Day, the last few years, hae had a deeper meaning for most Americans than it probably has .had for several decades. The younger generations, not having known the ex perience from which it grew, could not fully appreciate its significance. But now that war in all its horrors has actually come within their ken, it is impossible for Memorial Day not to have for every one a ense of solem nity it did not have before for some. 'The knowledge of the terrible destruc tion of human life that is actually going on and of the suffering and sor row entailed brings to even the most light-hearted on this day on which 6imllar conditions are called to mind, a soberness of thought that is mak ing Memorial Day a day of reflection, a day of patriotic devotion rather than patriotic emotion. War, its causes and results, what we fought for in the conflict which Memorial -Day brings to mind, what the present war is being waged about, the ideals of government all these things are being soberly reflected upon in a way that must bring results bene ficial to the world. A people cannot conscientiously and seriously considei .such matters without some good com ing from their united, honest thought. Memorial Day therefore is not a dav We Give Trading Stamps. enthal' s Sole Agents 129 10th St., Near Wash. jno Branch hTiV, Stores mm It fays to Buy the Best I Ros GIFTED YOUNG MATROX WHO LECTURED THIS SEASON BEFORE THE PSYCHOLOGY DEPARTMENT, PORTLAND WOMAN'S CLUB. - ' - - . - ' ; v" - - ' j - - ' ' The psychology department ' of the Portland Woman's Club has Just closed a successful season with Mrs. C. B. Simmons as chairman and Mrs. Flor ence Crawford as the lecturer. Mrs. Crawford has written several songs and poems. She is editor, of the Com forter. merely of looking backward. It ie also a day of looking forward. It Is a beau tiful act to remember and honor those who fought in a righteous war, who fought to preserve a nation tha was founded to stand for. certain ideals, and to prove to all the world and to time, that these Ideals were a part of truth and so could not fail. Those who bore the brunt of those terrible days of the sixties, both men and women, are worthy of all honor. But is is worth wJiile to look for ward and to look Inward to see if we are doing our part to maintain that Union that was preserved at such cost and to uphold the ideals for which it stands. President Wilson has said, "I hope we shall never forget that we created this nation, not to serve ourselves, but to serve mankind. The United States was founded not to provide free homes, but to assert human righte." It is ideals in government and In living that we as a people stand for. And it is helpful to the realization of these ideals to give a day of sober thinking to them. And what better day than one in which we honor those who fought in a war unique In history, in that "instead of making a permanent- division, it made a permanent union," as some one has ph raced it Some may contend that it is almost too much to expect of us to live up to the thought that we as a nation were created to serve mankind. But it may be consoling to those who are not so purely altruistic to remember that in serving mankind, we. serve ourselves, and the better and more truly w serve others, the richer are the returns we receive. The higher the ideals we hold up in the matter of government, the better government we will have for ourselves. The pace we set necessarily compels us to keep step with it. Memorial Day Is a good day to take a look backward to see what the country has stood for and what its people have fought for; and to take a look forward to see if ahead of us are still the same ideals that incited our forefathers to march onward so un waveringly. WoiMENWfiOLlTlDlflEVto IJyMarieDille. Mrs. Cornelias Poillon Pottery Maker. MRS. CORNELIUS POILLON has found in the making of a beau tiful pottery the outlet for her artistic creative instincts. She Is one of the few women who have now undertaken the. making of vases and bowls as a serious occupation. She has not only discovered that it is possible to build up a handicraft that gives an outward expression of beauty, but that such a handicraft may be made a lucrative profession. Mrs. Poillon began much as other women have in her first efforts at pot tery makingc She set up her rough kiln in the cellar and turned one room of her home into a studio, where she could do her modeling. Here she worked until she succeeded in produc ing something worthy, of exhibition and, having produced it, her market opened readily, creating a "demand that constantly outstripped the supply that ehe was able to produce. She has now attained a moderate wealth and a promising future. In the beginning Mrs. Poillon fol lowed the lead of the recognized de Signers of pottery rather than strik ing out boldly for herself. She pur chased her colors ready made and car ried out the Ideas of others on tint ing and glazing. After & time she be came more sure of her ability. She studied her subject and learned formu las for the making of .various colors. She discovered that it was no longer necessary to confine herself to the ac cepted shades, but that by mixing her own pigments she was able to create hues that expressed her own individu ality. The pottery colors were made from oxides of tin, lead, iron, copper, pure gold and silver compounded with lime, nitre, sand and borax. The materials which she uses . in modeling her wares are of several dif ferent kinds of clays. One will give strength, another will cause the colors to flow and still another possesses the adhesive quality. The combination of clay used in the modeling of a form may not be exactly right for the quali ty of the coloring and a sample is tried to test it- If the sample of- col ored clay comes out of the kiln blis tered and bubbled the modeler knows that the color and clay do not fit. It is then necessary to cover the clay with a substance known as flux. An other sample is tried, often several tests must be made until a quality of color is found that will exactly fit a certain kind of clay covered with a given kind of flux. The exact formu las of the experiment are kept to be used at another time. Every particle of color and material is weighed and every- shade is measured. Eight dis tinct processes are necessary in the making of any object. Mrs. Poillon has turned her atten- tion to the making of fine tableware and is now branching out into garden ware. She has erected a kiln in the yard of her home in Boston, Mass., where figures for fountains, benches, bird baths, and garden tile are to be made. Mrs. Poillon expects soon to be able to produce terra cotta like the Italian and French. Some of Mrs. Poillon's productions are modeled from drawings of figures in the art museum. These are formed in the potter's wheel and are later glazed and tinted. IS HEALTH INSPECTORS ORDERED TO SOUTH PORTLAND. Iany Residents Said to Have Ignored Precautions Againit Spread of Scarlet Fever. Although scarlet fever is assuming the "proportions of an epidemic In South Portland, City Health Officer Marcellus reports that many of the residents of that section are refusing to obey the quarantine laws and are doing everything they can to deter the preventive measures being taken by the health bureau to stamp out the dis ease. Complaint .was made by Dr. Marcel lus yesterday to City Attorney LaRoche that efforts are made by some of the residents to keep health officers from seeing sick children and in other cases are evading and breaking quarantine by keeping quiet about the sickness and ignoring the flags. In the case of a family named Glick, at 226 Por ter street. Dr. Marcellus says such conditions have been found. It was complained by Miss Bertha Squires, school nurse, that she went to the Glick home to ascertain the rea son for the absence from the Failing school, of Eva Glick. She found the girl suffering from what she says is scarlet fever. She reported that a sis ter of the girl had been attending school daily, although the mother re ported that the girl was not living at home. Miss Squires says the girl re futed this statement and admitted she was living at home. Dr. Marcellus was later refused admittance to the place and accordingly put Tip a flag. Dr. Marcellus last night ordered all sanitary inspectors into the district to enforce the quarantine. MINE SURVEY PROMISED State Bureau to Report on Santiani District.

LAKEP0RT MAY BE REVIVED Report Says Place - May Become Summer Resort. MARSHFIELD, Or., May 29. (Spe cial.) There is a probability of Lake port, the deserted boom town, being revived, according to reports emanat-' ing from Curry County. Lakeport was founded in 1907.
