Those young people have received a training that !s.superior to what Harvard University gave its graduates 75 years ago. Incidentally the Pendleton school system, the advantages of which were open without cost to these graduates and their fellow students and pupils, is better financed than was Harvard at the, time men tioned. Our young people in America have comforts and ad vantages of education such as could not be had by kings and princes and princesses in the days df old. All this because the world is going forward, , Through development. man has im proved his physical and social position. But without schools this development would not have occurred- Incidentally we would still be in the stone age had we no schools and the mind of man would be shackled fcs it still is shackled in the backward regions' of the earth. . Let no one scoff or sneer or say that we devote too much time and money upon our schools. The school j system of the United States is at the base of our material pros perity and of the republic's1 advancement as a world power. The nation that does not educate its people neglects its greatest resource and pays terribly for its neglect. Were it not' for our Kehools the AmeriearTfarmer would still be driving an ox or a ri ! cause our grandfathers and grandmothers did not have such op j portunities, yet succeeded. The boy and girl of today will i in later years compete with men and women who have a training superior to what can be obtained at present. Ifl you neglect jEj your chances you will pay the price.

When the trees are taken from the water-! sheds a .great protective agency is removed. The forests with the shaded undergrowth make the snow melt slowly and hold; the moisture in the mountains so that it may be liberated by' degrees as the summer sun shines down upon the-hills. Whenj the forests are gone the low lying country is endangered and j floods will result as surely as the l(aw of gravity operates. . j If we are to be safeguarded against disaster.the forests must ! be protected and there must be steps taken towards reforesta-1 tion where land has been logged off. This situation holds good I in the northwest as well as in Colorado and the middle west. In fact the case is t,he more pressing in the northwest because our streams are shorter and have a heavier fall than the streams of the middle west. ' .

J health service,. a French investigator has discovered that -the malaria mosquito prefers cattle to human beings and will feed on them whenever she can, thu3 materially reducing the human malaria rate in several parts of France. He suggests fitting up stables as gigantic mosquito traps w ith cattle for bait. Here's a chance for the anti-vivisectionistd and anti-vaccination-ists to start a movement under the slogan: "Spare! the ox; let the mosquito bite your child." , , . , A New Jersey medico' says "tobacco forms a sialoagogue around thesteeth, thus preventing bacteria from getting a foot hold"; if the average tobacco chewer fihd put that the habit may help' him in some way he will quit.

The fiother fei said to be grlef-strlckcn, having but ene clillil left of six, the other having recently met untimely deaths, two of them from Influenaa. , It was' over the protest of many farmers whose crops were Jeapordlted and In the face of crop' damage from lack ot water thut may amount to many thousand of dollar that the Kovernmont officials lit Charge of lh Futinysido project consented to drain- ' aire of the canal. The water was turn, ed off this morning, and the depth at Grandvlew had been reduced from six , to two feet when the body wad found. .

A Fish That Makqs a Good Mother IVERYBODY knows that birds r build wonderful ntsLs for their egg and babies, but everybody I doesn't know that there Is a ccr- laui I'ltle fish that doe the very ame thipg. They are little bit of fellows, fi&rdly ever more than two or three inches long. They are called -s'lt kle backs, because they have a row of stickers on their backs a sharp as needles, and these are the weapons key fight with; and ft fish, that Has felt them once. Is going to be mighty careful to keep out of their way the second time. As Utile aj sticklebacks are, they are churk full of fight, and are afraid ot nothing that swims. No matter if a fish 1 fifty or a hundred times as big as they are. they don't hesitate to tail In and drive It away. They dart under a big fi?h. jab tt with It need'. nnd are gone before the fih can turn around. So the big flh that would like the best la the world to eat them for breakfast, seldom try, a they have learned from experience, that there are some things It doesn't pay to eat. and that stickleback Is one of them. .Now most klnd3 of fish are not very good mothers, they just lay their tgKs, and go on about their business, and never think of khem again. If 'he errgs are gobbled Op by other fish, all well and good, they hava donr thfir duty, and that's the end of It. Now ftTi lay 's great many more eg? than birds would know what to do with, the rot! Rah for Instance, that Is so good when made up into bsIU, is aid to lay about ten million' egg' Now that r probably more than all th birds In a St.'itc lay In a year, but the moiher cod knows that' thou sands and thou?andJ of the egsrs are going to tin ea'en before they have chance to hatch, and thai other thou sands of the young flair willhe de voured while they are babies. nd that comparatively feur will - live lo he frown, so she allows for all this when she lays epss by tha mli'lon.' Now the motherly little stickleback rtoen'i Just lay her epsm anywhere, and lVve them to their fate, but he and her lit'le mate, who by the way. is a 'very gond father too, pull up ihegr.15" and weed., that grow in the water, and work ihun Into a kind of ball with a hole through the center. Andto keep this nest, for lhat Is what It. ls,,from floating away, ihey fasten It to the. sterns of rushes or sortie other water plant, Ju.it as birds buiid their neat In bu-hes and tree. The. mother stickleback swim Sn the hole and lays h-r eggs, which drop down and lod'e among ihe gras of the net, and Vie there until they hatch. Siie does not go off and leave ihe eggs, evrn if they are hidden in a nest, but she stays rlflit with ths.ni. her head sticking out of the from door and her tail out of the back one. and watches over them. The father stickleback hangs around in calling distance, and If his mate has to leav? the nest to snatch a bite to est. ne I takes her place and guards the ergs unf! sne comes oars.. .xir me parenr. are so email, you can Imagine the size of th? babies when they come out cf the egu.
