Young man. eager to rise In the world.
Hark to the tale I tell;
Kever put hand to the lea.ot commnad
L'nlcsa you will do It well.
Tou must strive for speed, bnt speed
la Tarn ' ,
If poorly the work be done.
And the time you take for a Rood Job's
sake,
la time well spent, my con.
t have Vnown the world and the ways
of men
And the thinfts I tell are true:
Tou must build your fame on an hon
est name .
And the work that you can do.
Whatever you promise you must per
form. Never utter a pledge absurd:
By the faith you keep you shall sow
and reap,
Tou must stand to your given word.
The signs of the road are posted clear
But the wrong way's thick with
doubt,
Apd day or night, If you keep to the
right
' Tou never need face about.
It you gladly toil and you give your
liest
To the tasks you find to do,
If your record's clear, you need have
no fear
Tho -world has a place for you.
You get more genuine chew
ing satisfaction from the Real
Tobacco Chew than you ever
got from the ordinary kind.
The good tobacco taste
lastfs so long a small chew
of this class of tobacco lasts
much longer than a big chew
of the old kind. That's -why
it costs less to use.
Any man who has used both
kinds will tell you chat.

RIGHT CUT is a short-cut tobacco

THE LIBRARY SHOULD BE OPEN LONGER
THE public library is a splendid institution-arid much appre
ciated. But is it not a mistake to keep the doors closed
to the public for nearly 20 hours out of every 24. The li
brary is never open during; the forenoons and during the sum
mer will be closed of evenings except during the summer nor
mal course. It occurs to this newspaper that the doors of this
institution should swing wide to the public for a much longer
period daily. The value of a library is in its service and people
cannot use the library while it is locked up. It seems particu
larly unfortunate the library should be closed evenings because
many people who work cannot go to the library between the
hours of 1 and 5 :30 p. m. The taxpayers of the county have
been liberal in suDDortinsr the library but they are entitled in
return to know that the institution is rendering a maximum" of
service to the public.
' WHILE THE NORTHWEST SLEEPS
IT is asserted by W. L. .Harding, chairman of the Iowa wa
terways commission and former governor of Iowa, that the
cost of transportation by land is eight times the co.st of
handline freieht bv water. Mr. Harding makes this claim in
an appeal for connecting the- great lakes with the sea by means
of a huge dam on the St. Lawrence r:ver. 1 nrougn sucn a aam
navigation could be provided between the lakes and ocean and
at the same time two million horse power could be developed
for industrial use, Mr. Harding asserts that from the power
standpoint alone the project is feasible despite, the estimated
cost of S250.000.000.
t If tht-is good for the lakes region it is also true for the
northwest The heavy Droducts'of the inland empire are now
moved by rail because of navigation difficulties on the Colum
bia. .Canalize the Columbia in connection with power develop
ment at such points as the Umatilla rapids, Celilo and Cascade
Locks and the river wUl be made fit for barge transportation
so that wheat may be moved to the sea at a fraction of the pres
ent cost. It would be a wonderful thing. nut it wouia not De
more wonderful than the power deve:opment and the blessings
such development would bring. ' Electricity is virtually at tne
base of modern civilization and progress. Therefore it follows
that the region blessed with ample and cheap electricity is for
tunate above all others. We nave in tne coiumDia Dasin one
third the notcntial water Dower of the nation and thus far we
have made no use whatever of our greatest stream. How long
are we to continue this policy tf stagnation with respect to our
best asset? .

EVERY state now has a compulsory day school attendance
law, according to information recently furnished by the
U. S. department of labor through the children's bureau.
The bureau has just completed an analysis of education laws
' affecting child labor, the results of which are published in a
hart entitled "State Compulsory School Standards Affecting
the Employment of Minors."
In five states attendance'is required until 18 years of age,
in two of these in certain districts only; in 3 until 17; and in 32
until 16. One state requires attendance until lo, six others and
the District of Columbia until 14, and on? state requires attend
ance until the age of 12 years, but applies this to illiterates
only.
Unfortunately, the exemptions in the majority of states are
so numerous that they greatly limit the application of the law.
The most common exemptions are for employment, or upon
completion of a specified school grade. Four states specifical
ly exempt for work in agricultural pursuits, three with no age
provision. The laws of 14 other states contain loosely worded
provisions exempting a child at any age, which might be used
to cover absence for farm work as well as for many other pur
poses. Several states exempt a child whose services are neces
sary for the support of himself or others, without'any age or
educational provision.
The amount of attendance required is still unsatisfactory in
many states, several demanding only 12, 16 or 20 weeks in a
year. Even in states where city children must attend for 8 or 9
months, the amount of attendance required in rural school dis
trict is sometimes considerably less.
The missing ship ptory is about the most romantic affair oc
curring since the great war. The complete disappearance of
eo many vessels under similar circumstances indicates a plot of
some sort has been afoot and has been working. This view is
Ftrcngthened by the note from the Carrol A. Deering telling of
the capture of the crew by an oil burning chaser. What enemy
is roving the deep?
Eishop Fellows of the Methodist church says short skirts
