CHILD LABOR
To the Editor:
Every good mother and father is
concerned with how child labor is
regulated In Oregon. At present la
bor laws are enforced by a commis
sion of four devoted women and one
man. The total expense to the
state is less than $5,000 for each
two-year appropriation period.
These four women have at heart
the welfare of the child. They are:
Miss Pauline Kline of Corvallis,
Mrs. Millie R. Trumbull of Portland,
Mrs. Turner Oliver of La Grande,
and Mrs. Sarah A. Evans of Port
land. Mrs. Trumbull is secretary of
the board and the only paid execu
tive in charge of the work.
She is sensible and experienced,
a woman of judgement and courage.
Her work requires rare qualities of
tact, patience and firmness in deal
ing with rapacious employes - and
greedy parents who conspire to make
little children lie about their ages
so as to evade the law. She brings
to bear upon her work the experience
and training of years of social ser
vice, and that genuine affection for
children which places their wel
fare before all selfish considerations.
This work is now in Jeopardy, as
legislators propose to consolidate it
into one of the paid political boards,
where it would be administered as
a mere detail by state officers busy
with many other matters and con
cerned primarily with making poli
tical records for themselves. This
would be sacrificing the children's
welfare on the altar of political con
solidation.
I urge good mothers and fathers
to write to their members of the
Senate and House beseeching them
to consider the little children and
not let the politicians get control of
Oregon's child labor administration.

FOREST NOTES.
A rapid method of kiln-drying
eastern hemlock has been developed
at the Forest Products Laboratory
at Madison, Wisconsin, whereby ship
lap can be dried green from the saw
to shipping weight In forty-eight
hours. By this method two-Inch
plank can be dried to shipping
weight In six to eight days.
It is estimated that four-fifths of
the water available for irrigation and
domestic use in the state of Oregon
comes from the timber clad slopes
of the National Forests. The aver
age acre of National Forest Land in
the state sends to the Btreams slx
teenjtlmes as much , water as does
the average of land outside the For
est boundaries.
Fires burned twenty-five million
board feet of timber on the National
Forests of Oregon, Washington and
Alaska in 1916. The Forest Service
fought 1176 fires in this region dur
ing the year at an expense of $19,-000.
The plantings of the Oriental tim
ber bamboo in northern Florida and
Lousiana have grown to a height of
25 feet, and there is no longer any
question about their producing In
this country, good canes comparable
to those which they produce in China
and Japan. A quick method of their
propagation has been worked out so
that it will be now possible to set
out many small areas throughout the
South, from the Caroltnas to Cali
fornia whereever there is sufficient
moisture and the land is not too
high priced td admit of their cultivation.

BUICK DESIGN 1
BUICK VALVE-IN-HEAD POWER
The lightness of the Buick Valve-in lead motor and
not the enthusiasm of its salesmen has made the Buick
conspicuous for leadership.
This new four has a Buick Valve-in-Head motor (with
electric starter) which develops thirty-five horse power
on brake test and is so reliable for ruggtd service that no
eulogy is necessary among "men who know Buick."
Its lines are beautiful.. Finish and color are exception
al. Deep, tufted black genuine leather upholstery. Cov
ered floor and running board, with aluminum bindings,
give a trimness of appearance that is peculiarly Buick.
Body,- hood, fevers and running gear are painted a
glossy, long-wrring black; wheels are black with white
stripes. Tires 31x4 inches.
