Reserve I jot Enough.
Pendleton President J. N. lin.
' gess, of the State Woolerower.' A.
soclatlon. has called a meeting of the
executive committee for ADril in in
Pendleton, at which time a petition
will be framed and forwarded to the
Forestry Bureau. This will request
mat ror this year only an Increased
numoer of Bheep above the allot
ments be allowed on the National re
serves In Oregon. It will be asked
that the number be left the same as
last year at least. It la said that If
the sheepmen are compelled to sell
off now to the number they are al
lowed to take on to the reserves, it
would mean a great sacrifice, since
the present market Is much off owing
to the recent financial disturbance.
Sheepmen claim there is an actual
shortage of mutton sheep in the
United States, and that the present
low prices are caused by the finan
cial disturbance and not because of
an over supply.

The National Guard.
Portland, Ore.. April 20. With the
passage by the senate a abort time ago
or toe army bill, the way I. paved foi
ine estannsnment in Oregon of
number or new military companies.
In order to bring the fourth Oregon
regiment op to a regular army basis.
a. required by the war department, it
will be necessary to reourit five addi
tional companies.
Application, from almost ever
thriving city in the state are being
received at Portland by Adjutant
General Finzer. The task of picking
out toe new station. I. yet to be taken
np by the Oregon military board.
The desirability and advantage of
being the station of a military com
pany of the national Board service
should appeal to every enterpilsing
oommunity. Remarkable change,
b.ve coonrred in the past few years
in the naticnal guard service so that
It I. no longer a strike breaking ex
pedient but a part of the first line de
reuse ot the nation. Companies are
already located at such point, a. En
gene, Koseburg, Ashland, Cottage
urove, McMlnnvllle, wood burn, Ore
gon City. The Dalles. Baker City aud
fendleton, wbhe strong application.
for one of the new companies have
been tendered by such point, a. As
toria, Seaside, Can by, Silverton, Med
ford, Grant. Pass, Forest Grove, New
berg and Klamath Falls. Other appli
cations are being received weekly,
The purpose ot the military boaid is
to distribute those companies to the
best possible advantage among tbe
better types of citizen, of tbe state.
The problem that I. just now occu
pying the altention of the national
guardsmen, of whom there aie some
1400, i. that of suitable armories.
Tbe national government supplies
arm. and equipment, ammunition,
shooting galleries and range., and tbe
war depaitment bas suggested that tbe
various states should at least provide
suitable aimorie. for bousing the
troops aud storing equipment.. Port
land, of course, has an adequate ar-
moiy, provided and paid for by Mult
nomah county. Tbe last legislature
appropriated $100,000 to be paid out
at the rate ot $25,000 a year tor the
construction of armories in tbe small
er communities of tbe state, Ibis
appropriation is to be voted upon un
der tbe initiative aud tefeieudum at
tbe coming June election. From a
military standpoint tbe armories are
Indispensable, from an economic
standpoint they are a good invest
ment. . The state at present i. paying
$5000 per year rental, for Inadequate
rookeries. 1'bua it will be seen tbat
in a comparatively few years the ar
mories would pay for themselves in
the saving to tbe state on reutals.
The success , of tbe 'measure already
seems assured, tbe only obstacle being
a possible lack of understanding and
appreciation of tbe measure by the
voters of smaller communities who
are the ones, by the ay, most direct
ly Intel etted.

The . R. C. and the Flag.
'You honor yourself hy saluting tbe
flag:
It means much more than a painted
rag."
The custom ot floating the flag from
tbe school houses and having it prop
erly saluted baa met - with such suc
cess tbat it is regarded as tbe right
thing to do and we receive letters
from teachers in remote districts ask
ing tor tbe ceremony ot Hug raising
aud tbe form ot salute. Each year
he department of Oregon W. R. C.
presents a fine Aug to a school of the
city in which the convention is held.
Whin the contention wan held here
four years ago ti e Paik etitet nhool
received the Hag, ami though I hi'
school was not iu rexsiou an ifpioi ii
ate program whs leudered by tbe
pupils. Ibe flag ou tbe new school
bouse ou the heights was presented
by Cauby Corps W. R. O . and ring
ing and recitations by the school aud
interesting talks by tbe teacher. Prof.
Crouse, were given.
A. lo tbe ceremony of nag raising
we reoommend that in use by tbe
army and navy cf tbe United States,
as it is the most beautiful and Insplr-
ng ceremony. Ibis would require i
color guard consisting of sergeant,
corpoial and four guards, who march
to Ibeir positions at tbe flag pole, or
ine aias ot me uouse wnere tue Hal
yards aie seonred. Tbe ocrporal
carries the flag compactly folded, with
tbe brnoes iu suob position that tbey
oan be attached to the proper planus
n the halyards and secured by a loop
n the slack line that will bold it firm
ly folded until tbe flag is raised to
tbe top ot tbe stall, nben a tightening
of the lower line releases the loop aud
tbe flag hursts Into view in all its
glory. At this time the salute is
iven by raising tbe right Hand, palm
to Ibe fiont, to a b rizoutal position,
then raising it to the right ttmple,
then back to the horizontal, then
drop to tbe side, repeating the words,
'We pledge cur beads and our band.
to God and our conntiy; cue coun
try, one language and one flag."
On memorial occasions tbe nag I.
raised in the same manner and after
it U unfurled is tben lowered to
bout half distance ou tbe staff when
the halyards are t cured.
Lowering tbe flag at close of school
is done in similar order, tbe school
standing in line with uuoovered beads
and giving tbe same s-lute. Corres
pondence from teachers or otlieis in
legard to patriotic work in schools
oordlally solicited.

Plan to Stop Theft of Stamp. ,.
Chloago, April 20. The operation
ot a youthful postage atamp tbiet In
Cbioago, .mall a. tbey were, brought
about a change in tbe federal regula
tion, governing tbe aee of stamps.
Incidentally-tbe boy wl)o was .in

about this change in tbe law baa re
formed. Who be I. wU probably
never be made public, a. a machine

It was some months ago that the'uo
named boy wa. discovered selling

In stamps which were stolen by offloe
boy. and messengers.
Sec let service men discovered there
wa. no way ot .topping the business
or prosecuting "the broker." Tbe
confectioner declared be purobased

no reason to believe be waa receiving
stolen goods. ' The attention of Post
master General Meyer wa. called to

Student Loan Fnnd.
In tbe March number of the Univer
sity of Oregon Bulletin, a oopy ot
which has just been received. Presi
dent Campbell discusses "Student
Loan Funds. " He says that tbe ex
perience of tbe past few years with
the present university fund indioatea
very oleaily that a much larger sum
could be used to advantage, lie cites
many Instances wbere a small loan
ha. enabled a student to complete hi.
oourse and says it would be a gieat
thing if tbe university were able to
say to any duservinj; man or womau
that a loan of $100 a year could be
depended on for each of tbe four
years spent in the university. Such
a loan could be made safe against lona
by tbe guaranty of a number of men.
Ibe money for a laige fund will bave
to be secured through gifts from in
dividuals interested in helping de
serving students through tbe univer
sity. These gifts will probably range
in amount from 25 to $100. and a
luud of $10,000 ought to be reached
in a very few years. Presideut Camp
bell believes tbat loan, are better
than gift, for (wo reasons, tbe first.
tbat the self-reliance and self-iespect
cf tbe student is preset ved by tbe
obligation to repay tbe loan, and tbe
second, tint tbe loan repaid goes to
help another student through college.
