She briefly outlined the origin of music in Amer ica, which is the youngest nation in music, but progressing as fast musi cally as in other ways.

McClintock, in West Roseburg, Tuesday when Mr. McClintock enter tained about forty members of the Young People's Bible Class of the Methodist Church, of which he is the teacher. The entertainment was an unique feature of the occasion and included a very pleasing program se lected from Burns. Miss Ethel Yates gave a very interesting biography of that famous author,, and Miss Leila Lents delighted the gathering with two readings from Burns. Miss Ella Dickerson contributed a number of epitaphs taken from his writings, and Miss Adeline Stewart read selections from Burns.

Gambling has now been abolished by the American Government. Another bad trait given was inaction. The Filipinos make make plans bt fail to execute them until the final mo ment, nutting them off until too late. The prevailing vitures were hospi tality and equal rights for men and women. All the people are taught from infancy to be hospitable and kind to strangers, and the women, unlike those of many other nations, enjoy the privilege of voting. Mr. I Gonzales continued with a review or: the industrial, political and educa-. tional conditions.. To explain these he cited the resources nnd the lack of needed capital for development. Education, he stated, was as far ad-1 vanced in the islands as in most in-1 'dependent countries, less than 20 per cent being illiterate, a census taken j before the passing of a compulsory i education act. English is taught in i every-public school and the attitude of the people is very favorable to the United States. The government of the Islands was discusssed and the speaker pointed out how the people practically gov ern themselves, choosing the Mem bers of their own legislative bodies. Before closing the speaker made a very strong plea for the indepen dence of the Philippines. He said that although everyone revered and liked this country, they wished to work out their own salvation and were capable of self-government, as proved by the present condition of affairs. He thought that a neutrality treaty signed by all the great nations would insure them protection, and if not, they would do their best and be prepared to accept the worst. He offered advisable reasons for the pro posed independence, among them be ing the great distance 'between this country and the islands and the dif ferent race of people which inhabits them. He stated truly that this gov ernment had enough race problems to deal with now, and that indepen dence was the dearest wish of every Filipino. Mr. Gonzales offered to answer any questions in which the members of the club were interested, and ' told something of the musical and social life of the Filipinos. Native musi cal instruments, he said, are made Quick Cold Reliefn is usually found through the prompt ailmintatrntinn of a mildlv laxative, dispersive tonic one that will scat ter the wuammauon, remove me waste, and help Nature to bujld up resistance.
