ELK HERD SECURED
BY GAME WARDEN

Through the efforts of State Game
Warden William L. Finley. on his re.
cent visit at Washington. d. G.. the
government has been persuaded 10
donate fifteen elk to the State of Ore
gon. These animals will be taken
from the forest reserves of Wyoming.
Grated and transported to Oregon as
soon as the people of this state provide
an adequate pasture for them. They
will become the sole property of Ore
gon and serve to perpetuate a race of
noble animals that is rapidly becoming
extinct.
In the northwestern part of the state
there is a 250O acre pasture that has
been set aside by the national govern
ment for testing the utility of a coyote
proof fence. 1t is said to have proven
effective for that purpose and the for
estry service, according to Warden
Finley, is willing to give this big park
to the state as an elk reserve. The
matter Of location, however, has not
been settled, as this is a question that
will be left largely to the state at
large. as it is distinctly matter of
public interest.
The Wyoming elk are magnificent
specimens and it is believed that thev
will thrive in this state. Fortunately.
the Biological Survey of the Depart.
ment OF Agriculture will meet part of
the expenses of Grating and transport
ing the antlered herd from Wyoming
to this state. The food for the winter
will have to be provided by people of
Oregon. 1t is expected they will be
moved by February and some definite
action as to location must be taken
before that time.
Several other states have tried to
secure these elk in the past, and Ore
gon ought to feel proud at having been
successful in interesting the govern
ment in its decision to honor Oregon
in this way. Our own elk will soon be
extinct. With starter of Is animals.
there ought soon to be quite respect
able herd. 1t is absolutely necessary
that public sentiment be aroused in
this behalf, as it is matter that can
be brought about by method. 1t is
believed that the people will stand
behind Warden Finley in this effort.
as he has given his word that Oregon
Will find place to house these animals
II the Government would give them.

All of the great and successful men oi

the foundation stones of character and
success, if not the main one; and they
all are emphatic about the Importance
OF teaching saving at home. Read what
President Mckinley and Gladstone say
PRESIDENT MCKINLEY SAYS:
THE little saving bank in the home
Is a greater guarantee for the success of
the children OF the family almost than
all the advice of the world "
GLADSTONE SAYS;
Parents everywhere should teach
their children to save money. Thrift is
the greatest anchor of our character and
of nation citizenship. 1t is virtue
that more than any other, in my belief,
makes and insures good and capable
men and women. 1t should be cultivat-
ed IN the home as an essential part OF a
child education, with even more care
than that employed in teaching to read
and write, as it will really have more
important bearing upon the child's
future than any other part of its train
ing"

Portland Qnintette Victorious.

The Jefferson High School basketball
team won a sweeping victory here last
Friday night over the Hood River
school. The game, which was played
at the old ArmorY building and which
drew a big crowd of spectators, result
ed in a score of % to II in favor of the
Portland lads. The Hood River boys
assert that their failure to make a
better showing is due to lack of coach
ing. They play a good individual game
but lack systematic work. The Jeffer-
son squad, which was composed of a
husky lot of youths, was Dake, Muir
ply, Vospcr, West, Anderson, Earl,
Ashworth and Catterin The Hood
River line was Morse, center; E,
Franz and Shay, forwards; and Shep-
pard and Lewis, guards.
The local team will play number
of Portland school teams during the
months of February. Contests are
planned with Lincoln and Portland
Academy and another with Jefferson.
The high school quintet licked the
Jefferson boys by large score last
season.

A New York Mob.

The demonstration during the
week at the Maxine Elliott theater
showed that New York. too, has it's
mobs and mob spirits and that city
mobs are not much more deeorous
than mobs In small college towns.
Provincialism has often been urged
against New York and the lombard
ing Of actors on the stage with eggs,
vegetables and other tokens OF en-
dearment is circumstantial evidence
tending to support the charge. The
stage production may have merited
violent form of disapproval, but
the mob surely cannot escape on that
defense. Suppose New York mobbed
every undeserving specimen that got
before ito footlights. it would have
to keep a standing mob, we imagine.
THE Playboy OF the Western
World" however, Jared but little
better in New York than did
Mrs. Pankhurst, the British suf-
fragette, who was hooted and
jeered off the streets when she
attempted to speak there. Speaking
is nothing more than she did in many
other American cities, but up to date
we have heard OF her being silenced
nowhere but in the metropolis. Mrs.
Pankhurst spoke throughout the
country to many assemblages OF
people who did not wholly agree with
all she said and yet, at least in the
west, she was received with unvary-
ing courtesy and consideration. New
York will continue to denounce the
suffragetto mobs in London, no
doubt, but IL ought also to be more
polite at home.

Friendshin.

The beauties of true friendship
have been sung in song and story
since the beginning OF the world.
Life without friends would be life
scarcely worth living. and, try as
We may, nothing can be- found to
take the place OF friends.
The life OF the hermit, no matter
to what ideal It may be consecrated,
is repugnant because 1t is shorn Of
all ties of friendship.
The greatest sacrifice which the
pioneer has TO make in tanning the
wilderness is the foregoing of friends,
and the hardest part devolving ON
the emigrant setting out for a new
home In a strange country is to leave
behind the friends of other days, and
take the hazard OF making new
friends. Friends are even more need
full, and less easily dispensed with,
than relateives, for relatives are not
always friends. and the best friends
are rarely relatives.
Friendship is predicated on mutual
respect and esteem, on unselfIsh re-
gard. or mutual heipfulness. The
deliberate abandonment, or the will
tul shattering OF friendships, is the
most reckless extravaganza ever in
dulged; 1t is the destruction OF per-
sonal capital slowly accumulated, and
built up only at great expense OF time
and effort.
Too often. however. people appre-
ciate friends only after they no
longer have them. II is easier to
hold friend than It is to regain one.
A steadily widening circle of friends
is the best proof OF a mans appreci-
alton OF what friendship means.
