day, the occasion being- the luncheon
riven by the Portland Parent-Teacher
associations as a fitting: close to the
most successful convention ever held
by the Oregon Congress of Mothers.

Itctefxsd by a strict adherence to the

-ffignity and businesslike management
prevailing, and the luncheou yesterday
closed the three days' convention which
brought to the city delegates from
a score or more of the smaller towns,
which, with the Portland delegates,
brought the attendance up Into tho
hundreds at each session.

Rose" (Carrie Jacobs 'Bond). Mrs. Ol
son was accompanied by Miss Claire
Cakes and violin obligatos were played
by D. P. Nason.
1a It. Alderman, city superintendent
of schools, was the first speaker. He
dwelt upon the effort being made to
fit the school to the need of the com
munity, and the need of the individual
child. He mentioned the introduction
cf the foreign languages into the
grades, the large attendance at the
. night schools, there now being an en
rollment of 6000. The speaker , de
clared that adult education Is. a new
phase of psychology which Is being
successfully worked out In Portland,
where many gray haired men and wom
en are attending the night school. He
. declared that those who do not love
children should not be teaching school;
they, should be raising chickens; and
he left with his audience this slogan:
Iet us live with our children."
Mra- F- S. Myers, through whose
untiring efforts the entire city of
Portland was organized into parent
teacher associations, taking precedence
in that respect over any city in the
United States, then outlined some of
the individual accomplishments of the
62 associations of the city, compris
ing a membership of more than 4000.
Mrs. Helen Miller Senn advocated the
encouragement of the child's Imagina
tion, Illustrating her talk wth a num
ber of cliarming verses interpreted Id
her own inimitable style. She made
a strong plea for teaching children vo
cal Interpretation and a love of the
really fine things In literature.
Miss Hallle Thomas, president of the
Grade Teachers' association, declared,
that the name Parent-Teacher assocla-.
tlon gave a false idea of Its representa
tion, inasmuch as not a single teach
er's name appears on the list of of
ficers and committees numbering be
tween 300 and 400.
Irving E. Vinlng, the well known
boys expert, who was here from Ash
land for the convention, spoke infor
mally, commending the Oregon women
on their splendidly developed individ
uality, on their fearlessness and their
cooperation. He made a plea that more
attention be paid to character build
ing, to the inculcating the Ideas that
make for boys and girls Of fine morat
development as well , as jmental attain
ments. He emphasize2ft need for
more and better traineffteachers with
special reference to the great need of
reopening the state normal school a
Ashland. Oregon istnot turning out
one-third of the teachers necessary
for her own use.
Homer Maria then gave two delight
ful baritone solos, with Miss Oakes
at the piano. Mrs. W. A. Laldlaw made
an extended report on the very effi
cient work of the social service com
mittee. Mrs. A. Alexander told of some
of the good things that are being ac
complished at the Girls Trade school,
laying special stress on the democracy
and practicability of the school.
Mra. W. J. Hawkins, under the head
of "New Work," deplored the common
use of the words naughty child, wilful
child, thoughtless child, bad boy, way
ward girl. She declared herself a
strong advocate of the back to the
home movement, yet in the nature of
things there are many homes that sim
ply cannot supply the demands for the
child, and for these the public school,
the public playground, the public swim
ming pool and the public park should
provide. Miss Lillian Tingle spoke
Interestingly and entertainingly on
school lunches, telling what Is best
suited to satisfy and sustain the grow
ing child. She made a plea also for
the right 'sort of breakfasts and a
wholesome, nourishing dinner. Th
luncheon was presided over by Mrs
Martin Wagner.

SPEECH 10 SOLDIERS
Told Men on Firing Line That
British Were No Help to
Them.
(United Pres Leased Wire.)
Paris. Oct. 31. The lack of judg
ment displayed by ex-Premier Joseph
Caillaux in a recent speech for which
he is now serving a eentence of two
weeks' imprisonment In a French for
tress, was the subject of surprised
comment by prominent men here to
day. The address was made on the fight
ing line at Doulens, where, talking to
troops belonging to his own political
constituency, Caillaux was quoted as
saying:
"If any of you would like to be
transferred to lees dangerous positions
you have only tojtell me. The situa
tion is exceedingly gTave for we are
fighting the world alone; the British
are no help to us."
Inasmuch as the ex-premier's mili
tary rank is only that of a paymaster
and his political power is not very
effective at the present time. It was
remarked that there was small chance
of his beins able to secure the trans
fers he mentioned, and astonishment
was expressed that he should have been
so indiscreet as to promise them.
His reference to the British, how
ever, was what resulted in his im
prisonment. In this comment he un
doubtedly reflected a certain popular
resentment felt by the French, -not
really at lack on the Britons' part to
lend effective aid, but at what is con
sidered a disposition on their news
papers' part to represent the English
as having done all the fighting and to
ignore the French almost entirely.
That a man of Caillaux's calibre
should have expressed himself in a
manner' calculated to promote ill feel
ing between the allies at so critical a
time was a thing, however, which even
the ex-premier's own friends said they
could not understand.

Sammy Jay learns About Old Man
Coyote's Home.
No matter where your home may be.
Though north or south or east or
west.
Of all the places on the earth
It is to you the very best.
Of course jt is. It Is very right and
proper that jt should be. Peter Rabbit
says that he wouldttt think much' of
any one who didn't tjiSnk his own home
the very best place rn the world. Just
because It is home, you love It. And
you love all its surroundings, even
when they are not at all beautiful. And
so when It happens that you move
your home to some other place you
think of the place you have left, and
there Is a great deal of love and affec
tion for It in your thoughts. That Is
just the way it was with Old Man
Coyote. He was living on the Green
Meadows, and he was very well satis
fied there, but once in a while his
thoughts would go back to his old
home, the home where he had learned a
great deal of the cleverness which
made him the smartest and most
feared of all the Green Meadow people.
He never had mentioned that old home
until now. Sammy Jay had said that
he would ike to hear about it, and
somehow Old Man Coyote felt Just like
telling about It.
"It was In the west; the great, wide,
wonderful west," said he, with a far
away look In his eyes.
"Is it as great and wide as the Green
Meadows?" asked Sammy Jay.
Old Man Coyote looked at Sammy
ptttylngly. "So much greater and so
much wider that I could trot and trot
for days and days and not reach the
edge," he replied.
Sammy looked as If this was hard to
believe, but he said nothing, and Old
Man Coyote continued: "The sky was
bluer, the grass was greener, and the
very air was sweeter than any you
have known."
Sammy had It on the tip of h!s
tongue to say that he didn't believe a
word of this, because no sky conld be
bluer than the one over them that very
minute, no grass could be greener than
that of the Green Meadows, and no air
could be sweeter than that which he
breathed every day, but jusfr in time he
remembered that Old Man Coyote was
talking of his old homo, and that that
made a difference. Sammy was smart
enough to know that these things might
seem so much better to Old Mn Coy
ote just because they concerned his old
home. So Sammy held his tongue and
listened while Old Man Coyote went on.
"Is It as great and wide as the
Green Meadows?" asked Sammy
Jay.
"Out there Is room, plenty of room,
for every one room enough to turn
around without hitting your tall
against your neighbor. There's plenty
to eat, and life is really worth the
living out there."
"Don't you think It worth living
here?" asked Sammy. "I notice you
took the greatest care not to get in
one of those traps. If it Is such a
wonderful place, why did you leave It
to come here to the Green Meadows?"
OM Man Coyote hung his" head just
a wee bit as if ashamed of something.
"I didn't leave it because I wanted to,"
he replied in a low voice.
Sammy stared down at Old Man Coy
ote In round-eyed wonder. 'Somehow,
he couldn't think of anybody who
could make any one so smart as Old
i Man Coyote do anything he didn't want
to. "Why why did you leave, then?"
he asked.
"Because I was caught In one of these
things and taken away," growled Old
Man Coyote in a very low voice, as If
both angry and ashamed that such a
thing conld happen.
"Oh I" gasped Sammy In a low voice.
"Ob, I though you' knew all about
traps."
"I was careless,- replied Old Man
Coyote very simply.

QUESTIONABLE ACT OF
BOTH
AND
RAILROAD
CHARGED BY MINISTER
Gobbling, Up of Fine Timber
Land fn Callapooia Valley,
Is Accusation Made.
J. B. Lister, minister of the Chris
tian church of Sunnysidev-VWash., says
that eight citizens of Eugene, when
they learned of a section of valuable
timber land that was open for settle
ment and endeavored to file on timber
claims for the purpose of acquiring
homes, were blocked by the Booth
Kelly Lumber company and the South
ern Paicifio company. This was at the
time that R. A. Booth's brother, J. H.
Booth, was receiver of the land office
at Roseburg.
"Eight respectable citizens of Eu
geno learned that township 14, range
7 east, was open for settlement,' writes
Kev. Mr. Lister. "Some of the number
employed a cruiser and visited the
township. They reported to the oth
ers that all was good to look at; that
the land was covered with the finest
yellow fir and would measure on the
stump 16,000,000 to 20,600,000 feet to
the quarter section; and the land good
for farming and stock. J ;
"Following this report- they all vis
ited the land again; paid their filing
fees to the commissioner at Eugene;
employed their cruiser again and start
ed to survey eight quarter sections,
believing the whole township open.
"A dark cloud veiled the horizon of
their hope, for they discovered' little
cabins on every quarter and the names
of the builders tacked on the cabin
with the same kind of commissioner's
receipt as we held also posted to view,
but not a soul living in any of the
cabins.
"At the gateway of the valley of the
Callapooia, up which we had followed
35 miles, a settler of many years told
us when we camped in his yard, 'there
is no use for you men to try to get
any land up there! The Booth-Kelly
Lumber company and the Southern Pa
cific have sent men up there and have
placed men on every quarter aa dum
mies. The company will buy all that
timbered land for a song. They Intend
to. build a railroad .and take all that
timber out.'
"Two were elected to go to Rose
burg and place their filings on record.
J. H. Booth met them at the land of
fice, took their receipts and on being
asked for Information as to the land
placed a large book about two feet
square and three inches thick before
them and uttered not one word. 'Mum'
was evidently the counsel.
"A friend of one of the men came
into the office at this instant and
he was asked, "Why do we get this
treatment?" He replied like the set
tler at the gateway to the land, you
cannot get anything there. The min
ute you would step off the land you
would be supplanted.'
"The eight families of Eugene had
planned to all move out there and
make a settlement. But they realized
what they were up against with the
Booth Brothers senator and land of
fice receiver."

Dr. C. J. Smith was enthusiastically
received at a woman's neighborhood
meeting held Thursday afternoon at
the home of Mrs. A. M, Wing, 1128
East Flanders street. The candidate
for governor talked briefly on "Wom
an's Sphere in Politics.'' declaring that
women always have taken first place
in forwarding moral and humanitarian
measures. ''
"The Oregon system," said Dr.
Smith, "was not completed until the
state granted woman suffrage in 1912.
Now women can use not only the"ir per
sonal influence, but their votes as well,
in promoting the greaf moral and
humanitarian policies in which they
are especially interested;
"It was my observation in the legis
lature that women have a peculiar
sphere in politics.
Faith In Women's Tote.
"When improvement of the Columbia
river, building of the Celilo canal or
extention of the jetties at the Colum
bia's mouth Is proposed the people be
hind the project are members of com
mercial clubs, bankers and business
men.
"When there Is something to be done
for the deaf and dumb, when a Juven
ile court is to be established, mothers'
pensions granted or laws passed for
the regulation of child labor, it Is not
the men as a rule, but the leading
women of Oregon who are especially
Interested. It is the women who are
backing these measures and securing
their enactment.
"Experience has tanght me to have
the greatest faith In the women's
vote. It will always be cast for the
uplift of humanity."
Dr. Smith complimented the women
on what they have already done and
the efficiency they have shown as
citizens and electors. He referred
especially to the schools, calling at
tention to the fact that women for a
number of years have had the ballot
in school matters.
Stand Is Reaffirmed,
"What has been the result?" he
asked. 'During the past seven years
the echool3 hav Increased 400 per
cent In efficiency, and it la no dis
paragement of the men to say that
branches of government under their
role control have not increased In ef
ficiency in a like degree."
Dr. Smith reaffirmed his stand for
law enforcement tmd received great
est applause from the women for this
portion of his address.
"I have been in many parts of the
state during this campaign." he said.
and I yet have to find the firsts
woman to question my stand on en
forcement of the laws. Some men
have cautioned me against this Issue,
but not a woman has even hinted that

The candidate for governor again
secured the women's applause when he
referred to the Chinese and other Asi
atic labor qusUon. He said he was in
favor of giving American labor its Just
dues, that the condition of home labor
is Improving and he would oppose any
attempt to go back to a policy of Im
porting Chinese, Hindus or Japanese.
Efficiency Only Test.
A woman, who stated after the meet
ing that she was acting for somebody
else, read a list of typewritten ques
tions to Dr. Smith. They related to
the stand ho wouldtake as governor
In the appointment Of doctors on state
roaras. He was asked whether he
would discriminate between the vari
ous schools of medicine.
Dr. Smith said that when he gets in
the governor's chair he will leave pro
fessionalism at home.
"Kfficiency will be the only test."
he declared. "People have their own
Ideas on the question of . healing, the
same as on religion. Differences of
opinion on either question are not a
proper issue for a public official to
consider. Efficiency will be the only
test."
There was a large attendance of Lau
relhurst women at the meeting. All
did not declare themselves for Dr.
Smith, but the sentiment of the big
majority was strongly in favor of him.
"He doesn't try to dodge any real
Issue," said one of the women. "He
was open and frank with us. Vou
know we women admire men we can
depend upon."
