LEGISLATORS ASKED TO AID Point Is Made That Oregon Is Only Place- In Union . Where Modern Legislation Has Not Been En acted Success Is Cited. lttrs pointing out that Oregon is the only state in the Union without a modern kindergarten law were sent to all members of the State Legislature yesterday by the Portland Kinder garten Council, which is back of the bill just Introduced In tne Legislature. The letters are intended to pave the way for the fight for the bill. Oppo sition to it has sprung up, and, accord ing to Mrs. 3. M. Blumauer, one of the member of the Kindergarten Council, misleading estimates as to the cost have been made. The Kindergarten Council cites state ments by the Department of the In terior and the Department of Educa tion of the National Government call ing attention to Oregon's place as the only state without a public kinder garten law. Mrs. Harriett Hickox Heller is president of the Kindergarten Council, and other officers are: Mrs. S. M. Blumauer and Miss Valentine Prlch ard, vice-presidents; Mrs. Arlstene Kelts, treasurer; Mrs. Alan Welch Bmith, secretary, and Miss Ethelwynne Harris, corresponding secretary. Mrs. Robert Tait is legislative chairman. First Year Cost S6000. "It is not ttue that the kindergartens would cost $300,000 to M0O.O00 a year," said Mrs. Blumauer. "We have ascer tained from school officials here that the first year the cost would not ex ceed 16000. Seattle has eight kinder gartens, and the cost for the eight Is only $20,000. Seattle has had the sys tem for eight yeans. This bill was brought up really at the instigation of the National Department of Educa tion, which made a recommendation through P. P. Claxton, United States Commissioner of Education, and Wil liam T. Harris, former United States Commissioner of Education. Mr. Clax ton said: "The kindergarten ought to become a part of the public school system in every city, town and village in the country.' Dr. Harris said: "The kindergarten is the grandest system of education ever devised by man.' Portland Survey Quoted. "Our own Portland School Survey paid: "There can no longer be any ques tion of the value of kindergarten in struction as the first stage in city pub lie school system; its value has been demonstrated abundantly during a pe riod of more than 25 years.' We are going to fight hard for this and we have the mothers back of us." With the letters sent to legislator yesterday went a" pamphlet of Indorse ments of the public kindergarten sys tem made oy various school superin tendents who have had experience with It. Among these are: J. M. H. Fred- prick, of Cleveland, O.; C. Edward Jones, of Albany, N. Y.; J. V. Brennan Ironwood, Mich.; Jeremiah Rhodes, of Pasadena, Cal.; H. F. Leverena. ot fchebogan. Wis.; Gerard T. Smith, Pe oria. 111.; F. H. Beede, New Haven Conn., and A, E. Kagel, of Milwaukee, WIB, Provisions of Bill -Cited. The bill brought up in Oregon Is fashioned after the California law and is as follows: "Section 1. The Board of Directors of any school district having 20.000 children of school age, or over. In this state shall, upon petition of the par ents or guardians of 25 or more chil dren between the ages of 4 and 6, re Biding within one mile of any ele mentary school building situated in euch city, establish and maintain kin dergartens; provided, that not less than three nor more than five klndergart ens shall be established and maintained the first year when requested by above method, and provided further that the number of additional kindergartens which ehall be established and main tained during any particular school year shall be determined by the Board oi directors of the school district.

"Not one Is really living until he Is so doing his share in the work of hu manity that God is inevitable in his life, instead of being a mere con venience in It. "God brought us Into the world to succeed and we must not make a small thing of our success. It is all right to be successful in material things, but material values must not be confused with spiritual values and material suc cess must not be mistaken for real suc cess. "There are men in the world who are too great to make money. "Our natural senses do not make a world big enough for a breathing place for man's soul. The visible universe Is not so great as the invisible and man is a part of the invisible universe more than of the visible. "Tour success is to be measured by a simple rule, and It does not depend upon how much money you have made, or how successful your neighbors may think you to be in a material way. "If you haven't made the material contribute to the spiritual in proportion as God wills, you are a materialist and, in the sense of the reality of life you are a failure.

What cared a lean coyote from the Walla Walla country for the whims of a group of millionaires eager for tne cnase? While Harry Whitney Treat, wealthy sportsman, and other members of the Seattle Hunt Club swept over the Stellacoom prairies Saturday in Dursult of the coyote he coolly made friends with "Mystery" Treat s noblest hound, and for miles they ran shoulder to shoulder. At last the supposedly un tamed resident of the cactus plains was found resting under a tree. As a reward for his unselfishness in not forcing the hunters to follow him fur ther he was taken to the city in Mr. Treat's limousine. The hunt was well planned and would have worked out beautifully had hound and coyote not become pals. At any rate it was considered a Jolly lark for the 40 men and women participating.
