ORESIDENT ROOSEVELT enjoys another advantage. The

No armed foe is knocking at our gates, no section of the country
is in rebellion. Our dangers are not from without but only
from within; we are not called upon to destroy, but merely to
effect a readjustment.
To effect that readjustment, however, we need the same
qualities of national character we needed over 70 years ago,
and again, 50 years later.
In a word, we only need this GOOD SOLDIERS!
WHAT is a good soldier! A good soldier is a good citiz-n,

WHAT PBICB PROPHYLAXIS?
Some of our readers, the dentora at
any rate, may recall an outburst of
the conductor, which wae oniy too
evidently Inspired
by an Item In a
dentist's bill, td
wit, "Prophylaxl
5." It Is only
human nature to
feel bitter when
you pay a doctor
bill of any kind. X

or a beautiful denture, or at least a
hole he can feel with hia tongue
and It la always less painful to pay
for a tangible thing, that la. In every
transaction except a funeral.
In the outburst instigated by the
five-berry trick I reiterated the pro
posal that all dental schools should
be done away with, as they give stu
dents virtually a medlca course any
way. Students who Intend to prac
tice dentistry should be required to
complete the regular medical course
in a regular medical school, and then
they should receive whatever post
graduate technical Instruction the
specialty they elect to practice re
quires. For general dentistry from

the one, or two years the. medical

(Even now there la a steadily Increas

the degree of Doctor of Medicine and
then follow whatever technical courses
they need to qualify them to practice
dentistry. Mind, a Doctor of Medi
cine, a man or woman with the M. D.
degree, and a license to practice medi
cine, requires no further qualifica
tion to practice dentistry If he so de
sires. So, you see, my proposal is
both practical and sensible It is just
a few years ahead of the times.
Another proposal I reiterated In the
outburst Inspired by the charge of
five stmoleons for cleanliness was that
the dentists relinquish trade use of
the title of "Doctor" to practicing
physicians exclusively, for the sake of ;
Word "Pioneer" Brings
Long- Winded Debate in
House of Representatives
(Mary Grelner KeUy)
SALEM, March 3,--(8pl) Stranger,
there was blue blood In ttioso cov
ered wagons) And the veins of the
oxen drivers' descendants swell up
In convulsive Indignation at the
promiscuous use of the word "pio
neer." That alone, caused an hours
debate on house bill 440 which came
up for final passage at tonights
house session.
The measure, granting a free hunt
ing and fishing license to war vet
erans and to "pioneers" who have
resided In the state of Oregon for
over 00 years, Just barely survived
getting killed In the free-for-all
Wihtch followed Its final reading.
Representative Hall, of Multnomah,
who comes from covered wagon an
cestry, regretted the language of the
bill. In satirical vein, he pointed
to the fact that Representative Nich
ols, who was born In Douglas coun
ty, 01 years ago, was, In the lang
uage of the bill, the only pioneer
In the house.
"And there's poor Dr. Best of
Pendleton." he said, "who has been
In this atate only 85 years. He will
.have to wait until he la 04 years
before he can be classed a pioneer
and get a free hunting and fishing
llMn "
Representative Hall suggested If
years of restdenca was all that con
stituted a pioneer, that the time
limit be set up still further so he
could be known as "John Hall, the
boy pioneer of Oregon." He Is 32.
Such carryings on as this, got un
der the hide of "Cougar" Ben Nich
ols, who gave "young Hall" a verbal
threshing, as he paced back and
forth across the aisle. He, Ben
Nichols, dldnt drive any oxen across
th plains, he said, but he helped
to clvlllne some of the ones that
had been dumped out here.
"I never had a street car to' ride
In, nor a bus, he said, "but I walk
ed my long miles to school, after I'd
done a man's alee Job of chores.
And when I came horns at night.
I studied my books by the light of
tallow candles that I .helped my
mother make. If those men who
for 60 years hare lived and worked
out the problems of civil Ira t Ion for
this state aren't worthy of the name
of pioneer, I'd like to know why."
And Ben Nichols sat down with re
sounding emphasis.
Then the house lined up on both
Idee. It was the covered wagon
descendants versus the native sons
and fists began to clench all around.
The natives tried to unseat the oxen
drivers and the covered wagoners
tried to run over the rest of the
bunch.
Finally somebody ca!.d attention
to ths bill and its merits, and ev
erybody cooled off. The bill was
amended and what was formerly
"pioneer- became "any cltlsen." It
passed unanimously.
Representatives and Mrs. Earl Day
were honored today by a house res
olution congratulating them on their
silver wedding anniversary. With his
public welfare. I even went so far
aa to offer the dentists a trade name
that would distinguish them unmis
takably. Wouldn't Dentor Doe be a
more convenient announcement to
the public than the clumsy Doctor
Doe, Dentist, or the mystic John Doe,
D. D. 8.7 I think so, and many ex
cellent dentists have assured me they
think so, too. But some of the breth
ren whose letters indicate they write
with greater facility than they think,
seem to resent everything I said In
thia outburst. Including my yodel
about the price of prophylaxis.
Maybe I'm wrong. It la my under
standing that prophylaxta means pre
vention of Infection, and Implies the
use of surgical asepsis, rigid clean 11-
ness. perhaps antiseptics, sterilized in
struments and materials . . . and if
I'm right about that I aay the den
tist, physician, surgeon or specialist
who Itemizes prophylaxis In his bill
Is simply cleaning up while he has
the victim covered.

The "legislative luncheon club" is
getting to be quits a racket. And
it's always aome man who pays and
pays and pays. It started out with
that group of workers who grind
out the bills In the legislation and
rulea committee room. They ,had a
plate of sandwiches and a pot of
coffee brought up to the room, ao
they wouldn't have to waste too
much time at noon.
Gradually various legislators 'drift
ed In and were Invited to Join the
"club." They took turns paying for
the sandwiches. More legislators and
more stenographers and newspaper
men Joined the group. Now It takes
several trays of sandwiches and gal
lons of coffee to feed the group
each noon. After each luncheon, a
different legislator la warned that
,he la to be host next day, whether
he likes It or not. Today It was
.Speaker Earl Snail.
Some legislators aren't broke yet,
in spite of the state pay having
stopped two weelu ago. Otherwise
the rest of them might go hungry.
It's really refreshing to see someone
like Representative "Doc" Best of
Pendleton, who can still take aa high
as 30 leglslatora and their wives to
dinner. He did that last night, and
trusted them alone with the menu
too.
Several people around the state
.house reported In excited sotto voce
that they had seen an editor from

Jackson county delegation finally
reassured the more hysterical rumor

was generally reputed to go unarm

visitor came today. It was Repres
entative Harvey Wells . of Portland
speaking: "I ask that the courtesies
of the floor be extended to Jack

The last mentioned was born one
week ago, and, needless to say, is
the first grandchild.

Congressman Byrnes played a bet
ter game. While McDuffle had the
advice of Garner, Mr. Byrnes took h
own advice. He saw Mr. Ralney on
the sly and fixed things up. Mr.
Garner Is very smart, and Mr. Mc

smartness. It was Just unfortunate
that he happened to be too smart.
The appointment of Rexford O.
Tugwell as assistant secretary of ag

Rex Tugwell learned about farming

Mr. Roosevelt has received plenty
of protests against his selection of
Miss Prances Perkins as secretary of
labor.
Apparently Mrs. Roosevelt had
more to do with the .selection than
this column was able to confess last
week. Her closest friends say she
centered on the selection and carried
It through.
Mrs. Roosevelt will weigh more In
the administration than her actual
poundage.
A reason Arthur Mullen of Nebras
ka didn't get the attorney general
ship was that he campaigned too ar
dently for It.
Mr. Mullen was the pioneer Roose
velt -for-Presldent man. He ' was
Roosevelt's floor manager at Chicago.
Roosevelt s forces thought he was
sufficiently paid for his floor mana
gership by the fact thnt he was floor
manager. That created a situation.
He didn't get the lob . . . but he
will be a federal Judge In his home
state of Nobrnska. He could not see

He will stay In New York.
The new administration Is wet,

You should have seen the dance
that Roosevelts henchmen staged at

have seen Huey Long playing the

A trustworthy wireless says that

The Impression Is strengthening that

The Pomona Grange la planning to
make an active campaign for the use
of home grown products this year.
Mrs. Bertha Bursell, chairman of
the Pomona Heme Economics com
mlttee, has Issued to all subordinate
Grange Home Economic committees,
a resolution requesting the co-opera
tion of these committees.
The resolution la as follows:
"That, Whereas, It Is the main ob
ject, of the Grange to work for the
econom,lo Interest of the farmer,
"And Whereas, farm products ship
ped long distances tend to create
an unfair competition with home
grown products and add to the cost
to the consumer;
"Therefore, be It resolved that we,
the undersigned Grange members
agree to be loyal to our local pro
ducers and buy only local and Ore
gon grown and processed products
when possible to procure them in
our markets, and we further urge
our merchants to handle only the
above-named products when they can
be had."
Space Is reserved below this reso
lution for the signatures of Orange
members.
It Is generally understood that
about 90 per cent of the buying for
the table Is done by the women. This
being the case, it la necessary to In
terest the women In thia project,
and It Is hoped that every Grange
woman will sign her name to this
resolution.
When the local merchant buys out
side fresh or processed products, the
money Is gone, so far as our com
munity Is concerned. It will not be
returned to the merchant In other
trade.
When the merchant buys home
grown products, the money stays at
home and Is again used to buy ne
cessities, and In this way will again
find Its way to the pocket of the
merchant.
When local cannery products are
bought by the canneryman and the
merchant, the money wlU again find
its way back to the merchant for
seed, hardware, lumber, machinery,
provisions and clothing. This be
comes a "ring around a rosle" game,
one In which every member of our
local community can play, and be
benefitted by.

TWENTY YEARS 'AGO TODAY

(It waa Thursday.)
Out election passed off quietly last
Friday and the result was that there
were 74 votse cast for the bonds and
69 against them, making a total of
133 votes altogether. It seemed as
though everybody that was old enough
to vote turned out and voted, but
there must be more than 133 adults
In an Incorporated city like this. If
there la not don't the reader sympa

Interest, $600 annually, and to raise

or three of them, worked hard and
steady to gain their point and we
cheerfully give our mayor, Hon. Wm.
Von der Hellen, credit for being the
shrewdest political workers in the
olty, and being the most Indomitable
worker, for there were but very few
but what ho visited and used all of
his persuasive powers on to convert
them to his views, using different
tactics, as the case required. Eagle

Ye Poet's Cornei
Spectator of the Hills.
O tree upon the mountain grim
You seem to chant a hymn.
On you undeflled the sunlight spills,
Spectator of the hills.
Your green boughs beckon ceaselessly
As though to say come up and see.
Come watch the misty clouds go by
Where you can almost touch the sky.
Here are the cool, fresh drops of rain
That on cloud ships may not sail
again
The maglo of the frost and flakes of
snow.
Their transformation of the world
below.
And the message that these breeees
bring
Is of birds, quite unafraid to sing
And flowers which unmolested grow;
Bright' leaves among the snow.
Sometimes the winds blow strong and
free.
You hold to earth tenaciously
Your outflung boughs quick to defy
This rough Intruder of the aky.
Trivial town below 1 Houses row by
row,
A restless people, moving to and fro.
In Inconsequential way
They have their day.
Fruits ripen; crops perfect their yield
And leave their golden stubble in
the field.
Years corns and go.
Do you care or do you know?
Erect and patient welcoming the
sun,
And dark against Its fire when day
Is done.
Spectator of the hills, you wait
a sentinel at horlzen's gate.
