SUGGESTS NEW
MOTTO FOR SCHOOL
Chicago, Aug. I. Right, respect and
responsibility are .the "three Rs" most
needed In the schoolroom, according to
Professor Clyde W. Votaw of the Unl
veralty of Chicago, who lectured on
"Ethics and the Puhlln Schools" ''-mt tha
university. Professor Votaw urged
teachers to give up some of the cultural
subjects of the curriculum In favor of
--moral" ana practical branches.
"We must set awav from fha nnltnral
training in the public schools," he said.
"The needs of the individual student
must be met. I favor more manual
training and Industrial and commercial
ooursea. Ethics also should be taught,
and I think the 'three Rs' should he
right, respect and responsibility.
"The school is the only logical place
for the develODment of the child. Tk.
church and the home have both proved
unable to minister to the child' edu
cational needs. The school, because of
its compulsory character and its pro

RETURNS RING AND
SAVES GIRL'S LIFE
Montelalr, N. J.. Aug. I. A remark
able story of the return of a stolen en
gagement ring la told by Judge Arthur
Darlington. A young Brooklyn woman
whose name la Helen, called on the
judge. She refused to divulge any par
ticulars concerning beraelf, but said:
"A dear friends, of mine, a young
woman, has been very ill of an un
known malady for nearly two years.
She tried Europe and many places in
thia country, without improvement, and
as a last resource Montelalr is being
tried.
"A month ago," continued the young
woman, "I chanced to overhear her
physician say to her mother: 'If that
ring could be found. I believe It would
act like magic In your daughter's case.
She has no physical aliment; but worry
over the loss of the ' ring is slowly
bringing her to the grave.'
1 said noting to the motner. nut
as I knew where the- ring , was I de
cided to get it It was an engagement
ring given three years ago to the girl
by her fiance. A short time before
the dato set for the marriage he died.
The girl for a time , was Inconsolable.
A year later the ring was stolen. The
girl grew ill,' and has been an invalid
ever since.
"Last winter I saw the ring on a
young woman, an Intimate friend of the
sick girl. I supposed it had been given
to her. When the holder returned from
Europe a" week ago, I told her of the Ill
ness of our friend, and that if the ring
were not returned, the . young woman
would undoubtedly die.
"After pledging me to secrecy, the
young woman confessed ahe had stolen
the ring. A strong impulse to possess It
had com over her, and she could not
resist it, she said."
The visitor produced a gold band, set
with three diamonds. Handing It to
Darlington, she said:
"I want you to deliver it to th girl's
mother. You must not say how you got
possession of it just that It was handed
to you to deliver. ' 1
Judge Darlington, pledged to keep se
cret the family's name, delivered the
ring in a sealed package.

; Tho Mazamas have completed all their
preparations aqd are ready to set forth
at midnight tonight for their trip up
Mount Baker. All the details have been
carefully arranged and this is looked
forward" to as perhaps the pleasantest,
and' easily tha most convenient trip
ever taken by these mountain climbers.
The party will reach Bellrtigham to
morrow afternoon .Mner they will be
entertained with a reception and the
next morning they will leave in auto
mobiles, for Demlng and outside that
town will leave the wagon road and will
start on th 16 mile hike to their per
manent camping place. Half way ui
they will spend th night and the next
any will complete the distance,
C. H. Sholee, chairman of the outing
committee, is in Bellingham awaiting
the party, for he went ahead to select
a camping spot It is situated at the
southwest base of th mountain. Mr.
Sboles is most enthusiastlo over Mount
Baker and its possibilities and has pub
lished an article or two in th Belling
ham naDera urging that city to under
take as ' soon as possible the constru
tlon of an automobile road up Mount
Baker, thus opening th. region to tour
tats. Mr: Bholes says a road could be
easily built with an easy grade and
with many level stretches, and he pro
nounces the wealth of scenery and the
panorama unfolded from Mount vnne
to be as wild, varied and beautiful as
would be possible to be found anywhere.
He urges the building of such a road as
a great benefit to the publicity of that
action of the country.
Only this year a trail haa been built
on the mountain, canea tne ueminz
Mount Baker trail which makes the as
cent comparatively easy. It has opened
up the mountain as a summer "play
ground." The peak rises 10.000 feet
above th sea and is but 12 hours' jour
ney from Bellingham, ao that it is a
practicable trip for anyone. The boost
ers of the little town of Demlng built
the trail which haa opened up the pos
sibilities of this beautiful country to
the public. Mr. Sholes Urges that
Bellingham lend Its aid to evolve a fine
automobile road and then Baker will be
as popular a destination for motorists
as Mount Hood has recently become.
The party that has signed up to take
this trip from Portland numbers 41 and
several additions to the rbmpany will
be made at Bellingham. They will be
headed by Mr. Shoies, chairman, and
John A. Lee, secretary, of the outing
committee. -
