Mrs. Martha Rhodes, one of the Portland subscribers of the Observer writes si word of appreciation of the value of the Observer as a local paper, and states incidentally that she is 81 years of age, an invalid, but working for the Red Cross all she is able. Such is the irrepressible spirit of loyal American womanhood that excites the ad miration of every true American. American women, young and old, are meeting the problems of the war with a fortitude and a courage and willingness to serve their country in every emergency, that cannot be surpassed. Work done for the great Red Cross organization is a work of universal mercy that will bring relief, comfort, and peace of mind to multitudes of gallant American soldiers. May the choicest of blessings rest upon Martha Rhodes and millions of her loyal sisters! The committee on education, of the Portland school board, has recommended that the teaching of German be discontinued in the Portland schools. Many students have dropped the study of their own accord, and there is very little demand for the course in German. The class of one high school teacher of German became so small that she asked for a year’s leave. The committee’s plan seems the best way to “Americanize” the Kaiser’s tongue. The mounte bank antics of Mayor Harley, of Astoria, at Washington, are almost as interesting at his pugilistic encounters in Astoria. He (or some one else interested in “knocking” the Oregon congressional delegation in gener al and Senator McNary in particular) is spending a nice sum in flooding Oregon newspapers offices with his “ham mer” literature, all couched in the choicest idioms of prize ring and the gambling-house. Speakers at the recent food administration meeting at Silem lay some startling food facts before the meeting. It is impossible for anyone to prescribe the duties of Mayor Sadler and Henry L. Bents who were there to re present Aurora were deeply impressed with the necessity citizenship for another. However there are certain basic for everyone to comply with all food regulations, It is truths to be kept in mind. One of these is that the man impressed upon the nation more and more that not only who considers his own convenience and gain alone is a men, but materials and foods are absolutely necessary to poor citizen. In the past it has been possible to get away win the war. We may not approve all the acts of the with this attitude. That time is fast passing. Society is food administration, but we should comply with its regu demanding service of every man. The one who refuses to lations as the best present means of conserving our food do his share is unpopular, but soon he will feel more than supply. The petty sacrifices that we as individuals are mere public disapproval. Selfishness is the mark of a making at home in safety are negligible compared with small soul.
