DELEGATE CANDIDATE President Levi Pennington of Pa cific College, Newberg, has announc ed his candidacy for delegate-at-large on the Republican ticket Pa cific college in one of the place? of learning which was attended by Herbert Hoover, and Mr. Penning ton is desirous of being one of thoi;e who may have a voice in nominat ing Mr. Hoover for presidency". Mr. Pennington has, as his watchword, the following. "I believe in promoting America's greatnets and high character by maintaining our prosperity and just ly distributig its benefits, and by faithfully and impartially enforcing all laws, including the prohibition laws. I believe in advancing Ameri ca's leader, hip abroad by cultivating international understanding and good will, ad wish to see America the leader in promoting world peace. I beleive that all these ends will best be advanced by electing as president Herbert Hoover, good citizen, man of affairs, able executive, human itarian, patriot, and world statesr man." Correspondence courses in the science of government are inexpen sive, but it costs something to get elected to an office where the know ledge gained can be put into practice. Teaching fire prevention in tchools along with fire drills, is to be highly commended. If our citizens of the future arc grounded in the facts of the .m understand the useless no s of fire, we can look to a time when fire will be reduced to a mini mum. The average citizen seems to for get that destructive fires are a great enemy of economy' and progress. Eighty per cent of U conflagra tions are preventable, and the result of carelessness, ignorance or incom petence. Very few fires may be classed as preventable. Educational organizations are la boring to teach us practical fire pre vention. Yet every year the great fire waste cotinues. It is to be hoped that 1928 will see a decrease in the waste of money, property, lives, time and damage to industry. The movement to teach prevention in schools will bear fruita in the future, and its sponsors are rendering a valuable public tervice.
