Excellent Program Enjoyed
By Those Present.
Chapter L of the P. E. O. Slater-
hood chose March 18th— sixth anni­
versary of Ita organization— for guest
day this year, when 50 or more ladles
wore entertained at the new bunga­
low home of Mrs. Thoe. L. Cummings
on Hancock street. Guests wore re­
ceived by Mrs. Wesley Boyes, sister
of Mrs. Cummings, and Mrs. Richard
M. Thurston, president L. It is to be
regretted that the home wee not
large enough to take In all t ie
friends of P. B. O. as well as the
close, personal friends of each indi­
vidual member of Newberg’s Chap­
ter.
Out-of-town guests Included Mrs.
H. 8. Logan of Tualatin, state presi­
dent of P. E. O . Mias Louisa Lee of
Albany, Oregon, mother o f Rev. Geo.
H. Lee, Mice Louisa Lee, daughter of
Rev. and'Mrs. Lee, who recently re­
turned to America after seven end a
half years In India as a missionary,
Mrs. Tbeo. Brouillette, mother of
Mrs. Cummings and Mrs. B o y «, Mrs.
W. J. Gill, a member of Chapter M.
and little M l « Marie Miller, the three
latter o f Portland.
Following the program delicious
refreshments were served by Mrs.
Cummings and several P. E. O. mem­
bers. after which Mrs. Wesley Boyes
gave her P. B. O. slaters and their
guests a pleasant surprise when she
appeared with e large white pyramid
cake, on which burned six small yel­
low candles. She announced to the
guests that L was celebrating her
sixth birthday.
Mrs. Logan was
asked to cut the cake, which was then
served by Mrs. C. R. Chapin, the
chapter's first president.

Little M i « Marie Miller, daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. C. R. Miller, end a pu­
pil of Abbie Whiteside, favored us
with * ’ A prelude” and ’’The Dream­
er,” both from Carnival Mignon by
Schubert. M in Marie la considered
one of Portland's very talented child
pianists.
Mrs. Georgia Babcock’s fine con­
tralto voice was heard to good ad­
vantage in "Danny Boy,” with Mine
Mabel Miller as her accompanist.
Mrs. Babcock chose as her second
nnumber ’ “ Mother Machree,” a very
appropriate selection, for the day fol­
lowing St. Patrick's.
Mrs. Paul Newmeyer. gifted sopra­
no, sang “ A Dream.” She was ac­
companied by Mrs. Richard Williams.
In response to e hearty encore Mrs.
Newmeyer also chose a fine old Irish
song, “ Along the Rocky Road to Dub­
lin,” playing her own accompani­
ment.
Then in turn Mrs. Richard W ill­
iams sang very sweetly, “ Sing, Sing,
Buds of Spring,” with Mrs. New­
meyer et the piano. On account of
throat trouble Mrs. Williams had to
decline responding to an encore.
Mrs. William Holland favored us
with e piano solo, “ The Rosary.”
Our state president, Mrs. H. S.xLo­
gan, read a paper, giving us e short
history of the birth and growth of P.
E. O., which follows:
On January 21, 1866, in Mt. Pleas­
ant, Iowa, seven college girls who had
gone through high school together
end who bed formed e friendship as
beautiful as it was rare, and which
went with them into their college
life, formed a secret society, naming
It P. E. O.
They elected officers, prepared a
constitution end administered the
oath; chose e gold star with the let­
ters P. E. O. in black as an emblem.
For a number of years the growth of
the order was slow, and not until
1883, in convention, was the Grand
Chapter of the P. E. O. Sisterhood
formed. Until this time P. E. O. was
confined to the state of Iowa, but in
1885 a Chapter wee organised in
York, Nebraska. From this on she
grew end enlarged her borders until
In 1889 there were chapters In the
statM of Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Mls-
bouri, Kansas, Nebraska, California
and the District of Columbia.
In 1892 was organised the Supreme
Grand Chapter as It now exiata, with
the exception of the name. It la now

THE SCHOOL
QUESTION AGAIN
C. W. Bradshaw Voices Sentement
Favoring New School District
West of Newberg.
Editor Graphic:
Solomon said "TTain up » child in
the way he should go and when he
is old he w ill not depart from it.”
The Catholic says ill substance “ Give
me the child until he is twelve years
old, and I care not what you do with
him after that.” One o f the poets
gives us the following thought:
Vice is a monster of so hideous a
mien
.
That to be hated needs bnt to be
seen;
But seen too oft, familiar with her
. face,
We first endure, then pity, then
embrace.
The song urging boys to stay on
the farm says;
The city has many attractions,
But think of its vices and sins;
When once in the Vortex o f fashion.
How soon our destruction begins.
Before discussing the relation of
the above quotations to the school
question, a few remarks concerning
the article in the Graphic o f March
17 on the above subject, may not be
out of place. This article was good
and to the point with hut few excep­
tions. It shows that we have some
grievancM. Among these is a poor
method of conveyance. Another is a
per capita cost of about $80.00 for
educating the children in the pro­
posed district when it should not be
over $50.00 'even with the present
high wages. A third is the fact that
large farming community with
about 33 families has no Civic Center
orepublic meeting place nearer than
Newberg.
Both factions agree on
these points. We all want the best
that can be secured, but where we

jfaee. Perhape you have noticed that
these impure thoughts are the ones
that are most firm ly fixed in our {
memories.
Do you realize that a
country school has much the advant­
age in avoiding these things?
Smaller numbers, and a freedom
from certain classes that flock to tho
city make much of the difference.
Why do so many parents with small
boys in the cltlM want to gst the
children away from there?
There
is only on«, answer as a rule. “ T h e
city is no place to raise up your
children” is what they w ill tell you.
Here is another quotation f r o «
the same magazine. “ Certain mental
pictures of objects) or incidents, per­
haps memories of the past, seeing
exposed legs or breasts, or other parts
of the body, looking at suggestive
pictures, listening to kn Impure story
or joke, reading literature o f a Vic­
ious character, • * • •, and various
other things w ill create thoughts
that may quickl? arouse the sex im­
pulse.” Do all these have jany bear­
ing on our public schools?
Ask
your doctor if such things are true.
If true, where the most chance for
them, in large or small, in city or
eouutry schools?
------
And we might go on and show
how the fashions Interfere with city
schools, how the wealthy or proud
set t ie pace which others must fol­
low to some extent whether able or
not. Then there are the ba4 aa-
BociatM chosen for life, perhaps,
thoee who later are to become the
prhstltutM, murderers, and criminals
o f every kind. It is true, unfor­
tunately, that the one-room school is
bad enough, hut multiply it by 10 or
15 and the proportions are serious.
Even the moet depraved of men do
not often want their children In had
company. In the country we can
choose our associations to a large ex­
tent. Can we do this so well in ^
large city school? And mode o f con­
veyance is lia b leV to be demoralized
In several of the ways just men­
tioned. Then, too, city associations
tend to draw the children to the city.
How can we keep the children on
I l f M M r s i M IIS SIS lis to li
up in the city especially during the
habit-forming period?
In conclusion, read again the
quotations at the beginning of this
article and see if it pays to take
chances that can be avoided. What
good is a mental or physical giant
who Is a moral pigmy. Our reform
schools, insane asylums, and pene-
tentiarles are a partial answer to
this question.
