Tho campaign for bet ter health conditions must begin with I the layman, but the nurse is the axle of the work. She is our greatest asset. She has to bear the brunt of criticism and do the mechanical work. There Is a great deal of such work, for this means giving time and thought to such lines as dairying, epidemiology. Indus trial hygiene, housing conditions and child and school hygiene. Again we say that the burden should ultimately rest upon the public authorities. Let us agi tate and educate! "The Oregon .

The rules may be those of love or the rod may be the scepter, but we must be armed with, one of these. Bo with the nations. "We believe that a great step In the right direction would be to have an International court composed of mem bers from all the countries of the world, sit in" judgment on the affairs that cause dissatisfaction among the nations. Let this court decide all ques tions coming before it and have the army and navy composed of men from all countries and be under the order of this court and only used in case any nation refused to abide by the ruling; not allow any nation to build warships or drill any standing armies. If this had been the case in the war of which we are now seeing the horrors, the court could have settled the matter and if Germany or Austria had not been satisfied it would have been impossible for them to have thrown the whole of Europe into such a bloody war, the most terrible war In the history jot the world." . , The Tuesday Afternoon Club will meet this week with Mrs. L.

BY EDITH KNIGHT HOLMES. TEN years of growth, success and ever-increasing efficiency have passed for the People's Institute. The members will celebrate their anni versary next Friday afternoon by holding an elaborate benefit tea at the home of the president of the instltu-1 tion, Mrs. Helen Ladd Corbett. The exact date of the founding of the People's Institute was November 11, 904. It was on that occasion that a number of women of the First Presby terian Church met with a view of form- ng an organization for undenomina tional work to overcome the slum con ditions that then existed In the North End. The practical things that were waiting to be done appealed to the founders and to all who came in touch with the activities commenced, and the organization rapidly grew in popularity and strength. Cburch Lot Donated. , The great need for some work here was brought to the attention of the members of the church, and especially to the attention of Mrs. W. S. Ladd, who was greatly interested, and later through the Interest aroused at this time the Ladd Estate donated to the church the lot on the corner of Fourth and Burnside streets for the purpose ot erecting thereon a building . which should provide a home for tho Men's Resort, a mission of the cburch con ducted' for men, and a home f or . the nonsectarian work for women and chil dren which was to be carried on. The club organized at that time was known as the Institute Club and the work was designated as the "settle ment work of the People's Institute.' It Is not a denominational organization and has not been supported by the church. Not too highly can the praises of the head worker be spoken. Miss Valen tine Prichard, who has been the super intendent of this work since Its organi zation, was for some years previous supervisor of public kindergartens in this city, and through that work learned to know the wretched con ditions and the great need of work for women and children In the North End district. Work Among Tenement. At that time, in place of the fine wholesale buildings which now domi nate that district, it was largely com posed of shacks, tenement-bouses . and houses of ill repute, with families and children living In 'their midst. Mrs. Bertha Davis has charge of the Albina branch and to her guidance much praise belongs. The principal aim of the People s In stitute Is to prevent unhappiness, evil conditions, sorrows, sins, to start the boys and girls out right, to give them the right outlook, to make them good citizens. The institute deems it wiser from a moral and an economic stand point to prevent crimes and sorrows than to wait until evil holds sway and then go in for reform and re'ief. The work, however, is many-sided. It touches little children, young men and women, and older persons, and reaches into the home where the friendly vis itor and the visiting housekeeper go carrying messages of cheer, comfort and help. Among the departments of work con. ducted are free dispensaries, the Big Sisterhood, classes for little housekeep ers, clubs for mothers, for boys and for girls, kitchen garden classes, cook ing schools and many other branches that fill a long-felt want. $ "Work Embraces Large Kit-Id. The People's Institute started the playground work, in Portland la 1S06, rrr 1 J7J1WJT "' -'---"" ngir J, t It has conducted settlement work In the North End for 10 years, in Albina for three years and In South Portland for two years. An employment bureau for women has been maintained for five years and a free kindergarten for 10 years. It has assisted in obtaining the department of public safety for women, has carried on extensive relief work; It has been active on committee work in aiding many of the leading reforms of the past 10 years and it has co-operated with the Consumers' League in work for a new housing code. Now it Is co-operating with the Reed College students, who are doing social service work and studying meth ods as they go. It trains the hands of the young to efficient doing, pre sents clean ideals and provides edu cational. Industrial, social, religious and friendly aid. These are only some of the accomplishments of the People's Institute. Miss Prichard is head worker, but Mrs. Bertha Davis, of the Albina branch. Miss Mary Heilman and nu merous others are ably assisting. Free Dispensary Kept. The free dispensary is maintained in co-operation with the medical depart ment of the University of Orsgon, under a corps of 14 physicians, with the assistance of the medical students, who receive their clinical instructions there. The average attendance is 20 patients a day. Treatment is given to young and old. The dispensary is under the direc tion of the Joint dispensary committee, which Includes Dr. K. A. J. Mackenzie, Dr. Ernest Tucker, Dr. George B. Story, of the University of Oregon; Mrs. A. F. Biles, of the Visiting' Nurse Associa tion: Mrs. Helen Ladd Corbett, Mrs. W, B. Ayer, Miss Valentine Prichard, J. E. Wheeler, H. C. Ewing, Dr. Gertrude French, of the People's Institute, and the following-named medical staff: Dr. George Whiteside, Dr. George Koehler, Dr. William Shea, Dr. Robert H. Ellis, Dr. E. J. Labbe, Dr. Frederick A. Klehle, Dr. Mary MacLachlan. Dr. C. L. Booth, Dr. Gertrude C. French, Dr. Otia Akin, Dr. C. J. McCusker. Dr. Charles Rybke. Dr. H. G. Parker. Dr. W. S. Knox. Dr. Joseph Bilderbach, Dr. Ray Matson, Dr. C. J. Manges, Dr. J. L. Manion. Mrs. Etta McOmber is matron in charge. In the activities represented In the clubs and other work, there were 700 children and more than 100 adults en rolled in the institute last year. The organization co-operates with other agencies and tries in every way to make its work efficient. & arming; Class la Feature An interesting feature is the class In home nursing and caring for babies. This instruction Is given to little girls. So, too, is the little housekeeper work; and the kitchen garden class work. The future housewives of the city are taught to build a fire in the stove, to set the table, scrub the woodwork, wash, iron, make the beds, sweep, dust and do all the necessary things that go to make up good housekeeping. And they learn it all in such a happy way, with parties and play scattered through the lessons. The broad feeling of friendliness and democracy of the People's Institute Is one of its distinctive features. It Is one big family with every member try ing to help the othei. The mothers' clubs make baby clothes for the little siTangers, who come to town In homes where no outfit can be procured for want of funds. The big children learn t help their mothers and to take care of the little ones. The tiniest proteges t- ixr,- ' 1 " 'I !(-!! v r I saw"-! i V are taught to make themselves usful.. The Illihee Guild of Hand Weavers In structs the members in an art whereby they can earn money and make the homes attractive. The institute assists in finding a market for the work pro duced 1 he activities of the Albina branch alone Include: One kindergarten, two cooking classes, Camplire Girls, one sewing school, one dressmaking class. two housekeeping classes, one gymna sium for girls, two gymnasiums for boys, three boys' clubs, two girls' clubs, one class In home nursing, union Sun day school. Mothers' Club, and a branch of the Public Library. At Christmas time the People s In stitute always has a Christmas tree and wonderful surprises for the chil dren. The society girls enter into the spirit of the festivities, whether they are Summer picnics or outings or gath erings in the headquarters on a Win try day. Everyone who begins work in the Institute gets the enthusiasm ot the cause and works with a will. Plea for Funds Blade. To keep all these activities going funds must be raised, and It Is for this purpose and to celebrate their tenth birthday that the women have planned the big tea party. The executive board will receive with Mrs. Corbett at her home December 27 from 3 to 6 o'clock. With every invitation was sent a tiny red envelope In which one may place a free-will offering as an anniversary gift to help along the good cause. Every dollar donated will mean com fort for tired mothers and hungry children. It will mean friendliness and brotherly love for those who need it most. It will mean happy children given an opportunity to learn to think and act right and to become self-helpful and good citizens. It will mean "helping humanity with directness, with an lmmediateness. which no other help given to human creatures at any other stage of life can possibly give." The executive board Includes: Mrs. Helen Ladd Corbett. president: Mrs. T. B. Wilcox, first vice-president; Mrs. W. B. Ayer, second vice-president; Mrs. Henry C. Caboll. secretary; Mrs. Fred erick A. Foster, treasurer; Mrs. Thomas Scott Brooke, chairman finance com mittee; Mrs. L. Allen Lewis. Miss Val entine Prichard. Mrs. A. E. Hockey, Mrs. George Whiteside, Mrs. Robert Strong, Mrs. Warren E.
