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

The French plays give tie
students practice in pronouncia-'

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

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.
