THE BIGHTS MD WRONGS OF CHILDHOOD The keynote of the newer world's attitude to the child will be thoroughness, which means enlightened and efficient justice. The state will put avay the un certain and tinkering methods which it has heretofore employed in dealing with the child. Eng land has introduced a system of old age pensions, which is peculi arly revolting to those who have never been distressed by the spec tacle of men thrown to the ash heap after twenty or thirty or forty years of faithful service in the industrial army. Some day a wisely far-seeing state will introduce a system of child pensions or child boun les. Under present economic condi tions, child-labor cannot be pre vented by laws even when loosely drawn and lightly enforc ed. In the event of the bread winner of the family being lost through death or desertion, het state ought to allow the needed subsidy to the home in order that the child may be kept in school or in the home and be kept away from industry. Through what might be called child pensions, which would really be home pensions, the state can prevent child-labor and maintain the in tegrity of the home of the widow or deserted wife. Stephen S. Wise, Ph. D., in the Pacific Monthly for August To Build Greenhouse J. M. McDonald will 'erect a greenhouse on his property in South Monmouth this. fall. Mr. McDonald hz? been insnoot;rf :he kttat mode's in gree.vnoiHt architecture and will build on modern lines. He will construct a small house at first and as the business demands more space, he will add to it Tnis will fill a long felt want of this part , of Oregon. There is a large amount of early vegetables brought here lrom California and Portland. It is to be hoped that Mr. Mc Donald will meet with sufficient encouragement to enable him to ouild a large greenhouse by spring. Trip to Rockaway Beach.
