The Republican party is stewing in ? ita own cusnedncss, but It has yet to s pose as "uniting with the church," to s Bain palltlcal ends. The favorite " hokum nowadays of 2x4 organizations, is to blatantly announce "a reform movement that aims for the spiritual betterment of man." All good politic ians have cloaks made of religion, and I devoutly endeavor to turn prayer , meetings into a caucus. To date, they ! are getting away with it. I've been about a bit; I've girled; And long and lustrous is my list. Dut what is sadder In the world Than thoughts of girls I might have kissed? Ah,' sadder than that memory Of opportunities I've missed Comes now the bitter thought to me Of girls I wish I hadn't kissed. (Vanity Fair) Tn HIS IS educational week. Certainly the need for education was never more apparent. But not among tlie young alone. Some of our elder Btatesmen need education. Last week in the United States senate a group of democrats car ried on a successful filibuster against the administration's anti Lynching bill. The filibuster is a relic of the politieajrdai'k ages. It is the weapon of a minority to defeat the will of a majority. The administration had the votes to pass the Anti-Lynching bill. According to all the rules of representative government, the bill should have passed. But it did not pass. It will not pass at. the present session. By tiiking advantage of the antiquated rules of the upper house, a small jjroiip of southern die-hards, defeated the will of a majority of the American people and protection of the American citizen, whose skin is black, guaranteed by the constitution, was denied, thanks to tlie unenlightened action of an aggressive minority. Certainly, such action exposes the need of education not only among tlie people of the south, but among their educated representa tives. For the theory that the negro problem of the south ican only Le solved by lawlessness, that the -negro oriminal can only be elimi nated by sanctioning a public crime against tlie negro, has its roots iu ignorance. Slavery was put down not only because it degraded the slave but because it degraded the slave owner. Slavery not only represented a great moral wrong, 'but it represented ultimate economic disaster, through the sMtening of tlie essential fighting fibre of the white. So the tacit approval of Judge Lynch, is not only a crime against the negro, it is a crime .against white civilization, it results as Theo dore Roosevelt pointed out, in the degradation 'of both black and white. 1 Education iiloue can reveal this fundamental truth. Education alone can elevate public opinion to that desired level, where the feud amentals of Christianity may be recognized as not only good morals, but in the broadest aeeeptuncc of the term, good business, not only ex cellent things to preach, but the best possible things to practice, in short not only good polities, but the best statesmanship. By all means let us have an Educational week. But let's not con fine our efforts only to those of school age. Let us not forget some of our college graduates who have gone through the motions of get ting an education, but have failed so pitifully to absorb either its lessons or its spirit. s "To Have and To Hold" is a delight ful picture, cost a million, and is his torically correct, with the exception of the noble buck, who runs around Jamestown, Va., in 1609, wearing Charles Chaplin mustache, which is only approximately 307 years botore they wore first Inflicted. , '"" Quill Points If it has a, lyck in it, nobody seems to care what else is iu it. AVivcs are people, who kick your shins under the table when you pick up the wrong fork. You will note that when the sultan ran away to insure his free dom, he left his wives back home. News that the divorce of the Kspeo from the Ceepeo, "might throw ob stacles in the way of railroad building in Central Oregon," is apt to cnuso a Too hoe! AND THEY BEAT HIM (Chlco Enterprise) Gas and oil; drove car 1000 miles; walked 900; nlno blowouts and seven punctures; gave away nine yards of cotton flannel, three hair nets and two pairs of silk hose; was dog-bit twice; told ' 10,000 lies; got kicked off of two farms; kissed 02 babies and two' old maids; attended one barbecue, came near joining church for pol icy's Bako; made ono public speech, and if I had made nnothor I would not havo rocolved a Blnglo vote.

AN IRATE SUBSCRIBER (Eugene Register) ; "You know dam woll J paid my subscription tho last tlmo I was In your town, if I got uny more such lottorB I will como down and maul hell out ot you." A LADY TALKS "Now, K'rIo Is tho kind of n girl . that tho fellers look at twice, and some of tho weak ones look thruo tlmos. She was built for the purple and flno liniment, but all her llfo she had a boanory spoon in her mouth. I never knew it was so big, till we hud our war. I won't have no truckdrlver lay ing around my house full of lemon extract and patent medlclno, that blackens your teeth. I hit tholr ro mance in tho noodle, but ho would have been mad anyway tilt aftor tho holidays he always has been. He's too nice to work at anything that don't call for the use of a monkeywrenrh. He's a nioclmnlcul genius, and knows the aiphnbet, nnd all about Kurds. He don't do no more sweating than a member of the University club. So when I said: Elsie, don't shoot him till we've saved enough to buy a coffin, she severed nil nthlotlo relations wllh me, and I wish she would quit wearing my flesh colored socks." It isn't humility that makes a man say he is unworthy o. her.1 It a dCsii'6 for a (io'timliiucuLr."'

The chap who takes two hours for lunch is the one who can talk most eloquently about Hie dignity of labor. AVe must have a merchant marine. It would be very humiliating if we may have time to take exercise and keep fit. Let's see, wasn't it wireless that linked all nations together in this charming and delightful brotherhood? A poetic nature is the kind that enables a man to feel abused for at least three months after his girl jilts him. Daughter's idea of thrift is to buy seven new jlnncc then use the same needle all evening to save money. ecords and Efforts to solve the European problem interest the average much less than the effort to locate the knock in his motor. The contest between faiths in the Near East is complicated by the fact that both sides have faith iu the oil districts. As January 1 approaches, kindly tell the worldvhnt you did with the money you saved by quitting your other bad habits. A woman candidate has been charged with buying votes. And yet the skeptics said women wouldn't be able to understand politics. Mrs. Gump and two children of Portland, were over week visitors at the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. K. C. Corns.

Where's Andy T RipplingRhutKQS Kf BEGGARS, THE poor men come to my aliotle, and ask for bread and chicken; they've dragged thrift forms along the road, and they are sorely stricken, and 1 might hand them out an ode, their sluggish blood lo quicken. But these are worn and weary men, their stomachs all iu ereascsj when fed they'll take the road again mid walk it till it ceases; and so I go and kill a hen and let them eat the pieces. Some wise men say my course is wrong, they jeer at what I'm doing; "You pauperize the errant, throng," they cry, with much beshrewing j "let beggars work for they are strong before you start them chewing." Hut I can't manufac ture jobs, I can't invent a calling, for all (lie tired and hungry swabs who come, for fodder bawling; and so I let them gnaw the cobs I'm from the cornfield hauling. I might explain, when they arrive, that charity's a flivver, that none's entitled to sur vive unless he sweats n river; "So buckle down," I'd say, "and strive to earn the eggs and liver." But uh, I hate to preach and scold where hungry men are treading, to hand out maxims flat and cold, in place of prunes and bedding; I have a rooster nine years old that's ripe for the beheading. , Mrs. Darbara Hcter and daughter Bernice wero dinner guests at tlie home f Mrs. S.
