ELEVEN HUNDRED A'S ADENTER business man who offerod ft bottle of pop free to every oLUd is the Denver school whose mid term report showed an A got the shook of his Me when gome 1100 grade school youngsters turned up to olaim his bounty. And the high schools were still to bo heard frTbi little story in the day's telegraph news may start o debate. What does the incident prove Does it prove that the flarnang youth of today is a good deal more dili gent W efficient than we had been led to suppose or that the teaching of today is more efficient, or does it prove merely that youngsters will go the limit for a bottle of pop any dayt We inoline to the belief that there has been real im provement since the Denver man Btudiod his three E's, possibly in some one of the "little red schoolhouses" that some people still sigh for. We remember the "little red sohool house." Sometimes it was pretty good, but just as often it was a riot, and there was an altogether dif ferent idea than there is today. There were no Boy Boouts, 4-H clubs, athletics to absorb and direct surplus energy. The teacher was a common enemy. The pat tern for the beginner was the biggest and toughest bully in the room. Girls and sissies got "A's." Whatever faults the schools may have, we believe they oertainly have produoed a better attitude among pupils generally. Eight here in Eugeno we could prob ably come very olose to matching Denver's 1,100 A's. The big boy who lingers on year after year in his classes has almost disappeared. lie is no longer a dominant figure in the sohool sooial structure. Where he is found at all he excites only pity. In behavior and performance we have better standards today. JAZZOPERA o F course way out here in Eugene, Orogon, we "ain't had" mnoh chance to hear it Maybe it's all right, this thing oallod "Jonny Bpielt Auf," whioh has been allowed to invade the Metropolitan Opera House in New York on the general theory that it is a true tonal drama and faithful sound portrait of America, Tho tenors, we are told, warble, to the aooompnnimont of motor horns and saxophones, tho ballot dancors do a bunch of wisrcles that would call out the oops in Harlom, and thero is a soprano ana requiring a vncnnra olonner for ntmosphore. It may be music and it may bo very "brow," but we are of an old fashioned' brood that will toddle to the grave thanking Ood that Beethovon and Mozart did not hie themselves for inspiration to a soap works or a boiler laotory. To bo sure a lot of people are fed up on the old style rrrasio that tries to express the birds and the bees and the winds and the waterfalls and in these industrial rimes there are no armored knights or goldon haired fairies to nrovide horoio inspiration. Those who are. searohlng for virile, he-man mnslo no doubt fool that they must turn to traffio noises and police sirens and statio as Uw most realistic tonal representations of that whioh is most horoio and vigorous in this age. But we wondnr if it is nocossary or useful to have mi(h music We know roalistio writers who apparently boliovo the sewer is the only imnortant mRnifnRtntirvn r.f , ' t a - ...... ve. taut JT ivrvia ana we have various painter friends who would rather pnuii a wan or a carbnnole than a noso, bnt frankly, thev give us a pain in the leg. ' There was a time when the arts lived by the philoso phy of searching for the beautiful, emphasizing the noble, appealing to the imagination and Inviting tho fancies to come and play. Tha arts looked upon life ,.LJ9 ot TOnianN rather than with the "camera eye." They did not seek to shock and startle but to entertain and to inspire. A song did not hav to be a tonal photograph so long as it had majesty or melodv A song was a song. Being old fashioned we turn from jazzopcra and put on tho records of tho " go.nl old days."

When Dr. Caldwell started to prac tice medicine, back in 187S, the nerds for a laxative were not as great as they are today. People lived normal, quiet lives, ate plain, wholeoome food, and got plenty of fresh air and sun shine. But even that early there were drastic physics and purges for the relief of constipation which Dr. Caldwell did not believe were good' for human beings to put into their srstem. 8o he wrote a preemption for a laxative to be used by his pa tients. Ths prescription for constipation that he used early in his practice, und which he put in drug stores in 1892 under the name of Dr. Cald well's Syrup Pepsin, is a liquid veg etable remedy, intended for women, children and elderly people, and they need Just such a mild, safe, gentle bowel stimulant ns Syrup Pepsin. Under successful management this prescription has proven its worth and is now the largest selling liquid lax ative in the world. The fact that millions of bottles are used a year nroves that is has won the confidence j (if people who needed It to get re 1 lief from hendnches, biliousness, flat- mence, indigestion, loss oi appetite nnd sleep, bad breath, dyspepsia, colds nnd fevers. Millions of families are now never without Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, nnd if ynu will once start using It you will also always hart i handy for emergencies. It is particularly pleatiu t ff that the most of it it mi mothers for themselves and dren, though Syrup Pepsin vnliiahle for elderlv Detroit. stores have the gemrom Vol NUT BUTTIR AND MARGARINE Because of tha expense and care re quired for Its production, butter has always been s costly article of diet and human beings have striven for many yeare to dlacover a good sub sUtute.

Shortly before the Krunco-Irussian wur. Napoleon III offered what waa in those davs a large reward (or the invention at a suitable butter substi tute. This was finally awarded to a Frenchman named Mege-Mouries, who experimented much and spent many sleepless nights, until at last he pro duced s product which he called oleo margarine. He afterwards shortened the name to margarine as it is still known on the continent of Europe. At Dresent there are nnlv twn kind. of margarine manufactured. One is composed of various animal fats, such as beef fat and pork fat, mixed with vegetable fats, salt and milk The other commonly called nut margarine, contains no animal fats but Is mads oi vegetable rats, salt and milk. According to the commissioner of niernal revenue, the principal artl . lea of food used in tbe manufac turing of margarine are: Oleo oil, oleo stork, oleo stearin, nautarl lard, peanut oil, oocoanut oil, cottonsoed :l. milk, butter and salt. Of course, urioua manufacturers select differ--iit blends of these foods or may omit ome of them. .Many of the packages ot mar-arine sold on the market dis imctly state exactly what they con- .un so that the compositiou is not a .secret, .Many families now use margarine in place of butter.
