' 'Politic never adjourns," Mid; Klius Steaart, ruoly elected corrv ponding secretary of the Federation of Business ar.d Professional Women which rec-ntly held its first confer ence in Si. Louis. Mo. "Politc is the science of government, and not ire p u i 1 1 n g to make things come out as you wanl them. Women mu i align themselves with a party it they wish to accomplish anything really worth while; must study the funda mentals for which the party stands, and remember that there is always 'scrap' on, as life is a fight, in poli tics as etl as in everything else, and the fight begins in politics in the pri maries. Every woman who is a citi zen is mteiested in the fight and must I uil up her sieevo ai.d get to work. She cannot do as the child in tlit nursery rhyme is told to do, "Hang your clothes on a hickory limb and don't go near the water." "The sufiragists are out of their Job-or neariy," continued Miss Stew art. "The W-. C. T. U. is out of its job. The job of citizenship is now the job of every woman. The ecou oniic side, the political s.de, the per sonal s.de all must be studied in the cititenship problem." Besides the new honor just be stowed upon her by the business and professional women, Miss Stewart is the executive secretary of the Repub lican Congressional Committee. .

One of the big events that comes out of "Buyers' Week" is the reunion of the retail merchants of Oregon In one state or ganization. This "get-together" movement, which was inaugurated last May, was carried to a complete and final success in the closing ses sion of the Fifteenth annual conven-( tion of the Oregon Retail Merchams' Association, held in the green room of the Chamber of Commerce on Thursday afternoon. This ends a fight that has lasted for four and a half years and which resulted in the existence of two state organizations of retail merchants, both nominally serving the same ends I and actually in competition with each other in seeking the interest and sup port of the retailers of the state and their local organizations. "This is the brightest day for the retail merchants of Oregon that we have had in five years," said Q. Clif ford Barlow, of Warrenton, who is .resident of the Oregon Retail Mer chants' Association. "With our forces divided into two camps and each do- ing its best to surpass thfe other, too much energy was lost in competitive effort and too little' was directed toward serving the real interests of the merchants of the state. . "Now that it Is all over, we need make no bones about it, for from now on the forces of (he two organizations united into one will be able t work with new spirit and double effect in accomplishing all those things which should be accomplished in the inter terest of clean business methods and, therefore, largely in the interest of the public as well as the merchants ;hemselves." This "get-together" movement was naugurated in May when the board of directors of the Oregon Retail Merchants' Association authorized President Barlow to appoint a com mittee of three to confer with a simi lar committee from the Oregon State Retailers' Association on whether the two organizations could be made into one and if so, how. This joint committee wrestled with the problem with evident success, for they made a report outlining a com plete plan and program for the union of the two bodies. This report was formally approved by the board of directors of the Oregon State Retail ers' Association and that action was duly announced to the convention of l.e Oregon Retail Merchants' Asso ciation. Under the 'plan of the joint com mittee both organizations retain their separate identity until the Astoria convention in February, in which the members of both will join and perfect the ode state association. The only change of significance in the annual election of the Oregon Re tail Merchants" Association was the retirement of Leo. R. Merrick as sec retary, F. A. Rosenkrans, of Canby, being elected In his place, this result being due to Mr. Merrick' open op position to the consolidation move ment. Similar reasons we.ra, respon sible for the convention changing its official organ from the Oregon Retail ers Journal, published by Mr. Mer rick, to the Oregon Merchants' Maga jene, which is already the official or gan of the other state association. The. complete result of the annual election of the Oregon Retail Mer chants' Association is as follows: President: Q. Clifford Barlow, of Warrenton. First Vice-President: A. C. Mar sters, of Roseburg. Second Vice-President: A. Brund, of Cottage Grove. Third Vice-President: J. 0. Snod- grass, of La Grande. Treasurer: Thomas C. Watts, of Reuben. Directors: R.
