It recalls the pleasure you gave me by your singing. Your voice, trained as it is. gives you a rare power to add to the happiness of others, and I hope you will find your talent a source of profit as well as enjoyment If I may be pardoned for giving a word of Advice, prompted by my interest in your welfare, I Venture to sugffest that you do not allow yx- enmusiasm for3 music to lead you to slight the funda mental things. First, take exercise. The body must be strong and youth Is the period during which strength is accumulated. Second, do not neglect your studies. No matter what special talent one has he needs a broad education for it to rest upon. A talent is but a hill if It stands upon a base of ignorance; it is a mountain peak if it rises from a 'high intellectual level. Third, the heart is more important than the head: out of it issues life. Character is the power of endurance in man. It is built upon religion. It requires more than a hundred books to train the mind; one, the Bible, Is sufficient to train the heart. In return for the compliment you paid me In sending me your picture, I shall send you a little volume of my own. "The Making of a Man" may give you some sug gestions of value. With every good wish I am very truly your, W. J. BRYAN. FIRE HAZARDS LOCATED Storage of Gasoline Menaces Ore gon City Property. OREGON" C1TT, Or., Dec. 6.

The new recreation programme Is to be two-fold, covering: industrial and home- districts. Music, athletics, dramatics and dancing will be the primary base of the plan. "If investigation of the recreatitn situation in any neighborhood or fac tory shows that there are organiza tions to cope with the problem, the work of the Comunity service will be to learn the needs of that community and serve as a co-ordinating body by bringing these needs to the attention of existing agencies," said Mr. Ar burv. lf, however, there are no agencies ready we will then initiate our own recreation programme. But we shall be careful never to duplicate or compete with the work of another, organization." Development 1 ProeeeUlnj-f.

The offices are at 436 Northwestern Bank building. "The dual programme of Cummun Hy service may be illustrated by two examples," said Mr. Arbury.- "In neighborhood work our activity at the Thompson school will serve as a model. Here, at the request of the Pa rent-teacher association of the school, we have assisted in the or ganization of the community sur rounding the school for recreation and closer association. Meetings ar held weekly in the schoolhouse, at which entertainment is furnished en tirely by the community. Succms of Plan Shown. "Whether the entertainment be musical, dramatic or athletic, the par ticipants are the people of the com munity. Thus they are developing themselves, amusing themselves, and becoming better acquainted. That the plan is successful Is indicated by the fact that in this small district 250 people are regular attendants at the meeting and the number is constantly growing. To the present features will be added dancing, it is hoped, and other amusements the community may desire." All communities are free to call upon Community service for assist ance in such self -organization, Mr. Arbury announced. The service ot the entire staff, including Walter Jenkins, the dynamic song leader, will be placed at the disposal of any community. In this way it is hoped that Community service may assist in hastening the enrichment of com munity life, and furnish the city with more vital amusement than that of the commercial theater or dancehalL ciaT.) The deputies from the state fire marshal's office here to conduct a fire survey of the city said they have found risky gasoline and electric fire hazards. They said several per sons are storing on their premif.es as much as 50 gallons of gasoline on top of the ground, whereas the state law will permit only the keeping of five gallons of gasoline in such exposed condition. They state also that they have found a good many houses which are exposed to fire risk through faulty electric wiring. Deputy Harold Sykes is visiting various schoolrooms and giving talks to the children on fire protection and fire prevention. As a result of this work the high school has organized a fire team. Principal V L. Arant announced. SEATTLE PARK BONDS UP Proposal Tor $750,000 Issue May Go Before A'oters. SEATTLE, Wash., Dec. 6.
