MANILA ACHIEVED , ,u ,
When American troops entered Manila yesterday the goal
toward which General MacArthur had striven ever since he
left Corregidor over three years ago was reached, blow at
first while everything necessary for the job was being as
sembled progress in recent months has been speedy and now
he has reached the first great objective. It was a great day
for this great American general and for American arms. And
let us not forget the thousands of American dead whose sacri
fices led up to yesterday's triumph.
Now comes the preparation for the next great step that
will drive the Jap out of the other stolen lands and finally
end his military rule in Asia.
PINUS CONTORT A
Last week we quoted, under the "Others Say" head on this
page, what Malcolm Epley had written in the Klamath Herald
and News on the subject of lodgepole and jackpine. bpley
Wohator's rfotinitions and concluded that "Apparently,
it's proper to call any lodgepole a jackpine, but not all jack-
pines are lodge pole. ... I
uo atnif k as wb rend this, bv the fact that no men
tion was made of the name pinua contorta which, we have al
ivnva understood to be the name of the local lodgepole pine
and we went not to Webster but to Sudworth's ''forest Trees
of the Pacific Slope" to get the thing straight. We think you
may be interested in the fact that suawortn maKes no men
tion of the jackpine but that of the lodgepole he says :
"The pine described under this name Is one of the most In
teresting o Pacific species on account of its variable charac
ters anu on account of its enormously wide range, which
extends from sea level to nearly 11,000 feet elevation. Kor
many years a fruitless effort has been made to keep the tree
which inhabits the northern Pacific coast region, extending
to Alaska over the western Cascades, and known as Pinus
contorta, distinct irom tne tree 01 me nigu ,ohti au
Hocky Mountains plateaus, known as lodgepole pine (Pinus .-.

"In its Pacific habitat this pine is a low tree with a dense,
rounded or pyramidal crown, the large, much-forked branches
' often extending down to the ground. This form is the result
of an open stand, which permits other pines to produce a
similar form. In very close stands its develops a tall, clean,
slender shaft with short.rounded, small-branched crown. This
is Its characteristic form In its more eastern range, and has
there given the name of 'Jpdgepole pine.' '

Clinic to Assist
Alcoholics Backed
Portland, Ore., Feb. 5 (IB A bill
now before the Oregon senate to
establish a psychiatric hospital in
Multnomah county for the cure of
alcoholics has been endorsed by
delegates from state and local
groups with some 300,000 mem-
hers.
Meeting In the chambers of
presiding circuit Judge Walter L.
Tooze, the delegates urged that
a research clinic to observe and
treat alcoholics and' narcotic ad
dicts be founded and asked that
additional judges for juvenile
courts be appointed.
"I don't think the people of this
community are In a mood longer
to tolerate the treatment of these
unfortunates as criminals rather
than as sick persons, which they
are," declared Judge Tooze.

THE PRODIGY
"Fri tzchen!"
It was the voice of a woman,
loud but not shrill. It came, as
it seemed, from the next room.
The bov at the pianoforte sat
quiet. His eyes were not on his
music. He was jooKing at inc
slantinc ra n h ttine at the win
dow and beyond the rain at thej
gray dullness of the countrysiqe.
Peasants, with heavy capes over
them to protect them from the
rain, were working in a nearoy
field, knee-deep in mud.
"Frit tzchen!"
It was as thouch he hadn't
heard. It was as though he didn't
want to hear, as though . . .
Yet he was listening. He heard
the patter of the rain and the
voices of the peasants calling to
one another in the field across the
road from the house.
The door opened, and a wom
an's voice said: "Well, well, now
wha does this mean?"
The boy turned. Ho looked Into
the eyes of the woman, his Mam
ma, who was now in the door
way, smillnp at him.
"Frltzchen, is something
wrong ?
"No, Mamma."
"Your playing suddenly stopped.
I listened. NothlnR. I thought,
what Is the matter? Is something
wrong?
"No, Mamma." '
"Do you know your lesson?"
"Yes, Mamma."
"Ah, that Is good. It Is very im
portant, Fritzchen . . . especially
today.
"Yes, Mamma."
The woman beamed, her pride
obvious. At the age of 10, the boy
was already a person of note in
Zelazowa Wola. Indeed, Count
SUarheck. who owned the entire
village and therefore the most
powerful man in this section of
Poland, had called one day at the
cotage in person to see "the won
derful boy. And Fritzchen had
looked up at the great man, his
hack against the wall, a little
scared. Then Count Skarheek of

not know what to do. The child's
eyes, it seemed, were faslenul on
a jewel that glistened from the
slender fingers of the nobleman.
"Ah, you little rascal." Skarheek
had said, "you d h;(ve it now,
wouldn't you?" Mamma Chopin
didn't know how to apologize. She
scraped and bowed. What could
she say? The count burst out
laughing. "Fine grasping fingers,"
he said.
get such Ideas? There was no
answer. He did not come by them
through any Inheritance; that
much was plain. Yet he was a
good boy and that, afler all, was
what really counted. But more,
he had a good heart, a sensitive
soul. Look, how he responded to
music! Did you ever see anything
like it? Almost from babyhood
music affected him. A melody
would bring tears to his eye.
Sometimes he would actually cry.
That was carrying it to extremes,
of course; stil lit was a good sign,
the best in the world. Mamma
Chopin could only hope that he
would learn to control himself.
that he would outgrow his tears.
Mamma and Papa both were very
patient with him. He took early to
the planolorie anu ne was en
couraged in that as he was in
everything else. He played marvel-'
ously well, students mucn oicier
could not play half so well, and
even such a master as Jozef
Eisner scratched his head. There
was something to tho boy, after
all. It was because of his dex
terity at the pianoforte that Fred
eric Chopin as a child became a
person of note in Zelazowa Wola.
It was because of this renown
that Count Skai beck had come in
person to the Chopin cottage to
hear the child play.
looked at his music. He rested
his fingers on the keys of the
pianoforte, then began to play the
Mozart "Sonata in C Major." His
touch was sure. He played with
grace and case.
There was a violent knocking at
tho window.
"Look!"
Outside, flat against the pane
of the window was the face of
Professor Eisner.
