may merit some comment.
' Aside from the legal technicalities in
volved in the case, tile question arises
as to whether or not the circus is an
ethical wrong, and whether its influ
ence upon the community will be
harmful.
During the summer months it is not
customary, in many of the churches,
to hold services except in the morn
ing on the Sabbath day. This being
the case, it does not appear that any
other popular attraction on Sunday
afternoon will interfere with church
life. Aside from its religious import,
Sunday is generally observed a3 a
day of rest and recreation; and at
tending a circus is a form of recrea
tion that is quite generally enjoyed,
from the small boy who delights to
feed .peanuts to the elephant, to the
older person who likes to see the
youngsters enjoy themselves, and
who incidentally likes to go to the
Incentive to Gamble Furnished by
Stock Exchange Is Its Greatest Evil
By WILLARD V. KING, President of the Columbia-Knickerbocker Trust
Company, New York
""THE greatest evil of all which the Stock Exchange furnishes is the
. 1 INCENTIVE TO GAMBLING. It looks so easy to put up a hun
dred dollars and to stand a chance of winning several times that
amount that great numbers of people are led into this form of gambling
who CANNOT AFFORD TO TAKE THE HAZARD. For of course
the odds are against the gambler, because he must pay commissions and
taxes out of his profits in addition to his losses.
There is no doubt that many men have permitted their attention to
he distracted from their proper business because of a "flier on the ex
change," and many others have FALLEN INTO CRIME ON AC
COUNT OF VENTURES WHICH RESULTED IN LOSSES
WHICH THEIR OWN PURSES COULD NOT MEET.
Countless ways have heen proposed for checking this evil, but with
out success, and it looks as if it were a NECESSARY INCIDENT OF
. THIS BUSINESS. Of course it largely depends on the attitude of the
stockbroker. If he is intent only on making commissions he will encour
age every one to speculate. Even with the highest ideals a broker cannot
be sure whether a customer can afford the chance of loss.
OBVIOUSLY ONLY THOSE SHOULD SPECULATE WHO CAN AF
FORD TO PAY THEIR LOSSES WITHOUT DISTRESS. THIS COMES
TO SAYING THAT THE SPECULATOR SHOULD BE ABLE TO PAY
IN FULL FOR HIS PURCHASES AND NOT CARRY THEM ON MAR
GIN. IF HE CAN DO THIS HE CAN BE INDIFFERENT TO THE
FLUCTUATIONS OF THE MARKET, BECAUSE THEN NO ONE CAN
COMPEL HIM TO SELL AT A LOSS.
;: - tt "v.J; -"''V: I .
.The exchange is A LOSING VENTURE to a large majority of the
, people who indulge in it and is almost certain disaster to those who spec-
uriewith inadequate capital. -

circus likewise, but who hates to ad
mit it.
It would sesm that the efforts of
the good men who object to the cir
cus are rather narrowly drawn, and
that some ethical hairs must have
been split by their reasoning. To
most people there is less harm in go- J
ing to the circus than there is in
many other things that are commonly
done upon " the Sabbath, ' both by
church-goers and by those who do not
attend divine worship. The enjoy
ment one obtains from witnessing a
circus or a "Wild West" performance,
for instance, is a good deal less
frought with danger than is that pe
culiar form of enjoyment to be found
in cheap dances which are often held
upon Sunday; and going to a circus
is 'surely better than going "fising"
on the river accompanied by numer
ous bottles and flasks.
The days of Puritanical Sabbaths
have passed, largely because the rest
of the week, in thesj days of grace,
is taken up by much more tiring and
exhausting work than was done in
former days. Throughout six days
of each week, nowadays, most of us
are engaged in earning our bread and
butter, and the pressure of the times
has become so great that the effort
expended in this necessary task is
sufficiently exhausting to make us
want to forget the wordaday world
entirely on Sunday, and either rest at
home or go away Out into the fields,
there to get at first hand a demon
stration of the wonderful works of
Nature, and of the far-reacing pur
pose of the Almignty. The average
man can get quite as much uplift for
his soul from actual communion with
Mother Earth, in some of her varied
forms, on the Sabbath, as he can
from listening to the average dis
course from thg average pulpit. This
being true,, it is a considerable trib
ute to the church and its power, and
the devotion of people in general to
it, that as many attend divine wor
ship as do.
Under the gracious and wise laws
of this state theatres are permitted to
operate upon Sunday, and to furnish
entertainment to the people. Yet
what is ottered on many a stage is
far less uplifting than what is offered
at the circus. In fact the modern cir
cus may be said to be pure fun and
enjoyment, and stripped jjf its
"Oriental dances" and its "three-card

I monte man," it has nothing in its
make-up to offend even the most
strict of humans.
Attendance by the public at a cir
cus on Sunday may draw somewhat
from some church services, but in
this warm weather and summertime,
it will, not draw a very appreciable
amount. And aside from this, efforts
of any church to dictate to the people
in general what they shall do, and
what they shall, not do,' upon the one
day of rest that is granted out of the
seven, will not tend to make friends
for that particular church. This is
an age of broadmindedness and of
compromise; an age in which people
are guided largely by their own con
sciences. Efforts of aiy men or group
of men to suggest that the public
conscience is Jax, or that it is in
capable of dealing with public prob
lems, is not apt to work for the ulti
mate advancement In popularity of
these men. Ministers of the' church
today are complaining generally of
the falling off of interest in church
matters, and while they doubtless
have grounds for their complaint; the
reason for the fault lies not with the
people, but with the churches them
selves", for they do not offer to the
public at large that which the public
wants. Fighting popular amusement
will not profit any organization, secu
lar or otherwise.
DON'T FORGET Monday, Tuesday,
DO IT NOW Wednesday, Thurs
day and Friday of this week are the
few days that remain in which voters
may register for the recall election.
Grave charges have been preferred
against the county court. Thess
charges have been answered by the
officials of the county, through the
press and by personal statements.
The people have heard both sides of
the case, and whatever may be their
opinion of the matter, they should go
to the polls and voce on August 16
as their consciences may dictate in
the matter.
Citizens who have this sacred duty
to parform cannot do it unless they
are registered. It therefor behooves
every true citizen to see to it that
his name is entered upon the rol'.s,
else he cannot do his duty and vote
at the coming election. The citizen
who is satisfied that the county court
has conducted its business in an hon
orable way, and for the best inter
ests of the county, and who desires to
Keep ai tne neaa 01 iae county gov
ernment the men who have lifted the
district out of debt and put it upon
a business basis, cannot express their
commendation of the present officers
as they should unles they register.
Those other citizens, who believe the
charges preferred by a group of dis
gruntled and disappointed seekers af
ter their own advancement, and who
have been led to believe that the re
call is justified, cannot vote their way
without registering. Therefor it is
important to all, on both sides of the
cause, to register.
The motto of every citizen of Clack
amas county, no matter what his per
sonal opinions may be, should be
henceforth:
"Register, don't delay, DO IT
NOW."

Echoes From Semicentennial
Of Gettysburg's Great Battle
Photos by American Press Association. '
THE big thing, the thing that gripped you, about the recent fiftieth an
niversary of the battle of Gettysburg was the spirit of reunion back
of the great mobilization of veterans. It demonstrated on a bigger,
more genuine, scale than ever before that the old bitterness of the
civil war had been buried long ago in the grave of forgotten deeds. Men who
fifty years ago tried to slaughter one another shook hands and swapped yarns
of the war In the good fellowship of old age. These pictures were taken at
the big encampment. The top one shows how many a Yank and rebel of half
a century ago shook hands with the best of good feeling for each other and
for the nation in which they live. The lower picture shows part of the 5,000
tents used by the 40,000 vets.
For the Baby's Bath.
There's no sweeter sight in the world
than a dear, tiny baby splashing about
in its bath,' and the giving of that bath
gives joy to any mother. It is a task
that she cannot always accomplish
conveniently, however,' for the ordi
nary wash basin is too small, and
"much splashing ruaketh the rug wet."
The bathtub is as much too big. and
it's a back breaking business to bend
down over it Now there has been in
vented the dearest little tub for a baby
that ever was. It's of rubber and is
fnstened to a metal frame, which, joy
of joy8 can be hooked right to the
sides of the big tub, and there it swings
like a little hammock within the larger
tub. It is at a convenient height, and
the splashings drop where they can do
no damage. The tub Is easily emptied,
for it is only necessary to pull one of
the side rods out of its rubber casing
and the little tub Immediately empties
its contents into the big bathtub. The
whole thing comes apart and can be
folded up and put away until It Is
needed again. Isn't this a convenient
thing? -
Reading For Sick Children.
When a sick child wants to read, but
is too weak to hold a book, get some
pages of brown paper about foolscap
size and paste on them short stories,
verses or amusing pictures. These are
quite light and handy to hold and can
be made very interesting with little or
no trouble., -
ANTAGONISM.
Do nol be afraid ol antagonism,
but (ace it manfully and with intelli
gence. He that wrestles with us
strengthens our nerves and sharpens
our skill. Our antagonist is our help
er. This conflict with difficulty
makes us acquainted with our ob
ject and compels us to consider it
- in all its relations. ' It will not suffer
us to be superficial. Edmund
