Pardon Is Granted.
Ttvo members of the Apostolic Faith,
cringing- under qualms of conscience
engendered by night after night of
worship at the Apostolic Faith Mission
at Front and Burnaide streets, yester
day begged Carl D. Shoemaker. State
Uame Warden, to forgive them for
violations of the state fish and game
laws committed before they were con
verted. R. E. Hoople. of 466 East Davis
street, called on Mr. Shoemaker in
person, while Ed Whitcomb. who gave
his address as Front and Burnside
streets, made his appeal by letter.
KorglveneNM for Pheasant Asked.
Mr. Hoople. a recent convert to the
faith, has called at the state game
and fish headquarters on the ground
floor of the Oregon building several
times, but it was not until yesterday
that he was privileged to see Mr.
Shoemaker in person.
"God has made a new man of me and
I want to make a confession to you
and ask you also to forgive me."
pleaded Mr. Hoople with the State
Game Warden. "1 killed a China
pheasant before the hunting season
opened last Fall and I killed another
after the season was closed."
Fish Cause Conscience rains.
Here is Mr. Whitcomb's letter word
for word as it came to Mr. Shoe
maker yesterday:
God has forgiven me all of my sins
and I want to get wright with my
fellow man and their is one thing that
lias been bothering me for a long
time and that is I caught some fish
up at Hoover. Or., about two years ago
out of season and I want to know if
you would forgive mc for the deed."
To both offenders of the law Mr.
Shoemaker gave this laconic admoni
tion: "Go thou, and sin no more."

world in the artistic decoration of
porcelains. Mrs. O'Hara conducted her
product across the country from her
home in New York to the exhibition in
California and returned with the gold
medal.
The single piece of work that won
the greatest recognition was a ceramic
e two feet by five in size. Into it
are woven scores of fables of birds.
It is painted in glowing colors and is
highly ornamental. It is an intricate
designing of birds and flowers, gay
plumed peacocks and dull owls.
In further recognition of her achieve
ment. Mrs. O'Hara has been honored by
having a membership conferred upon
her by the National Arts Society of
New York. Her work has been exhibit
ed in many museums and art institutes
in America, and journals in other coun
tries as well as America have praised
her work.
The success that Mrs. O'Hara has
achieved in the making of ceramics is
only an outgrowth of the feminine ac
complishment of china painting which
many women enjoyed a few years ago.
In common with thousands of other
women, Mrs. O'Hara painted bits of
china for herself and her friends. She
used the same simple floral designs or
conventional patterns as her neighbors.
airs, o Hara was the first to see the
commercial possibilities of ceramic
work. She began a study of landscape
painting, hoping to become an artist in
this line. Meanwhile she continued her
work on china as a means of meeting
expenses. It was originally her inten
tion to leave the decorative work when
she had succeeded in financing herself
through her study of art in America
and abroad. She had only the knowl
edge of china painting of the most ab
solute amateur, but she had a well
developed artistic instinct and she
found little difficulty in disposing of
her wares. She began teaching china
painting because it assured a little bet
ter pay for a little less time spent,
meanwhile painting pictures at her
leisure.
After many months of this kind of
work she suddenly awoke to the fact
that she had found her vocation and
had not recognized it. She became con
vinced that not landscape painting, but
decorative work was her fort, and
thereafter devoted her entire attention
to her subject. From the painting of
table china Mrs. O'Hara rapidly worked
to the finer and more decorative pieces.
She found in her new field a place for

discovered that she was almost alone in
her vocation.
Gradually a group of people interest

her. Many of her former students
undertook the more serious decorative
work. The Ceramic Society of Greater

was made president.

Mollle's Birthday Party.
OLLY was cross when she got up
one morning and nothing suited
her, and when later she tried to open
the door to the dining-room and found
it locked she began to pound on the
door and cry.
"You cannot come in now," said her
mother, opening the door a very little
and standing in front of it so Molly
could not see what was going on in the
dining-room.
Grandmother came out of her room
at the head of the stairs and called to
her, and Molly very sulkily went up
stairs. "What are you making all this fuss
over?" asked her grandmother. "You
will be sorry by and by that you have
been so naughty."
"No, I won't!" said Molly. "Mother
has no right to lock the dining-room.
I want to go in and see what she is
doing."
"You should mind your mother when
she tells you to go away,' and you will
be sorry by and by you were so
naughty. Now, be a good little girl
and sit by me and look at your book."
But Molly would not. do that. She
went downstairs again and tried the
door of the dining-room. It was still
locked, and she listened, but all she
could hear was the rattle of the dishes.
So she went down into the yard and
sat down to- think how horrid every
body was to her.
"I can't tell you now." said her
mother. "I do wish you would be a
good girl. You will be sorry if you
are not."
After lunch her mother dressed her
in her prettiest white dress, with pink
ribbons on her hair, and Molly began
to smile for the first time that day,
because she thought she was going

somewhere, but when her mother told
her not to put her hat on she began to
cry again.
The ringing of the doorbell stopped
her, and Molly heard the voices of her
playmates in the hall.
When she looked over the railing
she saw all the little girls and boys in
her neighborhood standing there look
ing up and laughing at her.
"Hello, Molly!" called one of the
boys. "I guess we surprised you, didn't
we? How old are you today?"
Then for the first time Molly re
membered it was her birthday.
They played games on the lawn and
in the hall and then the door of the
dining-room was opened and Molly
knew why it had been closed all the
morning. It was because her mother
wanted to give her a surprise. Molly
felt very sorry and very much ashamed,
and she looked at her grandm "her.
who stood in the door, but she only
smiled at her.
In the center of the table was a big
bouquet of pink roses, and at every
plate was a pink ribbon with a card
bearing the name of the little girl or
boy who was to sit there. "Pull the
ribbon," said Molly's mother, and they
all did, and from under the pink roses
came little pink packages which con
tained a handkerchief for the little
girls and a silver pencil for each boy.
There were pink ices shaped like a
rose and pink cakes, and all the sand
wiches were tied with pink ribbon, and
the candies were all pink and white,
too.
Such a pretty table it was! Every
thing just matched the ribbons that
tied Molly's hat. And after all had
eaten all they wanted the table was
cleared and a maid brought In a cake.
And such a big cake as it was! with
lighted candles around it just six of
them the number of years Molly was
old on that day, and the date, written
in pink on the frosting. When the
cake was cut and Molly cut it stand
ing on a chair there were pink boxes
for the cake to be put in so the little
guests could take it home, and each
box was tied with a pink ribbon.
They played games for awhile after
that, and when the guests went home
they were all pretty tired as well as
Molly.
That night, when Molly kissed her
grandmother good-night, she said: "I
was sorry by and by, just as you said.
Mother was fixing the dining-room to
surprise me, wasn't she? And I was
cross. I am awfully sorry."
"Tell your mother that, dear. It will
help to rest her. She worked so hard
to please you, and you were so fretful
it made her very unhappy this morn
ing." Molly did tell her mother she was
sorry, and she promised to be a better
girl in the future, and not act as she
did that morning, when she could not
