Good Points In The Message.
The message of Governor Pierce to the legislature
contains some excellent recommendations, well worthy
of consideration and action by the lawmaking body. In
uiwcussing Biiujecis m wnicu ue is not tiiiuiubiuu iiuiiticm
ly the governor shows both clarity of thought and sound
ness of conclusion. When ho comes , to questions and
men involved with him in his own political millings
around ho either loses or abandons Jus powers or logic.
Each of the governor's message proposals, there-
lore needs to be considered on its own merits. Xne
governor's avoiding of the people for the way they voted
on measures in which his political fortunes were bound
up, and the rather school-masterly tone in which he tells
the legislature what it ought to do are a little provok-
ing, but any resentment because of. these things ought
not to-be allowed to react against the message as a
1 1 J 1 1 1 1 i 1 il. 11 . 1?
- wnoie, or xo nmaer legislation aiong worin-wnuc uues
which the governor plainly marks out.
The governor recommends ratification of the feder
al child labor amendment. It 6hould be ratified. He
recommends further consideration of the question of
consolidation of state departments. The Hall resolution
for a commission to study the question should be adopt
ed. It will carry out the governor's recommendation on
this point, lie recommends revival ot tax supervision
Jcommissions in all counties. It is a sound suggestion.
'Ho recommends consolidation of state traffic forces
under one head. It should be done. He wants deposits
of state funds distributed among various banks under
ia competitive system. Ho wants legislation to protect
tho irreducible school fund. Ho wants the property
tax for tho world war state aid commission cut to one
Lalf mill because it has been found that tho present tax
of one mill is more than is needed.
Each of these is a subject in which there may be
rather ready recognition of merit. There are other topics
in tho governor's message worthy of serious thought
by tho lawmakers. And not any of them should bo lost
to sight because of a determination, however provoked,
to discipline tho governor.
The New York World says it has made a nation
wide survey of the situation as regards the federal child
labor amendment, and as a result is convinced that the
amendment will not bo ratified. Maybe." But in its
main story on the results of the survey the World puts
.Oregon in the list of states expected to ratify the
amendment. In a story from Salem, which the. World
uses among similar ones from other state capitals, it is
predicted that the house of tho legislature will ratify
and tho senate will reject. In an editorial in tho same
edition of tho World on tho subject the statement is
made that "Oregon joins Texas, Tennessee and Maine
in the list of states opposed to the amendment." Wo
there you .hnve it three ways. Tako your choice. If tho
World's .survey is not moro, accurate concerning other
males man it is concerning urcgoit, us vniuo us im in
dex of what will happen to the amendment is of littlo
value. 1 1
ist ran be made to succeed only
through the extension of bounties
and loans provided by the pdblio.
whiob in other words means the in
dustries more or lens directly related
to agriculture.
For a Conference of Navies.
(New York World)
Senator liorah baa announced bi
willingness to cut In half bis reio
lutinu calling for an inter-national
conference, lie ia ready to drop tbs
idea or naving economic questions
disemsed and stick to naval arma
menu. It seeins to The World tba
with this change he Improves his
resolution.
For It is clear by this time that a
general international conference is
likely to b succesniul only In so far
as it Has a definite program. Mr
Hughes proved that with bis naval
ratio. The Dawes committee proved
it with a formula. In the wide field
of international finance, of debta and
demands for reparations, there is too
little accepted in tbe way of general
principles and too much that has
never had the benefit of impartial and
expert study for an statesman to
risk a definite and explicit program
now.
The World believes tbat Senator
Borah will best promote the chances
for on economic conference by pre
paring the ground with another con
ference on navies first. Mr. Borah
ia ready to do thla with his resolti
tion. We hope that he will have the
import of tbe administration. Mr.
Coolldge need not tear that a con
ference to stabilise and expand the
Washington treatiea will interfere
with the league's efforts for land dis
armament. It will not interfere. It
will help, Instead, by contributing
fresh encouragement to the leagues
own work for peace.
Mayor and Preacher.
(Corvallis Gazette-Times)
It aeems to use that Mayor Baker
had tbe beat of the argument with
the Portland divine who twitted him
about hia past life. That was an un
Christian act fur anyone to do. From
minister it came with particularly
poor grace in view of Uic famous
lines "Ijtt him who Is without sin
enst the first stone." We imagine that
if, those lines wore a universal code,
there would be no stono throwing.
Tho mayor also gave the parson a not
shot when he told bim that if all the
members of his church were law
abiding cltizns there would be no law
enforcement problems. Everybody
who ia not blind knows that George
Baker then spoke tbe truth.
TODAY
(Continued from page one)
Back iii tho neolithic ago thero were kitchen nnd
dons that is community dumping grounds for kitchen
and. household refuse of all kinds. Some of the most
interesting discoveries concerning tho life and activities
of that ago have been dug out of tho kitchen middens.
But kitchen middens went out of stylo along with stone
hatchets and Bkin cloth6s. One may get a Very good
idea of how a kitchen midden looked by walking just
across tho Ferry street bridge and turning to the left.
One sees things of metal instead of stone, but the
vegetablo stuff is the same. Porhaps 5000 years hence
somebody will unearth our kitchen middon and read
therefrom the story of 1925 customs in Eugono.
Q'hero is a proposal sponsored by tho state editorial
association to ask tho legislature to do away with the
candidates' campaign pamphlet, cut down tho pamphlet
on mensures and substitute display advertising in all
the newspapers of tho state. We have no dotaila of this
latter phaso of the plan but at first blush it looks like
something the taxpaying public might like to do with
out. Certainly there should bo no effort to get the
stnto to do any newspaper advertising whoso valuo is
not readily demonstrable.

not hesitate, when faced with a charge of accepting a

COMES A KK.ALITY
Chapter (11
For awhile 1 was upset and wor
ried by tho way Nancy persisted in
staying out late at night. She was
so splendid in other ways, and such
a help to me that I hated to lose her.
Each day I intended having a good
talk and an understanding with her,
but 1 weakly procrastinated.
I had to confess to myself that I
was fearful of bow she would take
it. Perhaps sho would be unreason
able and leave nt once. She had be
come accustomed to my ways and I
dreaded the thoughts of drilling in a
new maid.
.Then as the days went by I pur'
posely tried to close my eyes to thia
one fault. It was only days after
ward that I realised what a mistake
I had made in overlooking it. Some
thing terrible happened that made
my "iiiiud go back and remember
Nancy's meeting with the strange
man on the park bench, and the sig
nificance of her questionable late
hours nt night. Such habits should
have warned me sooner of the pos
sibility of undesirable acquaintances.
It was along toward the ead of
.Innuary that Kent came home one
night full of enthusiasm about a lit
tle cottage up in Connecticut.
He had plctuSVs of it, and I soon
joined him in ardent fervency.
"If we want it we'll hare to art
quick," he told me, "The owuer has
had a big collapse down lu Wall
Street aud lost over HO.OlM In less
thsn a month. He wants rash ami
will make a consideration on the price
to the right party," Keut ex-plained.
"How much does he want, fur it,
Kent?" I asked hopefisiy.
"1 think hell let it go at ?1LMHK
if 1 ran
close The deal this week 1 hate every
reason to think I can get it for Sill,
WW," he returned.
"Hut Kent can you can you pay
thai much, dear';" 1 interrogated
doubtfully. I could not be sure that
all Kent's rssh extravagant ways had
been entirely subdued.
"Yes, little mother that's what I
havo been working so hard for, and
planning for so carefully. You don't
know how much power and energy
you and the boy hnve put into ino
these last few years," lie answered,
with bis arm holding me close.
"ltoally, Kent'" I breathed won
deringly, my face turned up to his.
"But I want you to see the house
and bo sure you like it beforo we do
anything rash," he suggested. "I'll
stay away from the office on Wednes
day and we can both run up and look
it over well. How's that?"
"How long will it take, dear? Will
we he gone nil day?" t questioned, my
mind turning to Kent Jr. I hail
never gone away for very long and
left bim. 1 did not like the thoughts
of having to do it.
"The best part of the day. Babs
we want to look it over thoroughly,
you know." he said.
I was thoughtfully silent for I mo
ment. Kent must hnve seen the Um
of doubt on my face. I could not
hide it from him.
"What's the trouble. Babs," he
questioned eagerly.
"It's Just the thought of leaving
the boy alone all day," 1 answered.
"I'm afraid I should worry about
him dreadfully."
"Why. he won't be alone, dear. He
gets along finely with Nancy. It
will only be about seven or eight
hours," he said reassuringly.
And yet Kent's words did not sat
isfy me. The idea of leaving Kent
Jr. alone even with Nancy troubled
me. But there sremed to be no
other way out ot it. If Kent and I
were to see the little rottsge up in
Connecticut aud form our Hans for
the future we would have to go up i

Ever see a washtub
in a beauty shop?
You never saw a washtub in a beau
ty shop because washtubs and beauty
don't go together. In fact the beauty
shop is often called upon to smooth
out the wrinkles from washday wor
ries. But you can escape them both
the wrinkles and the worry by
using our Thrif - T - service. Your
bundle is carefully washed and all
flat work ironed. The remaining ar
ticles are returned damp, ready to
starch, iron or hang up to dry. And
the cost is only a few cents a pound.)
Send us your bundle this week.
