THE closing and crowning event of
the State , Woman's Pres club
was the social gathering on
' Wednesday evening at the home
of Mrs, E. H. Ingham In Wood
stock Mrs. Elisabeth Towns of Hoi
joke. Mass., editor of the Nautilus,
-snd Mrs. Florence Martin Kastland of
the Writer club of Seattle, were honor
guests.
After a brief musical and literary
program, presided over by Mrs. Colista
M. Dowling, president of the club, Mrs.
Kastiand told something of her ex
periences as a writer. She chose for a
topic, "Delays to Success." and men
tioned especially ss the principal draw-I
"backs. Irregularity of work, lack of
preparation, Inability to Judge one's
own work, loss of faith In one's self,
remoteness from markets and the com
petition of some 50,000 writers.
. Mrs. Towne, In a friendly chat, stat
ed that the estimate of 60,000 writers
was quite modest In number, but point
ed out the wide range of the field. She
urged that each one seek self-expression,
not to attempt something in thhr
style, or that style, but to write in
one's own style, and then seek the'
market that dealt n that particular
character of work. She told briefly of
her early experiences as an editor, how
the Nautilus was started here in Port
. land 14 years ago; how It had grown
through those years, and expended.
The musical program included sev
eral Instrumental numbers by Miss
Beryl Cumrnlns, vocal selections by
Miss Nina Joy, with Miss Mildred
Tlnims as accompanist, and Miss Pearl
' Kirk delighted the guests with a read
ing. "An Obstructive Hut in the Pit."'
A special song and yell, written by
Mrs. Leon Story, for the Woodstock
Fourth of July celebration, were given
.an advance tryout, and met with hearty
applause.

It can't be done. It never has been
done." '
"If you can't put little beauty spots

"In the university of the future we-
shall not Insist upon the men and
women taking their studies together,
but we shall Insist upon their taking

shall we have a sound social system."

It the pupils are being taught a valua
ble lesson in thrift. The club also

club held a Society circus for the. ben
efit of a Woburn charity and made
$1000, which it turned over to the
charitable Institution's board. For the
last three years it has endeavored to
Improve its lecture course, as well as
to render it available to the public. In
this way It has given many who are

CLUB REVIEWS WORK Pit
Mrs. Frederick Eggert Recalls
the Achievements of the
Year in Report.
At the annual meeting of the Port
land Woman's club Friday afternoon,
Mrs. Frederick Eggert read her re
port. She said in part: i
"The year Just closing has not been
for the women of Oregon, and for the
membefs of this lub in particular, the
epoch making period which distin
guished its predecessor, in which equal
suffrage was granted us by the just
and generous men of our state.
"We have this year received 28 new
members. These, with 32 the previous
year, make 60 added during this ad
ministration, and we now have 326 ac
tive and 39 associate members, a total
enrollment qf 365, which makes a working-
force "of 326 women. From our
midst four have departed for "that
bourne from whence no traveler re
turns. They were Mrs. M. A. Dal
ton, Mrs. Roderick Prince, Mrs. E. B.
Wight and Mrs. Philip Lawton.
"Our new plan of alternating pro
gram and business meetings is working
very satisfactorily, and the more care
ful enforcement of the rule of admis
sion by ticket only has greatly les
sened the work of our financial secre
tary. Our financial condition was never
better, if as good. We have contributed
to the scholarship loan fund, to benev
olences, to various public enterprises,
provided the hall for the May suf
frage rally, carried our department
work at increased expense, and have
Increased our building fund to 84000
without hampering any activities along
cultural and social lines. This will be
shown by the reports of committees
and departments.. .
Achievements of the Tsar,
"We have representation on the mo
tion picture censorship committee, we
still maintain fraternal alliance with
the Visiting Nurse association and the
Prisoner's Aid society, to- which we
sent the net returns ($10.00) over and
above expenses of Dr. Woods Hutch
inson's lecture. We joined the anti-cigarette
crusade, and through Special
committees have cooperated with the
city health department in the anti-fly
campaign, With the Progressive Busi
ness Men s club in the public market
enterprise," with the Rose Festival as
sociation and with the Portland Ad
club In the Oregon Industry league.
We have united with other women's or
ganizations in the school beautifying
plans, the woman's building project, as
also in the effort to secure a better
housing ordinance. We labored to save
the University of Oregon appropria
tion, and the club has put itself on
public record as favoring the Llnd
quist pure fabrics bill, the seamen's
bill, and the Works national temper
ance bill.
'As contributing to the financial suc
cess of these and other enterprises, the
club has been placed under lasting ob
ligation to tne three dally newspapers,
the Oregonian, The Journal and the
Lvening Telegram, for the generous
and unstinted contribution of their
valuable space for publicity.
"If this administration has had one
desire above another. It has been to
work on a plane elevated above and be
yond pettiness? that the club might be
large in thought, word and deed, real
izing that it is the little things that
create differences, that in the big things
of ljfe we are one. Only as we place
service before self, and the good of the
whole above personal advantage, will we
be true to our mission. In the words of
our club Collect? 'May we strive to
touch anf know the great woman heart
Jf us all. Then and then only shalj
we. in the words of Mrs. Caroline Sev
erance, dedicate ourselves and our
club To the highest welfare of our
homes, our schools, our city, our coun
try and the world,' and we shall have
reached the highest measure of suc-
cess, service to the social whole.' "
cumbency Mrs. Jones has seen the club
grow to be the largest woman's club In
the United States.

U. S. Immigration Inspector Barbour Addresses Coterie on the
. Immigration Problem.
At a recent meeting of the Coterie,
J. H. Barbour, United States immigra
tion Inspector, gave a comprehensive
address on "The Immigration Prob
lem," Baying In part: One of our re
cent presidents ranked immigration
next in importance to the conservation
of public resources. Some have said
that we have taken Into our body po
litic too great a mass for" our powers
of digestion and assimilation, but re
member had there not been la tremen
dous Inflow of all races from all na
tions, there would have been no such
Portland as we have today, no such
Chicago, no such New York. It Is o4y
the poor who are unable to reconcile
themselves to the exactions and condi
tions of their country, hence the Inrush
of Irish driven from home by famine
in the forties and fifties; Germans by
political oppression in the fifties;
Scandinavians by economic conditions
in the early eighties; and In the past
10 ' years Russian Jews dricven here
by religious persecution, and Italians,
Roumanians, (Greeks, Turks and other
southeastern Europeans exiled by in
tolerable home conditions.
Million Z mmi grants Per Tear.
In the early eighties a general re
striction was placed on immigration,
and today the i government excludes
Idiots, imbeciles, feeble minded per
sonsr epileptics, insane persons, pau
pers, persons likely to become public
charges, beggars, persons afflicted
with dangerous contagious diseases.
criminals . polygamists, anarchists.
Drostitutes. procurers and contract la
borers; as well as all oriental labor-
. . . , . , i j
ers. neverineiess. wiin tne oaii bmccu
upon aliens within the classes named
there is an immigration now of l.ooo.
000 persons a year. With all possible
care many undesirables reach our son,
and there is now pending in congress a
new Immigration bill containing pro
visions of a more severs restrictive
character than anything heretofore at
tempted. :;'r
-The real knot of the Immigration
problem in the United States is ths
fact that the alien population piles up
in the cities. If the hordes of for-
eigners who add to .the problems of
poverty and congestion In our Indus
trial centers could be scattered over
our broad agricultural lands, they
would, instead of being a problem and
often a burden to the country, become
a help and a blessing. The greater
number of aliens who come to our
shores are originally of the agricul
tural class, knowing little or nothing
of what this country has to offer them
in the way of their previous occupa
tions, they- naturally seek the first
means of profitable industry which
comes to their hands. This is usually
found in the. cities, where most of their
relatives arid friends who have pre
ceded them, have congregated. They
get a foothold and a living which, com
pared to their previous existence Is a
long step upward; but as they adopt
our customs and manners and begin
to grasp our ideals they find that they
are still at the bottom of the ladder.
Information is Heeded.
On nf the reasons for the immi
grant staying in the city Is the fact
that he has no concrete knowledge of
how to get to the country. Too much
effort Is made to turn the American,
who thrives best in the city, back to
the farm, and too little attention is
devoted to getting the alien out of the;
foreign colonies of the city and onto
the land. A taste of our city life, with
all its attractions and allurements, is
fatal to the appetite for ' laborious
farm work, but in the stress of hard
times many a thrmy city laborer
earning fronv2 to S3 a day would be
glad of the opportunity to iura,m
talents to the cultivation of our fertile,
lands, but unless he has friends to di
rect him he does not know what to do
to accomplish this. Owners of farm
lands, agents, syndicates and compa
nies have not always been scrupulous
ly fair in their dealings with the unso
phisticated foreigner, and I regret to
say that he is often exploited by his
own countrymen." We of the Pacifio
coast know little of the burden that a
vast lmmtsrration. puts upon a com
inanity, of this we shall learn when
the canal Is opened and foreigners will
rush to our shores in numbers that are
hard for us to now. even dream."
Annual Meeting to Be Held
Tomorrow; Work of Or
ganization in Review.
The annual meeting of tha Ladles'
Auxiliary of the Pioneer Association
will be held at the Multnomah, hotel
on Monday, June t9, at 2 o'clock. The
election of officers for the coming year
will be held and other business trans
acted. The banquet recently given the
pioneers at the Armory was a most
happy occasion. The Auxiliary desires
to expres its deep appreciation of the
generosity of the public which has
made possible this pleasant occasion.
At each reunion many familiar faces
are sadly missed, principal among
which this year was that of F. X. Mat
thleu of Champoeg fame, who was al
ways a most interesting and Interested
attendant.
John Minto. Senior,' was present and
contributed largely to' the occasion by
his amusing and Interesting anecdotes
of the old campfire days.
The annual banquet served the plo
neers by the Ladles' Auxiliary of the
Pioneer association has aroused so
much interest and enthusiasm by out
siders each year that a brief account Of
the organisation is of interest.
Frequent meetings of the Pioneer
association had been held from its be
ginning at . Salem ia 1867 until 1890
when it was held in Portland at the
then new exposition building on Wash
ington street, but no repast was served.
In that year Mrs. Antony Noltner, wife
of the editor of a Portland newspaper
of that time, with two friends who
were visiting her, Mrs. M. O. Moore
and Mrs. D. P. Thompson, remained
after the afternoon program to par
take of a basket luncheon which Mrs.
Noltner had provided for herself and;
friends, when they noticed two elderly
couples sitting near, who were evi
dently strangers In the city. It was
found that these elderly people were
eager to attend the evening exercises
but were not strong enough to go out
for their dinner and return. Mrs. Nolt
ner invited them to partake of her bas
ket luncheon and It was at this time
that Airs. Noltner spoke of the advis-1
ability of serving a luncheon to all the I
visiting pioneers on the following year.
Accordingly, In 1891, Mrs. Noltner
and Mrs. Rosa F. Burrell with the as
sistance of several ladies, served , a
luncheon at the exposition building
between the afternoon and evening
programs. Those assisting Mrs. Nolt
ner and Mrs. Burrell at this time were
Mrs. Richard Williams, Mrs. Benton
Klllin, Mrs. P. L. Willis, Mrs, L. L.
McArthur, Mrs. Robert Porter, Mrs. C.
M. Cartwrlght, Mrs. C. B. Bellinger,
Mrs. J. H. McMillen. Mrs. S. A. More
land, Mrs. A. H. Morgan, Mrs. H. L,
Plttock, Mrs. D. P, Thompson, Mrs. T.
A. Struble, Miss Susie Cosgrove. Mrs.
C. F. Kent. Mrs. B. H. Bowman, Mrs.
John McCraken, Mrs. George L. Story.
Mrs. A. E. Borthwick. Mrs. Van De
lashmutt, Mrs. A. N. King, Mrs. Dalton,
Mrs. J. . W. Murray and Mrs. John
Burke. The luncheon was a great suc
cess and was continued year after
year by a committee of ladies ap
pointed by the board of directors of
the Pioneer association, with the as
sistance of other ladies selected by the
committee.
Mrs. C. M. Cartwrlght was the re
cognized president of what had become
to be called, in 1895, the Ladies Auxil
iary of the Pioneer Association.. Mrs.
Cartwrlght filled her J position for a
number of years until she felt the
duties of the office were too arduous
for her failing health when the com-.
mittee appointed Mrs. John Minto, vice
president, to assist Mrs. Cartwrlght.
In 1913 the Ladies Auxiliary held its
first formal election and permanently
organized as a branch of the Pioneer
association. Mrs. Benton Killin. who
from the beginning had been the chair- j department in the Portland Academy,
man of the executive committee, was i have gone to California for the sum
elected Dresident of the auxiliary: Mrs. ! mer. their purpose being to work with
John Minto. vice president; Mrs. Her-
l . ... . j A t. ,ir
Gillette. treasurer. The Axer.ntlv
board for many years consisted of Mrs. I
Benton Klllin, Mrs. D. P. Thompson
and Mrs. I. W. Pratt. At the time of i
the
tawaiivj j l 1.113 caci, uiivrj uuaiu
caused by Mrs. Pratt's death, Mrs. P.
L. Willis was appointed to fill her
place and this same executive board,'
consisting of Mrs. D. P. Thompson,
Mrs. Benton Killin and Mrs. P. L. Wil-
lis. was again elected. Mrs. Killin has '
been a most energetic and capable !
president. She has. been most ably as-I
sisted by the other officers and mem-1
bers. In consequence the annual ban- !
quet of the pioneers has grown to be a
delightful occasion.
"In the Mountains of the
Basilicata."
Last week a few lines appeared in
this column about I. N. Fleischner's
painting, "Storm Clouds," by Leon
Dabo. Among the ether paintings at
the Museum of Art from the Fleisch
ner collection is one by William Sar
tain called "In the Mountains of the
Basilicata. Sartain was born in Phil
adelphia in 1843. His father, a distin
guished engraver, lived to a great age
and was ths friend of many of the in
telectual men of the country. His
"Reminiscences" form a' large volume
which may be had at the public library.
Sartain himself, though a mas of some
in is still nalntlna and hla work
holds its place with that of our young-
er arusiB. a line example oi nis
painting, "Aqueduct, Algeria, was
owned by the late Mrs. C. H. Lewis,
and T B. Wilcox Owns another beau
tiful one, "New Jersey Meadows."
"In the Mountains of the Basilicata,"
shows the distinguished maturity of
his art. In it the mists of early
morning cap and cling about the top
of rocky mountains, the rugged sides
of which sink into a deep abyss. In
the foreground, a mountain side, cov
ered with a' short growth of drying
grass, slopes also down to the blue.
! shadowy depths of this crevice be.
tween the steep rocky hills.- The
painting offers no detail, nor small
prettiness to attract the casual eye,
but in ' its splendid calm and distinc
tion, its expression of deeply felt beau
ty of a reserved sort,' it exerts a last
ing attraction. It is so quiet that
one may easily pass it by. though it is
quite large, so full of repose that It
may seem cold. But once the charm
Is felt of its distinguished reserve, and
its harmonious though Inconspicuous
color, the firm painting of the bare
mountains and the fleecy mist which
nearly obscures the pale blue sky be
come filled, with a permanent appeal
which will not wear out. ;

over more of the earth's surface than
any other artist; he is constantly, on
the lookout for something new and un
usual to transfer to his canvas. An
Interesting part of his experience, per
sonal and artistic, has been his ex
ploration of South America, where
Braxil. Chile. Peru and Argentine have
come under his eye. The rugged
beauty of these little known countries,
their bigness and marvelous richness
of color, are striking features of the
pictures shown by Mr. Christmas.

The Jackass in Art.
A clever if not altogether artistic
American spending some time in Paris,
wrote home recently of the annual
salons, of two of the societies of
French artists, saying:
"The pictures are, as might be
expected from so great a number.
good, bad. and indifferent, with some
few excellent ones. The subjects
range over everything on earth below.
In the water under the earth and. in
the heavens above
"There are men In armor and women
in ths nude, and there are also can
vases whose sole claim to being
pictures Is that they are framed. - I
refer to the so-called "Impressionist
school. where the raw color ths pic
tures are usually monochromes In
varying shades looks as If It had
been laid on in gobs with a palette
knife or a trowel.
There is a silly Jingle which runs
something after this fashion:
I've never seen a purple cow.
And never hope to see one;
But this I'll tell you anyhow.
I'd rather see than be one.
If the inspired author of the above
lines had visited this year's salons
he would have had a surfeit of eurnle
cows and, green meadows.
