THE CAHV IXCi KM I
When I was but a little lad, my father
carved what meat we had,
With grace and skill he'd cut and
. slice the roast of beef or veal
With dexterous hand he'd wield the
' blade, no false or awkward
move he made. '
And deftly he could whet the knife
upon his shining steel,
But now and then I'd hear him say:
"Who's used my carving knife
today?
What woman's used this hlade of
, mine for cutting wire or tin?"
And on this special point he'd harp:
"a carving weapon must be
, t sharp,
Or one can never cut a roast and
have the slices thin."
' I
"That knife must not be used on string
or bread or boards or anything.
Hands off my carving blade," he'd
cry, and yet I grieve to say,
In spite of all his warnings grim, the
' women paid no heed to him,
They used his sacred carving knife
u dozen times a day.
They'd use that knife for cutting soap,
old carpets, leather belts and
rope,
They'd use it too, for pulling tacks
and leave it dulled and nicked,
And every time a meal began, my
father was an angry man,
But vain was every oath he swore
and every kick he kicked.
N'ow like my good old dad I stand,
and take the carving knife in
hand
And run my thumb along its edge
and find it dulled and nicked,
And like my good old dad I vow, some
day there'll be a healthy row,
Tint I'm as unsuccessful as my fath
er when he kicked.
The maid, the youngsters and the
wife still take that sacred carv
ing knife
And use it as a handy tool on wood
or lead or stone,
In spite of nil I do or say, the hlade
is dulled from day to day,
I cannot get the women folks to
leave that, knife alone.

GIVING THEM CAKE; DENYING THEM BREAD
TT IS very evident from expressions giv6n last evening, by
nnirman tJooth and by other members of the state highway
commission that the present commissioners are thoroughly
impressed witn trie idea that tourist roads are the great need
of Oregon. On the other hand they seem to place little stress
on roads that serve economic needs.
For instance Mr. Booth thinks the John Day highway solves
me roaa proDiem tor urant county. It will be admitted the
John Day highway is a great road. It is of particular value in
caring for east and west tourist business through that section.
But it provides for no means of travel north and south. Yet
conditions are such that north and south travel is what is need
ed. The stockman in Grant county wants to reach a town
where he finds banking accommodations, where there is a la
bor supply and where important mercantile houses are located.
Three places are open to them, Heppner, Pendleton and Baker.
The John Day highway takes them to none of these places. It
reaches Arlington at one end. and Unity at the other. A heavy
share of the Grant county banking is done in Pendleton and Pi
lot Rock. Naturally the people wish to come this way. They
have made the point very clear many times and the case in com
plete. ' , v
The policy of the highway commission means that Grant
county is to be given cake in the form of an east and west tourist
road but is to be denied the bread it needs in the form of a north
and south road that would serve the big economic need. That is
not sound policy and it cannot prevail indefinitely. It is grossly
unjust to northern Grant county and to .southern Umatilla.
Those regions are isolated and need help.
If highway funds are running short why not curtail on the
dessert, in other words, tourist roads, rather than on economic
roads. It seems a travesty that this state can secure funds for
roads that bring Visitors into the state but can do nothing for a
road that would .give relief to home people who have suffered
long and the getting tired of the primitive life they are forced
to lead. The Grant county people of course appreciate the cake
thai they are getting but they tell us frankly and often profane
ly that what they desire is a road over which they can haul some
Umatilla county flour and other supplies.

PRESERVING THE ELK
A FINE of $750 and costs was assessed recently in a Clat
sop county court against a Portland man who pleaded
guilty to killing an elk. To some it may seem that the
penalty was one of extraordinary severity, but it is going to take
just such penalties and heavier ones to protect the noblest game
animal of this country from the tate of extermination.
Our national museums are filled with the reconstructed skele
tons of animals and reptiles which roamed the swamps and
fields in prehistoric times. They became extinct when condi
tions on the globe changed from those for which they were nat
urally adapted. They were victims of evolution.
The native elk of America is not in any immediate danger of
being a victim of evolution but he is in grave danger of becoming-a
victim of civilization. There are now only about 52.000
elk in the United States, according to the United States depart
ment of agriculture. These constitute but a mere remnant of
Ihe great herds which once roamed the forests from Maine to
Oregon.
The federal biological survey is authority for the statement
that the co-operation of federal, state and all otho' int v ted
agencies is essential to insure the permanency of II. ..; : ;.!; mlid
animals.
High mortality among elk in recent years has beer, iue in
part to adverse weather conditions such as periodical summer
droughts followed by unusually severe winters. But encroach
ment of settlers largely is to blame. .Much of the suitable win
ter range is enmmaieo. iiuniers Kill thousands ot elk as gamej
ana many 01 me iinesi animals necome tne victims ot tooth
hunters operating illegally. Mountain lions, lynxes and coyotes
also kill many.
The elk is a distinctly American animal. He is the king of the
forests. To allow his extermination, if it can be prevented,
would be shameful. Too soon he will join the plesiosaurus and
thexest in the caverned rocks despite all that man can do to
keep the race alive.
The department of agriculture urges that limited ranges of j
hay land, through which elk would be absolutely protected, bei al '
r.i hocoi r,v t n j ctts rn m nn t t t
In any event the time is near when the same stringent efforts
as those which saved the buffalo from extinction are needed to
preserve the elk.
And not the least of these efforts must consist of constant
vigilance on the part of game wardens and penalties by the
courts upon those persons, who deliberately hunt to death the
romparatively few remaining elk. such as will deter other fn.m

N. S.) Dr. William Hiram Foulkes,
general secretary of the Presbyterian
New Era Movement, will sail from
here July 27 on the steamship Prin
cess of Australia. He will visit mis
sion fields In the Philippines.. Japan.
Korea and China.
His Journey is the result of official
action taken by the General Assem
bly's Committee of the New Era
Movement. As expressed in the re
corded vote of fhe New Era, Staff, this
is "in order to gather first-hand
nowledge of the benevolence work of
the church, with that zeal and under
standing which have characterized his
knowledge of benevolence work in the
homeland."
This is Dr. Foulke's first absence
from the active work of the New Era
Movement, in the United States in
four years. ,
- In addition to thus getting acquaint
ed at first hand with the work going
on In the mission fields, Dr. Foulkes
also hopes to present to the mission
workers the type of work carried on
by the New Era Movement. Presby
terlanlsm in the foreign field, notably
in Korea and the Philippines, has wit
nessed great growth as a result of en
thusiastic adoption of New Era meth
ods from the beginning of the move
ment, and church leaders In the Or-
ident will welcome first-hand presen
tation of New Era principles by the
general secretary.
On account of his intimate con
nection with the Chinese minister, Dr.
Sao-Ke Alfred Sze, in the work of re
lief of the Chinese famine, Dr. Foulkes
is to be. afforded unusual access to
many in Government circles In the
Orient.
Dr. Foulkes expects to arrive in
Yokohama August 7, In Tokio Au
gust 14, in Seoul August 22, in Pe
king Septembers, in Shanghai Sep
tember 26, id Manila, October 3, in
Canton October 13, in Hongkong Oc
tober 19. He will arrive back In the
United States at Seattle November 7.
Dr. Foulkes is also secretary of
the Committee of the Presbyterian
Church on Work in Europe, but has
deferred a personal visit to Europe
until after the completion of his Far
Eastern trip.
