Rm-kwoll, tfresiilns elder In this dtetrit't for the Methodist church, re tail an appropriate story in connec tion with hla son Foster Rockwell, who baa gained a wide distinction as a foot ball player. ' Young Rockwell was quarterback for Yale in the recent struggle with Har vard, and to him aa much, perhaps, aa to any other one man Is ascribed Tale'a victory. In making up an "All American" eleven this year, the foot hall experts agree In naming him as the champion quarterback of the coun try. ' They call him a great field gen eral, remarkable for his grasp of the details of the game, and hla ability to take advantage of the changes in the situation. In his position a man must have the courage of his convictions. That the young man has It he is only a fresman was recently demonstrated in a manner worthy of record. The story is told tn the Classmate. "3ome one gave the. Tale champions banquet when the season was ended and every game had been won. Every iran was In his chair except the fresh man. qu;urter. He was sent for and brought reluctantly from his college room. Evidently he didn't expect to enjoy that dinner, but the older boys soon had his legs under the table. There were'songs, and cheers, and stor ies, and then the toasts. When the toast was 'To Good Old Tale!" some- one noticed that the quarterback did not raise the glass to his Hps. It was Champagne and he was a freshman. Tale freshmen are expected to do what npper classmen tell them to do. But this "all-American quarter" had as good grit in that banquet hall as he had on the Princeton gridiron, and he said, "No! I have never tasted wine in my life and I won't begin now." ' There's a football hero worth having. Email wonder that young Rockwell's , father is prouder of his boy's record at the feast than on the field. At the table he showed character and charac ter la above intellect It required phe nomenal ability to resist the rush of Harvard's "Empire State Express," but this young man displayed more of the elements that make the hero " when be so bravely withstood the blandish ments of his friends on a moral issue. All honor to this noble, product of a Christian home. Who getthtTbenefit? Editor Astorian: As time is being taken to consider various plans for con tructing the canal at Dalles-Celilo, would it not be well to profit by the exnerlcnce at the cascades and build a canal that will be of benefit to general navigation? None but the swiftest boats with great power em use the cascades canal. No sail boat, barge, vessel in tow or other cheap car rying freight boat can pass the cas cades. Hence, the cascades canal af fords but little competition with the land routes. So much capital is re quired to build and operate such boats as can stem the currents at tHe canal, that but few persons are able to en gage in the navigation of that part of the river, and it w'ould be easy for -the land lines to own or control the water lines. Indeed, it Is suspected that the "merger" has taken place al' reiWy. OBSERVER. If it is true, as intimated, that the ROOFING , The new high pade roof ing for low cost , work.

Co. is behind, and in front of, th recently completed steamboat arrangements, where does the benefit to the public come In? If he swift cross curre.it Just below the cascade locks prevents any boat but the strong est steamers from entering the' lock, how much better off will the smaller carriers the competition be when a like provision is made at Celilo? When the river la opened for the small craft, the cheaper class of carriers, and the boats with tows, then those who foot the hills will enjoy the freight rat to which they, as producers, are en titled, IVrliaps others can throw light on the questions raised by our valued correspondent Persons are accustomed to speak of the "high spirit" of a man or a woman or a horse, and call It a strong mullty. That depend. A high spirit temper, as we callit is valuable only as it Is nnder control. Parents do not always understand this. Too often, when the young child flouts Itself In irritation or In anger, the father and mother laugh at the exhibition. Later they learn with regret that they have an unrestrained spirit to deal with. Schools do not al ways teach self-control as they ought. What is called "discipline" is often an arbitrary thing adapted better to pro voke than to control the temper of chil 'dren. More than half of culture Is con trol And restrained power Is one of the secrets of success. When men want power from water they restrain it, store it up, dam it "Why do the tides rise reslstlessly? Because the swing of the ocean is behind themlWatch the great orator as he speaks. Analyse the force behind his plea. What Is It? Re strained, reserved power controlled spirit Study the passion of the great actor. There is a greater passion in reserve. The one who "tears passion to tatters" has none left In his storage battery. "Greater is he that controlleth his own spirit that he that takeh a city." He who permls his temper to boil over gives the spectacle of the hur ried, heated, excited loser in the race. He is self -handicapped. Store up your engines. Keep your temper in leash. Do not push and crowd and fume and sweat and Bwear. For verily, verily, you will get left. The man who has his temper well harnessed will pass you by. Iron was so scarce an article In scrip tural times that it was good economy aSwell as a good peace measure to beat the swords Into plowshares. Condi tions have changed. The Boers In South Africa consign their swords to the scrap heap and send to the United States for American farming tools. They have recently ordered seventeen thousand eight-horse plows from a New York dealer, and large quantities of other tools in other parts of the country.
