BETTER BOYS We believe every Maupin fath er and mother will be interested in a statement made by "Uncle Joe" Cannon a few days ago, and now going the rounds of the press. "Uncle Joe," for manj years leader of the lower house of Congress, says the world b crowing better because records of institutions for the correctior of juveniles shows a steady de crease in population. He haf studied the reports from natonlj his own state. Illinois, but fron many other states and finds that fewer boys are being sentenced to reformatories, industrial schools and houses of detention than at any time in recent years "Uncle Joe" argues that this reflects better home condition. and also a more general determ ination on the part of parents to see that their boys are not per mitted to spend all their time in idleness when they are not in school. He feels sure parents are coming to realize that it is their duty to encourage their boys in learning a trade, with the result that more and more of them are showing a desire, at an early age, ty earn money. "Uncle Joe" is optimistic, and sees a generation ahead far more skilled in industrial and com mercial life than any generation that has gone before. That cer tainly ought to be good news to fathers and mothers who have boys growing up to take their places in the ranks of that gen eration. In the matter of mixed farm ing we call attention to the pro fits of one rancher living near Criterion. Last year this man milked 14 cows, had a profit of better than 11,000 from them. He sold hogs to the amount of $500, had a lot of chickens to turn off, besides clearing a neat sum on his grain. Handlers on the Flat, where a little water is available, can do even better. - The Bend Chamber of Com merce sends out an interesting little pamplet descriptive of the Bcenic beautie3 surrounding that city and invites the editors, who will go to Prir.eville next week, to make a side trip and take in Dend and environments. The suggestion is a good one and no doubt will be accepted by many of the visiting newspaper men. The old pessimistic cry of "no ill URANCE Morris crop" is again heard, but condi tions do not bear out the holler. While grain is spotted in some places by late frosts, still in the main, Maupin's wheat growing area will be on the map this har vest with a better than usual crop of wheat. Brother Jonas of the Prineville Journal advises visiting editors to bring their golf clubs when they attend the state editorial meeting at his town this week. If he had said fishing tackle we would have taken him up, but golf, humph! When ranchers from a far-off section come to Maupin to buy their harvesting machinery they advertise the fact that, from an economical standpoint our deal ers save them money. . The man who puts self above his town anJ its upbuilding1 is to be likened to the old dog who; couldn't eat the hay and wouldn t et the horse have it. The Fourth of July is approach ing. Is Maupin patriotic enough to celebrate the event in a fitting manner? Helping The Orphans Paul Philips of Pullman, Wash ington, who has undertaken the task of building up the beef and dairy industry on a 15,000 acre farm in southern Russia, reports that the Near Fast Relief orph ans on whose behalf the farm is run, raised over 200 tons of vege tables for their own support last year. Philips is receiving the cooperation of the Department of Agriculture in Washington and of the Swiss and French govern ments in his efforts to teach the orphans modern methods of agri culture and so hasten their com ing to self-support. Picked Up About Town Verne Fischer, in commenting upon the polish situation, says, "maybe there would be less fighting in Poland if thej had two baseball leagues and a pen nant to attract their attention." Landlord Caton of Hotel Kelly comments thusly: ' average man's wife When the insists on i his going to market with her, he knows it is not for his company she wants as much as it is some- one to carry the market basket.' "Judging by the way they like to keep money in circula tion," vociferates George Mc Donald, "there are mighty few misers among the growing gen eration." "Dad" Fischer is rather cynical. His latest outpouring is: "many young people these days are inclined to be too fly, 'but the fishermen on the Do 'schutes cannot be too fly, for I they get their Hies of me." . Jack Staats saya "what makes j life so hard is that the fellow 1 with a small salary always lias bit? bills." "If every women was as keen about keeping sweet as she is about keeping young," sings Ben Fraley, "divorce lawyers would starve to death." " Why is it." askes Bob Wilson, that beauty and work never are never close companions?" Since John Confer has been shearing sheep he says "the 'blah blah of some men sound like 'bah bah' to him." Jnlius Shepflin says. " sorr.e men are so crooked that the only way they can walk in a straight line is to hike back ward." "Shorty" Foster usually main tains an even disposition, but when a man brings in a Ford of the vintage of 20 years ago, and wants it converted into a Cadil lac, "Shorty" waxes wroth. He says "the Lord made . the heavens and earth in six days, bit it is beyond the power of man to accomplish what the customer asks to be done in a lifetime.' 1 I Eleven Years Ago From The TimejJune 18, '15 Dufur defeated Manpin in the baseball game here last Sunday. Up to the eighth inning Maupin was scoreless, but in that inning they gathered two. The game ended in Dufur's favor, 3-2. N. V. Finn had the misfortune of getting his limb broken and badly crushed last Tuesday while logging for Chas. Walker. He wa3 taken to The Dalles hos pital. The new road just completed by H. M. Greene and Earl Tuni son makes travel over the Cri-terion-Maupin route Bhorter, and allows adjacent land owners to straighten their fences. James H. Brown, who had a homestead two miles east of Bakeoven, was found dead Mon day by a comrade, - heart failure being supposed to be the immed iate cause of death. Interment i was made Wednesday in the Buzzan Cemetery, Rev. R. u. Ellis of thi3 place conducting the services. Mr. and Mrs. R. F. Smith have taken charge of the River view hotel, having opened for business the first of the week. Plank was delivered on the steel bridge Wednesday, to re place that in present use, which is becoming somewhat worn. E. J. Fischer say3 he ha3 about sold out his last carload consign ment of autos and is ready for another carload. Mrs. Reney, who has been visiting with her aunt, Mrs. Johnson, went over to Jim Cook's for a short visit Sunday and will soon return to her :SDokane home There is some talk of celebrat jjng the Fourth at Wamic or at f Smock. Some favor a joint cele- bration of Smock, Wapinitial and Wamic at uate creen, wnne others want a . picnic and ball game at Wamic. Grazing Research Local forest rangers have fenced off two sample . areas on which there is less than 25 per cent ground cover. These tests are being made to determine why feed does not grow in cer- tain favorable sections of our cattlo and sheep ranges. The tests will spread over u period of live years and are expected to disprove belief that the cause is from overgrazing. Mills Closed Down Local forest rangers have clos ed the Wasco Pino nd the West fall sawmills, and they will bo kept closed until the operators comply with the firo protection clauses in their contracts. These j require the piling of logging slush as well as supplying tools with which to tight tiros in the areas controlled by them. Evil Spirit of Sea Feared by Sailors Vuntu ricolins, 11 promontory on the northeast coast of Palawan, Philip pines, has become a well-known land mark to Yankee skippers voynislim to minor ports of the Philippine to lU-k up curves of nuxsir. coconuts dried Into copra to be hhlpped to vegetal oil mlUM, and Manila hemp nnd other libera for the cordage Industry.
