Friday, July 25 1 Verflônla Eagle, Vernonia, Oregon Eight Hearing is Hostile To Short Cut Plan (From page 1) dared by several speakers to be especially expensive. Some es timated the cost of the whole as high as $1,000,00,0. Mr. Sheely was given the op portunity for rebttal, and he maintained that the road, he was certain, would not cost halt that much. He himeslf would not favor so expensive a road, nor would he approve of a bond issue to cover the cost. He de clared that a reasonable tax for three years would pay the cost of construction. Seaside Opposed Irving Restraint Need of Modern Generation? Don Juan Is by no means a mas ter of love. On the contrary, he cannot love, because he has not learned that which can be experi enced only at home In the nursery —fidelity. He who has seen at home how true parents are to each oth er, how faithful Is their love for each other, how faithful is their love for their children, as a rule will himself become a faithful i nd dependable person. He will sim ply copy what he has seen at Lome. Today we are in a tidal wave of faithlessness. The in numerable divorces of our day will become even more numerous when l be children of the divorced parents jrrow up. They very likely will not be faithful to their sex partners, because tney have not experienced what fidelity Is, and what Its vulue may be. They miss the happiness . nd satisfaction of fidelity, and take freedom in exchange. They are ap pallingly free. They can always fulfill their desires until the fulfill ment itself Is no more desired. Within their souls they long for duties. In the hands of a guide one Is apt to be abused. Love is the only protection against abuse. If we love our guide we never feel bused, and if he loves us he will certainly not abuse us. All of us have met such guides in our child hood. The few—becoming less and less rare—who have not enjoyed ibis experience in their first years, it seems to me, can never be entire ly happy. Freedom is all right, but affectionate coercion is also a I necessity for men as well as for animals.—From “Critique of Love,” by Fritz Wittels. A. L. Palmer, president of the Seaside Chamber of Com merce, declared that Seaside wishes a shorter cut to the beach, but that it favors a state road built on a state road pro gram. In conclusion, Mr. Gates, speaking for the commission, stated its readiness to sponsor a shorter route to the coast whenever the different communi- ties could get together and agree on a route that would serve the interests of the state as a whole without reference to individual interests of the districts through which such a road might or might not pass. The only other member of the commission present was M. A. Lynch of Redmond. Roy A. Klein, state highway engineer, Varying Opinions as to was also in attendance. “Books All Should Have” There Is a house In Chelsea G. A.

Damon, a Pythagorean of Syracuse, was cele brated for his friendship with Pythias, or Phlntias, a member of the same sect. Pythias plotted against the life of Dionysius I of Syracuse and was condemned to die. As Pythias wished to ar range his affairs, Damon offered to place himself in the tyrant’s hands as his substitute, and to die In tils stead should he not return on the appointed day. At the last moment Pythlus came back and Dionysius was so struck by the fidelity of the friends that he pardoned the of fender and begged to be admitted Into their fellowship. Assemblies of Bards The word eisteddfod (from the Welsh eistedd, to sit) is a name applied generally In Welsh to any meeting or concourse of people, but more particularly to the assemblies, who anciently formed an hereditary- order. These meetings were forbid den hy Edward I, at the conquest of Wales, byt they were renewed by Henry VII, who was of Welsh origin. They were revived during tlie last century, and eisteddfods are held periodically at which prizes are awarded for proficiency in the Welsh tongue, and for poemc In that language, and playing on .’he harp.
