IT IS WRONG
The Oregon Statesman does not
Uend to dignify H.' H. Stallard
by seriously going to the bat with

Mr. SUllarda attack on the
Oregon Agricultural college is an
appeal to the bleechers; against a
well played game. The Oregon
Agricultural college is the pride
of the state. 8tlllard takes to
himself too much credit when he
says he knew as much 20 years
ago as the college knows now. He
does not know as much now as the
college did 20 years ago, arid he
never will know as much as It did
20 years ago. He cannot grasp
the idea of scientific, agriculture.

.The case of Abe JEvans, now in

death was pronounced. Had the
story been told sooner it might
have had an effect on the Jury.
Abe dramatically Invited all the

what it ail means. Our idea is

Abe is illiterate, but he has that
social streak, ta him that marks
the good fellow.

THK LESSON OP AUSTRIA
After the war - Austria went td
work. It was In worse condition
than Germany, but it has now re
covered, to such an extent that it
has asked to be released from the
guardianship of the league of na
tions. Had ' Germany done the
same the major part of its trouble

of France, and both Germany and
France are worso off now than
when the war ended.

ators at Silver ton has called forth
great sorrow. It. was so unneces-

was not licensed and only had 17

not spare his life. We must have
efficiency before we have flying. .'

WHT LILLIAN TELEGRAPHED
KATHERINE BICKETT.
' Lillian extended her hand for
Katherine , BIckett's letter, recon
sidered, and lot her hand drop to
her aide again.
. "Please read it to me." she said.
"I .have a beastly headache.".
A; She . gestured i to a low chair,"
and sank back into her own as she

question of providing proper es
pionage for the wounded man in
the hospital was worrying her
more than she had. betrayed to
me." " ' ' ':
- "Of course.". I answered, settled
comfortably into the low chair,
and began to read!
"Dearest Madge." the letter be

to the signature of this and mur
muring: "Katherine Sonnot Bick
ett where have " I . heard that
name?' And I cannot blame you.
for I have been the worst corres
pondent ever in these last few
months. Even now, I have not
the time to write you the long let
ter which is your due, and which
I long to pen. But I must tell you
our news.. .
"You, know, of course, how long
it has taken Jack to recover his
health, shattered in the war. I
do nbt think he is fully recovered
yet, but perhaps I am too femin
inely fearful, as he puts it. At any
rate, he has a wonderful chance
in South America, but it is on a
job where he cannot possibly take
me. Of course, his idea is for me
to stay safely here in our home
until he comes back, months, per
haps a year from now. But you
know that is something I could
not possibly do. I should go stark
mad with inaction.
Lillian Has An Idea."
"So, when Jack has. gone, I am
going to take, up my old profes
sion again in a neighboring city,
near enough for. me to see to our
little home. But I am saying noth
ing to him about It, for. perhaps
you remember his attitude, to
ward wives working" for an in
come. So please do not mention
my decision when yod 'Write,, al

has gone, for he leaves within the
week. ; ': J 'V .

') Lillian was sitting bolt upright
long before I had finished. As
the last words came from my lips
she drew a sibilant breath.
?" Was ever anything more di
rectly an. intervention of Provi
dence?" , she asked. "The - next
thing Is to get Katherine here as
quickly as possible. When is that
letter dated?
I turned quickly to the heading:
"Three days ago."
Lillian mused an instant.
"Will That Do?"
" "She said Jack was going 'with
in the, week.' That leaves four
days at the longest. Too . long!
Katherine must know that we
want her, and be preparing to
come on, so she can start as soon
as he does. There's no other way,
Madge. You've got to 'go into a
decline.' Isn't that what our
grandmothers called it? Then
Jack, dear, will have hia scruples
appeased."
There was the faintest tinge in
her tone of something which I had
remarked in the days before Jack
and Katherine were married an
almost contemptuous disapproval
Of my brother-cousin, which she
generally succeeded in concealing
from me. But whenever her sec
ret aversion did betray itself, I
always ignored it carefully.
"I'll agree to contract anything
from.TfcB. to heart failure," I said
lightly. "But you'll have to give
me the details."
: j "Easy," she declared succinctly,
the light of creation in her eyes.
"Just hand 'me that portfolio be
side you, will you please?"
I gave her the worn leather case
which holds Lillian's most import
ant, papers, and she drew from it
a package of -telegraph blanks,
improvised a desk from a thiek
thagatineTtand set to ' work upon
the message she wished to send.
As I watched her I whimsically
reflected upon the elaborate writing-case
which an admiring friend
had once presented to her, and
which " she 1 had conscientiously
tried to: use tor a week. Then she
bad read . the riot act, ana naa
gone hack to her magazines.
"There!' she said at last, nana-
itfg" me the result of her concen
tration. "Will that do?"
"Madgo in serious nervous con-
ditionV I read. "Needs loving
yet professional care. In view 01
your husband s absence, couto you

ative-we know your decision im
mediately. If you decide affirma
tive, please plan start day of hus
band's departure if possible.
Madge most anxious to see- you.

I smiled at her with rueful
amusement. "I think that ougnt
to turn the trick," I said.

Snoppyquop
You-have probably all heard how tit. Fame arove tne snakes
out of Ireland many hundreds of years agof." Lonbef of e f . Patrick;
there was another worthy man named St. Snoppy McQuop who tried
the same stunt only in a. different ways Being a Snbppy,fhe had a
trick nose. St. Snop resolved to get the troublesome snakes out. of
h'.s-Tiative land, and thought that
the Pied Piper led; the rats out of Hamelin, .would be better, than
driving them out. So he stuck his shillalah under ;ls wing. struck up
some snakey muafc on his nose, and marched fto the south of Ireland.
The snakes followed the Saint, but the unusuar-werght. of theiaint
and all these snakes was too much for the - little Island,' and -the
southern end sank beneath the sea, while the northern end went up
ito the air. and so they all slid off into the ; water. "Even; .Cork
won' float In this country," said St. Snop. .
Correct this sentence: "The
roBes." repeated the husband;
"why. have you forgotten that
this is our fourteenth anniver
sary " -
Some small towns have garbage
cans in which to keep trash, and
others ran afford a library.
There is hope for a people so
long as it has enough respect for
law to wutch the traffic signals.

the degree of his wrath when a
