MANY PEOPLE Nt f D WORK While the majority of the people in Mt. Scott are com|>anatively comfort able these wintry day« there are quite a number who are in extreme distress. Moet of these people are willing to work when work can be found but owing to the severe January weather that has prevailed work was unobtainable There hasn't been much inclination to work even when one had it as the weaUier would hardly permit it. But there are a number who are in great need and unless some one come« to the rescue there will be suffering. Food, wood and clothing are needed and any one who can spare either or all will con fer a blessing on some one by placing it in the hands of people who know where to place iL If left at the Herald office it will be turned over to the neople who need it. If anyone can offer • few hours work, piling wood, shoveling snow, working in the garden, clearing land or cutting wood it will be placed with people who are in great need and must be relieved or elee suffer. Information has been received from a family of ten, man, eon. and grown-up daughters willing to work ; no food, or wood. Another family of six is out of food and wood. Father wants work, child ren under ten years ol age. Widow with three children, needs wood. Man aged 74, alone, out of money, tood or wood. Man, wife, two children and three weeks old babe; no work, money i or food. Such is the style of report that might; be continued a half column.

Proliably a hundred dairies were in the contest. Electrical power hae l>een ehut of! en tirely from all eoutheaat Portlaud eince Wednesday evening of the eecoml. All light and power lines went out about five o'clock. Since that time there hae been a big effort on the part of the Portland Railway Company to re-eetab lieh ti eir service but it wae not till four o'clock on Monday afternoon that some of the light« were again turned ou. School buildiuge all over Mt. Scott, par ticularly, were not able to resume work uutil Wednesday, just one week after the electric eervlce (ailed.

Park Trees hit Up fruit Trees Have Severe Test During the beighth of the blixsard Wednesday evening two of the largest trees in the playground, on 92d street and 53 avenue, were blown down. Aa they could not be straightened up Mr. Darnall got permission from Mr. Con- vill, park superintendent. to give the tree« to person» out of fuel. Several j>eo- ple were temporarily relieved by promptly cutting up the trees into fuel. Tha eleel eiorm of the week haa been a severe teat ou the fruit tree« all over thia section of the county, and woree further east. Apple and prune treea particularly have Buffered beyond ex- preaaion. Whole rows have been brok en oft, and scarcely a tree remaina that does not ehow evidence of hard ueage. The coat of eleet on a twig waa about ten time« aa thick aa the twig. On the large limbs it waa relatively lighter, but the axceeaive weight attained the limba to a breaking teneion, the wind added an additional etrain and down they came.

Mia« Raven hill made her investigations among the school children of Great Britain ami fonnd that moet of them lo«e from three to four hours of the sleep they should have each day, some even more. “The only way to get rid ol fatigue,” said she, “is by sleep, since fatigue is a poison caused by activity without rest. "We have frequently heard it said that change of occupation is rest, hut it is not. There ia an ad vantage in fatigue in that it warns ns when we need rest, but over-fatigue has bad effects, some times permanently bad. Just as con tinual stoking of a furnace without cleaning out the ashes causes it to burii more and more poorly, so insufficient sleep keeps ue from living as we should live. "The fatigue poison has a stimulating effect at first on the nervous system, under the influence of which boys are apt to do deeds that seem to tliem deeds of daring, which in sober momenta tney would not do. They are literally in fluenced through loss of sleep. "We must set our fares against even ing entertainments for children.

No one will question but that instinet is highly developed in the lower ani mals and most people will admit that the higher animals are intelligent, but there is much disagreement as to whether the} can reason. Morgan and Sydney Smith believed that between instinct on Uie one hand, and reason on the other, we should in sert intelligence, while Romans and others use the word intelligence m synonymous with reason. If we accept as a definition for reason a conscious knowledge of the relation between the means employed and the end attained, then we must admit that the higher animals do reason to a limited extent. In this reepect the dog and elephant occupy the top of the scale, ttie ox and sheep the bottom, the horse comee midway. "Dumb driven I cattle” have more intelligence than sheep, which appear to be about on a par with chickens. A dog belonging to a good friend of our family, occasionally calls at the back door for admittance. When the door is opeued he spends very little time enjoying his weh-ome but in lan guage that speaks louder than worth, makes hie wants known. Having at tained the object of his visit, a generous liand-out of meat, be asks to go out again to eat bis meal, seemingly con sidering it a breach of dog etiquette to eat in the bouse. Who can say that in this instance the dog has not a ‘‘conscious knowledge of the relation between the means em ployed and the end attained.”—G. H. C.
