While not all of tho addresses given are recorded here, owing to the f ict that It was deemed by the speakers thai there was not sufficient development of their plana to wtrrant a newspa per article, the Observer takes pleas ure in giving belov- ihose article which have been contributed as follows: . Child Welfare Work (By Mrs. F. C. Schllke) The Observer has asked for copy of speech mad. at the Ad club luncheon, and since it Is not possi ble to reproduce an impromptu speech without remodeling it to such an extent as to make it unrecog nizaule , and besl'len to. cover all points alluded to at that lime wouW require more space than allowed, 1 would like tu mention a few points concerning tin ringing of the curfev and the enforcement thereof. It is to he reg'e'ted that ever since Adam ate the apple In the Gar den of Eden and phued the blame for his transgression on Kve. we have been prone to lay the responsi bility of our own negligence on tli shoulders of some oi.e else, and us Pally in the lire of lenst resistance. Heforo going I'uyher, I wish to state that when no aliening parents'. 1 do not menu all parents, but par ents who are easily pirked oat in any community And, wlilie they may not be aware of it, .in fiequont topic i for discussion ani"lv- the class o! people workin:: for iht betterment ot humanity, and a brij.bt and sbinili". target lor the flossipi r. In all lines of Child Welfare Work, we rind this Cass ! parents shirk ing parental responsibility, We ilc not boar of p rents taking any blamn for tho falluie of their children to 'pass a ' sat isfaetocy examination in school. I bold, that a normal eliild placed in the grade to which lie belongs, it is n:ver the fault of the child. It may bo the fault of tin teacher and Ii might possibly he the. fault of tho parent who does not re quire the child to have tho p-ofe-amount of sic u) i"ul eat the mer'sh lug food . so e.wenitai to his mental and physical well being. It is not uncommon to henr. ou reporting the tardiness of a child ' Well I sent him In time: it Is not my fault if he did not get there.' Whose fault is ii? Wo have a curfew ordinanee'which Sas'3 that the enrfow shall be rung nt a certain hour and all boys and girls under IS yeais or age must be oTf tho streets at that lime unless ac companied by some older person. We are frequently met" with this reques' "Please do not urge the j inning o' ,tbe curfew unless they enforce it." Webster defines "they"' as the plural of he-siie-ur-U. The question arises who are they? - The city officials are supposed to attend to the ringing of the ruifew j is it possible that we are willing loi shift all parental responsibility am' j require two or three policemen to! make a whirlwind campaign througl Ihe city eveiy evening and run our 1 nines urounu.

Within the personal knowleilge of the white man the springs of Hot Luke have been flowing since 1N04, ,o.- about a hundred and fifteen years and presumably for many years be fore ih.it time. There is no apparent : record of any change in the flow of thy springs, either as to tempeiuture or volume. Hot J.ake passed into pirate own ; crship in the early sixties im was (owned tor many years by two bache liiis, Messrs. Clark and Newhard. ;Clark, who was the elder, became an invalid and was finally taken hthI j cared for nt the home of Mr. and Mrs. 1 Timothy Kllis, great-grandparents of i Mrs. R. ,T. Green of this city. The Kl lis homestead was but a few miles from the lake and is now the home of Albert Krouse. Clark died in 1H7S and the partnership interests went to Mr. Newhard. j Although the hike building and its accessories were let out under lease n time or two the proprietorship of 'Mr. Newhard was continuous up to ' ivumt twenty years ago. Mr. New Ihard died in Portland but n few ! months ago at n very advanced age. J Efforts were made about thirty years ago. through what was ascribed ja't the time to the meddling officious iness of an outsider, to bring into ques ,tion tin title to n large portion of the lands around Hot Lake and even to the lake property itself, based on the : ''Mvamp" character of the lands. The ! proceedings Went so far its to threaten a contest, but nothing came of it in the end. j A promotion scheme in the way o' .commercializing Hot Lake was organ I i.cd in INS". An incorporated com pany in which Mr. Newhard held a considerable share of stock, wits or j'unized. The real intention was t appropriate Hot Lake as n means of boosting' l.a (t ramie, and for this pur pose it was proposed to build a Inrge hotel and health report in l.a (Jrnnde and supply the institution with the n::tural hot ntinteral water pumped through a pipe line from the lake. The rcheme fell through. There wer very few artificial changes made In the contour of the h.Iu' during Mr. N'ewhard's ownership Tides, three or four feet high, grew around the edges of the water. It was very common for persons, such as horsemen tiding in the vicinity, t' use the bullrushes for a dressing room nil picking out a place where the temperature was suitable, take ; plunge in the lake in broad daylight rehabilitate and ride on. j No objection was offered to such procedure, although the Newhard ; building maintained two wooden tubr and over the d;or 01 the southern en trance stood for years the painted sign: !
