1t was clearly meant that all
men as well as all women should
marry; and those who, for what
ever reason, miss this abvious
destiny are, from natures point
of view, failures. 1t is not a
question of personal felicity
(which in eight cases out of ten
may be more than problematic), },
but of a race responsibility. The
unmarried man is a skuller, who
in order to secure his own ease,
dooms some woman, who has a
rightful claim upon him, to
celibacy. And in so doing he
defrauds himself of the oppor-
tunities for mental and moral
development which only the
normal experience can provide.
He deliberately stunts the stat
ure of his manhood, impoverish-
es his heart and brain and
chokes up all the sweetest po-
tentialities of his soul. To him
self he is apt to appear like the
wise fox That detects the trap,
though be ever so cleverly
baited; that refuses to surrender
his liberty for the sake of an
appetizing chicken or rabbit
which may after all be a decoy.

EDITOR "JOURNAL":-I understand
that some newspaper publication in
Shelton recently criticised me Il have
not seen the artic1e) on the supposition
that I had killed seven deer in the
Olympic mountains and was unable to
bring the meat out for use; whoever
published the criticism evidently jump
ing at the conclusion that had wan
tonly destroyed game for the mere lust
of killing, and had left it to spoil in
the woods. Permit me to say through
your columns that any such assertions
as the foregoing are unqualifedly
false and do me a gross injustice.
Presenting that the statement has been
made through ignorance of the facts,
1 wish to state that I never in my life
left any meat, hides or horns to spoil
in the woods, and on the occasion re-
ferred to l came back to the nearest
settlement and procured the services
of a crew of packers, and that every
bit of the meat, hides and horns were
gotten out in good shape, and those
settlers have had feast.
Sincerely Yours, ALLEN WEIR.
