.liams, 6 year old, son of Dr. and Mrs.
Thomas A. Williams, of" tfils city,
measured up to an 11-year-old child at
the recent brain tstts made at the
. Hyslens congrees by Dr. Mary Camp
belt,, director of the Laboratory for
, Chlid Study. Noted sclsntUts from all
. over the world marvelled over this
wonder child, whom his father claims
. is the product ot a . diet of bananas and
"milk since his earliest babyhood.
. Young Reginald has never been fed
any other food. In the tests he stood
100 per cent, both physically and men-
: tally. He is a manly, brave little chap
and devoted to his diet. Among his
playmates tie is called the Banana Baby,
but this does not bother him. His
bananas are always served hlra" with
teream but without sugar. He -eats
them-threr times a day regularly, about
three at a time, then if he wants any
thing between meals he is given more
bananas. , . ;
, The marvellous feature of this
strange food diet is that they do not
seem to pall on his taste, Occasionally
his father gives him a little candy after
meals, and within the last year he has
given iilm meat at one meal three times
a wee.
According to Dr. Williams, who Is
himself a specialist of brain diseases,
especially In the child, his boy la sim
ply the result of normal application
Of eugenics principles, Dr. Williams
believed that bananas were the best
brain and body strengthener he could
feed the youngster. Speaking the other
day of Reginald's physical powers. Dr.
Williams said: "He is one of the
strongest children, physically, I have
ever known. I attribute it purely and
simply to bananas and his simple rules
of living, When be was five he could
carry a 130 pound woman across the
floor. Now he can add 15 pounds to
that weight and carry it without dif
ficulty. To Urri 'W'taf system rfcif"tn
raising my son I have fed him bananas,
given him plenty of fresh air, not
forced his mind, but let. it develop it
self, taught him manliness and a rev
erence for the natural things and ex
pected only the best from him."

i ITS INFLUENCE
i . . ... -
-Sermon Dwells on Practical
Value of Kindness and
Brotherly Regard.
That Christian love, including love
for Jesus, his love for us and our love
for one another as taught by him, has
been the greatest civilizing influence
1n the world, was the text of the sur
. mon preached yesterday at the Kenil
worth Presbyterian church by thu Rev.
Ik K. Richardson. His sermon traced
the development of the spirit of human
ity due to this influence. He said:
.r "All the world loves a lover. But
there are many kincis of lovj. There is
sentimental lovo, inotiur love, patriotic
love and Christian lnvo; and Christian
Jove is of three Kitvlj ;he icve -X3 bear
toward Christ; the love Christ bears fo
rward us, and the lov,; we bear toward
Irach other. It was this last i.amed that
Paul urges In his sublime psalm nf love.
...The early Christians ix-iie-l this les
son. They knew what all otlv;r loves
tneant. But brother) love, was h new
thing. Therefore Jesus said: 'A new
commandment I give you, -hat o love
one another.' This tins b.?en called the
eleventh commandment. Even today It
Is a nsw commandment. 'When Admiral
"iJsWey took the Spaniards prisoners, the
Matter were astonished that ha didn't
"Ijutcher er torture them.
"Our modern life sorely needs the
' lesson of Christian love. According to

the iptspltel..ap.QStle, eloquence, learning,
faith, giving and cvan martyrdom fall
to ie- substitutes fop-Ohrtstlafl lov.
"When we ask the meaning of Chris
tian love, we flnd nine- Ingredients. It
means patience. It means kindness. Be
kind! You will pass through life only
once. When your friauds die, lay flow
ers on their graves. But Hiow them
kindness before they die. Modern eo
clety is unkind. We ore unkind t the
criminal. We are unklid 10 the fallen
men and to fallen women. Don't bo the
elder brother nor be his eldif sister.
Christian love means treneroslty 'love
envleth not.' From Cain's day to ours,
envjvlike a huge snake has. wriggled
through life's forest, devouring human"
life. Ive means also humility 'It Is
not puffed up' it means courtesy. Chi
cao had a church called the Ice cream
church. They had the cream of so
ciety, but they were Ice cold. Love
means usefulness it seekcth not Its
own.
"It means cood temper; for Paul says
'it Is not easily provoked.' It means
guilclessness and sincerity of life. Such
are the nine elements of Christian love
as analyzed by St. Paul, and Jesus
taught in life and word the Importance
or each.
'Such love lasts for ever. The violent
wind storitiH in Portland blew down
signs and rocked houses, but here Is
something that cannot be blown away
love never falleth -knowledge, tongues.
prophecies shall cease, but love abides.
"Christian love toward our fellow
men Is a test of our love, to Christ. He
loved everybody.' All clubs and socie
ties have a badge. The Christian's
badge Is love for Jesus plainly said,
tsy this shall men know that ye are
my disciples If ye love one another
Let the beautiful analysis of Christian
love be the aim of your everyday life-
ror, greater than ralth or hope. Is love."

University of Oregon, Eugene, Or.,
Oct. 21. No man could live in comfort,
or in fact without actual danger from
cold, with tii amount of clothing worn
by the Oregon girl In winter time, ao
cording to the declaration of Mtss Ruth
M. Outipy dean of women, to the treh
man girls of the University of Oregon.
She states that the lack of sufficient
clothing worn by many of the co-eds
in cold weather Is not only ridiculous,
but dnnffcroun, and ' an effort to make
popular bcnalble, dressing will be made
among the university girls.. Ths dean
spoke, in reference to low necks with
open throats, to thin lace-like shirt
waists ' and to toy-like low shoes that
loavfl poorly protected ankle open to
the chill of the mid-Winter gusts,-
"Fenslble dress," declared the . dean,
"Is Just o becoming and H Is much
more comfortable, and Incidentally Is
much more healthy and safe to the
girls. No man can possibly live, with
the amount of clothing worn by many
of the girls. Theje Is no reason for
not wearing heavy substantial shoes and
something at the throat, or for nof
wearinn something besides these thin
summer waists."
Miss Guppy's talk Jto tlio girls -3U
tended o other ptmses of" matntalrrtng
health and to the lire of the college
girl In general. She told them to mix
with student life as much as possible,
to take part In some carefully selected
student activity, to widen their rang
of associations, not only amojig ths co
eds, but among the boys. She did, how.
ever, warn them sgalnst an over Indul
gence In social affairs and reminded
them of the rule thae prohibits the first
year girls from social engagements any
night other than at the weok end. Tha
freshman girls ara expected to be in
their rooms, whother In orority houses
or not. by half past 10 at night, except
upon Friday or Saturday evenings, when
the limit is extended half an hour.
This year the university has adopted
a policy of strictness in rules govern
ing tha.Jife-f- the- girls- in order- that
the Oregon co-ed may establish for her
self a standard, or reputation if It may
be such, that stands' for a special sig
nificance. The Oregon girl will endeavor
to pattern after the ideal girl, and these
rules, though strict, go a long ways
towards establishing this repute. Ths
girls are heartily in eympathx with ths
action of the authorities to limit their
social life,-and are endeavoring to co
operate In every way.
WIDOW FARMER
WINS TROPHY
Commendable Work ..of Wo
man Rewarded by 0.-W.
R. & N. Company.
The usual tale about the widow, and
orphan Invites tears of sympathy for
their unhappy lot. This is a story of
their prize winning success. It was re
ceived yesterday by Traffic Manager It.
B. Miller of ths O.-W. R. & N, -company
as a feature of tha Oakesdale, Wash.,
street fair.
Five or six years ago the Widow
Prown came to Oakesdale. She had
nerve enough to boast that her chief
fortune was her three children. She
didn't stay in town and scrub steps or
wash for a living. She went to the
nearby.coun
maKing live acres produce. Industry
enabled, her to hold ths five acres and
add five to it. Her children worked
with her. A plotura of -the ranch today
shows that it hasn't an uncultivated rod
on it. The Widow Brown, evenings at
home, was leader of a class In agricul
ture, A which her children were ths
students. They read and digested direc
tions as to practical methods of In
tensive farming and rotation of crops.
They make the land work all the time
consequently, but so sensibly and with
such care for the renewal of fertility,
that eaeh year the acres become more
productive. They have learned the prin
ciple of seed selection rso twell that,
plants grown from home grown seed'
produce better yields, in Size and qual
ity, than the seeds purchased from thoss
who make a business of their production
and pale.
.Such effort and method could not long
ro unrewarded. The Widow Brown and
hor children won this year the fine sil
ver cup offered by ths O.-W. R. A N.
company for the best general exhibit,
and so interested were the neighbors
In this evidence of adversity's defeat
that they applauded rather than be
grudged the high honor. Ths cup
the Widow Brown will receive will be
engraved with the names' of her chil
dren, In this way, "Awarded to Mason
and MUllo Brown."
The Widow Brown and her children
are so far from adversity that they
have money In the bank.

AVALANCHE OF LETTERS
FROM ENGLISH GIRLS
Uoltefl Vren Ltaed Wire.)
Victoria, Australia, Oct. 21. Frank
Smith, fruit farm hand, probably will
never write another love titter. During
the packing season he wrote on the tis
sue paper of an apple that he desired
to marry an English gtrl, "as Austral
ians are no good' and invited corres
pondence.
The apple and letter reached Black
pool, England, where the letter was pub
lished in a local newspaper. Since then
famlth has received about 600 replies
from English girls, but the epistolary
avalanche did not stop there. The Aus
tralian papers got hold of the story,
ana smith is now being taunted by all
the girls rrom Perth to Brisbane.
