An Kawtir Party.
One of the prettiest affairs of
Easter day, was their accustomed
gathering of the Junior C. E. of the
Congregational church at the home
of their Invalid friend, Miss Ella
Bunnell, now livin;; at 171 Elizabeth
street. After singing their songs
and depositing their Easter flowers
and pretty eggs, they departed, leav
ing words of cheer and pleasant
memories, all of which are much ap
preciated. Those present were: Su
perintendent. Mrs. W. A. Sohwlm
ley; Helen Walker. Viletta Willison,
Ruth Patty, Lottie Morthland. Nellie
Perry, E-ther Patty, Dorothy Abbott,

Mothers Meeting of W. C. T. V.
More than forty ladies met at the
home of Mrs. A. C. Keller, Tuesday
afternoon. She was ably assisted by
Mrs. Maud Marska in entertaining.
A program, nearly two hours in
length, pertaining to children, filled
the time. Among the first numbers
was a paper prepared and read by
Mrs. Cora Slingerland. The neces
sity of children obeying their parents
was handled In an excellent manner.
it was well emphasized that if a
child was properly trained in the
home he was not likely to bring dis
grace on his parents after he reached
maturity.
Mrs. Jessica Porter followed with
a reading that was well received.
Young Master Marska won honors in
a cunning little speech about "Old
Glory."
The closing papor was read by an
enthusiastic young matron, Mrs.
Fred Walters. She brought forth
the facts that 1,000,000 children in
the United States under 16 are not
going to school but working in fac
tories; 1,000,000 more under 16 are
instead of being husy witX book.
Hence, one in six are growing up
illiterate. It may be mentioned that
one-tenth of them are in the great
city of New York, the harbor for
immigrants. She, the proud mother
of three, emphasised the fact that
childless homes means the doom of
American liberty and all it stands
for, as foreign children will take
their place. The women present
represented at least 100 children,
theirs by God-given right, and the
enthusiasm shown over these mental
problems would indicate it would
not be their fault if that proportion
of Ashland's population were not
properly mothered.
Later, topics will be Introduced
that will touch directly on the
temptations that are used to induce
children to go wrong. One will
probably be, "When should mothers
cease to chaperone their daughters?"
Another, "Where is your wandering
boy and girl at night?"
The snuff-dipping habit, which is
causing consternation among the
Portland police, as the youngsters
get started in the way they surely
should not go, will perhaps be
touched upon in the near future, as
well as San Francisco's latest fad,
soaking a belladonna porous plaster
to brew a drink that is just as likely
to kill as to exhilarate.
Due notice will be given of the
next meeting.
