SlRfNTMDB ClIUnCH BANQUET. A. SUC-
rcfisful moil's banquet was held Inst night
by tho Sunnyslde Methodist EplPcopal
Church, and was attended by 70, including
members with their Invited guests. The
affair was for the purpose of getting the
men together for a. ?ocIaI time and to
trrncihen the "bond of orotherhood and
fellowship' with each other, as well as to
mako the guests feel at home. Until
bortly after 3 o'clock the company re
mained at the church, where there was a
fhort musical programme by the Sunny
Itlc Young "Women's Choir and Profes
sor Inrfoy. Good humor prevailed, and
Dr. Ford bubbled over with mirth, which
wns infectious. Secretary William G.
l.utz paired off the company for the
march to the banquet In the Boys' Bri-cd-
Hall, so that each guest marched
with a member. The tables were ar
rxMcetl in the form of a large cross, and
wore tastefully decorated with Oregon

Japanesb Knurr Union. The Japanese
wKo have leased the main portion of the
berry land at Russellvlllc, on the Base
Une road, and in that neighborhood, have
organized a Fruitgrowers' Association,
with a membership of 34. They have ac
complished what the original owners of
those leased lands undertook and failed
t do. for the reason they could not reach
m basis of co-operation. It Ib estimated
that the Japanese growers in that neigh
borhood alone have control of between 300
d 00 acres of the fruit lands under cul
tivation. This organization is fully offi
red now. for the purpose of purchasing
biMtcs and other supplies by wholesale,
and handling the output that they will
receive the highest market price. It is
the purpose of the organization not to cut
the price, as many thought the Japanese
growers would do, but on the contrary
It has appointed the president of the as
sociation as general manager to make
IHirchases and secure market quotations.
In order to secure co-operation for the
benefit of all growers, the association in
vhes and urges all growers the whites
to join in the movement for the purchase
if boxes by wholesale and for the better
handling of the crops. They are invited
to beoomc members of this association

pected from it.

Rescuing Wayward Boys and Girls
Work of the House of The Good Shepherd and Juvenile
Court in Starting Juvenile Unfortunates on the Upward Path
THE conduct of the House of the Good
Shepherd by the Sisters of that order
is deserving of the highest commendation.
There are at present CC girls in the insti
tution, and they arc the happiest, best
behaved lot of girlH one could find in all
the country. They are allowed reasonable
privileges by the Sisters, and on Su Pat
rick's day they put their work aside and
enjoyed a little entertainment. Officer
Hawley and Mrs. Daggett went out. ac
companied by Miss Hawley and Miss Kon-
cday, who gave the girls a little treat in
the way of vocal music, and were in turn
entertained by the singing of the music
class. Club-swinging and other accom
plishments were exhibited, and the after
noon was one of much pleasure for the
girls.
Officer Hawley knew every girl In the
Home, and it is significant of his great
success as a special probation officer that
children all love him, even after he lias
arrested and confined them in Institutions.
The Sisters were much pleased with the
enthusiastic reception given him by the
young girls, and the courteous deportment
of the latter reflected great credit on the
training they arc receiving. This training
is not confined to deportment, however,
for all brandies of housework are taught
and when a girl leaves the House of the
Good Shepherd she is fitted for service
as a domestic In the most exacting fam
ilies. Sister Rose, whose management has
made the Home so successful, intends in
stalling a thorough domestic science de
partment in the near future, so that the
girls may have a course in practical and
scientific cookery, including every branch
of the culinary art. At present the in
struction is confined mostly to general
housework, sewing and laundry work.
Beautiful needle work Is done by the girls
under the supervision of a Sister who is
an expert In this line, and much of the
work which was shown the visitors yes
terday was exquisitely done. While reg
ular dressmaking is not done ior outside
orders, the girls are taught to make their
own clothes. Embroidery and delicate lin
gerie is made to order for customers. The
laundry conducted in connection with this
institution is well known throughout tho
city on account of the excellent work It
turns out, and girls who receive a train
ing there by the Sisters are capable of
doing the highest-class worn on their re
lease from tho Home. Tne plant Is a
very large one and the extensive grounds
permit of drying clothes outdoors, wmch
Is very desirable.
A girl of 14 was pointed out by the Sis
ters as being a remarkably fine laundry
worker and capable of earning the best
wages paid, while anottier little girl ot 33
is said to be able to cut and make all her
own clothes. Such training as this for
wayward girls Is beyond a commercial
valuation, for It not only occupies their
minds and hands during their residence
at the Home but fits them for good posi
AOISICULTURAL EXPERT MAT REPORT ON
"Willamette Vallet. The Board ot
Trade is endeavoring to induce the Gov
ernment to assign an expert to study the
agricultural conditions In the Willamette
Valley, and it is probable that It will ac
complish its purpose. Word has been re
ceived from C. G. Elliott, acting chief of
the drainage and irrigation investiga
tions of the Department of Agriculture,
that if possible A. P. Stover, of the ex
periment station at Berkeley, will be as
signed to the work. , Mr. Stover conducted
a series of experiments In the Willamette
Valley last Summer. His report is now
being compiled by the Department of Ag
riculture. The Board of Trade has been
requested to furnish the Department of
Agriculture the names of persons who
would be interested In the report of Mr.
Stover. Letters have been sent to the
commercial organizations of the state
asking that names be sent to the Board
of Trade, so that they can be forwarded
to Washington.

PLAN TO HOLD CARNIVAL
Admen Propose Great Gathering: of
Manufacturers in Portland.
Representatives of the commercial or
ganizations of Portland met with the
members of the Admen's League yester
day at noon at the Commercial Club and
discussed the question of holding a Manu
facturers' Carnival in Portland May 39
26. inclusive. The commercial organiza
tions will assist In tho movement and will
appoint committees.
Fletcher Linn, president of the Manu
facturers Association, assured those pres
ent at the meeting yesterday that the
manufacturers would take an active part
in malting the carnival a success.
Many different features have been sug
gested, but as the movement Is still Jn
Its Infancy, little or nothing has been
decided upon as yet. It is proposed to run
excursions to Portland during ths carnival
from Washington, Idaho and Oregon. Al!
manufacturers In the Northwest will be
invited to participate.
A special meeting of the Admen's League
will be held Friday night at the Com
mercial Club to devise ways and means
for the holding of the carnival.

tions when they become sufficiently trust
worthy to go out into the world again.
"J have been an officer for many years,"
said Mr. Hawley after the visit, "but
every time I go to the Houso of the Good
Shepherd I am more and more astonished
to see what the Sisters accomplish with
those girls. If you could sec the differ
ence between some of them when I take
them there and after a few wecKs' resi
dence, you would not believe It possible
to make such changes In them."
One of the most peculiar cases which
the Juvenile Court has ever handled came
up last week. There was no charge ot
delinquency against the four children, "who
range in age from 4 to 13 years, and It
was hard to determine just how to record
the matter. "It is the greatest mixture
of colossal Ignorance and affection I ever
saw." said Mrs. Daggett, after she had
left the little ones In care of Mrs. Nlsley.
at the Detention Home, "and while my
heart fairly bleeds for the father of these
children. I am happy to say that they aro
under Mrs. Nislcy's care."
This father and his family of children
arrived in Portland from tho mountain
dlstricLs of Arkansas one day last week
and took up their abode in a room In the
North End. Officer Hawley heard that
the four children were living apparently
alone next door to a saloon and dance
hall and that conditions In the so-called
homo wcro bad. so he and Mrs. Daggett
Investigated. The -story which they got
In full after several visits was to the
effect that the mother has been dead sev
eral years, and the father has taken en
tire charge of his little brood. While in
their mountain home he kept them con
stantly with him. even In the fields while
he was at work. One might say they
have been raised under tho trees. His
affection for them is unusual, but his Ig
norance and lack of cleanliness has left
them In a terrible condition. They speak
the language of the mountain folks, know
not a letter or figure, and bad never expe
rienced a bath. Although the father has
regular work and makes sufficient to care
for them regularly, they have lived on
cold food purchased at stands, the fathor
not seeming to realize that he could em
ploy a cook or board at a restaurant.
They all had their first hot. well-cooked
meal In four years yesterday, and it was
pitiful to see their eager enjoyment of
the food. The first bath and clean clothes
were also on the day's programme, but It
took much assurance on the part of Mrs.
Nisley and Mrs. Daggett to persuade the
smaller children that it would not hurt
them.
"I ain't never'been away from them air
chll'un a night in my life afore." said the
fathor. as he prepared to leave, "but I
guess maybe this Is the best plan, artcr
all. as I ain't got nobody to leave 'cm
with, an I kaln't take 'cm with mc when
I go to work here In the big town. But

He paid their board In advance and left.
TABLES THE RESOLUTIONS
MEDICAL SOCIETY REFUSES TO
VOTE OX LODGE PRACTICE.
Much-DIsctscd Matter of Reorgani
zation Along Broader Lines Also
Postponed by Physicians.
Last night meeting of the Portland
City and County Medical Society brought
' and contract nrnptlrr smonr nlivsicinns.
An attempt to bring before the meeting
the resolutions which were Introduced by
an appointed committee recently was
promptly voted down, and the expression
of the society as a body on this Impor
tant subject was Indeiinltely postponed.
This lack of action was a disappointment
to a number of the medical men present
as they desired to have the matter set
tled without further delay.
The most important subject which came
before the society was the question of re
organization. Some time ago the proposi
tion of organizing a big society which
would not exclude any physician holding
a license to 'practice was brought before
the Portland City and County Society
and the matter seriously discussed. It
had many supporters, and Just as many
opponents. Some claimed that It was not
just to bar any reputable physician who
was ' licensed to practice In the county
from the benefits to be derived from such
an organization, while others claimed
that many held licenses who were objec
tionable as members of such a society.
The arguments were waniu and the mat
ter was freely discussed, both In and out
of meetings.
It is the supposition that the plan for
this general organization grew out of the
charges recently made by Dr. McCormack,
of Chicago, who claimed that there were
cliques In the medical profession of Ore
gon which were detrimental, not ethical
and caused a lack of harmony in all lines
of practice. No member of the City and
County Society will acknowledge that the
proposition had this origin, but whether
it did or not, it did not have enough sup
porters to carry it through, and the pro
posed mass meeting for the purpose of
organization was Indefinitely postponed.
An organization on the broad lines pro
posed would include homeopaths and
eclectics. The question whether osteo
paths would be admitted proved a stum
bling block, and there are other practi
tioners who might come In under general
licenses who would be objectionable to
some members of the Portland City and
County Medical Society. It seems "prob
able that the society will continue as It
now stands and that outsiders will have
to content themselves with looking on. or
organize Independently.
Dr. J. N. Coghlan read a paper last
night on "Acute Inflamatlon of the Ac
cessory Nasal Sinuses," which was tnor
oughly discussed after the reading.

Investigation of four cases of diphtheria
last week brought to light a case of the
terrible devastation which women and
drink can bring to a family. A little over
a year ago the family in question was
living happily, owned a splendid home,
and the father had a good business and
several thousand dollars In the bunk. To
day he Is a common drunkard on the
streets, and the wife and her four bed
ridden children are living In a shed which
used to be their chlckcn-house during
their prosperity. The home Is occupied
by strangers, and the heart-broken moth
cr sees them come and go from the win'
dow of her miserable abode. The father
docs absolutely nothing toward their sup
port, and it became necessary for her to
receive public charity. The children are
reported as being out of danger, but still
very ill.
W. O. Nlsley. of the Detention Home,
run in connection with the Juvenile Court,
has a magic about him where small boys
arc concerned which makes them besr to
be allowed to remain In his home after
their terms expire. If the mothers of the
wayward children of Multnomah County
could handle them even half so well as
Mr. Nlsley. the Juvenile Court would havo
to close lis doors for lack of business.
He is now looking forward to the season
when the schools arc closed and the boys
on probation will have to be amused or
occupied in some way to keep them from
lapsing into their old habits. Two base
ball teams have been decided upon as
good, wholesome amusement, and the 40
boys now on probation are excitedly dis
cussing the prospective nines and their
work.
The mcrcahnts of Portland have ever
