"The Rise of Susan"

Man, since his creation has been
victim Of circumstance. Few there
are who do not feel themselves pc.
culiarly featured in life's great
drama-"The Evolution of Things. y
From the earliest days to the
present time the INSTALLATION of al
most any human experience would
give us thrill and establish for US
a new moral.
- The code of life is but conden-
sation of wisdom CLEANED from ex-
perienced and established in laws to
guard frail humanity.
Clara Kimball Young in "The Rise
Of Susan" is not only beautiful in
every respect, but displays the most
exquisite up-to- the-minute gowns yet
seen on the screen. The rich, mod
ern house settings and the interest
ing turn of this pretty romance is
bound to please everyone. 1t is a
story without a blush-clean, whole
some and entertaining.

THE TIME HAS COME
FOR SERVICE
By Albert Bushnell Hart
of the Xigileatc.:

For one hundred and forty-one
years the United States Of America
has been serving the people Of this
nation. The Union has enlarged the
boundaries, protected the neo5le
given opportunity TO- wealth and
prosperity without parallel powers
of the earth. We have accepted
these blessings g though tho fell
from heaven, witho b. effort OF chr
part. The time has Row come g.
counter service from me people to
their government.
All the old forms Of obligation
will continue. The property owno~
must pay taxes on 2 large scale.
Those who take part in the govern
E1ent must show greater vigor and
capacity Livery public offic i
must feel new sense CT respons.-
oility. The people and government
of the United States must wake up,
as the English, the French and the
Russians have walked up. In addi-
ton, the great task is thrown upon
the American people OF defending
their lives, their property and their
free government. Taxes and admin
lstration are only implements to be
used in this supreme necessity Of
military defense.
The first thing to be done is to
recognize the need of a national
army, adequate for the task before
US. Never in our history have we
faced such an external danger. The
only think that will save US from
disaster is the most skillful use of
the human material, of which we
have such an abundance. The OBJ
vious, safe and essential method is
that system of organization on a
great scale, which is commonly call
ed Universal Military Training.
The first key word in this phrase
is Training" which means that in
the conditions of modern warfare no
army can succeed simply by the
patriotism and bravery of
its soldiers! They must be prepar-
ed for their work. We might as
well put gang of lumber jacks in
the engine room Of a steamer, or the
stokers Of steamer into an aero
plane factory, as to make war on
great scale, using green men who
are acquainted only with the arts of
peace. Whatever the time necessary
for training an army, whether six
months or nine months or year, we
,an neither help our allies nor de-
Fend ourselves, until we have
trained force.
That does not mean simply infant
eymen who can shoot and carry
'avalrymen who can ride and artil-
erlsts who can find a range; it
means also an army with a commits
'ariat which can feed million men
lnfailingly every day for a year, |
md six months hence begin on an

other million; 1t means the prepare
ton of men for trench service, ae-
ii-riai service, submarine service,
transportation service. hospital ser
vice; 1T means the development. of
officers who can command, thou
sands Of whom are skilled in these
special branches of warfare; it
means the accumulation OF immense
volumes of equipment, provisions,
arms, big guns, rockets, mine trail
ing must come before any effective
military service; and to accomplish
its ends, military training must be
"Universal'. That does not mean
that every aeie-bodied man must be-
come soldier, but that great class
$ of men-presunably called out
~ ages, as, for instance, every man
t-c-a 20 70 q years OF age through
cuU the eountry-si1ali' submit to
2hy1icl,l examination; and those of
~ cla@s who have the physical
cup shall at once begin the nee
-@~cy training. Then when the
Jvernment has sufficient officers
and equipment another batch can be
called, and then another, up to the
needs of the land.
In no other way can the splendid
human forces OF the country be
made aavilable for defense or Of
Tense.

EXTENSION DIRECTOR :
EXPERIENCED FARMER
Mr.. Center Was Born, Reared and
SchoOled on Farm, and Knows
Farm Conditions.

Oregon Agricultural College, Cor
wallis, Aug. 800. D. Center, the
new extension director at the Oregon
Agricultural College, arrived at Cor
wallis last Saturday and has already
taken up the work of getting some of
the best farming and homemaking
information available at the College
before the people of Oregon.
Mr. Center has training and exper-
ience in farming. He was chore boy
and field hand on his fathers farm
in Illinois, making full hand at the
age of a. He got his schooling in
off labor seasons, first in the district
school and later in union high
school five miles from his home, while
still farming. When he was married
he began life on the farm, which he
left to study agriculture in the Him
ois University.
Even here, he farmed. He was
made manager of the experiment
station farm for the last two wears
of his course, and was kept on the
job until he resigned in 1910 to be-

WILL SUPPLY AMBU.
LANCES FOR Sd ORE.

An appeal which should strike re-
sponsive chord in the hearts of every
loyal son and daughter of Oregon, is
being made by the Oregon Army and
Navy Auxiliary, which is now seeking
to secure sufficient funds for the pur-
chase of one-and perhaps two or
three-Army ambulances for the 3rd
Oregon Regiment, which is soon to
see service on the battlefields of
France.
1t is big undertaking, this work
If securing funds by popular subscrip-
ton, but in such worthy cause the
women sponsoring the movement be-
ieve that the people of Oregon will
respond quickly and with patriotic
enthusiasm which will insure success.
There are some, perhaps, who can
give but dime, but such contribu-
ton will be welcome. 1t may be that
dime given today will be the means
of saving the life of one of Oregon's
sons when this ambulance is pressed
into service on the firing line of mo
Mans Land"
1T is a splendid movement and
one which should receive the support
of the people throughout the state"
declared Governor Withycombe. 1T
is a cause in which every man, wom-
an and child can do his or her bit
for their sons, their brothers and
their loved ones"
Thus far approximately $2400 has
been raised, of which $500 has al
ready been applied on the first am
bulance which has been ordered and
is now being shipped to Oregon. Ar
rangements have been made for the
acceptance of this and other ambu-
lances by the War Department in be-
half of the 3rd Oregon Regiment.
This type of ambulance costs $3075,
and is a regulation Army machine,
fully equipped for immediate service
at the front.
All Oregon residents who desire to
contribute to this worthy cause in be-
half of the Oregon boys, are urgently
requested to mail their contributions
at once to Mrs. r. Z. Oliver, treasur
er 507 Corbett building. Portland.
Men and women in this city who are
members of this campaign committee
are likewise requested to redouble
their efforts at once and forward all
subscriptions to Mrs. Oliver at the
earliest possible moment.
The 3rd Oregon is soon to leave
for Southern cantonment camp,
from which it will sail for France
within two or three months, This
makes it absolutely necessary for the
people of Oregon to complete their
contributions for the ambulance fund

Farmers Institute. When he left this
position he went to North Dakota as
district supervisor of the N. D. Bet
ter Farming Association. He next
became farm demonstration of Grand
Forks county, and on leaving took up
farm extension work as director of
the Idaho University Extension Ser
vice. He left that work to take up
like work in Oregon, but not until
after he had transformed it from
chaos into one of the most scientif-
ic extension systems in the entire
United States.
He not only knows farming from
these various angles. but he knows
farmers and being one himself is able
to enter into fellowship with them.

Fire Had a Good Start.

What might have developed into a
full sized fire had it not been found
and extinguished when it was, was
the small blaze started in the big
stable of Willis Stewart at the rear
of The Gazette-Times Office by some
small boys one day this week. The
boys had come into possession of
some matches and were determined
to make use of them, whether good
or bad. The fire was discovered by
Spencer Crawford and put out before
it had a chance to get going good.
The little boys were admonished by
the city marshal for their act and
they promised not to do such foolish
things again.
