FACTS AMI I AN (IKS A1MMT THK
I'HII.irriXKS
By M.mhio Kalaw, Secretary (if the
Philippine Mission.
A certain lady at the St. Louis En
position saw at a bull rooom a brown
complexioned man clad in faultless
evening drums and accosted him with
the inquiry: "I suppose you are a
Japanese, sir."
The man addressed replied, "No
madam."
"Then you must be Chinese," she
replied.
"No, I am not; I am aFilipino,"
he replied.
"How's that?" asked the lady.
"I thought they were all savages liv
ing in the woods."
"Well,' I'll tell you how I came
here," he said. "A month before I
left the Philippines I was living in
the woods, but the American Gover
nor decided to catch as many wild
men as possible, train them, and send
them over here. So the American
forces were Immediately set in mo
tion, we were taken from the woods
and kept for a monilh at the Gover
nor's palace, taught how to dress
and spea'k a little English, and then
Kent over here. So here I am, lust
as you see." And the St. Louis lady
actually believed him.
That is what you would call fan
cies about the Philippines. The
'act is, however, that the 10,unf),000
I'Mipiuos and their ancestors have

ple, there were 841 schools for boys
and 833 for girls? That in 1892,
eight years before the coming of the
Americans there were 2137 schools?
The Philippine legislature recently
sent a special mission to the United
States to request the fulfillment of
America's promise to grant inde
i pendence. It is their plea that the
specified condition precenedt to the
granting of autoniny the establish
ment of a stable government is al
ready fulfilled. Their representa
tions are indorsed in every particular
by Francis Burton Harrison, who
has been the American governor
general in the Philippines for six
years, and is in a position to speak
from actual observation.
"Iiy temperament, by experience,
by financial ability, says Governor
Harrison, "In every way the ten mil
lions of Filipinos are entitled to be
free from every government except
of their own choice. They are in
teligent enough to decide for themselves."

ALL MEN TO HAVE JOBS
OREGON
HAS FIRST

THRIFT
Oregon still leads in thrift work,
the first text on thrift education hav
ing been prepared by Dean J. A. Bex
ell, of the O. A. C, school of com
merce, and published by J. B. Lip
pincott's of Philadelphia. It has
been recommended by the United
States treasury department for its
eighth grade detailed course of study
The text is made a part of the Lip
plncott thrift series, and is strongly
recommended by the publishers.
Every man who wants work will
have it by June first announces J. W.
Brewer, federal and 0. A. C. farm
haying commences MFW MFWYMF
help specialist for Oregon. When
haying time comes more men will be
wanted than can be found, unless
conditions change. Big road pro
grams are taking up large numbers
of the present small surplus of la
borers. If wages compete with
farm wages many men will take the
construction work because of Its
eight-hour factor, impossible on the
farm. Mr. Brewer thinks some ar
rangement must be made to insure
continuous production, since the
whole country is dependent on the
output of the fara.

The Flow of Meat
Two-thirds of the livo stock in the
United States has to b3 raised
the West.
in
One-half of the consumers of meat
live in the East.
In other words, most of the live
sleek is ono or two thousand miles
distant from most of the peopto who
need it in the form of food.
Fifty years no, when livo stock was
raised close to every consuming cen
ter, the country butcher could handlo
the job after a fashion.
But tho job got too big.
Now millions of anirmls have to bo
moved hundreds of miles to millions of
people. Somewhere on 'tho way they
have to hi turned into meat.
Th3 packers solved tho problem.
They set up plants whero the "livo
haul" and the "meat haul'' were in
the ri,;ht balance. They built up
clisti Pouting systems refrigerator cars,
red iterating plants, branch houses.
They saved time, money and meat
everywhere. The stockraiser bene
fited in better markets and higher
prices; tho consumer, in better meat
and lower prices.
As the country prew, the pickers
had to grow, or break down. Ikeause
of its present sie and efficiency.
