GOVERNOR PLEASANT
URGES IMPORTANCE
OF SCHOOL ATTEN
DANCE
Governor Pleasant today issued
the following statement which is be
ing issued by the Governor in con
nection with the work he is doing
for the State Council of Defense, of
which he is chairman:
"In view of the many temptations'
to parents to keep children out of i
school and college during the coming
school year and while the war con- j
tinues, and the many unusual diffi-1
culties which must be overcome in j
order that there may be no lowering!
of standards of efficiency in the
schools, and because of the impor
tance to. the nation that both ef
ficiency and attendance be main
tained, and increased, if possible, I
strongly urge that every parent in
this State make every possible ef
fort to send all of their children to
school. We must not neglect this
most important object of civilization
and of government, however heavy
may be the hand of war upon our
time, our energies, and our financial
resources. If our great democ
racy shall endure, every child citi
zen must be educated."
JOHN MARSHALL,
Secretary.
WHERE ARE THE
SOCIALISTS GOING?
By John Erskine.
of The Vigilantes.
Why have so many of the socialists j
in the United States deserted their !
socialistic ideas? For years they
jbave preached the doctrine of a col
lective society, not always with suc
cess, but always, as we thought, with
sincerity. Now that the war has
brought home, even to conservative
minds the advantages of their the
ories, loyal citizens everywhere see
that the country must act as a state
not as a collection of individuals;
they see also w-hat may prove a more
important mission, that even when
peace returns, the country must
think and act as a state for the good
of the whole community. In the in
terest of the state, manufacturers
and farmers now submit to a govern
jment control of their pursuits, the
hpusekeper and the grocer submit to
a government clerk of the sonsump
sumption of food ; and men and wo
men accept government direction as
to what military or other service they
should undertake. At such a moment
it would be the most natural thing
in the world for the sincere socia
list to encourage these dispositions
toward a fuller idea of statehood,
and to make these dispositions per
manent after the war.
But are the socialists encouraging
these symptoms of a growing state?
Some of them are but they first re
sign from the socialist party. And
doubtless some of them are encour
aging these symptoms while still re
suming in the socialist party. But
the socialist of whom we hear most
now-a-days is primarily opposed to a
war with Germany, and in order to
make his opposition effective he is
sacrificing even his socialism—he is
behavng frankly as an anarchist
He knows that if war must be waged
it is most effectively waged under
the system of universal service; but
since he could not prevent this war,
he seems to be doing what he can
to see that we do not wage it effec
tively. He knows that co-operation
between labor and capital, between
railroads and the government, be
tween food producers and food con
sumers is a sign of increased effi
ciency in the state; therefore he re
fuies his aid to any such social
minded progress.
If he no longer is loyal to his
own ideals, to what or to whom is
Jie loyal?

CAVALRY RETURNS
FROM BORDE
j
!
The First Oregon Cavalry, on a
special train of eight coaches, passed
through Morgan City this morning
en route to New Orleans, where
they will be transferred on the
Queen and Crescent Route to North
Carolina. The soldiers are return
ing from the Mexican border and
were in splendid physical condition
and in the best iff spirits.
The baggage coach of the. Military
Special had been commandered by
the troopers and converted into a
kitchen. Camp cooks were busily
stirring pots and rolling dough over
the collapsible iron stove that they
had set up in one end of the car
and, from the hungry appearances
of the men, the Chef, a stout
good natured little Oregonian, was
the most popular member of the
command.
According to Sargeant Sills, the
Border life has been ideal from a
military viewpoint. The men have
been conditioned and are as fit as
veterans for the battlefields of Eu
rope.

Mary Pickford's newest Artcraft
production has just recently been
completed and presents the well
known play and story by Eleanor
Gates, "A Poor Little Rich Girl,"
produced under the able direction of
Maurice Tourneur. In this picture
"America's Sweetest" appears in a
rolé particularly adapted to her in
imitable talents. The picture will
be shown here in the Opera House
Wednesday night
The third Mary Pickford photo
play to be released by Artcraft Pic
tures shows the popular star once
more in the role of an American
girl. For some time past "Little
Mary" has portrayed characters of
foreign climes, all of which have dis
played the remrkable versatility of
this beloved girl.

"MY FOUR YEARS IN GERMANY," by Ambassador James W. Gerard, makes a sensational
strakiger and more dramatic in its episodes than fiction. It exposes the unscrupulous intrigues of
the Prussian court—intrigues that caused and are protracting the war. It explains many things about
which Americans have wondered—discloses amaxing facts hitherto sealed in secret archives. Its revela
tions are of international importance and will be read eagerly in every capital in the world.
