COUNCIL MEETS
Matters of Importance
Receive Attention
All members wore present at
the regular meeting of tlu city
council Tuesday evening, with
Mayor Llredoson presiding.
Several remonstrances were re
ceived against the assessment
of cost of the improvement of
Fessendun street between Cen
tral avenue and Oswego street,
claiming the assessments to he
in excess of one-half of the valu
ation of the property. Referred
to the city attorney.
A petition was received for the
improvement of Willamette boul
evard between Hurlington street
and St. Johns avenue by con
crete pavement, cement side
walks with 18 foot curbing, atid
u resolution was ordered drawn
directing the engineer to pre
pare the necessary data for such
improvement.
Several citizens complained of
defective sidewalks on North
Jersey street between Fessenden
and Catlin streets, and asked
thut council start proceedings
for new cement walks. The coin
plainunts stated thut the walks
were now in a dangerous condi
tion. Referred to the engineer
and street committee.
The 0. W. H. and N. Co. de
clined to plank the railroad
trucks between the rails on Brad
ford street, us requested by the
city council. It was decided that
the recorder then request the'
company to place cinders be
tween the rails, as it was incon
venient and somewhat danger
ous for loading and unloading
freight in its present condition.
. , A. communication from the W.
C. T. U. ladies asked that coun
cil pass a resolution prohibiting
tho wearing of X-ray gowns in
the city, und surprised the dads
by decluring thai, several hail al
ready made their appearance
upon tho local streets. The mat
tor was referred to tho chief of
police, who blushingly accepted
the responsibility of an investi
gation. A slight chongo was asked for
in the proposed franchise for a
sidetrack on the O. V. H. and
N. Co. on Bradford street be
tween Philadelphia and Alta
streets, which was roferred to
the city attorney.
Tho health and police commit
tee reported adversely on the
proposed oxtenson and expan
sion of the police alarm system,
deeming same unnecessary at
this time. Report sustained by
council.
Upon suggestion of the mayor,
it was decided to solicit sites for
nark purposes. Any one having
land suitublo for park purposes
is directed to state bona tide
prlco and give description of
the property and forward same
to Mayor Bredeson in a sealed
envelope not later than Septem
ber 15th.
It was decided that tho St.
Johns Water Co. be notified to
place larger water mains onCrnw
ford street before hard surfacing
of tho street is started.
Owing to a depleting treasury,
it was decided to discontinue
the cutting of weeds in the city
and proceed to collect for the
work done.
An ordinance regulating and
suppressing tho use of liquor in
cigar stores, pool rooms and
other niaces of amusement was
passed.
An ordinance providing for
insuring members of the fire
department received first read
ing and was held over for fur
ther consideration.

The Park Question
Editor Review: The question
of parks is again being agitated
in our city. 1 want to change the
name and call them children's
play grounds, hoping the change
in nume will, perhaps, change
the idea of what we really want.
The old idea of a park is a grand
scenic plat of ground, with a
grand stand for the brass band.
encircled by a broad driveway
for the carriages and prancing
steeds, and a sign, "keep oil the
grass." Tho modern idea is a
playground with trees and grass
and bull grounds und swings and
chute the chutes und trupese of
various kinds thut delight the
heart of the child, with u swim
ming, or at least, a wading
pond. These grounds need not
be large- two or three acres Is ,
large enough, if there tire enough I
of them. I wish there was a law
compelling every person platting
a city or an addition to dedicate
ut least 10 per cent for play
grounds.
It is not necessary to enumer
ate to the intelligent people of
St. Johns the benefits a child re
ceives from fresh air and exer
cise, ii is cnougu 10 say una a
child is just as much entitled to
u proper play ground us he is to
proper food ore ollung or scliools.
und that parents are under the
same obligations to their child
ren to furnish one as the other,
to the extent of their ability.
The modern people of St. Johns
want numerous small tracts of
hind scattered all over town
within easy reach of the child
ren, and with proper equipment,
where the children can go any
day, and all duy if they like, und
play to their hearts' content.
Forget tno word parks una
think PLAY GROUNDS FOR
THE CHILDREN, and you wil
get the idea right. Forget gram
show places und drives, am
think or a number ot play
irrounds. even though small. with
proper equipment for tho EV-J
ERY DAY use of the children.
Large parks. 100 acres or more,
with hill and valley, cataracts
and ilowing fountains, wide boul
evards and beautiful lawns, and
signs "keep olf tho grass," are
very fine and appropriate for
urge cities as show places to
visit Sunday afternoons. But
St. Johns lias no chance to get
such a place, oven if wo wanted
it. and I would not invor n sin
gle largo park, anyway. But wo
can get and ought to get several
small tracts located to tho best
advantage in different parts of
the city, ami oqum them proper-
lv. fnv tho nvnrv nnv nso of tho
people, especially tlio children,
tills year. Land will never bo
cheaper in St. Johns, and the
beautiful groves of native woods
aro being cut down rapidly, and
there s no reason apparent why
tho citv could not have several
well equipped play grounds ready
to turn over to tho children ny
the time school closes next sum
mer. Every father and mother
they are all equal voters now if
of ago- repeat this sentence
three times a day lor a month:
"I want a well equipped play
ground for my children"--and
tho thing will bo done.

WHAT IS NEW
In the World of Fashion
able Dress
Distinctively Russian are the
new frocks, with their side clos
ing blouses like 7813. They are
smurt and becoming, and oifer a
chance to use u combination of
colors of fabrics, as, a skirt of
white ratine, and blouse of pink
or blue linen or ratine. Another
pretty combination is the blouse
of flowered crepe or voile, with
skirt of plain white voile. Then
for afternoon wear the blouse
may bo of some pretty brocude,
with skirt of churmeuse match
ing the figure in the brocude. It
is a good way to use up rem
nants that can be picked up to
ward the end of the season very
reasonably. Introduce some note
v '0 J-73M
of contrast in the collar and gir
dle, and fasten witli buttons cov
ered with self fabric. Have you
noted the new silhouette that is
creeping into the present fash
ion? It is just the shape ot the
peg tops little boys play with,
and tills has given It tho name
of tho peg top outline. The
skirt Illustrated, 7814, shows
this now noto in a very simple
form. T hero aro two sections.
seamed at the side, and toward
tho foot the fullness is held in
by a small plait, not stitciied,
but kept in position by buttons.
At the back is tho fashionable
half belt, that gives such an
effective finish. Patterns for this
blouse are obtainable in six
sizes. 32 to 42. and for the 30
inch size 3 yards 30 inch mate
rial will bo required. The skirt
Is cut in sizes for misses 10, 17
und the 18 yeur size, which is
quite large enough; for small and
medium sizo women cans lor zt
yards 3G inch material. Each
pattern is fifteen cents.
Concrete Houses
Tim nrniect of buildinir houses
in a day or two by pouring con
crete into forms so set up as to
make a mold for tho entire build
ing is now being realized both
in this country and in Europe.
Several groups of these build
ings aro shown in illustrations
in the September Populur Me
chanics Magazine. An article
states:
'Thpso noured concrete houses
can be built quickly, the average
time lor tho construction oi each
dwelling in one group of 40 hav-ino-
hnftn five davs. In anv lo
cality where the materials for
concrete are readily available,
they cost less than houses built
bv anv other substantial method
of constructif n. They are fire
proof, have no cracks or crev-
ipa n lijti'hnr perms, arc pnsllv
cleaned by removing the furni
ture and washing down with a
hose, and. therefore, more sani-
tnrv rlinn hnildinfs pnnRtrnnfpd
with plaster walls and wooden
floors and trim.'
It will be unlawful in Oregon
to employ a girl under 18 years
of age for more than eight hours
and 20 minutes a day,or50 hours
a week, after October 4. 1913,
It will also be unlawful to keep
a girl under 18 employed after 8
p. m. or to pay a girl from 16 to
18 less than $1 a day. except in
the cases of apprentices and
learners,- Ex.
Parcel Post All Right I
Evidently under the inspira
tion of tiie express companies
the public was educated to be
lieve that a parcel post spelled
bankruptcy to tho country mer
chant. The trade papers preached
it for years; to the country deal
er it was a constunt nightmare.
und even people who favored the
idea did so with some pangs of
sympathy for the poor dealer who
was to ho put out oi business by
the big muil order houses in the
large cities. The parcel post has
been in operation some eight
months, and can you name one
solitary country denier who litis
fulled in business during that
t me that can honestly say the
parcel post did it?
We read of cooked meats und
cakes that mother actually made
going by post to her1 boy in the
city; oi asparugus ami crisp rad
ishes from friend to friend: of
human ashes and nil sorts of cu
rious and unusual things find
ing their destination through the
mod urn of parcel post, but how
muny articles which tlte country
merchant has in stock on his
shelves are ordered from the
city to come back by parcel post?
As a matter or inct, one oi the
unrest mail order houses in the
world makes practically no effort
to advertise its iroods in towns
which have a really untodatc de
partment store, und ships the
grout bulk of its sales by freight
as when there wus no parcel
post. Tho new service wus
needed, and is proving of grout
sorvico to the people; but for the
most part tne business it (iocs is
reullv created business, including
articles which aro now sent be
cause the rate permits it, and
which wero seldom shipped un
der express rates. It did not oc
cur to people to pay 25 or 35 cones
express on articles which the re
cipient could buy in his own
town for 5 or 10 cents; but when
the 10 cent article cup bo mailed
for half its cost, the thing be
comes practicable. But as for
putting the country denier out
of business, thut was simply the
dream of tho express companies.
II. II. Windsor In the Septem
ber Popular Mechanics Maga
zine. The Rabbit Pest
The state authorities have re
cently launched a movement de
signed to assist in tho extermi
nation of jack rabbits which
iiave been on tho increase in
Central and Eastern Oregon for
years pust. So serious bus tho
rabbit pest become thut Gover
nor West somo time ago appoint
ed a committee to take charge of
the mutter and if possible devise
means for the relief of farmers
in the nfilicted counties. Tho
meeting wus attended by State
Gamo Warden Finley, State Vet-
ernarlan W. H. Lytic. L. A.
Lewis and Prof. II. W. Henshaw
of Washington, D. C, chief of
the biological survey of tho de
partment of agriculture. Mr.
Henshaw has made a life study
of animals and bus given partic
ular attention to tho rabbit pest
n Austra a. He gave it as his
opinion that the theory of Inocu-
ation has little, 11 any, practi
cal value. Game Warden Finley
stated that the value of tho rab
bit drive had been demonstrated
in Eastern Oregon, between 16.
000 and 18,000 having been kill
ed in threo drives. It is suld
that tho creat increase n the
number of rabbits is duo to tho
killing off of the coyotes. As
the covote force diminishes that
of the rabbit increases nnd at tho
present time they are causing
immense damage to crops und
gardens.
In a Perilous Position
With his leg caught in the tide
gates that protect the meadows
at New Haven.Lonn., irom over
flow, a 16 year old boy faced
death for four hours while stren
uous efforts were being made to
effect his release. The fire and
police departments were culled
out, and a rubber tube was in
serted in the boy's mouth.
Through this ho managed to
breathe for hours after the in
coming tide had covered his
head. A trolley wreaKer hnauy
succeeded in smashing one of
the tide gates, allowing the tide
to flow over the meadows and
lowering the surface of the wa
ter so that the boy's head was
again out of water, after which
it was possible to force the gate
anough to release his leg.
A Fatal Accident
Chester Gould, the eight year
old son of Orland Gould, resid
ing ut 1008 E. Polk street, was
run over by one of the Peninsula
Sand nnd Gravel Co.'s loaded
wagons at the Macrum street
gravel dock on Columbia Slough
at about 11 o'clock Monday
morning, resulting in u broken
thigh nnd intermit injuries. The
lad lingered along until about 4
o'clock Monday afternoon, when
death relieved him from all
suffering. The driver of the
wagon was a son of L. D. Jack
son of the Peninsula Sand and
Gravel Co., and lie states thut
he noticed the little follow bung
ing around the wagon and ud
monished him to keep away, but
when his attontion was diverted
toward getting his horses under
wuy. the lad must have attempt
ed to get in the wagon and slip
ped and fell under one of the
wheels. The accident was a
most distressing one. The lad
was said to have been a bright
little boy, nnd his suddun und
tragic death is a great blow to
the family.
Chester Lorov uould wus born
in Eureka, Cul., nnd had lived
with his parents in St. Johns
for tho past three years. He is
survived by his parents and two
brothers und throe sisters. In
terment took place in the Rose
City cemetery, the funeral being
conducted by Undertaker Black
burn. Long Distance Shipment
An experiment in tho long
distance shipment of perishable
fruit is about to bo tried within
a few days. An entire car load
of peaches is to be dispatched to
Europe lrom the ukimu coun
try, and in this shipment only
the finest selected Elbcrtas wiil
bv UBcd. While the regulation
boxes will be used, the layers of
fruit will be separated by a
cushion of wood fiber us a pro
tection against rough handling
and possible damage. If litis
trial shipment proves a success,
it Is probable that an extensive
business in peaches will be de
veloped by Pacific Northwest
fruit exchanges. It is likely
that the opening of the Panama
Canal will result In Increased
movement )f tho softer varieties
of fruit, us they can then bo
shipped direct with u consequent
saving in time.
Buyers' Week
For Buyers' Week, promoted
by the Portland Commercial club
nnd the Chumber of Commerce,
an organization has been per
fected among Portland mami fac
ta re rs and jobhors for tho pur
pose of muking things enjoyable
for the visitors during tho week
