Something of both, much of the best of both, I almost fancy any of its residents would say. As a newcomer from the country, indeed, before that from the old coun try, these wide spreading, beautiful suburbs seem to come near realizing the rdeal developed by Kbeneaer A Howard aeverai decades back, in bis book "Garden Cities of Tomorrow." To every thoughtful man the in creasing drift from the land to the towns and the increasing tendency towards artificiality, unreality and dissipation, slongsidr of overcrowding, want and preventible disease. In the cities present a challenge to discover the right remedy to offset their evil results, if unchecked. Someone in the old dismal slums of the eities in England, having realised the healthier, simpler and more nat ural life of the country, asked “Why are not these dtiee built out In the country ?" and so, of course, they are, but mankind is an adept In destroying natural amenities when bent on pro viding the artificial, especially when the pursuit of profit ia his chief urge. In the “garden city” Idea it waa shown how, with far less tax burden, towns and even big cities could be made to combirw the advantages of both city and country, given that the land could be possessed by the community at about agricultural value, and all subsequent accretions to its value, due to improvement, and also due to, Ito being the dwelling and working place of a community, should bo sreure-i forever to the public, the' people, who. of course («xcept the| idle drones), produce them by their( I labor—including thought, skill and devotion.

Some, living in small towns, hsvo endeavored to arrange “Farmers’ Rest," and civic centers for welcoming strangers, but the hurry, the self centered joyride" spirit that drives the swarm of automobiles to which we look for a means of bridg ing the gulp tertween rural and urban life, have postponed the harvest of good that should have been gathered. My object is to commend the many noble individuals, both in towns and in the country, in every walk of life, and the busy people who find time for kindly words and deorbi. who un ostentatiously exemplify that ancient end primal duty of social mankind by which “some have entertained angels, unawares.” I would suggest a wider social effect. On account of the rush from the towns moat country families in our state have a relative or a friend some where in the suburbs of Portland that they have not seen lately. If they manage to spend their vacation by taking a trip in their automobile and arrive by the Columbia or some other highway late at night, aa I have done, to go Into the city and be directed to the auto camp, is a poor welcome unless their friend happens to be near. There are in all these suburbs many little oases of green wood, even close along the main routes of automobile traffic, such as Powell Valley and Footer roads. Division and Eighty- second streets, Woodstock and Forty fifth avenue, in our particular region. Why not arrange and let it be known that these could be utilised by sutuists from the country on arrival in Portland, just as they are ac customed to camp along Ute road side at sundown, often prefering this to the free camp grounds provided by many towns. Ths objections and how to meet them will be handled In the next issue. RUS IN URBE. FINE FOURTH OF JULY GRAM OUTLINED PRO Cool, inviting shade, a safe place with plenty, of fun for the children. Track meet, stunts and ballgames for everyone, fires to toast your weiners over, tables where you can spread your picnic supper. That is what Lenta’ park has for you on the Fourth of July. A children’s parade—open to all children under 15—begins the fun at 2 P. M. Entries for the parade will gather in the southwest corner of the park at 1:30. Various prizes are offered: Funniest costume, sack pea nuts; best boy’s costume, agwtc marbles; best girl’s costume, string of bcaihi; best costumed group of two or more, big box of cookiee; best float —anything on wheels—one dozen bananas.

The prises have been donated by public-spirited eitisena of Lents. At least three baseball and indoor games have been planned for the afternoon. Bring your picnic baskets with you and enjoy the weiner roast in the eve ning. The thanks of the district exhibit committee are due those who So gen erously contributed flowers for the rose exhibit held in connection with the Rose Festival Just closed. That Lenta should be at the bot tom of the list was a matter of keen regret to the committee, end reused a hard fall to the civic pride of that body. Yet the experience was not wholly without its compensations. Ono point most forcibly brought home to those in charge was that every' grower should know at least his own varieties, that the committee, if not familiar with all kinds, may not be dependent on the experts st the show rooms for identification of the blooms. Another fact learned at this time was that the rose eulturist who would win in this competition will not wait until just before the show, but will begin now to get his bushes in shape for the most perfect blooms. There is no good reason why just as fine roses may not be grown1 in Lenta as in Gresham or Portland Heights or any other section. Lot os get busy and «how what can be done hare. NAVY RESUMES ENLISTMENTS WHAT THE KLAN SAYS FOR ITSELF Laat night Dr. Sawyer wound up his campaign in Corvallis in behalf of the Ku Klux Klan, says the Cor vallis Gasette-Times. He was ad vertised to discuss the congressional investigation of the Klan, but he re ferred to it very briefly and did not say what the result of the investiga tion was. He described the hearing, picturing scornfully the doxen or so negroes on one side of the committee, the same number of Catholic Knights on the other side, and another group of “fat, sleek, bench kneed Sheenies.” The result of the investigation, he said, was published by the Klan in book form and “offered to the news papers of the country for the small sum of $20 and none of them took advantage of the offer.” The reason, the speaker said, was that the press of the country is all controlled by the Catholics “through its foreign master in Rome.” Ne Investigation Inasmuch as a number of people paid their money last night to hear what the result of the investigation waa and failed to hear, the G.-T., at the risk of anathema by its master at Rome, states that the official record of the Klan shows that no congressional investigation was held, it being decided on the preliminary testimony that congress had no par ticular jurisdiction as nothing had come before it which in any way The prelimi- concerned that body, nary testimony wae the reault of ex- poaures of the Klan by the New York World which was afterwards awarded the thousand dollar Founda tion prise for doing so on the ground that it waa “the moat distinguished public service performed by any news paper in the United States in 1921.” The preliminary testimony given to decide whether or not congress should investigate, showed that the imperial wizard had collected $1,250,000 from his subjects of the invisible empire and that the wizard and some woman had spent a large part of It. Inas much aa there waa no law to prevent them spending it, the committee de cided it waa none of its business and declined to bring in a rule ordering a congressional invest! ga- tion. So, none was had. Much of the lecturer’s time last night wss devoted to roasting the news editor of the Gazette-Times who wrote the report of the Wednes day night meeting.
