French Grammar Finished The second year French class I finished the regular french gram- j mar last semester. The work in it i has been mostly the study of ir- ' regular French verbs, and much I time has been spent on the drill or these verbs. This semester the students will spend their time in reading French | books and in learning and acting out French plays. The books being k read are some of the best short stories to be obtained, and they prove very instructive and interest ing. The French plays give tie students practice in pronouncia-' tion, as well as “pep” to the reg- ular study.

PIE A LA MODE ^i/nycd/n'A' Ca ndieS} Object to Attempt to Force Private Stage Line Out of Business A matter that the public alone can decide, is to be faced in Ore gon, in the very near future. The railroad companies are en- tering the field of motor bus trans portation and it has reached a point for the general public to make a definite decision whether exclusive patronage should not be extended to the pioneer, privately- owned stage lines, that they may continue in business—or whether support of the new corporation con trolled lines shall assist them in putting their local competitors out of business. The railroads are not entering [ this field through philanthropic promptings—to improve service and reduce rates. It is, obviously, a matter of securing absolute control of transportation facilities by the proress of elimination until they i quality of service, I may dictate schedules that are most economical to maintain and rates that insure an ample profit. The Motor coach problem is one [ that should be food for thought right now on the part of the trav- [ eling public.—Subscriber. Want. Athletic Organization To the Editor: I would like to create interest among the young men of Vernonia in an athletic or-1 ganization. As the situation is now, the young men not in school or through with school have no place1 of recreation other than the streets or the pool halls, both places being [ of no physical or mental benefit. We need a hall or room where we , can go in the evenings for social and physical development. What. I I have in mind is an athletic or- ■ ganization where we can box, wrestle, play sports and otherwise I get physical development. Not only would it help us but! it would help the community; raise the moral standard of its youths X and make them better citizens.
