COUNTING THE HOURS If you want to know whether or hot'a boy is going- to1 be lui cessful In the world, take anl ac count of his hours. ' The 'ones vitally important are the ones be tween the evening meal and feed time: How are they spent? ijl l It may seem trivial to empha sise the hours between the evening meal and bedtime, but they afford an opportunity for fan education. The boy. who fails to take the' op portunity, who fritters awayjf his tima iike a;butterfly, is the boy who will dance attendance always and nver have attendants. -The :.,f worth while ia the world!? are themselves forA leadership ,!n the word i e .; I, . i Benjamin Franklin, who under stood the value of time as few men do, once said : ' "Dost " thou love fife? Then do not squander time, for that: is the stuff life Is wade I of.? .In .a -recent ' riw Bradsitreet says most failures come because they allow the scrap heap to ge too big. Waste, waste, dis astrous waste, but the worst waste of , alf is to waste time. ' Unused hours: form a scrap heap that has wrecked the career of many .&. man. The waste of time which so many! y0BK men. dump in after the evening meaL.lt rightly used. would give priceless results In in creased ; efficiency,- better service and better pay. It is easy to take the heap of waste time and manu facture It into ambiUon,' resolu tion effort, purpose, persistency. confidence, courage, mental equip ment and all the things that spell success. ' Many men, are ayoing this, and millions could do it with profit. Any man who will pay the price caa master, himself and mas ter the world i : J i : ; j Of course many highly educated people are inefficient and imprac tical and many efficient people are hot highly educated. The world is eallng loudly for educated peo ple who are efficient, and efficient people who are educated. Educa tion js really for efficiency and for service. Education is not so much learning what we do not know as the doing of what we do not novao.:.'.;; ;- 1. : I L i : B. C.1 Forbes 'saysV "Tell I me how a young man spends his eve ninsfand I will tell you how far he is apt to go In the world." There is a popular notion that suc cess for failure depends upon a man's working hours; only partly. It depends a good deal more upon how- he uses his leisure what he does I outside of working hours. If he spends it badly, he cannot hopeto hold his job. If he spends It in harmless .idleness, he may hold j his job,: but that Is the best he can do. If he diligently util izes! his time to equip himself for mora responsible duties, the great er responsibilities will come and with! them greater rewards. It Ms a mistaken' idea that em ployers promote. Promotions are withl each Individual. Every em ployer likes to advance his em ployes, but sometimes they will not permit him to do so. -.:.-.;..i ..... . ! - ;aij ALIKE r i Ah Indian agent over in eastern Oregon says that what the ' Indi ana need is more work and less debts. Good ' gracious alive, that Is the trouble v with everybody everywhere, f Mighty few people kill i themselves , with work. They do kill themselves with worry. h Debts make a lot of men and uninake a tot more. The man who' masters his debts gets some where, but the man whose debts master ' him" is' always in trouble. We need as a nation to work more and use the tonic of thrift. ' We need that as individuals, as com munities, school districts, muni cipalities and everything else. We also need It In our legislation. The fact is the whole world is so stag nated in debts that it is Impossible to conceive It. Some of these days we are going: to take our bearings and quit going Into debt reckless ly, especially in a public way. f . The . Indians in eastern Oregon majr have gone into debt, but we have an Idea they , ere pikers in comparison with the debt contract ing! proclivities o the "white race. A mountain of Indebtedness hangs. over the world and there Is but on way to lower it -by thrift and industry, by saving, and self-denial. Repudiation Is an. ngly word, too often repeated.' It is not to be countenanced. It would be In finitely more detrimentaf to ' the moral fiber of the repudlator than to the material welfare ot the vic tims of repudiation. It Is a. wrong and vicious spirit to turn loose !ai the world ; in : some respects more demoralising then war. HOOTER'8 OPTI3IIS3I - The New Year's pronouncement of Herbert Hoover is characteris tic of the maa. . He is never a pessimist but his optimism is tem pered with conditions.' Heias let it jgo now almost unbridled. He believes theTyear 1925 will be a record breaker for prosperity and everything Indicates it. v tn 1896 McKlnley was heralded as the advance agent of prosperity! Events proved the correctness of the advance notices It4 might with equal truth be said that Cool idge is also the advance" agent of prosperity. This will he demon strated. . , The -world is coming-' In for an era of prosperity. It la to be hoped that it will also be an era f debt paying, of liquidation. , We are getting so enormously ia debt that there must be payments. The government Is doingr exceedingly well, but the state," nd he county. A GOOD SHOWING : t Eight sons . and daughters of Oregon newspaper men ! and . a Washington. 'neT7spaper man's daughter are taking the jdurnalis tic course In the university at Eu gene. Thia Is a great testimony to the increased respectability and financial rewards that come from (....,... , t the newspaper business. - , It used to be that a man in the i newspaper , business , would .want his children tti do anything 'else raiher than follow ln? his footr steps. ' The profession iWasj ao poorly paid that there was no "in ducemett for a. man to want his children to follow it J I - ' k The newspaper business: has ar rived, and despite the Jadt, that It Is continually fighting to , keep from beins choked to death by the politicians, ' it manages to "make progress 'every Tear. .?' -1 :' A KEEN BUSINESS MAN, We notice In all the lobltuary notices of rthe late S.1 Jackson of the Portland Journal that It Is emphasized , that he ? wasj a keen business man. He was peculiarly eccentric in. many ways but never lost sight of the money tilL He ran his business as a bank would be run. Every detail was guard ed, and every leak stopped up. He made a great success. There used to be en idea that the newspaper business ws hardly a business at all. It was a pre carious method of livelihood. That has been ' changed,' and tie news paper today js one i of the most outstanding business .institutions we have. i I ,' '. . INCREASING THE TARIFF; An effort is being made to re- arrange the -. tariff commission, Mr. Culbertson and Mr., Lewis are the stumbling blocks in the way of Increased tariff . for? certain necessary articles and cropsw Ore- gon Is vitally concerned about this because we must ' have Increased protection for our cherries. " The same is true of every state in the northwest. The commission has been deadlocked with ; tie result that everything is at a standstill. It is understood that President Coolidge is tryins: to find places for these two men. - f' The late. Samuel Gompers was fervently American " and Dro-aily durlne the war. Since bis death things have . developed f to - show; probably why he had suf fervor.' He. wm offered millions . If, he would call strikes preventing the Americans delivering arms to the allies. Instead of tempting : him. this aroused his spirit nd , made him more determined thin evex to be a 100 per cent 'American, v ' ; t OVERDOING 'i The proposition to have a C-cent gasoline! tax In Oregon is wrongs. The 3-cent tax Is mighty high. ''If It is raised, one cent is the highest it ought to be raised, and then the license fee should bej cut down. It is about four times' too high in Oregon.' : ' f ' .

' Could it be possible that she had seen something in the paper which concerned me, and which she was trying to keep from jjne? The idea was eminently absurd, but it persisted, as ridiculous no tions .will, and I determined that before I went down! to the TIcer cider-makihg I would see I the newspapers which Lillian had just carried upstairs. jf j j She had said that; she meant to take them to my inother-ih-law.
