DOROTHY DIX'S TALK
POLITENESS IN THE HOME CIRCLE.
BY DOROTHY DIX,
The Worlds Highest Paid Woman !

The little four-year-old accidentally
spilled some Of his cocoa on the nice
clean white tsblecloth. His mother re-
proved him sharply for being piggy and
sloppy, and sent him from the table.
The little fellow was crushed with
modification, and as he climbed down
from his high chair. he turned TO his
mother and sobbed out: J.,
why don't you treat me polite, like
! was company, and say that 1t doesn't
make any differenoe?"
And we grownups looked at each
other aghast, and someone murmured,

skeleton in the closet Of practically
every household,
It's Jack OF politeness. It's lack OF

that we show to tho most casual
stranger. That is the real thing that
Is the matter with domesticity. That
ls what makes marriage a failure, That
Is why we say there IL 40 place like
home, and thank God for it. That is
why husbands and wives strain on the
bond that ties them together, ana why
brothers and sisters scatter to the four
ends OF the earth, and the sons and

and are popularity regarded, as mar

For II IL only too sadly true that there
la nobody on earth h treats you with
the same degree of brutality that your
| own family does. There Is nobody else
who is so rude to you, or who shows 80
little regard for your sensibilities, Your
worst enemy would not think OF Of
fering you tho insults that nre freely
rendered to you by those who really
love you.
No popularity Of human nature is SO
inexpliCable az this. Why u nearest
and dearest should daily stab us to the
heart with speeches leaving wounds
that never heal. why the hands that
We trust should bare our weaknesses to
the public and point out our defects,
nobody knows,
II IL merely true that there seems to
DO a general impression that the family
circle Is the only place in the world
where people can dispense with the

with each other, and In which every

Undertaking as cXpeditiously as the situation i'll Germany will
permit. To what extent it will be carried we have no means of
knowing, but it should be eventually accomplished completely
and thoroughly.
We must not permit miitarism to gain a foothold in this
country. We need to get back to the ways of peace and to the
pursuits OF peace. A big army is a public charge and a con-
slant menace, not only to other countries, but to the country
that supports the army.
We must be prepared to combat the arguments for prepared
ness in its most sinister aspect. These are a lot of generals
colonies, majors and captains who would like to hold on to what
they have, as well as the prospects for promotion that ever
beckon them onward and upward The only way they can be
kept in the service is to provide an army to which they can give
their attention,
Unless the fruits OF victory are s~quandercd at the Versailles
peace conference, we shall not need a great army for manv wears
perhaps never again in the lives OF those who have rome THROUGH
this war. The fault was not that England, France and the
United States did not have big standing armies at the beginning
of the war, but the fault was that the allied nations permtted
Germany to prepare for 40 years, without a protest, for a war
she was determined to have, while the other nations persisted
in giving the best possible evidence OF their determination not
to have a war by failing to prepare.

More Help Needed
To Make Bandages

A call has been issued for workers
in the surgical dressing department
of the Red Cross auxiliary, which
meets in the Red Cross headquarters
every Tuesday and Thursday. While
this work is tedious and particular,
it is absolutely necessary, and many
start with good intentions of keeping
at this branch of Red Cross work, but
soon drift into the sewing circle,
which in many cases is overcrowded.
Dandages must be provided for the
wounded men, and frequently are of
more Importance than clothing. The
only requirements for workers in this
department are head kerchiefs and
coverall aprons, as absolute SANTA
tion is necessary. This work is so
essential that more help must be OBJ
tained in order to fill the calls for
surgical dressings made upon this
auxiliary.

Ashland St0ckman
Acquires More Land

An important deal in real estate
was .consummated Thursday by
which Nicholas Dix, who lives on the
old Kennard place about one and
one-half miles south of Ashland, ac-
quired the o. Winter farm across
Bear creek, consisting of 100 acres.
Mr.. Dix is a stockman and came here
last summer from Canada. Condi-
tions in this section of the country
met with his approval, and he traded
his Canadian property for the farm
on which he now resides and went
into stockraising extensively. The
land he already possessed was insult
ficient to support the amount of cat.
tie he desired, so he concluded to
branch out. The deal was made
through the c. B. Lamkin agency.

Farm Campaign to
Start This Week

Today marks the opening OF the
nationwide campaign directed by the
National Council of Defense for the
enrolment of all boys of the ages
16 to 21, inclusive, in the United
States Boys Working Reserve. In
Oregon it has been found necessary
to defer this campaign one week.
Postponement of the campaign for
enrolment of boys in Oregon for SER
vice in taking care of crops comes
about because of the sudden calling
to another state of the man who was
to direct the crusade. ]. w. Brewer.
government farm specialist, has been
announced from the Council of De-
fense headquarters to become direct
or of the drive.
The plan of enlsting school and
college boys and all others who are
willing to do what they can to help
take care of crops which the farmers
of the nation may produce this year,
has been evolved by the National
Council of Defense.
Jackson county has been enlisted
in this campaign and in a short time
plans will be completed
and announced.
