rp IIKRr? was great rejoicing in France when Lloyd-George fell
A In his retirement from tho stage of action, France professed to
see a resumption of the "ententc-cordiule."
But today Premiers lSonur Law and Poincare are at the same
parting of tlie ways, and another European crisis is confronting a
still confused and distracted world.
Tho result should surprise no one familiar with the fundamental
conflict n Anglo-French relations. Great Britain is an exporting
nation. Her prosperity depends very largely upon German trade
Franco is not uji exporting nation. She is self-sustaining, and in th
opinion of her people, her security depends upon a Germany 'too
weak to promote. a war of revenge.
It is easy for England to condemn France, and for France to con
demn England, and) yet, in a sense, neither nation can bo blamed. ;If
their positions were reversed, their policies also would be reversed,
internationally, there is no morality. Every nation, at least every
, European nation, constructs its international policy upon its self-
interest alone, ' '":'.
i In this crisis, as tho ones prceceding it, one returns to the neces
sity ,of a concert of world powers, somo outside and disinterested
foreo to compel co-operative action, based upon not what is best for
this nation or that, but upon what is best for the world, in other
words upon what is in accord with abstract principles of justice and
right. , i
Call it a Leagpe, or a Concert, or a Covenant, call it anything you
like, tho essential fact remains the same. Until some such arrange
ment is made, the fruitless and destructive scramble for selfish power
will continue, and Europe will steadily advance to that precipice
which spells the destruction of her present civilization.

GALLOWAY FROM WALLA WALLA
Galloway! Galloway! Fond of Miss
Willa Wye, '
Really when Galloway saw her a
mile away,
Nothing could banish the Galloway
. t. smile away.
Charmed by the billowy, willowy
Wllla Wye,
Silly Al Galloway stopped In the
alley wav.
And, In his callow way, stared at
' .,,. Mlsa Wllla Wye.
Bill O. A. Pulley, a pal of Al Gallo
way, Almost pushed Galloway out of the
alley way,
In his brusque Pulley way (Which
was no callow way),
Bill O. A. beckoned the willowy
Wllla Wye.
Willa Wye took to the Bill 0. A.
Pulley way,
Tho' 'twas a shallow way (sicken
ing Galloway;
He gagged at BUI 0. A. throwing
the bull away).
Not so Miss Wllla Wye. She fell
for Bill O. A.;
She forgot Galloway, she took his
pal away;
Now they are wed, and live out
Walla Walla way.

"Clay makes new complexion."' If' that is a common property
of soil, little Bobby should develop into a prfca beauty. ' '
Correct this sentence: "I am really very fond of new babies.1
said the old bachelor, "and I should liko to hold it if I may."
In these days of sex-equality, the patriotic husband will regret as
war approaches that he has but one wife to give to his Country.

WHAT'S THE USE?
IRIJAD tho books tho boys produce, and sadly murmur,
"What '8 tho use!" No doubt there are in modern towns ell
kinds of saphcads, boors and clowns who do not know a noblo
play or painting from a bale of liny. AVhy drag them from their
humble nook and boldly place them in a book, and say, "These
tinhorns reprcsont our country, to tho bow-wows bent; these
frcaks,as drawn by gifted pen, are portraits of our fellow men ;
thcy'ro all as much alike as pcaa, and they are all composed of
cheese." No doubt there are such tawdry skates, poor fish and
mental feather-weights '; but why in novels turn them looscf
Again I query, "What's the use?" The pessimists these days are
young, bright lads whoso withers are unwrungj why should they
write such grouchy tomes, despairing plays and sorehead poems?
When graybcards take their pens in hand to prove that all things
should be canned, that culture's perished from the earth and all
they sec has little worth, and paint a future black as pitch, they
doubtless have the gout or itch. But why should Youth waste
priceless ink to show the world is on the blink that man is but an
apoorgooso! I riso to a'sk you, what 'sthe use"?
Should the Medford footbu'll team
accept the offer of Toledo, Ohio for
post-season game they aro assured
of henrty support from at least ono
local organization. Knowing the pos
sibility of facing a deficit from such
an excessive guarantee as will be de
manded by tho Toledo team, tho
Jackson County Amusement Co. has
offered to assist the local team in
every possible way. Should tho boys
go In the hole on tho receipts of tho
big game, the amusement company
has offered them tho Fair Grounds
Pavilion, rent free for one dance or
a series of dnnces to make up this do
flcit. With this excellent backlne the
Medford boys can accept Tolotlo's
conditions, knowing that they will
speedily, mnko up, any defioit that
might bo incurred.
Moreover, tho pavilion manage
ment -.will assist the local team in
entertaining tho visiting players as
they did in tho fuso of tho Forest
Orove team . on Thanksgiving Day,
when the football -teams wore guests
of honor at tho Pavilion Thanksgiving
ball.
This loonl organization of progres
sive young buslnosB men Is doing
much toward fostering any worthy
projects that make' for the growth or
betterment of tho community. To
this end they have' proffered the use
of their $7500 nrnusoment pavilion,
rent free to nny worthy lodge or char
itable organization1 who are In nood
or ruislng funds.
My Motto
When thlnits go wrong, as tbey some
times will.
When the road you're trudging seems
I all n il HI.
n nvu me iunus are iuw anu uiu uuuis
. are high,
And you want to smile, but have to
sigh,
When care Is pressing you down a bit,
Rest, If you must but don't you quit.
Life Is queer with Us twists and turns,
As everyone of us Bometlmes learns,
And many a failure turns about
When he might have won had he stuck
it out;
Don't give up, though the pace seems
slow .; ... . ;' J,.
You may succeed with another blow.
Often the goal Is nearer titan"''
It seems to a faint and faltering man.
ortc-n the straggler has given up
When he might have ' captured the
victor'B cup.
And he learned too late, when the
night slipped down,
How close he was to the golden crown.
Success is failure turned lnsldev out
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt.
And you never can toll how close you
are,
It may be near when it seems afar;
bo stick to the fight when youre
hardest hit
It's when things seem worst that you
musn t quit. A. B. Cornell.
