THE approach oi tne aaie xor in t t r , . C.i. ITnlr 1r tht. I signal for a flood of Inquiries regard ing that important exhibit the "bet ter babies" contest. O. M. Hummer, superintendent of the eugenics expo sition, has arranged all the details for the event. Dr. Mary V. Madigan will have charge of the eugenics de partment and Mrs. W. W. Williams will superintend the child welfare section. Governor West will make,the presenta tion of the cash prizes and the hand some silver cups that are to be given to the babies making high scores. The work done in Oregon In the matter of eugenics is attracting at tention of students and mothers, phy sicians and welfare workers all over the United States. Contest Attracts Physicians, In speaking of the approaching baby contest. Dr. Madigan said recently: "It is gratifying to note the statewide Interest manifested in the tests to be made at the fair at Salem. Physicians throughout the state have responded with enthusiasm to the Invitation to be present and assist in examining the babies physically and mentally. Nearly 60 physicians have registered as ex aminers. The $700 worth of silver cups have arrived and are on view at a jewelry store In this city and the mothers are anxious to nave meir cuu- In the contest for the prizes. The tests will be made carefully, and as the Oregon babies are so beau tifully healthy It will be a difficult task to classify them. They will re quire the most minute attention. Among the mental tests are the re quirements at various ages regarding how much the child notices, whether or not it is Interested In Its surround ings. If It seems nervous, or how quickly It becomes familiar with ob jects around it. At 6 months the score card notes that the baby should sit alone, play with simple objects, grasp for a watch, look In the direction of unexpected noises. At 1 year It should stand with support, be interested in other chil dren and in surroundings, and so on the card gradually shows the advance ment that a normal child snouia mane. Parents Can Judge Their Own. All narents should obtain one ot these score cards, and If they cannot take their children to the specialists or to the educational bureau to be ex amined they can themselves in a large measure Judge of the child s progress. The physical tests tell of the oondi rm nf the nose. ears, mouth, lungs, stomach, limbs, teeth every part of the body. The conditlo"n of the mus cles, the general nutrition of the body, the presence of adenoids and other de tails are to be determined only by ex perts. The Parents' Educational Bu and the county fairs have ex amined srares of children lately. At the bureau in the past week 60 chil dren, were entered, and all stood the teste well. Those who were in any wav defective had the advantage of free advice from the examiners.

Adv. virrfinu of Former Head of Spiritualist Association Furnish Further Evidence. Deputy Constables Hunter aiyl Nich olson were offered occult aid yester day in elucidating the past of Benjamin F. Atherton, the former head of the State Spiritual Association, now held in the county Jail on a charge of having "buncoed" Mrs. Alice Snyder out of $1300. At the end of a thrilling and exhausting seance, they were Informed that he Is the proprietor of a counter felting plant located on the Sandy River, and though they have little faith In mystics, they intend to go to the place pointed out and explore It. First information of the new deal ings of Atherton were received In tele phone calls from a mission worker, who formerly visited tne county Jail on behalf of James Dalton, a convict She invited the officers to a seance yesterday, and while under the influ ence of what she designated a "spell," she told of the past dealings of Ather ton, which read like fiction. Further Information about Atherton came last night from A. L. Hassler, connected with the postoffice depart ment, and H. C. Thorcas, an insurance agent. They told of his use of hyp notism In getting his ends. "He was Just like a serpent with a bird," said Mr. Hassler. "He asked me for the loan of money, and I did give him some. Finally one day he asked me for a stated sum. I told him that I did not have it, but that I would be able to give him a fraction of it, and his eager assent broke the spell." H. C. Thomas said: "His chief Idea was to gain ascendency over young women and very old women, getting them to give him money." Shoplifting Case Continued.
