COME OUT OF IT.

What is the matter with Oregon?
Are the people of this state half
starved and half naked? Are they
unable to make a livelihood? Has
the state no undeveloped resources
and no hopes for the future?
One would think so, judging from
the manner in which the legislature is
trying to treat the educational insti-
tutions of the state.
At Salem they are considering the
proposition of abolishing the normal
schools. On the ground of economy
it is desired to do away with the pres
ent schools. AS a substitute it is
proposed to either establish a one
room normal school on some vacant
lot in Portland or else to have nor
NAL instruction given after hours at
the state university.
Now comes the news that the spe-
cial legislative committee intends to
slash the already inadequate appro-
priation for the agricultural college
New buildings that are absolutely ne
cessary for accommodating students
now in school are to be denied and
the progress of the school is to be
firmly blocked.
Why is this course being taken? Dc
the legislators want to abolish edu-
cation in this state? Do they want to
say to the world that oregon is un-
able to provide for the education OF
its young people; that the people Of
the state care nothing about either
material or intellectual advancement
Do they want to go back to the day
when people lived on the fish they
could catch or the game they could
kill and travelled the Willamette
river in canoes?
These are plain words, but it II
time for them. The attitude Of some
legislators is enough to disgust and
dishearten those who are working fol
the states advancement. If the pro-
gram for stunting the schools is car
ried out the legislature will do much
to dwarf the progress Of the state. Il
will be a blow on the head for the de-
velopment move now under way.
Right now scores Of eastern Ore
gon students are going to Washington
colleges simply because this state has
bludgeoned and starved its schools
until they are in disrepute. Next sum-
mer when people are out from tht
east TO see the Seattle fair Washing
tonians will tell them their state Is
forced 10 educate the young people
Of Oregon because this state is dom

DON'T BLOCK 1T.

If reports are true certain parties
have been at work trying to block the
construction of the Pendleton federal
building in hopes of having the loca-
ton of the building changed. For
selfish reasons these people want the
building located three or four blocks
away from the business portion of the
town.
Such work as this should be frown-
ed upon. The government selected a
site that seemed most favorable. The
location chosen is close to the heart
of the city. 1t meets with general ap-
proval. The objection is raised be-
cause the site selected is close to the
Chinese quarters. But those quarters
can be moved very quickly and they
will be moved. If the building were
located far out from Main street the
distance could never be overcome.
Why not let the governments selec-
ton stand and thereby hasten the
construction of the federal building?

PARK EXPERT
GIvESF|NE TALK
e B. De Croft Appears Be
fore Play Grounds Asso-
citation of Gary.

Last night e. B. DeGroot, director
of the south parks in Chicago appeared
before the members Of the Gary Play
grounds association last night to tell
them of his knowledge concerning
Fairgrounds. what they are for. what
they accomplish and how they may be
developed.
A fair-s1zed crowd was in attendance
considering the bitterness of the cold.
Most OF them that did attend. however.
We're greatly interested in the work
in which Mr.. DeGroot is considered
full considerations.
Most of Mr.. DeGroot's lecture con-
sisted of telling Of the Fairgrounds of
Chicago In this the people of Gary
were a little disappointed for the Chi
cago system was on too comprehensive
a scale to be used for the city of Gary.
What the Gary people wanted was a
what will we do first, and what wo
do next lecture.
Professor DeGroot brought out many
helpful points, however. and enter
tanned the people with a recital of the
beauties and advantages of the park
systems Of Chicago He showed how
the expenditure Of public monies had
been diverted from the establishment
OF parks TO Fairgrounds, or from what
he termed the passive recreation to the
active. He stated that the older peo-
pie who were tired and desired to rest
and be entered desired the passive rec
reation. but the children demanded the
active sort.
He also showed graphically how the
children Of the Loorer class are given
what he called unconscious education
where they learn cleaner habits. higher
motives and improve their physical and
mental being at the same time. This
keeps them from idle moments which
are destructive to their mental and
physical welfare.

FOOTL|GHT
ROMANCE
REVEALED

A romance of the footlights was re-
vealed yesterday In Gary In the sud
den marriage OF one of the chorus
girls of the Princess theater, whose at
tractive parsonage and gracefulness in
the glare of the calcium first brought
her to the attention of the successful
sutton. n
The chorus girl is Mass Aggie Rum
mel. and her husband is Mr. Jack Lang
ford. manager of the restaurant in the
Kirk yards. The marriage occurred
in Chicago, and the party was ac-
companied by just few friends and
relatives of the principles.
Langford casually dropped into the
theater one night and liked the looks
Of this girl particularly. From that
time he was a constant visitor at the
playhouse, attending nearly every per-
formance until he finally made her ac-
quatntance and the marriage followed
in a few days.
The couple will reside in Gary in the
future, they having taken up their
residence in the Gary hotel for the
present.
