(laughters, saith the Lord Almighty. Corinthians 6:1S
Reph
lace the Resources
The most important feature in connection with the pro
posed linen mill is the necessity of providing a profitable crop
for farmers as well as a manufacturing industry for the city.
This is stressed by T. A. Livesley, one of the largest investors
in the project, in a letter to the Oregon Voter as follows:
Oregon Is only holding her balance by a little In her favor, from
the natural resources which are going out at the rate of sixty-six
million per annum, and what will be her condition when the lumber
is exhausted? Is It not time that we looked for something else?
You can recollect when Oregon produced 160,000 bales of hops,
which was i big industry, that has largely been taken away from us
by adverse legislation on, and millions of private and foreign
capital have been confiscated In consequence, and the press came out
and said loganberries would take the place of hops. Ttaey have come
and gone. We bad the dehydrated vegetables, which were advocated
very extensively by the press, and this has practically gone out of
business, for lack of a market. But here Is a proposition
that has stability, that Is protected by a tariff. We are Importing
(100,000,000 of linen annually, and we are convinced that Oregon
can grow a large quantity of very fine fibre flax. This
industry will open up a business that will equal our lumber industry,
and will be here after, our lumber Industry has passed.
It is the necessity for developing a new agricultural and
manufacturing industry, one for which the Willamette valley
is peculiarly naturally adapted, one that will furnish a home
market for farm products as well as home payrolls that has
led far-sighted and public-spirited citizens to attempt to
finance the proposed linen mill, to the end that the valley
may eventually develop a great textile industry.
No more important project has ever been before the state,
especially important to the farmer, whose greatest need is a
crop that can be raised at a profit with an assured market,
yet we fuil to observe any support for the enterprise from
our so-called state agricultural college, altho there is no better
way that agriculture could be served. If there are any
experimental flax farms, we have not heard of them, and
there is no effort to aid in financing the project at Corvallis.
"We are Tired"
Symptomatic of the growing revolt among university
students against the exultation and commercialization of
college football, we quote the following frdm the Daily
Northwestern of Northwestern University which predicts
that "many, many years after the Senate has come to the
support of the League of Nations", the students will rise up
and say :
We are tired!
We aro tired of this everlasting blah-blah about a winning foot
ball team.
We are tired of. having a football coach who trains forty men and
receives as largo a salary as four Instructors who teach oue particular
subject to 600 students.
We aro tired of having alumni come back and eay what a fine
halfback there is in Podunk High school and can't we find a job
for him.
We are tired of this stadium bunk whereby 60.000 spectators
watch twenty-two men or rattier employes battlo for supremacy.
We are tired o't being told (hat Northwestorn needs more men.
One of the best things about Willamette University is that
it has no winning football team, and probably never will have,
to demoralize its students, who have a serious purpose in life
r.nd attend to secure an education and not to play games or
witness spectacles.
However the influence of commercialized college athletics
h.j t-pread to the high schools, where its influence is much
more pernicious as the pupils have neither the judgment
nor perspective of college students, so the reaction is more
injurious both to the student body and the athlete.

My Ma trimonial
Vacation by Violet Dare
BKAItDIXG Till: MOV
I didn't tell Virginia anything
about my previous meeting with
her broker -alter all, It would
mean so much explaining, and I've
found that it's better never to ex
plain things if you can possibly
get out of It. If I told her that I'd
lied so that I wouldn't have to
dine with her and Frank Harri
son, and gone into the noose of a
perfect stranger when he opened
the door, rather than tell Prank
that I hadn't told him the truth,
matters would be so complicated!
So I jiint said that the man had
been awfully nice, and that he
was going to carry her account a
bit longer and was sure the stock
would go up and she wouldn't lose
It and wouldn't have to put any
more money up In order to hold It.
"That's wonderful!" she auid.
"A pretty girl can do anything.
Haven't I always told you that?
She had, -ot course. I went to my
jown room, feeling tired and dis
couraged and rather cynical. V not
a world there one's own mother
urged one to go out and try to get
the most out of men that way! I
wished with all my heart Jut then
that I'd gone to the Philippines
with Jim; even if he did care more
for another woman than he did
for me, I wouldn't have had to do
this sort of thlngl
I dressed for the party that eve
ning rather indifferently, not car
ing much how I looked. Virginia
come In just as I finished,' and
made me tio my hair over again
and put on another frock.
"Sometimes you seem to take
actual pleasure in looking just as
dowdy as possible!" she rrtomied.
"Don't you know that the very
time when you look your worst te
likely to be the one When your ap
pearance counts most? '
I didn't say anything, it's im-j
posnible to argue wiht Virginia. Of
course, she thought she was giving
me good advice. Hut for about the!
millionth time in my life I wished!
that I'd had a different kind of I
mother.
I wished that we had in Ameri
ca, a custom that is frequently fol
lowed abroad, where mothers some
times change children for a year or
so. An English girl I'd known at
school had been sent, when she
was twelve, to stay with a Swiss
family in their home, and their
daughter of about the ame age
had come to. hers. Except for oc
casional visits at home she had
stayed there for three years; I
She told me that when she fin
ally went home to stay she met her
parents on a new footing. She got
acquulnted with them all over
again. As a result, her mother was
a companion to her, rather than a
grown-up person whom she had to
mind. She said that It was an ex
perience she wouldn't have missed
for the world.
If only I'd had three years with
another kind of woman, intend of
Virginia!
The party was going full tilt
when I arrived. A girl's voice
floated out to me as the butler
opened the door; she wns singing a
silly little song that hadn't any end,
and through the doors leading to
the living room could see a man
playing the piano. I paused a mo
ment in the doorway, looking the
guests over before any of them
saw me. Nobody that I knew, ex
cept the host and I hardly knew
him.- Just one more New York
party!
"Oh the - lovely lady!" The
young man who'd been playing
rushed over to me. "Welcome
homo." Some gorgeous dance mu
sic cams over the radio at that
moment, and he put hia arm
nround me. "Come on. wide-eyed
child, let's dance we can be in
troduced later."
As It happened, we weren t, but
that didn't matter. I felt quite sura
that I'd never want to see him
again. I didn't care for any of the
women; they seemed to me to be
decidedly deolassee. And the men
didn't act as if they had much re
spect for them, but of course
they'll do that even at the nicest
parties nowadays.
Mr. Jordan drew me aside after
that dance rnyniff that he wanted
to have a talk with me.
"Some of these people are leav
ing before long, and then we'll real
ly have a good time." he said.
"Along about four o'lock the party
ought to get well started."
Oh. but I II have to go befors
then," I protested.
"Indeed you won't. Listen, my
child you're not going to walk
out on me after what I did fo: you
this morning, are you?"
I liked him less than ever then.
A gentleman wouldn't have remind
ed me of it, I told myself but
then, a lady wouldn't have allow
ed him to help her. I was as bad
as he wag.
"Not if you want me to stay," I
told him. After all, I could Blip
away when he didn't notice my
going.
The party got rowdier and rowd
ier as It got smaller. I told myself
that I simply must leave. And there
was no chance. Mr. Jordan made
it impossible for me to slip away.
Finally I managed to slip away
to tho telephone In the hall. I
called a number that was blazoned
across the top of the 'phone book.
"I want to report a fire " I
cried in anguished tones when I got
It. "This is number ao-and-so Park
Avenue gent the engines quick!"
Ten minutes later three of them
had arrived, siren whistles shriek
ing. Everything was confusion. I
grabbed the butler, made him get
my coat, and left i nthe midst of
the tumult without being noticed.
