This fact was noticeable on November 11, when everybody was Jubilating over the military victory. Parents in this town are concerned whether their young boys are sold pistols, or whether they associate with boys permitted to carry them. There is a state statute making It a misde meanor for dealers to sell guns to minor*. A dealer at Salem was re cently fined by the justice of the peace 8 5 for such an act. when some citizens were laboring under the Impression there was no such law. When a child is killed by care less and immature judgment in the use of firearms It Is too late to mend the damage, and all we can do la to regret, which gets us nowhere. Let’s guard the young. They are In our charge. , The next great movement for the public good and the one calling for the most immediate attention is better public roads in Yamhill coun ty and In Oregon generally. The good surface which this county en joyed for a few years between Mc Minnville and Newberg Is gone, and has the appearance of being part of the shelled No Man’s Land. This county should not let another sum mer slip by without permanently Improving this toad. Let us not halt an to which way It should go. but let the motto be, “ Let’s Go.’’ The course i f the paved Pacific Highway properly belongs Jo the highway commission in conjunction with the county court t6 decide, and as a guide they have the road bill and the map and the engineer to counsel with. We now have two units of a permanently good high way for all-year travel, vis., Belle vue to Sheridan and Rex to Newberg. Let’s fill the vacancies and do It as soon as the weather will permit. The department o f the Interior bureau o f education Is trying to discourage the use of nick-names •p eclally designating certain class es of foreign born America me. “ Da go.” "K ike,” ’’Wap.” ’ ’Oreaeer.’ ’ “Mick.” "Paddy,” “Sheeny,” “fpa- ghette,” and similar names make go hit with the bureau of educa tion. whleh maintains that such dle- and Americanised foreign born per- qpns and groups. The bureau Is sending out suggested forms f y a pledge to refralh from the use of such names. Schools and factories will be supplied with the proposed pledget so that American children and adults may stop to think o f the undesirability of making sport of anybody because he was not born In this country. FIVE P O P U L A R STORES Oregon “Q U A LITY STORE’ October 28, 1818. Dear Mother- -Just a few lines to let you know that I am doing fine and enjoying a nice furlough. I am now far from the battle lines on a seved days' furlough and I sure am making the best of it. We are staying at hotels In a summer resort in the most beautiful part of France. A ll our expenses are paid so all It costs us is only what we want to spend. W e are on the outskirts of one of the largest cities in France. It sure is nice to be where It is warm and see the sun after staying in the rain and cold so long. There are eight boys from my company down here on furlough and something like 150 from the whole regiment, so you see there is a good sized bunch of us on furlough. I will be away from the company for about 14 days and I only wish It could be longer. If we are over here long enough I will get another furlough, but I hope we are home by that time. '\ was In the front line trenches when I got notice to pack up and go on my furlough, and it sure did What is it the mob always seeks? Not Justice, but revenge. Punish ment according to law will not suf fice. It is torture that 1 b demand ed. Of course perfect Justice the law may seldom secure. It may take a life for a life; It cannot make reparation for the inexpressi ble spiritual suffering a crime, in volving murder, for example, may have caused. But beyond the pun ishment provided by the law men and nations may not go. They may not even make the slightest ap proach toward punishment inspired by the Bplrtt of revenge. The idea of subjecting the criminal to physi- cal torment as a part of his penalty Is abhorrent both to a right minded man and a Just tribunal. When, however, one reads today the comments of many an American newspaper, and the reports of the public utterances of more or Jess dis tinguished politicians, ministers, and others, he Is startled to see the old spirit of the mob asserting it self. The enemies of the Allies must not simply be punished, made to make reparation wherever repa ration can be made, we are told, but their cities must be burned, their land laid waste, that Is. we must commit the same crimes they hare committed, and whtch have horri fied us and outraged our sense of Justice. Then whaj better are we than they ? How much further to- ward the truth and the light has our “ Kultur’ ’ led us than theirs has led them? It Is out of this spirit that springs the desire to see the war endad, not when the things tha Allies have fought for are fuly attained, but only when, with the ends attained, there can be present alee the eon- sciousnesa on the part of the victors j that they have had their revenge. | Shell this war brutalise us. or shallj we come out of It with our Ideals , of justice and honor atljl unim paired?—Our Dumb Animals. tel with pool tables, a canteen, a place to get light lunches and just anything we want.

She ac cepted silently, and all the waj along, although the future states man tried to engage her in conver sation he could not get her to saj anything more than “ Yes” or “ No.* Some days afterward the little girl's mother happened to meel Lloyd George and said to him «n il- in giy: “ Do you remember my little girl's riding with you the other day i W ell, when she got home she said.
