Rising After Misfortune
Perhaps the most striking thing about the dis­
asters that occur in this country, is the immediate
action which people take to repair the d&inage, and
go about their affairs as usilai. That has been finely
demonstrated in the cities that suffered from the
recent storm in California, it was splendidly dis­
played in Florida after last year’s hurricane, and
one sees it in almost any city after a bad fire.
Whatever the faults of our people, they spend
mighty little time in bewailing their misfortunes.
They pick up the pieces and go on, and usually put
something' better in the place of the tiling destroyed.
Telepathy
Th«, English Society for Psychical research is
making experiments to find out what there is in
telepathy, or the effects produced on a person’s mind
by someone’s else’g mind, without use of ordinary
means of communication.
There are innumerable instances where ideas
seem to be communicated, without speech, writing,
or signs of any kind. These instances have given
rise to a widespread belief that there are means of
mental communication that so far have eluded
human knowledge. These experiments will be watch­
ed with keen interest, and in these marvellous* times
we are all ready to accept new wonders.
Twenty Thousand Jobless Teachers
Twenty thousand teachers lack positions in
this country, according to information given the
New England vocational Guidance association. This
is qifite a contrast to the situation some years ago,
when there was widespread complaint that teachers
could not be had.
The reason why many of these teachers are
unemployed, is said to be that they lack experience
pr are not properly prepared. The standards of
the people are getting higher on education. Here
in Oregon anyway, they desire a teacher to have
some special preparation foi thhftrvrk. Wo expect
the doctors who take care of our bodies to liave
expert training, and the people who shape the mind
need some professional education too.
Progressive Sentiment
The advance of a community depends very large­
ly on whether sentiment in that community is
favorable to new ideç». If people throw cold water
on every new proposition that is suggested, such
a town will not go ahead. If there is a general
sentiment that the community can do the things
that are done elsewhere, then encouragement is
given to all progressive movements.
All of us can keep watch of the advance move­
ments in our home towns, and the progressive things
that are done elsewhere, and give such movements
our hearty support, by our votes in municipal elec­
tions, by our presence and enthusiasm at public
meetings where these ideas are discussed, by favor­
able comment in conversation, aud by gifts propor­
tionate to our means when the effort is made to
raise money.
Home Town Prices
There are a number of reasons why the prices
of merchandise in a town like Ashland should be
lower than they are in the great metropolitan cent­
ers. Ix>wer rents, lower costs of real estate, lower
cost of living for workpeople, arc among the rea­
sons why it costs less to operate a business in a town
Jike ours.
In a place like ours, the demand is for sub­
stantial goods at a reasonable price for people of
moderate means. In large cities there seem to be
a lot of people who s|>end extravagantly, or who
want sfunething having a stylish appearance tem­
porarily, but which lacks substantial quality. These
tendencies result in the sale of a great deal of high-
priced stuff, also goods that do not have real value.
Better buy oT your home stores, where they cater
to the substantial needs of people of moderate and
limited incomes.
