Get one who knows nothing, as said nothing, doesn't read the newspapers, and is perfect ly willing to serve for $3.00 a day. For a judge in order to be approved by the senate a man will need to be a briefless law yer and an opinionless judge. Then he will get the senate okay and be in position to render jellyfish decisions. An Effective Worker Passes OREGON loses a real worker for its sound development in the passing of N. C. Jamison, state college extension specialist in dairying. For nearly ten years he has been con nected with the college and has become known to dairymen all over the state. He was very capable in his line, and made important contributions in the upbuilding of the Oregon dairy industry. His work with cow testing as ciations and with individual dairymen won him the high regard of prac tical dairymen in Oregon. Jamison dealt with facts and fig ures, not with promotion and fancy. His loss will be keenly felt in this important branch of Oregon industry. They must serve It raw over the river. This is what the Sheridan Bun has to say about a recent raid by Yamhill officers: "It is commendable that county officials have wakened up to the fact that bootlegging is unlawful in this section of the United States. The flagrant violation reported concerning the Bellevue danc ers Is on a par with the carryings on In Sheridan and other places In Yamhill county. Drinking has been largely open, notorious and flagrant in defiance of law and order. So far had it gone that at Bel levue it was served out of an ordinary pitcher without any semblanee f secrecy. Even the officers got wise." RalDh Budd thinks the merger of the Great Northern and North ern Pacific is rather doubtful. So do we. These roads realize full well the value of the Burlington connection. Both roads now own the Burlington, and thus control the vast tonnage which the Burlington originates and turns over to the northern lines at the Twin Cities and at Billings. The stockholders of the roads will be reluctant to exchange this known value for the rather uncertain and intangible benefits of the merger. The state commander of the American Legion makes a hasty re treat before the angry looks of the embattled War Mothers.

Nfcw has been announced thai under the direction, oCthal q I H, ox q. School Qf Den tal and, Oral ur.y, a three-rear psor gram, ot re search. In tooth. decay and dis eases of the teeth has been undertaken. . . There Is. to he a co-operative program, of the; Columbia Dental School with a research group at Tate, under the direction of the Rockefeller Foundation, and with other research workers la this country and Europe. It H hoped that far-reachfng results will be obtained In seeking the causes ot diseases of the teeth, and tooth decay. Fox many years the dental and medical professions have recog nized the fact that dental diaeaa es, each, as, pyorrhea and dental dcay, have their origin in. faults ot nutrition and diseases ot the system. The old theory was that decay ot the teeth, was due aJooe to the acid films which form on the teeth by fesmentatlon of food particles. But many persons were found to be possessed of teeth which never decayed even though, these persons never used a tooth brush. Others brush their teeth often and have tooth decay. It Is to be hoped that such a study will bring a discovery of a means to prevent these defects. Tooth decay and pyorrhea are al most as prevalent today as the common cold. Think ef the thou sands who would be benefited In health by the possession of sound teeth. From earliest childhood care of the teeth is most important. In fant feeding and continued watch ful eare of the diet of the growing child are essential for strong teeth in later life. It Is very necessary to know something about the nutritive value of foods in arranging the family diet. It has a direct bear ing upon strong bones and sound teeth. To a great extent, dental decay can be avoided by keeping the teeth clean. They should be brushed night and morning with a stiff brush. Food must not be al lowed to collect between them. These spaces afford lodging places for food and for bacteria to develop. Use a quill toothpick or dental floss to remove food par ticles from between the teeth. A good antiseptic mouth wash Is ex cellent, bnt warm water and salt make a very good mouth wash. Diseased teeth and broken teeth are the common causa of infections in the system and such infections may bring on degener ative diseases, with undermining of the general health. By regular visits to a denJst once or twice a year disease and decay of the teeth and gums are preventable la our great cities are splendid hospitals and clinics where the teeth of the poor are attended to tree of charge. There Is scarcely anyone who cannot hare treat ment of the teeth. Yesterdays ...

"Yes, sure. To do her part in the rehearsal, yon know. What seems to be the matter with you? He looked at Rod with a pus sled expression. "Pollv hasn't been here." Sayre said, "since she went away with you after tea. Emily isnt here, either." "Where are they?" Pennington demanded, as if the other had them concealed somewhere. I don't know, Pennington, rm Bure. And I wouldn't say it to the others, but well, I'm a little anxious." "Anxious about what? I don't get It. But what is to be done, anyhow? Surely, there's the wed ding! Why are yon In here? And Where's Emily?- Hi tell you all I know. And. of course, everything Is all right. You aee some friend of Emily's Is oTer at the hospital saving a baby." Yes, I know, Kitty Laurence." That's the one. Well, the child arrived and nothing would do but Emily must fly over ts kiss the youngster for luek." Oh. that's It." and Penning ton drew a sigh dstrelief. "That's where Polly Is then. They're lost to the world cuddling the baby." Pennington stopped suddenly. remembering how Pauline was affected by children. 'Ton see. old man." he went on in a lower tone, "our own kid dy died soon after its birth and Polly never got over It. if she sees or touches a little child she's nervously upset for many days afterward. Yet she can't keep away from them, and if she and Emily "are over there with Kitty Laurence's new baby well. I'd better go over and take Polly home, that's all." Sayre looked at the nervouslr working face and deemed It bet ter to offer no word of sympathy or consolation. He knew vaguely of this tragedy In the Penning ton's life, bat ho didst feel suf ficiently acquainted with the man to talk of it, nor was this the op portunity for the laughing crowd mtgnt come in at any minute. u you do go over there.

But we're not sura they're there." "Bound to he, Sayre. Guess I'll go along over." "Just telephone first, will yeu? Pd do It myself only I don't want to get up." . Pennington looked at th oth er quizzically. "Do you mean to say you take her orders' as literally as thst?' . "Why not?

He rose and started tor the hall, the ether side of which was the drawing-room. . "Telephone first, Penn, there's a good cusp." taU right. X mOV Pausing at the telephone booth la the hail. Pennington called an the . hospital It took, some tlmej co get too wawwea wasar yet to obtain speech with Nurse Gjabam, who was la charge of Mrs. Laurence. But at last Pennington's ques tions were answered. Instead of going to the drawing room to se the spectacle of Black Pearl as a bride, Pennington re traced his steps to the lounge where Sayre still sat on the sofa. "Neither Emily nor Polly has been at the hospital at all," he said, with a bewildered look on his face as he sat down beside Sayre. "What?" "The nurse told me. She said that Emily telephoned and said she would be right over, but she never appeared. Of Polly she has heard nothing." "Where's Emily?" said Rodney Sayre, a look ot awful fear com ing Into his eyes. Pennington smiled at Rodney Sayre 's alarmed expression. "Don't worry," he advised. "I don't know Emily as you do, but I do know her in some ways that perhaps you don't. You see, my and my wife are very Intimate friends oh they're real chums. And the crazy schemes those two girls can cook up would knock you silly. Why. last year they went down to Atlantic City for a week, and Emily pretended she was married, and Polly pretended she wasn't. They just changed names. And the tangle it made." "Did Emily really do that?" "Yes, but don't take it too ser riously. Shell tell you all about It." 'Of course she will. She's wild and wilful, but she's honest and truthful at heart." "You bet she is. So's Polly but somehow the two of them seem possessed to cut up when they're together." Sayre who lived in New York had known Polly less than a year, and during that time he had been abroad on business for several months. Their courtship had been a whirlwind affair, but they were both sure of themselves and their love and confidence in one anoth er was unbounded. Sayre had been a guest at Knollwood, more or less, through the summer, but another business trip abroad was impeiding and he had urged Emily to bo married in September and go over with him. She had willingly agreed, and plans were made rapidly for the wedding. Seeming obstacles were over come, and Emily's efficiency com pleted all arrangements, and now the house party had gathered for the wedding two days later. Emily had frankly warned Say re of her impulsive nature and her erratic proclivities, but ho had only laughed and said he, too had flaws in his character, but they would, both take chances. Congenial In most respects, of similar tastes and sympathetic In their views, they feared no disil lusion, nor any disappointment that could not be overcome. And they were very deeply In love. , Sayre. quiet and forceful by nature-, adored the effervescent and excitable girl, and Emily, with innate common sense, rejoiced fa the guardianship of a man who could tamo her. If necessary. Aunt Judy, tnouga not con sulted la the matter, was greatly pleased witn Emilys choice and would stay on and take charge at Knollwood while the young cou ple looked the world over and decided where to mike their home. For Emily had regno but elab orate visions of a villa on the Ri viera, or a. country house on the Thames, and her ample fortune. with' Sayre 's most satisfactory prospects, gave them free rein. - But all those plans were for tho future. Just now the Idea was to hare the wedding a beautiful and memorable occasion, and Em 11 and her sides left no stone -un turned to make it so. Occasionally some detail was notquite as Rodney would have chosen it, but be deferred always to Emily's taste and Judgment and made slight. If any, protest His parents, who were coming from Boston for the wedding, would doubtless have their con ventional susceptibilities a little jarred b ytho lavish and elabor ate alfresco fete that would fol low the ceremony, but after all Emily couldn't be expected to consult a mother-in-law she had never yet seen. And Emily's crowd, a little more ultramodern than Sayre lik ed, demanded everything that was new and chic and exaggerat ed. So the bridegroom wisely re frained from criticism and advice and not even Burton Lamb, Say re's beat man and best friend knew that Rod was not heart and soul in sympathy with the gay aotngs. Perhaps Jim Pennington, with his deeper understanding of character, appreciated more truly Havre's attitude than did the light-hearted Lamb. The playwright was a con scientious student of human na ture and It his plays were not such as the Reverend Garner ap proved, at least, only one had, as yet, been eensored off the stage, He was not specially Interested in Emily Duane. but as she was his wife's crony, he saw more or less of the girl. He had aized her up as a typi cal young lady of the day though with rather more brains than most and with much more firm ness of character. But his conclusions were drawn largely from the tales his wife told him, and to her he gave the pronunciamento that the Duane girl was a "damned stubborn lit tle piece." Polly had agreed indifferently but the consensus of social opin ion was all in favor of Emily's wuiumess and obstinacy. Few, however, voiced this opia ion to Rodney Sayre, and had they done so, he would have hesi tated to believe It. For to him, Emily was the Terr spirit of gentleness and submis sion. She deferred to his Judg ment, asked and followed bis ad vice, and had never shown to him any of the plg-headedneas which Abel Collins had ascribed to her. Nor was this dissimulation on the gnvs part. She had found la Sayre taer lord and master, her Idol, her paragon, and she was readr and willing to submit to him In all matters on which be ehose to dic tate, i Whether thls.ldyllw state of things would last or not was moot question among Emily's friends, but it bothered her not a whit. Nor did iTMroubie Sayre. Ho was satisfied with his lady and with her lore and the future was on the knees of the rods However, it was disturbed at Emily's prolonged absence on this particular -occasion. Granting that she . and P6Uy Penningtoa. did lovo to est up, this wss no time tor the rutting up process to take place. And it was unlike Emily to say she was goisg to the hospital and not go there. She had Intend ed to go, he was certain, for her eager, happy smile as she told him about the Laurence baby was too real to be a blind.' "Where are theyr" he demand ed of Pennington. "I haveat tha least Idea, hut they'll turn up sll right. Don't worry." . . .

It Is the Issue of our crime problem. V S Revealing actual conditions in American prisons" is the purpose ot the new publication and ot the National Society of Penal infor mation which publishes it. As was said in this column on Saturday, the Minnesota penitentiary at Stillwater i the only prison in this county that is both self sup porting and pays a dally wage to every worker; and it is more nearly a real reformatory than any institution that is called that. And the Oregon prison system is following in the track of that of Minnesota, under an almost iden tical revolving fund law. And our system U oa a better basis, found ed on working up raw materials grown or found near the prison. U S There are a few other prisons in this country that are self sup porting, one that is much, more than that, and several nearly so. For the last four Trear period re ported, the, Alabama prison system paid a net profit of $3,269,098.70; a "profit neither equaled nor even remotely approached by any oth er state." But that system is based on coal mining and contract in dustries a system that is worse that that of the old slavery days; and most of the prisoners, men and women are negroes. There has been improvement in that state, however, and a great farm or plantation is being developed, that grows cotton and takes the product clear up through all the processes to the weaving of cloth. And road building camps that are models are maintained. Virginia about breaks even on her prison cost; but the system is even more crude that that of Ala bama. And the West Virginia state prison at Moundsvilla has an operating surplus of $24,669 09 for the year. But the same crude system; colored convicts. Contract system of labor slave driving. S The Kentucky state prison at Eddy villa has earnings of $173, 238.72 a year, making its net coat only $49,104.38. But its income is irom contract labor; largely colored. Slave driving again. Ken tucky's so-called state reforma tory at Frankfort, with 1640 In mates, has net earnings of $175, 442.44. wifh a net cost to the state of only $50,209.34. But It has contract labor; once, more, slavery conditions. Belies Its name of reformatory. Louisiana and Mississippi maintain their prison systems on great plantations; si- most self supporting, but with worse than slave conditions, with colored guards who are prisoners carrying anas aad whips, etc The Maryland state prison at Baltimore has earnings of 17 63,- 068.86 a year, making a surplus or profit of $15,319.63 a year; and the house of correction at Jes sup is that state, with earnings of $257,062.02 a year shows a profit of S27.050.7S. The auto licenses are made at the Baltimore prison. on state account; the rest ot the industries on the contract basis. Little or no reformation or cor rection on that basis. S The South Carolina penitenti ary at Columbia shows a net pro fit ot $2,927.12. Slave conditions there. The Tennessee prison at Nashville shows at net surplus of $103,141.57 a year, with foundry and factories on contract basis, and the one at Petros exhibits a net profit ot $35,356.51. with coal mines and coke ovens. Slave driv ing there. The big Missouri state penitentiary at Jefferson City, with around 4,000 Inmates, was formerly self supporting. It seems to be' costing the state about $1, 000,000 a year now, and it Is a disgrace to civilization, with sll .kinds of archaic conditions, mis management and political corrup tion. V V-.

Un der that heading the Handbook has the following: "There are many indications that sll senten ces to the prison of the future will' hevom a genuinely Indeter minate basis. Judges will merely commit 'to tnstUuUeas, without maximum or minimum term, such off enters as are deemed to re quire segregation from the com- musity.

While no system of releasing offenders devised or managed by human be ings can be infallible, the use of sound scientific and socially sane methods can reduce to a minimum the number who will return to crime, after release." That Is the doctrine, the Bite man has, been preaching for 40 years. It la the program oi every man who studies consistently cri minology and penology; every up standing' prison superintendent and warden endorses lt. How is the public to. bo brought to an agreement; to get away from archaic notions, founded on the ancient doctrine of "an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth?" V S The writer of the Handbook makes some suggestions, like these; "There is a decreasing tendency to 'cover up,' to claim excellence which their institutions do not possess, and to oppose change. If the newspapers would discuss penal matters with more balance and discrimination, and if the public were better informed and more discerning regarding penal Institutions, this tendency would received further impetus. Throughput the penal field there is need for a higher aim: that of training men for useful and satisfying lives in the social group. This involves among oth er things, the use of methods of group community training, which penal officials still understand on ly dimly and practice little." S V s That sounds simple. It is a long road. The Bits man believes the handling of men suspected, ac cused or convicted of crime should be raised to a profession; that trained men only should be em ployed in it from the constable or policeman to the highest judge on the bench.
