Woman's Club
Not to Start
Nurse Z)rivell
That the Oregon City Woman's
club does not intend to sponsor a
movement for the independent sup
port of a county health nurse, is the
statement of Eva Emery Dye, presi
dent of the club, following the pub
lished reports that a movement was
about to be inaugurated by the club.
"Anything of this nature is the func
tion of the County Health Associa
tion, but of course the Woman's clUD
will assist to the extent of its abili
ty," she says.
Mrs. Dye's' statement regarding the
health nurse, made in the name of the
club says that "prizes for perfect
children may become as. popular as
prizes for pigs and chickens. The
neglect of children in our day and
age is something astounding, crippled
children everywhere, children arriv
ing at maturity without a tooth or
with blinded eyes, or afflicted with
chronic catarrh, with curved spines
and tubercular chests, cross-eyed
children that by the slightest opera
tion might have been saved that dis
figurement, stunted children, anaemic
children, stupid children, naturally
bright but handicapped by some phy
sical defect so that they cannot see
or hear as well as others, these are
the little ones to whom a health nurse
comes as an angel of light. The bat
tle for the children has been fought
and won In so many counties that we
know it will come to Clackamas. The
fund from the sale of Christmas seals
will soon be announced and other
sources of revenue will be discovered.
Every lover of children will help."
BUILDERS USE LARGE STONES
Immense Blocks of Granite in Federal
-Structure at ' Washington Others
in Old Temples.
Some of the blocks of granite used
in the construction of the treasury
building at Washington are the largest
ever moved in this country, and they
were carried from the eastern part
of Maine. They were transported to.
Washington by water, and after their
arrival there moved by ox-power, a
sort of double pulley system, a dis
tance of two miles to the spot where
they were wanted for use.
The work of moving them was per
formed with comparative ease, not
more than eight or ten yoke of oxen
being employed to move a block weigh
ing more than 70 tons. The fluted pil
lars, a great number of which are
used -in the building, are 40 feet long,
and weigh 50 tons at least. The
largest blocks, 30. to 40 feet square, and
three feet thick, weighed upward of
70 tons.
In the foundation of the great temple
of the sun at Baalbec may still be
seen, even in the second course, stones
whicli are 37 feet long and nine feet
thick; and under these find about 20
feet from the ground, three stones
which alone occupy 1S2 feet in length
by 12 feet high. These three stones
are estimated to weigh 900 tons each!
But one reads of an Egyptian idol
temple, Buris, far surpassing this. In
which there was a sanctuary com
Itosed of a single block of granite 60
feet square. This Is the largest and
heaviest stone mentioned in the his
tory of nations. ,
CURFEW BELL STILL SOUNDED
Authorities of Lincoln's Inn, London,
England, Keep Up Custom Es
tablished Centuries Ago.
At nine o'clock each night, the cur
few Is rung, in London, England,
writes a correspondent, as it has been
for 3O0 years. This old-time custom
Js still a part of the duty of the chief
porter of Lincoln's Inn. The bell
which Is tolled was originally brought
from Calais by the ill-fated Robert
Devereux, earl of Essex, In 1596. It
is hung in the old Lincoln's Inn chapel,
erected during the reign of James I,
In the building of which Ben Jonson
Is said to have used his trowel. "At
8 :45 each night I light my lantern
and proceed to the helfry," Said the
chief porter who In his modesty
wishes to remain anonymous, "As
soon as the last stroke of nine has
sounded I strike the bell HO times.
Why 50? Well, I don't know, except
that It is the custom. The only time
the curfew has not been sounded in
Lincoln's Inn during the past 300
years or so was during the war after
the bomb" fell In Chancery lane in Oc
tober. 1015. I rang the hell, as usual,
at nine o'clock. The bomb fell 2ti
minutes later, shaking the whole
place. Some people thought that the
curfew was responsible, so it was sus
pended until the night of the armis
tice." AUTHOR MAY DIE '
