Sidetracking every thing for the hearing on the Child Labor amendment last Tiight, Oregon's state house by 7 o'clock was alive with uquirming humanity, both men and women, shaking hand.! and panhandling first one and then another, some for and Bome !Against the amendment. ; Representative hall was crowded to the roof to hear the speakers. And when it was all over, when every soul who had anything on his system had gotten it off, moat people remained in the same frame of mind in which thev had entered the meeting. : . Like all hearings facts were buried and "sympathy and sentiment wn3 used. The man or woman with- a (hcavy voice who had the power to paint a picture that appealed I to the emotion received the applause, but strict analysis of the measure was lacking.

" This prompted the governor's message and without, doubt some such measure will at once go thiough both houses. But the governor had his ears pointed straight up, for, while sincerely endeavoring to help the wheat grower ho saw an opportunity to admonish the session to another thing. With his message on the wheat seed money ho coupled a message on the abolishment of tho Public Utili ties commission that, coming as it did entirely unexpected, caused most of the utilities lobbyists to pass'on ''from shock. The chief executive smiled as ho finished his message in wheat and then he proceeded to lambast the present Public Utilities commission in several paragraphs of well-chosen English, closing by telling the legislature to pass h law liermitting disiiict development of electric power. As he folded hi;; manuscript he looked over the large ciowd witli one df his most jovial expressions, for he wilized he had caught the boys napping and had landed a pretty heavy blow ight over the heart. ASKS FUNDS FOR CHRISTIANS IN THE NEAR EAST Hpeaklng at Hot Iake Kunday evening due to hospitality of Dr. W. 1'. i'hy, regarding the situation In the Near Kast, Miss Marie Na delhoffpr of Portland read the fol lowing telegaina Jufat received from the foreign field; "No American seeing situation would approve continual failure provide adequately for refugee camp children. Karnestly. beg you endeavor securo emergency funds to provide one meal dally during next six months for additional ten thousand of 25,000 neediest refugee camp children." Also a telegram received from J. J. Jlandsaker, Northwest Hegional Director, read as follows: "Our in ability to meet fully situation children Greek refugee camps causing most serious suffering, (lave distributed million and quar ter pieces clothing among refugees but situation now one of meeting uctual starvation. Thousands chil dren now hungry in cold Mace donian camps becoming stunted mentally, physically, also moral ly crippled by circumstances." "Could Americans suffer for one day as do our wards, the children of Christian martyrs In the Near Kast," said Miss Nadelhoffer. -'these frightful conditions need not exist." Ameiieaits Generous Near East relief was launched on a heart throb. It was motivated by pity of the A in er lean pAoplu for a persecuted race. The American people have been generous toward a great need. They have shown great confidence for; a period of eight years. Americans have hon ored that confidence by an honest tidminititrutton of their trust, which enn be attested by financial ex perts, annual reports to congress j and the books. dim: we art 10 KO on wnil I he job and continue the cure of these children to whom we have pledged suppori until maturity, we iniiKt have more money In greater quantities than ever," Miss Nadel hofier stated. ' "lb seems a small amount to iisk," suld Dr. Thy at the close of the service, "Just one meal a day for starving children and If each eison in Union county will do his Just share, perhaps we can send (hem more than that. It Is to be noted that If the people, some of whom are not very well, can do as well vs they diav this evening with generous contributions, those who are In good health can re spond equally woll."

The U3-year-old widow, a spure and withered uouiun, know n as Ahtabgeeynne, or "The Bony One." stood for three hours at the grave, barelegged and clad In a sleeve less calico .dress. At Intervals she hacked herself with the glass. In tills, Superintendent Donncr wrote, she perhaps went to extremes. "But this," he continued, "is a very old custom among these peo ple, and she, beln? a very old lady, it would huve been useleu-i to have tried to Interfere with her , belief and convictions. I want to say, however, that the custom Is not ex tensively practiced, except among real old-timers. .

THERK were few yho sliarcd the faith of the pioneers who uiulertook the de vclopment of tlie telephone. With an infant art to nourish constantly hy new discovery and invention, and handicapped hy scanty capital and pnhlic apathy, they held to their vision of a nation-wide service. Nearly two score years ago, when the telephones of the I'nited States wore fewer than those of a single New York horongh today, the business was organized essentially like the Pell System of the present. That is: a central advisory staff, a central scientific organization devoted to development and re search, a central department to promote progress in operating 1 technique, a central source of supply of standardized material, local operating companies fa miliar with local needs, and a national net-work of lines interconnecting these com panies. Telephone pioneers planned this organization structure, be lieving it necessary for efficient and economical national service. The nation's experience has proved flSe clearness of their vision.
