II is n tavoritc pursuit Of rcpubll'
can newspapers to attack the al
ministration for lack of preparedness
for the great war, and then TO con
denim it for too much preparedness -
if we may so interpret the published
lists of war material for which large
sums were spent which never reached
the front or was found to be una
vailablc. Mistakes and waStoful ex.
penditure were natural on the part
Of pcaccable republic to which
war r-making is not proper business,
and the government was handicapped
by complex and pondcrous system
that has come down through the
years. Yet so well did the Wilson
administration function that while

could never have been won by the al

States. And no lives OF American
soldiers were unnecessarily saeri-
feed. as was the case in the Spanish
war under n republican administra-
tion. An immense and well-cQuipped
force was transported to France un-
der incredible difficulties and was
with General Pershing at the finish.
And the unused material for which
vast sums were spent would have
filled a pressing need had tho war
continued. The best evidence that
the work of the democratic admins.

is shown by the fact that practically
every German sympathizcr in the

1t being somewhat impracticable at
present to elect a democrat as prcs-
dent Of the state senate. it is pleas
ing to learn that Roy w. Ritncr's
chances are godd for that distinction.
Senator Ritncr is the kind Of a solon
who rides on the legislative band
wagon and helps to get things done.
He never runs around in circles with
helpless and hopeless minority, be-
wailing steam roller tactics. He is
rather apt, in fact. to be driving the
steam roller-or at least stoking the
engine. Moreover, he is hard-work-
ing, tactful and able legislator, and
has a good record Of service. The
election Of Mr.. Ritner to the presi.
dency Of the upper house would af-
ford recognition of Eastern Oregon
to which we feel that this great pro-
ducing section Of the state is at least
entitled.

There has been considerable in

VACATION EARNINGS
START GREAT CAREERS

One of the most interesting develop
ments of the times is the growing
custom of vacation work by the boys
and girls of the South who have
studied hard all the year It is said
that recently there were 300 boys and
girls from the high schools of At
lanta looking for work in this city and
a number were looking for work in
the country. They were willing to
do farm work, saw mill work, orchard
work or work in the stores and shops
Of the city.
These bows ard girls, when they
have completed their education, will
know how to make their work count in
a big way.
DR.. Andrew NJ. Soule, president of
the State College of Agriculture, tells
Of a red-headed boy who graduated
from the Atlanta high school few
years ago and is now making $4,000
a year on the farm. He went from
the Boys High School to the State
College of Agriculture and there spent
four years in the study of scientific
farming. After that he went on a
farm and worked hard. In a few
years he became very successful
farmer and last year won a prize of
$1,000 for the best crop of cotton
quality and quantity considered. His
whole earnings We're $4,000 net over
and above all expenses.
Meanwhile the country boys are
working and saving at a great rate.
Many Of them have made enough on
corn or pigs to send them to the Agri-
cultural College.
There is a bright future for scien-
tific farming. The authorities tell us
that as the cities grow the demand
for food in proportion to the supply
will continue to increase and the re-
ward of the farmer will be greater
and greater. It will be particularly
good for the scientific farmer who
adds practical training to his equip
ment.
1t is not only on the farm that bows
and girls work hard, but thousands
Of them in the towns and cities are the
owners of Liberty Bonds, bought with
their earnings. Some Of them are
going to college with the proceeds Of
these bonds and some are saving
them to use as a nest egg for bust
ness career.
These youthful workers, having
learned to save, should learn to make
their money work for them. This
may be done bv putting it in a safe
investment which will yield good
interest.
For the encouragement Of such
bows and girls the government pro-
vides an ideal investment in small
amounts in the shane of Savings
Stamps, which sell this month for
S4.18. One Savings Stamp bought
every week will amount to 81 1895 in
five years, This is good foundation
for a college course or the nest egg
for a business career.
The same process continued through
the tenth year with interest on the
previous saving would make a total
exceeding $4,000. This would be
nice start in business or would more
than pay for a college course.
The Covington leader. (Covington, Tenn.) 18??-current, 1920-07-15

Of course, this is the age Of young
men in business. All Of the maya
