machinery be made and used; that all
able-bodied men be compelled by law
to do full days work.
These are all recommendation tor
the improvement of measures and
agencies used last year, except the last.
President Wilson has promised that
soldiers in cantonments will be given
leave of absence to go home and help
harvest the crops.
Secretary Houston suggestion that
the lazy man and the man of leisure
are potential asse is in this situation is
a new and interesting one. He points
out that this is a matter for state and
municipal rather than Federal action.
In Maryland a law has already been
passed providing that every abfe-bodied
man must do at least six hours work
per day. Such laws should certainly
apply also to able-bodied women. If
they We're really passed and enforced
In all of the states, they would reach
the two extremes Of the social scale
the idle rich and idle poor. The idle
rich would be forced into some sort OF
more or less conEenial and possibly
useful form of activity. The idle Door
wouldabe the net gain to farm labor.
In effect it would be a CONSUMPTION of
elderly hobos.
One serious difficulty,in this country
is that tAmerlcan women have never
learned to do farm work. Women have
come forward in a great variety of
other industries; their response to the
call Of war has in general been ad-
mrable-a and sufficiently admired. But
We have been unable to learn Of any
considerable number Of women Fosg
into farming. The Woman's Com
mittee Of the Council Of National De-
Tense is known to be aware Of this
need for women On farms. and to be
working on the problem. Il NAV be
that it win offer solution. although il
will be difficult to train women in time
to be Of use this \. ar.
This is emphasized by the experience
OF Great Britain, where women have
gone a long way toward saviDe the
farming situation. Even before the
war, there had been some discussion of
the adyisability Of training women for
farm work, and women farmers and
farm laborers were not unknown
When the war broke out, after the first
rush Of munition-making, England found
that its production Of foodstuffs was
failing for lack Of labor. Then the
question Of women as farm workers
was taken up in earnest. The govern
ment instituted system Of training
them by periods of apprenticeship to
farmers. Women are now doing an
important share Of the agriculture
work in England. In France and
Germany they have done an important
share Of many generations. It's safe
to say that neither of these countries
couli have gotten along without the
women to take the place Of men on the
farms. Thus it Is seen that women
have saved the situation in every

Professor W. ]. Spillman, Y
Cornell University, who organized
farm labor work of the Department
Agriculture last year, prophesled tina
at least thirty thousand women would
have to take the place of men in the
fields this coming summer. He also
prophesied that they would do it and
were fully able to do It. He asserted
that farm labor with modern machinery
is not too heavy drudgery for wome'
that it is more healthful than much
the industrial work into which the wal>
has called them.
Only recently the farmers of tide
water Maryland served notice on the
government that unless the drain Of
labor from the farms to the factories is
stopped, food production must decline.
The government replied, in effect, that
it must have mUnition workers: that
the farmers would have to do the best
they could
That situation IS one that will surely
spread, will occur in many parts of the
country as the crops begin to ripen.
Improving agencies for gathering men
and distributing them is all right as far
as it goes; but there are very few men
to gather and distribute. Urging further
cooperation between farmers, and the
use of more machinery are good exped-
tents but they obviously do rot con-
stitute p solution. The same may be
said Of CONSUMPTION for the lazy.
Everything seems to point to woman

of the fusilleres, fighting sixteen days
without a rest. Nine companies went
out at the time with 1870 men in each
company. At the end of the sixteen
days but 120 of the entire number
answered roll call. Not an officer of
any description survived, only the ad-
iutant and a doctor returning among
them. 1t was this charge which was
mentioned in the address of Private

out of line and were then reinforced
and returned to the battle. For five

Pendeton Is Generous in Support of Public School System
By Fred p Austin, Superintendent


III keeping wItk her traditional
apirft, pendIetan has not hetsn satis-
fled with halfway measures with re
npepA to her public schools. Her citi-
zerax have been generous in 1he pro-
vision of accommodations and equip
mend adequate to the educational
needs of her children.
Three modern elementary school
buildings and one commodious high
school building have been erected
wiflt a view to afford every child Of
school age an opportunity to acquire
nm aducation under wholesome. COM
foraabIe, and sanitary conditions. APP
pafatus and equipment of the most
modern sorts have been furnished to
an extent seldom surpassed in even
much larger school systems.
The people. and those chosen to
reITcscnt them, in the direction of
educational affairs, have evidently
had the conception that the school Is
n great social institution on which de
petfds the future welfare of tne COM
mohweaith. They have made it inn
possible for any child to grew up in
this community without receiving
through the elementary school at least
the minimum requirements OF demo-
cratic citizenship, and they have rec
ognized varying differences and linn
itatfsns of those of high school age
hv providing courses of instruction
adapted to individual aptitudes, pow
ers land possibilities. In other words,
they have discerned that the school
has two important functions to per-
form: Cd To make pupils alike in
supplying them with common stock
of ideas. in providing common ba-
sis 8of loyalty, and in inculcating
corhmonality of standards-the great
task of the elementary school-and
t2f To make pupils different, to dis
coJer and cultivate their respective
indfvidualties
That the Pendleton high school
aims to give every boy and girl who
may enter 1t a8chance to develop
along lines of individual aptitude and
sodal needs is evidenced by the wide
variety of courses offered. Whether
tho student desires to prepare for coli
lege or for life's immediate activities
he may find ample opportunities open
to him in the various courses in lan-
guage literature, mathematics, hiss
tory. science, manual training. domes-
tic iarts and sciences. shorthand type
writing, bookkeeping, farm machin-
ery and gas engines.
The current year will witness the
introduction of an extensive course in
gas engineering that should prove es-
pecially attractive to the boys of this
locality. One who pursues this and
its related courses TO successful COM
pletion will have learned not only the
principles and operation of gas en-
gines but he will have acquired the
knowledge and training requisite to
enable him to repair automobiles and
tractors.
