Real Substitute for
Cow's Milk Found
San Francisco, Sept. 1. Exist Bos
sy Cow as a friend of mankind.
Just as the gasoline motor spelled
the doom of the horse, so the discov
ery that rice is milk in crytalized
form is the handwriting on the wall
for the cow.
This is the contention of Sander
Christensen, Glenn county rice grow
er, and J. H. Sassen of San Antonio.
Texas, following a serie-5 of experi
ments in San Francisco.
As proof of their contention, they
called in witnesses to sample ice
cream which they made with the new
rice milk, butter and other products
in which cow's milk usually is used.
Explaining the new discovery,
Christensen paid:
"The transformation from the na
tural elements into milk is performed
through water roots of the rice plant,
upon the same principal as that by
which the milk is brought through
the milk veins of the cow in the ud
der. The sun's' heat performs the job
direct."
The Return Of The Soldier Bead
I The return of the bodies of a large number of the
soldiers who died on foreign soil is creating in many
places scenes of patriotic and pathetic interest. The
friends who have desired the return of these remains
will perhaps find some comfort in the proximity of those
last relics. The people will be glad that no effort or ex-
pense was spared to give this bit of satisfaction to those
who made so great a sacrifice.
The bodies of those that remain in the foreign soil
which they so nobly freed of the brutal invader, will not
be forgotten. They rest in "fame's eternal camping
ground," with a multitude of noble heroes.
It is a day of many sad memories when the last
rites are said at the little home burial grounds where the
soldier bodies finally find their last resting place. Yet
perhaps the bitterness of grief has passed away so that
the friends of these dear boys can feel the honor that
comes with the tragedy.
These young men achieved the highest triumph of
life. Nothing that they could have accomplished in
1 seventy years of ordinary living could compare with
what they did in those few short months. . They will be
remembered forever as the saviors of their country, as
I the men who showed their ability to rise above pain and
sorrow and peril and fear and to attain the highest level
j of nobility.
Any family that is represented in these quiet ceme-
teries by one of these boys, has a right to feel proud of
the contribution it has made to the progress of the world.
It has given the highest gift in human power, and i t
should be cherished forever in a special place of honor
I in the community. Our people should not forget the
I boys who have made this sacrifice, nor the sorrowing
I ones left behind, but show the survivors by constant
f sympathy and friendship how much this service is
j valued and treasured.

Carelessness Cause
Of Death, Says Jury
The coroner's jury that investigated
the death of W. .1. Gortmaker, who
died Saturday as the result of being
scalded early the same day while en
gaged in repairing the flume leading
to the Oregon City Woolen mills.
brought in a verdict finding that.
death was by scalding due to b'Ow-
ing off steam from the Hawley Pulp
& Paper company's boiler room. We
find that carelessness existed on the
part of the Orsgon City Manufactur
ing company in not properly notifying
the Hawley Pulp & Paper company
that men would be working in the vi
cinity of the blw-off pipe.
The members of the jury were W.
C. Green. William D'Hondl, Carl
Gren. E. A. Osborne, George Rath
and F. W. Cox.
The jury recommended the instal
lation of a system of signals whereby
a warning could be given before
steam was blown off.
Gortmaker's funeral was held from
the Holman- & Pace chapel yesterday
afternoon, the Rev. H. G. Edgar offi
ciating He was a member of the
Knights and Ladies of Security and
of the local lodge of Orangemen. Sur
viving are two sons.
H. L. Kelly, familiarly known among
hisi many friends as Leighton, arrived
in Oregon City, his old home town,
Monday morning form Honolulu, af
ter a two years' slay. Mr. Kelly is
fish and game commissioner of the
Hawaiian Islands, having held that
position for two years, and is now
enjoying " a three weeks vacation,
which will be spent with his mother,
Mrs. H. L. Kelly, and his sisters, Mrs,
E. A. Chapman, Miss May Kelly and
Miss Bessie Kelly, of this city.
Mr. and Mrs. Kelly had much ex
perience in the line of work he is
connected with in the Hawaiian Is
lands. For a number of years he
was with the United Spates fish
hatcheries, and later went to South
America, where he was at the head
of the government fish hatcheries of
Argentina, remaining there for three
years.
Mr. Kelly left the Isiands August
27th on the steamer Niagara, and
came home by way of Canada, visit
ing Vancouver, B. C. Although he
has seen various countries and states
but says nothing looks ' as good as
his old home state Oregon, and' he
is glad to be back again to his home
town. He has many friends in this
city who are giving the visitor a
most cordial welcome.

against Frank Russell, their driver,
started as a test of the recently
enacted vehicle tax ordinance, was
overruled in the recorder's court
Thursday by Recorder Chirles Kelly.
The date for the hearing has not

that the complaint aguinst Russell,
charging him with driving a truck
offering goods for resale, without a
city license, did not constitute
grounds for action and that the ordi
nance is unconstitutional.
It is the plan of the defendants,

A car driven by Thomas A. Mult
hauff, 331 Larraboe street. Portland,
was thrown intc the ditch on tht pa
cific highway near Gladstone at 12:45
o'clock Thursday afternoon. The ma
chine was hit by a Franklin which

pants of Multhauff's car were not In
jured.
According to the report filed in the
sheriff's office by Multhauff. the
Franklin tooted to get by, and al
though given the road, failed to take
clearance. The drivtr did not stop,
but drove on ahead, paying no atten
tion to the car in the ditch. The
Franklin is p'lsted aa belonging to A.
D. Kern, 178 E. 15ih street, Portland.
Multhauff was accompanied by his
wift, two children and an elderly man.
The damage to the car was not serious.
Angler is Fined for
Not Having License
A. Johnson was fined $25 in the
justice court here Wednesday when
he was found guilty of fishing with
out a license. The offense occurred
Sunday at Oswego Lake.
Judge E. J. Noble dismissed the
case against Ed. Routhage, of Multno
mah against whom charges were
brought by Chester V. Nutting. It
iwas alleged that tho former threat
ened to kill the complaining witness,
but testimony failed to substantiate
the charge. ;
Perhaps the most important enter
prise in the world the business of
education is soon to begin and it
touches most of us directly. In fact,
many mothers are already giving it
serious thought, and it is rone too
early.
What the children shall wear, where
they go to school and to whom, and
what they shall study ,and he plan
of life they must adopt to make the
whels go smoothly; all these are con-
side.ations. The chief consideration,
however, is the children themselves
We hate to mention it to them,, to
make them a bit nervous about hav
ing their freedom and playtime ;o
coon cut short. We like to let them
revel in the happy, uninterrupted
hours as care free as they may while
ihey are children, but for them wo
are making plans.
We want them to go into the school
room one-hundred per cent fit. If ton
sils are not perfect or adenoids are
present, the sooner they are cut the
better. A dentist should overhaul th
children's teeth, giving them a good
cleaning, and filling all cavit:es. Of
course we will give them an extia
thorough shampoo and a hair cut b5
for the first day It would be well
for us to get after their eyes, too, with
boric acid wash. That is a fine sari-
tary habit to carry from infancy to
old age as it keps the eyes free frim
germs and gives them a chance u
row strong.
A convenient way to keep the boric
acid wash always on hand is 10 have
two jelly glasses with covers to fit.
In one put the boric acid wash and in
the other clean aborbent cotton. The
wash is made by boiling a cup of
water to which has been added a tea
poon of boracic acid powder, into
the wash dip a small piece of cotton
and hold over the eye with the head
tipped back fo that the wafh will drop
into the eye. A few drops will fall
frm the cotton into each eye1 and on.;
piece will do for the daily wash. Of
course the cotton should never be dip
ped back again into the clean wash
nor should the same piece be used for
more than one child if it has touched
the eye or any possible contamination,
but a new piece used each time. Both
glasses- should be kept covered when
not in use.
While it is not possible to store up
fresh air for shut-:n weather, yet it
is possible 'to so build up health that
the child, becoming rurged, may
weather through in good shape the
shutn life i.i school. Every possible
hour from now until scnoo! begins
shouid be spent ir the open and if the
child can slep out doors every night
all the year around, so much the bet
ter. With well purified lungs anl
blood, his brain wil be clearer and his
ambitions and energy stronger.
Lots of the exercise that play gives
and long, undisturbed hours of sleep
will help the bra:u to become its best.
No overexerting movies nor much
strain and gadling should handicap
the school boy or girl. That their
minds may develop strongly they must,
come aloiig slowly and sanely without
undue stimulant.
Much depends on the digestive ap
paratus if the child is to become a
sturdy little individual. Here are
some supper menuesl for children
which are upbuilding and yet good to
slep on:
1. Eggs, boiled, coddled, poached,
or scrambled; bread and butter; spin
ach or other greens; cake.
Beef stew with vegetables; milk,
crisp, thin tea biscuitsi; honey.
3. Dried bean or pea puree; toast;
baked apple; cookies.
4. Vegetable-milk soup; . zwieback;

In the midst of so many real evils,
the metropolitan press stoops to make
a Don Quixote fight on Bobbed Hair.
How puzzling to the innocent little
miss in her teens who has never
known anything else, and how ridicul
ous to the college 'ass who will shake
her very bobbed head in definance.
O? course, there are freakish women
who carry to excess every advance
style It is probably against such thai
the aforesaid polemics are aimed.
Bobbed Hair is in line with progress
and freedom and efficiency and health
and cleanliness. As such, it will sweep
on in spite of thei "fly-onrthe-cart-wheel"
opposition hurled, at it. When
the majority of women adopt shorter
hair, then this same press will rush to
caricature "those old fogey women"
who persist in wearing it long just
as it now pokes fun at whiskers.
It was not so remotely that men
were long hair. In Washington's day,
not only did they put on dainty peri
wigs but even submitted to trills in
neck and sleeve. Such ruff-necks our
modern men refuse to be, and as to
hair, they can scarcely shave it close
enough. ,..
Daniel Boone and the hardy pio
neers wore long hai. It has been the
masculine vogue from ancient times.
Before the battle of Thermopylae the
doughty warriors combed their long
hair that they might die becomingly
His long hair was the undoing of
Absolom or rather his up-doing.
Samson Js'the only athlete' on record
who thrived bet cer on long hair. The
modern Marathon contestants would

they much prefer. -
Since long hair is a handicap in
prowess, exactly why do men want
US to support that- disadvnntpo-r.-'
Must we grow susipicious of their
bravery? ...
Rosa Bonheur, the proud possessor
of unusuaily long and heavy tressea,
was advised that she would never be
come a great artist until she cut off
lier beautiful hair She made the sac
rifice and, in concentrated devotion to
her art, became the painted ot "Horse
rair. '
But as to beauty is long hair the
open sesame? If you have sat behhu

prone to slip from place even after tho
most painstaking care. In the drama,
long. hair, disheveled, is the first
"make up" of the hag or witch.
Styles, pendulum-like, are certain to
carry us from one extreme to the
other, but since Bobbed Hair is in line
with Progress, which never retreats
permanently, it will presently bob up

EAST FAVORS 1925'
; SAYS LOCAL TOURIST
After visiting- his old home state
Ohio, and visiting in other Eastern
states, John W. Bowland, of this city,
has returned home, and is glad to be
back in Oregon, where the weather ts
not as tropical as in places where he
has visited since leaving here in
July. ,
- Mr. Bowland, while ''East, boosted
the 1925 fair, and says from ail indi
cations Oregon will be the mecea for
thousands of people, for this is one
of the main subjects now discussed
in various places . where - he visited.
Taking with him what literature he
could secure to give the Easterners
an idea to what Portland and vicinity
is where the big fair is to be held,
he found that he did not have an
ample supply for the big demand, and
is to forward more for distribution.
When speaking of the fair, Mr. Bow
land says that all say "Yes, we ara
coming out to Oregon in 1925 to at
tend the big fair."
Wni'.e in Toledo Mr. Bowland
visited Mrs. Mary Taylor and daugh
ter. Miss Olive McCardle, who are
among those contemplating coming to
the 1925 fair, and in Cincinatti, Ohio,
he was a guest of Mrs. Ben Lehr,
who is at the head of the Big Four
Railroad, and his old home city, Bre
men. Ohio, where he visited his
brother, T. S. Bowland. In Chicago,
where he remained for two days, he
found the hottest weather the ther
mometer ranging form 101 to 102 de
grees, and very oppressive. It waa
on the day when the thermometer
was hitting the 102 mark and tha
big baseball game was on between
the Chicago White Sox and the
Washington teams. "Talk about your
heat,' saya Mr. Bowilancf, I never
knew it could be so hot, and I was
glad to get into a cool place, and
guesa there were others desiring th
same.
Other states in which Mr. Bowland
visited were Nebraska, Iowa and Ill
inois, where he found the crop of
corn most wonderful, and the farm
ers jubilant over the prospect of the
large yields. There is an unusual
scarcity of fruit in OhSo and other
Eastern states, and many of these
states will be forced to dopend upon
other states to furnish fruit.
Mr. Bowland says "you can say all
you want about the "Beautiful Ohio"
river, the Missouri and other rivers
in the East, but when I saw these
they appeared to be of a muddy col
or, and when "we camel along the
Columbia river, I said to myself "My!
My! My! What a wonderful, river,
and- won't they see the difference
when they come west in 1925. While
boosting for the fair in the various
cities in which he visited, Mr. Bow
land told his friends and acquaint
ances just to save five cents a day
and put this away for the trip West
and visit the fair in 1925. There
were many who "fell" right into the
plan, and have decided to take Bow
land's advice.
"I was born .and reared in the East,
but the West every time for mW
