Mm year by mall $1-00 "The best proof of intelligence la when a man admits he is wrong. Ig norance feels too insecure to make such an admission. During the two weeks from Armis tice day. November 11, to Thanksgiv ing, November 24, the American Red Cross will hold its Fifth Annual Roll Call. A fitting time indeed for the "Greatest Mother" to seek to increase her treasury for heart service. The necessity for keeping the coffers of the Red Cross full should not be urged upon anyone. We should all be eager to help and the help they ask each one is so small that nearly all can afford I it and not even be aware of the sacri-1 fiee. Giving to the Red Cross is certainly one case in which "bread cast upon the water may return to us again," for who of us is able to tell when our own home or city may be stricken and we will call upon the "Greatest Mother" whose boundless sympathy offers , succor to all those who are jn need; Many of them earn their way by doing work at fair pay by the hour and each year the dormitory earns about ten thousand dollars surplus. Last year Miss Todd built a beau tiful English colonial style cottage and furnished it out of her profits, that houses twenty-eight students, All the equipments from blankets to table lamps are of the best. The best bread is baked daily for less than three cents a loaf. The kitchen is supplied with the most modern machinery, such as meat grinders, vegetable cutters, bread molders, dish washers, electric oven. Instead of being a burden upon the taxpayers Miss Todd pays her own way, gives 100 per cent service and any state might be proud to have as efficient a person for governor. Ore gon Manufacturer, :smm! WONDERS OF AMERICA By T.T.MAXET OREGON NOTES News in 'Brief, Gathered From Various Parte of the State The farmer may never be threat ened with unemployment as his city brother is, but nevertheless he has difficulties as serious with which he must contend. The fall in the cost of machinery and farm implements has not kept pace with the deflation which has brought the farmer's pro ducts to pre-war levels. Consequent ly the farmer has not been able to in crease production because he has lacked the funds with which to work In some states farm improvements have declined 80 per cent. This means that production will be cur tailed, and that eventually the con sumer must pay higher prices. The only way to, keep down the cost of liv ing is to aid the farmer by forcing down the cost of farm machinery and equipment. After all we find that in the farm lies the cause and cure for near- all of our difficulties. A WOMAN ADMINISTRATOR Women in general can t.ake a dol lar go farther than a man, and a cer tain type of women can make more dollars go. In one western Btate a woman has made a 10-year record as administra tor equalled by very few men in handling a public institution. This woman conducts a large dor mitory, at the Oregon Stato Normal school and has made it pay and earn go-xl money from the beginning. Students get better board and rooms than most hotels furnish, for $7.00 a week, including light, heat, ba!hs, laundry and gymnasium. I 2, Western Nwtppr Union.

The Story of Our States By JONATHAN BRACE XVII. OHIO THE North west Ter ritory, of which Ohio Is a part, was a bone of con t e n 1 1 o n be tween Spain, France and England. Spain's claim was based on the voyage of De Soto up the Mississippi river. France, through the ex plorations of La Salle from the north and the early entry of French priests from Canada, considered this territory theirs. As for England, she rested her claims on the discovery of North America by the Cabots, and In the charter granted to Virginia Included all the country lying to the West The French were the first to get a foothold In Ohio, but the English pioneers, who shortly began to drift westward, firm ly established their settlements in the fertile Ohio valley. Af ter a long period of warfare, In which the Indians played a leading part, the Northwest Ter ritory was fcnally ceded to the United States by the Treaty of Independence In 1788, And Vir ginia and other states, which had laid claim to portions of this region turned over their frights to the federal govern ment The government of the North west Territory was formally created by the ordinance of 1787. People from the Bast mi grated Into this territory In such numbers that by 1803 Ohio was taken Into the Union as the seventeenth state. The fourth largest state In size of' popula tion, Ohio has 24 electoral votes for President, while In area, with its 41,040 square miles, It ranks only thirty-fifth, which shows how densely it la popu lated. It Is noted as the state of Presidents. President Hard ing makes the seventh Ohloau to fill the presidential office. The name Ohio is derived from the Iroquois word O-hee-yo, meaning beautiful river." It was first applied by the Indi ans of the Five Nations to what we now call the Allegheny riv er, one of the chief tributaries of the Ohio. Gradually the name came to Include the whole river, sometimes even being an- -plied to the Mississippi. Later It was confined to the river be tween Pittsburg and Cairo, and appropriately the first state formed on its northern bank was named after It Ohio is often called the Buckeye State from its large number of hone chestnut trees.
