campmeeting in the history of our or-
11. W. Cottrell. president of the con
- ference. 'The interest in the war and
" our understanding of its relation to the
-. Bible' prophecies has much to do with
this interest. Our prediction .many
"years ago of this war was not accept
able to the public, who thought we were
alarmists.
Worse War In Predicted.
"Our further understanding " of the
' Bible prophecies, leading us to say that
a much worse war will follow a short
period of peace, will be even leas ac
ceptable to most. For it would seem
that the world could learn the terrible
ness of war from an experience of this
nature that would forever safeguard
it from the repetition of such a world
- horror. But the fact remains that war
only engenders hate in the heart of
- man and that only with the literal
presence of the Prince of Peace, Christ,
will there ever be peace on earth final
. and eternal."
v.. w .. w . . .
To disseminate their beliefs they
have 40 publishing houses scattered
over the earth, turning out literature.
They sold more than $2,000,000 worth
last year and this year the total bids
fair to pass that amount considerable,
for much of their literature concerns
the Bible and its connection with the
war.
They spend more than ?3, 000,000 year
ly In wages for their large force of
workers. One in every 12 of their
membership devotes all his time to the
spreading of the gospel in this or for
eign lands, mostly in foreign lands,
where the gospel is preached in 107
languages. Besides this most of the
lav members heln in manv wavs.
The reason so large a percentage of
the membership devotes itself to the
; Adventist work is to be found in their
I system of education. They have 1400
, schools, from primary to advanced col-
; taught by the 1600 instructors the reg
; ular state course, in addition to manual
- training. domestic science, sewing,
gardening and the Bible. Here they
; are laugiu mat ine nignest laeal they
; can have is to serve humanity in the
; capacity of a minister or physician or
; nurse. Hence upon graduation many
hundreds take up these professions
each .year.
The financial system of the -Adven-,
tista has attracted much attention. But
, It is only the system given in the be
; ginning, they assert, that man shall
" give one-tenth of his income, besides
offerings to the gospel work.

20 TRUE BILLS IN
Grand Jury for May Reports
and Is Discharged.
INSTITUTIONS ARE VISITED
Proposed Plan to Locate Home for
Incorrigible Women In Vlcinity
of County Poor Farm Declared
to Be Against Public Good.
A brief report on county institutions
was turned in by trie Aiuitnoman
County grand jury for May when that
body was disbanded yesterday. The re
port condemns a plan to locate a home
for incorrigible women in. the vicinity
of the County Poor Farm. Beyond this.
the recommendations are practically
the same aa those of the. last grand
jury.
During the month the jury examined
201 witnesses and drew 20 true bills
nd 12 not-true bills. In making their
final report the grand jurors commend
the work of Charles C. Hindman,
Deputy District Attorney, who had
charge of the jury.
The jurors were: w tills Kisiier. li.
Vorse. T. G. Tonsing. J. G. Fleishman.
Lyman T. Beden, M. V. Harrison and
H. K. Beckwitn. The report, in part.
follows:
"Baby Home We urge the installa
tion of a two-inch standpipe in center
of building, on all floors and base
ment, with hose racks carrying suffi-
ent lengths of two-inch canvas hose
on each floor and basement, all in sub
stitution of the three-fourths-inch iron
pipe and hose now In use for fire
fighting purposes.
"Kelly Butte We recommend the
reopening of quarry and working of
prisoners therein.
"Multnomah I arm Condition excel
lent, and we commend in highest terms
methods employed and results obtained
by the superintendent in charge. We
condemn the proposed location for the
Home for Incorrigible Women on the
ground of its nearness to the Mult
nomah Farm, which fact cannot but
work harm to the discipline in both
institutions. Any apparent economy In
such location will prove a false econ
omy In the end. we earnestly recom
mend a reconsideration of hia matter
by those responsible for the proposed
location.
"County Hospital The countv is
sadly in need of a complete new hos
pital, modernly equipped, and we rec
ommend its construction We indorse
the efforts of and results obtained by
present management.
"Frazier Detention Home We sug
gest no moneys be expended on build
ing except to cut doorways in lieu of
windows now leading to fire escapes;
and, further, that at the earliest date
possible a system of "segregation of
inmates be instituted and a series of
cottages be built to replace the one
large building for housing such in
mates. , We believe the gymnasium
should be immediately equipped and
maintained as such: in present condi
tion it is useless. We suggest that as
far as practicable the grounds be ex
tensively used for garden purposes.
"County Jail Xo criticism. .
"City Jail No criticism.
"We emphatically indorse the policy
and urge its extension of employment
of the competent trained nurse for su
perintendence of institutions main
tained for the sick, infirm, delinquent
and dependent.".

Hardest of All Tasks Lore for Family Shown in Home Life.
T
O WRITE anything new about
Mary Pickford. for photoplay fans
is about the , hardest task any
biographer ever attempted, because of
the fact that they already know all
about her. From the kind of soup she
prefers to the variety of tooth paste,
there is nothing the general public
doesn't know about little Mary. Many
sighing swains have been convinced of
the fact that she is married and has a
live husband in the .person . of, Owen
Moore, who often appears opposite her.
There is not a picture player who is
better known or better loved thac
Mary Pickford. She is a simple, swe
little maid, entirely unaffected, always
charming and fascinating.
She has a comfy little home in Cali

Contra lia Ncliool Head ljtpcrionced.
CKNTRALIA. Wash., June 5. fSpe
cial.) C. W". White, the new principal
of the Centralia High School. Is a
graduate of the University of Ohio,
where he received a degree of bachelor
of philosophy. He is taking a post
graduate course at the Stale University
and expects to receive his master's
degree in 1916. Professor Frank Drake,
Jr., whom Professor White succeeds,
next year will be superintendent of
schools at Port Townsend, Wash.
begun to climb the ladder of fame as
a star.
Mary loves her family devotedly; the
devotion between the mother and
daughter is particularly delightful and
absolutely unfeigned and untheatrical.
Mary Pickford is unspoiled, natural
and sweet dispositioned. She has not
always been the high-salaried star she
is today, and . sympathizes keenly with
the ambitious girl who is attempting
to make a name for herself over the
same road which she herself traveled.
She began as a "legitimate" actress
when young at a salary of $25 a week.
it was not ror long before she was
"discovered" . and was earning $500 a
week. Now she is one. of the highest
salaried actresses in motion pictures,
her- contract calling for $2000 and a
percentage of the profits.
Little Mary is genuinely, wholesome
ly proud of her position in the hearts
of the public. Only a short while ago
she received from Australia a silver
loving cup and an album containing
the autographs of 18,"651 persons, ad
mirers In a far-off land who could in
no other way express to her their love
and adoration. Although Americans
have not demonstrated their apprecia
tion of her work In this manner, it is
done every day by hundreds of thou
sands who flock to the theaters where
her pictures are shown and express
their keen admiration of her and her
work.
All this has not spoiled her. Today
she is just as genuinely delighted with
any unusual letter or gift as she was
a few years -ago, when she first be
came known as a picture player, then
with the Blograph Players. She was
then 16 years old. a little, chubby slip
of a girl. So popular has she become
within the last few years that reprints
of these old subjects have been made,
and in most cases they are eagerly
sought after.
If there is an illusion possessed by
anyone that Mary Pickford can hold
her position by virtue of her beautiful
face, it is time to dispel it. It is not
true. There are thousands of girls wh
have been trying to gain fame as long
as Mary Pickford has who are still
extras.
She holds her place by sheer force of
personality and by histrionic ability.
Every picture playgoer has felt the
magnetism of this charming little
woman for she is really a woman, a
splendid one and .knows whereby she
gets the title "the most popular pic
ture actress in the' world."
She enters into her work with the
fame spirit that she enters into her
play tirelessly, sweetly, unaffectedly.
That is why Mary Pickford is "Amer
ica's sweetheart."
Strenuous Campaign to Be Pressed
Till Congressmen 1'all tn Line .
for Cause, Slie Says Wil
son Favors, She Believes.
"If the Western women would only
realize the etruggle the Kastern women
are having for suffrage, they would, 1
know, devote a little more time and
thought to the fight the Congressional
Union has been trying to put up," said
Mrs. Gilson Gardner yesterday. Mrs.
Gardner, who lives at Washington,
D. C. Is a member of the National ex
ecutive committee of the Congressional
Union.
"I know that it is a difficult thing
for you women who have the. franchise
to make any efforts toward a constitu
tional amendment for National suffrage,
but you have no idea how much U
would help. We have interviewed every
Congressman who has been In Wash
ington in the last few years, and it
has done worlds of good. Many of
those who have told us they would
not vote for the measure have changed
their minds and have come to our side
before the session was over, simply be
cause the women have so earnestly and
so seriously worked for the cause." '
As one of. these workers. Mrs.
Gardner has done her share in the
movement- She is bound up heart and
soul in the work, . and wherever she
goes where there is a branch of tlie
Congressonal Union, she lias made an
appeal for help, as she has in the
Senate and House of Representatives to
the men.
Southern Senators Astounded.
Mrs. Gariier is an earnest little
worker, with a great big sense of
humor, and a little sympthy for the
man who says: "I would be perfectly
willing for women to vote, only I hate
to sec them.get mixod up in something
they can't understand, and don't know
anything about."
She tells how the Senators Demo
crats from the South have been ap
palled that women should request such
a thing. They never hear of such a
thing at home, they tell her, and see
no reason why women in the North
should request it.
"They are perfectly nice and sweet
and courteous to us always," she said,
"but that is all. Eastern men have
a different attitude toward women
than Western men. At the Civic
League luncheon today T noticed that
the men confer freely with the women
on civic matters. In the East this is
not so. When a woman speaks on any
question of importance outside of her
own home, the men listen most cour
teously and respectfully, but they
never, never discuss things with her
in public."
President Brlloved tn Fnvor.
In regard to the difference of opinion
on the suffrage question between the
President and the Congressional Union.
Mrs. Gardner said that she felt sure
that Mr. Wilson was in sympathy with
the cause, but that he was standing
by his party, which does not favor an
amendment.
"When the working girls from New
York told him of the things which
they had to endure as the result of
male suffrage only." she said, "he was
visibly shaken and he expressed his
keenest sympathy with their plight.
"The reason why women in the East
particularly want suffrage now," she
exclaimed, "is because there are ques
tions which affect them intimately.
The Children's Bureau, child labor,
educational subjects, dozens of ques
tions which only mildly interest men.
They think these questions of inferior
Importance.
Fight Not to Be Dropped.
"They have rivers and harbors bills
to pass, but slight the other things
which are going to affect posterity
quite as much and deserve the most
serious consideration. We are inter
ested in river and harbors, too, strange
as that may seem to the Southern
Democrat. That Is the reason the
Congressional Union is making this
fight, and is going to continue to
make it, until every Senator and every
Reperesentative changes hts mind and
gives us what we want what we
need, what we must have to have a
bigger and broader form of democracy."
Mrs. Gardner is the wife of Gilson
Gardner, a well-known Washington
newspaper correspondent, and is- her
self a magazine writer of note.
