WILLIAM ALLEN AVU1T1-: recently wrote the sireiitcst obitu ary in the history of Aiiicriciui Journalism. The "Eilitor ami riiblislier" in iviwljlisliiiij; the article from the Emporia Gazette, terms it a "fine piece of writing. " Nothing could be further from the truth. A "finu piece of writing" is just what this tribute to Mary "White is not. For fine writing has come to mean, seli'-conscioiiir writing, the painting of the rhetorical lily, so to speak, an effort in which there must bo a hint of pretciisioiisness. Nothing could be less self-con scious, less pretensions, than William Allen "White's story of his daughter's death. Someone has said, there is nothing so pathetic us a brave spirit in affliction, who rises above pathos. In this sense, no newspaper article has ever been written, which is so acutely touching as this simple, restrained, one might almost say whimsical, description of the list hours of -Mary White, ami the faithful, reportoriul exposition of her spirit. Take these extract; Tnr example. ''No angel was Mary "White, but n easy girl to live with, for she never nursed a grouch five minutes in her life. She loved to rollick; persiflage was her natu ral expression at home. Her humor was a continual bubble of joy. She was lnischevoiis without miilicc, as full of faults as un old shoe. She hungered and thirsted for righteousness, and was the most impious creature in the world. Clothes meant litlle lo her. It wus u fight to get u new )'ig on her, but eventually a harder fight to get it off. She -refused to have her hair up, though she was nearly seventeen. Above every other passion of her life was the passion not to grow up." And the clean-hearted pride with which the Associated Press re port that Mary White died from a fall from her horse is refuted. She did not full. She was "proud of few things and one of them was she could ride anything that had four legs and hair." She was swept off by a low-hanging branch, as she turned in her saddle waving her cowboy hat to a friend ! . How weak and pale any tremulous epitaph would look beside that simple word picture, "waving her cowboy hat to a friend." . And then the conclusion, from the collo(iiiulisin of a Kansas vil lage' funeral to a spiritual exultation the more impressive becuuse so free from the conventional expressions of "hope conquering grief." "For her pall bearers only her friends were chosen, her Latin teacher, W. 1. Holtz, W. W. Finnery, her pal at the tGa clte office and her brother Kill. It would have made her smile to know that her friend Charley O'Hrien, the traffic cop, had been transferred from Sixth and Commercial to the corner near the church lo direct her friends, who came to bid her goodbye." "A rift in the clouds in a gray day threw a shaft of sunlight upon her coffin as her nervous, energetic little body sank to its last sleep.

The roubles we are earning don't pay us for our toil, the gasoline we'ru burning is mostly castor oil. Two cylinders are missing, the bat tery is lame; a byword and a hissing is life, the dismal game. And yet the folks seem cheerful as they pursue their grind; the fellow who is tearful is rather hard to find. I hear the people chuffing and joshing as they pass. I hear my neighbors laughing while hoeing garden sass; I cannot understand it, sitcji--mirth all vain appears; this life does not demand -ftlit rather calls for tears.

June 1st, 1921. laEx-Service Men of Oregon: Within a few days you are to vote upon tho question of whether the Statb shall give material recognition to tho services which you rendered tho nation in tho great war.. I know full well that when you entered the service of tho United States of America you did so as a patriotic duty and without the hopo of any material reward. It is my firm belief, and has been all along, that tho United, States of America, through its Congress, should have endeavored to make some sort of material provision for its fighting men following the war, so that they could bo assisted during the period of readjustment in returning to civil life, so that they could establish homes, and place themselves on a self-sustaining basis once more. Congress, failed to make such provision and it was my pleasure to recommend at the recent Legislature that the State of Oregon be not remiss in this duty, but show a proper spirit of appreciation to its ex-service men. The Legislature went as far as it could in compliance with' this recom mendation by placing tho matter before the pcoplo of the stato and they are to vote upon it within a short .time. i I believe the ex-service men themselves should join in making tho af firmative vote on this measure one showing a heavy majority. While some of you may be actuated by modesty in not participating in this election, I believe you all should. It will redound to the credit of the state if this measure goes over by a heavy margin. Oregon has been fqreraost in every patriotic endeavor up to date and I feel satisfied that it will not fail at this time. With wishes of success and prosperity for all of you, I am Respectfully yours, BEN W. OLCOTT (Signed) Governor. kit W. 01cntt V. W. Vote X YES 302 World's War Veterans State Aid Fund.
