The celebration of "Arbor Day" at Miss Warren's select school on Friday last .was an occasion of most Interest ing and appropriate exercises, which reflected great credit upon both teacher and pupils. From the early morning hours the , school rooms were filled with busy workers, and by 1 o'clock the class rooms: had been converted Into verit able bowers of foliage and flowers by the willing and deft hands of the stu dents and their friends. The exercises were opened by an address delivered by Miss Wurrrn, after which the following program was ably rendered: Song, "America," by the school; recitation, "Brave Oak," Marion Lewis; recitation, Harry Flavel; song, "Hunting Song,1 primary department; recitation, "For est Song," Ralph Worsley; recitation "Planting the Apple Tree," Paul Trul linger; recitation, "How Brownies Wei come Spring," Prescott Wright; reclta tlon, "Arbor Day;" recitation, "Papa' Pet."

Not a small feature of the day's ex erclses . was the participation of Miss Mason's kindergarten en masse, the ' bright, animated faces of the little ones forming a most lovely setting to this picture of "Nature's Festival." COUNTY DEMOCRATS Meet and Name Delegates to the State Convention Yesterday. The local adherents of the grand old party of Jefferson and Jackson met at Fisher's hall yesterday morning and held their county convention for the purpose of appointing delegates to the state convention. Before they got down to business they smoked a great many sewer de bouquet cigars, until the air was blue, and Joined In the chorus, "What Shall the Harvest Be?" until they were hoarse. Then the trouble commenced. City Attorney Smith, Ben Young and other statesmen all rose at the same moment and nominated Dr. Liberty P. Mul llnlx (late of Washington, D. C), for temporary chairman. This remarkable concensus or consolidation of opinion palpably pleased the roseate doctor, and he blushed clear around to the arm holes of his vest. After he had been unanimously elected, and when he ,11 m lit the ripsk. his necktie was heard to click In a noisy and stentorlous man ner. The doctor brushed the tears away from his eyes, and in a voice that was momentarily warped with emotion he said he ."gave thanks for the unso licited honor tendered him; If the Democrats nominated good men there would be no telling what might happen In the next June election. Why, maybe we would get a Democratic congress man. The county needed more states men In Washington." He noticed this particularly In walking home, and he thought there was no better batch of Democrats anywhere than here In Clat sop county, There whs a yell of approval at these sentiments, for the doctor had, in his usual happy way started everything right by putting all the delegates In good humor. C. R. Thomson, O. Sovey, J. W. So- vey, J, W. Walker, C. Jlottom and John Miller were appointed a committee on credentials by the chairnuin. On permanent organization the fol lowing composed the committee: Her man Wise, John Hobson, F. W. Keen HenJ. Young and J. A. Mcintosh. Aftfr drawing up the order of bust. liens the election of delegates took place, and when the ballots were count ed It was found that the convention had paid a lusting debt of gratitude due Herman Wise for his successful ef forts In bringing the state convention to Astoria, by electing him an alter nate, i The following are the delegates elect ed: It. P. Mulllnlx, Hen Young, J. H Smith. A. Norburg, C. R. Thomson and Thos. Dealey., The following were elected as alter nates: H. Wise, Dr. Alfred Kinney, I. Bergman, N. C. Hllleary, John Hohson and Alex. Sutton. The chairman then appointed the fol lowing committee on platform: Geo. Noland, J. H. Smith. Dr. Alf. Kinney and J. W. Walker. The convention then adjourned, to meet on Monday, April 30, at 2 p. m. C, J, Curtis and several other good Republicans were present as Interested siiectator. slxlng up the kind of fight that would have to tie made. TEACHERS' INSTITUTE. There Is some talk of holding a coun ty teachers' institute In Astoria during the last week tn April, and the many friends of the kindergarten work will be pleased to know that they will nav n opportunity to hear at that time kindergarten talk by the superinten dent of the Oregon training school, Mrs, CeiMllne Dunlap, of Portland. years." That may Ix.- all right buck cast, but twenty years is almost a life time In the west. It's like waiting for a railroad. SUNDAY SERMONS. Some Sensible Suggestions to Married Women and Those Whci Expect To Be Married. LAUGHING BABIES TOO LONO. TO WAIT. The editor Of .an eastern paper. . t) ho evidently has plenty, of time on his bit mitt, gives the fullowlug advice: elm makes a nice tree tn about .twenty Do guard against Jealousy. It Is a green-eyed monster, seeing what does not exist, and impelling to dire rage and despair. Do try to like your husband's friends and relatives, and not set your face like a. Hint against those he wants to;' have about him. ' Do be willing to say frankly, "forgive me" if you have been in the wrong. It is a sweet, womanly thing to do, and tnly a weak, conceited person thinks It humiliating to admit a mistake. Do remember that man llveth not by bread alone, but by loving, apprecia tive, flattering words from the Hps of woman, and If they come not from you, your husband will seek them elsewhere. Do say, "I told you so," If you have to, but it will Irritate an angelic tem per and do away with the good effect of your superior Judgment. It Is a good deal to ask, but If possible do re frain from flaunting the red flag, "1 told you so." Do be neat and orderly, but don't carry these virtues to such an excess that your husband loses all his home comfort In his fear of soiling a carpet or making a "muss" with books and papers. Better, by far, the worst con fusion, than a sense of restraint and dismal order. j Do dress In accordance with your means. If a woman In moderate cir cumstances dresses like one of wealth, I It causes suspicions of her husband or herself, and means at best a pinched home and an unworthy ambition. Those whom you wish to Impress only luugh at your doubt. Do remember that the love kindled In the past cannot live on Itself, but must be dally, offered fresh Incense. t you were loved once because you were bright, comely and charming, you must be cared for again today because you are sweet, womanly and companion able, else will the flame burn low, and cold ashes take the place of sacred fire. Da try to keep the love that you have won, and be as pretty as you can for your husband. If your hair Is In "crimps'' tie a bright handkerchief or a lace veil over It, and always wear a collar and keep the buttons sewed on your dress, Nothing so offends a man's vanity and taste as personal slovenli ness In his wife. Do take some Interest In your hus band's likes and fancies. If he enjoys base or football, or even a horse race oijce In a while, don't tell him he Is boyish or frivolous, but take some pains to Inform yourself on these subjects and encourage him to talk to you about them,, and then he will spend his time with you and think what a bright wife he has won. Do realize that the happiness of mar ried life depends, In a great measure, upon little things. Patience, punctuali ty, a desire to please and be pleased; a little care to be pretty and companion able, do much to make husband nnd wife "congenial" and contented; while want of personal sweetness unci tidi ness, a hubit of fault finding, and a disposition to be ever behind time, have sundered many hearty and lives which Qod was supposed to have Joined together.. are loved by everybody. Good nature in children is rare, unless they are healthy. Those raised on the Gail Borden Ergle Brand Condensed Milk are compar ively free from sickness. This milk is so easily prepai i that improper feeding is inexcusable. On Top. MARSHALL'S TWINE Is conceded by all to be the best. It fishes better and wears better than any other twine used on the Columbia river. TRY IT AND BE CONVINCED SWEET MUSIC. The short concei t of Utsdnger's Band In front of The Aatorlan ofllce last evening was much appreciated by the whole staff. If what we heard Is a fair simple, the band Is certainly now pre oared to render some delightful music. WHO TOLD ASTORIA? How much Is leaven worth? How- fast docs Chicago? Who Is It Council muffs? And who laid Buffalo? Oh, whom does Syracuse? What- ad sight has Ruclne? Why throw that Little Rook? Who minted Bowling Oreen? A NEW WAY TO PUT IT. Who says an Astorlan woman can't get right mad? One of them, who lives up on the hill, told a neighbor the other day that If she should ever happen to put her finger In her ear she would have It mashed all to pieces by the cogs. 4 .If You Want Cannery and .Fishermen's Supplies, Call on EVOKE SilpORK & GO.
