A T THE next meeting of the board of directors of School District No. 1, will be presented the petitions asking for the con struction of the proposed auditor ium-gymnasium. As the petitions have signautres of a sufficient per centage of the voters of the dis trict it is presumed that the school board will take action looking to the calling of a special election to vote on the bond issue. There has been no undue haste manifested on the part of those promoting this move to get the question up for decision. It has rather been a policy of "watchful waiting," enough having been put forth to give an idea of what is de sired and time given for reflection However, as all such matters must finally come to a head if anything is to be done, it will now be up to the board of directors to put the question up for the action of the voters of the district. We expect that thprA will h enmp nrAttv strong opposition to the bond is sue, but we also expect that the measure will carry; we are quite sure this will be the case if the proper kind of educational pro gram is followed. We are sure, also, that those who favor making this addition to the school facil ities of the district would not de sire to have any other than a frank wide-open campaign put on one that will give a thorough under standing of all items regarding both taxes and manner of building to be constructed out of the funds voted. Let us all be prepared to give the question careful consid eration, realizing that the district is up against providing additional facilities tor caring tor the in creased attendance must have more class rooms, and that there is also vital need of just such a building as it is proposed to erect should the bond issue carry. And now comes a man from Canada who says that he owned the bull that chased young George Young, the Catalina swimmer, in to a pond and forced him to learn to swim.

NICHOLAS MURRAY BUTLER, president of Co lumbia University, wants the re publican party to steal Al Smith's thunder and go him one better. The Smith idea is to nullify the eighteenth amendment by not en- Children Do Not Know The midnight hour of Christmas Eve Has come, and all the house is still. Those little ones who bravely fought To conquer sleep, and wait until Old Santa Gaus had found their door, Are dreaming of a wondrous land With avenues of brilliant trees And loads of toys on every hand. Yes, children dream of Santa Claus, And do not know that while i mj iih' rpvi rru 1 1 r i-r in in- unrifi Is trying oh. so hard to keep The promises that have been made They do not know that every year The faithfulness of mother-love Is what fills Christmas Day They do not understand! Eut As men and fathers, surely That life is beautiful because Our wives and mothers make As we again commemorate A Baby's birth in Bethlehem, And think of all that mothers give, We bring love's offering to them, (J, IHl, 0. Umw lUothwn-) forcing it. Dr. cutler on oth- er nana proposes repeal ot amendment as well as repeal of -J the olstead act. If the people of the United States do not want prohibition the Rutler theory is preferable to the Tammany theory. Dr. Butler is at least straightforward about the matter. He is within his rights in proposing repeal of the amend ment and that may be the logical course to take if the wets wish to get away from the dry regime. There are difficulties ahead, however, and they are very ser ious. For instance, what does Dr. Butler propose in lieu of the eighteenth amendment? Has he something better to offer or does he merely wish to repeal the amendment and return to the old days of saloon rule? If so he will be wasting his time. No one wish es to return to the old time con ditions. It is doubtful if more than a handful of states would so vote and it takes two-thirds of the states of the union to amend the constitution. It is easy to criticise conditions but if the Butlers and the Al Smiths wish to accomplish any thing they must be able to suggest something better. To this end of the subject they seem to give no thought. What they are offering thus far would merely make pres ent conditions worse. They are ready to tear down what we have but they have no plans for new buildings. Seemingly they will leave that detail to the distillers, the brewers and saloon-keepers. If that is the scheme no one need be in doubt as to what to expect. Latest reports would seem to indicate that the McNary-Haugen bill will pass congress, but is ex pected to receive the veto of Pres ident Coolidge. Many members of congress, having in mind their political welfare, but being pri vately opposed to tjhe bill, will sup port the measure, hoping that the president will give it the axe. The president will do this very thing if he is convinced that the measure is not sound and for the best in terests of the entire people, re gardless of his personal political aspirations. Uncle Sam's Police. PORTLAND TELEGRAM. AFTER more than three years of world wide search, Hugh De Autremont, one of three broth ers charged with murder, train holdup and attempted robbery of the United States mails, has been captured in far-away Manila. The story of the crime in the Siskiyou tunnel is familiar. It was particularly cold blooded and cruel, but it was not so much that three trainmen and a mail clerk were killed and the lives of trainload of passengers placed in jeopardy that has inspired the long untiring search for the sus pected criminals. It was the fact that attack was made upon the in violate dignity of the United States mails. That is an assault that Uncle Sam neither forgives nor forgets, and the patient vigil ance ot the postomce inspectors is never relaxed until the offender is caught. The result shows what may be accomplished by a detective force which is composed of trained men working as a unit under intelli gent direction and counting time, money or effort as nothing so long as the end is accomplished. It is by such organization that Scotland Yard has won its fame, and crime awrence k Hawthorne they sleep; jLj njf vC with cheer. c we, know it so. BcErank Crane Says FOURTEEN ERRORS OF LIFE A LONDON judge has listed what he considers the Fourteen Great mistakes of Life, as follows: 1. It's a mistake to attempt to set your own standards of right and wrong and expect everybody to conform to them. 2. It's a mistake to try to measure the enjoyment of others by our own. 3. It's a mistake to expect uniformity of opinion in this world. 4. It's a mistake to look for judgment and experience in youth. 5. It's a mistake to endeavor to mould all dispositions alike. ! 6. It's a mistake not to yield to unimportant trifles. ', 7. It's a mistake to look for perfection in our own ac- tions. 8. It's a mistake to worry ourselves and others about ' what can not be remedied. 9. It's a mistake not to alleviate, if we can, all that ' needs alleviation. 1 10. It's a mistake not to make allowances for the weak- i ness of others. 11. It's a mistake to consider anything impossible which we ourselves cannot perform. ; 12. It's a mistake to believe only what the finite mind can ; grasp. ' 13. It's a mistake to live as if the moment, the time, the day were so important that it would live forever. 14. It's a mistake to estimate people by some outside quality, for it is that within which makes the man. Lists have been made by all sorts of eminent men, including Washington and Franklin, for the conduct of life, and they are all more or less useful for the ordinary man. The art of life is steering the middle way, avoiding errors on both sides, and it is interesting to have these reefs pointed out upon which many a human bark has been shipwrecked. It may repay us all to examine this list of the London judgte and see wherein we have been mistaken in the past and to avoid mistakes in the future. There is nothing positive about the list. They are all things not to do, and not things to do. But the avoidance of these mis takes may save us much embarrassment. Life is a perilous path at best and to make the journey safe ly from the cradle to the grave involves much circumspection, and perhaps this list may be of help. in England reduced to a minimum. Recently Judge Taft called at tention to the fact that one of the chief handicaps to law enforce ment in America is the fact that our policy is divided between many conflicting and unrelated agencies. City, county, state and federal officers, many of them po litical appointees without training or experience, work in their sep arate orbits without coordination or common direction. They form an unknotted net through which the criminal escapes with ease. If each state had a machinery for the detection and apprehen sion of criminals, as well designed and handled as the department of inspection in the federal postof fiice, we should see an astonishing decrease in crime. There is no reason why human life should not command the same respect as a mail bag full of let ters, and there is no reason why the crmiinal who destroys the one should not be as determinedly fol lowed as the one who molests the other. If that were done, we should soon lower that appaling record for homicides which pro claims us the most lawless nation in the world. Pilot Rock Record is again un der new management, the paper having recently been disposed of by J. 1. Arneson, owner and bus iness manager for four years past, to C. A. Adsit of Walla Walla. The latter gentleman has taken full charge of the Record and put out last week's edition of the paper. PASSAGE by the House of the Wilson river toll road bill, while not affecting this part of the state directly, nevertheless com mits Oregon to a toll road princi ple obnoxious and archaic. Lo calized though the Wilson river toll road would be, application of the toll road principle will be statewide. And we want none of it. As a matter of truth the active proponents of the bill are well aware of the opposition generally to toll roads and for that reason they are pressing the bill through, expecting thereby to force a new and expensive highway upon the taxpayers of the state to satisfy their own selfish interests. For, granted state permission to build, construction will be easily and quickly financed by private inter ests, these interests knowing full well that popular demand through opposition to paying tolls will re quire the state to buy the road and add it to its highway system. East ern Oregon should arouse itself and array itself against this meas ure that is a political expedient to add another expensive road to the already highly-developed system of western Oregon, which, per force, will deny eastern Oregon the attention its under-developed system of highways requires and merits.
