HIGHER STANDARDS
.If you are among those who read "The, Little French
Girlf one of the most popular of recent books, or who saw
the screen portrayal of that book, you will perhaps be inter
ested in the f ollowing quotations from the speech of Napoleon
to his soldiers, on entering Milan: 1 - . .
"Soldiers : You have rushed like a torrent
from the top of the Apeniries; you" have over
thrown and scattered aM that opposed your
march. Milan is yours, and the repub
lican flag waves throughout Lombardy. ',
The army which so proudly! threatened you'can:
find no barrier to protect U against your cour
age; neither the Po, the Tacino, nor the Adda
could I stop you for a sinsle dav. These
country with joy.. Your, representatives, have
ordered a festival to commemorate your victor
i. 1es, which has been held in every district of the
.rtb'j republic.-. There your fathers, your; mothers,
' " . your wives, sisters,1 and mistresses rejoiced in
your good fortune and proudly boasted of be
longing to you." :
'A: "She threw the lighted stub of the cigarette she had been
smoking, from an auto out into the dried grass by the road
side near Molalla and rode on. A traffic cop put out the fire
before it reached the nearby woods and grain field. -
i The woman was later arrested for throwing the lighted
cigarette upon the highway. ; .
I I The punishment for this act in this states. is defined in
General Laws of 1925, Section 27, which says "Any person
violating this section (27) shall be deemed guilty of a mis
demeanor, and upon conviction thereof, shall be punished by
a fine of not less than twentv-iive dollars (525) nor more
than seventy-five dollars ($75)"
And anyone, man or woman, who carelessly or negligent
ly during this dry,hot weather starts a fire along the road
side and rides on leaving fire to destroy timber, crops, dwell
ings, homes and possibly human lives, deserves the limit of
nimishment provided bv the law. Such members of the
human family need special guardianship.

that Salem may become the Peta-

thatjtbe silk and poultry indus

and that which would pay . the
small farmer to investigate Its
possibilities, is the silk Industry of
California. The following is tak
en from a late dispatch from Oro

progress In regard to silk culture:
'A million and a half of silkworms
have begun weaving themselves
into; a net of silk: In 3 weeks, if
nothing happens the army of silk
worms will have converted- them

It is reported that the eyes of silk
producers of the world are await
ing the experiment. Silkworms,

well to lose no time In planting a

tal purposes and get in on the
