What the Girl
Scouts Are Doing
how to do theae things skilfully and
Independently.
The next thing you wish for the
American girl la that she might have
some sane, 'practical (and Interesting
don't forget that) preparation for
the home. The Girl Scout troop sup
plies her with Jolly chums of her own
age In working out this preparation.
It supplies the "gang spirit" and gives
her merit badges to show that aht
has useful knowledge. Can she get
this at home?
The next thing you want la a fair
and square sort of girl. Girl Scouts
teach It to each other, better than
It can be done by talking about It.
Teach play under the direction of
trained leaders is an unconscious
school for a life tn a grand democracy
that was never so much needed as
now.
The; can't do this all by them
selves. . Give Olrl Scouts a leader, a
council of Interested women to help
her out with advice, experience and
cooperation, and the financial back
ing of the town In which they live,
and they will do the rest. They have
the organization, training and camps,
centers in every state of the union.
They are growing faster and bigger
and bigger. They want to grow better
and better.

Mall Tribune bargain days .. are
proving so popular that already sub
scriptions are far In excess of what
they were during the same period a
Tr ago.
Although the bargain period opened
only last Saturday subscriptions In
both the new and renewal classifica
tions have been coming In with In
creasing volume and results thus far
are the best recorded In several years.
The Increase over a year ago today
stood close to 25 percent.
"The Increased volume of subscrip
tions Indicates two things," Oerald T.
Latham, circulation manager, ex
plained. "First, It shows that the 1
public recognises a real bargain and,
secondly, It reveals quite plainly that
general economic conditions have Im
proved very measurably. We expect
this year's results to be the best we
have registered In several years."
The Mall Tribune's bargain days
opened Saturday and will close Octo
ber 1. During this period the news
paper may be ordered for a year for
IS If delivery li to be made by carrier
and for $3.50 If delivery Is to be made
by mall In Jackson or Josephine
counties.
Present subscribers are eligible for
the bargain rates If they are paid up
to September 1 and of course all new
subscribers are entitled to the low
price.
Subscriptions may be left at the
office between the hours of A a. m.
and 6 p. m. dally and 8 a. m. and 9
p. m. Saturday. A trip to the office,
however, Is not necessary as a tele
phone call will bring a registered car
rier to your. home. The carrier will
deliver a receipt for each subscription.
News and feature services of the
Mall Tribune have recently been aug
mented and' Improved so that today
subscribers are receiving the same
klpd of newspaper that ordinarily can
be obtained only In the larger cities.
Bargain rates for the newspaper are
offered only once a year so that the
opportunity to subscribe at the great
ly reduced price will -not be available
again for another twelve months.

that of a lawyer. As a young man
Hopper prepared himself for this
work and even spent six months in
the office of the Illustrious lawyer,

liam DeWolf Hopper.
One of .his best known recita
tions was "Casey at the Bat," writ
ten by Ernest L. Thayer, which he
had given about 10,000 times tn
his vabrlent, booming voice. The
first recitation, before an audience
which Included baseball players, was
shortly after the poem appeared In
the San Francisco Examiner in
1886.
Hopper himself was a baseball
fan and watched the fortunes of
the New York Qlants closely.
Marital ventures of Mr. Hopper
attracted considerable attention. Be

and divorced twice. His first wile
was Ella Gardiner, a cousin, and
his second, Ida Mosher of Boston,
member of the chorus of the Mc
Caull Opera company.
