Thursday. August, 21 - - - 1913 PUNISH THE GUILTY. Undor this heading, the Port lam' .Tournnl lias the following which al sirootl citizens can heartily endorse A distinct coiitrihution to the anovement for a single standard of morality has heen niadehy Juvenile Judge William H. Donahue of Oak Sand. California. In a recent case f delinquency, he said; "I am tired of following the recommendation of the probation llicerand sending girls who have fommitted no crime to state insti t.utions while the men ami hoys re snonsihle for their downfall are ad- inittcd to pronation. The practice f punishing the innocent and pro Sect insi the truiltv is wrong and I am oiug to stop it. This court is goin to see that the guilty are punished. ' There is no sounder doctrine. In no field have we ocen so "must as in our douhle standard of moral We condone the man but crush the woman. We take the man to our social tnisom as though he were as pure as a new Mown rose. We drive the woman out into the street, shut the asocial doors against her and frown upon her as a contaminated mon strosity. It is our wont to drag the woman into the police court, but nobody t'ver inquires about the man. It is our wont to fulminate against the manager of a bawdy house, while we hug to our bosoms the man who takes the largest part of her profits in rents. We haul her into court And fine her hr conducting the Jmsiness, and lift our eyes to heaven :i iinLT with some ehuivnman who takes secretly a part of the profit? if the business, of which she is manager and be landlorJ.

H Written for The Gazette-Times by Winifred M. Smith. There is a movement on foot tlint deserves the attention of every teacher who is planning to go out to lit'lo in ) the work of training boys and & iris tojOD, a;r eaoh dav to stamp out all kinds of disease, but the horrible disease of tuberculosis has only one cure, namely ; the de velopment of the physical powers through exercise in the fresh air. The playground by bettering the health of the child, especially the working child, naturally gives a moral effect. I believe than even person wishes to do right rather than wrong if only given a chance to live normally, iu a wholesome atmosphere with a few hours of good fun in the 'I his will rein be intelligent citizens. This is the Piaygroond movement. It is a bianch of physical training that is being most discussed at this time. In this pnper I hope to give the readet a better idea of the meaning and aims of a playground and the progress of the movement during the last few year? Teachers suould become familiar with a few interesting gnmes and he able to properly supervise the same For a small amount a plaoe in a country district could be fitted oat where such games as basket-ball, German bat-ball, vollev-ball and several relay games may be plyed. If the teacher learns how much easier pupils may become intetested in their school work and how much more may be accomplished through the medium of the playgiound she wil be nniious to join them at recreation periods and maka school one uf the most interest ing planes possible for them. She shoull make it so interesting that intsead of being glad to miss a day at school tl.ey will go through almost anything for the sake of not missing it. Fifteen minutes exercise in the open air means one nunorea per-cent more than fifteen minutes exercise in the school room. How anxious are we to see that our horses, c , ttla sheen etc. are given the best care so that we may realize top prices on the market. Of how much more value are cur boys an girls. Is it not throngh the works of our great est men and women th tt we have attained the present b$b standard of civilization? Add are not some ;of out greatest problems of to-day to be j D9yabie 8Dji annually. force moral lessons more strongly than years of wearisome preahing and lecturing, and the playground in utilizing their leisure time teaches momlity. The progress of the Playground movement is wonderfnl. The play ground Association Books of America give us the following facts: In 1912 teports were received from 250 cities. These- 250 cities maintained 1000 grounds employed 4,000 men and wo;-en. exclusive of care-takers, and expended $2.000 000. In 1910, 80 cities had associations. In 1911, 150 oities had associations, showner an increase of 100 per-cent in one year The playgrounds are becoming moie aud more efficient, and I ventuie to say that if the progress is as grea in the coming five years as it has been in the nnst live, every city in the United States will be well fnrnished with play space for their children, lake care of your eves.

Of Interest to Investors since Morrow nounty has called In its warraots, those who have heen in the market for warrants can now find a good investment in I. O. O. F. Bonds. Willow Ledge will float a bond issue of $18,000 00 in denominations of $100 each, secured by mortgage on the stone building. Interest 7 per cent If you like the town nest, ten em so. If you'd have her lead the rest, help her prow. When there's any thing to do let the fellow count on .You; you'll feel bully when you'r through don't you know? If you waut to make a hit, get a name! If the other fellow's it, who's to Mame ? Spend your money in the town where you pull your shekels lown; give the mail concern a frown that's the game! If you're ued to giving knocks, change your ;-:tyle! Throw boquets instead of rocks for a while. Let the other fellow roast; shun him as you would ;i ghost, meet his hammer with a i'oast and a smile. When a strang er from afar comes along, tell him who ami what we are, good and .strong. Xeed'nt Hatter, never bluff, truth, for that s enough; Imm titers -thev? re the stuff. tell the join the -Ex. It is remarkable what a different -ittituue pie now as.-uine to the oiiinion house fly and the pestifer ous nio-quit'j to what they did a tew years ago. It was deemed the proper thing in our I my hood days t "mind off" the Hies; now we "swat'1 them and make unrelenting v .triare upon mem. ie uen in think it sufficient to put "mosquito letting'7 over our lx-ds while we isl. pt; i.ov we not only keep them '.i t of thi- house, but we ;ire pur--v.ing them to their breeding phwes I de-trying them before, they re ieh the Hying stage of th-ir devel opment. We have learned that th the '!y and the mosquito coii y di-ea-'-s and are dangerous as 11 as annoying. This change' of !;tid: in the treatment of these -t- js ; k l.v to teaeii u- that a similar method of dealing with cer tain great moral and political proh-'-oi would prove equally effectual. .We have 1 e n "min i;;.,; off" soioe v V solved by those who are now attending, or should be attending our schools? Let us cousidei the place in the world that the child has occupied One hundred years ago the boy and girl found sufficient room to srow up in the big broad land whore quiet and freedom had lease. Later the in dustrial and social demands increased so rapidly that the child was lost for the time with little breathing room. and almost no play room. In the city every Inch of ground was utilizer! for railroad tracks cr factories. Where was the place for the child? He even lost his runst precious birtn rigiir, the back yard often termed his paradise of adven ture. Even the streets were closed to him. Street car tracks ran down the center, heavy wagnna along both curbs, and machines on all sides. As the President of the Pittsburg Play ground Association once said to the ueople of Chicago, "You need a place r your children to play. You have not thouht of that. Your city is a mero work-shop. Men live there. children are born there. Yen st-nd them to the hospital when ill, to the couutry when couvalesent and you never even think of them when well. " The country boy experiences the same misfortune as the city boy, for now the fragrant flowers replace the oi l poards that mad such fine tilts and big round barrels that aff.rds an excellent hidioer place, are gone. The girls anu.bovs had very little chance to play until within the last few years. People are beginning to realize that a part of a boy's education nust he had in the open air, and the progress of the great movement in the lust twelve years has been wonderful. By a playground we mean a large, ouen space provided with tilts, swings tennis lourts, basket-bull cuurts and sand boxes where children may be kept happy and at the game time re ceive a no: m a I preparation for life, both physically and mentally. The playground means more than simply a place to play, li ere all the bad children may be carted to be kept out of the dirty stieets. Many games, if well taught, j ry fully tell the chi'd the lesson that is to be gained from books onlv through tiresome, uninterestng study. For example, many games teach observa tion and deduction as does "James' Psycol gy, the great lesson of life, "you mu-it do it jut right, or you will fail " this knowledge comes t'.routrh games and brings mental ac curacy as do the numberless books of mathematics. I wonder how many minds coincide with mine when I say (hat the only lesson I WELL remem Ler in geometry isthisff will have to bi-ect that angle just right or I will fail." The Playground means a place where the boy may learn his rights and those of his play mates : a place where he may recognize right from wrong, his social standing in the: group, where he may gain eef-reliance that grows stronger as the accurtcv of thonght and movement increase. First and foremost, the playgronud aims to better the health of the pt'ple. L'Aery effort is being made T. J. Mahooy will act as Trustee and First National Bank special de- nositorv. This makes a sure and absolutely safe investment for any one having $100 or more to invest. The issue has the full sanction of not 6 tily the local ledge, but the Grand Lodge of Oregon. We are receiving applications from OM Fellow Lodges throughout toe State, and also from local inidviduals but must sell more.
