map as a distributing point. We
already have visions of the IRON
horse meandering up the historic
Orofino creek: we can almost hear
the sceech of the steam whistle re-
verberating thru the primeval for

and the woodsman's cross-cut saw.
We will continue to dream until
these visionary expectations become
a reality.

Interesting Sermon at the Methodist
Church.

A very interesting and instructive
sermon was delivered at the Metho-
dist church, Sunday, February 2,
by the pastor. Rev. F. l.. Moore. A
brief synopsis of this moral discus
sion follows:
How to Be Less Than a Man"
Manhood is a tremendous obliga-
ton. David. in his charge to Solo
mon. said: "Show thyself Man"
In Ezekiel the Lord said: II sought
for man among them-but I
found none" That does not mean
there were no adult male humans,
but no MAN among them.
1t means more than being a man
of physical strength. John l.. Sui
livan wore the belt for the world $
championship heavyweight prize
fighter when in his prime, but John
Barleycorn knocked him out; and
John L. Sullivan, in his old age, re-
nounced booze and as a christian
man fought the liquor traffic. he
was very much more a man than
when he fought Paddy Ryan. A
man is less than a man when he is
living at lower level than his
best. God placed man here on the
earth to be His friend, and when
man went back on his Friend he
became a good bit less than a man
But God is endeavoring by every
possible way to get man pack to
real manhood, and to real friend
ship with Himself
Nothing less than your very best
will satisfy God-and nothing less
will satisfy you.
What we men of Orofino need is
mighty purpose to renounce any
thing that savors of wrong doing
and to go in for the very best, with
Gods help. To have no compromise
with evil of any sort, and to live sc
God will not be ashamed to be call
ed our God. We owe it to ourselves
to the young folks of our town, and
to God, to so live that in Orofino II
will be easy for a man to do right
and hard to do wrong.

ment of the U. S. had put aside the
necessary funds to complete twenty
Ave miles of the Lewis and Clark
Highway between Kooskia and Low

further aid in the survey of this

for the Ambrose Channel beacon. It's rays
were nearer port. nearer home. Tho time
was New Years Eve.
There was every sentimental and patri
otic reason for hoping that the bay light
had been sighted. The assumption, IL 1t
really was made. denoted bad seamanship.
and yet a state OF frailty so human as TO
inspire sympathy.
OF course. In the inquiry which will
follow the accident psychological causes
will be unconsidered. An error which
might have been tragic and which is Ger.
tain to be costly was committed, It will be
duly censured, as are quite properly all
such mistakes at sea. The offense, un-
mitigated by any curtain Of fog, imperiled
human lives and may result in the loss of
a crack ship.
In fixing the blame the impatient home-
coming aspirations OF all on board will not
be reckoned. Skill. regardless OF emotions,
is demanded OF navigators. Palllation for
failure is often accepted from landsmen.
Renunclation Of that grace Is tho essence
Of the formidable contract which all skip
pers make with the implacable sea.

Flood OF Wm. STAMPS

DHlLATELY already Is aware Of the ex-
L istence of approximately $3.50 stamps
which but for the war would not have come
forth Roughly. these may be classed as
follows: Charity. or Red Cross; military
Tor use OF troops; occupation. for use by
peoples of invaded lands; war tax, for use
on mail in addition to regular adhesives
commemorative issued especially because OF
events related to the war I: revenue, or fiscal
labels for facilitating collection of levies on
commodities or documents, and provisional
necessary because Of shortage of customary
paper. or increase OF postal rates, or ex-
haustion of stamp supplies, or scarcity OF
dyestuffs, or any one OF a dozen and more
other reasons
The powers associated against the Teu-
tonic alliance issued more than three time,
the number Of war stamps put forth by the
countries of that alliance. OF the total OF
Sl57 known war stamps tho United States
and Allies have put forth 2274 varieties, or
more than two-thirds. The Central Powers
Issued $50, or less than one-fourth.
The United States ranks fourth, with ap.
proximately 200 varieties. These include sew
eral sets due to revenue legislation, thrift ana
airpost labels, new values which economic
conditions brought into use varieties In dies
and shades due to worn and retouched
plates and to scarcity of dyestuffs after Ger
manys exports of this commodity were cut
off.

THE first act Of the Michigan Legislature
I after organizing was the adoption OF the
prohibition amendment to the Federal Con-
stitution. Fifteen States had previously
ratified it. They are in the order of rati.
ncation, Mississippi, Virginia Kentucky,
North Dakota, South Carolina, Maryland,
Montana, Texas, Delaware. South Dakota,
Massachusetts, Arizona. Georgia, Louisi.
ana and Florida.
Four States have rejected the amend.
ment. They are New York, New Jersey,
Rhode Island and Nebraska
II the example of the sixteen ratifying
States is followed by twenty others. making
thirty-six, the amendment becomes the
law OF the land II nine States follow the
example Of the rejecting Legislatures.
making thirteen. national prohibition by
constitutional amendment will be defeated.
The Legislatures of a majority Of the
States meet this winter so that it is likely
that the fate OF the amendment will be
sealed before the middle of the summer.
The vets will exert themselves TO win in
nine States. No one can say today what
success will accompany their efforts The
drys will, " course, do their best TO force
favorable action in twenty States. They
will certainly succeed in several, but the
result in other States, notably in Penn
sylvania, is still in grave doubt.
