Governor Wlthycombe Is right: Just because a few officers of the law fall by the wiles of Old John Barleycorn Is no reason why the whole state police force should be condemned.

The first library In America was opened at Hurvard college 'iHO years sgo. For more thsn sixty years the Hurvard collection of books was thu only one of Importance on the conti nent, but In 1700 a public library was founded, and In 1731 Uenjsiuln Frank lin xtarted a subscription library at Philadelphia, the first of Its kind In America. The library of the United States, now called the library of con gress, was estubllshed In 1800. Tbe first public library recorded In history wss founded at Athens In the year MO B.C. This all Is very expensive, In the way of printers' ink, labor and extra' clerks. Thus there are thousands of clerks holding positions that are unnecessary. And the state of Ore gon, on a lesser scale. Is operating on a like basis. This Is only one of the instances where there is a wastage. Another wastage is where untrain ed teachers are hired to instruct the students. Here is a little argument by Superintendent of Public Instruc tion Churchill: "Nearly 20,000 school children In Oregon fall each year to advance to the next highest grade. It is esti mated that 40 per cent of these, or 8,000, fail because of Incompetent teaching, due to lack of training on the part of the teachers. As it costs $50 per year to re-teach a pupil, the Iobs to the state in money is about $400,000 annually." President Wilson says: "1 urge that the people continue to give generous support to their schools of all grades and that, the ' schools adjust themselves as wisely as possible to the new conditions, to the end that no boy or girl shall have lees opportunity for education because of the war, and that the na tion may be strengthened as it can only he through the right education of all its people." lv looming up in A lJ U- sjiu w - the road ahead of them. The driv ers, to a man, declare that they thought they were being "held up and most of them speeded up In an attempt to escape, But a queer incident of these hold ups at Canyonvllle is the fact that those "held up" bad a liberal cargo w.' In their cars. Yes, queer that every car held up by Hopkins had contraband aboard. Taking this as a fact and it Ib alleged to be a Brooklyn Surgeon With Army in France Uses Discovery With Success. The discovery by a well-known Brooklyn army surgeon of a new so lution which promises to revolution ise wound treatment at the battle front and to eradicate the terrors of what is known in wartime surgery as gus gangrene, Is reported In a specinl cable dispatch to the Brooklyn Eagle, dated from Paris. The dlRpntch says: "The discovery of a new solution against gns gangrene was announced before the American Red Cross Re search society in Parts by MaJ. James T. Pllcher of No. 121 Gates avenne.

The new solution already has been used by Dr. Pllcher extensively In wound cases of the more serious type, with surprisingly good results. It over comes many of the difficulties in-1 berent In other agents of the same i class. "The chief attributes of the new j remedy are simplicity of preparation, stability and the ease with which it can be concentrated for transporta tion. Its strength Is easily varied without Impairing Its properties, and It Is suitable for the Initial treatment of wounds at dressing stations or evac uation hospitals.

World news is all right, but OUR BOYS want NEWS OF THIS TOWN. They want the home newspaper. Publishers are prevented from sending their papers free to anyone, even boys in tho service.

There is no profit in this to the publisher even in normal times, subscriptions are not sold at a profit.
