Edwards of the Methodist church to all who care to hear it, at the Y. M. C. A. commenc ing at 3 o'clock. ' This address rms been given a good many times by Mr. Edwards and by years of careful study and close attention to history he has become well versed in the character istics of the distinguished statesman. Interesting Theme Chosen. Tomorrow morning Rev. Ford of the Christian church will discuss the .much-mooted topic of what happens when death comes. He has given the subject much study and promises a , concise line of argument in expound ing the question. Union Meeting in Chapel. The ministers of the city have de cided to hold a union meeting in the Lane Memorial Chapel, corner First and Crook, beginning March 5th. Since the chapel serves the community and in ifunction is wholly undenomina tional, the ministers will take turns in preaching from night to night. The meetings have been arranged for at least two weeks. PULPIT HEWS Pendleton, -Feb. 26. To bring the annunl W. C. T. U. state convention to Pendleton this fall is the purpose of a movement now on here in which the W. C. T. U. organization and the Pendleton Commercial Club are co-vv- . operating. If successful, it will mean on Important convention for the 'city in October. Iast year the conven, . tion met at New-berg and 130 ffelo gatcs attended. Should the conven tion come here it is . estimated the attendance will be equally large or better. The selection of a meeting place for the state convention rests with the executive committee whioh is to meet in Portland March 6. At that time Mrs. -J. C. Woodworth, county president for Umatilla county, will present an invitation to Pendleton in behalf of the Pendleton W. C. T. U. ana tno Commercial club. Mrs. G. W D I 1 ;j t , . ' . nuns, iuuu preNiuent, is also . working on the subject. The state conventmn hnn held in Pendleton and seldom if ever nas tne convention come east of the Cascade mountains. Accordingly the claim for recognition this year will be baaed largely on the argument that eastern Oregon is entitled to the meet ing. The state convention usunlly lasts for a period of three days and tho at tendance is drawn from the various community leaders in the association's work throughout the state. CHRISTIAN SCIENCE CHURCH.

Wokingham, England, Feb. 26. This little English market town is the nation's haven for motherless and fatherless war children. Hundreds of juvenile innocents whose fathers lie buried in France have found homes here. Almost every housewife in Wo kingham has a new baby. She probably has adopted it, thanks to the war. The nuns at Wokingham convent are busy too, for every child who is old enough is a pupil at the convent school. In some cases the father is dead but the mother still lives. Little Tommy Hadley, age six, is a notable example. His father was a private in the South Lancashire regi ment and he was killed early in the war. Since that time Tommy's mother has been ill so the Children's aid So ciety sent Tommy to Wokingham. Ho has a foster mother who clothes him and gets him ready for school every morning. One of the older girl orphans calls for Tommy and other boy and girl orphans. By the time she arrives at the convent she has a happy string of changes ready for the day's lessons. Many of Wokingham s orphans whose fathers and mothers are gone are permanently installed in Wokmg- nam homes, ihey have changed their names and will grow up with "regular" fathers and mothers. Some of the children are only motherless. The fath er is still fighting somewhere in the war. If he; comes back, which perhaps he will not, the child may leave Wo kingham. But in the other event there will be a new adoption in some Wo kingham home. ' . CUSTOMER SHOWN lW THIS CITY . GET PRICES WHICH WILL BE SELF CONVINCING.
