RACE SUICIDE THINS
THE SUNDAY SCHOOLS

New York-Declaring himself to
be believer with Theodore Roose-
welt that race suicide" is to be re-
gretted. Governor Foot of New Jer-
sey addressed the fifty-first annual
convention of the New Jersey Sunday
School association, in East Orange.
He ventured the guess that he reason
why the Sunday schools of today are
not as large as they used to be, is not
so much because the children of the
church people do not attend, as that
the church people have not the chill
dren in as large numbers as formerly.
II am not sure" said the governor,
whether it is that we do not send
the children to Sunday school or that
We do not have the children in our
homes to send. 1 do think, though,
that the latter is true of the people
who consider themselves the best in
the community in our time, We find
the children today in what we see
fit to call the slums.
There never was a time when
there was more need for the urging
upon the conscience of the people of
New Jersey and every other state of
attendance upon church and the re-
turn to the old fashioned doctrines of
, the Bible. Something, either golf or
automobiles, perhaps, makes us neg
lect the influences of the church on
Sunday.
"The staff of the government is the
Bible. You strike from it the Bible
and its influences and there are no
anchors which you can throw out to
save the government"

RED CROSS STAMPS
ARE SELLING FAST

The red cross stamp campaign is in
full swing in Pendleton and the bull
lets in the battle against the white
plague are flying fast, though it is
only just becoming generally known
that the stamps can be had here.
The stamps are on sale at all the drug
stores and each one of these places
reports that the demand is on the in
crease.
The members of the two women's
clubs who secured the stamps for this
city are gratified at the success of the
sales thus far and feel sure that the
sales will increase as the people real
ize the great amount of good which
they can do at such small expense to
themselves. Aside from the assist
ance which the purchase of the
stamps means to the sufferers they
are also very desirable to place on

The National Red Cross society
printed for sale this year $4,000
stamps OF these the Visiting Nurses
association took for sale in Oregon
100000. Their success in selling all
the stamps will put them leader not
only in number of sales, but in sheer
nerve of undertaking. This is a
feather for their cap which the asso-
citation particularly desires to win, not
only for the benefit of Portland and
Oregon, but for the country at large.

HOW THEY TREAT BOOT
LEGGERS IN EUGENE

The five men convicted of selling
liquor contrary to the provisions OF
the local option law appeared before
Justice Bryson at 10 o'clock Satur-
dav morning and were each given the
same sentence, towt: A Jail sem
tence of 80 days and fine of 800
and to pay the costs of the court.
None of them have the wherewltn
to pay their fine so it practically
amounts to a Jail sentence of 12O days
in the county Jail, as they cannot be
compelled to lay out the costs of the
trial. ST Jones says his case viii be
appealed, but this will appear later

PENDLETON HIGH
WINS ANOTHER GAME
DEFEATS WESTON SCHOOL
BY DECISIVE SCORE
Handicapped by Intercollegiate Rules,
Boys Retaliate by Piling up Score
of so Against Home Teams 12-
Next Game VIII be With Columbia
College of Milton.

By the decisive score of 80 to 12 the
Pendleton high school basketball five
took the Weston high into camp on
the latter's floor last Saturday even
ing. The game is said to have been
fast and hard from start to finish, but
the victors completely surpassed their
rivals in their ability to pass the ball.
Victory was all the more sweet by
reason of the fact that the Pendleton
boys were compelled to play an alto
gether different game from the one
to which they are accustomed. The
intercollegiate rules were sprung on
them when they arrived at Weston and
they were compelled to play ac-
cording to them instead of in accord
ance with the rules laid down in Spal-
ding's official guide.
The heavier guards and centre OF
the Pendleton team made it impossible
for the Weston boys to work to ad-
vantage while the local forwards were
so speedy and light that they evaded
their guards with comparative ease.
OF the 80 points, IS were made by
McDill, eight by RAIDER and four by
Sturdivant.
The next game played will be
against the Columbia College team of
Milton. This team is recognized as
one of the strongest in the county
and a hard game is expected. Though
the P. H. S. has no coach, the ability
of Captain McDill to handle his men
will bring them out on top if such Il.
possible.
same as in the Weston game with
Sturdivant and RAIDER, forwards; Nc
Dill center; Devine and C. Jordan,
guards.
