Of course if you are too young to read,

That's rather a sweeping statement,
however, for hosts of children love to
have the stories and jingles of the child

a grandfather and grandmother whose
eyes are dim who like nothing better
than to sit aud listen to The Companion
stories and articles. Many a blind per
son and even those who in addition can
neither speak nor bear have been
cheered by The Companion, its contents
having been communicated to them
throngh the finucr-tips of friend. The
reading of The Youth's Companion is a

A GREAT REVIVAL
Our People Throng to Hear Van Marter
and Hadley
"Van" has captures the town. The
big revival meeti"gs now being bold at
the City Hall are far surpassing the
liopen of the moat sanguine, both in
point of interest and attendance. Kven
the leaders of the movement entertained
some doubt as to whether much could
be exoected durini? the first week, but!"' the voters on election day. Don't
when the crowds filled the available
seats, not only on Sunday night, but on
"blue Monday" ai Well, a genuine en
thtifia-rn gripped the people. The
meetings have already become the talk
of the town,
- Naturally, the great commanding
figure ol the great campaign is "Brother
Van, "as evangelist C. M. Van Marter
ia popularly called. At tne very Cist
service Van made good with all clas.es.
He ia dueply and genuinely religious.
The moct pious can find no fault with
him unless purchance they are num
bered among thoe who believe tha a
long face is an index lo inner purity.
Van is a bitter pill for such a fellow.
He appeals alike to the non-cburch goer
and the virile Christian by insisting that
diariplelship is a strong man's job. His
flnving of the mamby-plamby tvpe of
churchman is most mercilecs. Chriat is
his standard and he declares in no un
certain terini that to follow him will
demand the lest there is in a "live"
man. He repeatedly calls attention
to what we all recognize as a truth, viz.,
tb it a man cannot come to his best self
while he clings to habits and practices
which his better judgment pronounces
out of hiirinoney with highest type of
life.
N an's preaching is chnrar-teriaticof the
sake. It Is a tl ish of light that illumin
ates and reveals the b-unty of an old
: truth. If you want to laugh nnd grow
; better while you gruw fat hear him.
IIepth of conviction and sincerity of
....
I purpose are mighty factors in
Van's i
success. The latter attribute is fully
, reveale 1 in his '"to rm."
! He makes no contract f ra stipulated
J salary. His only request is that ho be
given what the p-ople chose to present
him with at the closj of ihe scries of
meetings. Nor does ha always pull the
wiie for big cities where returns are cor-
respondingly large. He is the regularly
appointed evangelist of the O egon con
ference of the Mettiodiat h'pisc ipal
church and has come to M. Helens as
willinir'.v hi if it were a cifv twice its nre- 1
cut sue. He is a represent .live of the
class of ministers who give money a sec- I
I ondarv nlace. realiiue that the present I
generation of laymen will adequately!
movide for the temporal needs of the
preacher who "works at his job."
Hut neither Van nor his message is
the whole attraction. St. Helena is en
joying a real treat in the solo and chorus
work of C. M. Hadlev. Mr. Hadley has
a very pleasing voice. His solos are
much appreciated. His influence on
our city will I felt long after he is gone J
by reason of the masterful training he
is giving the splendid chorus choir. The
choir already numbers fifty voices but
Mr. 1 1 ad ley hopes to increase the num-
ber to at least seventy-live.

The St. Helens Improvement Co. has
announced that on the first day of May
the price of nil unsold lots in Railroad
addition will le advanced 10 per cent.
The rapid growth of that part of St,
Helens and the certainty of other aul
stau'iiil Improvements there in ' the lii
ture justifies the in making this raise.
Until May 1st they will sell any of the
untold lota at the old price.
ATTEND THE MASS MEETING
Kvery legal yoter of the City of St,
Helens, whether registered or uot, should
attend the mei meeting to be held at
the City Hall tonight. Turn out in lull
force and show by your presence that
you are intereated in the affairs of the
cty and intend to eecure the election of
a ticket that will command the respect
united support of a great majority
stay away and then kick at the result.
We want rnen this time who will carry
on the good work and in some respect
do better than their predecessors. We
want a mayor who will not only appoint
a good man for marshal, but will 'hack
rum up when he does hi duty and put
hi iu on the carpet whenever he fails to
enforce the city ordinances The city
has gone along on the peak -easy plan
long enough. Fair warning should be
given and then every city ordinance
should be enforced without fear or favor.
Drunks thou'd be arrested and lined or
put to work upon the streets. The laws
of cleanliness ami decency should be en
forced. Gambling of all kill Is, whether
in ealoons, pool rooms, or at the ball
games, should be suppressed. But there
should be do pets. The law tnuct be
applied to all alike. And that this may
come to paes a man must be selected for
major who has the nerve to do the
work. We hope the mass meeting wiil
nominate such a nun, and that it will
adopt a platform pledging him to these
aud other needed reforms in our city
government. Make St. Helens a clean
city, both morally and physically.
NEWCOMER INVESTS HERE
Mr. Hayes Estabrook, who recently
came to St. Ileleus, evidently considers
this place a good live town and a good
place (or investment, as he has bought
one of the beat lots in R ailroad Addi

DOES ANYONE LIVE IN ST. HELENS
That does not believe the town is go

can now be bought for $100 will in a
short time be worth f XK). Don't delay
any longer and let tho other fellow
make all the prolit, but buy a lot in the
coining Addition. Make a small pay
ment down, then just a little each
month, and before you hardly reali.e it,
you will have your lot paid for. Re

will tie advanced- 10 per cent. Right

TEACHING FARMERS BY MAIL.
O. A. C. Has Correspondaisce Course ia
F arm Accounting and Business
Method
Oregon Agricultural College, Corvalli
Ore., aiarch iil The principle of mak
ing the college of direct, practical service
to every tax payer of thehtate of Oregon,
of carrying Its a-sistance and instruction
out to these who are unable to attend
the course at Corvallis, is demonstrated
in a striking manner by the Oregon
Agricultural College in its new corres
pondence course in farm accounting and
business methods, given by the school
of commerce under Dean J. A. Bexell.
One advantaga to the fanners, in
addition to the fact that it is free
lo all. is that it can be taken np at any
time, and be carried op at the conveni
ence of the ttudent, without restriction -as
to the number of months it covers.
There are already fifty students enrolled
in tlie work, and it has so attracted the
attention of the publi-hersof the bulletin
of lesson instruction that they have
envolved a plan by which Dean Bexell's
course can be offered by all the different
agricultural schools throughout the
country, adapted to each locality and its
particular ueed3.
As fast as the funds and instructional
force at the college will allow, other
ouires will be added lo ihe correspond
ence work for farmer, including a study
of rural law, and agricultural economies.
Unfortunately the legislature did not
allow the appropriatisn requested for
this work, so it can not at this time
receive the attention and development
planned for it. It is the policy of the
college, however to extend these advan-Ugi-s
to the people of the rural communi
ties of the etate as fast as resources will
permit.
TUO ISAKDS STUDY FARM BL'SIXISS MtTH
ODS
Oregon Agricultural College, Cor
vallis, Ore., March 21 That thousand
are studying farm accounting and busi-
Less methods as taught by Dean J. A.
Bexell. of the Oregon Agricultural Col
lege school of commerce is demonstrated
beyond doubt by the fact that the first
edition ol 2,000 volumes of his text on
the subject was exhausted a short time
aftivr it came from the press, and a new
edition of 4,000 copies mote thus made
necessary, to supply the demand.
From every state in the Union re
quests for copies have been received, .
several hundrod still unsatis6ed. A large
number of tlie 'agricultural colleges of
the country and the farm journals have
written Mr. Bexell of their apprecia
tion of the value of the work. Already
several high school and colleges have
adopted it as the textbook to be used in
instruction in farm business methods
and accounts.
"My aim," said Mr. Cexwell, in dis
cussing the book, has been to make the
exercises in it a practical as possible,
but no nttempt has been made to limit
the illustrations to actual experience on
any particular farm. For this reasoa
both prices and results Will vary con
siderably fr;.m actual practice. This
will not, however, reduce their illus
trative value. I have introduced many
new new labor saving devices conform
ing with the best business methods.
"The increasing interest shown in
farm accounting aud business methods
would warrant a belief that it will
shortly be introduced in the high schools
of the country as one of the regular
subjects for instruction. Surely there
is no other more eadly neglected, and
none more worthy of attention. I (hall
be grateful for any suggestions or criti- '
cisms from farmers or teachers who be
come acquainted with my book, as they
w ill greatly aid me in the preparation
of future editions."

Mr. J. II. (irillis, the well known
contractor and builder, has bought two
desirable lots in Railroad Addition
and states that during the spring or sum

St. Helens needs, and the only drawback
to newcomers settling here is that there.
