PLAYING POLITICS
While the standpat republicans
are to blame for throwing congress
into contusion rather than listen
to the progressives, the . old line
democrats are playing their usual
destructive game. They will go
before the country demanding tax
reduction, and yet the whole group
Is engaged in a strenuous, yet de
liberate effort to prevent the re
ductlon of taxes.
One. thing you can always count
on is, the democrat is always a
democrat. You may scratch the
moss off his back and democracy is
there in all its purity. All this
talk about voting for the man is
because he thinks he finds the best
men on the democratic ticket.
The situation is" bad for any re
-tduction of taxes-, but the demo
cratic responsibility is Just as pro
nounced as that of the stand-pat
republicans. h'J;.-

Geer renioves one of the strong,
stalwart figures of Oregon. Of
late years he had not been active.
He wis a rigorous executive, a
man of character, and at times al
most rose to the dignity of states

time, but it is always hard to lose
our good men.

CHAPTER 109
THE TASK LILLIAN. ASKED
MADGE TO PERFORM
Katie went siowly out of the
room, a bowed, drooninc figure.
so pitifully different from the vol
atile, tempestuous little maid who i
had served us so long and so faith
fully, thatT could not keep the
tears from my eyes as I watched
her.
For I knew, as Lillian and Moth
er Graham did not, the bitter dis
appointment which was in store
for her, when she should read her
letter from Jim, and learn that
the husband who bad adored her
In his clumsy, stolid fashion, had
gone away for an indefinite per
iod, firm in the belief that 'she no
longer loved him. that, instead, she
cared for the man she had been
meeting in so mysterious a fash
Ion. The door had no sooner secure
ly closed 'upon' her than Mother
Graham whirled upon me.
.. "You can't fool me!1: she said.
"There's something going On that
I don't know anything about.
What 'did Jim tell you tonight
when he asked to see you in the
kitchen? Has he left Katie? If
he has, he ought to have his neck
wrung. I wish I had known what
he was up to when he came meech
ing around asking to talk to you
I'd. have put a flea in his ear, 1
can tell you."
! She paused for sheer lack of
breath, while I reflected upon the
canny intuition with which' she
had jumped at the truth, and the
peculiarity of her temperament
Which made her rush to Katie s
defence at any attack upon her,
when she herself .was constantly
criticising the girl's actions. It
proved, I thought, an old idea of
mine that secretly she is very fond
of Katie, and would miss her even
more than I would were she to
leave us.
Not Exactly."
"Not that she doesn't deserve to
have him. leave her," my mother-
in-law resumed, with one of the
lightning-like changes of front
with which -she often bewilders
us. "Almost any husband would
raise Cain at the way she's been
acting lately. But, for all that
look here,' Margaret, haven't you
a tongue in your head? Did Jim
tell you he was going to leave
Katie for. good?"
"Not exactly," I returned, thank
ful. indeed, that my promise to
Jim concerning his plans extend
ed only to Katie. I could confirm
Mother Graham's guess with
conscience all the clearer for the
opportunity It gave me to warn
her against saying anything to
Katie about Jim's departure. I
wanted to deal with my little maid
on that question by myself.
" 'Not exactly' " she mimicked
"What sort of an answer is that?
Now, don't you come any of your
hlghand-mighty airs with me
Margaret, for I won't have it. I
have a right to know what is go
ing on in this house, and if you
can't tell me I'll go straight to
Katie aud get it out ot her."
She started to the door, her head
held high. That she would make
good her threat I well knee, and
I returned Lillian's wink of under-
standinr commiseration ' with-'
wry grin, as 1 followed, her" and
put a restraining hand upon her
arm. i ' ' .
v'r haven't-the slightest inten
tlon of keeping anything from you
Mother. Come iuto the library
and I'll tell ypu what Jim said.'
1 made the mental reservation
as I followed Dicky's mollified
mother, from, the kitchen that 1
had not promised to tell her all
Jim had said, and I carefully ccn
sored my report of the conversa
tion as I repeated it to Mother
Graham.' But it satisfied her cur
iosity, and . provided her ' with
new grievance always , a good
thtng.:rgrrrwin-shy la -'H
peclally rampageous in the pro- i
posed substitution of Jerry Ticer
for Jim In the doing of the farm
chores.
Madge Is Kept Dusy.
i "Jerry Ticer!" she- ejaculated.
"Jerry Ticer! Well, I might as well
put in the order for my coffin
now, for I know that boy will
worry me into my grave. Why.
that eternal 'yes, ma'am' of his
makes me feel like throwing the
poker at him! And 1 know he'll
forget every single solitary thing
I tell him to do."
I mentally agreed with herr f
the redoubtable Jerry, althouiA
one ot the most obliging lads in
the world, and a good, faithful
worker, of whom even Mother Gra
ham approves in her good-natured
moments, has a most wretched
memory. But I always get around
that deficiency of Jerry's by check
ing each order I give him with a
similar request to his mother. And
as Mrs. Ticer could give cards anti
spades to any memory teacher, I
always feel secure about any tasks
I may lay upon Jerry's willing
shoulders.
I knew that Mother Graham
would forget all about Katie in her
contemplation of Jerry Ticer's de
ficiencies, and I encouraged her
in a monologue upon the boy until
she ran down for want of words,
and remembered that she ought to
make an Inspection of Richard Sec
ond and the other sleeping chil
dren. "If you'll sit up to let Richard
and Elizabeth in," she said, yawif
ing, "1 believe I'll go to bed. I'm
frightfully tired."
"Of course," I acquiesced, but I
looked at Lillian ruefully when my
mother-in-law finally left us.
"Will this day never end?" I
asked, with every nerve and mus
cle reminding me that I had risen
at dawn, had driven over a hund
red miles, and had just experienc
ed one of the most strenuous hours
of my life.
"Yes," smiled Lillian, looking
at her watch, "in an hour and . a
quarter more. And we u nave just
about time before Dicky and his
sister get here to take the. wheels
of tonight's happenings apart and
see if we can find out what makes
them go round."

government. But when we 'ex
amine tbe meaning of independ
ence.' of constitutional liberty and
of self government, we do not find
that they are simply rights which
society can bestow-upon us. They
are very complex. , They have to
be earned. , They have to be paid
for. They arise only from the
discharge of our obligations, one
to another.
"Washington did not. could not.
give anything to his countrymen.
His greatness lies In the fact that
he was successful in calling Uiyem
to the performance of? a higher
duty. Ho showed them how to
have a greyer liberty tyy earning
it. All that any. society can do.J
all mat any government can aoi
Is to attempt to guarantee t,th j
individual the boclal, , economic
I a.d political . rowarda.ol.lus. own,
effort and Industry. The America
which Washington founded does
not mean we shall have everything
for ourselves. This Is liberty,' but
it is liberty only through the ac
ceptance of responsibility.
Activities Recalled
"It cannot fall to be worth
while to recall some of the activi
ties of Washington and the men
ot his day. Before we complain
too much about our hardships in
these luxurious days, before we
lose faith in the power( of the peo
ple by relying on themselves to
best serve themselves, it is well to
consider the early beginnings of
this republic.
Self government does not purge
us of all our faults, but there are
very few students of the affairs of
mankind who would deny that tae
theory upon which our institutions.

that have ever been given to any
neople. When there is a failure
it is not because the system has
failed, but because we have failed
For the purpose of incurring lib
erty, for enactment of sound legis
lation, for the administration of
evenhanded justice, for the faith
ful execution of the laws, no in
stitutions have ever given greater
piomise or more worthy perform
ance than those which are repre
seated by the name of Washing
ton.
"We have changed our consti
tution and laws to meet changing
conditions and a better apprec5a
tion of the broad requirements of
humanity. We have extended and
increased the direct power of the
voter. But the central idea of
self government remains un
changed. While we realize that
ireedom and independence of the
individual mean increased respon
sibility for the individual, while
we know that the people do aad
must support the government, ard
that the government does not
and cannot support the people,
yet the protection of the indivi
dual from the power now repre
stnted by organized numbers and
consolidated wealth require many
activities on the part of the g )V
eminent which were not needed in
the days of Washington. Many
laws are necessary for tLis du
pose both in the name of justice
and humanity. Efforts in this di
rectlon are not for th purpose of
determining independence of the
individual but for the purpose of
maintaining for him an equal op
portunity. They are made on the
theory that each individual Is en
tiUcd to live his own life in his
own way, free from every kind of
tyranny and oppression.
Washington Practical Mmu
"We have not yet reached the
goal of Washington's Ideals. They
are not yet fully understood. He
was a practical man. He suffered
from no delusions. He knew that
there was no power to establish
a system under which existence
could be supported without effart
Those who now expect anything in
that direction are certain to be
disappointed. He held out no pro
mlse of unearned rewards, either
in small or large amounts.
. "On the other hand, if no one
ought to receive gain except for
service rendered, no one ought to
be required to render service ex
cept for reasonable, compensation
Equality and justice both require
that there should be no profiteer
ing and no exploitation.
"Under the constitution of the
United States there is neither aay
peasantry or any order of nobit'ty
Politically, economically and so
cially, service and character are to
nign, and service and character
alone. Such is the meaning of
the life of George Washington
who came into being nearly two
hundred years ago. He left the
world stronger and better. He
left broader and sweeter."

is and how to do it.
In this so-called short passing

the passes do not average more
than eight or ten feet each. ,The

that such a short pass is hard for

him hard. Mrs. Mummey came

ball is passed so often that It is
hard for an opponent to keep track
of it.
In this short pass attack the
men are all rather close together
so that the ball can be passed
from one to another easily. AU
ways try to pass to the man ahead
but If this it not possible the ball
may be passed-back. A game of
this type also develops team play
aud puts the ball up close to tbe
basket so that short, easy shots
may be taken instead ot the long,

I guess you recognize this man
more easily than you did the pic
ture of Caesar which was printed
yesterday. Now, I'm not going
to tell you how George Washing
ton cut down the cherry tree or
how he did a million and one other
things. What I am going to tell Is
a bit of the history of the original
picture from which this drawing
was copied. Gilbert Stuart's por
trait of Washington.
In 1S12 Madison was president
of the United States and Dolly
Madison was his wife. You re
member that tbe United States and
England were having a scrap about
that time and the Knglish troops
invaded Washington, D. C. Every
one left the city in an awful hurry,
including Dolly Madison. Just as
she was getting in the coach to
flefe she remembered about that
picture of Washington, so she
rushed back in the White House,
Wk a little knife, cut the picture
from its frame, rolled it under her
arm aud then got out of the'eity
as fast as ever she could.
Many critics say that this is the
best picture of the great American
statesman and general which was
ever painted.
