While he's here, it would be a shame not to utilize his services. . ' lThis man is none other than Oswald West, .former gov ernor of Oregon, now an active at the legislature. Not so moving spirit in an ambitious undertaking for the reclama tion of a large tract of arid land in central Oregon. For this purpose his company had obtained storage rights on the De schutes river above Bend, and had constructed a test dam to determine the feasibility of impounding water under these rights. The test was a success, and many thousands of acre feet of water were held back; No steps toward utilization of the water on the land had been commenced. Hien there came a year of comparative water shortage, and existing irrigation- projects and power companies were in serious straits. ' v..,-;-. Os, turn loose your water," was the plea; and "Os" obligingly opened the dam gates and sent his impounded water coursing down -the Deschutes, Oh, what a terrible stench arose. The city of Bend, served by a privately owned water company, took its supply from the riven - "Beiid People Forced to headlines of a transitory but its readers drank in the words, but not the water if they could find anything to take its place. The fact is that Bend's water supply was just like Salem's has been in recent weeks. only three times as bad, and the reason was the same ; micro scopic algae which had flourished in Os West's reservoir. If s a long story, one which ramifies into the realms of city pontics, and state politics as represented by the 1925 legislative session, but the upshot of it was that Bend bought some questionable water rights and sought to trade them for clear, sparkling water from Tumalo creek liquid identical with that which has rested in a jug on the desk of Speaker Hamilton in the house this session. This step embroiled the city in controversy with the irrigation district which owned the Tumalo creek water originally. Bend finally paid dearly for the rights, built a $400,000 gravity system, and piped the dear; sparkling water into town. j j j : . ' ! The water company had built a huge filtration system to filter out the algea, but the taste wouldn t So when tern, it paid for the filtration rates. But "Os started the whole tiling by opening the gates of his reservoir, and maybe he knows some way to solve Sa lem's -mater problem just as effectively. i Labor Deserts Soap Boxers CLARENCE D ARROW, Chicago lawyer, has always been Kj the rhftmjripw of the underdog. He has always taken the side of the downtrodden laboring man and often lent valiant service toward rectifvinsr their wronsrs, He now firyfa his services less in demand in this connection than he focmerry did. j There has been a strike at an underwear knitting plant in Kenosha, Wisconsin, and Mr. Darrow went up to bolster up the cause of the strikers. He had a poor turn-out. The Chicago Tribune quoted Mr. Darrow as making the follow ing remarks; Twenty-f ive years ago this big haH would not hold every one who would want to hear the complaint of la bor such as is being voiced tonight. Here we have just a Email group. But what can you expect? The laboring man is home tonight reading the stock market reports. . "Prosperity is hurting the labor movement.

If the senate concurs in this foolishness we may then expect teachers to conduct classes in "character. "Attention, children. Now we shall have 15 minutes in cteiracier building," the school teacher will say, After that we can't guess what she can say. It would be a sort of warmed-over Sunday School lesson without any picture cards or merit badges, . , There are plenty of ways and opportunities to teach character, in school without measuring it out in daily or week ly medicinal doses. Moreover, the theory of legislative cur . nculum building is wrong. Even school boards do not try to prepare courses of study for the schools. They leave such things to the professional educators subject to the approval of the hoards. The statute books are cluttered up enough now with prescriptions as to, what to teach and how much to teach of special subjects. Every one with a pet hobby was to get it into the school course. The shortest way is by having a leg islature cram it down the throats of teachers and pupils. The senate ought to torn down this house bill on char acter teaching. It would show little "character" of its own if it did. , - - " ' Battle of the Millions 10LONEL ROBERT W.

(KOW OO ON WITH THE BTORXJ CHAPTER XXXIX GEORGE ceased to come to see Betty in the evenin, and al though he purchased a small car, had oniy once " a drive. He was so completely ab sorbed In his business it was al most impossible to talk to him on any other subject. The red-haired waitress, aiary Roberts, was always near nun. Betty thought she was either in love with George or the business, and was trying to marry George to get it. Whenever George came to the desk and started a conver sation with Betty, the red-headed girl would find some matter of business which would either take him away or at least divert his at tention. Betty watched this comedy with amused eyes. So long as she had her position, and knew she was making good at It, she was willing the girl should marry George If ho liked. Marrying George was, to Betty, a duty she would be glad to shirk, if it was possible. George a restaurant was not pa tronised by the Jaxz crowd Betty knew In t he night club where she had danced. With the single excep tion of the dancer from the Iron Door, she had seen none of them. She was made aware that some of them had seen her. One young man whom she had learned was Mr. Thomas, ate his dinners in the restaurant regular ly. She had seen him often enough to exchange a casual word now and then. One night ho dawdled late over his dinner until he saw Betty begin to balance the cash register for the night, and then hurried over, apologizing for keeping her. "It is quite all right." said Bet ty, agreeably. "I can balance and leave the last two or three checks on tomorrow's business. I often have to do that." 1 "But I delayed you." He spoke contritely. "I have my car at the door. If you want me to believe I am forgiven, let me drive you home." "Oh, I wouldn't think of troub ling you Mr. Thomas." "It s not a trouble but a pleas ure, if you don't think I'm impu dent or fresh. "No, I hadn't thought anything of the kind. If you really want to wait a moment I wll lbe glad to have you drive me home." "Fine. I'll wait out front and smoke till you come. I'll honk the horn when I see you come out." Betty had not been in the sod sty of any young man except George, since she came out of the hospital, and enjoyed hurrying to meet this one. He was not, appar cnuy, tne type wno picked up -s, .

Betty was glad of the lift home, as she was tired, r When she reached the door of the restaurant she looked arounu. The gentle sound of an automobile horn a few steps up the street called her. As she came to the car he got out to help her. The limp did not show as she stepped Into the car. Suddenly it occurred to her he did not know she was lame. "Must we go right home?! he asked. ' "I have nothing to do - and am tired as I can be. but I'd love to ride for a little if I'm not taking you out of your way." "Can't imagine anything that would make me happier," he ans wered. "IH go down by the rirer; maybe we can find a breese there." The river road It was Andy's favorite drive. They had driven and parked along it so many times. Betty was embarrassed, remem bering the kisses she had had from Andy there. "Please," she said "let's not go there! Drive in some other direction, if you don't mind." "With you beside me I don't care where I drive!" he laughed. He turned the car and headed out into the country. Out of the city he took off his hat and tossed it Into the rear seat Betty did the same thing, let ting her auburn hair fly in the breeze which came through the open windshield. The car sped along a country road, Betty en joying it immensely. Suddenly they passed another speeding car. Instantly there came back to her the night she and Andy had crashed his ear under the .same circumstances. S h e crouched against the driver, and with diffi culty restrained herself from clutching his arm. "What's the matter?" he ask ed, "Afraid?" "I was In an automobile acci dent which happened when we passed another car. That was the first time since then that I had driven past another car at any speed;" "Were you hurt?" he asked, In terested. ' "Both my legs were thrown out of joint at the knee. One is stiff yet," she explained. "Was that what made you stop dancing?" he asked. "Dancing?" How did you know I ever danced?" "I saw you several times at the Iron Door. I always wanted to know you. I didn't say anything about it at the restaurant because I didn't know if Old Sobersides knew you used .to be a sport!" "I wasn't a sport!" I danced to make a living, like a lot of other girls." "I suppose you supported an In valid mother, too!" He laughed unbelievingly. lf . a. a a oay momer ana lather are both dead." "I believe that is the variation or the time-honored story.

"I have no ast in the sense you mean." Betty defended herself stoutly. "Let's talk about some thing else." "Oh, rery well. Very well!" he laughed again. "I make it a prac tice to follow the lady's lead. You ean ride with me without having to walk back. I don't want you to think you are putting anything over on me.
