SOCIETY (Continued from Fag 3.) (or the purpose of witnessing dally routine work and recreation of the children. Durln8 the drive from Sa lem one's eyes are greeted with scenery of magnificence. White capped mountains looming above the eastern horizon, snow covered foot hills and vast expanse of beautiful, verdant valley lands; all In their pur ple shadows. From an Imposing Colonial en trance, one Is ushered into adminis tration building which contains re ception room, physician's office, dis pensary department, superintendent's private apartments, dining rooms for officers and employees, industrial work rooms, kindergarten, school room and assembly hall. The last (our rooms and the corridors were profusely decorated with great bou quets of field flowers and foliage. The children In fresh white dresses, shiny boots and bright ribbons showed perfect care from their at tendants. The basement floor is used for In mate's dining room, storage and bak ery. The kitchen being built out (rom the first floor above the bakery. Although these rooms are immacu lately clean, there Is great need for something new In the form of a kitchen; and of still more Importance Is a safe and sane bakery. It Is in stantly apparent that danger of fire lurks in this portion of the institu tion, for uncovered wooden beams above a cracked oven are not condu cive to best protection. Everything about this building is spotless and the employees clean and careful. The same care and sweet smelling atmos phere pervades Benson cottage, the home for women and girls. In this building there are Inmates from five years old to eighty three all are called children; receiving constant care and attention. The homes for men and boys are Jones and Steele cottages. In all details these are conducted In the same manner. The work of developing the minds of these unfortunate and dependent be ings who are backward and feeble minded, but not entirely without brain, is being successfull carried out by Miss Louise Hayse. Under her guidance women and girls were busy with all kinds of plain sewing, darning, patching, cross stitching on couch pillows, making and dressing rag dolls, drawn work, French em broidery, basketry and torchon lace. At these lace pillows three young women were tossing the bobbins in rapid manner developing a pattern by placing the pin in the proper spot with an accuracy truly remarkable. All of these workers attended strict ly to their tasks and answered the guests Intelligently, questions con cerning their work. In this depart ment boys were making hammocks, fly nets, tennis nets and baskets In the same excellent manner. One boy be ing particularly rapid with his nee dle, forming the knots in a hammock with unvarying precision. The re sult of trained hands is remarkable; but the developing of brains that are apparentlv vacant, Is wonderful. In this work Miss Maud .Stewart, prin cipal of the institution, is instructor. Boys and girls gave examples of reading from English history text hooks, with minds concentrated upon the words before them. Nothing of parrot like repeating. Many of the children following lines with Index fingers as guide; and in articulating they were easily understood. There was oral spelling and words of three syllables written upon a black board in attractive lettering, besides the pu pils names written above their work. As to simple arithmetic and use of the clock's dial, these children were equally well informed. Miss Blalock, with Infinite patience teaches the youngest children games and songs of kindergarten work. There was. no commotion for In this department as in all others, disci pline In the kindest manner was ob served. After the routine of work, Miss Stewart presented a class of 4 NOTRE DAME LADY'S APPEAL To ill knowing aofferera of rheumatism, whith er muicnUr ot ot Uw Joints, sciatica, lunbatcoa, backacba, pain In the klduejii or neuralgia palm, to write to her for a home treatment which haa repeatedly cored all of theae tortures.

Dr. Smith with an enviable reputa tion as physician in Salem for many years, although recently appointed head of the Institution. ha (inn a much for Its improvement. A poul try ranch has been established and already there are one thousand chickens. A well Is being drilled; a thousand rods of wire fencing laid and a four thousand dollar cow barn nas Deen contracted for. Were sufficient runds available, much needed permanent walks would be laid and a very necessary hospital erected. At present there is no place provided for contagious di seases and If such became epidemic, results might be disastrous. In ap propriating twenty-five thousand dol lars for a new building, the legisla ture quite overlooked the inadequacy of the small amount appropriated for the maintenance of the school during the coming two years. Two hundred inmates have filled the Institution to capacity limit; between sixty and seventy are already on the waiting list. The appropriation of last legisla ture will build a girls' dormitory. Although regular visiting hours are from ten until twelve In the morn ing and from two until four In the afternoon, Sundays are excepted, the door is always open to the public.
