RED CROSS WORK
Helping Deformed Children Who
Are Poor and Helpless

When doughboy was shot dowr
in the front lines all the surgeons
on the western front could not have
helped him had it not been for the
stretcher-bearers. Even were he able
to walk, he could not find the dress
sing stations unless they pointed the
way; generally they carried him.
In the south today there are hun
dreds of crippled children. There
are also many hospitals where club
feet are Strengthened and withered
limbs made strong. But the fathers
and mothers of these little unfor-
tunates often do not know OF the hos
pitals; and when they do, they are
generally too poor or too helpless
to send their children away for treat
ment.
The American Red Cross has been
stretcher-bearer in many such cases
in the past two years. One country
will suffice as an illustration In
Brooks county, Georgia, states the
Ouitman Free Press, the Red Cross
secretary has hunted up several chill
dren who were crippled. Three of
them already have been sent to the
Scottish Rite Home, in Atlanta, with
out cost either to the Red Cross or
Ia the parents. They will be cured

THE AMERICAN CREED
Should Be Memorized by Every
True American and Lived Up to

Sunday, previous to presenting his
regular sermon, Rev. r. E. Newton
referred to the recent change that
had been indicated as being desired
by the people of the country and
urged that all should be loyal to the
government regardless of which par
ty chanced to BE in power. In this
connection he stated that he felt
that what is known as the"American
Creed" should be understood by
every citizen of the country and think
ing there might be some present who
were not familiar with it he read it
1t follows:
THE AMERICAN CREED
Il believe in the United States
of America as a government of
the people, by the people, for
the people, whose just powers
are derived from the consent of
the governed; democracy in
a republic; "a sovereign nation
of many sovereign states, per
feet union, one and insepara
blee, established upon these
princiuiles of freedom, equality,
justice and humanity, for which
American patriots sacrificed
their lives and fortunes.
81, therefore, believe it is, my,
duty to my country to love it;
to support its constitution; to
obey its lawss to. respect its
flag, and to defend it against
all enemies" su
No Bolshevist or person who wish
es to destroy this government will
agree with this creed ia his heart,
even If he does give lip appfo-
val. Every true American should
it and keep it fresh in
his memory and try TO live in full
with it.

products be marketed comparatively
as the demand requires-judgment
as to the time being left with the
growers representatives.
The farmers are acting on the as
sumption that there is no law which
can compel them to market their
products in a falling market. any
more than a manufacturer can be
forced to sell his merchandise at a
loss. No prices will be fixed by the
farmers. for this action would prob
ably bring them in conflict with the
Sherman antitrust law.
1t remains to be seen how we'll the
farmers will stand together in the
proposed plan, which, if it does moth
ing else, may have the effect of
forcing some action on the part of
congress to give the agricultural in
terests greater security from losses
on their products through specula-
ton. The action may have the eff
feet of bringing producers and con-
sumers into closer relations by the
elimination of middle men who take
profits without actually handling

TRANSPORTING SCHOOL
CHILDREN

The advantages of the large grad
ed school are being appreciated by
the people of King county. During
the past year II of the smaller dis
tricts have discontinued their rural
schools and are now transporting
their children to larger school CEN
tiers. The school districts of King
county are supporting so routes of
transportation which daily , carry
1903 grade pupils and 513 high
school pupils to large central schools.
Some of these children are carried
distances that range from four to
80 miles each day in going to and re-
turning from school. Wagons.
launches and auto-stages are used
the latter being used most. The
number of pupils carried varies from
six to so in a single machine.
The largest route originates at
Selleck and runs to Enumclaw, a
distance of 16 miles, and carries all
high school pupils living at Selleck,
Durham, Palmer, Bayne, Cumber-
land, and Veazie to the Enumclaw
high school. About 800 pupils are
thus put in touch with the best high
school work.
This indicates that transportation
facilities can be made very practic-
able. 1t is one of the factors which
aids very much in the splendid
growth of the consolidated schools.

THE RIGHT POLICY

The athletic authorities at thu
State College acted wisely in bench
ing, on the eve of the o. A. c. game
two veteran players, who had beer
guilty of INSTRUMENTATION and of lack
of team work This action would
have been justified even if it had
meant certain loss of the game.
Any player who does not value the
honor of being chosen to represent
his college in an athletic contest suf-
ficiently to strictly observe the train
ing rules, to cheerfully obey the
directions of the coach and to 10y
ally cooperate with his team mates,
is not an asset, no matter how much
skill and strength he possesses.
Eleven men of mediocre football
prowess, working tremendously to-
gether, will win more games than a
team of II stars, each playing for his
own glory. The moment player be-
gins TO think more about winning a
his fraternity than about contributing
his best to the success of the team,
that moment he becomes liability.
Team work and respect for disci-
pline are absolute essentials to sue
cess in any branch of sport and the
athletic prestige of any college de-
ponds largely upon the recognition of
these requirements by the players
chosen to represent it.
The athletic standing of any insti-
tuition does not depend upon success
in any one game or in any one sea-
son, but on its average success in a
period of years, and this average sue
cess hinges largely upon the stand
ard of discipline and cooperation
enforced among the players.
Individual wrangles or fraternity
jealousies are disrupting factors GER
tain to impair the playing of any
team and should not be tolerated
They have been tolerated in the past
with disastrous results to the ath-
letic record of the State College.
Now that the precedent of taking
drastic action to put an end to in
subordination and trouble making
has been established, it should be
strictly maintained, and in future
every student should thoroughly un-
derstand that his selection to repre-
sent the college in any branch of
athletics carries with it an obliga-
ton to train strictly, to obey orders
cheerfully and to work harmonious
ly with his fellow players for the
success of the team rather than for
his own glorification. If he is not
willing to accept and live up to this
obligation he is not worthy of the
honor of wearing a w and should
be benched, regardless of his ath-
letic experience or prowess.

SENIORS FAVOR
ii WHITE SWEATERS

The senior class went on record
as favoring the white sweaters as
senior class distinction at Thursday s
meeting. 1t was generally felt
among the class that the junior class
had a right to legislate for them
selves, but that they should let a col
lege tradition stand, even though that
tradition is not very old and not as
well established as it will be in time
It was stated that the white sweat
er is not only distinctive, but is serv-
iceable and is good investment,
since a sweater is always in demand
emf after college days are over 1t
can easily be dyed some other color.

Through the cooperation of SUI
perintendent of Schools Henry and
Principal Gaiser, The Herald is en-
abled this week to add a new feat
ure to its columns in the form of a
High School department, which will
be edited by students in the school.
The management is confident that
this department will be of much in
terest to the readers of the paper
and of value to the high school stu
dents, as it will give them excellent
practice in collecting and writing
news items.
The department will appear regu-
larly in each issue of The Herald,

A GOOD EXAMPLE

There has been whole lot of talk
Ing about the necessity for building
more houses in Pullman to accom-
modate the people who want to make
their homes here, but talk never
built a house Now +. c. Forrest
and Dr. J.. G Kinney have broken
the ice by letting the contract for the
construction OF modern double
house on c street. They are build
ing it out Of patriotism and not for
profit, with the hope that others Will
emulate their example and build
dwellings to be sold on easy terms,
with the idea of meeting an acute
civic need, rather than OF making
lucrative investment,
The need OF more houses is self
evident The State College has out
grown the town and the enrolment
of students has reached it's maxi
mum, until more accommodations
can be provided. A few weeks ago
a woman from Seattle came to Pull
man with the intention of making
her home here while her eldest son
went through college and two young
er children went to through high
school and college Her son
wished to enroll at the State
College instead of at the Uni
versity. She was unable to find
house and returned to Seattle, As
a result the collge lost and the uni
versity gained "a student This is
not an isolated case. During the past
summer scores of families who de
sired to move to Pullman, because Of
the educational advantages offered
here, were unable to come because
they could not find dwelling places
This is a serious situation because
it prevents the growth of the college
as well as of the city. If the situa-
tion is to be relieved a building cam
paign must be inaugurated in which
the impelling motive of the builders
shall be pride in Pullman, not de-
sire fol dollars
As an investment the building of
houses at present prices offers no in
ducements, but in satisfaction re-
sulting from contributing to the well
fare of the city and college, it will
pay big dividends
Those who are not able to finance
the building of a house can assist by
clubbing their resources through the
Community Building association.
which has already rendered a big
service by erecting the Community
dormitory.
Who will be the next to join the
honor roll of citizens who will build
house out of patriotism instead of
for profit?
