HALLUCI
NATIONS AND
HUNCHES
Our winter weather appears to have
outlived its welcome some time ago.
From a general standpoint the out
look for business this summer looks
better than for some time.
America's credit system is reaching
into the odd corners. A dollar down
will buy most ar-thing you happen
to fancy.
Early indications are to the effect
that Salem's new mayor will keep
things moving as lively as his name
would indicate.
Football rules makers have been at
it again. But it will take a lot more
of alterations before the superficial
observer will mistake the game for
tennis or ping pong.
President Coolidge has suggested
that poor farms be converted into
forests. The smart man has already
suggested that Billy Sunday be ap
pointed to do the converting.
This is St Patrick's day which we
can celebrate for the sake of the good
man himself. Happy for his memo
ry that March 17 wasn't loaded down
with such a tradition as February 2
or April 1. The reason, doubtless that
St Patrick is in such general favor is
that he offers a day of respite during
lent '
"Crabbing about taxes is a sign of
old age and an index that the individ
ual cannot keep pace with the times"
C. P. Bishop told a Salem group the
other day. This is a little sentiment
that like that sentence "Every day, in
every way" etc., people might read
over twice a day for the general ben
efit Nevada is having its occasional call
to the lime light. Weepah is the
scene of the latest gold rush. With
the assistance of electricity and gaso
line a gold rush now days sprouts ear
ly, grows swiftly and is harvested in
record time. The burro now is suf
ficiently rare that when one puts in
an appearance the fact i3 telegraphed
to the ends of the earth. It is about
time for the old prospector to mount
a drygoods box or a stump and re
mark that "Things ain't what they
used to be."
Speaking of "modernization," the
story of the woman and her three
children who wandered in the snow on
Paisley mountain until two children
froze to death and the mother herself
was so badly frozen that one foot had
to be amputated, is a reminder that
the veneer of civilization wears pretty
thin.
Parkman, the historian, tells in his
vivid way of the Algonquin Indians
who loafed along the shore of Lake
Superior during the summer and when
winter came wandered into the wilder
ness in search of game. He says,
"Women and children, men and dogs
lie crouched together around the fire.
They stretch their benumbed fingers
over the embers while the wind whis
tles through the fir trees like a gale
through the rigging of a frigate and
the narrow concave of their wigwam
sparkles with the frostwork of their
congealed breath. In vain they beat
the magic drum and call upon their
guardian Manitou. The wary moose
keeps aloof; the bear lies close within
his hollow tree. Starvation stares
them in the face.: And now the hunt
er can seek no more. Stiff and stark
with sunken cheek and shriveled lip
he lies beneath the snow drift until
with teeth and claw the famished wild
cat strives in vain to pierce the frig
id marble of his limbs." A compari
son with the Paisley mountain case
would be in favor of the aborigi
nals. The white man's absence seems
to have been to consult his own con
venience. Compared to him the dog
whose bodily warmth kept the young
est child alive was a specimen of re
finement and culture.
Summing up Parkman concludes:
"Such harsh schooling as this is
thrown away on the incorrigible mind
of the northern Algonquin. Still in
the season of plenty he forgets the
time of need. Still the sleet and the
snows descend upon his houseless
head." It may be added that when an
infatuated 15 year old girl wants to
marry a 30 year old man, any force
that can dissuade her is something
that advances the progress of civilization.

(March 15, 1912)
The city council purchased C. G.
Griffa's wells and land for $850.
The Hirschberg railroad made a

teachers' institute at Dallas. At
this time Monmouth had twelve train
arrivals and twelve departures daily.
Benjamin Leask of Portland was
stopping with his brother here.
Messrs. Miller & Son, proprietors
of the Monmouth hotel, were planning
a concrete addition to the building.
(March lfi, 1917)
A Hungarian orchestra was a lyce
um attraction at the Normal school.
Ray Thomas, son of E. L. Thomas
of this city, was reported to have re
ceived a gunshot wound in one thumb.
He was with the Canadian soldiers in

The city council ordered in 37 par
cels of sidewalk, totalling 3900 lineal

The Golden Rule Class
The Golden Rule class of the Chris
tian church Bible school was enter
tained by Mrs. J. L. Murdock last Fri
day afternoon. All enjoyed a pleas
ant time sewing and visiting and at
the end of the afternoon a bountiful
lunch was served by Mrs. Murdock
and Mrs. Moore, after which the host
ess showed the ladies the many con
veniences of her new house.
Mrs. Jane Evans of Salem was a
visitor during the afternoon and Mrs.
K. H. Sickafoose of Newberg a caller.
The next meeting will be in the

Palmer Certificate Granted
The Palmer penmanship certifi
cate has just been granted to Ber
nice Faley. Other students who

RULES
Why must O.N.S. have rules so
much more rigid than her sister in
stitutions at Eugene and Corval
lis? What are these rules for?
How shall they be carried out, in
letter or in spirit?
O.N.S. is like an industrial plant.
All those who line' up at her doors
with a letter of application and
recommendation in their hands are
people who are looking for a job.
They are people who are asking to
be put through the refining pro
cess, seeking to be subjected to in
tellectual forces in order that they
may be capable of passing up an
other rung of the ladder of life.
To undergo this process of
change in a comparatively short
time, it is essential that part of
the foundation be character. Be
cause the time is so short and hu
manity is so human, the formation
of character needs strict disciplin
ing. The army makes soldiers in a
few short weeks by strict methods.
The Training School of Citizenry
must use the same methods to get
desired results.
Why cannot this kind of an in
stitution have the same rules as
the colleges and universities?
There are two reasons. The em
ployer and the employee." The em
ployer, the people of the communi
ty, demand high moral standards
and will not permit laxity of be
havior in those who shape the
lives of their children. They will
not permit even those vagaries that
they accept as part of the youth
life of today. The other reason is
the student. He bias chosen to
grope in the kind of an intellectual
atmosphere that O.N.S so ade
quately provides. He knows that
the time of preparation is short
that non-essentials must be exclud
ed to make room for the important
things.
There is no article long in the
market for which there is no de
mand. There is a big demand for
capable instructors with the confi
dence of their school behind them
and the force of character by which
this confidence is authorized.
(In the Lamron)

Be Not Ashamed of Worthy Ambition
In Abraham Lincoln's first political
speech, he said to the voters of Sang
amon county:
"Every man is said to have his
particular ambition. Whether this
be true or not, I can say, for one, that
I have no other so great as that of
being truly esteemed by my fellow
men by rendering myself worthy of
their esteem."
That was Lincoln's early ambition
and one which subsequent events in
dicate he kept throughout his life.
Contrast with that Napoleon's
"A Reader" Writes
As the sun is sinking in the Golden
west
Tho Monmouth Herald goes to press.
To Herald its tidings far and near,
To the, people that are waiting its
good cheer.
Boys and girls, whole families indeed
Are awaiting their turn the Herald to
read,
With eyes that are glowing and anti
cipation great.
They are not disappointed, I am glad
to relate.
For in that good paper you will find
Something that is helpful, good and
kind, 1
For the editor and wife and working
staff, too,
Are always writing something that is
helpful to you.
A paper that gives both sides of a
question,
Be it state news, local or election;
And on investigation you will find it
true,
Just as the Herald gave it to you.
The Monmouth Herald's the paper for
you.
At the end of each year you should
renew,
And peruse the lines from beginning
to end,
For on the Herald you can depend.
For all of its thoughts are weighed
with care,
Before the lines are printed there,
For printing something that isn't
true
Would always carry a weight with
you.
And never again would you rely
Upon the Herald nor its reply.
But reading the lines and reading
them through,
You will find that the Herald is the
paper for you;
So send money and goodwill too,
And the Monmouth Herald will be
mailed to you. A Reader.

professed life ambition:
"I propose to make tho Mediterra

In the two the whole life story of
each is contained their achieve
ments and their places in the mind oi
posterity.
What is your ambition? ,
If you didn't have to tell anyone
hut just, by wishing after you have
gone to bed could make it come true,
whut one thing would you like to do
most?
Would it be to make one hundred
thousand dollars, put it into, safe
bonds, and have an income assured
that would enable you to be protected
from want the rest of your life?
Would it be to be elected to a high
office, to write a "best seller", or get
in the movies, or what?
Would it be to have something to
do something, or to be something?
Just what is your particular am
bition? There are two things to remember
about ambition.
Ambition of the, right sort is one
of the most valuable characteristics
of a worthwhile man. If is nothing
to be ashamed of.
The ready idea was put into words
by one of the true gentlemen of the
world, Sir Philip Sidney, who, in an
age of hypocrisy wore the ideals of
chivalry in his heart.
"To be ambitious of true honor, of
true glory and perfection of our na
tures, is me very principle ana in
centive of virtue; but to be ambitious
of titles, place, of ceremonial respects
and civil pageantry, is as vain and
little as the things are which we
court."

Of the Bishop Clothing company leaves this week for St
Louis to attend the annual convention of the National Retail
Clothiers and Furnishers association convening from the 21st to
the 25th. There will be perhaps twenty-five hundred retail
clothiers and furnishers and clothing manufacturers from all
sections of the United States. The addresses given and sugges
tions made will be by the ablest men in the manufacturing de
partments as well as the retail and in all of its bearings will be
on the day programs. In addition there will be one great Style
show of models in suits and overcoats as well as all kinds of
suiting fabrics. Special stress will be laid on the 1927 slogan
"Dress for the occasion" and lessons and full instructions will be
given on those points to the retailers attending that they may
know authoritatively what to suggest to the suit or overcoat
buyer.
The Bishop mills are preparing to emphasize that feature
the coming season.
Mr. Bishop will, no doubt, have more to say to the public
later.
