"You treat the boys just like they
do In Pendleton," said a soldier who
took luncheon at the Red Cross can
teen in Tho Dalles recently. And the
way in which he made the remark
Bhowed that he considered Pendloton's X
service the acme of fperfection, ac-
cording to workers at The Dallcs can
teen.
Pendleton's cantcen, which Is To-
Gated at the o.-w. X. & N. depot.
stands as one OF the most completely
equipped In the northwest. and is
unique in that the train schedule per
mits the daily serving of breakfast,
luncheon and dinner. as Well as the
serving of lunches to men on special
troop trains Fruit. candy, ham
sandwiches. ice cream coffee. dough-
nuts and cigarettes are presented to
the service men. Several service men
have volunteered the information
that In most cities only one cigarette
is given to each man, while Pendleton
presents whole package. Every
thing served at the canteen is free to
service men.
Started I'm 1917.
The canteen service in this city had
its beginning in the spring of 1917.
when fruit and magazines were given
to service men. In the fall of 1917
the Red cross appointed an executive
committee to serve on the canteen
committee. Mrs. Harold Barnett. at
that time Miss Lola Rogers OF this
city was leader of the local Honor
Guard and was made chairman. and
after her resignation Miss Evelyn
Sommerville became chairman. In
March. Miss Virginia Todd. head of
the County Honor Guard. and at pres
ent secretary of the Umatllla County
Red Cross, and OF the Home Service,
became the head OF the canteen work
Because of the governments policy
of secrecy in regard to the arrival of
troops during the war, IL was impos-
sible for the canteen to serve meals
here during 1917 and the early part of
1918, but the canteen service took the
form OF boxes OF lunch which were
presented TO draft men from this voun-
ty Boxes were given to volunteers
when the committee was apprised in
advance of the departure of such
men.
After the signing OF the armistice IL
became possible for the Red Cross to
secure information as to the arrival
OF troops in the city. and Miss Todd
decided to make every effort to begin
an organized canteen. With the aid
OF other Pendleton girls Miss Todd ar
ranged for the serving Of breakfast,
luncheon and dinner on n table on the
O.-w. r. & n. platform. and she thus
became the founder of local Red

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

Here and there a paper butonhoes the American citizen in a high
ly personal way, and endeavors to make him realize us individual re
sponsibIiy. What are you doing to reduce the cost OF living de
mands The Wall Street Journal, superemphasizing the nudge by de-
claring, This means YOU" and going on to say:
This is no time to make of your neighbor a moral umbrella. Ev-
cry producer is himself a consumer, and it does not matter whether
what he produces, more than he knows the product is worth, he is a
party to the condition he deplores and he can not blame others for
doing what he is doing himself.
"The only difference between the railroad unions and other unions
is that, taking advantage of their strength and the cowardice of Con
gress, they have used the high cost of living as a stalking horse to
secure higher wages, irrespective of the value of their service to the
community or the source from which those higher wages are to be
secured.
"They are willing that all the commodities which they pay for
out of those wages shall be reduced in price, and they decline to see
or recognize that the commodity OF transportation al only be sold at
the cost of production. This cost must be met out of the pocket of
all consumers, either in higher commodity prices or by means of taxa
ton which will ultimately be shifted to the shoulders of the consumer.
when the farmer demands and receives from a short-sighted
Administration 81 20 a bushel for wheat, the basic food product, he is
not only advancing the price of al! other foods. He is advancing the
prices of everything he consumes. And yet with the railroad worker
and many others who believe that they have a strangehod upon the
public throat, he too is talking of the high cost of living and the high
wages demanded by his hired men, to say nothing of the cost of feed
ing them.
"To use a word forever on their lips, these men are all profteers,
and the greatest prohteer in the country today is the labor-unon, with
not go on forever, and it is dimly seen that the break may come soon.
This is why the railroad unions are bringing pressure to bear upon an
opportunist Administration and a cowardy Congress. AS the man in
the street would put it, the slogan is grab while the grabbing is good,
and let the devil take the hindmost'
"a combined Federal, State, and municipal effort to restrain ex-
tortonate prices may do something to help, but only when members Of
the highly protected classes take up the matter Individually and unset
hshly. Much may be done by local pressure upon the crooked retailer
and cooperation by the honest retailers. But reform in this matter,
like charity, begins at home. When you talk of the advance in the
cost of living, you to whom a Ford machine is a luxury and one you
did not enjoy hive years ago Or think you needed, are YOU speaking in
terms of bread or gasolne?'
This editorial comes home to everyone in every part Of America,
of which the Territory of Hawaii is not excluded. Dealers Or produc-
ers, what are you doing on Maui to reduce the cost of living?

NON YOU KNOW WHAT 1T IS

1t has long been the custom for European writer's to try and explain
American ways and customs to their. readers, with, TO us, laughabe
results. Some of them get a half understanding of the workings of
the American mind and temperament and some never get any. In
this latter class is the German writer, to whom American ways and
things will ever remain a mystery. AS an example we quote the fol-
lowing from the pen of George Rarthelme, who attempts to explain
TO his German readers through the Kol nische Zeiung the meaning Of
and the reasons for Jazz"
"Jazz is a philosophy of the world, and therefore to be taken sei-
.icle of psychical primitive movements seeking for a redeeming form,
always follow after music. Some might, indeed, suppose that this
muse had her jazz age behind her. However, we will not stop to dis
cus that. Jazz is, therefore, a musical revelation, a religion, a phios-
ophy of the world, just like expressonsm and impressionism. These,
however, are mere bits of things jazzsm is the whole business. 1t
is the higher unity; the Hegeian synthess, however, lies at the very
end in the denial of every other synthesis. It's not a putting together,
it's a tearing apart. It's not q solution, its resolution. It's simply
analysis gone mad. In jazzism you get careless of law-anarchy.
JazHsm is anonymous music. 1t is the denial of all musical syntax and
style, probably also of musical photography, which you can't find in
jazzism at all 1t is a subversion of all measures of sound and time.
1t is anti, anti, anti-antiW Wagner, anti Strauss, anti Roger, anti-De-
busy. 1t is also musical Bolshevism."
There is an expression which our grandmohers used to have when
referring to an involved explanation that cts as clear as mud" Per
haps the same Interpretation might be made to Barthelmes account
OF jazz from the German viewpoint. Without a doubt this explanation
is clear to the German mind, but to the American who knows the origin
of jazz to read that "jazzsm is amorphous music and the philosophy
of the world is somewhat bewildering. We agree with the German
writer, however that 'jazzism is musical Bolshevism" which is about
the only lucid idea which he has managed to give his readers. Per
haps, they being more familiar with Bolshevisic principles than we,
will be better able to understand the reasons for "jazz" than do Ameri-
There's one comfort about Jazz however. The Germans can't
claim to have invented, and Is it can't be improved upon, being a must
cal law complete unto itself they can't steal it from us and claim it
as their own.

How can Waikiki meet the same

as Honolulu seems to be having?
There ought to be a Humane Socie-

While speaking of nuisances we
would like to call attention to chickens

it the proper thing to allow their

WHEN POLIr}CS IRE DE TROP

We rejoice with Hlo at the vindcaton of DR.. d. S. Bowman
sanitary Inspector of the Big Island, who was tried on charges preferred
by S. S. Paxson, president of the Territorial Board of Health, and
whose trial has just ended. Judging from past performances of the
health board president and the evidences of insantation that abound
on Maui, we very much question whether Mr.. Paxson knows whether
a sanitary inspector was living UP to his job or laying down on it,
When the health of a community apparently is threatened by political
trickery and the self ACKNOWLEDGEMENT of those at the head of the health
board, it is time to cut out the politicians and put in men to whom
health comes first and politics second.
