THE MORXTN'G OREGONIAN, THUKSDAT. JULY 12. 1917. '4 PORTLAND SEES ITS FIRST BIG RDUND-UP BE. '1111 li lEtY GERTRUDE. F. CORBETT ooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooqooooooooooooooooo Hi aiiiiiiiiiiniiiii 13 Multnomah Field Well Adapted for Staging Contests of Cow boys and Rough Riders. BIG EVENTS ARE MANY Addison Bennett Finds Fault With Management " for Xot Taking Audiences Into Its Confidence. Suggestions Are Made. BY ADDISON" BENNETT. The Portland Round-up Association put on Its first performance in Port land at the Multnomah Field yester day afternoon, and repeated the same last evening. The weather was most auspicious and the field where the show was stag-ed Is certainly well adapted for such a performance, with the possible exception of a shortage of room for housing- the wild horses and wild steers, but that Is something that can easily be overcome. As far as the track is concerned, as well as the enclosure within the track, these are all that could be desired, while the seats are so arranged that every one , gives a full view of the entire arena. Twenty-four Acts Billed. There were 24 acts billed for yester day and a couple more were added to these, one of which, a song, "Montana," rendered on horseback by Tracy Lane, was about as well received as any "of the set acts. The published programme was as follows: No, 1 Introduction of noted riders. Xo. 2 Sons by Tracy Lane. No. 8 Cowboys 'pony race. No. 4 Trick and fancy roping. N( 0 Cowboys' relay race. No. 6 Riding bucking1 burro a. No. 7 Cowgirls' pony race. No. 8 Steer riding. No. 9 Ladles' bucking contest. No. 10 Pony express race. No. 11 Trick and fancy riding:. No. 12 Bulldogging.

No, 19 Cowboys' bareback riding. No. 20 -Cowgirls relay race. No. 21 Quick-change race. No. 23 Indian relay race. No. 28 Wild horse race. Special Bulldogglng from Maxwell ca. Much Enthusiasm Elicited. Some of the events were well con tested and elicited much enthusiasm from the audience, which numbered somewhere about 2000 people. The bucking contests were about medium, perhaps taking- the ten of them their merit was a trifle above the average, but there were no hair-raising exhibi tions for the reason that the horses that bucked the worst gave but very few Jumps before dropping Into a docile condition. That Is only to be expected when horses are frequently used for such a purpose. The management could add to the pleasure of its audiences by making the announcements more explanatory and by placing numbers on the backs of the men and women who do the stunts. These numbers are given these people in the programme, but there is no way for a member of the audi ence to tell who Is doing a stunt unless he or she knows by personal acquaint ance. Also the time of the continu ing events should be announced (if taken) and there should be some partic ulars either published upon the pro grammes or rendered audibly by the announcer as to the number of rounds of the track to be made and other con ditions of the events, and by all means an announcement should be made at the close of an event as to the winner. That certainly was not always done yesterday afternoon. Show Should Do Good Business. "With the fine talent in the way of people and good animals, well up to the average, the show should do a pood business all the week and will If the management will take their audiences a little more Into their con fidence and keep them informed on every detail of what is going on in the arena or on the track. There will be two performances each day during the week, one at 2 P. M. and the other at 8 P. M. The following were the winners In the various events yesterday after noon: Cowboys" relay race. Shorty Hall; cowgirls' pony race. Bertha Blan cett; pony express race, Jimmy Taylor; chariot race, Tracy Lane; Indian pony race, James (lhangrow; cowboys 2 Ionian race. Buff Jones; cowgirls relay race. Bertha Blancett; Indian relay race, James Ghangrow. State Buys Land for Hatchery. ROBEBURG, OrN July 11. (Special.) The state of Oregon has purchased from E.

NO CHILD ought to live with his lid off all the time. In a recent prize competition for ideas on child training a' mother gives effective testimony to the Injustice of the "come-let-us-llve-with-our-children" ' theory when carried to extremes: "Worst of all. I had no secrets. Mother helped me write the only diary I ever attempted, and corrected the spelling. Even my letters were opened, on the ground that I could have no secrets from mother. And I did not. Automatically I un burdened my soul In the half-hour at bedtime and told mother everything." Rubbing Off the Bloom. "I told mother everything." What a life! No matter how minute the de tails, how complex the situation, how sacred the experience, the child was expected to pour it out like buckshot out of a bag. Surely no human being could possibly be delicate. Impersonal, understanding enough to handle the roseleaf confessions of a little girL And so it proved. She continues: "The conviction that secrets were wicked was too strong for me. I even told her that glorious first time when the nicest boy I knew kissed me. And with the telling a new-born, wonder fully sweet and elusive thing was killed. I felt suddenly coarsened and degraded and I had felt neither with the giving of that kiss. "After that I began telling timid but quite deliberate lies as a means of self defense. Smothering; With Mother. The mother was not of a prying na ture. Her curiosity was unselfish. The child slept in a room adjoining that of her parents, with the door open, for safety. She never did up her own hair until she was 13. She was judiciously helped in everything she did. Her mother always took pains to stay at home to greet her when she came in from school. The girl was simply smothered with too much mother. . When the natural rebellion came, when the life demanded Its own In dividuality, she told lies In self-defense. This girl could never have grown un. in, Uxafc household. baA h aet Aoom aorl Thus she saved herself unto becoming and being a real person. Spiritual Bnsy-Bodylns;. I do not deny that a child should confide In his mother. For a number of years most children are communi cative to the verge of boredom. The trustworthy mother who does not give away secrets is likely to be confided in more or less always. It Is forever wise to try to stay at hand If the child wishes to Bend out a call of alarm. But It Is equally true that if a child Is ever going to be self-reliant and independent in judgment such a child must keep come things In his own breast until he has had leisure to turn them over and decide what to do with them. There comes a period when It Is un justifiable to burglarize a child's soul. At this time the busybody mother who Is a spiritual housekeeper. If she keeps the child's soul clean will only leave It empty. We want the child to be clean-minded from choice, not from ignorance. Rooms of Their Own. This girl when she herself became a mother learned a great lesson. She writes: "Our own children have abso lute privacy. They each have a room, and we knock on one another's doors. Their letters lie unopened. If I am not there when they come from . school they leave a note on the bulletin-board as to their whereabouts, and that Is all there Is to it." How heavenly! They actually knock on each others doors, without brutally trying to surprise each other In mental or spiritual undress. They do not sneak each others letters. They are really courteous and fair-minded and trustful of each other. We have a right to expect large-minded, generous spirited men dkid women from that household. Uome-Made Vacations. To the Editor: You said something the other day about being "fellow-explorers" with our children. Just how could I apply this to our vacations, which we must this year spend at home? SOPHIA W. Canoeing 1s one way. Just to follow up a winding stream near home in a quiet boat gives both the spirit and the eye of an Indian. The familiar scen ery looks so different from the river than from the road. Going to a trolley park often has n" j.l .m .an ri p "I -Ajpa4 too often neglected. The prettiest thing to do Is frequently to take a boat ride around the pond rather than to ride the noisy merry-go-round. Richard Le Gallienne says that many children spend the day at Coney Island without knowing that It is next to the oceanl And he adds: "How men flock to wonders but how little they know, or care, of Wonder." Star-gazing Is a neglected kind of exploring. It Is much more comfort able than In Winter. It comes at a time of day when one is not too ex hausted to learn something. Why not become familiar neighbors with your family of all the principal constella tions this Summer? Then there Is mental exploration, suitable to home Journeys on the porch in the coolness. Laura Spencer Porter has lately remarked that "fairy tales are a drinking cup of the mind." Why not quench the thirst and broaden the vision of your children this Summer In one of Andrew Lang s many-colored compilations? Poetry, too, takes the travelers feet off the earth.
