LODGES RESUME WORK
After a delightful rest from
ritualistic work, Adah Chapter,
No. 31, 0. E. S., held a pleasant
meeting last Tuesday evening.
During the social hour, old
friendships were renewed and
marjy vacation experiences ex
changed.
The same evening the Odd
Fellows and Rebekahs held their
first meeting of the season and
participated in a splendid ban
quet.
The evening hours were filled
with much whole-souled good
fellowship.
CRABS CO TO NEWPORT
Tuesday evening the members
of the Crab Club went to New
port for an outing.
These trips have become annu
al events with the Crabs, and
the true spirit of clubdom is thor
oughly entered into when these
outings are made resulting in the
merriest time of the season.

tain-side,
Shimmering far and fair?"
Evidently the jolly old Frost
King has been busy with his
magic wand, and the sylvan
Bcenes are changed from their
once verdant appearance to a
riot of hues shading from golden
to the deepest brown, and when
the weather is favorable many
motor and hiking parties sally
forth to enjoy the invigorating
Autumnal beauties.
Recent rains have compelled
devotees of the racquet game to
move in their nets and we hear
no more the familiar sound of
"lov games" for these clubs
have been metamorphosed into
those who look to the Terpaicho
rean art for recreation, and now
they are pivoting and dipping in
doors, and perchance there may
yet develop love games, for Cu
pid nay lurk near with a net of
his own wea ing, but their scores
will not be called so loudly as
they once were from the tennis
courts.
WOMEN'S CLUBS
The State Federation of Worn
en's Clubu has just closed a most
enthusiastic and successful meet
ing with Mrs. Sarah Ann Evans,
president.
The civic department of the
general federation has just sent
out an interesting and moat sug
gtsuve mtie leatiet which says
in part: "No matter what cou-se
of study your ciub purauts, it
can easily add a lew civic tui sea
to its program, create a civic ce-
partment ana have one or more
civic days each season. It can
eusily do a few things to make
jour town a better town to live
in.
"Some of the things your club
can do: Provide public play
grounds, open the Bchool houses
as social centers for public recre
ation and discussion; improve the
sanitation of the town by attend
ing to its garbage collection,
keeping its streets and alleys
clean and free from tlies; urging
sewer and water systems, if there
are none; provide for the teach
ing of citizenship and morals in
your public gchwls; improve your
Bloving pictures.
"Some of the things your club
can study: The condition of
women and children in industry;
the laws which govern women
and children; what women have
done with the ballot; municipal
rovwioti for puuuc recreation;
public health aud public utilities;

A pleasant gathering of friends
and co workers assembled at the
Methodist church parlors last
Monday evening to welcome into
our midst Pastor Stewart and his
family.
A most enjoyable program to
which representatives from all
the churches contributed, was in
formally rendered, followed by a
social hour. Delicious fruit
punch and dainty wafers were
served from tables embowered
with brilliant Autumn foliage
and deep crimson dahlias, the
same flower shading from pink
to the deeper tones, combined ef
fectively with greenery, gave an
air of charm to the altar.
The entire occasion was
fraught with much real pleasure.

BIRTHDAY RECEPTION
To celebrate the birthdays of a
trio of its members, consisting of
Mesdames Knox, Mattison and
Hyers, the Methodist Ladies' Aid
gathered at the church halls last
Thursday evening and indulged
in merry-making until a late
hour.
The members, who are reputed
to be culinary artists, fully sus
tained their merited reputations
in preparing this birthday repast,
which consisted of a bounteous
supply of the market's best.
Besides the birthday cakes
we are not informed as to the
number of candles the tables
wero prettily decked with the
rimson foli.'ige of Virginia creep
er, which blended its coloring so
beautifully with the seasonable
blossoms which were used in ev

The hours passed so happily
that one could not realize the

remarkable that the third should have
been his successor, the Illustrious Leo

THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH
BEN C. CROW, Pastor.
" The second in the series of Mr. Crow's
sermon on the Great Teaching of the
Bible will be given this Sunday night,
the subject being "The Authority of
Jesus Chriat." We invite everyone in
tereited in the Bible and the church to
hear these outline. A special pre
pared song rervice will begin promptly
at Bven-thirty at the close of which
the choir will render "Hear My
Prayer" by Amina Smith, for the first
tim. At the morning hour the ser
mon will b "Leaning on Jesus" and
the anthem is Brackett' "Yet the
Spirit Linger."
At ten o'clock we again expect a
great Bible School session. We w anl
you and everyone not attending elsewhere.
Not a few persons habitually resort
to the use of the palm of the glove
as a receptacle fur carfare or railway
tli kets, and now the glovemaker has
come to the rescue with a glove In
which there Is n regularly constructed
pocket In the pnlm, with a locking flap
to guarantee the safety of anything
that may be placed therein. The
pcket Is placed on the Inside of the
pnlm, so that Its presence is not the
least unsightly and would be entire
ly unknown were it not for the fact
that the little buttoned flap extends
through the regular opening of the
glove. When tills flap Is opened and
turned back the interior of the pocket
Is easily reached. The Invention la
that of a woman residing In Massachusetts.
W. C. T. U. NEWS
By Mrs. Lucy L. Whiteaker
The Union met as plam.ed at the last
meeting with Mr. Stansberry, called
to order by the vice-president, Mrs.
Tapscott, who led the devotional and
acted as president in the absence of
Mrs. Morgan. Mrs. Kurre took Mrs.
James' office a secretary, she being
too tick to atten 1 the meeting. Other
unavoidably keot away sent In their
select readings and clippings from our
state papers, helping to make the pro
gram complete. Letter and report
were read and cared for. Mr. Mor
gan's report of hr work was very en
couraging and we were glad to know
she would soon be with us and give ua
a full account of her absence. New
and unfinished busines was kept for
next week's meeting, which will be
held at the home of Mrs. Peter Kuree,
it being the most central place for those
living at a distance. All are made
welcome at our meeting on Monday
afternoons at 2:30.
The children's Sunday afternoon tem.
perance meeting waa not spoiled by
the bad weather or sickness of some of
its important officers. Mr. Agnew
rang the bell and called the meeting to
order, Mrs. Whiteaker filling the office
of superintendent. New songs were
si ng and Miss Marie Denny led the
singing and was elected organ"st for
the quarter. Mrs. Bell, a new comer
and a White Kibboner, was present
and offered to assist In the children's
work, which wag gratefully received.
Responsive reading from the hymnal,
and ;i U gson on health from The Young
Crusader wa given in the absence of
the usual lesson helps. The weather
being unfavorable for picture taking,
it whs thought best to postpone the
L. T. L. pieture till Bettled weather and
the sick ones able to be present. One
new member and some that had been
absent, a long time were present and
ready for work. All r welcome.
WHY A REPUBLICAN
WONT SUPPORT HAWLY
Frederick Hollister of Coos Bay is
every ounce a l ustier and doer. That
is why the Tid igs is for him for con
gress. LaFol tte's magazine refers
to Hawley as 8 "ME TOO" congress
man. His record Dears it out. ihat
sort of representation never gets any
where. Men who do things pay no at
tention to passive, negative men.
Live ones like to work with live ones.
The first district of Oregon is one of
the few congres sional districts in Amer
ica now that ;s represent d by a dead
one. That is why the Tjdings is against
Hawley. We are for Hollister in Bpite
of his politics. We wish he was a re
publican, but we are determined not to
sacrifice results for partisanship. Hol
lister will represent well the first dis
trict. There is very little politics left
in Oregon. Thit is well. Let's go af
ter practical favors rather than party
advantage. Hollister for congress ana
