speaker of the celebration.
"1 have never seen a place that dis
played a greater interest, a more
heartfelt absorption in w;r work,"
declared the speaker. "I am going to
take your chorus to i'ortland let them
-how how things are done."
Several patriotic numbers were given
by the Liberty Chorus, in training un
der the direction of Mrs. (.'. H. Sletton
to lead meetings of the Fourth Liberty
Loan campaign. This chorus lead in
the conimunity'singing. In addition to
Mrs. Sletton. the singers are: Mrs.

students of the city schools and high
school boys who are being trained in
military drill by R. V. Wright, head of
the school's new department of agricul
ture, were in line.
Mrs. Chas. H. Castner presided at the
meeting. Mrs. Alexander Thompson,
iiere visiting Mrs. Castner, delivered
a stirring address.
(From Oregon Voter)
Under the caption of "Ten Rules for
Foremen and Others," there is pub
lished an interesting and inspiring out
line for managing men. It is in a re
cent number of "Going Some," the
organ of the St. Johns shipyards of
the Grant Smith-Porter Ship Co. The
rules reflect the spirit and, we suspect,
the language of Eric V. llauser, the
head of the enterprise that in two suc
cessive months secured the honor
awards for wooden shipbuilding from
the Emergency Fleet Corporation in
competition with all other yards of the
entire j country. They are worth read
ing in full :
1 lie Fair.
Have no favorites and no scapegoats.
A foreman has to act as judge many
times every day, therefore he must be
just.
C 2 Make Few Promises and Keep
Them.
A foreman must be exact in this
particular. Sometimes a foreman for
gets that his job leiuirej a high stand
ard of truth and honor.
:i Don't Waste Anger. Use It.
Anger is the most valuable thing
and should not be used carelessly
Keep your most forceful language for
special occasions. Before a foreman
can control others successfully he must
control himself.
1 Always Hear the Other Side.
Never blame a worker until he has
been given a chance to give his point
I of view.
fi - Oon't Hold Spite. Forgive.
I When you have had to scold a work
I er, go to him later, in a friendly way.
1 here should always be blue sky and
sunshine after a storm,
fi- Never Show Discouragement.
Never let yourself be beaten,
foreman must have perseverance,
never t ay die.
7 Notice Good Work as Well as Bad.
Mingle praise and blame. Let. the
workers see that you can appreciate as
well as condemn.
S Watch for Aptitudes.
Take a keen human interest in your
workers. Notice them. Study them.
Put each one where he can do best.
it Be an Optimist.
Don't let vour worries and trouble?
deform you into a pessimist. Inspire
confidence. Put the "righto!" spirit
into the works. Say, "Come along,
men, all together !"
Id Take Full Share of the Blame.
This is the most difficult of all. It
is heroic. But the foreman who can
share both blame and praise with his
workers will have discovered the se
cret of managing his men.
Mr. Davids.. 11 had moved to the
valley three years befole he returned
to Illinois to ciaim his bride, 'lhey
made their first home on the West Side
about three nule.s fruiu the city, then
a sparsely settled community, and
there Mr. Davidson developed an orch
ard, the forerunner of the hundreds
of acres now bearing fruit.
Liter Mr. Davidson became inter
ested in the manufacture of apple box
es. In a modi st way he started a vin
egar and strawberry preserving plant,
he became interested 111 tile shipping
business, and while he was developing
one of the largest individual holdings
of Hood Liver apple lands, he at the
same time became one of the most
prominent of Northwestern shippers.
Mr. Davidson for many years operated
the Davidson Fruit Co. Later he be
came president of the North (Pacific
Fruit Distributors For the past sev
eral years he-has conducted offices in
New York 1 ill, where he has reprsent
td his oivnjnterests and sales organiz
ations of a number of Northwestern
districts in the Atlantic coast and ex
port trade.
Mrs. Davidson is prominent in civic
and socialjlife. Shejisja past president
of the Woman's club and for four
years was recording secretary of the
Oregon State Federation, the conven
tion of which she will attend this week
in Portland. Mrs. Davidson accom
panies her husband to New York city
each winter. Since the war began she
has taken a very prominent part in
work of providing comfort for soldiers.
While she was in New York she greet
ed hundreds of Oregon boys on the
way across, presented them with boxes
of home fruits and brought back mes
sages to loved ones. Mrs. Davidson is
one of the few Oregonians to receive a
letter carried by the new aerial post
established between Washington and
New York city. The letter, from the
Aerial League, was addressed to her
at St. Nicholas Apartments, New
York City. It bore the new lti cent
aerial stamp. The letter was forward
ed to her here.
Out of town guests here for the jub
ilee celebration were Miss Helen Dav
idson, who is teaching the departments
of domestic science at Wasco, Moro
and Kent high schools; Mrs. 1. N.
Miner, Mrs. Davidson's sister, and
husband and daughter, Miss Deborah,
of Portland; anil Mrs. Hose Shelley, of
Carson, Wash., an old neighbor of the
early orchard days.

Men Feel Tired, Too
While much is said about tired wom
en, it must be remembered that men
also pay the penalty of overwork.
When the kidneys are weak, inactive
or sluggish, when one feels tired out
and miserable, lacks energy and ambi
tion, Foley Kidney Pills are tonic and
strengthening. Wm. H.CIark, Spring
held, Ohio, writes: "1 found no relief
from kidney trouble until I discovered
Foley Kidney Pills. Now 1 am in Al
shape. " They act quickly and surely.
