rest cabin is to be constructed on

cottage will be rented for week-end
vacations of working girls at Copalis,

The decision to extend the scope
of the service to this extent was
reached at a meeting of the Com
munity Service board of control.
Think-of-Me hill is the objective of
many of the h 1 k 1 n'g expeditions
carried on by girls' clubs under super
vision of the Community. Service. A
few such hikes were taken last sum
mer and autumn and the need of a
rest cabin was felt greatly at that
time. The cabin will be a modest one
and will be used only by groups
chaperoned by the service.
The beach cottage has been a dream
of the girls who are employed during
the week and who have heretofore
been u-nable to take more than a
single day's outing. It-is now planned
to rent a cottage, organize vacation
pi'.rties regularly and if possible keep
the house open to parties of girls at

there is a problem with real work to
do. The Americanization board of
the Portland Woman's Research club

have learned much about conditions:
they also have learned that though
people are willing to help, they have
no knowledge of what to do. . The
object of this course is to provide
this knowledge and. among other
things, to teach the ideals, the char
acteristics and accomplishments of
the various peoples so that there will
be a better understanding and appre
ciation. The Americanization programme
includes the course of lectures, prac
tical instruction in leaching English
to adults, putting on pageants, handi
work, exhibits.' etc.
Professor Boas is director of
Americanization for Springfield, Mass.
and is on leave for a year at Reed
college. The college Is deeply In
terested and glad to give the people
of Portland the benefit of training
under him. The school board will
provide Miss Rundall. Atnericaniza
tion and demonstrating teacher. Or
ganizations, churches, clubs and so
cieties are asked to get behind this
effort and make it worth while to
Portland.

A thirtecn-inch pun would not make much of an impression un
less it was fired occasionally. The load it carries is not so awe
inspiring as the EXPRESSION of it.
Knowledge is very desirable, but without action avails little.
Knowledge pertains to the intellect action to the will, and lack
of will power to DELIVER KNOWLEDGE makes the most
learned minds merely intellectual junk piles.
There are thousands of men with College Degrees earning less
than $100 a month. You may find M. D.s working in drug stores,
L.L. D.s poring over ledgers. Ph. D.s digging coal, D. D. S.s doing
manual labor not because they lack knowledge, but because
they lack ability to AFPLY their knowledge and turn gray mat
ter into greenbacks.
Stop "at a country blacksmith shop, or the village barber's, and
you find orators and statesmen discussing with surprising intel
ligence current events on war, religion, politics and yet they do
little else but form a soapbox cabinet of might-have-beens. They
LACK APPLICATION' they are human curiosity shops.
1 have had Dentists ask me for suggestions on difficult or unusual
dental operations who could almost repeat word for word the les
sons they learned in Dental Colleges yet they could not AP
PLY their knowledge.
I have had other really unusually competent dentists tell me they
could not get ahead, and they could not understand why when
the whole trouble was they lacked tlte will power to apply
BUSINESS PRINCIPLES to their professional abilities.
MY 15-YEAR GUARANTEE
My quality has stood the test. Thousands have found it perma
nent, How else could I personally guarantee it for 15 years?
Quality dentistry does not always mean extremely high fees. My
low fees are within reach of all merely a fair profit on your work.
