It was the city's biggest ladles' day In years. Thy were abroaa early and by 9 o'clock the streets swarmed with them, and if they had no bundles cf their owr. to carry they borrowed one from eorne overloaded sister. They were not content to carry the little things like silk thread, lace or a bit of ribbon things that in the past merchants have begged them to car.y but they wanted a bundle that It Is, probably, fortunate for most of us that the good things of life do not always come until later. Other wise this world would be full of young women each suffering from ex aggerated ego and each doing a num ber of foolish things because of a lack of proper balance. But I have always rather doubted that it is better to have misfortunes come early In life than later, accord ing to the popularly expressed opinion. When an older woman suffers serious losses ahe has the sympathy of every body because of her age; yet, after ail, la she not in a measure better fitted to withstand sorrow?

The senate late Monday afternoon con firmed the promotion of 3' brigadier generals to be major generals and H colonels to be brigadier generals. The senate failed to confirm the promotion of Hrigadier General Carl Keiohmann, who was charged with pro-German ut terances. The nominations of Victor Murdock to be member of the federal trade commission, and of Clarence Owsley and Kaymond A. Pearson to be assistant secretaries of agriculture ware also confirmed. on the streets anj In the stores ana people smiled at each otfter appre ciatively and sympathetically. But if the merchants had figured out the re sult of the new edict it waa certainly a surprise the way the women willing ly -offered to do their part for war conservation. The deliveries were per haps heavier when the wagons did go out, for there are certain tnings, line flour and potatoes, sold In bulk, that were beyond the carrying power of the women, but all the little things went home in tfy shopping bags or baakets. The public market, which does not deliver, has done much to train care ful housewives In the economy of se lecting their own food and taking It with them, and now that the move ment is auspiciously inaugurated, milady considers It a mark of distinc tion to be seen with a new mop across her shoulder and a ham in her left hand.

The work of dismantling the .old Coburg sawmill, owned by the Qroth-Kelly ' Lumber company. Is about half completed. The mill had been shut down for more than four years and the foun dations were so badly rotted that it virtually would be necessary to re build it entirely before it could be used. The couipany is utilizing pare ' of the machinery in the Springfield and Wendling mills and selling por tions of It. It will require about three months, with the present crew, 1 it is estimated, to complete the ! work. !

In Portland the shortage will be felt as soon as the base hospital and other i Led Cross organizations In the city ' are called into service. Little difficulty Is anticipated In ! keeping the Portland hospitals up to their full quota. There are enough ! nurses in the city. It is said, who are not being kept busy now, to fill the requirements of the hospitals. It may become necessary, however, ' for slightly invalid people to dlspenie with nurses in their homes.

The children lost their plaoes in reading and forgot how to add and everything, because they just had to listen to the cardinal.
