John Boklt, who was ca'lad the mascot of General Jones' 'suff rage army on its 350-mile hike to the inauguration last February, has de signed several pairs of trouser costumes, and will wear them hereafttr. At her apartments in the Hotel Marceilles yesterday, Mrs. Boldt crit icized the women who are always talking dress reform, she said, but lacked the courage to wear "the seasible clohing they adcocated." "What we need to break the shackels and free these slaves to fashion, is a leader," remarked Mr. Boldt, -is slia sai in a big easy chair attired in her corsetless, trousette costume. It was made of sunburst colored silk, caught in at the ankles with a band of gold and blue embroidery. The high waist, in Empire effect, was finished with a girdle of the same embroidery. "The trouble with us is that we are many years behind the times in dress. The women of the East are far more progressive than us in dress. The majority of women in the world to-day wear trousers, the women of India, Turkey, China, Japan and even the peasant women of many European countries. Trousers of the style I wear, with draperies for evening of soft materials, giving an artistic Greasian line, are far more modest than the slit skirts you see on Broadway, -with the limbs ex posed to the knees, or transparent underclothing."

Yachtsmen to Have Three Seventy five Footers Which Can Be Raced For Years After Will Revive Yatch ing In America. Members of the New York Yacht club aud- other Corinthian organiza tions are well pleased with the news of the acceptance of Sir Thomas Lip ton's challenge for the America's cup. It means a renewed interest in yacht ing and also the development of a new type of racing vessel, and as such the races which are to be held in 1014 will be more than welcome. The first challenge, which was sent through 'the Royal Ulster Yacht club, stipulated that the defender should be a seventy-five foot yacht. It was re ceived by the New York Yacht club on March 6 and declined within a week. A new proposal . made by Sir Thomas, sent on March 20. also was declined on March" 24. On April 8 the Irish baronet sent an unconditional chal lenge. At a meeting of the New York Yacht club on April 25 this was con sidered, and an America's cup com mittee appointed, with power, to carry on the negotiations which have result ed in its final acceptance. There is considerable talk of the com ing contest at the New York Yacht club's home, and the trend of It all shows the keenest interest. One mem-, ber said: "" "The challenge of Sir Thomas will surely revive yachting all over the country. I should not be surprised if three seventy-five foot yachts are built to race for the honor of being select ed to defend the cup, and they are sure to be boats of which we may all be proud not freaks that are of no use after the race except for the scrap heap." - ' William Gardner, the yacht designer, whose sloops Medora. Michicago and Gray Jacket won about everything in their respective, classes last season, said: "I am pleased to hear that the club has accented the challenge. It is not so much a moral victory for Sir Thom as as it is for the sporting spirit in the New York Yacht club. We shall see some fine racing. When Sir Thomas originally wanted t race under what he considered the new rule which, by the way, is not the universal rule at all, but the Atlantic coast conference rule it was then in embryo. "Since then it has crystallized into concrete form, and a cup defender pro duced under it will be the finest yacht of her size afloat. These boats, being built of Tobin bronze,- will, of course, cost more than the ordinary boat of that size, but the money will not be wasted, for they can be raced for years after as a class with good re sults." " . - . Of course there is nothing definite yet known of who will come forward to build the defender. It is said that a syndicate is in process of formation with the avowed aim of furnishing the backing forone sloop, and a well known yachtsman who has been inter ested in the building of other defend ers is rumored to be planning to launch another of his own. GOOD UMPIRES ARE SCARCE. Officials This Year Not Up to Stand ard Close Plays Cause Complaints. One reason which is given for the numerous complaints which are being made against the umpires is that there have been an unusual number of close plays this season. But this is hardly S good excuse for the reason that most of the errors the umpires have" made have been on plays that did not require abnormal eyesight or judgment to de cide. " The fact of the matter seems to be that none of the young crop of officials is quite up to the standard, and the shortcomings' have an effect on the veterans who work with them, thus bringing -about a very unsatisfactory condition. But the fact remains that for some reason or other the umpiring in the American league this season has been far below that of former seasons. PLANS INTERNATIONAL RACE. Coach O'Dea Wants to Hold Big Boat . Classic In 1915. Coach Pat O'Dea of the Leland Stan ford university oarsmen is booming a project to pull off an international col lege boat race on Oakland estuary in K15. , O'Dea, who is a graduate of Mel bourne college, Australia, and also of the University of Wisconsin, says he has heard from the various American universities on the project, in which they are acquies ent. and also from va rious European universities, and that there is no doubt that the rowing races can be arranged. 1 rs MACKSBUKG. A week of exceptionally fine weath er has passed since our last letter to the Enterprise. The growtfi and development in vegetation, the com fort of the men as well as of the noi ses who are engaged in strenuous worir and the unbroken sleep through the cool, refreshing nights give a pleas ure unmarred save by accounts of the torrid wave that last week swept the country from the Atlantic sea board westward. Like the deadly simoons of Southern Asia it kept on its scorching course till it reacned the Rocky Mountains. Then it met its adversary in the volume of vapor ascending from the Pacific, carried eastward by the ocean breeze ana condensed by the masses of perpetual snow. Like the mantle of peace, thib atmospheric benediction descended upon the parched and prostrate peo ple, assuring them that, once more the heated term was over. While we rejoices with them over the relief that finally came, let. us not fail to prize a climate where tha days of comfort are so many and th.ose of unpleasant temperatura are so rare. Fourth of July, while celebrated m a patriotic spirit, passed without an ap proach to accident or alarm. As is Usual here, on every red-lett.er-day, many social and family gatherings took place. - Mr. and Mrs. Heppler, Sr., enter tained their children and grand-children. Mr. and M(rs. Frank Hilton visited with their children at Needy, the horn a of both Mr. and . Mrs. Hilton's people. Mr. and Mrs' Geo. Walsh and fam ily spent the day at the homs of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Walsh. Many parties are forming in thesa days to enjoy an out-of-door lunch and to pick the wild blackberry. This fruit is ripe now, and is very abund ant. All are enjoying it fresh on their tables and many are putting it up for winter use. - Arthur A. Baldwin left home on Tuesday evening for a business trip to Portland. - Sol Struhbar took a party of friends in his auto to visit the points of int erest at Salem. Si Roth took a bicycle trip to Woodburn on the Fourth, returning on the seventh. Geo. Welsh is working for Weslev Eby. The Walsh-Eby sawmill is in opera tion. ' Farmers are cheered by the luxuri ant pasture, a result of the continued rain. Cattle are looking fine and the output of dairy products much larger than it was last year.. LOGAN The most popular greeting now is "do you think it will last?" The sun shine of course. Mr. and Mrs. H. W. Hageman will attend Clackamas County Pomona Grange at Tualatin Wednesday. EAST TAKES FRUIT AWAY ROM COAST High prices for deciduous fruits in eastern markets and a bumper yield in the Northwest have combined to malie prospects exceedingly bright for farmers in Oregon and Washing ton. Shipments from California have brought from $1500 to $2000 per car, with an estimated yield of 14,000 cars to be shipped from the state. Oif the basis of present prices the revenue from these 14,000 cars will be $28,000, 000. - Taking this as an index, Oregon and Washington crops should also yield a sum which wil go a long way Portland RailwayLight & Power Company Beaver Building, Main Street to keep the wheels of prosperity turn ing. - . The Southern Pacific company re ports the movement over its lines eastward of 129 cars during ' threa days of this month and states that shipments are now going forward at the rate of from 40 to CO cars daily. The season is two weeks earlier tlii3 year than last, and the yield is heav ier. Plums are most important in quantity, but will soon be replaced at the head of the list by pears. Next in order come peaches, together, with the last of ths cherries and apricots. Shipping began a month ago and will continue until" November, the maxi mum being reached when the grape crop is at its height in October. C. J. Jones, general freight agent of the Southern Pacific company states that the price level on deciduous fruits in the east is quite high this year and because of tha shorcage hi eastern fields promises to continue so. He says that the record sale for cherries was that of 20 cars which grossed over $69,000 One car, alone sold for over $4,000. Livestock, Meats. .'

The Ml Successful Men Are Made of The International Correspondence Schools are NOT closed in summer. All of car truly ambitious students those who think more about the increased salaries their studies will qualify them to earn, than of the imaginary discomforts of summer study devote a part of each week to their studies all summer. A student who will only study in cold weather punishes himself. Why? Because he take3 two or three times as long, in preparing him self to earn more money, as the student who studies from a half hour to an hour per day all the year round. We have enough letters on file to make several very large books, the general purport of wjiich is: "Oh, If I had only taken up that Course when I first wrote you about it! I have just missed a fine position, at largely increased wages, be cause I wasn't prepared to fill it. I lacked just the special knowledge I could have had from the Course." The writers of these letters never have to be coaxed to study in summer NOW. They knew what delay costs. Why not profit by THEIR experience, instead of taking the same bitter medicine yourself? Persons that suffer most from the heat are those that have noth ing else to occupy their thoughts. A man who is interested in his studies doesn't know how hot it is. He has no time to fret about the 1 weather. He is looking ahead a few months to the time when he can demand advancement in position and salary, because his special educa tion will have made his services of more value to his employer. It i3 no harder to read an Instruction Paper in summer than to read a news paper. How many summer days are hot enough to prevent you from reading the daily news? ' The man who promises himself that he will enroll next fall is only trying to deceive his -conscience He may not know it, but he is weakening his will-power, and it is will-power power to do what one knows he must do to succeed that makes the man. A man of weak will one who will study -some day, but not now will always be down in the world; always in "hard luck,? frequently out of work, and when employed, it will always be at low wages. He knows that a knowledge of certain subjects will fit him to earn more; yet he stills his conscience by promising to start later. Such a man isn't truly am bitious. He is one of the kind that always doejs the hard, menial work, and draws small pay all his life. Are YOU one of that kind. Are YOU truly ambitious to earn-more and make something of yourself? If you wont study in summer you are NOT. If you prefer to fret about hoc weather, rather than forget it by studying, you are NOT; The dangerous habit of "putting off" has ruined the lives of mora, promising young men than drunkenness. It is so easy to say "yes, it's what I need; I'll start tomorrow next week some other time." The difference between the man that makes a failure of life and the man that succeeds is simply this: The failure is going to begin "tomor' row;" the success begins today. The men who "get there" are those that study for self-improvement in summer, or whenever they have time. They don't let the weather keep them in inferior posiions, at small wages. They don't make excuses to themselves when they ought to be up and doing. They don't work for wages barely enough to keep soul and body to gether either. Which Kind of a Man Are You?
