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

Madeline- Lindsay was six years
old, lyit her manner nnd thmjKiits
wore frequently far older, she wns
a thin, nervous child, badly spoil

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

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

I Tlios housekeeper nodded her

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

"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.

loave," Lindsay told Marie. "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.
