Woman Suffrage Association - (ills Attention to Conditions WMcli it , - . Present Exist. The following is from an address de livered by Anna Shaw at the recent meeting of the Association at Portland. ' "When the cry of race suicide is -heard men arraign women for race decadence, it would be well for them to examine oonditione and causes and base their at tacks upon firmer foundations of fact Instead of attacking women for their in terest in public affairs and relegating S.m tn fHair nhiMron thmr kitr.han. and their church, they will learn that the kitchen ie in politics; that the children's physical, intellectual, and moral well being ie controlled and regulated by law; that the real cause of race decadence is not the fact that fewer children are horn but the more fearful fact that, of those born, so few live; not primarily the n lect of the mother, but the neglect of men themselves of their duty as citizens and public officials. If men hsnestty desire to prevent the causes of race decadence, let them examine the accounts of food adulteration, and learn that from the effect of impure milk alone, in one city 6600 babies died in a eingl year. Letthem examine the water supply, so impregnated with disease that in some cities there is con tinual epidemic of typhoid fever. Let them gaze upon the filthy street from which perpetually arises contagion of scarlet fever and diptheria. Lst them vAaiimi. wi piub. ui uur great ciues,' ana find city after city, with no play-places for children, except the streets, ajleys and lanes. Let them examine the school buildings, many of them are badly lighted unsanitary and without yards. Let them turn to the same cities, that from five to a score of a thousand children secure only half-day tution because there are not ad equate school house facilities. Let them watch these half-day children playing in 'the streets and alleys and viler places, until they have learned the lessons which take them to ever-growing numbers of reformatories, whose inmates are in creasing four times as rapidly as the pop ulation. Let them follow the children who survive all these ills of early child LA GRANDE PUBLIC SCHOOL Murrel Childers has enrolled in the High School. The new class in book keeping has nearly SO students enrolled. Mr. Kilpatrick visited the North Side School recently. Lou E. Wenham of the Observer was in attendance at the teachers' meeting Saturday. Miss Boorey and Georte Currey have returned to their work after an illness of several weeks. The new report cards for the lest half of the year will be issued to the children Feb. 6. Miss Bean, of the Old Town, hae en tered the book keeping class in the High School. The honor roll for the month of January will appear in this paper next Monday evening. Miss Harris of the A fifth grade was absent last Thursday on account of ill ness. Since thrre-adjustment of pupils after the recent promotions, following is the enrollment by teachers: The new High School song books have arrived, and as a result the music of tb,e morning exercises is much improved. The State University Qlee Club is booked for this city Feb. 14. It is under stood that the club will be tendeied a - re ception while fcere, A teachers' quartette and solos by Miss Williams and Mrs. Martin provided the musio for the county teachers' meeting last Saturday. A type-writing class has been organ ized in the High School for the study of touch type writing on the standard key board. Misses Hopper, Wilson, Gulling. Clements and Love are members of the class. Misses Frances and Floy Masses of Walla Walla. Washington, will enter the High School next week and take up work with the sophmores. These young ladies are sisters of the O. R.& N. express agent whose parents are to take up their resi dence in this city in the near future. The city kachere' meeting wis held at its regular time with every teacher hood, unti) they enter the sweatshops and factories, and behold they are maimed, dwarfed and blighted little' ones, 500.000 of them under fourteen years of age are employed., in these pestilential places. Let them behold the legalized saloons and the the dens of iniquity where so many of the voting-population spend the money that should be used in feeding, housing and caring for their children. Thn. if hK m.ntnrs of women's teluhs and mothers' meeting do not find sufficient cause for race degeneracy' where they have power to control Conditions, let them turn to lecturing women. It ie infinitely more important that a child should should be well born and well reared, that that more children shall be born. It ie better that one well-born child shall live than that two shall be born and one die' in in fancy. That which is desirable is not What the greatest possible number of children should be born into the world; the "The great fear that the participation of women in public affairs will impair the quality and character of the home service is irrational and contrary to the tests of experience. Does an intelligent interest in me aaucauonor a cm Id render a woman less a mother? Does the housekeeping instinct of a woman, manifested in a de sire for clean streets, pure water, and unadulterated food, destroy her efficiency as a home-maker? Does a desire for an environment of moral and civic purity show neglect of the highest good of the family? It is the 'men must fight and the women must weep' - theory of life which makes man fear that the large service of woman will impair the high ideal of home; The newer ideal, that men must cease fighting and thus remove our prolific cause for woman's weeping, and that they shall together build up a more per fect home and a more ideal government. is infinitely more sane and desirable. Par ticipation in the larger and broader con cams of the state will increase instead of decrease the efficiency of motherhood and tend to develop that self-control that more perfect Judgement, which is want- in much of the home training of today. New York Evening Post, present Mr. Snider made the chief talk or the meetins on "Utaratura " Mr Bragg favored the teachers with a few timely remarks. The next regular meet ing will occur February 25.

Occasionally parents send word of rudeness to which they have been sub jected at the hands of school children on the way to and from school Nothing would please the managemeit of the school more than to put a stop to this, and we shall indaed be grateful if any one seeing or suffering such rudeness will kindly learn the names of the offenders and report them to the office of the super intendent Investigation of these cases usually reveal the fact that there ie little or no control of the child and as a result his hoodlum tendencies are encouraged. It may be added that children between the ages of 8 and 14 who are not in school can be forced in by filing complaint through the district attorney, a thai parent is guilty of criminal negligence if . he does not keep his child in schcol.
