what the Oregon Federation of Wo

fellow beings. The report covers a
large field and Observer readers can
not afford to let the opportunity slip
and not learn of the scope and th
effective means of reaching the goal,
which the federation has. ; Following

and training children to look upon
public service as au honorable occu

hoping It will Induce some of the clubs
