T?OR two years the American peo- 1 pie have been groping about In a mystic maze, wondering what in blue thunder it was that hit them on the head to give them the bum staggers. One economic doctor af ter another has prescribed a differ ent brand of headache medicine and the patient has been humored into the state of a hypochondriac One of these days a good old-fash ioned, common-sense family doc tor will come along and jab a pin into the seat of the patient's pants causing him to start with a howl of pain, throw his hands over the sore spot for an instant, and then feel of himself in wonderment as he dis covers that there is really nothing wrong with himself that he has been suffering under a delusion and then to laugh. Or at least he should laugh, for there is no hope for a patient who has lost his sense of humor. With due regard for the sincerity and earnestness of purpose of Pres ident Hoover; admitting that the democrats have the interests of the nation at heart in attempting to stick a wet plank in their platform, and that they will nominate a big, broad-minded man as their presi- idential candidate, we are not so sure that Will Rogers wouldn't be the best helmsman for the ship of state under existing conditions. At least his election should create a situation to appeal to the nation's sense of humor. There is no doubt that his kidding from the sidelines has done much to keep up the peo ple's morale. It may be lamented that Ameri can capital isn't as good a sport as the doughboy who mired in the mud trenches of France among cooties, Big Berthas and shrapnel to give that capital a clean bill of health. The mud was never too deep, the cooties too thick, the Berthas too loud or the shrapnel too hot to keep the American doughboy from find ing a humorous side to the situa tion, and much of the nation s fin est manhood faced the death-angel on fields of blood-stained poppies with smile-lined lips. They could see the irony in fate. A good indication that at least part of the American people have become tired of listening to the hollow barking of undertaker-faced statesmen is seen in the nomination of Henry Fields for U. S. senator over Brookhart in Iowa. Fields put on a side-splitting campaign show that made Iowa people re member how to laugh. It was all good, wholesome fun, and they en joyed it to the tune of giving Fields a strong majority over the field. That is one of the most hopeful signs signalling the end of depress- - Sunday School n n Lesson n n ion. It may or may not be possible to imbue American capital with such a sense of humor and bring it to It s senses. But that doesn't mat ter. Money is cowardly, and may hide out entirely. If it does, it will destroy itself and our people will continue to live, possibly without a few baubles and frills, but happily so long as they keep their sense of humor. A world's championship heavy weight boxing match: Six weeks of ballyhoo. A $500,000 gate. Two big he-men poking at each other for 15 rounds in which one gets a black eye and is made champion. They throw arms around each other lov- ingly. New champ gets $50,000 for his black eye. Old champ gets $200,000 for giving it to him. Both hope to be in fine fettle for another match as soon as the public for gets about the last one. Barnum, old boy, you put it mildly. This Is Going To Be Good By Albert T. Reid AN AMERICAN TRAGEDY. Autocaster Service. PERHAPS the most tragic figure in the world today is not the exiled King of Spain or the de throned Kaiser mourning for the lost glories of the Hohenzollerns, but the man who only a few weeks ago was the head of the greatest light and power industry in the world and who today is penniless except for a small pension. Strip ped of his power and his property, with all of his private means and those of his family gone in the ef fort to save his great power com bine from collapse, Samuel Insull, at seventy-four, is going to return to his native England, to spend his few remaining years on a pension of $18,000 a year, $6,000 from each of three of the corporations which he formerly dominated. There have been violent differ ences of opinion about Mr. Insull's businss methods and ethics. There never has been any differences of opinion about his enormous energy and his business genius. Born in England of Jewish parents, he got his first employment as a stenogra pher in the London office of Mr. Edison's very young electric light company. His reports to Mr. Edi son were so intelligently phrased that the inventor sent for him to come to America as his personal secretary. That was more than fifty years ago. The collapse of the Insull Empire is of slight consequence. The pow er companies which he established and amalgamated will continue to do business and doubtless to de velop along the lines of his vision. And at seventy-four it probably is not a serious matter to have only $18,000 a year to live on. It has been a terrible blow, however, to the man's pride, and entitles him to everybody's sympathy. At the same time, we feel that he is entitled to a word of praise for his honorable conduct in sacrificing his personal fortune rather than remain himself enriched by the expense of the in vestors in his securities. .UToCSTJ'- BULLETIN ISSUED ON ANIMAL PESTS International Sunday School Lesion for dune m Reviews What we have learned from Oenesia Rev. Samuel D. Price, D. D. While Genesis means beginnings this quarterly review lesson which covers this first book of the Holy Bible. No geneologist can calculate the time involved. In fact Jehovah was before all time of record. He was the self-existent cause of all creation in untold process of time. Sin is a subject that has a large place in this book. The Bible as a whole tells how sin can be par doned. Genesis 3:15 is called the First Evangel and is fulfilled in the atonement of Jesu3 Christ on Cal vary. While the sin of Adam and Eve separated them from God, He at once made provision, through the work of the Son on the cross. After the Flood man was given another opportunity. Redemption was to come through the Hebrew people and Abram. Abram proved his faith in God when he was to obey what he understood to be the requirement of the Almighty in of fering his son Isaac in sacrifice. Isaac In time did his part though he was overshadowed by both his father Abraham and his son Jacob. Those who appear to play minor parts are doing work that is essen tial In the necessary progress of the plot Jacob made many mistakes and paid dearly for them. His ambition for the birthright was commend able but his methods were con temptible. Joseph is one of the most valu able persons for character study in the Old Testament. He preferred a clean conscience In the presence of God to any impure contact that would dwarf him as a man. He went from the pit in Dothan to the position of Prime Minister In Egypt. The family .reunion in Goshen marked the beginning of the birth of a nation. The Golden Text has a greatly enlarged meaning: Ro mans 8:28. STRANGER THAN FICTION. Autocaster Service. WAS there ever such a complicat ed, unsolved mystery plot out side the pages of a detective novel than the Lindbergh tragedy and its ramifications have developed into? The kidnapping itself was suffi ciently horrifying. The discovery weeks later that the little boy had been ruthlessly murdered was one of the most gruesome shocks the American people have ever receiv ed. The subsequent disclosures of attempts to profit from the grief of the agonized parents make one wonder whether there is any such thing as honor and decency left in the world. The total failure of Federal, state and local authorities to get any tangible evidence of the identity of the criminals is almost beyond belief. Then the suicide of the servant girl in the Morrow household, who took poison rather than face another inquiry by the police, adds stll another touch of mystery and tragedy to the whole affair. When the whole truth is known, If it ever becomes known, the plain. unadulterated, straightforward sto ry of the Lindbergh affair will take its place with the classics of de tective fiction.

JOHNJ0SCPH6AlNES,M.D Alcohol, Pro and Con The propagandists are at work some condemning, some pleading for alcohol. The family doctor should be a good, honest judge, with absolutely nothing up his sleeve in the way of political crookedness. He should be the capable, honest adviser of his patrons who look to him in all things medical. Alcohol compounds are extremely useful and convenient as medicines. No honest, capable physician will deny that. But ALL true physi cians are against alcoholics as bev erages. Whiskey is a good servant a bad master. No true physician with the welfare of his people at heart will recommend intemper ance in anything. I am against propagandists who will stoop to falsehood in order to carry out their designs. For in stance, the fellow who declares that alcohol is not a stimulant, but a depressant; that It will stop a heart or respiratory apparatus rather than revive It; I've had 38 years of experience and I know better. Many hundred times I have re vived my aged patient when near collapse with whiskey, combined with milk and eggs. It was most convenient and usually acceptable to the Invalid. I might have used strychnia, but I liked the effect of the alcoholic better. Why not use the one most simple, convenient, and yet reliable? All stimulants paralyze and de press In overdoses, and the alcohol ic Is no exception; but why use an overdose? It is the overdose after all that does harm. But when any one tells me that whiskey in nor mal dose is never a stimulant but a depressant, then I am suspicious of both his scientific knowledge and his sincerity of purposehe has an axe to grind. Our blessings should and must be used as such. 3 years for $5 where can you get more for your money? The G. T.

The claim of the wets that pro hibition was "put over" on the peo ple by some sort of a trick is con trary to fact. Clifford P. Smith, editor of the Christian Science Sen tinel, touches upon this question. He says, "An important fact often omitted from discussions of prohi bition is that most of the United States had adopted it locally before the American people adopted it as a national policy. Prohibition had advanced step by step from its adoption by Maine in 1851 to its adoption by Kentucky In 1919. Con sequently, when the Eighteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States became effective in 1920, the sale of Intoxicating liquor for beverage purposes was already prohibited in the District of Columbia, in thirty-one states, and in many parts of other states. In short, approximately seventy two millions of the American peo ple, and at least sixty-eight per cent of the entire population, were liv ing then in 'dry' territory. Conse quently, prohibition was not in 1920 an untried experiment; it already had in this country an extensive history." He further says, "The question. Ought the Eighteenth Amendment to be either modified or repealed? can be resolved into more partlcu lar questions. Is prohibition con ducive to industry, morals, good citizenship, and the public welfare? Would conditions for adults and for boys and girls be made better or worse by legalized drink?" No doubt, many will honestly differ as to the answers to these questions. But the persons who are most vocif erous in their opposition to prohi bition are not so because they be lieve that a return of the liquor business will be conducive to indus try, morals, good citizenship, or the public welfare. They expect to make money out of the business or they expect to save money by re duction of income taxes by putting a tax upon liquor whereby the la boring classes will pay a large part of the taxes. Many of the persons who insist upon the repeal of the 18th amend ment will, when asked if prohibi tion would not be a good thing if effectively enforced, admit that such is the case, but insist that it can not be enforced and therefore should be repealed. This argument means that we should surrender to the criminal element who do not want to obey the law. It means that whenever any considerable number of people want a law re pealed all they have to do is to go out and violate the law and encour age others to do so. Then they will assert that the law should be re pealed because it can not be en forced. The honorable position for all good citizens to take Is that all laws should be enforced as efficient ly as possible as long as they are on the statute books. The old ad age is true: "The best way to get a bad law repealed is to have it rig idly enforced." Alfalfa Cut Into Mow. Corvallls Some Benton county farmers have been following the practice of putting hay Into the barn directly from a chopper In stead of in the usual manner. The advantages, according to County Agent Cy Briggs, are that it occu pies a much smaller space, is easier to feed out and there is less waste. One man dlscovenfed several years ago that he could put his alfalfa hay in partially green that way and have a brown hay after it went through a heat period. This hay was greatly relished by his stock. The danger is that It will get too hot and cause a barn fire, says Mr. Briggs. Control Methods for Squirrels, Go phers, and Other Rodents Explained by Expert Oregon has the reputation of be ing first in a great many notable achievements but one of her "firsts" is a doubtful honor. The United States bureau of biological survey is authority for the statement that no state has a greater variety of small animal pests than Oregon and that In consequence it suffers ser ious crop losses unless constant effort at control of these pests is carried out To help the farmers in this battle the Oregon Extension service has just published a revision of a for mer bulletin which is entitled "Con trolling Rodent and Other Small Animal Pests in Oregon." This bul letin, by Ira N. Gabrielson, assist ant federal biologist, gives concise information regarding methods or combatting the various small ani mal pests in this state. For many years the biological survey, one of the bureaus of the U. S. department of agriculture, has been perfecting practical meth ods of exterminating wild animai pests and has applied such methods successfully over a wide area. Here In Oregon the county agents work in close cooperation with the sur vey staff and organize community campaigns using the methods of control worked out by the federal experimenters. Sixteen small animal pests are considered in the revised bulletin just issued. These are ground- squirrels (Douglas, Oregon, Colum bian, Piute and Townsand), black tailed jack rabbits, pocket gophers, (Willamette valley and white-tooth ed), woodchuck, mountain beaver, field mice, house mice, brown rat, kangaroo rat, porcupine and Ore gon mole. Discussion of each pest Includes description, distribution in Oregon, life history and habits and control methods. Copies of the bulletin may be obtained from county ag ents or direct from the college. corner thereof; the KEM of Sec tion 26, and that portion of the EH of Section 36, lying North and East of a straight line running from the Northwest corner of the NE14 to the Southeast corner of the SE of said Set lion 36. all in Township three (3) South.
