MAYBE IT'S SO. COME time back a gentleman of O Heppner was reciting the won ders of the Okanogan country. Among them he touted highly the fame of the Ogopogo. This strange water creature is said to exist in Williams and Okanogan lakes in British Columbia, and clear-sighted Indians living on their shores are said to have known of its existence for years. "Time" reports that It was first seen by a white man four years ago when one Roderick Mc kenzie, Cariboo member of British Columbia's legislature was over turned in his sailboat by wiggling of the fabulous monster. It is said to be a gentle creature 30 feet long with harmless vegetarian habits, having the peaceful face of a sheep and the head of a bulldog. It pro pels its long brownish-green body through the water by four flippers, occasionally rearing its head like a eigantic water snake. "Time," in reporting the Ogopogo, gives little credence to its existence. A correspondent in a later issue evi dently holds the same idea. He wrote: "About five years ago the 'Cnoritimists.' a musical review in London discovered Jessie Matthews, nnd trave her among others this song to sing: 'I'm looking for the Ogopogo, The funny little Ogopogo His mother was an earwig, His father was a whale I want to put a little bit of salt on his tail. I want him for the Lord May or's show ' or words to that effect . . You speak of an Ogopogo in British Columbia. Which came first, the Co-optimists' Ogopogo or the Indians'?" To which the editor answered, "Who knows?" Now we are not certain whether the gentleman of Heppner said he saw an Ogopogo or if so, under just what circumstances, but we are leaving it to him to put everybody right on the subject to befriend the Indians, and in the main our relations with them have been peaceable. We have felt rath er sorry for them. In these recent ears, and few have begrudged the comparatively small cost of main taining them on reservations and giving them as much education as they were willing or able to assimi late. Now Mr. Charles J. Rhoads, Uni ted States Commissioner of Indian Affairs, thinks the time has come to get the Indians off the reservations and into the ranks of industry and agriculture as independent citizens. We think nobody will object very much to that except the Indians themselves. Why should they enter into the fierce competition of civil- zation, struggle for a living, when Uncle Sam can support them? The older ones on the reservations will not relish being thrust out into the cold, cold world. They have been pauperized so long that they probably could not make a living independently. But if Mr. Rhoads' plan is carried out for improved In dian schools, which will teach the young ones the useful arts, espec ially encouraging me development of their native handicrafts, in so far as they have any, and which will hold up before each Indian child the understanding that even tually he or she will have to take the same chances that white folks take, it may be that in another gen eration the Indian problem will have been solved because it will have dis appeared. After all. it hardly seems lair to have enfranchised the Negro with out conferring the same more or less doubtful benefit upon the Indian.

There is no doubting that this earth was designed for the occu pancy of man and for the lower an imals, and everything needed for health and long life was placed within their reach and for their benefit 'Civilization" has brought with It many diseases unknown to the cave- dweller, the primitive man. The oldest man I ever saw was 101; he had lived next to nature all his long life; he had not tried to turn night into day, and had lived the way God intended him to live; long life was his reward. It was no accident, no freak of nature that he did this; he simnlv obeyed nature's laws. I saw a man this very day, tubbed and togged in the very latest on his way to the golf links. Apoplexy was written all over him. He wore a flannel suit, soft cap, knee bree ches, flat shoes, and was smoking furiously to keep his internal ma chinery "hitting on all six." He had probably never had his toes or fingers In the dirt in his life nor had he likely ever done a lick of manual labor. Here he was out seeking health, breathing like a porpoise. He was, doubtless, worth plenty of money, man's goal these days, it seems. But a careful observer wouldn't Insure his LIFE for five dollars! He was apparently between fifty and sixty years of age the time when a man should be at his best; dear reader, would you be iu his condition for what he has accumulated for his heirs to squander? Frankly, wouldn't, nor for a hundred times that much. We make a "great game" of this life of ours, and call it civilization and progress. Is the game worth what it costs? If more people put in a few hours of actual physical labor each day, and followed it with eight hours of good, sound sleep there wouldn't be so many youngish widows out in the social suburbs. I know I'm ancient, but I'm talking sense! JUSTICE TO THE INDIAN THE situation of the Indian in the United States has long been one of the curiosities of our system, in the eyes of foreigners. They cannot understand, in the flrst place, how we ever took this vast continent away from its original inhabitants; least of all can they understand how, having once conquered the In dians, we have kept them as wards of the Nation instead of compelling them to take their chances with white folks. The answer, of course, as every impriran knows, is that the In dians were never fit to control or develop the resources of the coun try, and the natural law of the sur vival of the Attest operated to give the white man control. From the beginning, American settlers tried THE TEN MONTH YEAR THE latest development of the new economics is the proposal of Henrv Ford to make the working year only ten months long, giving evervbody in industry a two-monms vacation in summer. Summer, as Mr. Ford so truth-. fully says, is no time to work in a' factory. There are certain times, in every industry when a shut-down for overhauling plant, repairs, ad ditions, etc., is necessary. Mr. Ford shut down his Dearborn works for a month this summer, keeping only 30,000 men at work making im provements. Coming from anybody else it might be laughed off, but when Henry ForcV seriously proposes a ten-months year he is to be listened to. First thing anybody knows he will put it into effect in his plant, and then the others will have to fol low suit. He doesn't have to go to a board of directors to get authority to trv experiments; he is his own board. When he put the eight-hour day into effect curses both loud and deep rained upon him from every body else in the automobile indus try, where the nine-hour day was the rule. Nobody would go back to nine hours now. He was the flrst to establish a minimum wage high enough to enable the worker to spend something lor luxuries, TJnw nil ereat industries run on something like the Ford wage scale He put the five-hour day into effect, and others had to follow. One ereat advantage of the ten month year, Mr. Ford believes, will be a further reduction of unem ployment. Forward-looking men in economics and statesmanship now hold that we shall not achieve com- nlete economic independence for everybody until all workers, at least all whose work is of a nature wnicn can be carried on the year around, are employed on a yearly basis. Few manufacturers are as yet pre pared to hire factory workers by the year, but if the commitment is onlv for ten months it may come any payday. With ten months' work at good wages assured, he would welcome the two months' summer layoff, as a schoolteacher does. He would not be afraid to make com mitments based upon future earn ings, for he would know that as long as he did his job he could count on getting his pay for forty-three or forty-four weeks. From the point of view of democ racy, Mr. Ford's project looks like a long step towards giving the wage- earner the same security that the farmer or the salaried office worker has. There's generally a hitch in it somewhere when a person wants to give you something for nothing. Still it does sound nice, "without cost to the taxpayer." Probably the optometrists will be the next class to call for legislative relief. At least eye strain should be less prevalent with the lengthen- ng of milady's frocks.

AMOS, A HERDSMAN CALLED OF GOD TO BE A PBOPHET. Amos 1:1; 7:10-15; 2:11, 12; 3:7, 8. Rev. Samuel D. Price, D. D. This study in biography presents the progress in history. The Jewish nation had three kings in the uni ted national life. Then came the split, following the death of Solo mon and ten tribes formed the Kingdom of Israel while the other portion was known as the Kingdom of Judah. The northern section started out wrong, for Jereboam proposed that two calves be set up, in Bethel and Dan, that the people might make them centers of wor ship rather than follow the com mand of Jehovah and go up to Je rusalem for the prescribed solemn feasts. It was not long before Israel did more than worship thus. It will be remembered that when there was apostacy after Palestine had been entered that God raised up a series of judges who helped the people out of each emergency. Something of the same method Is seen in the study of Old Testament history, following the division of the kingdom. Now prophets are called into service that they may tell the people of their sins and promise forgiveness if they will on ly sincerely repent Amos is a hum ble man thus called Into high office as spokesman for God. This prophet Is of a humble origin. He was just a plain herdsman of Tekoa, located about 12 miles below Jerusalem. Part of his work was to pinch open the growing sycamore-fig, for other wise it would not ripen. At flrst the message had been di rected against the surrounding na tions for they were grossly wicked. To such deliverances the Israelites listened with some patience, for it Is always Interesting to hear an other criticised. Then Amos went about 22 miles northward to Bethel that he might sell some wood In he should look about to see how Israel was progressing at this cen ter of calf worship. What he noted was shocking in the extreme. God seemed to have been forgotten in the present program of living. Self will as the standard of righteous ness of Jehovah was not even con templated. Then Amos, at the fur ther commission of God, set forth the facts to his kindred. Their exact sins were declared in no un certain language. They were posi tively wrong In the sight of God. Right and worth-while ways were indicated and promises of forgive ness were made if they would only sincerely repent It was expected that the people would take exception but Amos was the more amazed when Amazlah, the priest, sought to silence him, though he declared that he was God's messenger in righteousness. Amaziah appealed to King Jere boam II, but the prophet continued tn deliver his denunciations, inis God-sent man would not be stopped for he had a great rnission to per form. Special mention was made of the way the people had sougnt to debauch the Nazirites. These men had taken a vow not to use alcoholic liauor as a beverage, but every so ber Nazirlte was a rebuke to them in their gross drunkenness. The people had already said of their priests "Prophesy not." Amos stood forth In the face of such habits and opposition. He Is quite like Isaiah, described In our Golden Text; "I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I; send me," Isaiah 8:8. The application is far more than admiring the heroic attitude of Amos. We are to study local con ditions and determine how we can best represent God In trying to make this old world more like the Kingdom of God, which is always In process of development. God will commission everyone who Is willing to help In the work of world betterment. Lexington school will begin Mon day, September 1.
