ITS DEFENCE

The Bulletin last week attempted
to answer THE GUARDIANS charge
that it is continually misrepresent
ing the board of supervisors. If al
readers had time to talk with the
editor of the Bulletin, they might
learn what he meant to say, but the
jumbled mass of words, as printed
means nothing to the ordinary
reader, except in the last paragraph,
when Brother Bishop gives his
hand away"
Had the board permitted him tC
select the site for the hospital, and
he received a commission, provided
he had been permitted to select the
site at Solomonville, not word OF
criticism would have been heard
from him.
All public officials are subject to
criticism, but one man has no right
to criticise an official from selfish
motives. If he does, there will be
trouble in camp so long as THE
GUARDIAN exists.

The topping, and in some in
stances, the complete cutting down
of cottonwood trees has begun.
The removal of caterpillar nests by
trimming and cutting out these
trees will rid this community of one
of the most disgusting pests ever
inflicted on people, and if differ
ent species of trees are planted
along our streets, it will not be long
before a sufficient growth will be
reached to give plenty of shade.

THE EVIL TENDENCIES OF
MODERN COLLEGES

Under the caption, THE Invisible
Crusade" a writer in the Cosmopol-
itan gives an insight into the manner
in which the college girls of the coun-
try are being led away from the
teachings of the Bible. This writer
states that Bryn Mawr. Wellesley,
Vassar and, in fact, all of the big
woman colleges of the country, teach
that the Bible is a romance, builded
upon incorrect data, contradiction,
unscientific and plagairized from
other religions. In short, the divin-
ity of the Bible is ridiculed, its science
of creation assailed, and its morals
scoffcd. The colleges are even teach
ing that man sprang from Simian,
probably a reptile that thousands of
years ago climbed up out of the sea-;
that man is his own God, and lot
of other balderdash that is contrary
to common sense.
But the effect of this is going to
be bad. Turning out seventy thou
sand college women every year to
go into the world and assail religion
and the marital ties, which the col
leges assert are the outgrowth of
Christianity, in the course of time
the effects will be disastrous to the
morals of our nation and future
generations.
1t is a certainty that such vicious
teachings can only result in filling
the country with illegitimate and
homeless children, with parents
without morals or principles, with
educated monstrosities who fear
neither God nor the devil, and with
men and women who build their
lives upon selfishness and personal
interest. This means that the men
will be thieves and hold-ups and the
women will be thugs and burglars,
and that both sexes will look upon
this life as the "end of all things,
and feel that there is no reward in
pure thought and honesty of pur-
poses.
In short, if a stop is not put to
this college work the United States
will soon be transformed into a
Sodom-that is, the educated part
of the country.
AS the matter now stands, nc
Christian man will want to send his
daughter or his son to one of these
colleges.
He might as well give him or her
to Satan as an ignoramus and feel
that the boy or girls power for vic
iousness is limited to his education.

HEROIC BIRTHDAYS

| am very much interested in a
movement toward observing more
anniversaries in the public schools.
Lincoln and General Washington
were not the only men who had
birthdays. There were even a few
women so blessed.
l find by practical experience as
the kept" story-teller of our fam
lily, that young gentlemen of about
SIX years are more absorbed in the
story of John Paul Jones and in the
achievements of Stephen Decatur
than in the finest fairy story ever
built. find that they will even
turn from the loved Jungle Book to
stories of Mosby and Sheridan and
the great cavalrymen in the Shen-
andoah.
Now. why shouldn't the birth
days Of all these men | have men,
toned be observed in the public
schools--at least by few minutes
simple explanation of the place they
held in the history of our country?
Not day in the school year but
commentaries the birth of some
man or woman who made the stars
in our flag CLEAN n little brighter
And If there are "aps in the birth
day book, 4 hope tiey will be filled
in by simple records of some of the
truly great men and women among
our first families" the American
Indians. Their birthdays, of course,
are not at hand; yet, among the
tepees lived men and women whose
splendid lives must not be forgot.

the Standard oil company at a price understood
Kern Four oil company section 1929 has
completed its seventeenth we'll and no new de-
velopment work is in progress at the present
over 90 900 barrels per month, most of which
is sold to the Associated under contract. Until

the we'll will not take more than a month to
become flowing producer No 8 gives better
indications than No. 2 which averaged about
1000 barrels day during the two months 1t
allowed to run.
The price which the Associated will pay the
Union Independents for oil delivered to the
former for the purpose of supplying its existing
contracts will be the average price received for
agency oil marketed through the Union for the
same month There will be no reduction from
the price paid by the Associated to cover stor-
age. however. the returns from oil delivered
to the Associated will be greater than the ap-
parent returns from the Union sales. In August
the storage charge came to &c barrel on all
the oil marketed. which left the producers
net return of little over 36c barrel. Had
here been any oil delivered to the Associated
during August for use in supplying its old con-
tracts. the return to agency members under the
new agreement would have been 43c.
The Oil Age weekly says .'The principal
excitement in the Midway field during the last
week was occasioned by the reported gushing

t1on 5-32-23. In our issue last week reported
this we'll as having started of at the rate Of
about 1900 barrels per day, but subsequent re-

BULLS LEADING
BIG MOVEMENT

NEW YORK, Oct. 27.-The re-
sumption of operations for the
advance in prices of stocks to-
day was credited to the same
speculative forces that were act
i've in its inception. The prestige
an imposing effect on the rank
and file of professional traders
In stocks, and they were inclined
TO follow the movement.
Their operations centered in
United States Steel. Union Pacific
plement in American Smelling.
United States Steel made new
high level for the movement at
so, but the staggering burden of
realizing sales at that price
caused a reaction, which made
the closing irregular.
The more cheerful speculative
sentiment had its incentive in the
retention of the Bank of England
discount rate at per cent.
Besides the action of the Bank
of England. the Union Pacific an
the Consolidated Gas dividend
rate were supplementary inf1u
ences on the rise in prices The
disclosure In the Union Pacific
report of the sale of its Atchi-
son holdings was regarded as
tention of noncontrol of compet-
ing lines. The corresponding in
crease in holdings of New York
Central and Chicago and North
western was a strength ening in
fluence on these stocks. Union
Pacific was affected by the con-
sideration of the broad margin
over dividend requirements of the
years earnings.
Bonds were irregular. Total
sales. par value, S2,4S7. 900.
United States bonds were un-

"A reversal of stock market
