All laws passed bv the last legisla
ture, with the exception of those to
which the emergency clause was attach
ed, became effective Thursday. Among
those of interest to the average citizen
are the following: -
Carrying a red flag ia procession
or displaying one to express disappro
val of existing conditions or disloyalty
to the government is forbidden.
Teachers who speak the German lan
guage only cannot be employed in the
state. One of the bills passed provides
that all teaching in any school or insti
tution in the state must be in the Eng
lish language. Exception is made where
a foreign longuage ia taught.
Where a child is to be adopted, the
consent of the mother only is neces
sary i:i ecrtain cases. It sometimes hap
pens that the father i not known and
to prevent any possibility of the fathet
later making legal claims to an adopted
child,. the bill was introduced and passed.
No school district in the state of Ore
gon may pay less than $75 a mouth to
its school teacher. Marion county and
folk county were paying the lowest sal
aries in the state, many teachers receiv
ing only 145 a month. At the time the
bill was introduced in the last legisla
ture, Mrs. Alexander Thompson of The
Dalles produced official records to prove
that Marion county was about at the
bottom of the list in paying teachers.
tfetail stores are not permitted to re
turn old bread to the bakeries. When
the bill came upifor discussion in the
legislature, it was stated that the Port
land bakeries first sold bread to the
high brow hotels and what they had lelt
was returned and then sold to the sec
ond class hotels. What these could not
use was again returned and the process
kept up or rather down to the Chinese
joint. The official loaf must be one
pound, IVj pounds, 2 pounds, 8 pounds
or other weights in even pounds.
If any county wants to pay a bounty
on jack rabbits, it may be submitted
to the voters at a general or special etc
tion when 10 per cent of the legal vot
ers present a petition to the eounsy
court.

house. The auto owner will pay his or

I leave the city's nose behind, its stone and brick
built sectors, forsake a while the beastly grind, and a'l
the bill collectors. I climb on high the verdant hils, the
azure heavens o'er me, forgetting bailiffs and their bills
and all the things that bore me. It is a pleasant thing to
go away from toil and knitting; my car is working like
a jo, its cylinders all hitting.. Oh, Scott may sing of Loch
invar, whose charger was a hummer; but give to me the
modern car, and long, long days of summer. I chug along
by wood and glade and by the babbling waters, salute the
farmer with his spade, and gossip with his daughters. At
intervals my car I stop, some quaint old signboard read
ing; and now and then a rural cop would run me in for
speeding. . I loaf along, eight miles an hour, the motor
working nifty, and then, to show I have the power, I
shove her up to fifty. Through dale and dell, on dune
and down, I throw the dust behind me; and tired collector?
scour the town with bills, and cannot find. me. I look
around in silent glee upon the landscape's splendor, until
I run against a tree and bust a wheel and fender. Then I
go limping back to town, my kind of luck.berating; and
find the bailiffs all camped down in stern and watchful
waiting.
