Bribery
HAZEL DEVOTE
Age IL Yeara

l think that bribery Is a very i'm
pOrtant topic for American citizens to
discuss. 1t Is one OF the many evils OF
this country. There isn't a state which
hasn't a great many dishonest officials
in every part of It. We Americans
think we have q great deal to brag
about, but there Is one thing that we
can not brag Of, and that is being, as
a whole, an honest people. You men
of America, haven't you any more pride
in yourselves and loyalty for your
country than to take up position In
the government with the intention Of
being dishonest toward It?
Almost every day you read In the
papers of bribery going on In some
part of the country. And even when
the guilty are caught and brought be-
fore a Jury they are acquitted. Why?
bribed to declare this guilty man inno-
cent. Yes, the jurors have Co pass
Judgment on a man accused Of bribery
when they themselves are guilty Of
the same crime The jurors themselves
know the accused in not innocent, but
they do it just for the sake of few
dollars.
Americans, Isn't your honor for your
country and for what is right and fair
worth more than that? 1t is right to
have these guilty ones punished. Why
not let your honor stand In the way of
their being acquitted?
Now, what is left to brag about when
honor is gone? Not much to speak Of
I hope that some day the United
States will find way to stop bribery
altogether or to have the guilty get
their full punishment.

The Upbuilding of San Francisco
GEORGINA SCHLUETER,
Age II Years

San Francisco has. as we all know,
been building up very rapidly OF late.
The public buildings have been spring
ing up everywhere and so make our
city beautiful and bright. No doubt
not many or the people of this city
have paid much attention to the build
ings OF San Francisco at the present
time, but they will open their eyes
with wonder when the worlds fair is
held here. and tis then that they will
notice the splendid. tall buildings and
mansions that make out city beautiful
1 have heard people say that New
York is by far much more enterpris-
ing city than San Francisco. II they
will for one moment stop to consider
how old New York is and how young
San Francisco Is. they will quickly
change their minds and say that by the
time San Francisco is as old as New
York she will be by far a much larger
and more lovely city than New York is
today. l hope that when the Panama
canal Is finished, and crowds OF people
enter the Golden gate, that they Will.
too, say as l am saying, that San
Francisco is justly considered and
called mistress and metropolis OF the
whole Pacific coast.

The Tunnel Project
HAROLD ROBERTS, AGE 1s

I think all the people In the city
of San Francisco are interested in the
tunnel project. / think that when the
people build the Twin Peaks tunnel it
will open up the vast area on the other
side Of 1t. 1t would also be a short
cut for trains coming from the south.
Tunnels should also be built through
all the hills in the downtown district,
as 1t would save labor and time go
ing over them. / think that they
should tunnel under Market street
also, as people and teams would have
more right of way. The tunnel should
be used for the cars only that run
on Market street. The people and
teams could keep to the street.

No Harm in Children Reading
Newspapers
ROSA MARKUs

Countless numbers of parents are
xvery much opposed to their children
reading a newspaper until they have
reached the age Of 15 or 16 They
base their disapproval on the fact that
the different cases Of crime and muir
der described in the daily sheets tend
to harden and ruin chiId's character
This Is very narrow way to look
at the subject. do not see 1t in that
light at all. The newspaper has
grown just as necessary to me as has
my food and drink 1t is the history
or daily life. To the broader and more
intellectual mind the newspaper does
not appear calendar of murder and
crime. but as a beautiful wonderful
object that brings to him OF the north
the doings Of the sunny south. and to
him or the west the interesting news
OF the far east. To the many lonely
ones 1t acts as fond friend and com
panion and to the reckless and extraya-
CANT reminder which makes them
stop In the midst of their frivolity to
think OF the many, many who dwell in
poverty and to tell them Of the great
happiness the money which they are
SO roolishly spending would bring
these unfortunates
Therefore as soon as a child can nm
derstand the various articles I'm a
newspaper he should be allowed to
read them. If the child has been
brought up by intelligent parents IL
from very infancy he has been taught
to walk in life's right way, a news
paper, even though 1t be full of sto-
ries dealing with crime and grafters.
will have no bad effect upon him. It
Will on the other hand arouse all the
good within him. and when he grows
to manhood he will fight against and
try to abolish such evils.
But III a child is really bad or i'll
tempered, keeping him from reading a
newspaper VIII not make him any bet
ter. On the other hand If he is per-
mitted to have one IL may, as he reads
or the good. noble things being done by
our American youths every day. be an
inspiration to him He may strive to
be like them and thus reform.
You will notice that the children who
read the newspapers and so keep i'm
touch with the world are always the
brightest In school When called upon
to recite they always speak earnestly
and intelligently. But the children who
are barred from doing so are usually
dull and without ambition. Therefore,
mothers. for your chiidrens sake, IL
for no other and for the benefit of our
country, which requires bright, active
citizens. do not wait until they are 16
years OF age. when II is too late, but
as soon as they can think and under
stand clearly, give them a good whole
some newspaper.
l think OF Whittier's beautiful lines
in ''Snowbound" as the village news
paper was brought to his door
We felt the stir OF hall and street,
The pulse of life that round us beat;
The chill embargo of the snow
Was melted in the genial glow
Wide swung again our ice-loeked door.
And all the world was ours once more

Room in Texas for the World

The state of Texas alone could give

duction of food supplies.-Henry Clews.

the Fairgrounds you can. Give us

A POLLUTED STREAM.

Valley City Times-Record: The
low water in the Scheyenne river dem
onstrates the filthy condition of that
stream where it flows through the res
idence portion of Valley City. The
sewerage settles in the bottom of the
sluggish current and together with
thousands of fish, either killed by the
poisonous sewerage or chemicals
from the mill above, makes a most
sickening stencil. Some work was
done by the city officials just below
the dam-the river needs cleaning,
down to the rapids. The matter is
one of the gravest importance and
should receive the immediate atten-
ton of the city council. Other mat
tiers can wait, but the health of the
city is endangered by this polluted
stream and it's publication should be
Of the first importance.

A GOOD way TO USE
HY0MEI

Besides breathing through the in.
haler a few times a day, many catar.
rah sufferers write that they find in
haling Hyomei from a bowl Of steam:
ing water each night before retiring
a great aid in curing stubborn cases.
Try it; it's very simple; gives
quick relief and makes you breathe
easier.
Fill bowl half full of boiling wat
err; pour into the water half teas
spoonful of Hyomei, cover head and
bowl with towel and breathe through
nose and mouth the medicated anti
septic and healing vapor that arises.
This method relieves that stuff
ness at once and makes your head
feel clear.
You can get bottle Of Hyomei at
druggists everywhere or at Lenhart
Drug Co., for only so cents. Ask for
extra bottle Hyomei 1nhalent.
But bear in mind if you want a
Hyomei inhaler you must buy a CON-
plete outfit which only costs $1.O0.
But as stated before; if you already
own an inhaler bottle of Hyomie
costs but SO cents.
Hyomei is guaranteed by druggists
everywhere and by Lenhart Drug Co.,
to cure catarrh, sore throat, coughs,
colds, rose fever, asthma and Group,
or money back. Try it on that gen.
erous basis.

GoPHERs ARE DESTRUCTIVE

Courtenay Gazette: Farmers state
that gophers are hard at work de.
stroying grain. The continued dry
weather has caused these little pests
TO seek moisture and the young, ten
der shoots afford the best means to
satisfy their craving for plants which
contain the largest amount of plant
juice. Thousands of acres are yearly
destroyed by their sharp teeth and
their depredations entail a loss to
the farmers No time should be lost
