has a poom, "Something Bad,", by
David Qreehood, Instructor in

f Convicts In the statd prison at
'Salem, are escaping to California al
most as fast as those enjoying their
liberty.
THERE are 800 disabled ex-service men in Oregon, who want
work. These men are not invalids or. cripples, but they are
seriously handicapped in the struggle for employment, ,because of
certain minor disabilities.. Governor Pierce-recently requested the
employers of Oregon to assist in providing them employment.
It would scarcely seem necessary to urge all employers in southern
Oregon who need men, to give these applicants the first chance. All
these ex-service men have been specially trained for those pursuits
for which they are, by previous training and physical condition, best
fitted. They are not men who want easy jobs or special favors. They
are casualties of the war who merely ask an opportunity to work.
If you are in need of men, write to United States Veteran Bureau
Ninth and Oak streets, Portland, Oregon and the bureau will furnish
full information regarding the men available, wages asked, and other
details. - - '
A more genuine public service could scarcely be conceived,- than
for the employers of the state to join together in seeing that these
ex-service men are given employment, the moment they are- able to
take it.

THE PEEVED SCRIBE
! (Corvalllt Qaxette-Tlmeii
'-'"The editor of the Pendleton
' East Oregonian says tho editor of
the Corvallis Oazetto-Tlmes Is a -Bolshevik..
If this sort of nccusa
' tlon came from a responsible citi
zen with brains enough to come In
out of the rain we would feel hurt,
but coming from whoro it comes
from it is meroly an Indication
that the said "Bolshevik" has trod
on the aald Peudloton editor's'
favorite form of Insanity. At the
present time, the K. O. seems to
think It Is Its solemn duty to do
fend the Idlosyncraclos ot Oregon's
accidental governor.
Espionage, or whistling by Iron
horses, scorns to be on tho docllno.

SECRETARY HOOVER, isn't an orator, but he makes some excel
lent "talks" which seldom receive tho attention thev deserve,
Here is an extract from one given only-two days ago, which was dis
covered in an inconspicuous part of R metropolitan newspaper. It is
tho final answer to tho feather-brained reformer, and the bomb toting
Bolshevik:
Our goal ln economic llfo Is to do thla great thing, to preserve
Individual Initiative, an equality of opportunity and thus a oonstantly
advancing- national standard of IIvIiik. Our economic and social system
Is fundamentally right. It has produced the largest advance In the
standard of living to the whole of our pcoplo that has ever been wit
nessed In history. Its faults are many hut they can, and ore being
corrected without destroying Its progress. It hus brought us steady
advances despite the fabulous losses of war, and must therefore have
great inherent vitality. In short this great conception of America that
every man should bo given an equality of opportunity to take that posi
tion ln the community to which ho Is entitled by virtue of his character
and ability, Is tho keystono of our structure. Wo must preserve it as
the most precious thing wo possess, for when all Is said nnd done the
flnor flowers of civilization do not grow from the cellars of poverty
any more than they grow from the palncoB of extravagance. , TTiey
grow from. the bettering comfort and well being of tho whole of great
peoples..

Clothes don't make the man. It's the hair-cut.
Our own opinion is that Prohibition is here to stay iii spite of all
dry agents can do.
It is well to remember that every sound belief the race now has
vas at one time called heresy. . . , '
One thing about turning lie other cheek is that you cau do it with
out paying some lawyer a fee.
About the only difference is that the old-fashioiied peddler sold
tinware and the new one rides in it.-
So live that it never will be necessary to ask the public to post
pone judgment until all the facts arc 'brought out. f ,
As we study the new jewelry it occurs to us that the human car's
recording, ability is not so remarkable as its tensile strength.
As a rulo you can get at the truth if you will take what a partisan
says and subtract four and divide bv two. .'

GRINNING OVER IT.
MY IIA1R is' falling out, my shoes are full of gout, I've mala
dies to spare, . but found out long ago that telling tales of
woo won't get me nnywhoro. Ileforo I learned the truth I sat
before my booth, beiyath my banyan tree, and handed out a
. sigh to neighbors passing by, ,and cried, "Ah, woo is mol" The
neighbors hurried on nil anxious to be gone, before my lalo was
sprung; they didn't wish to hear about my spavined ear, or my
bnek-firing lung. They did not wish to wait until I should rclato
a yarn of grief and groan; they had their chores to do,their er
rands to pursue, and troubles of their own. I heard them say,
"Oh, ehce, beneath his banyan tree that dreary relic sits, nnd
talks forevcrmorc of boil and corn and sore, anil all known
brand of fits. It's strange that ho's so dense, so lacking common
sense, he doesn't grasp the truth that men don't liko the jay
who talks for half a day about an aching tooth." Then I woke
up at last; the errors of tho past loomed largo before my eyes; I
said, "Though lame and sore, I'll fill tho air no mora, with my
heart rending sighs." My side has got a stitch, I suffer from tho
itch, n crick is in my back ; but you may hear me sing, may hear
my laughter ring, within my humblo shack.

K88EN, May 11. (Hy the Asso

mited an Important railway bridge
last night as their apparent answer
to , the verdict of - the French court
martini at IJuesscldorf Imposing tho
death . sentence upon 'Albert Schlog
etter, convicted- with six others on
charges of - sabotage and csplonuge.
The bridge was. an the main line
between Waltrop und Lunen. Tho
burgomasters of , these two towns
havo beer arrested by the French
military authorities and fines will be
Imposed. Cutting of- the- railroad
line Interferes with tho transporta
tion of coal and coke from the Dort
mund district and will cause consid
erable Inconvenience to the French.
