Mr. "Whltham goes from the United Etates as a special commissioner from the bureau of foreign and domestic commerce of the United States. "I am not prepared to discuss at any length the work that I am going into at the present time," said Mr. Whitham yesterday. "The time for me to talk will be when I can talk with author ity, when I return In 1919, after having made a survey of the continent of Asia from Vladivostok to Southern India. "The United States seems to me to stand at this time much in the position of a strong, intelligent and capable young man who has just been offered the opportunity of a vastly bigger Job than he ever undertook before and for which he has never actually trained himself. It is up to him to begin study ing and fitting himself to hold down the new Job and that is what Uncle Earn Is doing right now in his surveys and studies of the big new trade dis tricts which are to be opened particu larly to him in Asia In the coming years. "Not only is there the problem of studying the market, but the necessity of developing our own port and dis tribution facilities so that we will be qualified fully to take advantage of the Oriental opportunities aa they open." Mr. VSTiitham left last night for Spo kane and will sail from British Colum bia for Yokahama in about two weeks. He was a guest of the members' coun cil of the Chamber at luncheon yester day and gave a brief talk. Prior to his going into the Government service Mr. Whitham was designing and con sulting engineer In the development of the Port of Seattle and was the man who designed and superintended the building of the big bulk grain elevators in Seattle. ......... ........... j- -v N it If ;l f ' i - " " t SPanl Page Wlilthnm.

Spranger Denies Responsibility for Murder of Henry Melster, for Which He Was Indicted. Glen Wright, associated with Ray D. Gould In the theft of automobiles, pleaded guilty to two counts of lar ceny before Presiding Judge Ganten bein yesterday. Sentence was postponed until today. Deputy District Attorney Collier asking that Wright not be sen tenced until after Gould, who pleaded guilty last week. Gould will appear for sentence to day. The state awaits the result of the examination of County Physician -McKay, who was asked to Investigate the plea of tuberculosis entered by Gould to enable him to escape a pentitentlary sentence. Emil H. Spranger pleaded not guilty yesterday to the charge of murdering Henry Meister, of which he is accused in an indictment returned by the grand Jury last week. Barney Glldez and Lillle Bleloh pleaded not guilty to a statutory charge and trial was set for Wednes day, June 6. This was the nearest date possible on the criminal calendar. Gildez may have to stay In Jail until trial, as he is unable to furnish bail. The woman was released on her own recognizance yesterday. She Is a mar ried woman. The long wait often necessary before criminal cases may be tried is causing some criticism of the presiding judge system now in effect in the Circuit Court, but it is expected the delay will be done away with eventually. In the case of Gildez, the prisoner will have to stay in jail more than two months awaiting trial, at which there is a pos sibility he may be found not guilty. PERSONALJWENTION. W. F.

TrainingThe ' CHILD BV WILLIAM BYRON PORBUSH.PHJX WHISKY IMPORTED AS OIL Consignments Billed Falsely, but No Arrests Have Been Made Yet. Under billing as cylinder and motor oil, 20 barrels of California contra band whisky, containing 1100 gallons In all, were seized by deputies of the United States Internal Revenue Serv ice upon the arrival of the llquof In this city last Thursday and Friday. Anticipating the illicit consignment. "VTOD know the old saying about "mln- JL lsters' sons and deacons' daugh ters." It seems that It Is all wrong. One-twelfth of all the men whose names appear In "Who's Who" are sons of clergymen. They are nearly twice the number of sons of lawyers and physicians combined. Four Presidents were softs of minis ters: Buchanan, Arthur. Cleveland and Wilson. Three poets: Holmes, Lowell ana braerson. Two historians: Ban croft and Parkman. Such distinguished names in various fields as Henry Clay, Agasslz, Morse and Henry James. Sometimes the preachers are founders of marvelous lines of descent. Among the descendants of Jonathan Edwards were: One Vice-President, three Sena tors, 30 judges. 60 authors. 12 coNege presidents, etc, and not one of the number traced, 1394, was ever convicted of a crime. Then there is the. immortal Field family, embracing Cyrus W., who laid the first Atlantic cable; David Dudley, the renowned lawyer, and Stephen J. the United States Supreme Court Jus tice. And equally renowned is the Beecher family, which includes Henry Ward Beecher and Mrs. Stowe, author of "Uncle Tom's Cabin." The' father was a preacher. Clergymen Come From the Country. That a single class, numbering one out of 600 of the population (not counting celibate priests), should be come parents of one-twelfth of the country's distinguished men is so r markable that it is worth trying to account for. Perhaps we can learn something. - Clergymen come largely from the country. I have just been looking over the yearbook of a certain de nomination that lists its theological students. I found that only 20 per cent of these come from large cities. The great majority were registered from towns that are so small I never had heard of them. They are overwhelmingly from fam ilies in moderate circumstances. So extraordinary is it for a minister to be wealthy that the fact always deserves a newspaper paragraph. From the great middle class, from the class to whom education means sacrifice, comes the ministry. Allured by commerce and wealth, because ac customed to penury, these young men have been diverted by some definite Influence to a profession that holds out no such goals. This Influence, as their testimony shows, has usually been their mothers' devotion. We may account for the high character of our clerical profession by ' the' careful and unselfish training of their mothers. They come from homes that .were. In the best sense, "good." - They Live the Simple Life. The household into which ministers' sons are born understand what Is meant by the simple life. A number of denominations are now trying to bring the average salary of their clergy up to $1000 a year. Tens o thousands of these good men are ex isting on a stipend of 1800. The salary of ministers averages but a trifle above that of unskilled laborers. In these homes there are no Idle hands. My neighbor, the Methodist parson, manfully helps his wife with the washing every Monday morning. The affinity between chickens and the ministry, familiar to newspaper humor. Is actual in the fact that hens are its staple supplement to Income and larder. In such homes children early learn to be Industrious and helpful. . Their His Faith. Two particularly uplifting forces ex ist in these -noble households. One Is the presence of ideals of culture. The minister cannot afford to buy books, but he cannot afford to do without them,, so he is often the only man in the community who has a respectable library. - His children are accustomed to the enjoyment of reading. Ha also has a passionate belief in education, and although how he manages it only the good Lord knows, he generally sends his sons and daughters to col lege. Young people with such backing and such background are bound to make good. The Ideals of religious life and serv Ice held by such parents would natur ally be mentioned in this connection. as the most potent of all Influences for good. I would not so class them. directly. The necessary professional ism of their fathers activities, with the petty and often needless detail of pastoral life, must frequently cause a revolt in the minds of the open-eyed children, who contrast his earnestness with the meanness and unappreclatlve ness of the people. But I do place as the most - important factor in the sit uatlon this, that though the father is engrossed with parochial concerns, he is, more than any other father in the town, at home. The modern pastor is also more than other men an interested . student of child psychology. He Is, therefore, something of an expert, and he is a practicing parent. Q, K. IX The moral seems to be this: If you want your children to have 60 times as many chances as other children to be come noteworthty, live in a small place on a small income, expose your chil dren to -books and culture, and give them your personal study and care. To the Editor. I am taking a busi ness course in the High School. In one more year I shall have completed a course of bookkeeping, but I would like to be a doctor and go to Turkey. I have not had any Latin yet. Do you think there is any chance of my ever becoming a doctor? If so, please state what I should do to begin. I would have to earn money as I went along. A. S. B. In order to secure a first-rate medi cal training you must first go through college,' or at the least, have two or three years of college. In order to enter college you must finish the classical or scientific course in high school. Your business course will count very little In this direction. Your medical work will last four years, and after that you should have a year or two of hospital experience. If your Idea In going to Turkey Is to go aa a missionary, you will realize that a missionary board can afford to invswt only In a man of ability Sweep Out. The Poisons! The large In testine is the seat of many distressing ailments, the prolific producer of poisons that impair all functions of the body. Keep it clean and healthy by eating the right kind of foods. Cut out the drug laxatives. No need of pills, oils or bran cakes when you eat Shredded Wheat Biscuit, a food that contains all the material needed for building healthy tissue and at the same time supplies enough bran to gently stim ulate peristalsis, thus keep ing the bowels healthy and active. Try it for break fast with hot milk, stewed prunes, or sliced bananas. Made at Oakland, California. who Is thoroughly prepared, so I would advise you to consult the -officers of your own denominational board at once and get their advice as to the special emphasis they would want you to make In your studies. I would say that 11 years would be the shortest time which you could safe ly allow for this training. With good health and ambition I be lieve you can earn your way as you go along. Very likely your business course will help you. The further on you are the more friends are likely to rise up to encourage you. The mis sionary board will probably put help In your way after you have persuaded them that you are in- earnest. Although, the time seems long, you must remember that you can prepare for nothing worth while In a short time. It is better to wait to do what you want to than to begin at once to do what you don't care for. ASK FOR and GET D-Sori Sell's .The Original malted aiilk Substitutes Cost YOU Same Price.
