"It seems an Injustice to the city that
her tirestlre- should be lowered as It
hna been. There Is no city on the coast
which has the subetantlel .financial
foundation of Portland. , With this as a
basin there is no reason why she should
not be known for what she Is in erery
part of thai country.

It Is an awakening that presents many
problems for tho people to eolre and

A new movement, which will oe
watched with great Interest Is the kin
dergarten established under the dtreo-
tlon of Miss Aphla Dlmlck at the
Brooklyn school, which this year begins
the term with a registry of II pupils.
Miss lone Townaend will have charge
of the school. She has recently returned
from taking special and graduate work
at People's college, Indianapolis, where
after hr reaular course she made a
sneclal study of kindergarten, domestic
science ana sewing.

She will have as assistant. Mrs. Charles
Jones, a mother who is so anxious to
have her child attend the kindergarten
that although she is not a resident of
that district she is willing to give her
services as pianist to allow ner onua
tne training.
In order to understand how the kin
dergarten oomes Into being and how It
can be supported by the Mothers' club
and teachers of the Brooklyn school it
is neceeeary to go back to the organisa

Bverr day is "wash day" with the
Gentry Brothers tmous shows, for the
management prides Itself on having the
neatest and prettiest of tented shows
en tour, and next to a performance
whose quality and .character have given
the shows an enviable Individuality, re-
Moloes in that cleanliness which is next
to the highest virtue.
The hundreds of trained dogs with
the shows are led to the grounds as
soon as the tents are in place and then
turned loose, but it is a liberty with a
string attached to it. For no sooner
are the dogs on hand than they are
brought face to face with huge Iron tubs
and even the unobservlng layman can
tell by the expression on their canine
countenances that they know what is
coming. Some are sad and some are
glad; some "yip" in pleased anticipa
tion and others growl In sullen resent
ment, while the healthiest ones bark
their Joy and the weaker ones whine In
fear.
When he oomes out of this ordeal
another tub awaits him and presiding
over this tub Is a lusty youth armed
with a cake of soap and a full grown
scrubbing brush. These implements of
cleanliness he appliea to the canine co
median with might and main, soaping
and scrubbing up one side and down
the other until the dog's skin is as pink
as a baby's and every sign or travel
has been removed from each Individual
nair. .
Then the dogs are all ranged along
a . big table, and there thev sit -and
shiver and shake arid quarrel and make
up, and eventually get dry with the as
sistance oi sun ana wina as is ins way
