Be gooJ. be brave, be one who
wins
The highest prizes men may
eeek;
13e strong to turn from all the
sins
That tempt the foolish and
the weak;
Have courage every day to be
One of the noble, worthy
few;
Bring all your troubles home to
me,
But, first of all, be true be
true:
Be rich, be one whom other
men
Shall learn to honor and
obey;
To me Impart your secrets
when
Tour tasks are ended for the
day;
Go forth each morning to suo
ceed
From doubt of your high mer-
it free,
But in each thought and word
and deed
Be true, be true be true to
me!
Be one whom other men shall
cheer ,
And ask their sons to emu-
late;
With purpose high and con-
science clear,
Be wise, be earnest and be
great;
Be powerful, be splendid, cause
Tour fame to spread to every
zone;
Be worthy of the world's ap-
plause
But keep your smiles for me
alone!

AIDING THE MORALLY SICK.
Jn dealing with wrong doers as
with other evils it is true that a pre
vention is always better than a cure.
It -would be splendid if the world
could get at the cause of crime and
wipe it out completely. Incidentally
there are many who think a long step
in this direction could be taken by
eliminating social and economic
wrongs that prevail.
But the world moves slowly and
man's upward progress is gradual. So
U is idle to expect perfection in any
thing and until people do become per
fect thtre will be wrongdoers and the
need of rescue work. Within recent
years people have come to have a
greater appreciation of what may be
done towards aiding those who are
more or less down arid out. Just now
Police Judge Frick of Cincinnati is,
attracting some good attention be
cause of a plan he is following. He
has called upon the people of Cin
cinnati, of all classes to aid in the
tusk of reclaiming derelicts, especi
ally of the Juvenile order. Individu
als arc- urged to take upon themselves
for the period of one year the task
of guiding and rehabilitating .wrong
doers who come before his court.
It is an effective way to work. The
man, woman or child who ha through
v.eakne-s or through imperfect train
ing fallen into crime and finds him
self in the grip of the law Is more
liable to regain hold upon decency if
supervised by some well meaning in
dividual with the tact and kindness
essential to the success of the task.
All people, no matter how- low, have
ar. appreciation of the good and beau
tiful. They may do wrong but they
do not uphold wrong doing. Often
they will climb out of the pit If given
assistance and encouragement. When
they can be reclaimed It is worth do
ing bo, not merely because a human
soul Is worth saving but because a
good man or woman contributes to
society while bad people are but para
sites upon the world.
IIAKMO.N A TAFTITE.
There Is considerable discussion
going on these days as to whether or
not Governor Harmon is a progres
sive or a reactionary. Were he in
Oregon he would be classed as a re
actionary, most emphatically. He
opposes the initiative and referen
dum and when the subject was re
cently under discussion in Ohio said:
"I am not convincej that the in
itiative and referendum, applied gen
erally to subjects of U'-,ilalion, would
be an improvement on our system of
government by representatives. Xo
one can Justly claim that this new
departure in government has yet
passed the experimental stage In
other states, while even if it has.
none of them has so large or so di
versified a population as Ohio, or such
a great variety of interests."
From the above it would seem that
the Ohio governor and presidential
aspirant holds much the same view-as-
does the man already in the White
House. If a man is wanted who is
opposed to direct legislation why
make any change?
A Sl'IMalCAIj I.l-IYPKR.
There are heroes of peace as well
as war and one of the former died in
London last Sunday. He was Baron
Lister, who is credited with being the
man whose discoveries brought about
the system of aseptic surgery now in
use throughout the world. He was
S7 years of age and during his long
life time did wonderful work towards
advancing his profession.
When Lister was a young house
surgeon in a London hospital the
mortality in the surgical wards every
where was something frightful. The
germ theory was not then understood
as it is now and the simplest opera
tions were often followed by troubles
that brought on death. It was the
theory then that the decomposition of
the tissues of a wound was due to oxy
gen in the air. '
Lister held the idea . that the
troubles arose more from local caus
es than anything, else and worked
upon that idea. He made use of
antiseptic washes and sprays and al
so insisted that patients be wisely
protected against infection with germs
from the instruments or from the per
son of the operator.
Through the development of ideas
set forth first by Baron Lister, ac
cording to his biographers, the sci
ence of surgery made great advance.
The mortality rate has been wonder
fully reduced and operat'ons are now
possible that at one time were re
garded as entirely beyond the limit
of human ability. Of course the ad
vance of surgery along other lines
than those upon which Uster worked
has no doubt contributed largely to
the progress made. But if Lister is
entitled to half the- credit that has
been given him since his death he
did great things for the art of sur
gery and was a benefactor of suffer
ing humanity.
A SOCIALIST CITY.
Pocatello, Idaho, Feb. 14, '12.
Editor East Oregonian:
In your issue of Feb. 13th you com
ment editorially on the efforts of the
Schenectady, N. Y. administration to
carry out real constructive program.
I think it would be only fair to the
men who are setting so worthy ex
ample of honesty and efficiency in
city administration to mention the
fact that these men all 'belong to the
socialist party.
Some of yonr readers know this.
A great many do not.
Many other cities have become
wearied of the inefficiency and cor
ruption of the old parties and have
decided to give the working class a
chance to put into practice some of
the demands of the socialist program.
Many of these, such as full municipal
ownership, have been in operation in
the European countries for years,
that they are a success. Is a fact open
to fullest Investigation.
Xo democratic or republican co
administration pldes Itself before
election to a program as beneficial
as that so successfully started in the

It Was Awful. Cried Continually.
Had to Hold and Watch Him
to Keep Him from Scratching.
Suffering Was Dreadful.
Had not Used Half a Set of Cuticura
Remedies Before Head was Clear
and Free from Eczema.
"I think the Cuticura Remedies are
the best remedies for eczema I have
ever heard of. My mother had a child
who had a rash on its head when it was
real young. Doctor called it baby rash.
He cave us medicine, but it did no
good. In a few days the bead was a
solid mass, a running sore-- It was
awful, the child cried continually. We
had to hold, him and watch him to
keep him) from scratching the sore.
His suffering was dreadful. At last wa
remembered Cuticura Remedies. We
got a dollar bottle of Cuticura Resol
vent, a box of Cuticura Ointment, and
a bar of Cuticura Soap. We gave the
Resolvent as directed, washed the head
with the Cuticura Soap, and applied
the Cuticura Ointment. We had not
used half before the child's head was
clear and free from eczema, and it has
never come back again. His head was
healthy and he had a beautiful head of
hair. I think the Cuticura Ointment
very good for the hair. It makes the
hair grow and prevents falling hair."
i Signed) Mrs. Francis Lund, Plain City,
Jtah, Sept. 19, 1910.
Cuticura Soap and Ointment are for
sale throughout the world, but to those
who have suffered much, lost hope and
are without faith in any treatment, a
liberal sample of each with 32-p. book

The fishing season will soon be
hero and it is only proper, therefore,
that our readers should be furnished
with simple instructions concerning
the best methods of preparing carp.
Not being willing to trust to our own
judgment in the matter, we have
prevailed upon W. F. K. of Sterling
where many of our most expert carp
catchers reside, to impart such Infor
mation as is considered necessary. His
advice is as follows:
Two Nice Ways of Preparing Carp.
To prepare carp dellclously wash
the fish carefully, skin it and fill with
bread pudding; then pour sour but
termilk over the whole fish; wrap up
neatly, and express It to anyone whom

you have a grudge against.
Clean the fish nicely and let it dry
for two days In the sun. Nail the fiBh
to a pine board, cover it with salt,
and After it has stood for two days
put it In an oven and bake it slowly
for six hours. Then draw the nails,
throw the carp away and cat the
board.
A KIND OF EMPTINESS.
Two hunter had "beaten" the trail
along the marshes of Long Island for
three days with an unusually small
bag resulting. The food supply had
run out much ahead of scheduled
time; far worse, the "liquid ammu
nition" had been exhausted in the
early stages of the hunt.
After following the coast vainly for
three hours, looking for some sign
of habitation, they spied an empty
house on the beach.
"Go in and look It over. Bill," said
one.
He did so, returning in a moment
empty-handed.
"Anything in there?" asked his
companion, expectantly.
"Nope," replied his running mate,
with a profound sigh "nothing but
two empty bott'.es full of water."
