THE MORNING OREGONIAN. WEDNESDAY, - SEPTEMBER 5, 1917. 13 LIBRARIANS CLOSE ANNUAL SESSIONS Seattle Chosen for Meeting ' in 1918, With Vancouver Tentatively in 1919. iTACOMA MAN IS PRESIDENT Principal Address Made by W. Tj. Brewster Dinner Is Given at University Club and Highway Trip Is Planned for Today. Formal sessions of the Northwest Library- Association closed last nigrht with the meeting at the Central Library. Officers were elected yester day and Seattle designated as the next convention city, with Vancouver. B. C, tentatively selected for 1919. This morning the members of the as sociation throughout the Northwest will go for a trip over the Columbia River Highway. The convention has been in session here since Monday. It was considered successful, the attendance being large and the interest maintained. John B. Kiser. of Tacoma, was chosen to head the association for the ensuing year as president; Miss S. Nason, of Pendleton, first vice-president; Miss Helen G. Stewart, of Victoria, second vice-president; Miss Elizabeth Purring ton, Portland, secretary, and Charles Compton, Seattle, treasurer. Sessions were held morning, after noon and night yesterday, the morning meeting being at Reed College, where subjects of vital interest to librarians were featured. In the afternoon the convention used the Central Library building and discussed financial ' and legal features, with committee reports Interspersed. William L. Brewster, a trustee of the Portland Library Association, discussed a model law for city and county associ ations. It was the proposed measure that was introduced in the Legislature at the last session of that body and which was defeated because of opposi tion on the part of certain county library interests. Points to which ob jections were raised were as to the ation of county boards, authority as to payments of warrants by County Treas urers and the placing of selection of librarians virtually in the hands of the state library board by virtue of a sort of civil service list. Mr. Brewster defended the proposed law generally, but pleaded for some ac tion that would enable the library work In counties to be systematized. If there are weak spots in the proposed law, he said,-they should be strengthened and the measure passed. He declared that the time is soon coming when librarians will be chosen from specially prepared lists and expressed the belief that the state boards are competent to arrange these. . A dinner, was given at the University Club at 6 o'clock last night at which Mies Stewart, who is librarian at Vic toria, B. C, gave some experiences of French army work. This was followed by the night session at the Central Library and formal adjournment. PERSONALMENTION. G. A. Boner, of Joseph, is at the Kits. E. M. McLennan, of Shanlko, is at the Ritz. J. R.

When this home-made lemon lotion Is gently massaged Into the face, neck, hands and arras dally, the skin natur ally should become soft, clear and white, and the complexion dainty and attractive. What girl or woman hasn't heard of lemon Juice to remove complexion blem ishes; to bleach the skin and to bring out the roses, the freshness and the hidden beauty? But lemon Juice alone is acid, therefore Irritating, and should be mixed with orchard white this way. Strain through a fine cloth the Juice of two fresh lemons into a bottle con taining about three ounces of orchard white, then shake well and you have a whole quarter pint of skin and com plexion lotion at about the cost one usually pays for a small Jar of ordi nary cold cream. Be sure to strain the lemon Juice so no pulp gets Into the bottle, then this lotion will remain pure and fresh for months. When ap plied daily to the face, neck, arms and hands it naturally should help to whiten, clear, smoothen and beautify. Any druggist will supply three ounces of orchard white at very little cost and the grocer has the lemons. In this sweetly fragrant lemon lotion ladles can easily prepare and have an inexpensive toilet aid which perfectly satisfies their natural desire for a beautiful Bolt skin Ad, - p. .i. m. . nipt .n.JS.'J. . ivrrrisyr--w .

By interposing- technical objections, City Commissioner Kellaher yesterday prevented the City Council from revok intr the license of the Blazier pool hall and cardroom In the North End, on charges of permitting gambling-. The entire Council, except Mr. Kellaher, considered the place a gambling den and favored putting it out of business. Mr. Kellaher blocked the move by ob jecting to the ordinance and thus hold ing Its enactment up for 40 days. Policemen were Introduced as wit nesses and testified that they had played cards In the place. The game was poker and the stake was in the form of B-cent merchandise checks, one such check being given each player in the game. The winner of the gam. took all the checks and the loser took none. John Manning, attorney representing Blazier, declared that If there was any gambling about It It was gambling on the part of the patrons over whom the "house" had no control. The Council took a different view of the matter, holding that the "house" is responsible for whatever it permits Its patrons to do. As a result of the hearing Mayor Baker yesterday Instructed City Attor ney LaRoche to prepare an ordinance for submission to the Council thi morning licensing all cardrooms in the city. At present these rooms are not licensed and the Council therefore haa no control over them Individually. The Mayor's plan is to provide a small license fee and to require each room to take out a quarterly license. which may be revoked for cause by the Council at any time. This will give the Council the means of putting any cardroom out of business for cause at any time. The Council cannot do this now except in a few cases where pool halls and cardrooms have been allowed in the same' room. An ordinance has been passed now, however, requiring complete seperation of all card and ool xocut XhU leaves, cue poolroom SEATTLE HONORS QUOTA Great Patrlotlo Parade Held for 3Iea In National Draft.

LAW STOPS STATE AID zens. There were some women who had taken out their first papers several years earlier, and after Judge Tazwell ruled that they would bo entitled to pensions if they had applied for their second papers all who could do so hastily made such application. Many women with from ono to four children whose pensions were automat ically stopped by the citizenship amend ment to the pension act were in dire need of public assistance and it was necessary for the county board of re lief to aid several. A largo number of those who are now receiving aid through the board of relief have already taken out their first- papers, but they must all wait the required two years before applying for second papers and in the meantime they will be under the care of the board of relief until they can again secure pensions. Nineteen final citizenship papers were granted during August, three of them being to women. Thirty-ono first pa pers were taken out during the same month. Several Widows Deprived of Income and County Board of Relief Is Compelled to Aid Some Are to Walt Two Years. Coincident with the enactment of i law at the last legislative session deny ing mothers' pensions to all women who are not citizens of this country there is revealed in an investigation f the Multnomah County naturaliza tion bureau an unprecedented influx of women anxious to secure their first and second citizenship papers In order that they shall not be deprived of pensions as provided under the state mothers' pension act. According to the records compiled by John B. Easter, clerk of the natural ization bureau, 20 women have applied for their second citizenship papers dur ing the past three months. Of this number a majority are women who are receiving state aid under the pension law. During the same three months approximately two score women have taken out their first citizenship papers. Many are said to be doing so for the sole purpose of securing pensions. The amendment to the pension act which requires women to be citizens of the United States to benefit by the privileges of the law became effective May 21 last, and since that time nine women have taken out their second papers. The total amount received by these nine women 1 (200 a month. When the law first became operative 89 women of the county were deprived of pensions because they were not clti- "'IIP Sfei53ggf I THE DENTIST SAID' "VliEN the child is between 5 and Wl 6, watch out for the first perma- r sent molar.
