U. county executive meeting was held at the home of the county president, Mrs. J. E. Ferguson, Tuesday of last week. The county has r«-ently been organized. The plan of work for the coming year was discussed. County superintendents of the dlfferenent departments were ap- pointed as follows: Anti-narcotic, Mrs. Ed Hawk<>e; leg islation, Mrs. J. It. Niekelaen; flower mission, Mrs. Mals-1 laige; mothers’ meetings, Mrs. J. Edgington; official l«|s>rs, Mrs. J. Edgington; medical temperance, Mrs. Isaac Ford; erro- gellstlc, Mrs. A. F.

Plans were made to hold a county meeting at Rockford grange .Tuesday afternoon, August 18, The county or ganization will entertain the ladies of Parkdale, Dee and Mt. Hood as their guests. A program will Is- fur- ntabed county, lllver. After the businesa meeting the hostess served dainty refreshments. During the past 25 years vast changes have come to the world that eventually must help bring interna tional peace and sobriety. The first message sent by cable under the sen from England to America was thia : "Europe and America are united by telegraph. Glory to. God in the high est ; on earth peace, good-will toward men." Since, that day one electric marvel after another has been per fected—the telephone, the trolley, elec tric lighting, wireless telegraphy, and now af last the radio. The develop ment in the last 25 years of the pas senger and air-mail service, and the -broadcasting over land and sea by radio make us hopeful that the next time we gather in the land of Sir Walter Scott our delegates will come flying over land and sea, and all the stay-at-homes will "listen in” to the convention proceedings. These space and time-annihilating agencies are enormous factors for the uplift or the demoralization of the world. They should far more exten sively be subsidized by our organiza tion for all that ministers to the high est welfare of the home, the com munity, the state, the nation and the world. Gan the guidance of the auto mobile or the airship safely be en trusted to an alcohized brain? If not. our World's W. C. T. U. program of total abstinence education and the non-legalization of the sale of bever age alchohol should everywhere con stantly be stressed. The radio Is broadening our outlook; it is bringing nations nearer together. Radio mes sages are given to thousands of hear ers today where the public meeting reaches only score. Then, let us use this wonderful method of communica tion constructively; let us send out Into the illimitable spaces of the air our W. C. T. U. gospel for the welfare of the child, the protection of the home, the economic progress of in dustry and the healing of the nations Vancouver, Wash., la making prep- aratlona for the reception of ¿hou- sands of visitors during the week be ginning August 17 When II«- oldest city in the state of Washington will open the celebration of its centennial. It was in 1828 that Dr. John Mc- I-auglilln came to that place and, as chief factor of the Hudson's Bay company, established the trudiug post there which he called Fort Vancouver and from which he rulcsl the Oregon empire from California ou the south to tiie north pole and from the Paciiic ocean to the Rocky mountains. Under a special act of congress the minting of half dollar pieces com memorating the Vaucouver centennial is now under way and August 8 the flrst consignment is to "be shipped Cfoni the San Francisco mint. These coins have a proflie of Dr. John Mc Laughlin on one side and of old Fort Vancouver on the other side- and they are unique in that unlike- all other coin Issue's since the Columbian ex- p ee it le n—at C WMIB Un-.v bear tiie’ name of the- town at which tile cele bration is held thereon. The dirt-c tors of the centennial hate- ordered but a limited minting of this coin, and already have thousands of orders for these at one dollar each. The celebration, underwritten by Vancou ver caidtal, is hoping to meet a large l>art of its expenses through the sale of these coins. The celebration will consist of an industrial and automobile- exisisition. a large outdoor amusement park, a Iiageant with 310 persons and a chorus of 150 each night for the week is-ginning August 17, and a wonderful historical exhibit which has been prepared under the aus pices of Glenn M. Ranck. of that city, with the cooperation of the- Oregon Historical society and the Washing ton Historical society. Opening exercises, set for August 17. will attract notable is-rsous from the two staic-s and a big reception for that date has been planned. The governors of Washington and Oregon and the congressional delegations from the two states, with mayors of many of the cities, have ls-en'invited to participate in these exorcises.
