term her an old woman. She spoke
enthusiastically of Portland, when I

also many friends she made during her
last- visit there. 17 years ago. and
spoke particularly of the Montgom
ery, Oregon Poet Is Honored.
And right now her home has been
used for the honoring of an Oregon
poet and America's greatest poet
Edwin Markham. of whom I must
speak again, for he has just had a
birthday. Edwin Markham is so per
petually young that he can afford
birthdays, even though he has now
rounded out 64 years since first he saw
the light of day in Oregon City.
He has been giving lectures all the
Winter in the Ingersoll home, so on
this Sunday evening simultaneously
with the honoring of Shakespeare his
friends and admirers planned a sur
prise for him. The gathering' was
made up of eminent authors, poets,
publishers, and a few laymen In the
way of Judges and clergymen. -
After his usual address the meeting
was captured from Mr. Markham by
Edward J. Wheeler, president of the
poetry society, and turned into a tes
timonial meeting. many speakers
choosing to present bouquets while the
honored head is here to bob in appre
ciation. Some had written sonnets of
rare beauty; some had appreciated
their bard in prose poetry; some told
what his lectures and the Inspiration
of his presence had meant to them.
Judge Waddams broke into poetry
his first attempt and produced a most
charming ode to the gray poet. Edgar
Lee Masters, of "Spoon River Anthol
ogy" fame. Editor Griffith of National
Sunday Magazines. Anne Rittenhouse,
who has compiled a choice volume of
verse, Ridgley Torrence, Anna Hemp
stead Branch, E. H. Blashfield, presi
dent of the National Academy of Arts,
and many others of international fame
paid their gracious and soul-stirring
tributes. It remained for the present
writer to draw the honor of talking
on the poet's birthplace, no one else
present having visited it.
Beaatlea of Oregon Pictured.
It was a pleasure to remind that
group of distinguished geniuses that
the greatest of them all had chosen
far-away Oregon as the place where a
poet had best be born; and to give
them a picture of the beauty of this
birth-environment the towering trees,
the mighty bluffs, the lovely river, the
falls, and the soft, tender air that loves
and caresses, while all about is so
purply-green and shadow-mantled as
to suggest gnomes and fairies, pixies
and elves. It was also pleasant to
tell them that Edwin Markham's
mother had written verse for the old
Oregontan while the boy Edwin -was
dabbling his bore feet in the cooling
waters of the "Willamette; perhaps even
In those far-off days getting the Joy
ousness of bare feet in lush grass which
was metamorphosed but recently in his
poem "Shoes of Happiness" these
shoes being no shoes at all. It wasn't
so nice, though, when nearly every
speaker that followed took up the
statement that Edwin Markham had
been horr amidst "towering bluffs"
and played wittily upon it as account
ing for the dear poet's later successes.
Had I only thought to say crags!
Perhaps even Oregonians may not all
know that Edwin Markham's mother
and father were with the first of the
intrepid souls to dare the Rocky
Mountains and the unknown wilds to
found a home in the "Oregon coun
try" and carry religious light to the
Indians in answer to their call, uttered
at St. Louis, and responded to by th
"Whitmans, whom history has recorded
as the saviors of the Oregon country
with others like the Markhams whose
names are not so well known in that
connection.
Also, interesting in the light of the
fight on large families, Edwin was
the eleventh child of the Markhams
and is the most distinguished member
of that family. He was takera away
from Oregon City at the age of 5 and
grew up in California, but he says of
his early home: My eye has a keen
memory for the white rush of the fails,
and my ear has a clear memory of
tneir tnunder. '
Gentle Sweetness Praised.

poets, the greatest poet of social pas

when you know them you instinctively
say "the Markhams" are getting out a
book, or writing a poem, or doing
this or that, and a son, Virgil, a boy of

Yes. we breed poets in Oregon; when
we also nurture them the Oregon coun

tory than any other part of America,
for it is the most beautiful part, and!
it has a marvelous history.
Mrs. "Walston Brown has Interested
herself in the difficulties of John
Kingsbury, Commissioner of Charities,
wh has been attacked for very evi
dently trumped-up irregularities in the
the conduct of his office. John Kings-
ury has, in fact, done a wonderful
work in New York among the poor, this
work extending over the past six or
seven years. His keen interest is in
the man down and out, the bread-
ine chap and the desolate little child.
He has had a careful eye on the con
duct of children's institutions and has
brought matters to light that are not
pleasing to the powers that be, politically.
And he has brought system out of
a junk heap of. carelessness in the
handling of unemployed men; he is un
dertaking to separate these men. care
for the sick ones, find work for the
strong, and properly look after the de
fectives. His whole soul is in the
work, and he brings to it not only a
keen sympathy for the underdogs of
life but a clear-working brain and a
scientific analysis.
Mr. KlnKibnrj Yakima Boy.
John Kingsbury grew to manhood
ust across the Columbia, in the Yak-
ma country, where nis latner . was
known as a very gifted engineer, but
where he was left an orphan as a little'
child, to grow up with such love and
care as strangers could give him. He
is one of the stalwarts to come out of
the Northwest and make his deep im
press on the East.
Mrs. walston Brown has also taken
up the defense and support of Thomas
Mott Osborne, the former warden of
Sing Sing, who, through political inter
ference, has been made to suffer unjust
and outrageous persecution. When you
feel the hearty, strong hand clasp or
this great man and look Into his tired
and tried eyes, you know he Is every
nch a man, utterly incapable of the
despicable conduct accredited to him
by political graft hunters. His work
for prison reform will make its mark
on the conduct of American prisons.
for the atrocities which he has brought
to light will never again be tolerated;
he has started a ferment and people
are aroused. Mr. Osborne is a man
past 60, very tall and splendid appear
ing physically, and intensely in earnest.
His humane treatment made men of
many wretched derelicts. But politics
are terribly In evidence in prison af
fairs in New York, and when his hu
mane methods included better sites for
prisons, away from damp and unhealthy
ground, the politicians who baa land
to sell for prison sites began to howl
ike a pack of wolves and demand his
resignation. Mr. Osborne is a man of
wealth; his position as warden was
merely an opportunity to use power for
the good of men.
Colonel Roosevelt Looks Better
I heard Colonel Roosevelt speak be
fore the Methodist Union the other
night; he looks in better condition, than
when he visited the Coast last year, but
his throat still bothers him, and his
voice is still uncertain. There is noth
ing uncertain about his clamor for war,
however; the poor Colonel seems to me
to have reached the end of his limit; he
is madly obsessed by his one subject,
the spilling of blood, and is now
dragging In his "four sons" as ready
accomplices; there is no danger to the
country from Roosevelt he has killed
himself. He is a man of whom we
must speak in the past tense. His day
is done.
Politics are raging all the mad dogs
seem let loose; out of the clamor and
clangor one hears little but slander and
vile epithets; every man mentioned in
the most far-off way as a candidate for
President brings down on his head 1
flood of underground stories of im
moralities, either in his private life or
his business. And you will hear the
same story from a dozen different
sources, showing plainly that the thing
is being done systematically.
They are overdoing' slop nothing
now makes any Impression on the ca
loused mind. You could say to the
average New Yorker: "So-and-so (can
didate for President!, deserted his wife,
was sued for divorce, ran off with an
actress, killed his private secretary,
and ate up his children," and the New
Yorker would answer in a bored voice,
"Well, what of it?"
They the politicians will have to
take another tack in ihe metropolis,
even if they are able to make the mud
stick elsewhere.
have done nothing at all, and enjoyed
it immensely. They will not let me
help at the munition works unless I
take my pedigree in one hand and.it
does not seem worth while applying to
the herald's office for that for just
two days. One of my acquaintances
here is now In London driving a motor
van for Harrod's. When I was here
before she was just the usual pleaa-ure-lovlng
society girl. Then the war
came and changed everything. It la
a never-ending wonder to see all these
girls doing real hard work, going out
in all weathers, up early In the morn
ing and busy all day.
Before the war they were simply
busy amusing themselves with golf.
hockey, tea parties, dinners, theater
parties and dances.
If the truth were told I believe they
enjoy doing their share of war work
just as much as ever they did the
other thing.
This generationr-of English girls will
be most awfully sensible and helpful.

NURSE LOOKS FORWARD
TO REAL WAR WORK
Edith E. Lanyon Tells of Amusing and Pathetic Occurrences in Big Mili
tary Hospitals in England, Where She Is Training.
BY EDITH H. LANYON. OF PORTLAND.
SOMEWHERE IN ENGLAND. March
27. (Special.) At last I have re
luctantly said good-bye to my pa
tients at the infirmary and left the town.
The parting made me feel .quite sad
and my patients ssemed sorry, too. I
have been very busy this last wf' .
and was thoroughly tired out.- Before
going to the naval hospital I shall take
a good long rest. It is embarrassing
to fall asleep every time one aits down.
The tiredness would descend upon me
like a wave the minute I left the hos
pital. Whilst on duty there is so much
doing" that one never notices the tired
feeling at all in the absorbing interest i
of the work. I dare say I shall get
mixed up in some other kind of war
work whilst taking that rest.
The navy man wrote "a greeting
from the man behind the gun" In my
autograph book. He is a g'.p-layer on
a battleship. No civilian autographs
are invited into that cherished book.
I have got my second certificate all
safe and sound, so am qualified now
for any V. A. D. hospital.
L We bought some outdoor games for
the soldiers at tne military nospitai
with part of the proceeds of the game
we invented in the Winter. We spent
$25 on them. Two pairs of boxing
gloves were amongst the things we
presented, and we hear from the com
mandant that there are many bleeding
noses in consequence and that the men
are enjoying themselves hugely.
My railway man patient eagerly
looked up the times of all my trains
for my journey- They simply Jove to
do anything for you.
One dear little girl in the children's
ward had an operation for appendicitis
the other day. Her father is a soldier,
and to give her courage she had pinned
his cap badge to her pillow.
The wall that goes up from tne chil
dren's ward on visiting day when
mother and dad say good-bye is most
affecting, also extremely disturbing.
All the nurses have to rush in to com
fort those infants. Luckily they soon
forget their sorrow and it up and take
an interest in the orang , sweets and
toys their parents left f them.
The sign of aristocracy . mat ward
is for dad to be a soldier, 't is most
lovely of all when dad is on - ave and
comes up all in khaki to see his little
K-irl or boy. They do feel so superior
to those children wnose aaas are oniy
"starred men. colliers or munition
workers. A soldier father is the real
thing to have. I have known a child
to insist his ratner is a soiaier wnea
he is really a civilian. One little boy
told me all sorts of stories about the
battles his father had been In and what
m lot of Germans he had killed all
pure fiction. His father was a collier.
I think he made It all up In self
defense. Small Boy Salutes.
When I was down in the out pa
tients' department, a few days ago, 1
very smart Sergeant-Major came in. A
tiny, wee boy about 3 years old
drODDed down off his bench, solemnly
Etood at attention and then gravely
saluted him. The big Sergeant-Major
quite ae solemnly returned the salute,
as carefully as if the little boy were a
General. The small boy looked very
bucked up. his mother looked very
proud of her son and the Sergeant
Major and I smiled sympathetically at
one another.
I was sorry that the soldier had only
come in with a message, so I hadno
excuse for putting an extra specially
beautiful bandage on him somewhere
to signify my approval.
Red Cross bandages are famous for
their symmetrical intricacy. I have to
wear a red cross on the bib of my
apron at the Naval Hospital and I hear
that the men call it "the Hot Cross
Bun sign"! Even the women at the
working parties for hospital supplies
wear uniform. Usually blue overalls
with a red cross on an oval of white
linen attached to apron bib.. The over
all is a hig covering apron with
sleevee. They also wear the regula
tion Army nurses' cap with the cur
tain. I shall also wear that kind of a cap
at the Naval Hospital. One is sup
posed to wear them so that all the
hair is covered and the ears left out.
As that makes people feel 'rather like
bunny rabbits most women calmly
fluff their hair up becomingly and let
it show. But that is not regulation.
My Sergeant friend in the trenches
la hopefully looking forward to -having
a few conscientious objectors out there
to train up in the way that they
should go. He seemed exceedingly
cheerful In his last letter, he said,
"about the sunshine."
My small niece out West sent me an
urgent message Just lately to tell my
soldier-friends to tell Kitchener not to
-' tne Germans drop a bomb on
Auntie! That message has duly gone
to Kitchener by way of an officer
friend and his General.

As usual, all the women are busy.
war working. Two of the daughters of
the family are Red Cross .nurses and
the other one is getting breakfast for
the workers at a munition factory.
They have three shifts of eight helpers
each and they prepare all the meals
for these workers. Voluntary aid, of
course.
I hope to go up and see the Red
Cross Hospital in a day or two. One
or their soldier patients is an Ameri
can from Arizona. He seems to be
very popular with the nurses. One of
them said to him, "You were good to
come and help us to fight." He said.
'Sure, we re cousins, aren't we?" The
rigid discipline does not make much of
a hit with him any more than it does
with me!
One of the maids at the house left a
lew weeks ago and went to the muni
tion works. She is getting two or
tnree times as much pay as she did. at
housework.
Our youngest Red Cross nurse, who
is Just 19, ia on an all-night shirt at
the munition works tomorrow night in
addition to her hospital work, so you
see we are all very enthusiastic.
1 am very proud of one of mv friend
who is a doctor. It seems that he
wished to Join the army as soon aa
ever war broke out.
They refused him because thev iaM
he had a tendency to varicose veins and
would not be able to stand the long
marcnes. lo snow his endurance he
immediately started and walked from
his home town to London a distance
or quite l2o miles. There he went
straight to another recruiting office.
Again they refused him for the same
reason. Without hesitation he went
into the hospital and had all those
offending veins cut out. As soon as
he was well the army graciously ac
cepted him and he is now in charge of
a military hospital in Cairo.
Last time I saw him we were both
in Seattle. He was then surgeon on
a ttlue t unnel liner.
My hostess and I are going up to
London together on Saturday. She ia
going to learn motor driving and run
ning repairs and then hopes to be able
to substitute for somebody's chauffeur,
probably a doctor's. I am merely pass

Mexican conditions are given a full
discussion in a letter recently received
by C. V. Cooper, of this city, from E. C.
Byam, now of Chicago, but who has
been interested in properties in Mex
ico for some time.
The context of Mr. Byara's letter of
Mexican conditions shows a decided
displeasure with, the Administration's
Mexican policy.
In the letter Mr. Byam declared that
there was no possibility of the Mexican
government being in a settled condi
tion under the Carranra rule. It is
stated "by Mr. Byam that trouble will
sooner or later come between Obregon
and Carranza that will mean either
death or banishment for the latter.
An excerpt from Mr. Byam'i letter
says that "the revolutionary writers
of Mexico repeat the L W. W. propa
ganda as being their Ideal, and they
are agreed that they have attained
that ideal in the present conditions
now obtaining in Mexico.
It is also said by Mr. Byam that Wil
son's attack on Huerta was "solely for
the purpose or aiding the revolution,
Mr. Byam states that the allegation
that there are no public lands in Mex
ico is false. "There are millions of
acres of public lands available for set
tlement, to sav nothing of other mil
lions of acres that could be bought
very cheaply if the settlers really
wanted it. is tils explanation.
It is said In Mr. Byam's letter that
