Stanfield in Action.
Knows How to Get to Work
One thing that cannot be charged against
Senator Robert N. Stanfield is that he neglects
his work. Another thing that may be said in
his favor is that he knows how to go about his
work in such a manner that he accomplishes
something.
The effort to get a bill through Congress
at this session that will recompense a number
of Oregon counties in taxes lost through rever
sion of the O. & C. land grants is an illustra
tion. Stanfield was asked to introduce the bill
after citizens and officials of the affected coun
ties had been talking about it for months, and
did.
Following which he has begun prodding
the variov.3 county courts into action at a time
they had begun to lie down on the job. This,
by the way, is no reflection on Klamath coun
ty, for although it is oneof the counties which
has the least to gain, has been to the very front
in the endeavor.
"I do not want this bill to appear to be a
mere political gesture. 1 want your committee
to appear with all the facts in hand, ready to
present a finished case," writes Stanfield.
And under Stanfield's prodding the com
mittee will probably get back to Washington
ready to go to the bat.

Camp Fires.
Around Which Womanhood Blossoms
Back a few years, about the lifetime of a
young girl, a fond mother and father, deeply
concerned with the happiness of their adoles
cent daughters and their daughters' friends,
worked out the beginnings of what later be
came the ritual of the Camp Fire Girls.
That was up on Lake Sebago, Maine. A
wonderful camp was called Wohelo, which
name was formed from the first to letters of
three words Work, Health and Love. The
word Wohelo continues today as the watch
word of the Camp Fire Girls, and their slogan
is Give oervice.
The ceremonials begun up at Wohelo in
Maine have been fostered down the years,
standing the test of time because they meant
something in the character formation of genu
ine womanhood. The Camp Fire program
provides fortunate stimulus and guidance
along those lines that make for womanhood
in the broad, old-fashioned sense of the word.
Those ceremonials are symbols, loved by
the girls because they are a means of express
ing their ideals. And they are the noblest
ideals of which the girls are capable. Here is
the law of the Camp Fire "Seek Beauty;
Give Service; Pursue Knowledge; Be Trust
worthy; Hold on to Health; Glorify Work; Be
Happy."
This is the week of celebration of 1 60,000
Camp Fire Girls in 2 1 different lands in honor
of the Fourteenth Birthday of the organiza
tion. It will not be difficult to appreciate that
they are celebrating something genuinely
worth while.

with biting HM'in:
"My dear Hortor. you have, for
tho moment, forgotten yourself."
By CLARK
The steelworker or the mason
or the carpenter employed la
erecting building mar be quite
ignorant of lta general design:
or at any rate, he may not keep
It conauntly In mind. So It Is with
man In working through the daya
of hi j life, he takes little thought
of lta character an a whole.
If there la any Importance at
taching to a man' career, If he !
lays himself out carefully for
some special work. It should be
apparent that It is all the more
necessary for him to turn his at
tention now and then to Its plan.
Its general outlines.
Of course, to do that, be must
hare some progress In the art of
understanding himself.
He must know what Li his real,
chief and foremost object In life
what it is that he most wants
In order to be happy.
He must find oat what his vo
cation really Is the part he has
to play, his general relation to
the world.
It haa been observed before
that If a man maps out Import
ant work tor himself on great
lines, a glance at bis' miniature
plan of his life will more than
anything else stimulate and
rouse him, urge him on to action
and keep him from false paths.
We all need a goal.
It was observed by Schopen
hauer that just aa the traveler,
on reaching a height gets a con
nected view over the road he
has taken, with lta many turns
and windings; so it Is only when
wo have completed a period In
our life, or approach the end of It
altogether, that wo recognlxe the
true connection between all our
actions whnt It Is we have
achieved, what work we have
done.
The same truth may be more
broadly expressed by saying that
the first forty years of life fur
nish the text, while the rcmaln-
KJ.WAIRD.
Ing thjrty or forty supply the
commentary; and that without
the commentary we are unable
to understand aright the true
sense of the text. 1 j
...
It Is only when we are at the
summit of life that we see the j
precise chain of cause and effect, i
the exact value of all our efforts, j
For It Is an old truth that as .
long aa we are actually engaged '
In tbe work of life, we always j
act In accordance with the na
ture of our character, under the
Influence of motive and within
the limits of our capacity in a
word, from beginning to end, uu
dor a law of necessity.
"Are you suro this handbag Is

A good way for a young man
to find out how he appears to
young woman Is lo frankly ques
tion his sisters, or a pretty cous
in, or a young married woman
relative who tuia been populsr
with men. Tiisy can be depended
upon to speak frankly. Your
trouble may be that you are not
outspoken enough. You must not
expect girls to be forward about
making friends with you; ft Is
your place to take the Initiative.
Don't retire Into a ahell because
one girl doesn't "take" to you.

Just been put through.
As they rounded tho last curve
in tho winding trail some tour

like this before, watched It with
open-mouthed curiosity, neither 1
