What Others Think
The Question of Teachers Wages

TT the belief of the present editor that the school
teachers worthy of their hire, although there
are some who assert that they are being paid.
AS general thing, the teachers wage is not correct
ly stated For example, teacher is said to receive
$1OO per month"; and that is looked upon fair wage
for average teaching ability 1t is not much the
average clerk in railroad office receives the year
around, and in the of the teacher it is mis-
statement for the teacher is employed only nine
months of the year and actually receives only SIS per
month for her years work. During the vacation the
teacher prepare herself for the next school year.
and this preparation includes weeks spent at
some teachers training school which she must attend
at her expense, and this eats considerable hole
in her years income.
In the training of the present generation of youth
the teacher takes very prominent part. The word
pedagogue "a leader of children" and to this
leadership the children of every community owe
great deal than they their parents realize.
good conscientious teacher who consecrates the best
years of life to the education of youth richly deserves
any money compensation paid. A nation which show
ers "barbaric pearl and gold" upon her kings and
queens of the movies and makes her baseball stars.

Best of the Fair

n ERHAPS the greatest single feature of county
fair is the stimulus it gives to farm boys and
girls to develop interest in the farming in
dustry and at the time learn about up-to-
date agricultural methods.
While the country does not need more farmers
judged by reports of over-production, many sections
do need better farmers and this branch of extension
work called All club projects is doing much to pro-
vide potential farmers and farmers wives with
knowledge which will increase their usefulness.

That Great Industry

THE greatest industry of the community and
county resumes operations next week.
The public schools will assemble great deal
of raw material and begin the process of making
finished product. In many the task is that of
carrying the work that has been begun before.
Some of it is about half manufactured at the present
time. Some more work is necessary.

New Idea Meets Competition

~ OR the past several years the railroads have been
r. seriously hit by passenger competition But
while they may be down, to speak, they are
not out. The railroads themselves have the power to
solve many Of the troublesome problems that max
ing hard times for Them
Only few months ago the Baltimore Ohio
railroad introduced air-cooled train for passenger
service between Washington and New York. Com
petition from arplane line had been cutting into
passenger rates dangerously.
Since the introduction of ar-cooing there has
been than 200 per cent. increase in passenger
traffic the tran and the railroad is rushing
air-cooled to completion 1t already has added
two trains of that type on Washington to New
York runs.
1t was good idea, and is receiving the recogni-
ton good ideas invariably command. Other railroads
are copying it, and the Baltimore & Ohio is making
money from it. Passengers always have objected to
the discomfort and dirtness of trains during hot
Their; naturally, the service of artihcally
train, in which there necessity of opening win
dows, rewarded by increased patronage
Railroads may be down. but they're not out.

The Editors Dream

~ NOE upon time there was newspaper in a
I J perfect field. The news was plentiful and the
editor had many friends who tipped him off,
every story. Every merchant in the community
enthusiastic advertiser who demanded large
amounts of space each week and always had the copy
prepared in plenty of time Furthermore the adver-
tsers subscribed to fy-by-night schemes which
spirit money from home leaving nothing in return.
Every business man in town gave the home printer
chance to meet the out-of town price-consequently
the presses always humming. Even the SUBJ
scrbers perfect, always paying their subscrip
tons far in advance.
Then press day while the publisher pre-
pairing to send record edition to press, loaded with
advertising which would pay the last mortgage his
plant-he awoke and found his pipe had gone out,
spelling the dream.

Customers and Prices

1.-TWO stores over at Window recently-the story
goes-engaged in ruinous price which
started with 81 shirts and ended when of
the stores was giving shirts away with nickel as
bonus money.
Obviously such phenomenon profted one,
unless it the wholesaler for the merchants lost
money and the apparently fortunate buyer got
thing upon which he could place little value. The
whole affair may be regarded, the story is true,
joke on the angry merchants.

High Taxes

High Taxes
4 MONG the for high taxes and for the
~ annual post office deficit may be listed the huge
quantities of publicity material franked through
the mails by ambitious federal departments.
Balls of material sent to newspaper offices
every week in the hope that of the items may be
printed. Except for releases from the bureau
which have real value, very little of the mater
al from federal is printed in the fifty sixty
papers which come to the office each week.
Why federal departments such the war de-
parment for instance persist in sending page after
page of waste basket copy is difficult It is
not contention that this is the reason for high
taxes but it is example of the governmental waste
which leads to them.

Mental Measles.

 Among the various diseases which have been dis covered by mankind statistics among the most insidious and dangerous Statistics kind of mental measles particularly common in the United States This plague flourshed in Germany before the war but America is now it's playground. Sir James Irvine Vice Chancellor of the University Of St. Andrews last week developed alarming at tack of the evil. His "post-graduaton address showed that he had been, more or less affllcteo during the last four years since he had dis covered a report which aimed at showing the age at which men are most intellectually productive Sir James indulged in bout Of the most mean ineess statistics that Nordic brain could produce. His report said that thinkers were head Of the list at the age of fifty-two Humorsts, statesmen, and philosophers followed in this mys- terious lis-of mysterious origin-whose main object appeared to be to attach greater importance to intellectual work done at the age of fifty or there abouts than to youthful efforts. Sir William Osler put mans best period between twenty eight and forty The report to which Sir James alluded estab- lished by methods of measurement which must surely have been kept secret, order of ideas The real fun-or poison-of this kind of statlstcs' however is their application to personalities Enthu- sastic supporters of the gold standard will deght in pointing out that MT.

Sta ttstics, may be used on either any side; and statistics are always forthcoming from somewhere to prove anything. One thing appears probable: that the sort of statistics which were quoted by Sir James must be matched either in early infancy or at senility's final stages

SEVENTY -YEAR-OLD OREGONIAN HAS
 ITS THIRD EDITOR.

The selection of Paul R. Kelly for the editor ship of the veteran Portland Oregonian makes the third editor that paper has had since almost US beginning. Seventy years is a long time for news paper to be published with only two editors
 MT Kelly like his predecessor, Edgar A. Piper was trained in journalism the Oregonian HIS selection is a guarantee that the policy that has made Portlands famous newspaper first among West ern dailies for most of its long lifetime will be continued.
 The Oregonion, like the New York Sun before it was bought by Frank Munsey has been an e1- fective college of journalism. Many of the best writers and soundest thinkers of the Pacific coast have been developed on 1t. Many a youth who never attended college attained profound education and high scholarship through employment on US editorial staff. It would be hazardous to attempt an enumeration of partial list of them for so many would be forgotten. Alfred Holman, Albert Bigelow Edgar Piper, Paul Kelly are only a iew of the very able newspapermen who grew to great attainments under the guidance of Harvey Scott the architect of the Oregonian and one of America greatest editors.
