A TASK TO IX
A task to do ana a bite to eat,
A coat o wear and a bed at night,
1 hcse four make up this life complete.
All else la sham If you view It right,
A task to do and a home to keep,
A wife to amlle and a child to love,
A place to play and a place to sleep
What more shall be In the Heaven
above?
One task la all that a man can do,
fine, coatrla all that a man can wear
ftt who haa eaten a dinner through
Could eat no more of the costliest
fare;
Gold cannot sweeten a baby's smile.
Fume cannot better a good wife's
kiss.
Sleep doesn't come to the couch of
style,
, So rest content as you think of this.
(Copyright. 1921
Work is the father of appetite
Better the dinner that's truly earned
Than the silvered table that glows at
nlsht
"Where little la eaten and much is
spurned:
Better he sleeps at the close of day
Who weary comes to his humble
hol.
Than the man who putteth no care
away.
Better he wakes when the night Is
sped.
The humble home and the castle wall
Shelter men's happiness, your's and
mine,
"And God has given the same to all
And strengthened them by His love
divine:
A task to do and a bite to eat.
A coat to wear anda bed at night.
These four make up this life complete.
All else is sham if you view It right.

WE SHOULD HAVE FIXED IT WHILE THE FIXING
WAS GOOD . ,.
'HEREjmay be more truth than poetry in the followimr view
oi England and Japan as expressed in an editorial in the
L.nicago Jnbune:
Today England haa divided feelings about "the United States, just as it had
during the civil war.
The aristocracy doesn't like tis because we have no titles and no king, and
yet have succeeded In life. We are a bad example to their lower and middle
cisrses.. roor aristocrats marry rich American, women, but that is only be
,,.r !- wuum p-Hiner no anyimng man work for a living. They are active
nnft mey will work at politics, war, sports, but not for bread and butter.
They think It is more, honorable to marry for money than to work for it.
Fundamentally they dislike our style. To the British upper classes all
, Americans are middle class. lower middle class, or lower class.
These British aristocrats are typified in Lord Curxon, the minister for for
"Sen affair. He is tying to renew the treaty of alll.we between Great Br t
Kin and Japan. He knows that there is friction, which may develop into war.
between America and Japan. He is anxious to line up Great Britain with
Japan.
It would probably be the policy of the Tory class In case of s' h a war for
ireat Britain not to shoot guns .at us. She would simply "hold the ring" and
Vtserve a benevolent neutrality in faAr of her ally. She would prevent an
effective blockade of Japan..
A man like Curzon, who was viceroy of India, and had 3nrt.fl9O.OOO Indians
prostrate before him, has more sympathy with a militarist empire than with
a democratic republic,
A good long war between us and the Japanese would weaken us both. At
the same time Great Britain would be selling her goods to both sides and
vould regain her place as first world power.
Just now we? are the first world power and England knows it.
The middle and labor classes in England are more sympathetic with us.
They don't want to see a yellow imperial power beat a White republic. They
nren t i-eally a bit enthusiastic about their lords and masters and often wish
that, like us, they were well rid of thm. ,
It is working with them that we An get anywhere. And where we want
to get Is to get Britain away from Japan.
If those views are correct, and some of them are, it is most
unfortunate we did not fix things up while the fixing was good
to wit, last year. At the Versailles peace conference we had
tr.ings our way with reference to Japan, all except Shantung,
and had the peace treaty been adopted by the United States
there was a method of correcting the Shantung affair. Japan
.. asked for racial equality at Versailles and did not get it because
President Wilson opposed. The leacue covenant if arlnntori
fcy Lncle, Sam, would have automatically settledthe Japanese
iiiimirration problem according to our own wishes and Japan
would havfe been helpless to protest.
But the senate treaty foes played politics at a time when
politics should have been taboo and here we are. President
Harding is striving earnestly to recover in part at least the
ground we lost. But it is going to be a hard fjght He has far
to fo and even if he should wish to go there is a question wheth
er the senate will follow. How much better it.
ti have forgotten politics last year and viewed in their true light

Aroused by the fact Umatilla county is sending a party into
Crant county, Baker is going to do the same thing just after we

lJ-SSOX OF ltl'SSIA IMIKIl
1MH.SIIFVISM.
(From the Chicago Tribune )
The curtain of official concealment
which has hid Uie Russian scene so
long is now thrust aside and a picture
tragic and terrible is given to the eyes
of pitying Christendom. Famine and
plague, wild horses of a new apocal
ypse, harry the Russian countryside
and make desolation in towns and cit
ie. There is disaster on a scale which
r.iodein Europe has pot known.
To the Russian appeal for help
tin re can be and there will be only
one answer. It Is well that our gov
ernment has made conditions for t'.ie
release of Americans' held by the fa
natic -powers at JIoscow; but these be
ing fulfilled America will hot ntint
gc int, where need is so vast and im
pelling. Thoroughly' as we condemn
the bolshevik regime, AnWica. has no
quarrel with the Russian people and
w. 1 be glad to dp all that its science
and ita resources' are able to relieve
Muxvntion and check the spread of
disease.
. .i only is this dictated by the im
unl.se cf humanity, but it Is also ap
proved by reason, for there should be
lasting friendship between our nations.
Russia has been passing through a
stage of fanatic control, but she will
emerge from it, and once her feet are
011 the road of real republican pro
gress there should be strong bonds of
friendly understanding and coopera
tion b twen us.
Meanwhile Russia's plight holds n
lesson which 110 democratic nation is
likely to ignore or loiget. ' It nil! be
at least a very long time before anv
people will permit themselves to be
thrust iito tbe p:t rf blind destruc
tion wnich the fanatics of academic
communism dug for the inexperienced
Russian masses. If we had doubt of
the folly of any sweeping destruction
of the going concern of society It has
been wiped out by the ruthless experi
ment of the bolshevik regime.
j-.ri:i and his brother bigots have
demonstrated through the evils of rev
olution ln.w necessary to real progress
is the gradual evolution of social and
po.it iai f.vstemS. The bblshevik.
drunk w.th formulae, boasts of mak
ing a clean sweep of the past and of
erecting nil ideal structure of human
justice and efficiency on a foundation
cleared of ancient wrongs. In Russia
was his great opportunity and the
ai'swer ban been a vast and bloody
ruin. Rolshevism blames war inva-f-ion,
consiiring capitalism, etc., for
its failure, but these excuses cannot
cover the breakdown of the commu
nist system.
II; man nature In Russ'a did not
function according to bolshevik the
ory. Ti e substitution of -communal
interests for individual Initiative bas
ed on the right of private ownership
did not 1 roduce the essential of Rus
siiii lesioration namely, production.
There icne was adopted, and that has
not accornplished.the result required.
Cities have faded. Communication"
have not been restored
uy concessions made to lha peasant's
demand for his own land, which
cracked the communist system from
foundation to rooftrfe, has been un
availing. In fact, it is because the
Russian farmer was kept In constant
fear of the loss of his produce under
uie communist system, maintained by
ihe central jiower of the proletarian
dictatorship that ho refused to pro
duce the surplus necessary to meet
the needs of the town proletariat. He
raised only enough for his own imme
diate needs because lie feared any re
serve he built up would be taken from
him. Therefore there was no reserve
ind the productivity, of Prussia fell to;
tne lowest level, 'men came drought
and now famine and plague.
The bolshevik, with his book the
ory and scorn of human experience,
reasoned in a vucuum and has created
wmcthhig like a vacuum in Russia.
His elaborate mechanism left out the
mainspring of humuif effort, the mo
tive power of self-preservation, an In
stinct ns profound as human life tnd
the source of the basic accomplish
ments of civilized society. .
VV'c do not believe there ever can be
a substitute for this mainspring of
human effort, the motive power of
self-preservation, an Instinct as pro
found as human life and the source of
the basic accomplishments of civilized
society. :
H i do not believe there ever can be
a substitute for this rftiinspring and
motive of individual interest. jyny
theory wh,ich ignufes it will not work.
Any social architect who ignores it
will build ia wreck and not a structure
as one builds in defiance of graita
lion. '
There are, of course, cheeky and
b l.tpces.' There is, we hope, a con
stant enlightenment of the factor of
.self-interest and a growing under
s'fr.dirg tf the principle of human
In" rdependence. There is, wo hope
ar.d believe, a steady progress in the
to.t.ol of egotistic irnplM; a bronden
ir g of the ownceptiou of organized so
i'.eiy throutsn intelligent cooperatin.
This is a process of slow education
t' u ugh generations of thought and
1-pcrlenie. -Tfie bolshevik Imagined
li a it could be produced overnight,
and -when It failed to appear in the
onwii.of revolution lie turned to force
is rithlessly as any other tyrant, und
failed as miserably.
There arc no short cuts to perfeo
tioiL There is no patent formula for
an ideal society. There is progress
only through the slow development of
Pie individual's intelligence and moral
Bbiifg. The fanatic theorist is impa
tient of this process, but any people
that tarns from this path will follow
hint into disaster.
