COME OP OUR USEFUL CITIZENS
-Vr The Statesman is pleased to payijfrequent tribute to useful
citizens and groups of useful citizens- j
(The word group .is ; used Jin this connection instead of
classes,, because in this' country there- are, no classes)
: And titles of nobility are forbidden by the Constitution of
the United States. . . . i
f. Salem has many useful citizens among her professional
men and women; among her teachers and preachers; among
her business people ; in all walks of life, with wealth and with
moderate means, and .with little or no means atall
;f .But some of, her most useful citizens are the men and
women-and children ; xrha tm to the farms and nick the goose
berries and strawberries the
evergreen 'blackberries and the'
and filberts, the prunes and pears and apples and other fruits;
and who help in harvesting all the other crops, and in. training
the vines and cultivating the growing things at other seasons
for. Jiere in the Salem district there is seed time and harvest
every month in the year. The work must be carried forward
on the dairy and poultry and other farms every month, and
, every day in the month, even including Sundays. , . , , -l K

attain happiness when he has lived an imperfect, 1 sinful life
here! Answer that question lor yourself by deciding what you
would think pflthe parent who would not give his undeveloped,
disobedient child who had "erred and "sinned another chance any
where, any time? Cruel, brutal, unfeeling would be the proper
adjectives to describe such a parent. The God who commands
us to forgive " seventy times seven" will be always sending out
to us His infinite love, wherever we are and calling us to come
up higher. Otherwise He would not be the God of love! whom

And where is the world of spirits which we are to enter when
we die? Some of the highest, brightest, most spiritual minds
of this age declare that it is not far away, but is hidden from us
by our lack of spiritual vision, and the limitations of our phy
sical senses. Listen to Harriet Beecher Stowe: ,;T

And natoitate the veil between, 1

So thin, -so soft, so sweet they glide,

HELPING THB STUDENT
For a number ; of years . past.
the trend has been all towards
helping; youth, shaping the twig In
the way the tree should grow.
This has gone from playgrounds to
the more serious problem af help,
ing young -men and women
through school.' Oklahoma has
taken adranced ground r' and i: la
permitting young men and women
to borrow, money with which to
complete their education. A few
years ago this would, have been
revolatlonary but today It is ac
cepted with satisfaction. We have
learned that notf only must we
direct a mass but we must direct
the individual. ' ; f '
Under the law any nigh school
graduate' may apply, for a loan if
he intends to enter a college or
university within the state! The
amount ot money the student may
borrow Is limited to S 3 0 0 annu
ally under the statute. He may
borrow 9300 for a one year
course if he arranges payment
one year afterward. He may bor
row $600 to be repaid two years
later, the same ratio being main
tained In loans (or three and four
years ot college .work. , ..
Interest mast not exceed 6 per
cent. ' '
; That Is the attractive feature
which appeals to the prospective
students who have inquired for
further Information from the state
board of public instruction, Nash
says. In banks which make such
loans , to young 'men or women,
the state promises, according to
the law, to open depository ac
counts. ! ,. . - . . "
All' banks making the loans
and receiving state deposits, "how.
ever, are responsible to the state
for the funds, loaned to the stud
enta, Naah aaldi This has the ef
fect, according to the state super
intendent, of making banks ; re
quire the same sort of note, de
manding the same security -and
arranging the same terms, with
the possible,,, exception of the
amount of interest, which ' any
other s borrower would be called
upon to meet." The ultimate re
sult is that banks ; Simply loan
state money, ' through their own
Institution, it Is pointed out;.
This, Superintendent, Nash
states, while offering an extension
of 13000 a year credit from the
state, does not in any way relieve
the student from any responsibil
ity or necessity of presenting ac
ceptable, security tor the funds
borrowed. j ' . .
CARRYIKQ THE JIAIIi
V A great deal , of interest has
been shown In carrying the mall
by pony express from St. Joseph,
Missouri, "to San Francisco, fifty
years after the original pony, er
press was started. It has 'been a
spectacular race but the time has
been shortened in every instance.
Of course, there is a reason for
this. In the old days the pony
express V blazed his ; own : trail.
Now it , has gone over entirely
well-made and well-marked roads.
It Is not pioneering.1 It is play
now, but It la Just as well to hark
back: to the pioneer f days and
catch If poslble, something of the
spirit of those times4 ;4 ; : f i I
A good deal of poetry was writ

ever, there are instances ; where
papers actually do' supply a real
need. One of those Instances is
at hand. When Cornelius Van-

an illustrated newspaper In Los
Angeles, he marked an epoch j
western Journalism. The Illus
trated ' Dally News has come In
response to an opportunity which
arises to a real need of j such 1 a

thumb ' over Jila shoulder in the

were going, and I swung the -car
around, proceeded on the road he
had indicated, and in another two
minutes was rewarded with the
sight of the-rustic office.
A Search. .
- i
I had a sudden Impulse to snatch
the letter from Dicky's fingers
and tear it Into shreads ' lasted
of -permitting it to go on its un
checked way to Grace Draper. BjI
I crushed the impulse, and silent
ly drove away from the postofflce
with a haunting little premoni
tion of evil to come. '
, "Where to now. old dear'
Dicky asked idly. "Ticer farm 'or
our own?"- Vi'
i,,NeIthe., I i returned! forcing
a smile. "I mast go first to that
farmhouse where father and you
are stopping, and see that he has
left nothing cluttering his room.
He gave it up you know." ' - F
" "Yes." Dicky drawled, "and I
suppose that If he left a. pla or a
scrap of paper on the floor yonrl
conscious soul won't rest until it
has been removed and the repu
tation of your family for perfect
order rescued from smirching."
I laughed and laid my hand on
his with a light caress, for I knew
that beneath his- gibe lay a touch
of resentment tor ' this 1 very ten
dency of mine to revel in orderli
ness. Dicky, though fastidious to
a fault, is the most disorderly per
son Imaginable, and I 'waste more
time picking up his belongings
than. I can well spare. .,.....
"You ought to be thankful It
isn't you this time," I said light
ly, and we talked of other things
until we turned into the yard of
the farmhouse where' my father
had roomed.
I searched the room thoroughly,
hardly acknowledging to t myself
that I hoped to find some clue to
hla. audden' Joarney. There was
no fireplace, so he could not have
burned the telegram,' and in his
waste basket were only a few In
nocuous envelopes. : He must have
put the pieces of the telegram, In
his pocket, for I knew his scrupu
lous habit of destroying all pro
fessional communications. And
then, on I the stairs outside the
door, I found two tiny scraps of
yellow paper. . ,

HOW TO SLAKE A MAGIC
. .-IZiV&ClU-.
; '.The Magic Pencil draws any
thing you want At to, no matter
how hard, for it really is only a
sort of tracing machine that any
boy or girl can make , with some
strips of light wood, some screws
and a tack. , ; . -
.Take two strips of - wood - aix
teen Inches long. . Overlap, and
fasten them, loosely at the end
with a round screw which allows
the pieces of wood to slip. In any
flirectlon. ' Eight inchea from the
point ot joining on the left-hand '
strip, fasten your short cross
piece with a loose screw. On the
right-hand strip the smaller piece
should be Joined seven Inches
from the top screw. T Then the
two; cross-pieces should be joined,
also with a loose screw.
I Fasten the long arm on the left
to the paper with a thumb tack
through a round hole in the end.,
A' tack in the end of one short
piece will trace the picture you
wish to copy. As the tack moves,
a pencil stub you have fastened in
the end of the right arm through
a hole, moves around and drawa
the picture. 1
tPoor,. unsuspecting - Madame
Season placed ; the russet turban
on Autumn's curls, and kissing
ber.-sent her off. When she was
farfronr Season's, shop, Autumn
paused, and on each point ot her
gorgeous skirt fastened a tinkling
silver, bell. Then, to Earth she
danced. "-' '-
The apples and maple leaves
and pumpkins and dark ears of
torn smiled at Autumn and turn
ed the colors of her dress scar
let and yellow and orange and
ochre.' But as they turn, they
heard a faint, tinkling sotse
"Frost!" they cried. "Silver
hells! Winter -Is coming!" The
people gathered their crop quick
ly; the leaves fell to the ground.
And before ahe had been on Earth
any, time, at all. Autumn found
that no one was paying any atten
tion to her. Weeping, she ran to
Mother Season to tell her that
she'd stolen Winter's bells.
