IN OTHER THAN NUMBERS "The Oregon state prison cost per capita has been reduced, there being economy in numbers, so to speak." i J l i The above is an editorial paragraph in the Oregonian of yesterday. The economy is not all in numbers,' by any means. It is mostly in management and in vision in this case. Governor Pierce told the ways and means committee of the last Legislature thatif they would make the maintenance appro priation? $100,000 less for tlie current two years .than for the years 1921 and 1922, and p!it the $100,000 into the revolving fund to; establish the flax industry and other industries at the prison, he thought they would keep. within the appropriation - V And this has been done.! That is, the maintenance cost at the end pf the present month will show for the current two years a saving of the $100,000 ( k 1 : And it will show that the $100,000 has established the flax industry, which is now beginning to function; as t should, not withstanding an awful setback in a destructive f jre. The water power development, paid for out of the revolving fund, is now showing a saving of over $5000 a year; providing the power for the lights and the industries of the institution. This is Wer 5 per cent saving on the $100,000, and the saving will increase with the growth of the industries and the institu tion. It; will be there for all time. : T . 'And the flax industry will, after the payment of the next crop from the growers, begin to turn back money into the main tenance ifund, unless it shall te used for purchase of further machinery and equipment ',": ( ; I. Andi in , due course, if there! shall be.no turning back; if the institution just keeps on. keeping on as it is now doing, it will be rendered entirely self supporting; and that within the next few: years. '- 1 I- " ' It is. not numbers; it is vision and management.. J (Though the average number of prisoners has been a good deal, higher in the current two year period than in the bicnnium before.) . . I ! i f MARION'S CHILDREN ! 1 -I - . ' ! : . ...... ! (Portland-Journal.) . T The nation-wide American Child Health association has chosen 3 Tar Ion county, Oregon, for its fourth child health demonstration. Tfce demonstration will cover five years. It will be directed by the child health demonstration committee of the association". ' ' "" Communities in 11 Western states have been competing' for the honor since it was announced last April that it was the' purpose to select a far western community. I We talk about the hundreds of millions which express the value of Oregon crops.- But the children are the most Important crop we produce. ; Their value is above all else. Their health is of paramount significance to all that we hope for realization in years to come. ' ' The opportunity in Oregon for children to be red-lipped and pink cheeked, active, happy and strong, is unsurpassed. Oregon children ft to have: all outdoors to play In are as much In contrast as possible with the pale and anemic little 'folks who make their shaded and uncertain: growth in the tenements and the crowded cities. .Oregon children have the best chance for health, physical, mental, and moral. ' ALIBIS AND (Charlie Pivot, in Bridgeton, N. J., News.) The Democratic National Committee ' is' understood to have held a stewed crow dinner last evening at the organization's 'club house on Salt River. Alibi Ike, chairman of the Grievance committee, was the principal orator and five microphones carried his touching words Into the homes of Democrats generally. "Geatlemen of the Democracy," Mr. Ike said, "we have been undone. We are victims of 'Coolldge Luck The Washington Ameri can League team won the league pennant and the world's champion ship and the President attended the games and got so much publicity that the ejection was turned around on its axis. Then, too. our dear party 'blundered terribly. Mr,-Davis selected that absolutely useless squirrel 'Charlie Bryan for his running mate and that cost us 3.658,902 votes. : Chief Cook Walsh let the .'teapot' boil over and that made such a smell that most of the guests left the dining room of what we thought was our most attractive hotel. , "La Pollette double-crossed us. He promised to take a lot of votes from the Republicans for our benefit and instead he took them from our party. He was a great big bluff and didnt carry out his promise to throw the election into Congress. I suggest that we cancel his associate membership in our party and ask him to return his door key. ' . - . f . - - : .- : j . 'And whoever selected this barber, 'Clem Shaver, should be taken off the nominating committee for life. He hasn't found out yet what it Is all about. He lost West Virginia and Bryan lost Nebraska and Instead of having any new states we lost a couple of old ones. "Gentlemen, I suggest that four years from now we hold our rational convention on Chincoteague Island and that we all talk a little lower. Somebody overheard what we said at Madison Square Garden, about the Klan, the League of Nations, about McAdoo and Smith and they told on us. That cost as Just 2,805,743 votes that I know of. And this guy McAdoo, iwho started all the fuss, next went to Europe and then got sick and he never even mended the stuff he broke. : :"j - j. . "I regret the necessity of calling your attention to these little eccentricities among our membership but somebody has to explain why, we were so unmercifully licked and why Davis polled 1,000,000 leys" than Cox did four years agd, despite the greatly Increased vote. The rest of my committee on grievances are still out canvassing the complaints and they will make a full report at the next meeting which will be on April 1, 1925, at Louisville, Kentucky. I thank you!" WILL BE LET ALONE While it Is hardly true to say that Governor Pierce has triumph ed. It la literally true to say that the good sense of the republicans has prevailed and the dehorning of the governor ,has been indefin itely postponed. : The last propo sition was the most foolish of all; virtually it amounted to having the legislature make the appoint mrnts. It was received even worse than the. previous one. The fact ij. that the republicans of Oregon are rarlicularly sensible and fair- nluded. ; They don't ; want any foolish business or any sharp po litical practices. if Governor T: rce proposes anything good the : . , L'.ican party can cot afford to i - it dawn. If he proposes any- " ' ' ft r-Ti not afford to en THINGS act It. The convening of a legis lature really ought to be a signal for sinking partisanship into state welfare. If this Us done Oregon can get legislation that it needs, and not be the victim of the mis guided judgment of Its leaders. THE WORLD OP AMITY - .A peace prize 'of $23,000 has just been awarded to Dr. David Starr Jordan, who has been a peace advocate for many years. Dr. Jordan's panacea does not have to be enacted by congress or referred to the people. It Is Just a plan. v--;- v p . ' Dr. Jordan in : his plan recom mends that "the world federation make intensive stndyj of certain matters pertinent to- world amity tironr!i the cont'rT'na orratfon of appropriate committees on: ed ucation, for peace, these to report at stated meetings of the feder ation and to the various national organizations, corresponding h to and , Including our own national educational associations, indicat ing at the same time lines of ac tion ' likely to contribute toward international concord. "Meanwhile, one . must admit that any specified procedure can be at best only a step toward the development of enlightened pubRc opinion and co-operation in effect ing mutual understanding among people." " : - A GOOD PLAN The Statesman .desires to. com pliment the Central Congregation al church, and especially the Hub class of that church, for its en terprise in undertaking to . foster and -further a community club in the neighborhood of the Richmond school. We need to know each other better in neighborhoods. It is a shame for us to live for "years and not know the people in the next block. If we know each other, know our neighborhood and know our vicinity jwe are better citizens and we enjoy life more. Men are naturally social beings. They dislike to go along .the street and never know anybody and the larger city they get in the more this practice grows; ' There were 200. people present at the meeting 'sponsored by the Hub class."" That means 200 peo ple brought in closer contact,' in personal relationship in a way that will better the lives ' of every one of them.'. MASTERING THE COLD Down at Corvallia the Oregon Agricultural college which has been functioning for the good of the state for some years, has. hit upon something new which is best of all. It is a fact that Oregon is a great -state for colds. That must be on account of the rainy season. A machine has just been installed, there which' cures colds In one day. It is a gas machine; and why not? A cold is a germ, and if anything kills that germ, the cold is gone. It looks entire ly feasible to us, and it would be a great contribution to Oregon It it actually does work. We have more colds than all other diseases put together. The matter of in jecting the gas is a detail that is not interesting.! at this .timet. The great- Question. Jsi "Can; colds toe cured in one day?" f v; NAGGING WIVES ' A man In Ohio killed his wife with a cleaver and was sentenced to be hanged. The governor jot the t state listened to mitigating circumstances and learned - that the woman was a. persistent. nag ger. He reprieved the man and sentenced him for life. Nagging has broken up more homes than all other causes com bined. Nagging is like a porcu pine. It is always ready-to shoot, never restful, never 'failing, rit is prickly, all the time and hurts to an amazing degree so that homes all over the world are broken up by a nagging wife or nagging husband, as the case may be.'.;.' :J-:,-w . I THE GERMAN ELECTION Contrary to what ! was feared. the German people have held an election that was : carried for the republican ' form - of government. Germany has had seven big par ties and 15 minor parties, but -the result of this election ! has been to clarify the atmosphere and they will only have two parties ulti mately. That will mean that the German' government, can. be re sponsible directly to the people and not to factional, leaders. Ger many Is to be congratulated on its good sense in standing loyally by the Dawes report and ; the prin ciples of the republic. GENE STRATTOX PORTER Mrs. Porter, whose tragic death occurred in Los Angeles Satur day, may not have been pur great est writer but she occupied a field of. her own, and her books, 15 in number, are wonderfully interest ing and instructive. ' It 4s not pos sible to read her books without coming to love nature and. coming to appreciate how much w e can get from nature if we apply our selves. Mrs. Porter's writing was wholesome, entirely ; free from nauseating suggestiveness and dis gusting, detail. She was clean In every way and her death Is a great loss to the world. Longview has been painted as a model town, a sort of "Little Lord Pauntleroy.' ' and yet in ; its re cent mayoralty election It is charged with irregularities the same as a rough-neck town might be. .- , . i J . -. . .. . - The railroads say that all they want is to be let' alone.

CHAPTER 329 WHAT ALLEN DRAKE INSISTED , ON DOING FOR MADGE With my eyes and mouth filled with dust, with aching bones and sore muscles, I lay for a dazed sec ond or two in the roadway to which I had tumbled. Then as I tried to scramble to my feet I was conscious of ji strong arm helping me, and Allen Drake's voice min gled with the sound of a starting motor in my ears. , "Good stunt, Chester! Smith was in that car, eh?. Good God! Madge Mrs. Graham what does this mean?" ; The racing car which I had thought was not at the rendezvous had crept out from the side of the road where it had been hidden, and its suddenly-turned-on' lights evidently had betrayed my iden tity to Mr. Drake." I tried to brush the dust from my eyes and mouth, then I felt Mr, Drake's supporting arm around my shoulders, and a big linen handkerchief performing that service for me. With a sud den . realization of the need for baste, I drew myself away and spoke quickly, imperatively. "Never mind me! Smith and two others are in that car on the way to New York. Tom Chester collapsed, and I jumped onto the back of the car and came through. I must hurry, back, and please speed after them." From the opposite side of the road came the putt-putt of a mo torcycle starting. Mr. Drake spoke to some one invisible to me. "Tell him to trail the limousine until we catch up to him. If they take any other than the regular road he is to put the sign we agreed upon in the middle of the road. You stay here until I come back." With a compelling hand upon my arm he drew me to his car, put me into the seat, jumped into the driver's seat and turned the car into the wood road. 1 Allen Drake Explains "Oh!" I gasped. "You must not you may lose him!" , "And we 11 certainly lose you if I don't take you back," he said masterly. "You plucky little idiot, suppose you had been killed? Are you sure you're not hurt?" He was sending the slender rac ing car along the winding narrow road at a pace far exceeding that whlchthe big limousine had taken. and I realized that while he had interrupted his task to conduct me back to safety, he was losing no time about it. "Not a bit." I said stoutly, al though it seemed as though every bone and muscle I possessed cried the lie to my assertion. "And I would have walked back safely. If you lose Smith because of bringing me back " "Don't worry about that." he interrupted. . "I promise you Mr. smitn shan't be lost. J shall not be gone ten minutes at' the out side, and that driver and this mo tor can make up ten minutes on any heavy car ever made. And don't forget the motorcycle. Be sidest when they near the city we have a dozen schemes for delays ing them which are already in readiness, waiting only a . long distance phone call. Satisfied. Simon Legree?" His voice was as insouciant as if he were driving me home from a dance, and I tried to meet his mood. After all. - I said to my self, the whole affair from now on was strictly his business, not mine. The only service I could do him was to keep from hinder ing him. Right in Here" "Perfectly satisfied." I retorted after a minute's silence, "and thank you very kindly for your escort." ....... "And a pleasant evening, don't forget' that." he gibed. "How much farther does this road wind?" "We're nearly at the end of it," I said encouraging. "Where did you leave young Chester?" ' "A few yards beyond the end of this road. Here we are. Turn to the right. Now Just beyond that next turn." We rounded the curve, and he drew up the car at the little glade,' jumped out and helped me to alight. I tried hard to conceal the stiffness ot my muscles, but if It had not been for his supporting hand I think I should have igno minously fallen.
