Johnston, delegate from tne Pasadena, Cal., post, introduced a resolution calling upon tho membois of tho patriotic society to perpctuaib tho hardy stock which flowered In tin revolutionary times by rearing lam lies of four children. The resolution as presented reads: "Whereas, We can do nothing to advancu Americanization morn surely and more thoroughly than by incren ing I lie children of the hardy plonker race of Americans; and, "Whereas, No country offers hotter conditions for the progress of the hu man race than our fair land, with all i , , , , , I., .

And let un docorato tho daughter who shall glvo four children to America. And bo it further "Resolved, That tho prosldent gen- oral appoint a committee to study tho , , miujeui ui (joiiHui vaiiiiu in our pioneer families." Tho question immediately presents itsolf, "Does quantity production in suro perpetuation of tho sturdy stock or doos qunllty production Insure it." Another question which is correlative suggests itsolf worded about like this Under present economic conditions can tho avorago family roar a family of four children, giving thorn such advantages that they will bo u credit to themselves and to tho community In which they dwell -In short, perpot tutting the sturdy pioneer stock?

Count up thu groceries, tho clothes, tho expenses on a little autonioblloi, rout or tuxes, a safo amount for ill ness which must bo mut an a rule, a sum to cover a short vacation for tho wifo and children at least and there is nothing loft.

Edward Tobin who is responsible for the education of children in Cook county, Illinois. He has some 2000 teachers under him so he could know 1 what he Is talking about. I Ho has hit a fundamental truth. , Time was when old maids were con sidered the ideal school teachers. They never got married. They had no men friends. They never went to parties or dances. They just taught school and grew a bit more austere and for bidding as the years romped by. But the thinking people of this nn- l Hon are waking up to the fact that a woman can smile book learning uuo the unwilling minds or pupils. An at tractivo woman, in love, is normal. She sees the world as it is, a beauti ful place In which to live. She sees everything as appealing. She puts zest i . amI Klatlnoss luto ller teaching. She cltheS hnrd lacts with 1,leasi,1 fn"- cy so that the childish minds eat ft I and consider it delicious. ' "If I get them homely nnd stupid, then they aro no good as teachers," says Tobin. That type is usually sour and Undesirable. If there hn nnvMilnir m porBona, limgnot8m puttlng thlnga llcrosg( tho homely ones and pid ones nnd tiio ones of vinegar as pect are bound to fail in teaching the young idea how to shoot. Everything they view is seen through distorted ,(n) ,,, , t. montnl oyes, How in the vory nature of things can they mould the second generation into good and self-supporting citizens! Touchers who fall in lovo and nrt: beloved and eventually leave to make some man happy In a harmonious home are by all moans the best In- 8t,uc,01s - Tho very fact that men claim thorn proves thorn desirablo- llos,,'bl wives and mothers-de sirable as teachers of children who aro learning in class room lesson to live Joyously, abundantly and helpful ly. UPS AND DOWNS Consider tho bread line which daily forms in front of tho Orthodox churcn in Podwal street, Warsaw. In this line aro 1000 refugees. They aro not com- I mon refugees, however. The line is for tho most part mudo u,i of Intellec tual workers, professional men, for mer diplomats, court officials, gener als and admirals, court officials, land owners, professors and nobles in short of tho elite of Russian socloty um,cp ,ho ohl reBlme' 8 to Ludmlla Lubllnoff, head of tho Rus ' slau relief work in Poland, In addition to tho porsons of high ' lllllllU I't.lll. .1 I. 11.... l.n ..1 4 ...... v UDl"" Ul,,l, Of eiltlullv 111 Lrli sin!

What a scene to make one ponder the verities of life. Hero are assem bled down and outers who a few short years ago wero at tho top of tho so cial, financial and intellectual htup. It serves to indicate that life is rather an unstable thing at best, that today you may be up and tomorrow you may be down. Also it brings the thought that some external thing over which ono has lltle or no control may in a twinkling wreck all, the plans desp laid and workable which have been set out as life's guiding principles. After viewing the bread line nnd the soup kitchen, wc can say with ibsen, "The law of change is the only constant thing in the world."

"Each and every one of us has, at some time or other, experienced the feeling that we would like to see what it would be like, to have all the money we could spend," Manager Nolan of the JJmprcss Theater, in a reminiscent mood, mused this morning. "Nearly all of us have even gone so far as to rea son out how wo would start in to make the dollars fly. "The only case where this idea was used as a plot for a book, how ever, was when George Barr Mc Cutcheon used these day dreams of the vast majority as a basis upon which to work and produced the book, "Brewster's Millions." "Then it was dramatized and as a play it visualized the troubles and efforts of Monte Brewster to separ ate himself frotn a million dollars. The audience roared for months at the same situations and dialogue which had appealed so strongly in the book perhaps it was because In their own minds, these people had day-dreamed themselves in the same By Far WTH MILLION? go on Goodyear The Dalles Garage WE HAVE EVERY TYPE AND SIZE OF GOODYEAR TIRE FOR YOUR TRUCK OR PASSENGER CAR PNEUMATICS OR SOLID Distributors in Wasco I predicaments Monto Brewster found himself. "The making of the book into a motion picture followed and the very fact that the plot Is such a human one is partly responsible for the great success of it in this form. We say 'partly,' because in reallfy 'Fatty' Arbuckle is so perfectly cast in the leading role that a large percentage ot credit is due the comedian with tho avoirdupois " 'Brewster's Millions,' as a picture play takes first rank among the great successes in this branch of art. In fact, it is a Paramount pic ture in every sense of the word, and will make everyone In The Dalles laugh, because no one here can afford to miss it. This picture play is made from a real story and not an indication of anything other tlln the cleanest fun enters into it." The following prizes will be given by Manager Nolan for the best orig inal composition, in which the writer sets forth his or her own ideas on tho subject of spending a million dollars.
