Oregon's budget calls for a ?i'e of seals amounting to $44,260 " hich means, that in order to make 'he sale a success, five seals per canta must be sold. Bv the first o1 he mon'h the sale will be launched in every city and hamlet. THAT RAINY DAY There are more ways than one of "putting something away for a rainy day." The umbrella one obtains and guards most closely may be con- five eighths of this percentage show them to be native born. When we stop to reflect at our illiteracy, along come the statistics brought forth by the army draft and we discover the number is greater than in 1910. We have boasted about our free institutions, our excellent system of education, but something must be lacking when 8,000,000 of our people can neither read nor write. Our citizenship has been sadly neglected. Foreigners have come to our shores and we have allowed them to shift for themselves or to be taken in hand bv an element wishin? no pood structed of coal. to the government. I And the "rainy day" my be a day Statistics further show that a very such as we have had with coal small per cent of the immigrants who miners out and ,he family coal bin came to America in the last decade emPty- ,f yu were one of ,nose have become citizens. Still being who had coal t0 burn yu were more aliens makes them more susceptible than lucky- You had 'earned the to any propaganda that comes along. ,esson of Purring the right thing away Eighty per cent of the trouble mak-, for a rainy day ers in the strikes in the country are Putting food away during summer and early autumn for the winter day, often more snowy and cold than rainy, is another indication that you know what sort of an umbrella may be needed in the future. The farmer who fills his silo right ly interprets the ancient advice. So, foreign born. WILL NOT HURT FARMERS. Census information of great sta tistical value is proposed to be taken from all the farms, beginning Janu- !one that is handy for your use on the rainy day, the cold day. the snowy day, the day when there's a shortage of coal, or food, or clothes, the day of unemployment, the day of hard times, the day when the wolf howls '.oudest at the door. If the coal strike coal shortage did no other good (and we don't believe t did) it helped to drive home the Tayhaired su;estion: Get while the getting is good and save it. t--t HOW MUCH LONGER HANDS ? 'Was a time when man made everything by hand. He built strong. peed was secondary; permanence ime first. Today, steel finders cut, -hare, weave, weld and do the work 'Was a time when fine handwrit ing was a proud accomplishment. Now comes a machine with ears and Infers. We speak and it automat- '?ally writes our words. No more will we practice our hoicest language on inky blots and cra'chy pens. Ne'er will a bad nnd cost a nation its conquest. Did -ot the Marshal Grouchy fail to rinn up his picked trooos in reservi ecause he misread Napoleon's scrib le "The battle is won" for "The 'attle is on" ? Authors, rather than statesmen, ,fford the most interesting examples if writing. Thackeray could pen the 'ord's prayer on his thumbnail. Hawthorne wrote so small some of "lis manuscripts could not be read. Horace Greely once wrote a note discharging a compositor. It was so sadly scrawled, the man used it as a 'etter of recommendation to get an other place. The signature alone was decipherable. If man continues to live a push button life, what will become of his hands ? Science says we will breathe our food in the next era. Machines will do our work. Nature discards every oran that outlives its usefulness. Will hands go the wav of tonsils, appendix, tails and claws? t-t DID YOU KNOW of Illinois, on a recent visit to Wash ington 'was enthusiastically greeted by Congressmen and Senators as "our next President."
