Portland Ralph Sohneelock & Co of this city have secured the contract for constructing the Irrigation system of the North Unit district.

State Fund To For Slain Cattle Exhausted slowly shook hJs Pay PORTLAND'S OPPORTUNITY Portland has another opportunity to prove its interest in developing the assets of Oregon and cooperating in making the! state a Mecca for sight-seeing tourists. Stephen Mather, chief of, the Bureau of National Parks, has asked the capitalists and, business men of the metropolis to adequately finance the hotel concessions at Crater Lake National Park the one national park prove his own faith in the project, Mr. Mather offers a $5,000 subscription from his own pocket. Ten years ago, before there was even an auto road to Crater Lake, the hotel concessions were granted to A. L. Parkhurst, the only man in Oregon who had vision and faith enough in the future of the park to risk his money in developing it. Mr. Parkhurst was not a hotel man, perhaps not tempermentally fitted as public host, but he has loyally stood-by the proposition and invested a considerable sum in permanent improvements. He has repeated ly and futilly sought the cooperation of the monied men of the metropolis. The years rolled by. Good roads were built. The park be came advertised as one of the wonders of the world and each year has seen an increasing number of visitors. Each year Parkhurst footed the deficiency in operation by the sacrifice of personal property. With the increased traffic the project is now in a fair way to become a paying one if the additional investment demanded by the growing business, is forthcoming. California has adequately financed Yosemite, and Washington successfully financed Ranier park and the investments are Dav- ing ones, despite short season and isolation. Crater Lake alone among tne national parks is inadequately financed. If Portland does not assist in developing Crater Lake, probably California will and the park become, to all intent and purposes, a California attraction, with San Francisco the gateway and tourists routed tnrougn Klamath to the lake and back south via Medford It was" Medford enterprise and energy that secured highway improvements to tne pane and within the park, and Medford cooperation that has sustained Parkhurst in his effort. Portland has viewed Crater Lake with the lethagy the metropolis regards an 01 uregon outside its immediate envions. Perhans Portland at last realizes its obligations in the development of the state.

"HEUiO BILL!" at home without answering any rid dles for strangers." "I suppose you'll get your house finished sometime," Buster ventured. "I hope to," said the Carpenter, "though It .certainly won't be tomor row, on account of all the interrup tions I'm having today." Now, that honest workman meant his remark to be a hint. But the idea never occurred to Buster that the Carpenter had him in mind, when he mentioned interruptions. And Buster went right on talking. "I'd suggest that you work nights "HELLO "Oh, yes, I have many times but in the end most of them take it philoso phically. In fact, much more so than the wives." "That was because, Miss Porter, you did not hear all that was said. The wife had hurts that no one bue she could know." "Don't you like men, Mrs. Bordon?" "Individually, yes, very much; in the mass not at all." Tomorrow Back Home. -"Hello Bill!" Caning of Girl Pupils in English " Schools Criticized London. Caning f girl pupils In elementary schools by their male tea chers, a practice which has been gen eral in England for many years, re cently has become the subject of much criticism and the Dally Mail has start ed an agitation for Its abandonment. Many letters have been written the newepapers, the majority of. the wri ters advocating infliction of corporal puishment of girls, when necessary, by women teachers. They protest that a sensitive girl may never fully recover from the .n in the daytime," he said "T'h think about it," the Carpenter promised. "And now," he added, "now I must go back to my carpen tering if you'll excuse me. i,i hofnro Buster could say an other word the Carpenter slipped through his doorway and vanished, "f hm, he'll do as I suggested, Buster Bumblebee said to himself, as v, oimiosslv away from the big poplar where the Carpenter lived. "If I shouldn't get my house until cold weather comes I don't see how I could have a house-warming; and then all my friends would be disap pointed." The more he thought about the matter the more disturbed he became until at last on the following day) he felt that he simply must go back and speak to the Carpenter aganl. Buster noticed, as he drew near to the Carpenter's house once more, that there was a crowd in the Carpenter's dooryard. Everybody looked so sor rowful ' that Buster was sure some thing dreadful had happened. "What's the matter?" he asked little Mrs. Laddybug, who was wiping her eyes with a lace pocket-handkerchief. "It's the Carpenter," she answered, as soon as she could speak. "He's disappeared. And now we've juat heard vhat's become of him. Johnnie Green caught him yesterday and has made him a prisoner! That was bad news indeed for Buster Bumblebee. He was so sorry that he swallowed hard three or four times before he could say a word. And then he began to groan. "This is terrible!" he moaned at last. And all the Carpenter's neigh bors gathered around him and said what a kind-heatred young gentle man he was, but htat it was no more than vou might expect of a queen's son.

"Hflh Bill!" Selfishness Isn't it a queer thing that we hu man beings more or less are dogs in the manger. I never have had the slightest feeling of romantic love for my cousin, Charles Goodwin, but it had been pleasant to my vanity all the years since I wore my hair in pig tails for him to show me by word, action and devotion that he had never loved nny other girl but me and had stayed single for my sake. That Is a selfish quality, isn't U? But we are all more or less selfish and it rather hurt me to find that on this, the last night In my mother's Portland Bank Deposits Gain .Bank deposits in Portland Increased $20,440,502.53 in the year ending June 30 last, according to a summary of banking conditions just compiled by Will H.
