THEY SHOULD TEACH AM
BITION

HT HERE is room for variety
W of opinion as to the val
ue Of different courses
taught in the schools; there
can be no disputing the fact
that the effect of the school
upon the spirit of the student
is something of immense inn
portance. A noted educator
struck at the truth of the mat
ter when he said:
''The best thing any one can
take away from school is an
aroused ambition, an awaken
ed sense of innate possibilities.
The school should have AIDED
self-discovery. Schooling is a
plan, a system of self-revela.
ton, a place where one is as
sisted to take an inventory of
ones self, of ones resources.
The athlete does not carry the
gymnasium away with him,
but the strength, the skill, the
discipline which the gymnasi-
um has helped him to acquire. !"
Give a student ambition and
he will accomplish whatever is
necessary himself. Load him
down with instruction but leave
him without a desire to sue
ceed and he will be as useless
as gun without a cartridge.

THE CITY SHOULD HELP

m F the city councilmen con.
slider the subject thor
oughly they will join with
the civic club in the purchase
for the city of the lot adjoining
the north side cemetery.
The plan suggested is reas-
enable and it is practical. 1t
means that for a very small
sum the city may secure legal
title to the whole tract of land.
1t is advisable in every way
that this tract pass to the own
ership of the city and this is a
favorable time to complete the
transaction.
1t is a good thing for a town
to have a well improved park
or playground close to the cen
ter of population and activity.
Because of our dry summer eli
mate such a park is particularly
desirable in Pendleton. 1t will
be a continuous blessing.
If through neglect by the city
that north side cemetery tract
should pass into private hands
it would become worth twenty
times as much as the city is
now asked to pay in order to
obtain title to the property.
If the city had to go into the
open market to buy two blocks
Of land for park purposes it
would have to pay an enormous
sum in order to secure desirable
property.
The purchase of the land in
Roundup park from Mr.. Mat
lock was one of the best steps
ever taken for Pendleton. The
requirement of the north side
cemetery and adjoining lots
will be on a par with that tran
sacti0n.
The city will blunder if it
passes up this opportunity.

Justice Hughes is not a candidate
for the presidency. "Not only has he
no desire to re-enter politics, but, as
member of the supreme court OF
the United States, he is not available
This public statement, authorized
by the ex-governor of New York, har-
monizes perfectly with his utterances
in 1912 on the same subject: "Te
friends who spoke Of the reports from
Chicago of the possibility of his nom
ination by the republicans as a conf
promise candidate for the presidency
he said that he was entirely out CT
politics and would not permit the use
of his name under any circumstah-
ces."
Responding few days later to a
further appeal Justice Hughes said:
Il hope that, as justice of the su-
preme court, / am rendering public
service and may continue to do so for
some years, but the supreme court
must not be dragged into politics, and

When an attempt was made to con-
vince him that his scruples as TO the
judiciary might easily be overruled
by the sovereign people, his response
was that II that view were accepted
in his case there would be nothing
to prevent similar demand upon
Chief Justice White, for example, BY
the democrats, and that then the
court would be hopelessly in politics.
He again refused, and said that his
decision must be regarded as final.

Theodore Roosevelt, bossing the ma

that kind ever was bossed, had not
forbidden it. "If YOU don't take

They took Mr.. Taft. and Mr. Taft
made Governor Hughes a justice OF
the supreme court. We shall never
know what kind of president Mr.,
Hughes would have been, but we do
know that he is a great Judge and
that by his high appreciation Of that
calling he has added new honors to
a great court.

Half a century ago that form OF
humor known as the eonundrum was
thought to be very amusing and one
of the highest forms of wit. And the
man or woman who had a store OF
new ones always ready to PROFOUND
was considered a most entertaining
person. Of course, everybody knows
what a conundrum is, for even today
it creeps up occasionally in some re-
mote district. But, the really old ones
that delighted our grandfathers are
for the most part buried in oblivion
Did you ever hear Of the one about
the watch dog? This of the brand
of 1850 and is pretty good of its kind:
why is a watch dog bigger at
night than in the morning?" Be
cause he is let out at night and taken
in in the morning"
This one was a great favorite OF
the beaux of 1860 who wanted to fiat

when it becomes a pretty wagon.
