THE S. P. MAKES A GREAT DISCOVERY
Turn thmuund auil s!XtV-Ohe rTUests
through other sources, and the nec
essary correction administered re
gardless of whether or not he ad
mits the wrong-doing.
Putting a premium on confession
can succeed only In confusing values
in the child's mind. Only If a child
voluntarily confesses and stands
ready to accept punishment Is there
any value in his honesty. Even then,
the punishment, If he has earned It,
should be forthcoming.
If it Is Justly motcd out, the child
accepts 1t .without resentment, for
the aonse of responsibility which
prompted his spontaneous confes
sion will cause him also to accept
fair punishment. . ,
The fact that the child under
stands , that confession does not
bring with it freedom from respon
sibility will tend only to make him
unduly secretive if the punishment
he receives Is harsh.
All that is necessary when a child
has done wrong Is that he should,
as far as Is within his ability, make
good any material harm done, and
honestly wish to mend his ways.

CONFESSION NO V1RTIE
By Alice Judson I'eale
The mother of a seven-year old
made a practice of encouraging htm
freely to tell of any misdeed with
the understanding that If he con
fesfccl he would not be punished. . ,
She had a revelation when one day
she overheard a conversation be
tween him and a visitor, "My mo
ther doesn't care what I do. I do
whatever I like, and I know mother
won't punish me as long as I tell
her the truth."
Obviously this mother's tactics, al
though backed by the worthiest mo
tives, were not wholly successful. '
It Is not well to make a virtue of
confession,- for- there is nothing
about confession In itself to absolve
the Individual of responsibility. For
this reason among others no child
should be urged to confess.

beset plump genu. Judging from
Vie reports on the hysterical excit
ability 1 of the upstate massos, the
campaign should be broader in scope,
and have for Its objective: How to
Keep the Shirt On.
The religious question is 1 now
feared In the 1833 Oregon primary
campaign. The Governor will arise
to the occasion, following a speech
by George Joseph, Jr., or the Hon.
Rufe Holman, and proceed to cut
"the wages of sin."

AGREE with "W. P. C." in Wednesday's "letter box,"
that the excavations for the new county court should
be done by hand labor instead of by machine.
There would be comparatively little money involved. Put
every little bit of gainful employment this winter is going to
count. And during the depression, the more men on any job
and the fewer labor saving machines, the better for all con
cerned, . .
We are glad to say that the County Court shares this view,
and has officially informed the Mail Tribune that as far as
it is practically possible, all -county, work will be arranged to
provide the maximum amount of employment for the maximum
number of local people, ,, , '
Even if such a policy should increase the total expense of
public work which is doubtful it would be justified, for it
would combine public improvement construction, with the most
economical and ircslrable method of unemployment relief. .

CALIFORNIA
(Omaha World-lleraltl)
California Is credited that Is the
word the dispatch uses with the
lowest birth rate of any of the west
ern states. And that la something
hard to understand. It California
really is lagging on birth rate it must
be the first thing she ever lagged In.
It may be, of course, that she Is
merely the victim of ihablt. Having
gotten Into the habit of not counting
her heat prostrations, her earth
quakes, her drouths, her floods, her
bank failures her deaths and fore
closures. It la ' Just possible that she
has neglected to keep track of her
births. Surely If California is all
t,iat her sublimely contented resi
dents claim ahe Is, there should be
no reason why they should not be
only too happy to bring others into
the light of that western sunshine
where grapefruit grows as large as
hogsheads and the middle western
weary are at rest.

'T'HIS mystery airplane flight over the Arctic by I'nrkcr
Cramer, emphasizes the sensational progress of aviation the
past few years.
Not long ago, ft flight over "the north Atlantic would have
been heralded far nnil wide,'Hs a breath-taking and hazardous
adventure. . . '
Put. ten days ago this man Cramer hopped off from the
Detroit air field, with barely a personal notice in the press.
Nothing to talk about, Cramer had merely decided to chart
an air mail routo, through tho Arctic circle from America to
northern Europe.
A week later he landed in Greenland, with the remark that
the snow covered terrain over which ho had flown was strik
ingly beautiful in tho sunlight,., and in the future would 'be a
"great scenic attraction for tourists."
, Yesterday he hopped to Iceland and for all we may know,
may enjoy his Sunday dinner in London.
Meanwhile, Jimmy Mollispri "lands in England, from Aus
tralia, CHtabUshiiiK a new Bir-rer!ord' Pangborh and Ilcrndon
hop from Siberia to Tokio, Japan, and Minn Amy Johnson, dar

Ijondon around the world.. .
It is Hll routine "stuff" in the day's news. .
THE SAME OLD WHANG-DOODLE
rON'T you sometimes feel sorry. for these people who always
suspect the worst in their fellow men!
They must have a terrible time, seeing a plot in every plan,
a "nigger" in every woodpile, something diabolical and sin
ister in every effort, in which they don't happen to tako a lead
ing part.
Such gum-shoo "penny shoakers" are always with us, but
the present parlous times have increased their number,
v
A FEW days ago, n group of representative citizens, realiz
ing the seriousness of the local - sewage problem, ami
actuated by the most disinterested motives of community serv
ice, formed an organization to facilitate the best practical
solution. This .action, as far as we can learn, was a perfectly
spontaneous one, was neither induced nor approved by the city
council, but the hitter body, anxious to protect the health and
welfare of the city in every possible way, naturally welcomed
this assistance, as they would any other, from any of thjir
constituents.
Put now one reatls this movement ;
"reflects a very dark shadow. It wns concclvrd In sin. born in
iniquity and fraught with more dangors than the original bond
scheme" etc., etc.
WIIIST-SITS-PIC-IOUS!
Another dastardly plot to rob the long suffering common
people of this fair city, and hoist that arch villain "Pop"
Gates, the "subsidized press'' and all tho imps of darkness, once
again on the "gravy train."
IN ALL seriousness ISN'T IT A JOKE?
And the amazing feature of the whole business, is how for
so many years, the people of Medford have patiently endured it.
Put judging by the past there is no end to it. Every con
structive movement in this community, from street paving,
through pure water to J he airport, has been simihirly stigma
tised. While the judicious have grieved, the rank and file
have laughed, and Medford lias-gone steadily on, to finer and
better things.
And so Medford will continue to go on.
Put it is really rather a shame. There are so many troubles
in this world that ean't be avoided, so many evils that can't
be corrected, it seems a terrible pity to waste time in manufac
turing purely imaginary ones, to waste energy as for the good
of the city, energy MUST sometimes be wasted, in eombattinu
tliem.
