IT HAS been (leeiilcd .that French and EntrliKh shull huvo equal recognition as official languages nt tho arms parley. Secretary Hughes has so informed Briand and the other governmental heads. Tho announcement lias caused great pleasure' iii France. The French were hurt at the suggestion made some time ago that English .".lone would have official sanction when French has been the ac cepted tongue of diplomacy for centuries. There is little doubt that from now on English will hold equal place with French wherever internationiil discussions are carried on, but whether, it will ever entirely supersede French is not at all cer English has made great strides in Europe during and since the war and most of the other nations, with their usual shrewdness, will doubtless cultivate it as a secondary tongue. If Americans are wise, they, in their turn, will take up the study of French extensively, not only as a social accomplishment, but as a business and professional i.sset. Spanish, -too, if possible but French is more broadly useful. BRITAIN'S BOXER INDEMNITY. f , GHEAT ISIUTAIX seems about to follow the example of the Lull ed States in remitting the unpaid balance of the Chinese Uoxer indemnity, with the stipulation that the money be used in Chimfse cducution. , ,' The United States, at the suggestion of Secretary John Hy, flicl Unit very thing more than 20 years ago. Since that time many of China's finest young men have studied at schools and universities in this country, learning not only American ways and methods, along vilh their academic or technical studies, but what is more important ilill, America's ideals and America's honest desire for good " 'will niiKuig nations. The original step was not a selfish one, not taken with a view to courting special privilege or preference in China. Yet it has brought,, material benefits in addition to making China a warm friend. That is why a special parliamentary commission studying the sit uation for Great Jtritain has reported, "American, interests in China' arc advanced by tlic respect, .trust and affection of the Chinese to a degree. Unit no other natioir enjoys." It is an interesting comment o:i a good deed done and a good example set. The lesson of Hrumfield translated into modern. terms is this "You can't beat the game; no matter how clever you are, in tho end you must pay."

When I was a boy in Ohio I earn ed niy first dollar. I ran nway from home to come1 to Oregon and was going to peddle my way here. I had Cifty' cents. I bought four pair of nickel socks and some susnenders, and started out. I doubled my money on the transaction. I stocked up again and started out anew, but grew homesick in a couple of day, and went back home at Troy, Ohio, to get something to eat, and start right for Oregon. I started out with my Sunday clothes under my arm, -and when a mile or two from home, took off my - every day clothes and hid them. I was never able to find them again. I was warmly welcomed on my return. I really think that most of tho rheumatism I have every win ter Is nothing but lingering pain from it." . JOHNSON , SCIENTIFIC DENTISTRY 228 East Main Street .
