teachers ara employed at the Highland
achool besides the principal and . an

The school altogether la one of tha

a commodloua baaement for these pur

Jsnd modern public school building. Tha
ventilation snd besting Is according to
' the mont Improved plans, known to
architect snd vary little Is to be de
sired In all these equipments. , , '
Jtfew years-ago when the building
wss erected the ground sloped sway
from tha building, making admirable
playgrounds, well drained, but In exca
vating for tbe basement the dirt thst
wss taken from tha site wss spresd on
the ground around the building . unul
'the sloping effect was destroyed., i
..At the beginning of this yesr's work
tha wster on rainy dsys ran toward the
building tnstesd of swsy from It and
the board wss notified that water waa
running Into the basement. Workmen
were sent Snd tbe dirt wss piled up
. around the basement so that .the water
would be turned swsy, but this dirt was
taken from the space, between two of
the big wlnga, making a big hole which
In wet weather Made a veritable duck
pond, not more than 10 feet from tbe
wall.
Mr. Stanley statea that, be has ssked
both the board land the city superin
tendent to remedy the matter but both
have neglected it and depended Upon the
other to attend to It. Mr. Stanley thinks
that tha Highland grounds should be
the prettiest in the city Instead of the
moat neglected aa there Is plenty of
room for beautiful grounds around tbe
building.

Rev. Hiram Vrooman of the Sweden

from it.
"Our spiritual Chriatmas trss will bs
seen to be loaded with Ideas. And et
they will be disappointing to soma of
you, because they sre not the kind of

described ss our Lord snd Savior Jesus

"And If It should happen thst all In

"Among ths spiritual gifts on ths tree

Bar. lewis a. WUsoa Is Opposed, Xe
Says, to Their Sxpalaioa.
In a lecture before ths Portland Uni
tarian assoclstion last night Rev. Lewis
G. Wilson, a well-known sxponsnt-. of
tho Unitarian faith, referred to the
present anti-Japanese agitation and ex
pressed himself as opposed to ths ex
elusion of ths little brown man.
"I do not pretend to speak with au
thority about the future," said Rev. Wil
son, "but certainly It seems at present
ss. If ths northwest would bs in a bad
way If It were not for the sturdy little
men, who can and are willing to work,
now that it Is so difficult to get labor
for tha rougher classes of employment"
Rev. Wilson expressed ths opinion
thst the Influx of Japanese is not nesrly
so much to be feared as -tha ImmlgrsW
tlon of whits foreign laborers. Said ho:
"I do not- think that western people
resliss how much greater.' up to now.
at least hss been the problem of Immi
gration among ths cities of ths Atlantic
seaboard. If appesrsnces count for any
thing, ths Chlness snd Japanese ons
sees on every hand nest, industrious
snd orderly form a fsr more desirable
clsss of residents than do tho Klavs,
low Itallana, Bulgarians, Greeks and
others who coma from csntrsl snd
southern Kurops."
Rev. Wilson's subject was "Ths Fu
ture of Liberal Christianity." and was
for ths moat part an exposition of ths
differences between Unitarlantsm and
orthodoxy.

and, while angels rejoice, man la grate

the world goea off on) a holiday.
"It Is of little concern whether the
day we celebrate aa Christinas is really
ths anniversary of -Ow-Havkmr's-blrth.
or whether we should begin to data
letters six yesrs earlier, or whether tbe
Saviour was born on the first dsy of

mads a strong appeal for ths svsngel
lastloa of sll nations through our. mis
sionaries, and a generous response was
ths result of his earnest talk.
In 'tha evening he took for "his sub'
Ject "If Christ Had Not Bern Born
What?"
In . this connection he showed thst
such a supposition would wipe out all
the churches, do a war with all liters
ture pertaining to Christianity, and with
sll the art which has found its Insplrs
t ion In his name. We muat Imagine,

as prevails In heathen lands, and auch
darkness would prevsil as can be sym
bolised only by the suo going out snd
ths world being -left In blackness.
Dr. Brougher then appealed to his
hearers to admit and acknowledge that
Christ's birth Is the . central fast In
history, snd that ws Should confess him
the source of all Joy and happiness.
Kxcellent music sdded to ths interest
of both services, and ths White Temple

statements of scripture because one Is

was ths ksynots of ths sermon'dellvered
in the First Congregational church yes
terday morning by Rev. E. I House,
D. D.
"Science is sn aristocrat that talks
about ths survivsl of ths fittest,' shs is
a patrician that- tramples the weak un- t-

with a few exceptions hss no room on
its pages but for handsome men and
widow, casting In two . mites. History
has room for an occasional Napoleon,
but ahuta out ths millions." ' ( , ,
- Dr. House slso said: -'
"Now tho gospel can bs apprehended
only by celestial faculties. . The nat
