A "Crisis" At Hand W. J. Hcrwig has resigned as state superintendent of the Anti-Saloon League, which may indicate that "pickings" are getting poor. At any rate, coupled with the recently called national "crisis convention" it serves to call attention to this remarkable institution. The Anti-Saloon League has been for some years our in visible government, state and nationalOriginally financed by the Rockefellers and big business uplifters to fight the saloon, it is bi-partisan in politics, follows terrorist policies, and is conducted like a close corporation, its finances as well as its actions being secret and above the law. The league is supported from public contributions and jhurch collections. It's propaganda and political compulsions put over national prohibition during the war and Volstead ism afterwards. It is a shining example of what an organ feed militant and fanatical minority can do to the unorgan ized and tolerant majority through coersion of cowardly poli ticians. Before national prohibition, it was comparatively easy to finance the league, for it promised the millennium through emotional appeals against the demon rum and people were willing to pay to realize the millennium. When the saloqn had gone, the league had apparently realized its purpose. But the pickings had been too fat to give up, so the league passed the hat for 'law enforcement", and for five years its contributors have pungled up because they believed it essen tial to enforce prohibition. However the government is spending tens of millions a year now to enforce dryness, has an army of rum hunters and a navy of rum chasers in addition to many more millions spent annually by states, counties and cities, while drastic laws provide every penally save shooting at sunrise for viola tion, so that the old appeal has lost out and another slogan has to be manufactured to keep the money coming. So the "Crisis Convention" has been called to prevent the imminent return of beer and modification of the Volstead act. They are an ingenious lot these Anti-Saloon leaguers, but perhaps after all, bser will be their salvation, and keep the collection plate full. Hunting Casualties According to the report of state game warden E. F. Averill, eight persons were accidentally killed during the deer hunting season in Oregon just closed and two since the pheasant season opened, and six others were crippled for life or seriously maimed and dozens of others wounded. Four were killed for deer, one killed by falling over a cliff, one killed by accidental discharge of a companion's rifle, two kill ed cleaning guns, and two killed themselves by accident, one when his gun went off in his automobile. All of these casualties were due to gross and criminal carelessness. There is no excuse for shooting into the brush without seeing the deer, or for mistaking n man for a pheasant and blazing away, sight unseen. Prosecution for manslaughter should follow and yet there has been no single prosecution inaugurated. A few convictions and prison terms and permanent loss of hunting licenses might lesson the number of murders and accidents, but it would not eliminate them. Neither can any sumptuary prohibitory law regulating the issuance of licenses correct the situation. No law ever devised will remedy inherent carelessness or instill' caution, and there is no possible way of ascertaining how a person will act under the emotional excitement of the chase. Hunting accidents are due to the same cause as auto ac cidents and while certain laws and regulations mav limit both, they cannot eliminate the enure, which rests in 'human frailty, as long as both are free-for-all pursuits. Safety during the hunting season, lies in staying out of the woods as long as manslaughter goes unpunished. A. Foolish Petition Parents of high school students temporarily suspended for violating written pledges, defying school rules, and breaking he slate law by joining n seqret society are said to be circulating a petition requesting the school board to res cind its order and sanction the existence of the banned or ganizations. Such action would be very unwise, both on the part of parents and board as it. would completely demoralize school i e, destroy discipline and make board and faculty ridicu ous. It would be public acknowledgment that the children not only run the home but the schools, in (h;v i'!i f,l,ly,ot paren.ts 10 el'co'-npre and foster respect nPn, i'1'0" fn1' co,lsj'tull authority, not encourage its defiance and overthrow. The board is entitled to the support of parents and the obedience of children. UPP"H COND By VIOLET DARE TMK UNDHAY IIOMK Madeline- Lindsay was six years old, lyit her manner nnd thmjKiits wore frequently far older, she wns a thin, nervous child, badly spoil ed, nnd with no Idea ot mlndinK anyone. She danced up the wide ntnfrwny In front of Marie, chiU torlng llko a niajiplo, nnd then ran down the hall nnd started up an other flight. "Wo could have taken the ele vator,' alio remarked, "but I don't llko It, You aee, I ' fine broke off suddenly. Marie understood tho roaion an hour hit tor when the housekeeper came up to tho nursery to ask If Miss Made lino had been riding in lie ele vator that morning. A cushion that belonged on Us seat was misa IiiK', and "Now, you needn't nay I took It"' Madeline broke n tlio house keeper reached the point. You nl wnvA think I'yt taken IhittgV "Well, you always do!" tho house keeper retorted not at ajl Hi awe of the younjy he rest. "4Xow Miss Mndellne, tf you will just tell me where that cushion Is 1' It Ret It; your mother Is much upset about Telephone til;. News Hi Editor and Publisher matter at Salem, Oregon WIVE it, because she has guests coming to luncheon." "I didn't (nice It! I don't know a Miing; about it!" the child insisted. Marie knew that sho wns not toll ing tho truth by the way her face reddened and it was. plain that tho hou-soUoopei also knew. Sho In sisted that she must know where the cushion wan, and finally Made line gave In. she had retreatod to Marie's side she stood there clutch ing Marie's ha:.i in both hor own little cold onos. "I dMn'fc tke It." ehe declared, "but If you looked In my bedroom you might find it under mv bed .Willi t.eneral sleeping on It." I Tlios housekeeper nodded her j head aim r ply. saying "I thought pvmiv iiwjuu WOUIU JUst spank a child now and then' nnd hurried Into the bedroom, that ad Joined the nursery, she returned, a moment later with r huge satin cushion, under Iter arm and bust led away. Madeline ran Into the ( bedroom and- irelurned with a To- hikpm- puppy under her nm. "This Is Generat," she exclaim ,ed to Marie. "Daddy gave him to me, and be doesn't like hie besket. and I'm nut going to make him sleep on the floor! I'll take that pillow again tho very first chance 1 get!" "Oh, don't do that!" Mario ex claimed; then, as a sulky look came over Madeline's face, "let's make a cushion for General, you and I. ! We'll go to a store and you can ,pick out tho cloth, and then we'll 'make It together." I Madeline's thin little face flush ed, with pleasure. ' "And you'll show me how to sew?" sho cried delightedly. "I can do It mysolf? Oh, como along, quickN" It did not occur to Maria, to ask for a car to take them to tho shop ping district. They set out on foot, took a bus, and returned the same way. An hour after the cushion had been put in Its place in the elevator Marie nnd Madeline were back in the nursery, hard at work, Madeline was enchanted with the Idea of sewing and although hor stitches wore long and uneven, she showed real ability to handle her needle. Marie taught her a little French rhyme as they worked, correcting the child's accent and explaining the meaning of tho words, delight ing In the nuleknesfl with which Madeline learned. Sho was an un usually bright child, but Marie could see that she would not try to learn anything unless it really Interested her. They wore just finishing the cush ion, late In the aternoon, when Her bort Lindsay sauntered Into the nur scry. Madeline Jumped up and show ed him tho cushion. "Isn't this beautiful?" she de manded. "I made it all mysolf. That is well, Miss Lane helped mo," she added, as she caught his quizzical smllo. "It's percctly beautiful," ho as sured her. "Is it for me?" "Oh, of course; I made it just for you,'' Madolino declared, as glibly as if sho were telling the truth. 'I'd llko to talk with you if you DUMB DORA I X0 NOO UKE Nog PCTOQ.E.5 BOBBIE?

"There are just a few things that Mrs. Lindsay and I would like to have Madolino study; I think she's old 'enough to learn a bit of arithmetic, and hor mother wants her to have as much Kronen as possible. If you'll come to the library at five, I'll not keep you long." Mario liked his friendly man ner, and could not help contrasting it with his wife's, haughtiness. She wondered if she ought to tell him that Madeline was not telling the truth about the cushion, which ho had taken off to tho library. Tomorrow New Trials.
