Omm rear by matt tl.M A person who is not punctual is about the most selfish being in the worid- They seem never to consider just how much they an inconven iencing others. Most of us have had the experience of hurrying to get an appointment on time, perhaps leaving undone some things which shsstt have been taken care of, and tin had to wait fifteen or twenty mantes for the other party to ar nve. That is one of the few times that anger is justifiable. is not the luxury for the idle rich that it was twenty years ago. If you have the proper spirit yon can make a go of it. If you dont get a good education in this day and age, it is merely due to your own inertia and lack of ambition. And the inconven ient part of it is, employers are going to know that and the lack of a degree will be a beat on your character as welt as on your education and earn ing capacity. So consider well, young people, and get on the right track. Truth, in its struggle for recogni tion, passes through four distinct stages. First, we say it is damnable, dangerous, disorderly, and will sure ly disrupt society. Second, we de clare it ts heretical, infidel ic and contrary to the Bible. Third, we say it is really a matter of no im portance either one way or the oth er. Fourth, we aver that we have always upheld and believed it. Elbert Hubbard, GO TO COLLEGE Probably about this time a great many of our young people are won dering what they are going to do in the fall Every fall for the past twelve years, or for as long as they can remember, school has loomed ahead of them as the only possible solution. But some of them finished school in Jane and now they are try ing to decide just what to do. To those we would say, unless there is some absolutely unsur mountable obstacle, complete your education in some good college. Pro bably we are not the only ones to give you advice. You have doubtless been hearing it from all aides. Bat getting down to brass tacks, it is after all a simple matter to de cide for or against the value of a college education. Just as easy as it is to decide whether a farmer should use the tools and machinery to work his farm, which the twentieth cen tury has given him, or whether he should use the tools and machinery of two centuries ago. Possibly some people who do not Tealize the actual need for a college degree have said to you, pointing to some man who has achieved fame, "Look at him. He never went to college." True enough, but he be longed to a different age, and just so surely as you do not take advantage of the tools this age has given to you, just so surely will you find your self on an exact parallel with a farm that is worked now with eighteenth century machinery. And a college education has been made possible for everyone now, It EVER THINK OF THIST There are fancier towns than our little town, there are towns that are bigger than this, and the people who live in the smaller towns don't know what excitehent they miss. There are things you see in the wealthier towns that you can t in a town that s small; and yet, up and down, there is no other town like our little town af ter all. It may be that Jhe streets aren't long; they're not wide, or may be straight, but the neignoors you know in your own little town all wel come a fellow it's great. In the glittering streets of the glit tering town, with its palace and pave ment and thrall, in the midst of the throne you will frequently long for your own little town after all. If you live and you work in your own little town, in spite of the fact that it's small, you'll find it a fact that our own little town is the best little town after all. Exchange, unidentified. COMMON SENSE WILL PREVAIL "'he U. S National Bank of Port- Ian,! has this common sense view in ltd business digest just issued: "We are now paying prosperity debts. It was human nature to run up bills during good times, and we did it. Now we are paying our bills under pressure. We borrowed biv cent dollars, so to speak, now .wc are repaying them with 85-cent dol lars, and as prices continue to eome down, it will be necessary to repay additional dollars obtained in boom times, with dollars which will be twke as hard to earn. Of course it is hard, and the worst is not over. Though prices have fallen greatly, there is still further deflation to be accomplished. We are paying the penalty for violating eeconomic laws, and all are guilty from the Federal Irovernment down. fcxtravagance, oerhaps justifiable under the neces sity of winning the war, was the or der of the day. For several years, figuratively sneaking, we were bor rowing ourselves rich. Now we suf fer because we must pay back. but our people are looking facts in the face. The country is not broke It is merely bent. Common sense and hard work honest work thrift and economy will pull us out of the hole. It is time to take off our coats, go to work, take our medicine no matter how bitter, suffer our losses and benefit from our experience. There have been times before when financial conditions seemed almost hopeless, but always common sense nas prevailed, anu inus it win oe WONDERS OF AMERICA yT.T.MAXET C Wmutb Nwfvr Union. THE CAVERNS OF LURAY IN THE midst of the broad winding valley of the Shenandoah River the "Daughter of the Stars" as the In dians called It In northwestern Vir ginia, flanked on the east by a line of mountains known as the Massa nuttons and on the west by the main chain of the Blue Ridge range, la the quaint, oldish town of Luray. Ten miles west Is Cave Hill, under which Is one of our great natural curiosities the Luray Caverns, to which have come to wonder, study and admire, scientists, explorers and tour ists from every quarter. Here the mysterious workings of nature have produced a veritable un derground fairy palace, with mites of passageways lined with an Infinite variety of curious, gigantic and won derful formations. Almost every object of nature seems to be repro duced with surprising reality. The in describably fantastic groupings of the weird and grotesque formations, the beauty and the coloring of the titanic tapestry effects and the trans lucent and symmetrical arrangement appear to be the handiwork of nature In a playful mood. One chamber measures almost 400 feet In length by 125 feet In width. Others possess lofty, arched and elab orately ornamented domes. A' most marvelous formation bears strong re seniblauce to a gigantic pipe-organ. When struck, these "chimes" give out, low, sweet, full notes which re-echo rather spookily through the surround ing caverns. This cavern Is brilliantly electric lighted, surprisingly free from damp ness in fact the atmosphere Is pleas ingly delightful, the normal, year-round temperature Is about 54 decrees and the journey through it an entirely new and novel and unusual sensation. THE COST OF EXPERIMENTING The facts that are comine to lieht in regard to the government ship building program almost stagger be lief. According to the new chairma'n. A. D. Lasker, the Shipping Board went through StiSO.UUU.uOU for the year ending June 20, 1921. And now the board is asking 1300,000,000 as a de ficiency appropriation. Lasker says the total expenditures of the board are hard to estimate, due to "the deplorable state of the books which, if kept for the specific purpose of cloaking fraud could not have been better. One thing is certain, there was an absolute deception of congress and the people on the expenditures of the Shipping Board." As an in stance of the way records were kept, Chairman Lasker points out that "there are 6000 voyages on r-hich no report has ever been made, thanks to the old system of running this gigantic fleet." It seems incredible that such a con dition could exist and yet the new chairman of the board is now giving these facts to the public for the first time. From the figures just disclosed it would apparently be cheaper for the taxpayer if the government would give these ships outright to anybody who would take them and pay taxes on them and thus relieve the people of further loss in connection with them. Our war experience in government ownership and operation of industry was a costly venture but it may be worth the price if it prevents further national experimente along the same lines.

FOREST GROVE NEWS : Tim tU Nsws-Timst CORNELIUS GIKL HAS HIGH SCHOLASTIC AVERAGE Crown CaT QUALITY DOMINATES Quality is the genius of production; and the dominant characteristic of Red Crown gasoline is quality. One cannot experience the results of quality unless quality is in the product. "Red Crown" is an all-refinery gaso line; a product of quality a perfect stream of power that makes it pos sible for you to enjoy the maximum power and the maximum speed your engine was designed to develop.

STANDARD OIL COMPANY (California) An exceptionally high scholastic average was made in high school by Florence Karpenstein, of Cornelius, a graduate of the f orest orove ntgn school, according to her credentials on file in the registrar's office for ad mission to the University of Oregon. In her four-year course she made an average of 95.3 and had no grade be low 90 in any subject. She has been admitted to full freshman standing. Scholarship among the applicants for admission into the freshman class this year are unusually high. according to Carlton E. Spencer, reg istrar. A search of the records re veals the fact that there are already 29 students who made averages vary ing from 90.7 to 98 during four years of high school work and who have never dropped more than a point or two below 90 in any subject. A number of these had no grade below 90 in any of their high school work. General scholarship at the Univer sity itself has been becoming steadily better, according to faculty 'members and administrative officials. In ac cordance with the general trend among leading' educational institu tions of th country, scholastic sti.id- ards have been raised in order to k' m the University of Oregon in fi.,.it rank. The response of the students. as shown by the steady betterment in quality of work done, shows that the new standards are still easily within reach of anyone who will apply him self, it is said. j Not Favorably Impressed A camper outfit mounted on what seemed to be a brand new Henry Ford, passed up one of Tillamook's main streets one day this week, and stopped while the driver went into a grocery store, presumably to pur chase supplies for the family larder. On top of one of the piles of bedding on one side of the auto was lashed a bird cage, and therein, dusty and ap- parent! y disgruntled, pereneu a Dig green parrot. The parrot seemed casually taking in the sights without the least bit of emotion. A couple of ladies paused for a moment to view the strange visitor. All at once the bedraggled prisoner seemed galvan ized into vocal activity, and perching at a point of vantage on the wires, suddenly exclaimed: bay, papa, aint this one hell of a town!" Then It cackled derisively, while its adopted mamma and two precocious appearing kids had the bad manners to laugh immediately. Tillamook Headlight. Shetland Return ta Ancient Industry.

In some cases the Postmaster had to go to the house to inquire who lived there. Every rural patron ought to take enough pride in his mail to have his box j plainly marked with his name there- If you are on the mail route anyplace, take your brush now and properly label your mail box.
