They da not like Ruf usi He has-been an outsider and a cantankerous outsider. He doesn t know enough to stay outside in the eold rain; and pohticians do not like such ignorance or rebelliousness on the part of an vr.tsider.i i - Ptif,i Iim 1nVVd at the turned the key in the latch and pulled down the blinds, Rufus would get mad and call names and make faces; and the boys on the inside didn't like that He should have known better than that, been a good doggie and wagged his tail when the master cuffed him. Then some time he might get a little of the grary to keep him from political starya- So Rufus has been obstreperous. He has been violent in 'his denunciations. The Oregonian was the chief victim of his malediction. When the little fire was started for the candidacy of George .W. Joseph there was Rufus Hotman feeding the flames. When the insiders were laughing over the Joseph candidacy and quarreling' among themselves over Norblad and Corbett, Holman was in the inner circle of the 1 i 1 1 tt..am id. ....I., avnan'anoivl eaaiafarta tVlflf Joseph had. Now Holman is on the inside and those for merly enjoying the warmth and the luxury of political power,: they are on the outside, end great is the wailing and gnashing of teeth. ! We think Rufus Holman will make a very capable state treasurer.; Unless we are mistaken he will be no mere rub ber stamp for the governor. Holman has. some political title and standing iri his own right. He is not a political jelly fish. His conspicuous service was as county commissioner of Multnomah county for ten years. He went into office after the old bridge scandals of the commission; and Rufus was ruthless when it came to scotching graft. He lis incorrupt ible. He is competent He has the right instincts for public service. He is stubborn in sticking to his own opinions, as me governor wiu xuiu uut. u xaci, hjc unci uiuwsui w him as an office holder has been that hewas hard to work 51 The training as a member of the county commission of Multnomah county should prove extremely valuable to Hol man. Add to this a familiarity with state higtory and poli tics, from; a life spent wholly within Oregon, an acquaint ance "with public men over the state,, good business training withi this equipment Holman should make a commendable record in a very important post of the state government NO 'cokes, for Portland this summer unless the makers offerj amende honorable for the slight to Portland's pride.

We may see the advertising manager of Coca Cola going into a quick huddle with the sales man ager, looking up the sales' sheets for cokes in Portland, frantically asking each other, "what to do,. to do?" If the sales sheets justify it "a special dispensation will doubtless be accorded the "city of roses" and its wounded pride duly soothed by fifteen minutes of radio blah, blah.1 ' 1 Any Dogs Around Here?

Pure Foods By a O. DUER, M.D. : llarion County Dept. of Heal t How many people know what Is being done by the local, state and federal authorities for protection against impure foods? Nearly ererythlng that Is placed on our tables has had some kind of Inspection to In sure not t only food free from harmful, bectar ia and spoiling bat also tree of ebemical Impar ities. At times our gorernme&t anthorltles go to great lengths t a protecting- Pr. o. o. saaar her citizens. - In Salem the milk supply la pro tected In seTeral ways. The city councn has passed a code that provides for Inspection of dairies; the teating I cattle must be done to determine- whether or not the ajounals are diseased; milk must be handled in such a way as to. sat fy certain" requirements be-' fore it can be distributed; cream most be pasteurized befora being sold. or made into butter. Much of the meat we eat is In spected In the slaughter houses by federal authorities to see- that the meat of diseased animals is not sold. -Certain 7 carcasses must ' bo destroyed and condemned meat cannot be sold when once con demned.. - ' Our grocery stores, markets and other such esblhments are In spected to see that perishable food Is properly handled or cooled. The store mast be kept reasonably clean and filth Is not aUowed to accumulate. Condemned food stuffs are sprayed with kerosene or some other substance so that It cannot be sold. Restaurants and hotels are Inspected and the em ployes are examl-ed for presence of any communicable diseases. Recently a man in a cec.-lh city became ill with ptomaine poison ing which was caused by a certain canned food. The United States public health service Immediately lnrestlgated. found where the food was originally packed, found what dealers throughout the country had received any of this product which had been packed at the same time,' and telegrams were sent out to all these dealer re questing them to destroy -or re turn any of the product that they had received.

Adelaide was in the house and lying, as usual, on the very slip pery horsehair sofa, a knitted af ghan over her knees. Adelaide didn't look ill. and for the very good reason that she was in ex cellent health.. But she refused to believe It, and she had more aches and pains to the minute than most people have In a life time. She had long ago discov ered that it was rather nice to be waited on. to have the neigh bors run in with soup and cus tards, garden flowers and calves' foot jelly. She liked being called "poor Miss Jennings' and she adored hearing "how patient" she was "under her burden." And what most amazed her relatives Clara in particular was . that old Mrs. Jennings, usually so clear-sighted and so impatient of fraud, should so completely be lieve in Adelaide's "heart at tack" and Adelaide's "rheumat ics" and be even a little proud of so gloriously invalid , a daugh ter.; . Adelaide Was m Blonde Adelaide . was . a plump and grayish blonde with an expres sion ot resigned sweetness now second nature to-her. Billy, rush ing ! Into the living room , where she lay, cast himself across her recumbent -form without let or hindrance. "Softly," begged Aunt Ade laide in her die-away voice. "Auntie has such a headache. How welt you look. Billy boy!" she added, almost .accusingly., -Clara and Howard tiptoed up - from force of habit -to remove their Insensitive son, and inquir ed dutifully for Adelaide's well-being.-, Adelaide, sat up,' reached tor the smelling salts which stood on a small, entirely . beautiful tip top i table beside her, inhaled with the same glow under all the patterns of all earth's thousand tribes.- o.-W. Holmes. i vsuuiwii flWvsiAAUU w CiMs HIGHLY DISAPPOINTING . . . ... ' C deeply, and then launched into an account of three . heart at tacks in as many weeks, a stiff knee and a sense of breathless ness. "I Just can't get my breath at times," said the sufferer proud ly, "but I'm as i well - as - Can be expected, thank you." . .. She then looked at Mary Lou, rosy from the crisp Autumn air, and inquired fretfully: i j "Is that paint on your! face, Mary Lou?" 1 -Why, no. Aunt Adelaide," Mary Lou remarked, giving the elder woman her usual courtesy title. "I never use 'it. ill don't need to." . , "Well," said Aunt Adelaide, "I don't like so much color In a glrL Tell me," she asked How ard avidly, "is there any history ot tuberculosis la Mary, Lou's family? I don't like that bright color," she repeated. . H , "For goodness sake, Adelaide, no! Why should there bet? ask ed Howard, irritated. "Mary Lou comes of perfectly healthy stock." At this . moment as Adelaide was about to burst into descrip tion, ot a school friend,! "very like Mary Lou la coloring'? who had died .of gaUoping: consump tion before her shocked : family was even aware she was sick. Grandma Jennings arrived with Adelaide's morning snack of hot milk, toast and Jelly; and order was restored. - While Adelaide sipped "Xo wonder she's fat," thought Mary Lou with scorn, "eating six times a day and never taking a step of exercise. I wish I could have her for a year. I'd scare her up on her feet!" the family made her; plans. : Blake Plans JTor Jlilly Billy was to come out to Oak dale a day before his father and! mother sailed, as Clara found it unnecessarily cruel to expose him to the emotional strain of a part ing on a cold, wind-swept, de pressing pier. His diet was dis cussed, his schooling, his clothes' all this being possible as Billy was out in the . garden chasing Aunt Adelaide's coddled and in dignant cat, with howls, of mer riment. Mary Lou was to follow him down after closing the house and to share his little bedroom until she made other plans. When the talk turned, as was natural, upon Howard's new position and the Orient, Adelaide was in- her element, having known several missionaries to foreign parts who had either been murdered In mu tinies, eaten by cannibals or who had died, lingeringly, ot awful fevers. Including dengue; - black water and malaria. There was even one family wiped out wjth cholera. At this juncture Howard Sanderson wiped his brow, gazed appeallngly -at his- wife and es caped into the garden Just in time to rescue the cat from! Bil ly's firm, loving but unconscious ly murderous embraces. f A little later, leaving the sis ters together, Mary Lou went out to the kitchen i to help Mrs. Jen nings . "dish up" dinner and to set the table. She was quite hap py out there injthe pleasant smell of roasting and baking and made herself extremely useful. She-and Grandma Jennings had always been good friends and Mary Lou thought, wistfully, that if she could only get sine paying work she would be content to lire in Oakdale with the ; old lady and Billy. But not as content with Adelaide. "Adelaide," thought Mary Lou, "gives me a -pain in the neck!' I'd like to shake some sense into her. She's so ' darned healthy she'll outlive all of us!" . Company Leaves by Traia After dinner which Adelaide enjoyed heartily, not coming to the table; howerer, but served on an ample tray, the Sandersons and Mary Lou stayed tor anoth er hour or so, sitting sedately in the living room, a hodge-podge ot good and bad furniture, of mixed periods, after the dishes were washed and dried. And pres ently they left for their train. walking to the station for the good of their health after so lav ish a meaL . j , ' ;, Billy, who had been told mere ly that his mother and father had to go away tor a time and that he would soon come to stay with Gram. Aunt ! Adelaide and the cat, was perfectly happy in the charming selfishness of child ren, too young to realise the im pending long: separation, and de lighted with the thought of coun try and garden and freedom, to say nothing, of the spoiling he would get I from his relatives; of which he was perfectly aware. The fact that Mary Lou would be with him too, made every thing quite all right i Clara was happy; for him that ha "took it that way,", but, moth erlike, she naturally ; could not forbear a tittle pang of Jealousy that her boy seemed so indiffer ent to her I departure. "Not," she added hastily, "that I want him to grieve."! . . - - j . rHe's rery little," Mary Lou excused him, "and he doesn't re alize. I expect that after "you do go. he'll be awfully! homesick for you. Clara." She refrained from adding what she further believ ed, knowing Billy; which was that he would soon i forget, adapt himself. Children were like that she thought, and. even some adults. Not u grownups, how ever, possessed such a happy fac ulty, she pondered heavily. The rest of the remaining time flew, or so it seeded to Mary Lou. The house was i cleaned, things were stored; some were sold to friends and neighbors. Mary Lou and Billy -raced along Shore Road one Saturday after noon while! the Sandersons went shopping for clothing suitable to the tropics! Billy serene and un conscious, Mary Loss with an in creasingly sore heart. And. pres ently the day had come for Clara and Howard to bid their little boy good-bye and take him out to r Oakdale. . Mary) -Lou stayed home that day, wandering about the empty house, ai house which seemed the ghost of itself, most ef the shabby, lived -with furni ture gone,: the walls showing marks of vanished 'pictures and the very floors, bare; echoing des olately to rher tread.'; She was '1M wit my wotctsxi AN AS4.S 0USL OkTV4AN UWVtft,. -1 , Leadership ;:is'' neces- . i sary even in , a De- ' irnocracy-.
