In an Interesting address before the National ' Editorial association at the time of its recent visit to the northwest, Herbert Cuthbert, of the Pacific Northwest Tourist asso ciation, pointed out the economic value of our waste places. Our mountains, our sea shore, lakes, canyons and gorges, are all, in a way, waste places since they are not used in production, but they have a value to nearby commun ities which, here in the west, is only Just being realized. Mr. Cuthbert's argument was for the development of these so-called waste places as tourist attractions, and he pointed out that, in the state of Maine forty million dollars was spent annually hy tourists, while in California during the sea son tourists spend a million dollars a day. To the people of Central Oregon in general, and of Bend in partic ular, 'the appeal should come with especial weight. Nowhere in the whole country is there another sec tion which contains so many and so diversified attractions. Nowhere is there so much to interest the tourist and enable him to satisfy his love of fishing, or of scenery, or of mountain climbing. Visitors la the past season have told us this, and we are beginning to realize that we have been sitting here with our eyes 'blinded to it all. : Let us open them wide and then proceed to the development of our resources. - ' :- CLAIMS HONOR FOR GEORGIAN Yesterday's classified advertise ments contained two that were very suggestive , of present-day condi tions. One called for a man dish washer at $105 per month andTthe other for a country school teacher at 190. Here's boning that the concilia tion board will produce results ac ceptable to all. And the sound of the air was heard in the land. drill COMMUNICATIONS To the Editor: Under date of Sept. 11th the fol lowing advertisement appeared in your paper: "WANTED Man dishwasher at log ging camp, $105.00 per month. Apply at office Brooks-Scanlon Lumber Co. "WANTED Teacher for District 29, Lake Co., Ore., at $90.00 per month. Lady preferred. Apply to T. M. Mussen, clerk, Stauffer, Ore." The comparison here appears odious to the extent that I should like to raise the question as to how long the business interests propose to remain indifferent to the future of a profession that is one and insepa rable with the welfare of our boys and girls and their training for life's work., Since, we demand the best food and the best clothing ob tainable for our children why should we not demand the same tyi;c of mental and. moral training for tliuin. The argument . that "Wo secure teachers" does not bold for tonior row pr , any future time, since low wages and the high cost of living are. surely and effectively forcing competent teachers ' to seek ; othur lines of employment. ' ,. It Is high; time that the common wealth better Itself,, not only that Justice be done, in the case of those at present employed In our schools, but further that wages be set at such a figure as will insure the attraction of the best talent to. the profession. Yours rospectlfully, J. E, LARSON. Savannah Newspaper Assarts That Ellas Hows Was Not Inventor of the Sewing Machine. The centenary of the birth of Ellns Howe.' the modest Yankee who Invent ed the sewing machine, took ilnre on June 9, There was no extended of terrnnce of the tiny, observes Mart ford Coiirnnt, yet it was Howe who took a good ileal of the drudgery out of the lives of millions of Amor lean women, lie also Increased the power of his fellow men to produce garments and other material Unit formerly needed the patient handwork of Indi viduals. Hut It Is Interesting to observe. In connection with the anniversary, that the Savannah News undertakes the rather hopeless task of trying to con vince Its readers that It was not Howe, but a Georgian, Francis It. Gouldlng, who constructed and operated the first sewing machine. This paper says that ,thls 'man, Presbyterian preach er living In Liberty county, married a Savannah girl and then began work on a sewing machine in order that he might save bis fair wife much hard work. Alleging this was long before Howe patented bis machine, and also that Gouldlng never patented his. they try to show his motives were purely altruistic and not commercial. It all sounds good, but It will take considerable "space" In the Georgia newspapers to convince the world that Gouldlng takes the prise. MONKEY CHAIN CALLED MYTH Recent Travelers in South America . Explain Probable Origin of Story - Once Implicitly Bel'eved. An Interesting article by Prof. E. W. Gudger, In a recent Issue of Natural History, deals with the time-honored story on which most of us were brought up that South American mon keys are In the habit of crossing alligator-Infested streams by linking their tails and legs to form a living bridge. Pictures of this feat once figured ex tensively in the school geographies, and Professor Gudger reproduced such a picture from a Fourth reader pub lished as late as 1S07. The story was first told, so far as known, by the Jes uit priest Padre Jose Acosta In a work published In 1589. Several Inter writers have repeated the tale. The first person to dispute Its veracity was Baron Humboldt. Recently explor ers of South America, when they men tion the story at all, express skepti cism. Finally, Messrs. Leo E. Miller and George K. Cherrle of the Ameri can Museum of Natural History, who have done so much traveling and col lecting in South America, have sug gested to Pitjfessor Gudger a plausi ble origin for such tales. They think that the story of the "monkey bridge" has come about through observation of a procession of monkeys crossing a ravine or stream on a pendent liana. --Scientific American. Why Americans Lost Contract. 'Speaking of Chinese railroads re minds me of the failure of an Amer ican manufacturer to obtain a con tract for locomotives because his Eu ropean competitors made a more care ful study of Chinese peculiarities," writes Lynn W. Meeklns In the Scien tific American. "One locomotive was ordered from each of the competing companies. In every respect save one the American product was unmistak ably superior. However, It had been painted black before shipment from the works, and on the way across the Pacific It become more or less rusted. 'Its appearance, therefore, was far less attractive than that of the Euro pean locomotives, which were painted In accordance with Chinese preference, nnd had been touched up by the manu facturers' agents after arriving In China. Don't get your colors mixed If you want to sell goods to the Chinese." Some Coign of Vantage.

'Is that a portrait of your grand mother when she was young?" asked the awkward visitor. "How It resem bles you. Miss Ugleton '." "Now you only say that to flatter me. Grandmn was quite a beauty, and everybody knows that I ahem I make no pretensions of that kind." "I assure you, Miss Ugleton," ex claimed the A. V., "flattery Is far from my thoughts. The family re semblance Is striking. I've often known cases like that. There were two sisters I knew when I was a boy. They were wonderfully alike, like that portrait's like you, and yet one of them was as beautiful as a poet's dream, and the other was dreadful that Is, I mean, she wasn't nt all or, rather, she was lacking In that that attractive qunllty, you know, that con stitutes what a lovely frame this por trait has, eh?" Edinburgh Scotsman. India Again Importing.

Security School Shoes WILL LAST SEE THE TRI-STATE TERMINAL CO. WEST MAY WIN A. A. U. GAMES ATHLETES FROM OREGON ARK EXPECTED TO MAKE FINK SHOWING AT NATIONAL GAMES AT PHILADELPHIA. t (United Preai Suit Comepondenk PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 12. General revival of Interest in sports is expected to make the national games of the Amateur Athletic Un ion on Franklin Field, to-day and tomorrow, the greatest in history. Return of many star soldier ath letes, whose absence "over there" made rather tame affairs ef the meets during the past year should make a boomer of this year's revival. Class of the contest should likewise be put on a higher plane, due to the return of the soldiers who have been taking part in Inter-army and Inter Allied meets since the signing of the armistice. Useless the east can, bring out some excellent talent, the west Is looked to bp an easy winner in the national games. Outside of Pat Mc Donald, Pat Ryan and Matt McGrath, the New York police trio of weight stars, the east doesn't seem to have any entries that will trim the ag gregation that the west will send from San Francisco, Seattle Port land. Spokane, Los Angeles, St. Louis, Kansas City and Salt Lake City. The list of stars includes Ralph Spearow, Portland, who has cleared thirteen feet in the pole vault; Verne Windnagle, who while a student at Cornell forced Ted Meredith to his half-mile record; Arthur Tack, who has a record of 181 feet with the Javelin, Wallace Caderly 4SV4 sec onds for the quarter; Floyd Payne, a five mller who has never been boaton; John Murphy, with a high Jump ot 6 foot i Inches, and Homy Williams, who is crodltod with a mark of ST& seconds for the hundred.
