Tomlin jr., formerly manag ing editor of "Engineering News-Record," who went to France as a war cor respondent for that magazine. An article on map making in the air and on the ground, another of the in distrial problems at a shrapnel plant, and two on the work of the army en gineer school, are among the very good things reprinted iri this work. "Along the British Front by Light Railway" is a study of the narrow gauge system and how these railways have revolutionized the salvage of material. The engineer regiment organised pri marily for railway maintenance, also built balloon sheds. A bridge "built In 11 Vi minutes" is a wonderful Stunt per formed, and the pictures shown, of the different moments of progress, reveal facility in action. "An army astride a four inch pipe line" is a British saying quoted by Mr. Tomlin to indicate the value of water supply. "American Built Docks, in France Completed by Pacific Coast Engineers" is one chapter heading of unusual in terest. The writer says the organiza tion is "hand picked." and he declares, "these constructors have stepped back from the center of the stage to make way for the operating forces, but they have left behind them a convincing rec ord of achievement since they landed in France." The technical department at the Pub lic library has this book on Its shelves. Elks Aid Salvation Army Chehalis, Wash., Sept. 24. In the Sal vation Army campaign held by local Elks.

Meal Orders Filled in Order Received Ideas Acquired Overseas Given Conditions and Customs of the French People Discussed at Woman's League Meeting. By Vella Winner A LARGE attendance and an un usually illuminating address were features of the first meeting of the Professional Woman's League, which was held Saturday at the University club, with the president, Mrs. Elnathan Sweet, presiding. Covers were placed for 50 at tables decorated in old-fashioned garden flowers of many hues com bined with delicate greenery. Following the luncheon Norman F. Coleman, a member of the faotrlty of Reed college, who with Mrs. Coleman was the honor guest for the day, spoke on "France as Seen by the American Expeditionary Forces." He deplored the great misunderstanding arising from the widely different customs of the two nations, classifying these under four heads as follows : "First, our men are coming back with the terrible tales of the filth of the French people, and most of them are true. Most of our men. it so happened. passed through the farm regions where j the poor people lived. They have tiny plots of ground and live in the city ant? as a means of economizing on both space and building room they combine the barn and the house and each front yard has its manure pile. This is a custom of thousands of years and the Fiench have thrived. However, our Americans came along and made them clear it away. This was done with dif ficulty, for most of them had given up their horses, so of course they did not take very kindly to this new rule made by their foreign visitors. "Second, the French are so slow, we are told. Yes. they are ; but I think there is room enough in the world for the slow and the fast. The Americans ran their cars at top speed through the villages and honked their horns loud and long, many times just for the sake of terrifying the villagers, which was not exactly the way to make themselves welcome. 'VThird, then you have heard much cf the treatment of the women in France, that they are allowed to do all of the heavy work. It is a fact they do a great deal of the heavy work, but we must remember that the French have the dowry system, hence the bride has considerable investment in the lit tle farm or the little shop and is ac cordingly eager to make it a success and to a great extent prefers to work. "And fourth, much has been said about the immorality of the French peo ple True, their standards are somewhat different from ours, yet the fact is that it was the Americans that kept alive the Immoral life to a great extent; it was they who patronized the dances and the cabarets and other questionable places. The French girls have always led such a sheltered life that when the war demands were such that they were fcrced Into the munitions and other factories they were not as well prepared to meet the problems that confronted them as our American girls would have been. The war touched the social life of the young French girl in a way that few realize." The October meeting of the league will be in the nature of a home-coming for a large number of league members who by that time will have returned from overseas duty. The West Side Lavender club held Its quarterly birthday luncheon Friday at the home of Mrs. Hattie Mellen, when the blrthdavs of five of the members. Mrs. Caroline Menard, Mrs. Delia Ely, Mrs. McKee, Mrs. Josephine Claggett and Mrs. Hattie Mellen. which fall in July, August and September, were cele brated" with a feast of good things such as the ' lavender laaies Know so wen how to prepare. The tables were dec orated in dahlias and pink roses. An informal afternoon of sociability was enjoyed. The next meeting will be held in two weeks. The Woman's Auxiliary to the Rail way Mall association will hold Its first meeting of the fall season Thursday at 12 o'clock at the home of Mrs. A. J. Stlmpson, 739 East Yamhill street Mrs. C. Litchfield will be the assisting host ess. There win be a pot luck luncheon. Mrs. C. A. Bump is the president of the auxiliary. The Fernwood Parent Teacher asso ciation held its first meeting Thursday evening with a large attendance. Assist ant Superintendant E. H. Whitney spoke emphasizing the good the asso ciation was doing. The principal, Mrs. Allhands, gave a very cordial invi tation to all parents and friends to visit the classes. The committee in charge of the rum mage sale to be given early in October for the benefit of the woman's building fund, held a well-attended meeting Wednesday afternoon at the Hotel Ben son, the chairman, Mrs. E. J. Steele, presiding. The Portland Woman's Re search club, which is taking the initiative in the sale, has $222 of its $500 pledge yet to raise and the plan adopted is for this sum to be taken from the receipts and the remainder to be divided among the other affiliated organizations. Al ready severi local chapters of college sororities and several women's clubs have signified their intention of uniting in making this one of the biggest and most profitable sales of the kind yet held. Chapter F of the P. E. O. Sisterhood will meet Thursday at 2 :30 at the home of Mrs. H. G. Parker, 1133 Cumberland road.

She now is located in New York. ) No matter where the park la, it is always the Heart of the City.

The engines were banked about with earth and miles of cable were 'pulled in from the woods. Manager G. H. Mc Leod expects no great damage unless the wind changes and the fire gets be yond control.

It is best to begin early In the matter of preparing the flower borders for next spring, so that there will be very little disturbance as there is when the whole beds are dug over at once. It Is possible to keep the flowers always in presentable condition by maklpg changes gradually. All the perennials which were started this spring should be set in the perma nent beds very soon now. If .left until spring to be set, the bloom will not be so free, for the plant will be some time in getting established.
