Before some smiling face I'll see, For everywhere good people are Who'll wave a kindly hand at me; So filled with chance Is every day That no monotony appears, And I may find along the way A friend I haven't seen for yearn. i (Copyright, 1932, by Edgar A.

IF WE ARE GEESE WE.WIIX GET PLUCKED WHILE in Eastern Oregon with the tax commission I. N. Day, chairman of that body, made a speech in La Grande in which he said: "The direct primary has failed to meet the expectation of its , proponents. It has abolished party and substituted irrespon sible popular government.1 "It has made the Oregon system a joke and raised hell," 1 It Is significant that the Portland Oregonian is talking along the same line. These things are doubly noteworthy when it is recalled that the Oregonian and certain other influences in Portland did not like the most recent manifestation of the Ore- trnrt nvatom, r Vin rlofenf In tVio stnfn unnntp nf tho nrnnnsflrl $3.- 000,000 tax for the Portland fair. On that occasion 14 direct primary v chosen senators stood firm for conservatism and agtmst a radical Portland proposal that the state be heavily taxed for an enterprise of interest pjrimarily to Portland. Are the men now criticising the direct primary worrying about tax es or do they worry because the Portland clique lost its grip or nffAirn nnrl mnv An an nam in ? ' ? . On their trip through Eastern Oregon" the Portland members of the state tax commission said much about public school ex penses and in Pendleton one member intimated that tuition should be charged Oregon students attending state colleges. That was a suggestion that as far as our colleges are concerned : free public education be abolished, It was a Suggestion to srouse just resentment. 1 - But the East Oregonian has looked in vain for 1 any word of commendation from Iho tax commissioners for the men who . blocked the $3,000,000 fair tax the beggesj; single attempt at taxation ever proposed in Oregon. We have also looked in vain for any words Of alarm from the Portland members with respect to the $40,000,000 road program in the state. If ' Oregon has i been extravagant it has not been' in school affairsbut in paving roads, that lead to Portland. Millions have been spent on such roads, but when we ask for funds for an economic road of im portance to farmers and stockmen we get the glassy eye and the cold shoulder. These things are worth thinking about at this . time. It will be well for people to have their eyes open. There , is something peculiar when men who have just been baffled in tin attempt to place a needless three mill tax upon our property chide us about high taxes and our school expenses. As to the direct primary and its responsibility for high taxes that is a joke. The brightest spot in the present situation from the taxpayers' standpoint is that we have the direct primary. Because of the direct primary our legislators and other officials are directly responsive to. public sentiment and they are falling over themselves to comply with what the taxpayers desire. Have they not already saved us from a $3,000,000 tax and would they have done that had we been operating under the old political system. f Not in a million years.

Have your children ever said "I can't come Just now, Mother I m busy with my blocks!" No doubt the building of blocks was at that moment very important more Important than we can realise. But more important still should be the response to the de mands of time. Some of us are maf ; tlnets always Insisting on the accom plishment of a given tusk at a given time, till our children come to look upon time as a relentless, hateful gi ant. I think a great deal of the Bloth- fulnees of this world comes from that arbitrary Insistence that things be done on time. The things huted In childhood are gladly cast aside as soon as maturity comes. j But Isn't thore some way to mnlte punctuality and a well-ordered lifo a beautiful and desired Instead; of i a dreaded thing? For it is beautiful. Time is not hard and relentless If It is rightly used, life becomes smooth, peaceful and happy; If used wrbngly, llfo Is a tangled mass of fretting and discord. You've Been folks who .al ways had to rush to get to places on time who rushed to get their meuls ready who rushed about their clean ing and their sewing. It Is an unlove, ly quality. It is nearly always when you come down to the facts tho result of previously not havln done things bit time.' Their clothes weren't in or der for calling tho dishes needed weren't clean their materials had not all been purchased for the proposed sewing there wasn't any scourln,," powder on hand for scrubbing. N"t one of us wants a child to grow up lo be that kind ot a person, who neither gives nor gets happiness. However, that state Is not only natural one. arising from a failure to appreciate tho Importance of time. It Is not the 'rusher' who has tho most. leisure time. It Is the one who does each tank as It comes, does It thor oughly, leaves nothing for 'soma other time.' Of course, we're all only Jiu wan. and wo all have lapse's, but it's I Just In so fur as wo meet duties un afraid and willlngljf that our work be comes easy, a pleasure instead of a dread. But how enn we got our children to see the Importance of this? First,, ! think, emphasis should be placed on the pleasure that accompanies that In stant response to the call of tho clock. The "Como this instant or youwon i got a bito of supper!" 'Is mly too com- tnon. It seems to me it s only fair, while the child Is young, at least, that ho should be told that supper time Is near at hand, that shortly ho'll bo call ed In from play. Perhaps you can let him know of something he likes that's going to bo for supper. You'll find that he cornea much more rc.tmly When It Is time. And soon promptness becomes a habit. Pleasant habits cling to us. Why not work to make into pleasant habits all necessary duties that have to be observed through life? Wonderful results come from tho ex penditure of a littlo patience and lime.
