hopes of the original promoters
of this project have been delay

which need not be discussed
here but which at the time seem

been deeply deplored by every
one and many have gone so far
as to sav that it would never be
completed, and that the money
already expended nad Deen
thrown away.
Such a thought oueht not to
be given even a moment's con
sideration for the building isnot

tees have formulated plans by
which they expect to be able to
complete the work already start

you have not given a pledge here

worthy and needful cause.

' A problem that will soon con
front the parents and particu
larly the mothers in Corvallis is,
what shall we do to keep our
boys and girls busy and out of
mischief during vacation?
The question is a serious one,
not only to the fathers and moth
ers who are driven almost to des
peration by the restless of their
their children, buttothe children
themselves, who must be either
employed in some profitable and
harmless way, or who will seek
amusement and employment
neither helpful nor beneficial, in
order to "work off" their surplus
energy.
Onlv a few more weeks and
the schools will open their doors
and turn out the army of eager,
happy children, and then it will
be time to act.
Every parent should keep this
subject iii mind and have the
campaign planned in advance.
A plat of frround set aside for
the use of the little folks will be
certain to attract the boys and
girls this year, for they have not
forgotten the All-Benton School
fair of last vear- and they can
easily be interested in the com
insr fair, which is to be bigger
and better than that of last fall
A few garden seeds, a plat of
ground and a generous amount
of interest and encouragement
from the ; parents these Avill be
found all excellent thing for the
boys when school closes, and
even now, m spare nours.
And the girls have an equally
sood opportunity of winning
not" only the rosy cheeks that
result from out-door exercise,
but many handsome prizes that
are offered in the various depart
ments, and the mother who fails
to grasp this opportunity of in-terestinp-
the daughter in fine
sewing, bread making, fruit can
ning, jelly making, and a dozen
other kinds of work, is missing
a chance that may never appeal
so strongly again to the daugh
ter.
The school fair will help Ben
ton county fathers and mothers
very materially in solving the
problem of pleasant and profit
able employment for the young
folks during vacation, and if you
do not keep the boys and girls
actively engaged at home they
will elude your care and find en
tertainment and amusement out
sid their homes.
It is up to vou, then, parents,
to say whether the children shall
roam the streets with idle com
panions during the coming sum
mer months, or whether their
hours shall be turned to profit
able account. The time to think
it over is now vou will not be
able to "think" when the child
ren get home.

Friday night? and was one of the
speakers. Concerning' the meet
ing a dispatch to the Oregonian.
says: "The spirit of progress
dawned on Albany tonight. At
a "get together" banquet $08-14
was subscribed for a publicity
campaign for a "greater Albany." '
Tom Richardson, of Portland,
who delivered the leading ad
dress at the banquet tonight,
said this subscription is the best ,
showing made in the first night
by any of the Oregon cities which
have joined in the boosting cam
paign. A union of all the com
mercial organizations of the city
has been effected and a new era
for the Linn county capital has
begun. Three hundred Albany
men" sat down tonight at this
epoch-marking banquet. It was.
held in the local armory and was
the largest assembly of men ever
collected at a dinner in this city.
II. M. Crooks, president of Al
bany college, presided as toast
master and speeches were made
by Governor George E. Cham
berlain, a former Albany citizen;
Mayor J. P. Wallace, State Sena

Concerning a former Corvallis
man, the Eugene Register, Fri
lav. savs: "Thursday. W. W.
Calkins, the well known attorn
ev of Eugene and a member of
the present city council, an
nounced his candidacy for. the
legislature on the republican
ticket. In filing his petition,
Mr. Calkins makes no statement,
relying upon the confidence of
the public in his integrity as a
republican to elect him. Nomi
nation and election of Mr. Cal
"kins will give to Lane eounty-a
man in the legislature who will
be a credit to the country that
sends him to the legislative halls
at Salem. He is a man of excel
lent judgment, well versed in the
law, has splendid executive abil
ity and will prove a r valuable
worker along lines that are bene

Polly Ticks, the quaint old girl;.
Has the men in a sweaty swirl;
First she favors No. 1,
Then she has it on the run;
Then she thinks that Heney's
right,
Then sics Fulton on to fight;
When the socialists say "scat!"
Polly's there with gaudy hat;
When the dems say they will win
Says Polly," 'Tis a sinch; go in!"
When the prohibs try their
strength
Polly hesitates; at length
She says: "It is my dearest wish
To cast my vote with the prohi--
bish!"
When the reps say "We're ahead"'
Says she "Of course the rest are
dead." Polly Ticks is free from guile,
But keeps em guessing all the
t;.,', while.
When a man thinks he is "it."

For Polly has a heart of stone;
She cannot let a good man alone.
