Oregon City, May 27. Editor Courier: Mr. Kelenhofer: I have read your article in the Courier of May 24 twice, ana it puts mo in minu of an old fable tha runs some thing like this: In an early day in Indiana a man went out in the woods, took up a home and took a cow along and all the grub he had to eat was tne mim ami me wild meat ho could kill. Well, there was a fox that used to have quite a time with the cow while she was grazing in the woods, but it often happened that the man could not llnd the cow read ily, so he but a bell on her. The first morning the cow went out with the bell on the fox got scared, but he finally ventured up so (hat he could look up under the bell, when ho said: "Well, I declare, what a long tongue for such a hollow head." Now why do you haggle over what this one says and what that one says. All single taxers get their ideas from, Henry George, and you have as much right to read that as any one., and I here is a bill before Iho people, or will be. Take the bill and a pencil and start figuring and thinking, and see if you can't come somewhere ni'iii' di'lennininir whether it will or not benefit you, your children or your children s cniitiren. Now I will give you some fig ures. Clackamas county has 1,-2-44,1 GO acres of land, besides 3 township forest reserves and there was in 1909 $427,239 col lecled. How much would this be an acre if every acre was taxed alike? See if it would be more or less I ban you paid, that is if you are a farmer. Now by reading the Oregonian it seems to me that you belong to the class of high finance. If you ilo not, just get the Sunday edi tion of May 12 and the issue of May 19, and a reading of them should convince any man whether or not any money is needed to light single tax. If you think the Oregonian or any other paper that belongs to hiuh flnnnr.n is en in IT to work for I anything that will be beneficial I to you, yim have anotner iiiiiik Ull Nil lift . I Mv iln is In wnfch those fel lows and when they say anything to doubt it, and if they fight for anything to light against it, and I think that is tho safest bet for any laboring man, and I class all farmers as laborers, more, they are slaves, as it were. I know one mini wlin enn'l. take an evening off once a week to attend lodge on account ol somo cow to mint. Now, Mr. Kelenhofer, there has never been a new thing started yet that there has not been a lot of fel lows to light it as hard as they could. Some fought for a king, others fought against him; some fought for the public schools and others fought against them; snme fought for the postoflice system and some against. And so on. God told Adam to go to sleep and he would take a rib out of him and make a helpmate. Adam told the Lord he could not make it work. My opinion is that taking into consideration the material be had i In alnrl with Iia iliil I ho flnnst 1 1 1 , , chanical job that I ever read or' heard of. 1 And now I will give you anoth er what I consider is a safe bet, and that is whenever you and all laborers, farmers included, have a chance to make a change, do so, 1 for any change cannot make mat ters worse for you. Now, Mr. Kelehhofer, I am 0110 , of the most liberal minded men you ever saw. I don't blame you because you cannot see things right, for you had not one word to say about coming into this world, neither did you have one word to say about the architec ture of your head up to, one will say, fifteen or sixteen years (and that is what makes one under stand, see or do things' in the head) so YOU see that you are right and you cannot see that you might possibly be wrong. If by fair, true statements and figures you will show me where I am wrong, I will turn around and help you. You say you are going to kill single tax this fall, let, me tell you that you will know that you have been to a fight, and you will know how the other fellow looks by tak ing a look at a glass. Clonic again, Mr. Kelenhofer. The Hobo. Fairfax Club Entertained. The members of the Fairfax Bridge Club were delightfully en tertained Monday evening by Mrs. A. B. Wilmot.

Memorial Day was Remembered and Fittingly Observed. Memorial Day was llttingly ob served in this city yesterday, and part of the business houses closed for the half day, so that all might attend the services and show proper respect for the boys in blue. In the morning the chool chil dren made a handsome parade, marching in a long line to the Willamette hall, each one carry ing a flag. The parade was in deed a pretty feature. At the hall they were received by the mem bers of the G. A. R. and the Wom an's Relief Corps.The band head ed the parade, followed by the old veterans, and then came the long line of school children. After a splendid short program by the scho.jl children, addresses were made by George C. Brownoll, Rev. A. Hildebrand, Superinten dent Fred Tooze and members of the G. A. R. After the hall exercise the G. A. R., the Relief Corps, Sons of Veterans, accompanied by Co. G., state militia, and the Oregon City band, inarched to the bridge, where short services were held, and where flowers were strewn on the water in honor of those who died on I he water while fight ing for their country. The parade then marched to the opera house, where a program was rendered, after which the parade marched to Mountain View cemetery, where the graves of the departed veterans were fittingly decorated. After the return from the ceme tery the Woman's Relief Corps served a line dinner lo the G. A. R. at Willamette hall. There were representatives from the G. A. R. posts from nearly every section of the county in attendance. THE GRADUATES. List of theLadies and Gentlemen who Won their Diplomas.

There has been a large atten dance of city people to view the school exhibits this week, and the trip to the gymnasium of the Bar clay school has been well repaid for tho trouble. Tho work will be on exhibition all this week, and if you have not sen it, you should. The domestic science department has a very tempting display and it seems hard to believe this is the first yea- that his department has been installed. Tho class in inanuel training has received many compliments on their splendid exhibit. Almost anything that one can think of in this line has been- made by the boys. . Many handsome and useful ar ticles have been made by tho girls' sewing class, that for neat ness and daintiness cannot be ex celled. The maps, compositions, etc. from the different schools show careful study, and oltogether it is a splendid exhibit, for which the pupils and teachers are worthy of the highest praise.

A Play That Cost Over $100,000 to Stage for the Public Tho sain if seats for the en gagement ,1 Maude Adams in "Chantecler" bt the Heilig llieatre for the three nights commencing next Monday, will begin Friday morning and there is every indi cation that it will be very heavy. The interest of I lie coming of the actress in this play has been evi nced by I he inquiries at the box oflice and the mail orders which have been pouring into the thea tre all this week.. The popular ity of the actress, together with the reputation which has been won by Rostand's work for its po- lic and literary charm as well as for its humor, will undoubtedly insure an ambience as large as the theatre can hold. "Chantecler" is expected to make its appeal as a beautiful spectacle, a serious poem and a fantastic comedy. II is sure to be regarded as the dom inating novelty of the limes. The same massive production of the work that was seen 111 New lork will be displayed here. There arc four scenes and they are all color ful and picturesque. The open ing scene shows the barnyard and its birds, fowls and animals. An illusion is created here by a trick of stagecraft. When Chanlecler struts upon the scene chanting the Ode to the Sun he does not look to be more than half the height of Maude Adams. .This ef fect is obtained by enlarging all the inanimate objects in sight. A kennel is as big as an ordinary stage house, a wheelborrow fills as much space as an ox carl. 'and a hand basket is the size to hold Chanlecler's molher, who lifts the cover frequently to cackle cynical comments on what is going on about her.

Sensible Women Know Foundation of Health. As health talks to women be come more general, both in the newspapers and on the platform, the mass of women are beginning to realize what the niorec ulliva fed have always known, that good health cannot be found in a pow der box. The externals of health may be obtained in that way, but theh asis of health lies deeper, and yet is just, as easily obtained. The most important thing that, a woman can do for herself, and about which she fs often most neglectful, is to watch the condi tion of her stomach and bowels. The weary eyes, the bad breath, thef requent headaches, the pim ples, the general air of lassitude, is nine times out of ten the result of constipation or indigestion or both. Many simple remedies can be obtained, but the best, in the estimation of most, women is Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, it is mild, pleasant to the taslo and ex actly suited to her needs. It is far superior to salts, cathartic pills, waer, etc., which are entire ly too violent. Women should tee to it that they have at least one movement of t he bowels each day, and when showing any lend. nicy to consti pation should lake Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin in the small dose prescribed. .A briel use of it will so train the stomach and bowel muscles that all forms of medi cine can be dispensed with. These opinions are voiced by thousands of women, after personal exper ience, among them Alia M. Lilly, Redwine, Calif., and Mary A. Heche, St. Thomas, Nevada. Anyone wishing to make a trial of this remedy before buying it in tlier egular way of a druggist at fifty ceifl.s or one dollar a large bottle (family size) can havo a sample bottle sent to the home free of charge by simply address ing l)r W.
