THURSDAY, "JULY 1,1920.
PLAYGROUND WORK ,
This summer, for tho first time,
opportunity Is bains provided for tho
echool children to enjoy games and
receive physical training under tho
leadership of n skilled instructor.
This is a part of tho sorvlco being
rendered to the community by tho
Industrial Y. M. C A. nnd should bo
taken advantage of by nil.
Long summer vacations are coin
ing to bo looked upon with more nnd
more disfavor by the educational au
thorities of tho country. There Is
no particular reason, they fee), why
tho progress of Instruction should bo
halted for three months nnd the
child allowed to fall back from tho
habits of study and industry that are
painfully drilled into him during his
nino months of school. Better crops
are raised when some soils are al
lowed to lie fallow, but the fallow
mind docs not improve. Instead, it
goes back. Only by continual culti
vation Is the mind developed and Its
best fruit produced.
As yet our school' system has not
.developed to the point of holding
summer sessions. The playground
work offered by the Y. M. C. A. is,
however, something of a substitute.
Habits of regularity and punctuality
are encouraged, tho mind is kept
active and play, designed to assist
the coordination of mind and body,
it i 'promoted. Instead of aimlessly
tho rond in which they tnko pleasure
our roads will Inst longer.
In tho same connection wo cll at
tendon to Hie" eo.mm'u'ujcnTloiV from
tho county road master, .Vrklchl.kp
pear-in his'papor. The condition
to which MrIioU cays' attention is
worthy of tho consldetntloV'of eyV
motorist, and- It is.only by considera
tion and cooperation that wo can ex
pect to have good ronds.- '
PROVINCIALISM
If thoro is any placo In theso Unit
ed States that thinks it knows it nil,
it is llttlo old Now York. ninso'
and sophisticated, Its people look on
tho remainder of tho country na.tho
"bush." All the rest of us nro pro-'
vinclnl. When wo go to tho big .city
wo are nothulg but "rubes," accord
ing to tho Now York Idea, and our
chief cxclnmntlou, as wo gate on tho
tall buildings is, "By churn, pretty
durn high, nln't ItT"
As a matter of fact, Now York
folks nro Just as much rubes In their
way ns tho people front Podunk or
Hayseed Center are In theirs. Now
York is n p'rotty good-sited place nnd
in the course of a year its pcoplo
hnvo contacts with more varieties of
things than any of. tho rest of us.
There are fewer things, thejvtlint
nro Btrango to them nnd, therefore,
fewer occasions for any exhibition of
curiosity, but brlug along something
different and they show up Just ns
provincial ns anyone.
The foregoing is suggested .by a
news Itom in a Now York paper toll
ing of tho. commotion caused when a
girl rodo up Thirty-fourth street clad.
as the paper puts It. in "l& pictur

is described ns "fringed leather skirt,
riding boots, sombrero and an Indian
jacket." Sho had a male compan
Ion who nlso woro tho "colorful cow
boy garb. As they '' rodo along
great crowds gathered, blocking traf
fic and necessitating tho calling out
of several additional traffio police."
As George Ado onco said, "It nil
depends," but wo will bet thero's
nothing thnt New York could send
out here that would draw a crowd

, So far, only a few children havo
come forward to Join in the play

more will join the classes soon.

THE BIRD REFUQE BILL
A yenr and a halt ago, when tho
Malheur bird rtitugo bill was before
tho Seglslnturo, thu Commercial cRib
endorsed it nnd urged thnt thu legis
lature pnss It. Petitions for Its pass
ago woro also generally signed
around town, In short, thp senti
ment of tho town, so fur na It devel
oped, was In favor ot tho bill, and
this In spite ot tho fact that the peo
plo of Harney county woro bitterly
opposed and Insisted thnt their most
valuable rights nnd privileges woro
being tnken away from them.
The bill did not pnss nnd last win

tho state by tho initiative. Tho
measure aroused tho Harney county
poople, just as did tho bill boforo tho
lcglslnturo Inst year, and, liP order to
quiet this opposition, nn amended
bill was prepared, for which signa
tures aro now being sought.
To show that the present proposed

To thu Editor:
To Central Oregon nnd Doschutcs
county, In particular. This llttlo ar
ticle refers to thoso who drlvo curs
trucks and teams on our different
highways anil byroads. Tho entire
county Is doing ono at tfio great
things rond building but tho "pub
lic, thoso who drlvo on tho roads,
can help In ouo'wny moro than by
holplnir to pay for these roads, and
thnt Is by driving on tho rond In such
n way that it wili help tho roads In
stead of Injuring them, and that Is by
keeping out of tho rut.
For example: On n now rond,
break a wldu track. It wo build a
roadbed, say, 1-1 foot, tho traffic
should, as soon as tho road Is com
pleted and turned over to travel,
commonco nt onco to uso tho entire 1 1
feet by driving, not In tho rut, but
on tho part missed by tho last car
over.
Each and ovedy ono of you know
"that a rond surfneo of H foot will
keep in better condition nnd last 28
times as long as a track of si? Inches,
which the drlvors aro In tho habit of
following. Thnt Is why I say, "Koop
out of tho rut. Don't mnko ono. Help
to widen tho traveled track. It Is
only a small matter todo this, but It
is of so great a help to the upkeep of
tho road Oiat you will fool proud ot
yoursolf for tho part you took, and
aro taking, In helping to keep a good
roadbed by using tho ontlro width
ot It. oDn't mnko any ruts. A dirt
road will stand up bettor nnd longer
by using and traveling n width ot
only six or seven fcot thnn a gravel
or rock road will If you travel In
the samo rut of six Inches."
I hopo all drivers and user of ve
hicles will do their llttlo part, anil do
It on a now road as soon ns It Is fin
ished and usod nnd, by doing so, will
havo better roads, and it will cost but
little for mnlntonanco.
Yours for better roads,
