This bulletin is cleverly aftd ably edited by Mrs. Charles H. Castner. It costs only 25 cents a year not enough to pay for postage and envelopes, let alone the printing and the paper. Let's get the right spirit and see that everyone gets a bulletin. At the state convention in Corvallis It was voted to continue the monthly club bulletin, and the state president has named the retiring president, Mrs. Castner, as editor of this work. Two copies will be sent free to each feder ated club, one to each member of the executive board, chairmen of standing and special committees, and subscrip tions are to be taken from individual club members. Each club is urged to conduct a campaign at' once and se cure as many subscriptions from members as possible, that we may en large this little messenger of club news and reach every individual club woman in the state. What club will be the first to report 100 per cent? Send names of subscribers and money to Mrs. Charles Hinqs, recording sec retary, Forest Grove, Or. Has your club sent the names of Us new president and corresponding secretary to the state president and recording secretary? If not. do so at once, that the list of your officers may appear correctly in the year book: to be printed very soon. Following is the first official mes sage of Mrs. Ida B. Callahan, newly elected president: To Members of the Federated Clubs of Oregon: As your newly elected president I wish at this time to extend to you my greet ings and best wishes and to assure you of my desire to serve you in every way possible. At the recent meeting of the slate convention held in Corvallis we went on record as favoring the programme out lined by the general federation, which emphasizes Americanism, turitt and com munity service. With these great subjects before us, there is a wonderful opportunity to bene fit not only our respective communities, but to aid in the upbuilding of our state and of our nation. Here is an opportuni ty for the club women of Oregon to do real constructive work which should fol low a great war. In doing this work we shall reach a higher development of our selves, a development which can be at tained not by idleness, but by service. Let us take Service for our watchword and do all in our power to build a bigger and bet ter commonwealth. Women of the Federated Clubs of Ore gon, here Is hope ; here is opportunity ; here is true nobility. With your co-operation, I shall strive to make the administration successful. Very truly yours.

The business meeting and programme occupied the afternoon. A report of the city fed eration given by Mrs. E. L. Sanborn, the club's representative, was a fea ture of the business meeting. The programme of the day con sisted of a talk by Sirs. W. U Marshall 'HAT infinite care, what trouble, what risks even, a woman will take to possess a beautiful skin ! Not the smallest defect that goes unnoticed in the daily scrutiny she gives herself before her mirror; not tne slightest imperfection she will not make tireless efforts to correct Yet thousands of girls and women fail to achieve the lovely skin they lone for because they never really study their skin and learn its individual needs. In trying to improve their com plexions, they experiment first with one thing, then another each time hoping for a miracle to happen! Then, disappointed, they relax their efforts until some newer remedy pre sents itself. Only one miracle can happen to your skin and that happens every day. Each day your skin renew' itstlf the old skin dies, and new skin takes its place. By taking advantage of this constant change in the skin cells by giving the new skin, as it forms, the simple, regular, hygienic care suited to its individual needs you can make it whatever you wish to have it Learn to study your own skin. Look at it every day in a full light before your hand mirror. Is it fresh, oft, brilliant with lovely color? Under the strongest light does it show clear, flawless? Or, when you come to examine it closely, do you find conspicuous nose pores? Do embarrassing little blem ishes mar its delicate smoothness? If so, you may be sure that vou are not giving your skin the kind of care it needs. The famous treatment for conspicuous nose pores Often a skin that is otherwise almost flawless will be spoiled, made unattrac tive, by conspicuous nose pores. The pores of the face are not as fine as on other parts of the body. On the nose especially there are more fat glands than elsewhere and there is more activity of the pores. These pores, if not properly stimu lated and kept free from dirt, dog up and become enlarged. You can overcome this trouble by using every night this special treat . ment. Wring a soft cloth from very hot water, lather it with Woodbury's Facial Soap, then hold it to your face. When the heat has expanded the pores, rub in very gently a fresh lather of Woodbury's. Repeat this hot water and lather application several rimrs, stopping at once if your nose feels sensitive. Then finish by rubbing the nose for thirty seconds with a piece of ice. Always dry your skin carefully. Before long you will find that this treatment reduces the enlarged pores until they become inconspicuous. The treatment must, however, be used persistently and regularly for you must not expect to change in a few days, or even a week, a condition resulting from months of exposure and neglect. The cause of skin blemishes A frequent cause of worry and embarrassment to women are the un sightly little blemishes that sometimes mar the smoothness of an otherwise lovely skin. Authorities on the skin now agree that these are commonly caused by bacteria and parasites which are carried into the pores from outside, through dust and fine particles in the air. By the right kind of treatment you can entirely free your skin from these disfiguring blemishes and as the new skin forms each day, you can make it as clear and smooth as you would like to have it Just before retiring, wash in your usual way with warm water and Woodbury's Facial Soap, finishing with a dash of cold water. Then dip your fingers in warm water and rub them on the cake of Woodbury's until they arc covered with a heavy cream like lather. Cover each blemish with a thick coat of this, and leave it on for ten minutes. Then rinse very carefully, first with dear hot water, then with cold. Use this treatment every night, and the blemishes will gradually disappear. The regular use of Woodbury s irs cleansing your skin will discourage the tendency for new blemishes to form. Learn the treatment for your type of skin You will find treatments that e actly meet the need of each individual type cf skin in the little booklet that is wrapped around every cake of Woodbury's Facial Soap. Each one of these treatments has been worked out according to fundamental rules of skin hygiene. As you read them, you will wonder at their simplicity and common sense. But don't forget that the success of the treatments depends on the regularity and persistence with which you use them. You cannot change the habits of your skin in a day or even a week. You will find Woodbury's Facial Soap on sale at any drug store or toilet goods counter in the United States or Canada. Get a cake today and begin using it tonight. A 2; cent cake lasts a month or six weeks. Let us send you a trial size cake For 6 cents we will send you a trial size cake (enough for a week of any Woodbury facial treatment), to gether with the booklet of treatments. Or for 15 cents we will send you the treatment booklet and samples of Woodbury's Facial Soap, Facial Powder, Facial Cream and Cold Cream. Address The Andrew Jergena Co., 9950 Spring Grove Avenue.
