TO REORGANIZE WORK OF GOVERNMENT
In the projected reorganization of offices of the federal government at Washington, practical provision probably will be made for relieving the President of much of the outflowness of his great office. It is proposed to provide an assistant to the President and a number of executive secretaries, whose function it would be to take care of politics, patronage, correspondence and callers.
An arrangement of this kind would relieve the President immensely. As Secretary Hughes asserted in a recent speech, the time and the nervous energy of the President are wasted on callers and on importunities from individuals and organizations. If the chief magistrate were removed from direct contact with these importunities, he would have more time and more energy to devote to the weighty affairs of state.
In the planned reorganization of federal departments and offices, President Coolidge believes that great economies can be effected, and at the same time that the efficiency of the public service can be enhanced. Reforms like this would be welcomed by the masses of taxpayers, and would be repugnant only to those who would lose position by consolidations and re-arrangements, and to politicians who use offices as pawns in playing the game of politics.
Many a life is passed in indulgence and shiftlessness. It is coming to pass that human society should insist that its members bear their share of the burdens and responsibilities of the day. Chronic indulence should be treated as a misdemeanor, if not a crime.

Many a life is passed in indolence and shiftlessness. It is coming to pass that human society should insist that its members bear their share of the burdens and responsibilities of the day. Chronic indolence should be treated as a misdemeanor, if not a crime.
EXTINCTION OF TURKEY IS THREATENED
By the year 1950 they may be singing on the stage. "Yes, we have no turkey today!" just as now the silly air about the banana is heard—to distraction of hearers throughout the land. The turkey, poultry experts say, is on the toboggan, gliding downward toward extinction, along with the dodo, and other birds which have gone the way of the earth. The Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner of the future may be turkeyless.
Raising of turkeys, commercially, does not pay any more, it is said. Besides, in Texas, and other states where there has been broad range for turkeys, the land is being cut up into small parcels for intensive farming. Furthermore, son and daughter are leaving the farm for the city and father and mother cannot wrestle with farm problems alone and raise turkeys, too.
A great deal would pass out of the national life if the turkey became extinct. The turkey dinner for Thanksgiving has become a delicious tradition. There are toothsome substitutes for turkey, it is true. But it would take the American people a long time to become reconciled to the loss of this famous bird.
This country never should elerate rich's above honor.
Many persons are slowly killing themselves by not taking sufficient exercise in the open air.
The world is seen, heard and comprehended by the masses through the medium of the newspaper press. The indispensable role that the newspaper plays in the great drama of modern life is made manifest when a big center of population, such as New York, is deprived, for a few days, of newspapers.

WHO'S WHO IN THE DAYS NEWS
C. N. McARTHUR
Former Congressman C. N. McArthur of Oregon has announced his intention of running for the U. S. senate on an anti-Ku Klux Klan platform at the Oregon primaries next year. All the other potential candidates except McArthur, a Protestant defeated by the Klan for re-election to congress last year, are angling for the invisible empire's support.
McArthur, a Republican, was first elected to represent the third Oregon district in the lower house in the fall of 1914. He was regularly renominated and re-elected until last years when his opposition to the Ku Klux Klan brought about his defeat.
Before going to congress McArthur had been speaker of Ohio Oregon house of representatives. He had also served as secretary to Gov. Frank W. Berenson.
Although McArthur studied for the bar at the University of Oregon and still maintains an interest in that profession, he is better known for his extensive farming and cattle breeding interests. He is an Episcopalian, and a thirty-second degree Mason.

COMMENTS OF THE PRESS
EDITORS ARE SAYING
BUSINESS OUTLOOK PROMISING—Riverside (Calif.) Press
Charles M. Schwab, who should know, is warning the country against inflation. He puts it thus:
Business is biennial and industry is active throughout the country and we have every reason to feel happy over the situation. The indications are that we are entering upon a period of expansion, and the utmost caution must be observed to prevent this from developing into a second inflation, which would be disastrous.
Andrew B. Mellon, Secretary of the Treasury, whose source of information should be no less dependable than those of the step king, takes a rather different view. There is, he insists, no certainment of business activity in sight, and no sign of inflation. The limitations of the labor supply and of the Nation's railroad facilities will, he believes, prevent the growth of commercial activity beyond the danger mark. He only admits that the continued rise of prices and wages might tend, in the long run, to make trouble; but he is sure that production in all lines is still well ahead of consumption.
You can take your choice of opinions, but there is one thing about the situation that is not to be disputed. Inflation always means personal extravagance, speculation and undue expansion. Thrift and efficiency in management always tend to delay the development of these businessills. We are on the crest of the wave now. As a Nation it will be worth our while to avoid sliding into the trough by the silk shirt and $18-shoe foolishness of 1912 and 1920.
Good business cannot last forever, but if we are careful we can make it last until we have saved enough to tide us over the next off season.
ON THE SPUR OF THE MOMENT
THE CATSKILLS
Oh the vastness of the Catskills
And the thrill that comes over you
When you see the verdant mountain
Come in tones of russet gold.
Reveals to you the magic brush
The great Artist can unfold.
And the glory of the moonlight,
Shining silver on the trees.

ON THE SPUR OF THE MOMENT
THE CATSKILLS
Oh the vastness of the Catskills
And the thrill that comes over you
When you see the verdant mountain
Topped by azure skies of blue.
As you stand before the mighty,
Awed by majestic state
Of the grandeur of the Catskillis
You are borne to heaven's gate.
And the splendor of the sunsets,
Come in tones of russet gold,
Reveals to you the magic brush
The great Artist can unfold.
And the glory of the moonlight,
Shining silver on the trees,
Mingles with the fresh pine odor
Wafted by the evening breeze.
The memory of the Catskills
And the scenes are not in vain.
For dreaming, I shall wait the day
To bring me back again.

Movie directors go out on location, but all they ever shoot are scenes. It seems a pity sometimes that they don't shoot some of the actors.
UPSOPHISTICATION
Far off, where days are thoughts and nights are dreams,
Where sunsets are the songs an old man sings,
There is an orchard, found by stray moonbeams,
Where Romance sleeps mid vague imaginations.
Beneath an apple tree his cloak is spread
When dark comes swarming up the quiet lane,
But are the stars have passed from sleep he died.
To seek for blossoms where his head has lain.
Amid the moistened chill of early dawn,
Or stifling wildfire of a dazzling noon,
It is the same—he lives that he may scorn
What is for dreams that died behind the moon.
Poor Romance! Seeking for a place to sigh
Among the orchard trees. When leaves have turned
To smoke that lingers in the autumn sky,
Will he have conquered dreams? Will he have learned?
—Harry Freeman Thompson
