A FITIING -MEMORIAL
WE MAY USE AND USE IT AND NEVER WASTE IT
Oregon
Shortly before George Washington died the citizens of
Philadelphia tendered him a banquet. On the dinhet- tables
were 2000 candles, which shocked the ober people iof that
city. The cost of keeping them lighted amounted to $10 an
hour. It is estimated that the same amount of light could
ibe furnished today at 20 cents an hour I If
And if that is true as to Philadelphia, the price in
ofrght to be not far from one cent an hour. I

commodity that is ever growing cheaper and cheaper

TKa hirthnlarp of Walter Reed, one of America's scien
tific geniuses, has been discovered at Bel Roi, Virginia. ;
It was Walter Reed the medical scientist wno isolated
the yellow fever germ and identified the species of mosquito
which carried it. Offering himself a sacrifice for the progress
of science and for the health of his fellow men, he bared his
arm to the sting of the insect and died a victim to the result
ing fever. He had proven by his life his theory. ' 4
It was Reed's experiment that made possible the present
Y ealth and progress of Cuba and the Canal Zone, the con
struction of the Panama" Canal and the success of the health
projects in South America. '
Few men have done as much for humanity as did Dr.
Walter Reed through the supreme sacrifice. America should
set aside his birthplace as a fitting memorial to his genius
and sacrifice. T

And all Oregon will be in better Itiine as a result of the
recent musical convention, j '
An Irishman on his way to the
races, was persuaded by three oth

riage to join in a little game of
solo whist. For half an hour he

tonishment., he noticed one of the
players, a tough-lookiqg specimen
who boasted a shade over one eye

I "Look here, gentlemen." .'said
the Irishman, "there's one mem
ber of the party cheating. I don't
wish to cause any animosity, so I
won't mention who it is. but if he
does it again I'll knock his other
eye out."
Mr. Newryrich strutted into a
club to which be had been elected.
He looked around to see if there
was anybody there he knew, and
after a while he discovered a well
known barrister reading by a win
dow. He walked acrope to the bar
rister and held out his band, palm
down. On his third finger glitter
ed a diamond ring he had just
bought.
"Hello, Mr. Briefs," he said,
wiggling his fingers to make the
diamond sparkle. "What would
you do if you hadf that?"
"I'd sell it," said the barrister,
"and buy a nail brush."
One afternoon two visitors rang
the bell; and, telling them to be
seated, Maggie went into another
part of the house to see If her
mistress was in.

PHEASANT FARMING
t
t The law protects pheasants from the farmer's gun. They
are protected except for a short period of the year, from all
classes of hunters. But the farmers are not protected from
the ravages of these birls as j tljey destroy his cjrops. 1 1 He
feeds them and yet has only the same limited privileges that
everyone else has when it is "open season." - I
At present pheasant farms are operated in several parts
of the state. Her the young birds are hatched, reared par
tially and turned loose to increase the' numbers lefi after the
last hunting season was over. ! j j t
I These birds, turned loose from the game farfns which,
by the way, are credited with being among the most verdant
' of the state's political ranges, are said to cost several dollars
apiece for rearing up to their hotir of liberation. 1- J -t
The cdst of pheasant propagation is borne by the hunters
who pay license fees for the privilege of hunting and by the
farmers whose crops these birds help consume. ., ;L T J
f The propagation of game including pheasants is neces
sary in order to save the species from annihilation. As an
investment propagation and conservation of the wild life of
Oregon is important. Game birds and wild animals are of
large economic values for food, or furs and; as an adver
tising asset for the state." Thousands of transients make
Oregon their mecca annually during the-r hunting season,
spending their money freely A3 a result of the presence of
game in our mountains, valleys and on our lakes and streams.
However, the desirability of game propagation does, not
excuse extravagant costs of the same. j - . -
In the face cf the facts above, why cot try this plan?
