By EDWIN A. NYE.
A BRAVE WOMf.N.
For several years this woman suffer
ed the infliction of a drunken husband.
He finally left her the heritage of two
small children and some bitter-memories.
For twenty years now she has been
janitress of a building. "
Out of her earnings she gave her
children a common school education.
Also she wisely threw up against a
rainy day the dike of a savings bank
account.
The floods came.
Inheritir- diseased tendencies from
the father, the children died one after
the other, neither of them coming to
adult age.
The iliness. the doctor's fees, the
fUDeral expenses and the two modest
headstones in the cemetery took the
poor woman's entire savings.
' The days following each funeral she
went back to her work, her face a
shade paler and with a sad smile.
Now she has thrown up a second bar
rier against misfortune another sav
ings account. And never in twenty
years has she been known to whine or
whimper or intrude her troubles. And
despite her many sorrows there is sun
shine in her face. . -
One day she was asked the secret of
her brave fight and contentment with
her status In the world, whereupon
she replied:
"It never changes a thing to com
plain, and people do not like it." .,
A commonplace story?
It is not: It ia the story of an un
usual woman who has made an un
usual struggle and kept sweet; a wo
man who. though uneducated. Is In
possession of an Intrepid spirit and. an
unusual philosophy.
y Read again what .she says:
"It never changes things " to com
plain." Does it? If not why com
plain? It is useless. It Is worse than
useless. Whining and moping make
things worse.
"People do not like it."
They do not They have troubles of
their own. To persistently complain is
to make a bore of oneself. If you
have troubles, grin and bear them. If
you can't grin, bear them anyway. -
The world is quick to answer a cry
of real distress, but it has no patience
with a quitter or a grumbler.
Let the whiner follow the brave lit
tle woman If need be. scrub the
floors and smile.
WHITE LINEN AND EMBROIDERY
Little tub dresses of linen are per
haps the most practical of all for
the" summer wardrobe of the small
girl. The. one ia the drawing today
has a deep yoke of eyelet embroid
ery running to a slight point on eith
er side of the front. The cuffs of-the
short sleeves are of the same and
similarly shaped. From each of the
yoke points runs a band of the em
broidery which has. the appearance
of passng beneath the plain linen belt
and terminating on the skirt in a
point. The dress is closed to the left
of the front by a row of small crochet
buttons.
THE GAITER SHOE.
New Styles In the
Season's Footwear.
BOOTS BOTLT LIKE GATTZBS NOW
Fashion favors this season the gaiter
boot, with its cloth top buttoned down
the outer side exactly like a well fit
ting gaiter. Two styles are shown here,
both boots being of patent leather in
walking style, one pair having fawn
colored cloth gaiter tops, the other pair
tops of navy blue twill fabric. The
buttons are flat and riveted to the
cloth so they cannot fly off at a crit
ical moment
How They Do It.
Did you ever hear of a womanless
republic?
Well, there Is one on a peninsula
south of Macedonia, In Greece, where
10,000 men live, studying and praying
constantly.
Policemen guard the lands' constant
ly to keep out women pilgrims and
other undesirable guests.
This place is called the Mount of the
Twenty Monasteries and was used in
ancient times as a signaling station,
but is now a real republic.
These 10,000 monks govern them
selves without interference from Tur
key or any other country. There are.
however, no government buildings, no
president or other officeholders.
The only police force is composed of
men, who pntror the coast to keep out
women and men who have no permit
to enter this mos$ exclusive of coun
tries. Only those who have a letter
of permission from the Greek patriarch
in Constantinople are allowed tq, enter
the holy place. -'
Some reports have it that thia re
public was formed in the ninth cen
tury. It la said that the foot of wom
an has not touched the soil of the
place for centuries.
The monks who live on the place
work the soil a little, but they depend
chiefly upon contributions from pil
grims for their existence. Probably
the greatest collection of Biblical man
uscripts is in the monasteries of this
republic - - ,
"It i". the most lnp-pstins place in

As a result of economic methods and the acquirement of additional facilities, the
PORTLAND RAILWAY, LIGHT & POWER COMPANY takes a great deal of pleasure
in announcing to the citizens of Oregon City and the surrounding territory an import
ant reduction In its electric light and power rates.
It has been the constant policy of the Company to give good service' at reason
able rates. The Company is more interested than anybody else In building up a bigger,
busier and better Portland, and it fully recognizes the important influence of low rates
and good service. The new lighting rate is 9, 7 and 4c per kilowatt hour. Details of
this reduction and the conditions Involved can be secured upon application at any of
the Company's offices. . Several months will be required to change over the 31,000 ac
counts which this reduction in lighting rates will affect.. In order that our patrons may'
be put to-the least possible inconvenience, new contracts will be mailed beginning May
1st. The Company earnestly requests that these be signed, witnessed and returned to
the Company's representative In Oregon City as promptly as possible, thus avoiding
the possibility of waiting in line at the office.

assured that her money is safe.

CORRESPONDENCE
ESTACADA.
Gov. West addressed the people at
the Garfield Grange hall Saturday at
11 a. m. He explained his prison pol
icy, showing that it was saving mon
ey to the taxpayers, while it was re
forming the prisoners themselves. He
said that the majority of the convicts
came to the penitentiary because of
booze and idleness. He said that only
prisoners who showed their worthi
ness were put out on honor.. He said
he was negotiating with the Southern
Pacific Company to get a $40,000 rock
crusher, which he would put up near
New Era. He would establish a con
vict camp there and furnish rock for
the roads, .later he said he hoped to
be able to "establish a camp at Caza
dero to furnish rock at cost for this
end of the county. He defended the
Gov. West road bills, hut said that
he was willing to back up if shown
that he was wrong. His prison policy
met with the approval of his audi
tors; but the grangers are loyal to
their own road bills. The large ma
jority of the grangers are opposed to
bonding for roads. At 2 p. mrProf.
L. R. Alderman delivered an excellent
address on scheol topics and explained
why he favored the school supervis
ors. Mr. Alderman is a humorous and
eloquent speaker and kept his audi
ence enthused during his speech. Sam
ples of humor are: "A boy at Salem
planted potatoes. He planted onions
between the rows so that the pota
toes' eyes would water and irrigate
the ground." ''A man sprinkled the
steps of his barn so his cows would
slip and strain their milk."
Garfield Grange initiated eight mem
bers aad received an application.
James Bell, a Sandy politician and
prominent granger, was present at
Garfield Grange Saturday.

Several from George and Bissil were
over to hear Governor West and the.
state superintendent last - Saturday.
The Grange hall (a large one) was
filled to overflowing. By some mis
take or other the Governor was billed
to speak at two o'clock and quite a
number were disappointed ia not get
ting to hear him, as the change was
not announced until 9 o'clock. Those
at a distance did not get there to hear
him at 11 o'clock. He had to make
two other places the same day, so
only had time to cast one admiring
glance at the excelleat banquet, be
neath which the tables were groaning.
It was prepared by the Garfield ladies,
who have a state-wide reputation for
knowing how to tickle the epicures.
Several gathered lunch ia receptacles
and rushed them to the fine touring
car of our estimable Dr. Adix, who
brought our Governor from and to
the car. Garfield wasn't going to have
our Governor nor doctor go away hun
gry if they did have to make break
neck speed to catch the car to Port
land. Our Governor and others was
taken with the beauty and grandeur
of the Garfield country. All enjoyed
his talk, as they also did our state
superintendent. They both predicted
we would see them hack here again.

few comparatively, are temporal and
"There are now those who, though
not spiritual. Those who are covet

their professional work and prose
cute avocatons of business. Those
who are incompetent, who never were

his followers to have. Yet we find
these from time to time in the pul

the daily press often to find examples
of such men.
"And yet, though the dust of conflict
may from time to time "obscure the
Christian character and the retarding
influence of such as I have last des

is as s'trong and vigorous as it was
nineteen centuries ago. We recognize
it under most unfavorable conditions

belief, by its tore of God and Christ,
and, as necessarily accompanying,
the love of man. Its conquest of the
