In recognition of apple day, a name card in the shape of an apple was pinned to each girl as she entered, and this plan made formal introductions un necessary.

Mrs. Pauline Miller Chapman will sing Doms BlafIeS Advice. A WarDing to Travelers. UCH has been written on this subject," a woman writes me. "but not enough, for often one hears the cry, 'Why didn't I know? Why was I not told of the danger? Miss Blake, I will tell a personal experi ence which was a warning to me and has helped me to help others, and through your department still others may be warned. I was coming from Makena to Chi cago, and as I entered the car a fine- looking man came in and took the seat across the aisle. Soon he asked if my brother's name was G. W. D 1 said yes. He said he was well ac quainted with him. I said my brother had many acquaintances I knew noth ing of. He then said my brother and he were to meet at a hotel for lunch. " "Will you go with us?" he asked. 'It will be most pleasing to us. You can go in my auto. It will be waiting for me at the depot. I thought, of course, it would be nice to see my brother a little while. "'When the car whirled into the depot a policeman stepped up to me in the car and said, "Lady, where do you live?" I said, 'In Aurora.' I said I was going to stop and get a few things in Chi cago and go home on the 4 o'clock train. ' 'You can get a car for Aurora in five minutes,' the policeman said. I will see you on the car. You don't know Chicago.' He was a policeman or I should never have - thought of minding him. I asked him why, how ever. Just then I looked through the side glass and saw the man that wanted me to go with him looking mad and ugly. I then said, "Yes. I will go home!' The policeman said, 'I will see you on the car and speak to the conductor.' Even then I did not understand. "Before I got home 1 began to won MADE INTERESTING REPORT ON der whether the policeman was afraid of that man, or what! When I arrived home my brother was there. I said, 'Why, a man told me you were to be at the S Hotel for lunch and in vited me to go, too.' I told him what he said about his auto and that I had almost concluded to go, but the po liceman stopped it. I thought every one had to mind the policeman. My brother placed both hands over his face and said. "That policeman saved you. How many thanks he should have if x could know him.' ' . "Well, I have learned a lesson that I wish all others could learn and be safe in getting the lesson, for one such will last a lifetime." She Is Sorry. , "Dear Miss Blake: I am a young lady of 18 and have been keeping com pany with a fellow quite a long time, and have quarreled with him. I have told him not to call on me any more. I am sorry I have done this. Do you think it is right for me to apologize, as I love this fellow very much? "WORRIED." Why don't you write the boy a little note and ask him to call upon you? When he comes, act as though nothing had happened, and he will take that as a sign that you wish to continue the friendship. He's Jealous. "Dear Miss Blake: I am 18, and have been going with a steady boy for three years, and he is now 21. 1 am puzzled about him, and always in a quarrel. I never go out in the evening except when I go once or twice a week with him. He does not go out except when he is with me, and of course he expects me to do the same. I have a very nice girl friend that T used to go to school with, and she has asked me many times to go with her, but I cannot. He thinks the girl is nice, but he is jealous of me when I go out without him.. We quarrel over little things that don't amount to anything because he is very quick tempered and gets sore at little things I do and say. I have tried in every way to get along with him, but it seems impossible. We have been engaged a year and a half, and I cannot decide if I should marry him or not. I do not want to get married yet, as I am too young, but I wanted to know what I should do. Do you think he will change after he is married, or not? I love him very 'much. When he feels ugly and quarrelsome how should I treat him? Should I talkvto him and cheer him, or can you advise something better? My folks all like him and I know he likes me, for he has given me many pretty things and is good to me in every way, but when he feels mean and ugly he always tells me things are against him and he will never get any headway. He is assist ant cashier of a bank and has been for some time.- He has traveled very much since 1 have gone with him, and when I ask him if I can go to St. Paul and visit my cousins whom I haven't seen for many years he doesn't like it and would rather have me home. Do you think he is reasonable, or should I go? I am staying at home helping my moth er, and father said if I wanted to go he would give me money to go. Am I doing wrong if I go? A. L. M." Unless the young man 'gets over his jealousy and his quarrelsome nature you undoubtedly would not be happy as his wife. When you know that he is in quarrelsome mood simply refuse to talk to him until he gets over being unpleasant. Of course, you will try to keep him cheerful, but when you have failed in your attempts to make him act like a human being simply re fuse to have anything to do with him until he grows sensible. There is no reason in the world why you should not visit your cousins if you wish to. He has no right to dictate to you. It would be a good lesson to the boy for you to show your inde pendence by doing as you wish. Of course you would not be doing wrong by going. Be just a little independent with him, not too independent, but just enough to show him that he cannot dictate to you. Of course you will want to please him, but let him realize that you have yourself to think of as well as him. Admires Her Picture. "Dear Miss Blake: Recently I saw a picture of a young lady whom I admire greatly, but have never met. Would It be proper for me to write her? She is a great friend, of my cousin's and I am very much interested in her. I have been keeping company with a young lady for about a year. Do you think I - should give her up for the sake of one I have never met? A. W. S." Why don't you ask your cousin to take you and introduce you to the girl whom you think you would like?- Don't think of giving up the friendship of one girl merely because you believe yourself to be in love with the pic ture of another. Wait until you see her before you give your heart to her entirely. Wants Her to Call. "Dear Miss Blake: I am in love with a man of my age, 35, and he is with me. There is a mutual understanding between us and he wants me to call at his home to see his sister. I was afraid of going too often. Now, his sister tella me of a girl who calls and tries to go with him, and it worries me very much. Would it be all right to go often and call htm over the phone once In a while? He doesn't call on me. but he said he will. Is it all right for me to ask. them to take dinner with me? i ' D." It Is perfectly proper for you to in vite the man and his sister to dinner at your home. Do not believe every thing that you hear about girls calling upon him. Girls do not do that sort of thing. Unless you are engaged to be married to him you should not do it either. You only lose his respect by pursuing him. - She Unxka at Him. "Dear Miss Blake: I am a boy of 18 and in love with a girl of 16 or 17, although I have no intention to marry till at least the age of 23. Every time I ask her to go to some place, such as go for a walk or sit together by the lake, though she never refuses, she al ways laughs, which seems to- be that she is trying to make a fool out of me, and then she would go with me. - She sometimes fools with me as if I was a girl friend of hers. Any time I fool with her she would laugh and wave her finger at me (which means, don't do it again.) If any other boys does it she gets mad at them. Sometimes, when I attempt to hold her hand, she would laugh as' if I was only a little boy, although she never attempts to pull her hand away. She gets a high average at school. Do you think she is trying to make a fool out of me, or do you think she cares for- me? If a girl has recognized a boy first, is it proper for the boy to stop and start to talk with her about something he wishes to know? ANXIOUS. The girl probably considers you a jolly friend with whom she can act as he would with another girl. Why don't you ask her to go to the theater some time or to some entertainment? If you never take her anywhere except to walk how -is she to know that you care to have her accept your invita tions? Of course it is proper for a boy to stop and talk to a girl if she has spoken to him and if it is necessary that he talk to her. However, pro tracted conversations on the street are neither necessary nor proper. 7b-NlGHT' Sfa3 VJ. Lf JOB. How Joel and Amos Found Hume. fart i OEL and Amos were brothers, and when their father and mother died they were all alone in the world. They did not have even an uncle or aunt to whom they could go for a home. And the little house in which they lived on the edge of a forest was so miserable and old it seemed ready to fall apart, but the boys patched it as well as they could, and Amos said he thought they could find wood enough blown from the trees to store away for tho Winter, for they were so poor they did not even havo a hatchet. 'But what will we eat, brother?" asked Joel. "We must have food as well as fuel." "I had not thought of that," replied Amos. "'We have so little at any time we should be able to get along some how." So the brothers set out, but they walked a Ion? way into the forest without seeing anyone, and had it not ben for the berries they found they would have starved. The second day, just as night came on, Joel said to his brother: I am sure I see smoke in the distance, and it must be a house." The smoke did come from a chimney. Just as Joel thought, and when they came near to it they saw a strange looking house, built of stone and iron bars at all the windows. They heard someone coming in an swer to tneir pounding, and they felt sure now of something to eat. but when the door was opened they started back, and both boys felt a little fright ened at the strange creature that stood before them. But before they had recovered enough to ask for shelter and food the strange creature said: "Come right in. my dears, and eat and drink, for I know you must be tired." The queer-looking creature was not much ' taller than Joel or Amos, but was much larger and broader; in fact. he. looked as big as three men all in one, and his arms and hands were so large he could hold a boy on each which was just what he did as soon as he closed the door. Then he spread out a hand toward each boy and said: "Jump on; I will carry you upstairs.'" Joel and Amos obeyed this strange command, and in a minute 'the boys were being carried up a long flight of stone stairs on he band of the queer man. When they reached the top he let the boys slide off his hands to the floor and then they noticed for the first time that their host had four feet and four legs. His eyes were so small they could hardly be seen, and his hair grew so long it fell over his shoulders and was white. His face was so fat it resembled a big pumpkin more than anything else, in color as well as size, only it was larger than any pumpkin the boys had ever seen. Joel was the first to speak to this strange creature. "We are lost in the forest," he said, "and we have had little to eat since yesterday. Would you be so kind as to give us food and shelter for the night. We will do any work you may have. We can dig in the garden or chop wood to pay yon for what you give us." "That you shall." said the. man, "and I will give you food and shelter and you shall dig for me until you find it." The boys did not ask what he meant by this strange promise, for before they had time to think they were again picked up by the strange man and this time he carried them by their coat collars along a dark passage, Both boys were terribly frightened, but when they smelled food, as they did in a minute, they thought it might be only the strange way their strange host had of treating his guests, and by the time they were put on their feet they were not at all frightened. There is your supper; eat all you want, said the man. At a long table in the room where they stood were 10 boys about the same age as Joel and Amos, and they were eating from big, steaming dishes. Joel and Amos did not need a second bidding, and when they had found bowl and spoon and were eating, the queer man went out and left them alone. Joel and Amos were eating all the time, so that when old Pumpkin Head opened the door in a few minutes they were well filled and ready to work. although they thought it strange to be working by candle light and wondered where, they were to dig. "Come along, now, all of you lazy bones." said old Pumpkin Head, and he drove the boys in front of him with a long whip he carried. But when they reached the top of the stairs all the boys stopped, and old Pumpkin Head went in front of them and spread out his big hands. This time he took two boys on each hand and carried them down the stairs, returning until all were placed on the ground. Joel and Amos had noticed the floor was covered with boards when they came in. but now it was one big hole. with the sides wide enough to stand on. Old Pumpkin Head took each boy and dropped him into the hole, and they all began to dig, and soon I will tell you how they worked and what happened to make all the boys, happy.

Of ficlala of State Federation . ot Women Clnba Deny Koa-PartiMa Judiciary Measure IndoraemenC as Announced in Voters Pamphlet. M. tor.) The legislative committee ot the State Federation of Women's Clubs desires to call "the attention of the public and of the clubwomen ' to a statement in the argument for the non-partisan judiciary measure on page 36 of the voters' pamphlet. It says: "This measure has been In dorsed by the State Bar Association, the State Federation of Women's Clubs ... at their annual meet ings." This is a misleading statement. The State Federation, at its meeting in 1913, indorsed the principle of a non-partisan judiciary in the follow ing resolutions: "Resolved, that we. the State Fed eration of Women's Clubs, urgently re quest that like clubs, associations and organizations that are working for the uplift of the people, be requested to initiate a bill removing the judiciary of tho State of Oregon from political influence, making the same non-political, and providing for. placing on the ballot the names of proper per sons for Judicial positions without ref erence to political affiliations. Adop tion recommended. Carried." The measure, Nos. 324-325, as it stands, was never submitted to the Federation, nor would it have received the indorsement of the legislative com mittee, for the following reasons: It amends the direct primary law and we do not think that; law should be tinkered with in the interests of any group of candidates. It exempts cer tain candidates from the necessity of going before the voters at the primary election. We require candidates for any petty office to hold their records up to the scrutiny of the voters on two separate occasions, but in this meas ure we are asking the candidates for the most Important offices in the state. the Judges, who pass upon the life and liberty of the people, to submit them selves for but a 60 days consideration. We do not think the claim is a proper one that this law is similar to the Washington law. That state re quires the - candidates for the ju diciary to appear on a non-partisan ballot sheet at the primary election. We do not think that the nomination feature is sufficiently guarded. Owing to the ease with which hordes of of ficeseekers might become candidates for these high offices, there would be no inducements for serious, right minded men to become candidates, even under the "non-partisan" hypnosis. It does not commend itself to us as worthy of the object for which it stands. A Multnomah County jurist told a story at a meeting the other evening about a state with a negro population, which could vote but could not read. They (the negroes) could only recog nize Lincoln's picture at the head of the column. They forthwith voted for the -picture and also voted in the group under it. we are being shown a law which has "non-partisan" at the head of the column. Under the spell of the word, shall, we vote in the law? MILLIE R. TRUMBULL. Chairman Legislative Committee State Federation Women's Clubs. SARAH A. EVANS. President State Federation Women's Clubs. WAR VETERANSF0R BOOTH Horace V. Grnbbe Tells of Candi date's Fine Qualities. Civil War Veterans and Northwestern pioneers in all parts of Oregon and even some outside the state are appealing to the public to support Robert A. Booth, the Republican nominee for the United States Senate. As an evidence of this sentiment is a communication recently sent to The Oregonian by Horace V. Grubbe, who fought in the Union Army from 1861 to 1865, and who first met Mr. Booth as a student at the old Umpqua academy, in 1868. "As a school boy," he writes, a more studious, diligent, honest or manly lad could not be found. I was with him for three years and I surely know whereof I writ-rrOf his honesty, in tegrity ana nis-true laitniuiness to nis friends and his work. 'And since our ways parted in 1871 I have watched his career as a business man. His honest efforts, his true pur poses in trying to help his fellow men. his manliness and his true nobility of character must come from ancestral lineage. I knew his parents well. And his father should be called 'The Grand Old man of Oregon.' He now Is a nona genarian and I hope he. may live to see his noble son elected to the highest office within the gift of the people of Oregon. "Robert A. Booth's life and his career have been as an open book. have seen his life in all its turns as school janitor, farm boy, range rider, sawmill man and as a leader in the legislative halls of Oregon. I consider him a prince among men and if the people of Oregon send him to the Senate I know he will not be derelict in his duties. "Some Oregon voters may think that I am "chipping in' where I have no business, since I am a citizen of the State of Washington, but I am eager to have Robert A. Booth and the Repub lican party victorious. MILITIAMEN MEET AGAIN Company 10, Third Infantry, Has Re union at Armory. Company E, Third Infantry, Oregon national ouard, assembled at the Ar mory Thursday night for a reunion to mark the beginning of the Winter course of instruction. Songs, speeches and music had full swing, and a mock court-martial unmercifully punished all who had been guilty of misdemeanors during the past year.

The military work scheduled for the coming Winter will begin with com pany close order movements and prac tice in bayonet fencing. Next Spring the military instruction will be along the more elaborate lines of extended order work, practical battle move ments, field sketching and. " patrol work. PAVING FRAUD IS ALLEGED Lombard Charges That Alameda Park Land Was Assessed Doable. B. M. Lombard appeared as inter vener yesterday in a suit Died three weeks ago by r. G.

Patent Office facture. Get the genuine, made only by Walter Baker & Co. Ltd. Established 1780 ninth street, between Shaver street and Regent s drive. Mr. Lombard alleges that the Warren Construction Company, through fraud, and in collusion with the officials of the city, during the late Summer of 1912 put through the City Council and the offices-of the City Auditor and the City Engineer formal estimates, affi davits, etc., covering the paving of a street that had been paved six months earlier. , Conspiracy between city officials and the Warren Construction Company is alleged by Mr. Lombard. He sets up the belief that paving in the 'Alameda Park district cost the property owners 145.000 more than the actual cost of the improvements and that this 145.000 was divided by individuals and did not go to the paving company. A thorough investigation into the paving of streets in that district of the city is asked and that the alleged fraudulent proceeding he refer to be set aside.

Keep Your Lungs Strong This advice is doubly important with the knowledge that every three minutes some one in the United States succumbs to consumption and many refuse to realize they are amicted until it is too late. It is after colds or sickness, from over work, confining duties or when general weakness exists that tubercular germs thrive because the resistive powers of the body are weakened. Only with fresh air, sunshine and abundant rich blood can one hope to arrest their progress, and the concen trated fats, in Scott's Emulsion furnish fuel for rich blood, and its rare nourish ment helps strengthen the lungs while it builds up the forces.
