WHO KJVOW8 OV A CMPPLEI)
CHILD?
County Superintendent S. E. Not
son has received an appeal from the
Oregon State Federation of- Women's
Clubs asking him to tell their hospi
tal committee about any crippled
children In this country who could be
aided by a state-wide organization
to furnish free medical treatment of
the most modern scientific kind in
all cases where the family income is
not sufflclent-for expensive consulta
tion with specialists.
The Federation, which includes a
hundred women's clubs in all parts
of the state, asks anyone who knows
of a little victim of an accident, of
spinal meningitis, of Infantile paraly
sis, of tuberculosis In the bones or
joints, or any other crippling cause,
to write the details of the case to
Mrs. Millie R. Trumbull, Secretary
Child Welfare Commission, 250
Third Street, Portland, Oregon.
The club women maintain that
these little cripples, besides being
the most pitiful of all cases of help
lessness, and besides being entirely
without organized assistance in con
trast with the great state institutions
which care for the deaf, the blind the
feeble-minded and even the delin
quent, are also the most curable if
treated in time, and the most able
when so treated to make good, strong
useful citizens instead of charges on
public charity all their lives.

NORTHMEN IN AMERICA.
Scandinavian Blood Mixes Freoly !n
Our Molting Pot.
SiaiHliiiiiviaii linnilijranu iu America
-nntiTes of Sweden, Norway mid Den
nisirk now number a million and a
quarter. Yet it is only sixty-four years
slme tliu first of these newcomers,
straggling in after the visit of their
Swedish nightingale, were known as
"Jenny Mud men."
Edward Aylsworth Iioss, in the Cen
tury, estimates thut, counting direct
Immigrants and their Immediate de
scendants. America now holds a quar
ter of all the Scandinavian blood iu
the world.
He quotes a Norwegian economist
who says Ids compatriots own in this
country property corresponding in val
ue to the entire national economy of
Norway.
Today two-fifths of the people of
Minnesota lire of Scandinavian strain,
northern Iowa and the Dakotas are
deeply tinged, but Washington and Or
egon have as much of the blood as the
Dakotas. Noisy industry has called
many northmen to Pittsburgh, but
four-fifths of our Norwegians were in
1900 still outside the cities, most of
them clinging to the soil.
Our Dunes are courteous, pleasure
loving, though moody, running to mod
eration in virtues as in vices. The
Swedes are mure polished than the
Norwegians, and have a notable love
of letters. The Norwegians bear the
stamp of a more primitive life, but
have more pride of nationality than the
Swedes and get into politics sooner.
SOUND UNDER WATER.
It May Be Uted In the Futurt to
Meaiura Ocean Depths,
Alexander Graham Bell, the Inventor,
told a class of young studcuts at Wash
ington recently about putting his head
under water and striking two stones
together beneath the surface.. "It
sounded as if a man were hammering
for all he was worth at my very ear."
Next he scut a boy a mile away to
strike the stones, and "the signals
came perfectly clear and distinct."
In these little facts, and the other
fact that, sound goes over 5,000 feet a
second through water to its 1,000 feet
through air, lay for somebody the germ
of the submarine bell signals used on
ships.
Now, Iu exploring the earth's sur
face as it lies under deep waters, a
great deal of time and labor Is expend
ed merely In ascertaining the depth.
"Why," asks Professor Bell, as re
ported in the National Geographic Mac-
nziue, "should we not send down a
sound Instead and listen for an echo
from the bottom?"' thus accomplish
ing in four seconds a work now taking
sometimes more than four hours.
Ab'U we should learn by the shorter
method' something of the nature of
tilings below. "A flat bottom should
yield a single sharp return, whereas an
undulating bottom should yield a mul
tiple echo, like that heard when you
Are a pistol among hills."
Stupidity and a Balloon,
The real cause of the destruction of
the Forlanlni airship Citta di Ml'.anc
is attributed by the London Engineer
to the stupidity of the country folk
who rushed to the spot at which the
airship descended to repair a leaky
valve. The soldiers who manned the
vessel could neither drive the crowd
back nor induce its members to stop
smoking. It was necessary to deflate
the balloon. As the great bag fell
over toward the crowd a series of ex
plosions took place, and in a few sec
onds a great blast of flame shot sky
ward. Thus perished a most success
ful dirigible airship, which had cost
about $80,000, the money being raised
by public subscription in Milan.
London Now Eats Flowers.
The most up to date hostesses now
provide not only the ordinary buffet or
hot supper for those who grace their
ballrooms mid reception rooms, but
vegetarian tables and nutriment for
the votaries of the latest craze flower
eating. At a recent ball In Belgrave
square supper consisted of a plate of
specially forced chrysanthemum petals
with n sauce piqunnte, a salad of lily
of the valley blooms with mayonnaise,
roses' a I'oi'iontale (arranged with a
delicious sirup) and violets in mur
iisi liino. The latter was really an In
novation and a trifle too strong for the
strict flower eater. London DiSpatch.
A Bellini Museum.
The city council of Catnnia, at the
foot of Mount Etna, Sicily, Is making
efforts to acquire for the sum of 12,000
lire a number of Bellini relics now
the property of a member of the Astoi
family to serve its n nucleus for a
Bellini museum. The municipality is
also endeavoring to get possession of
the composer's house, which is today
Inhabited by a tailor.
The Passing Years.
Richard Cleveland, son of Grover
Cleveland, Is one of the American
delegates to the International educa
tional conference at The Hague. Does
it make yon feel old? Some of us who
do not know we are very far advanc
ed in years can remember when Baby
Ruth was a national figure. And there
was no Richard Cleveland then. Hart
ford Times.
"Wake Up" by Telephone.
In London a man who wants to be
awakened at a certain time can call
np central on the telephone and leave
his number and the hour. At the pre
cise moment his telephone bell will
ring, and It will keep on ringing until
he answers. The charge for such a
call is 6 centa.
