In appropriating $3,000 from next year's taxes for tha support ut -i county library the county court has taken a step to put Deschutes in line with other of the more proKi-essiv? Oregon counties. Wasco an 1 Hood River have had county libraries since 1912, Umatilla since 19H. Jose phine county allows a grant to the Grants Pass library for county ex ates successfully and in the middle tension. In California the plan oper States it is superceding local oper ation. The Umatilla county library ex perience is perhaps the finest of the Oregon counties, outside of Multno mah, and may well be looked to for guidance, in the local work. A cen tral library 1b maintained at Pend leton and branches at Milton, Free water, Ferndale scbool. Pilot Rock. Hermiston, Umapine school, Stan field, Echo, Weston, Athena, Helix and Adams. Funds for the central building in Pendle.ton came from the Carnegie corporation which also made contributions for one of the branches. In the other branch towns the library was established as soon as the local library committee had prepared a suitable room or building which could be heated and lighted as needed, with an attendant or the committee to take charge. The single fact that four years after the Umatilla library was organ ized there were 4.814 county bor rowers registered who never before bad had public library privileges, shows how great a work the institu tion did and suggests something of what a county library may do in De schutes. Today Bend and Redmond have meagre library facilities. By the county system both wil. be greatly improved and in addition it will be possible to get books into commun ities which have hitherto had none. There Is a fine work to be done and it is a pleasure to see it made possi ble. English Women Buying Farms. Women in England are buying their own farms or their own truck and gar den spaces in rather conspicuous num bers. And this is all an outcome of the tremendous work done by women on the land during the war. The gen eral feeling is that there will not be much room for the common female farm laborer as time advances, but for the woman who hns a little money and who looks upon farming as her pro fession and her life work there Is ex cellent opportunity In this direction. In the first place, on account of the compact location of the garden spaces and the cities In England transporta tion of foodstuffs is easy. Then gar den truck and flowers do grow abun dantly and profusely there, and always find ready markets. The' Forgetful Parson. Field Marshal Sir Henry Wilson tells an amusing story of an old West coun try parson who bad to hold two serv ices, one in his own church and one In the church over the moor. On arriving at the latter church he got Into the pulpit and said he was awfully sorry, but he had forgotten to bring a most admirable sermon which he had written. , "Luckily." be continued, "as I came across the moor, I remembered a beau- fill which I will .. tell, ,-you in place Hi'' the sermon. " E.r-er-ivell, dash it. I'vv forgotten that."tun?" f?mnlin$RhuniGS v w mr m v - .i- o Anti-Red. The banks are full of savings, the people's hard earned dust; and so we hear the ravings of Kcds with deep disgust. No program anarchistic can get a foothold here; no wild-eyed Russian mystic can throw things out of gear. In vain the red flag wavings, the threats by tongue or pen; the banks are full of savings, -put there by working men. When all of us are stony, dead broke and on the bum, perhaps Red speeches phony with greater force will come; perhaps they will convert us, we'll join the unwashed clubs, until the peelers hurt us with lignum vitae clubs. But while we have our savings in yonder moral bank, you'll note that our behavings won't be so brash and rank. With vines and figtrees growing beside our cottage doors, we do not heed the blowing of freaks from other shores. With happy children playing about our modest homes, we do not heed the braying that comes from batty domes. In vain the elocution of frayed, im ported seer; no priest of revolution can get a foot hold here.
