QUALITY VS. QUANTITY
Uoforc the convention of the Daugh
ters of tho American Revolution, Airs.
A. 13. 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., . I

tl,crororo bo it I
"Resolved, That it is our duty.' a, !
daughters of these men, to encourage
bv all tho power and influence of on
great society the porpotuation of
their raco, and lot It bo our privilege
to tako under our special care tho
fourth child who shall hereafter ho
born to a Daughter of the American
Revolution. 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

Of course Mrs. Johnston has
mounded a true note. She wants more

THE BEST TEACHERS.
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

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-

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

the waitresses two bear the title of

wife of an admiral, another, the wifo

"One professor, ono lawyer tvnd twu

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

The audience roared for months at

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
