Morality: 1.9 4 natural Btate, as men of sense agree, the natural thing is the moral thing. But when men outgrew jungle ethics and invented' compassion" and unselfishness, morality became a much more complicate business.' It became and remains largely a matter of hiving regard for the other fciiow' '"; 7 : ; :-'-!v By common consent, suicide is unmoral. The suicide, in nearly all cases, is dodging. Yet when a man deliberately sacrificies his life to save others, which is suicide, people feel that he; has been a credit to his race. The result in both cases is the same; the' man is dead. But in one case his action scams ignoble, and in the other it seemed noble be cause he thought only of others." , I Habitual drunkenness, by common consent, is unmoral. Yet if by getting drunk every day a man could render great service to society, the intemperance would seem noble re ffardleea of what it did to the inebriate. Society frowns upon the drunk because 'he spends for himself the money his fam ily needs, becomes a public nuisance and usually makes him self unfit for any useful service. Robli) Hood was a thief, and stealing isn't moral, and yet because the gay rogue divided his spoils with the poor he remains"even. Co this moral age a popular hero:" ' ' , ', When civilized nations apropriate to their own use the lands "of a . backward . people, the occupation is theft and nothing less. 'Yet, because the world benefits, society sees nothing) dishonest fn the business. " v ' A " ,7 This is not to Argue that the end always justifies the means, but only that society, in its present imperfect state, regards' as moral that which seems to contribute to its own security and happiness. ?! ' ' ' ' ' Reformed Villains ' . A journalist has awakened to the fact that the villain is no longer considered 'indispensable in the novel, and that where he does appear it often is difficult to tell hero from villain, i Certainly Dickens and the other novelists of his time'! offered blackhearted rogues in plenty. . But writers today Are not so generous.'' ' r "? '' W'"' , V " '"' ' ' ' ;. Realism fn literature is the fashion of the day, yet a change 'has come ;ovcr the realist. '''Once he 'Was down on people 'r then he became sternly impartial; now he is infinite-1 jy. tender with, his unfortunates. Unlike the -villains of an earlier literature, those of the present-day novel are pitied as victims- of heredity, environment and temptation-.- -- An English critic says: "Don't let us deprive ourselves of villains! let us have some sweeping emotions. There is a cer tain elevation about the villain r he; does the i thing-handsomely." . w-V't .'V" -s -i .UK '. '' : This change in attitude toward the villains of ifction has not been experienced by authors alone. It is something felt by society at large. Until a generation ago the rogue,- both in and out of books, was looked upon 'as unrtgenerate, the master of his own destiny, undeserving of sympathy and de serving of every form of punishment afforded 'by the here and hereafter. In recent years; there "has 'come into being a nenerstion which looks upon the V villain as "more sinned against than sinning. Society wants him. reformed rather than ponished. And whether he shares this feeling or-not the author dares not nm Vouhter to- it - TIa ta fn th lltTV tliltlWft ) St"aAf. ' I A I IV r vt eVA s lit m a r " . j Poor terminal facilities for authors and speakers often nullify all their excellent wisdom.; A man may possess ull kinds of useful knowledge, but fail in "discerning when to have done."' - : ? 1 ; Brevity is the touchstone of success in any field., You may offend your customer, your reader of' your hearer in one respect and please him in another. But if you tire him with your tediottsness, you lose him altogether. j The newspaper leads the style today in pun ana cogency and has educated the public to the expectation of receiving much in little. The well-executed cartoon will impart a whole philosophy of life at a glance, or provide silent com ment on current events worth a column of words. t I ; Brevity is the soul of wit. . Yet they who have wit, or think they have, are in especial danger of saying too much. Someone has said: "It is better to say nothing and bo thought a fool than to open the mouth and dispel all doubt." - Ba brief!

This is good news for we want the boys with us. Klam ath's remarkable summer climate, her high elevation, her people's marked hospitality, all combine to give summer meetings a handsome setting.

' We knew that Klamath Basin furnished a lot of good things for Southern California, but never until today did wo realize that Ve could ship fence posts down to that country. Bob Cbyne, who has a large ranch between- Los Angeles and San Diego, is shipping several -carloads of fence posts from this county. He found that posts here were aya.lable and down there you can travel for hundreds of miles and never see anything that would make a post. Bob says he would .likfe to ship the big spring off the Edgewood ranch down south so the people there could experience one good drink of pure water. - ' "' ; Singing the Old -.1 i Do Your FeeHurt? ,. . , i i i r ' t r , Have you weak or flat feet?
