Let The Band Play. Through the generosity of citizens of Eugene, the fine public spirit of $e Odd Fellows band and its mem bers and tne eriorts or Tne Uuard, Eugene is to have a series of free outdoor concerts for the remainder of the summer season. It is an enterprise which The Guard believes to toe worth while. The movement, inaugurated only yesterday, has met with a spontaneous approval which indicates at once a public demand and public appreciation. This is a good sign. It is a healthy sign.- It shows that Eugene people are fond 01 music. It is evidence that they Jike the tine type of music which the Odd Fellows band, known to them all, plays so well. ,. A considerable fund will be needed for expenses connected with' the giving of this series of concerts. The Guard is asking the public to contribute to this fund, which will be administered by a committee of the Chamber of Commerce and for which a full accounting will be returned. There will bo no waste and the cause is worthy. The Presbyterian Synod. Today the Oregon Presbyterian synod opens its ses sion in Eugene. Its delegates are welcome. The city is honored in their presence. 4 The people .here hope they will like ns well enough to 'want to come again. The Presbyterian faith is an old established one. In its form Presbyterianism is one of the three principal systems of ecclesiastical polity of the Christian church, occupying a position between episcopacy, wherein the supreme authority is in a diocesan bishop, and Congre gationalism, wherein the authority is in ,the church con gregation. Eepresentative presbyters gathered into a council or presbytery of office-bearers chosen by . the people, rule in the Presbyterian church. Presbyterian ism is representative government in church affairs. The Presbyterian faith is one of the rook-founda-tioned faiths of Christianity. Its teachings are well "known. Its form of worship is simple. John Calvin, a Frenchman and is its most widely known exponent, was an outstanding figure in the work of the reformation, lie became, while yet under 30 years of age, known all over Europe as the leader and consolidator of that movement. , O Presbyterianism came to America in 1562. Its be ginnings were small. Its development has boon great. Its people have boen and are a worthy people, deserving well of their follows and enjoying the respect of their neighbors regardless of religious affiliation. And so the presence in Eugene of the Oregon synod delegates is generally welcomed. ' i ' The fear that the United States is becoming a land of aliens finds no support in an estimate of population just issued by the national bureau of economic resoarch. It indicates that there were 1,238,000 births in the United States last year. Of course some of theso babies aro of foreign parentage, but they are all United States citi zens, or will be when they attain to years of majority. The same estimate gives 112,826,000 as tho present pop ulation of the country. We grow. Can You Beat It!

Petitions to open streets, petitions to im prove streets and proceedings to pnvo streets feature very largely in the counoil's deliberations. .... It is doubtful if anyono is bettor qunlifiod to sponk on rural welfare , work than Father E. V. O'Hnra, of Eugene, who delivered an address on that subjoct at an international conference at Toronto. Father 0 'llnra has tireless energy and a high intelligence and he has used thom both in acquiring mastery of his subject. Who wouldn't be an editor! Tillamook, whero the state editorial association is to gather ton days henco, is heralded as the "land of cheese, trees and ocean breeze." That isn't half of it. Red and blue huckleberries, clams, crabs, porgies and salmon aro only a few of the other items. Any investment of public funds in tho welfare of children is a wise investment. Tho city council wrought well in appropriating the comparatively insignificant amount necessary to continue playground activities for the remainder or tho-scheduled season. Sam R. Mosher, as president of the city council, has served Eugene well. It is to bo hopod a way may bo found to keep him where ho is, notwithstanding tho mere incident of his change of abodo.

Rippling Rhymes Uy WALT MASON STARTING WRONG ITefore he married Sunrh Jane he built a rottage in the lane, and fur nished it, with loving care, from nttic to the qellar stair, lie thought how joy would light her eyes, wit en he had sprung his small surprise. "Few brides," he said, "however Bweer, find homes nil ready and complete" And when the pastor, lnrge ns life, had deftly made them man nnd wife, the husband led his blooming bride to that new house, and stepped inside. "Tiiis is your home," he proudly said; "the floor, the roof tree overhead, the lovely chromos on the wall, the gor geous jvhatnot in the . hall I bought them all, and not a cent is owed by me to any gent. From room to room she slowly crept, and then sat on the floor and wept. She sprinkled plain nnd fancy tears aud gnnshed her teeth and wrung her ears. The things her loving James had bought to make the home a beauty spot but filled her bosom with despair; discordant colors everywhere; and ohnirs and tables thnt were screams, nnd pictures that would spoil one's dreams. She could not bear to tell the truth to James about that misfit booth, and' so she lived among his junk while her artis tic spirit shrunk; and oft the weary husband sighed, "Why Is she sad, my fair young bride? Wuy does she shud der when she views tho lovely pur ples, piuks and blues which nmke our cottage nil the style? Wbnt can I do to tnnke&er ainile?' INKY THINKS v Opportunity knocks but once.

Out in front of the hotel they pro cured a taxicab aud started up town, lloailind was eager to show Leah her latest victory, and not a small part of it was the fact that Guy ap proved and had gone with her. Guy was not so happy. As the taxi drew nearer and nearer to its destination he became doubtful and uneasy. His conscience waB troubling him. "I can't stay but just a minute, Rosalind. I'll have to hustle back to the office," he explained as they neared the Dell bouse. "Oh please, Guy! I need you," Ros alind coaxed. She slipped a gloveless hand Into the mass of stubby black curls at the back of her neck. Her eyes were dancing with joy and antici pation. . , "But I have to hurry back to the office. I've missed over two hours al ready," Guy argued. "Couldn't you just not go back at all this afternoon? You -haven't had any lunch and I'm starved, too. Please, we can go down town again and have tea some place and dance,' Rosalind caught Guy's hand and drew it over in her lap. "Don't be foolish. I'd love to do it, but I can't afford to lose a good job by being too rash," Guy explain ed smiling at her. Rosalind's brows puckered heavily. She patted Guy's hand as it rested in her lap. "l'ou shouldn't have to work like that. It's too hard and and beastly." She looked into Guy's eyes with a sudden seriousness which faded the smiles from her lips. "If only you were my brother or, or something vastly nicer you wouldn't- have to work like that." She dropped his hand' end jumped for the taxi door with flaming cheeks' as the car stopped suddenly in front of the Dell hnise. Guy'B blue eyes followed Rosalind's graceful form as she sprang up the steps without waiting for him. He turned to pay the taxi driver. His cheeks and brain were flushed with the meaning of Rosalind's impetuous remark. He felt suddenly very con science of the thinness of his wal let. He bit his lip. It would not be ha! bad to have a satisfying fat purse without havin to work like a dog for it. He hurried after Rosalind. Just then he did not mind very much what Leah thought. lie had done nothing wrong by going with Rosa lind to have her hair bobbed. Besides he was not really engaged to Leah, lie had never definitely committed himself. He didn't believe he had real ly ever intended to marry her. Leah was a dandy girl and they had been good pals together. As he reached the porch, Leah was just opening the front door for Ros alind. He followed Rosalind into the hall. His face was flushed with a strange new excitement. . Rosalind jerked off her hat and shook her black curls in front of Leah. There was something flaunting in the expression of Rosalind's dar ing black eyes. Leah caught the look and its meaning and she stood her ground, with the dignity of a princess. Even Guy caught the glint of chal lenge which flashed between them. They were like two superb young ani mals watching each other in silent hatred. Guy felt decidedly uneasy. He would have liked exceedingly to have been able to run for cover. Ljko all men. he was a coward in tho presence of feminine animosity. Leah refused to give Rosalind any satisfaction.
