-1 \Y \UI>. YLASK V. FRIDAY, Jl NE 2, 1916.
Peculiar little things happen all the time if we could only take time to
notice them. Sitting at u lunch counter this morning a man, no less than
the mayor, remarked that when a person gets married in Seattle he gets a *
present of a cook book root the officials. Another man was telling about a
certain veterinary surgeon at the very same lunch counter and he casually j
remarked that thi> veterinary was employed by him to drive a horse and
wagon.
These two things were spoken of within fifty seconds of each ohher and ^
each is almost a supreme example of appropriateness and inappropriateness.
The idea of a horse surgeon getting a "position driving an old plug in a
v agon looks like Mark Twain* It may not be an “appropriate” job but then
his profession deah with horses. Even worse i& the idea o! the Seattle of
ficials giving a cook book to the blushing bride. The gift is the result of an
advertising plan but surely it is a diabolical one. if useful withal. Such a ;
gift suggests a sad deficiency in all brutes but the donors are wise. Well
they know that from the time the marriage ceremony is completed the ro
mance begins to descend gradually from the heart to the stomach. And at
the moment of the recital of the two facts stated here there appeared to be
absolutely no connection between them.
The schools of Seward, according to the opinion of all who have the time
or ability to give the matter thought, have been kept at a very high state of
efficiency or have, indeed, reached a higher state of efficiency than ever before.
This seems to be the candid opinion of the vast majoirty of the residents, and
the matter is supremely important. The education of the coming generation
should always be the chief care of the foregoing generation. It is better to
be dead than go through life crassly ignorant. The mind which misses the ,
experienced guidance that enables it to think intelligently becomes *.\n abor
tion and a curse instead of a blessing to its possessor. People should think -
twice and a thousand times for the sake of those to come before they let
anything but the desire for good education influence them in any matters '
pertaining to school training.
C \STOR OIL—NOT C ANNON
STRIKES TERROR TO
ITALIAN SOLDIERS
Ry JOHN H. HEARLKY
(Special to Gateway by United Cress'!
FLORENCE, Italy, May 2. - t R\
Mail)—Castor oil—not the great can
non of the Austrians—is the terror of
the Italian army today.
Even amid the tremendous business
of battle Italy’s brave warrior sons
shrink from this sickening!} melli
fluous remedy, Mrs. Edith Southwell,
an English nurse in a local hospital
for the wounded, has discovered.
Nurse Southwell was told by the
attending physician to dose her pati
ents with castor oil. Anticipating no
difficulties, she said:
“Yes, doctor, I will do sc tonight at
their bed time/’
At the Sand Man hour she therefore
appeared in her ward among her
twentv-tive crippled soldiers. In her
hands ohc bore a tray, holding twen
ty-live individual portions of castor
oil.
Aroused by the sight, the battle
scarred heroes shouted; “What is
it?”
“Why, castor oil!” innocently re
plied the nurse.
“Oh!” came a chorus of disgusted
voices, “No! No! No! No!”
And it was “No!”, for the men in
mild language and strong persisted in
their refusals.
Poor Nurse Southwell sat the tray
and herself on the floor in the centre
of her rebellious company.
What could she do? She pondered.
Then came the inspiration. She van
ished for a moment, returning with
the twenty-sixth glass of castor oil.
“See here, boys,” she cried, “you

don't understand. This isn’t castor
oil. This i.> an Austrian trench. Come
let’s take it. * Avanti Savoia!’”
The men took up the battle cry of
the reigning house of Italy. "Avanti
Savoia! Avanti Savoia!” they cheer
ed. Meanwhile, Nurse Southwell
heroically swallowed a dose of the
castor oil and every single man of
them followed her lead.
They took the trench, but for an in
stant celebrated their victory with
wry faces. Hut even these changed
when Nurse Southwell disappeared
for an instant and reappeared with
twenty-six golden organes.
"These are the medals of honor,”
she explained.
"Cpon each of you and upon myself
1 bestow one for conspicuous brav
ery.”
ANTI-TRUST LAW
MUST BE AMENDED,
SAYS COLLEGE HEAD
(Special to Gateway by United Press)
CHICAGO, May 31.—Declaring the
Sherman Anti-Trust law should be
modified to permit business interests
to co-operate and promote, not res
train, trade, President Charles R.
Van Hise of the University of Wis
co ns in was applauded long and loud
j at the opening session of the National
Lumber Manfacturers’ convention
I here today.
The address was declared particular
| ly appropriate at this time, when
business men in all lines of American
trade are trying to have the new Fed
eral Trade relations committee given
authority to pass on co-operative con
tracts between business concerns.
They want the line drawn between
► advantageous co-operation and blight-1
ing monopoly.
President Van Hise, who went be
fore a committee of congress recently
and asked the amending of the anti
trust law to permit the lumber manu
facturers to curtail production, under
federal regulation, to a point which
would make it possible for them to
