Tuesday afternoon was the time for the weekly demonstration, given at the Port land School of Domestic Science. At this meeting mushrooms were prepared and served by Miss Voorhfes In the following dishes: Puree of mushrooms, scalloped mushrooms, mushroom .and cheese on toast, also mushroom and oysters. Previous to the demonstration. Dr. Harry Lane, who is recognized as high medical authority, gave an interesting talk on "Mushrooms." The talk was il lustrated with a number of specimens of fungi gathered by Dr. Lanp for this pur pose. These specimens were of great variety in color and sire, ranging from the common little white puffball to the deadly "amanlta," which fs a brilliant yel low, shaded with scarlet, and Is the only poisonous one of the Oregon mushrooms, as far as Dr. Lane Was ioen able to dis cover. , "The best way to acquire a knowledge of our edible mushrooms," said Dr. Lane, "Is to study them in the light of the primary characters employed In botanical classification and -therefore in thr nat ural relations to each othfr. The type of the three most Important groups Is the 'gasteromycetea,' or fungi whose spores are produced in the Interior of the plant, an example of which Is the well-known puffball. Those fungi whose spores are produced on the lower surface of the cap are known as hymenomyeetea, of which tttVwcommon meadow mushroom Is a good example.., There Is no distinguish ing rule by which you may tell an edible fungus from poisonous -oner Kaeh va riety and species must be learned even as we learn to recognize certain trees and flowers. A large number of fungi are edible and wholesome, and a few ere poisonous. There are certain popular tests for the identification of mushrooms whieh- are so uterry-whlmsicat and un reliable that I wish to call your attention to them. One is, that if a mushroom has a pleasant taste and odor it is safe food. The folly of this test may. be known by the fact that the ' deadly amatiita and poisonous fly agario have no unpleasant odor and are both sweet and toothsome. Another, Is that a mushroom, is good if If If WOMAN'S UNION. Quarterly Meeting Was Held Lait Mon day Afternoon at ths .Horns.

November U, ' CHURCH SOCIETIES. Meetings of Organizations Auxiliary to Religious Work During the Week. At the meeting of the Ladies' Aid So ciety of the First Congregational Church, Wednesday afternoon, Mrs. Warren E. Thomas, president of the. Women's Mus ical Club, gave an interesting paper on "Great Song Writers." The paper was illustrated by songs of Mendelssohn, 'Sch'uoeW; FHuufaiid Schumann. Mrs. Schwab and Mrs. Uushong -sang "Greeting" and "Autumn Song," by Men delssohn. The songs of Schubert. Fran's and Schumann w ere interpreted bv Mr. Wessin ger in ths singing bt "Fruhl'ngalaube die Forelle" (Schubert), "Wonduucht" and "The Two Grenadiers" (Schumann), and "Ks Hal die Rose Slch Beklagt," and "Genesung," by Frans. Mrs. Thomas prefaced her paper with quotations from Wagner: "The human voice is really th" foundation of all music: and whatever the development of the art, whatever the boldest combina tions of composer or the most brilliant execution of a virtuoso. In the end they must always n-iuni to the standard set by vocal -mnslc." ' And So it Is. For the earliest interpretation of music was lh song. The impulse to express emo tion vocally is universal. All down the apres and throughout all the world wo men havo croontd lullabys to their babes and men have given vocal expression to their emotional excitement. The folk song of the Fourteenth Cen tury province peasants was character ized by Kiicii purjly ajul charm that it attracted the nobbfi of Southeastern France, to whom belongs the honor of being tho pioneers of courtly song. From the South of France to Central France, thence to Normandy, across to England and fi Flanders, the form of art spread and from Italy It penetrated to Ger many, until the power of song thus ex trt'lsid its beneficial and humanixing in fUn ncc over all Christ-mlnm. " The period which begatr with Weber Mid Schubert may Ik- said to have closed with Mendelssohn and -Schumann Schu mann was most grateful for Meadels sohn's -Influence, and he says:" "I look to Mendelsohn as to a lofty mountain. He Is divine. Not a day passes but he titters some. sentiment worthy of Inscrip tion in rold." Mendelssohn's sones follow Schubert's, though mere restricted In form. No composer is more worthy of thoughtful ajul finished execution than Schumann. Together witn Schubert. Goethe and Heine in llttruture, he has lifted the song to a higher pinnacle of excellence than it h'-ld before. In form and harmony Franz's songs nre akin to the folk -nss and church f-ongs. The perfection with which Frans renders every v.ord is his highest Jnerit and the exquisite finish and poetic feel ing must compel our admiration. At the conclusion of the literary pro gram refreshments were served. Those of the entertainment committee were Madames J. B. Cleland, M. M. Brannan, A. I.. Cake, B. P. Cardwcll. H. W, Card well. 8.
