One of the most gratifying signs of national health Is the increased sale of American Roods la all the marts of the world. While there has been a slight decrease on a few items, there has been a great gain on the whole. Take the sale abroad of American boots and shoes, for example. Concerning this a recent government bulletin gives tbe following facts: Tbe American shoe manufacturer Is extending hU sales lu all parts of tbe world. In the fiscal yeur 1SS0 we ex ported less than 400,000 pairs of boots and shoes; In 1800. 000.0O0 pairs; In l!)O0. over 3.000,000 pairs; lu in)5. over C.OoO.Oini pairs; In 1910. over 7.000.000 paint, and in the calendar yeur which ends Dec. 31 tbe number will exceed 8,000.000 pairs, to say nothing of the million pairs going to Porto Itico and Hawaii. These figures relate to boots and shoes of leather, while If to this we add those of India rubber we get an additional 3,000,000, bringing the tot ii I number of American taude boots and shoes passing out of continental Culled States In 1011 up to an average of n million pairs per moutb against about on If a million per annum twen ty years ago. This Increase, tt should be remem bered, has come in tbe face of a large manufacture In foreign countries of boots and shoes called "American" manufactured by foreign workmen and of foreign material, but upon American patterns and following American methods of manufacture. It is thus probable that tbe number of boots and shoes of American type and thus American In the sense of form and method of manufacture sold in foreign countries Is very much greater than that Indicated by the mere figures of exportation. It Is apparent that In more ways than by the spread of our democracy and Invention we are adding to the world's understanding.

The former followers of his distinguished nephew might tell him. Pr. Woods Hutchinson says that mince pie Is "an easily assimilable polysnchrld carbohydrate of highly ca loric efllolpney." That accounts for the nightmares it causes. A New York lawyer had his voice restored by hypnotism. Always thought there were bad things about the prac tice of hypnotism.

That malady which is called "calf love" Is show ing signs of becoming epidemic, so I'rofesHor McLougliltn stated, ami the tencbers are also handicapped by the fact that somu of the youths are looking upon the wine when it Is red, or nt least upon other and equally harmful beverages. Also an Increased parental restraint Is need ed, according to the speaker, In keep ing the young folks nt home In the evening instead of permitting them to run loose on the streets as late as they may wish. This statement to the parents was brought out In the course of the dis cussion on the selectl n of proper fic tion in the schools, the Professor maintaining that the teachers were not able to do their best for the scholars when the parents did not do their part. Mr. Simons.)!), who was the tlrst speaker, thought that some of the fairy stories taught In the primary grades were unsuitable and In some cases Injurious. Me read ft couple of selections. This was followed by a short speech by Professor Coail, who pointed out that children of the pri mary grades are nt an age when they practically demand fairy stories. Professor tilbson also spoke along the same lines, although both ad lull ted that the teachers must use their Judgment In selecting stories to be read. These nddresscs were lis tened to with Interest by the club tnemlM'rs and others present. They were 'followed by a general discus slon along the same lines. FAREWELL RECEPTION GIVEN REV. AND MRS.

LIGHTING TALKS Number 5 The fundamental considerations for any public utility corporation engaged in the upbuilding of permanent business rest upon the basis of efficient service and fair return upon the company's investment and co-operation with the general public in the upbuilding of the community. These guiding principles constitute the company's public policy. They benefit not only the company but the community at large. The company and its predecessors have done, and are doing, pioneer work in building up an electric light and power business in Hood River and in stimulating the de velopment of this city and the surrounding country, the growth and development of which will inure to the mutual benefit of both the people and the company. This company has provided and is now furnishing electric light and power service for the city of Hood River and surrounding country that cannot be excelled in any community of similar size in the Pacific Northwest. Our lines extend out over both sides of Hood River Valley, and furnish these rich sections of territory with a splendid light and power service -something that is enjoyed by few rural communities. Our patrons in Hood River Valley are enabled to have at their command these comforts of the city and at the same time enjoy the advantages of country life. Thus, by promoting the welfare and comfort of residents of the valley, we believe we are helping to build up Hood River, as the prosperity of any city is largely dependent upon the prosperity of the surrounding country. The management of this company knows that the only way to get a square deal is to give a square deal. Our rates are not exorbitant, and we can justify them to the satisfaction of any fur minded person. That our service is first class is attested by the fact that during the recent storm when many electric light and power companies in all parts of the country were demoralized and out of business, this company's service was uninterrupted. We believe that we are entitled to the respect and confidence of the public, and we want the co-operation of every customer, big and little, for a bigger, brighter and better Hood River.
