Government Educator
Praises Newspapers

Washington, Oct. 23.-"Tae smaller
newspapers of the country have to their
credit one of. the really great achieve.
ments of the last few years-I mean
the spread of compulsory education, -
declared w. Carson Ryan, Jr., editor of
the United States Bureau of Education,
In an interview with the United Press.
"Two years ago there were six
states without compulsory education
laws; today there are but two. The
change is largely due to the smaller
newspapers.
Here, in the Bureau of Education.
we have learned from years of exper.
fence to depend upon the paper of this
type.
:" 1t is curious thing that much of
the educational progress of today is be-
ing made in the smaller towns. The
big city has the system, the organ.
ization, the discipline; but the smaller
city is apt to have the independence
and spirit that makes for progress.
The smaller newspaper is notable
for its boosting of progressive ideas.
1t is apt to be in closer touch with its
constituency. -

ILLUSTRATING ADDRESS
ON FRANCE

Seats were at premium in the
Congregational church last Sunday
evening when James Eivin, pastor of
the church, gave an Illustrated address
on Germany.
On Sunday evening the same speak
er will deliver an Illustrated address
on France and will show that France
believes she is fighting not only for
her own life but for tle principles of
liberty and republicanism. France be-
lieyes that the war of 1901 was an
utterly unjustifiable attack upon a
peaceful and unprepared neighbor. The
French soldier fights that his children
may have the right to think and speak
and feel in French that there may still
be in the world a French race which
the world needs.
France believes that she stands for
liberty first and foremost among the
nations of The world. Every one knows
that France has contributed very large
ly to the liberties of the world and
especially to the liberties of America.
Thos. jefferson, the writer of the
/" Declaration of Independence, de-
rived his ideas very largely from the
philosOpaic thought of France of the
18th century. France has been called
the fatherlend of Jefferson s thinking
and the Declaration of independence
was French born.
Carlyle said that the French revolu-
tion came, truth clad in hell fire But
that revolution stood for terrible
truths. 1t was the resort of suffer.
ing people against arlstoeracy and mis-.
rule. Ii made France love liberty and
dare for liberty as few other nations
nave done. Liberty, Equality, Fratern-
ity was the cry of the soul of France.
Not only has France contributed
largely to the cause of liberty through.
out the world, she has also contributed
largely TO the intellectual and spirit.
ual life of the world and has also been
called the mother of radical thought.
France then in this war stands for
the defense Of the worship and prac-
tice of liberty, born of great past,
full of glory, of achievement Of con
tribution to the world love, the
world S gaining of liberty.
The address will be illustrated byI
fifty stereoptican slides and will cover
such points as the French contribution
to liberty. The inheritance from the
revolution. The weak point in the
development of France. Everybody ia-
vited and everybody welcome.

most members from other oranges could
not stay for the evening meeting.

EAT A SQUARE MEAL AND
NOT FEAR INDIGESTION

X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X
There are hundreds of people in
Salem who were not the least bit II.
prised when they read in the Jou nal
that Daniel j. Fry is selling Mi-o-na
on guarantee to refund the money in

able dyspepsia remedy will relieve the
worst case of indigestion, headache,
dizziness, or the general played-out con-
dition that afflicts every one suffering
with stomach trouble. Mi-o.na does not
simply relieve, it aims to cure.
Daniel j. Fry can tell you of many
well known people in this city who this
remedy has restored to health, often
after they have tried many other
methods of treatment with little or no
benefit. No other dyspepsia remedy has
made so large a percentage Of cures as
Mi'o'na. 1t is so large that Daniel j..
Fry stands ready to refund the price
to any customer whom it does not help.
The best kind of advertising is the
praise Of pleased customer, and there
are hundreds in Salem today praising
Mi-o'na because it does what it is ad-
vertised to do. A few months ago they
could eat nothing without wondering
what the result would be. Since using
Mi-o-na, they eat what they want and
when they want with no fear of suffer.
ing. This medicine comes in the form
OF a small tablet and is very pleasant to
take 1t speedily and permanently re-
heves almost all forms of stomach
trouble and is the only one sold under
positive guarantee without any re-
strieuon, to refund the money If il
does not relieve. This is a good time
to get well and you ought to take ad.
vantage OF Daniel j. Fry's offer.
