JUST THOUGHTS

The rule is that the men earn the
money and the women pick the four
leafed clovers.
The best indication as to whether a
man honors womanhood is the man
ner in which he treats his wife.
The rabbit differs from man only in
the respect that 1t never stops to
throw bluff before running away.
1t is all right for woman to marry
money. But. unless he is an army
officer, a man is criticized for doing So.
There are SO few distinctions to-
which men may aspire that being the
father of q ten-pound boy is consid-
cred one.
"All ten years of married life have
done for me-" said Buck Kilby yes
terday, has been to increase my ca
pacity to withstand punishment"
When q man Is Jealous Of woman
It is because he loves her. When a
woman is Jealous Of a man 1t Is be-
cause her monopoly Of him is threat

PRESIDENT WILSON'S
CLEAR HEADEDNESS

NNA ILSON should have done
w this and he should have
done that, shout our
tory newspapers unwilling to
give the president credit for
anything he may do. A favor
ite theme with them is that We
should have recognized Huer-
ia.
But why Huerta? He was a
drunken, treacherous soldier
who betrayed the constitution
al president Of Mexico and had
him murdered. He was not fit
for recognition and had he
been recognized he would have
had just as much trouble as
Carranza or more.
The fact Huerta was unable
to hold his own against Car
rama is proof he was not
wanted by the Mexicans. He
let Carranza drive him from
the country, never to return. If
he was the strong man the tor
les think he was why did he
run away?
Nature has taken her course
in Mexican affairs. After three
years Of civil war Carranza
emerged as the nearest ap-
proach to a victor. With all
his stupidity he is probably the
best leader the Mexicans have
had. It was logical for the
United States to give him the
benefit Of recognition. Car
rama having failed to handle
the situation and with Ameri-
can lives 50 freely sacrificed it
s. now logical for US TO make
use Of force.
b waiting until the situation
became ripe for action the pres
ident has kept our record clear
and makes it possible for Uncle
Sam u axe up the sword with
good conscience. The tories
wanted MIN act prematurely.
They wanted him 10 strike be-
fore the iron was hot. They
would have bungled the mat
ter. The president is cool and
clear headed. He knows what
g. do and when TO do it. 1t is
fortunate for the country and
for our soldiers 10 have such a
man at the helm.

NJ things the size Of a normal
school must be governed to
large extent BY the number Of
grade pupils available.
AT Monmouth there are but
$50 pupils 10 the grade schools
and four grade teachers. ac-
c0rdiHg to the 0fncisl school
directory for 1856. At the
same time the Monmouth nor
NAL has an enrolment Of $50
students. In other words there
are more than twice as many
normal students as there are
grade pupils for them to teach.
II means that at the very best
the normal students can have
but extremely meager teaching
practice.
The situation is such as to
make another normal school in
Oregon an absolute necessity if
adequate normal training is to
be given. Il will be sane policy
to establish that school in a
town having a sufficient school
enrolment to insure an ade-
quate number Of pupils for
training purposes.
These facts are generally
recognized by school people.
1t accounts for the fact that al
most every educator in the
state, including college presi-
dents, county superintendents,
city superintendents and teach
ers are boosting for the Pen
dletOn normal.
The bill for the normal
school here is extremely meri-
torious and when the facts are
fully explained, as they will
be, the people are going to vote
for the measure as a matter of
course.

has gone to the support of
Hughes, but yesterdays action
at Chicago shows the move
ment will be by no means un-
animous. A very active minor
ity Of the national committee
was bitter against the en-
dorsement Of the republican
nominee.
As a matter of fact the pro-
gressive vote is going to be di-
vided between Wilson and
Hughes. 1t is wholly natural
the Perkins crowd should go to
Hughes because President Will
sons record has not won him
the love and friendship Of Wall
street. Those men did not
want the federal reserve act,
the income tax law and some
other meritorious pieces of leg
islation enacted at the 'presi-
dents suggestion. Therefore
they are for most anyone
against Wilson.
But the very reasons that set
the steel trust contingent of
bull moose against Wilson
should align real progressives
with him. He has done more
than any other president in
half century to put through
legislation of a constructive,
progressive nature. Col.
Roosevelt's criticism of the
Wilson administration contains
so many hilarious inconsistent
cies and absurdities it is not to
be taken seriously. The col
.onel has done some splendid
things at various times but he
has always been bum ad-
visor" as to other presidential
desirables. This fact is pretty
well recognized and because
of it the members Of the pro-
gressive party will in the main
make up their own minds as
TO who they wish to support
for president.
