OUR GEOGRAPHIES
In a way, the treatment of Central
Oregon In the geographies now in use
in our schools is merely amusing.
Ir another, however, it is really a se
rious matter. All over Oregon these
books are in use. Is it, then, any
thing to be wondered at It all over
Oregon there should be a profound
and dense ignorance concerning this
eection if the youth of the state for
, the past five years have been getting
their information from their pages?
How well can we be known in the
other states where the book is in
use?
Speaking of fire prevention the
it other day, Chief Carlon said it was
, necessary to begin the work with the
school children, because their minds
were the most impressionable,, their
habits less fixed. What habit of
thought, may we suppose, is preval
ent in the minds of the children in
the rest of the state when they think
of us? What information do their
parents get when they look in the
school geography to find out about
, Central Oregon? - The answer, of
course, is that they are getting noth
ing but erroneous ideas from the
school books, and in our fight for
publicity and recognition we cannot
. afford to let any such ideas go forth.
The text books used in in the
school outside of Portland are se
lected by the state board of text book
commissioners. According to the
Oregon Blue Book, the members are
Harrison G. Piatt, Chairman, Port
land; Margaret J. Cosper, Salem;
Mrs. A. E. Ivanhoe, La Grande; Al
fred G. Schmitt. Albany; F. A. Tied
gen, Marshfieid. The Blue book
further says: "All terms expire
January 31, 1921," and, ,concluding:
"This commission meets every six
years and adopts text books for use
in the public schools outside of Port
land. At the meeting held June 2,
1919, text books were adopted to be
used until June 2, 1925."
What the board did when it met
in June, a year ago, was to readopt
the geography that had been' used in
the previous six years. We do not
know what other geographies, if any,
were offered for its consideration,

Oa Being Fat
There's not much sense in being fat, in wearing
too much lard; the weary years have taught me
that, for I'm an obese bard. Diseases punk I en
tertain, dire ailments two or three; and. though
I'm twisted up with pain, I get no sympathy. Men
laugh to hear a fat man groan; and though he's
feeling tough, and has an ache in every bone, they
think it all a bluff.' If I were thin and drawn and ,
pale, they would not treat me thus; if I put' up an
anguished wail, they'd make all kinds of fuss ; with
soothing words they'd quell my fears, and bid my
pains depart, and shed the sympathetic tears that
reach a sick man's heart. But I am fat and when
I yell they all begin to laugh; and they'll be laugh
ing till my knell precedes my epitaph. A lean man
falls, and ppople sigh, and wonder if he's hurt;
they, bring his hat, arrange his tie, and brush from
him the dirt. There's tender feeling in the glance
that everyone bestows ; and for a padded ambulance
some sympathizer goes. A fat man falls all in a
heap, and telescopes his spine, and people stand
around and weep but laughter brings the brine.
The fat man goes his greasy way, with large and
bulging vest, and to the whole world, every day,
his every move's a jest.

but if there were any they must hnve
been shot full of faults. Otherwise
the board cannot Justify its selection
of the book now in use. A possible
answer is that worm geograpnicu
changes made it necessary to put off
the issue of an edition with necessary
revisions. We believe, however, that
the board, if interested in a fair deal
for the whole state, might have se
cured a book that treated us iutelli
gently and correctly.
It would be worth while to take
this matter up with the State Cham
ber of Commerce and, through it. in
sure proper treatment 'of Central
Oregon hereafter.

Mrs. Morgan was on a trip to
the Willamette valley for her health
when he illness became critical. Her
husband, three sons and a daughter
survive. Two of her sons are now

tend the funeral.
Demanding of merchants their
highest priced wares, whether you
can afford them or not, is fuel for
the profiteer. Even with present
prices, proper judgment can be ex
