OF INTEREST TO .CONTROVERSY IS CHURCH PEOPLE Census Bureau Gives Fact Regarding Different Denominations WASHINGTON, l. U. Juns 15. Aceordiotf to tbe census bureau at ths present time there ere spproxl mately 32.9:10,445 communicants or members of all religious denomina tions In the United States. Of these tbe vailous Prutestaut seotJ furnish ?0, 2S 7. 7 4 2 and tbe Ho in an Cathnlio oburch 12,679,112. For purposes of cooiparit-on the burea'i divided the principal cities iuto (our clases, those toa'itiK a population of 30U,000 or more, coustitutiuu the first class those of Irotn UO.tVO to a0,000 the second class, 'hose from 60,1X0 to lOaOOO t e tb rd. and those from 26.000 to 50,000 toruilutf tbe foirth lass Of tbe Pro'eetaui areuate there were 1,478. 145 or 7.3 per rent In the first class cities 4j 7 pr cent in the second class, am) 7.4 per cent in tl.e third au'l fourth class combined, wble SO ti (mr cent nera found out nlde of the Ihtuv cities. Of Roman Catholics tbeie were 3, 375 453; or 27. U per cent lu tbe first olass cities; i.i per ceut in tbe se mud; 13 Der ceut in tbe third and fourth rlises combined and 47.8 per cent outside tbe principal cities. This shows that the number of members of tbe Rorcao Catholic church retorted in tbe cities of the -first class was more than double that of tbe Protestants reported, while oa'side of tbe principal cities tbe Bomber of Catholics reported was ooly about a third of toe number of Protestauts. Ouly two of the Pro testant churches reported a majority of their Ojembership in tbe principal dries, tbe Cburcb of Cbiiet Scien lists, 82.6 per ceut, and tbe Protes tants Kpicupal church, 51.2 percent, Of tbe tidal comber of coraauri rants reported for tbe largest' cities y all denominations, 6,307.529, or 60 iper cent, belonged to the Roman Catholic churcl, and 3,935,341, or 3.4 per cent, to Pntestant churches. The cities sbowlns tbe largest rroportions f Protestant commonicanta are Memphis, 84 1 per cent; Toledo, 70 percent; Washington, U.C 66.9 per cent; Kansas City, Mo. 66., per cent, ad Indianapolis, 62.1 per cent. Tbe oitiea showing tbe largest proportiona of Roman Catholics are Fall River, 4ti.5 per cent; San Franc iscc, 81.1 tei cent; New Orleans, 79. percent ' New York, 6.9 per cen ; Providence "75.5 per cent ; tit Louis, 69 percent Boston, 68 7 per cent ; Chicago, 68.2 rerceot;, and Philadelphia, SI. 8 per cent. la tbe five cities tbe proportion of communicant ' of population was: York 11 7 per cent; Chicago, 40. 7 oer ceut; Philadelphia, 38.8 per ent; Boston, 62.6 per cent, and St. Louie, 46.6 per cent. It is stated that in geueral, cities showing a laree Roman Catbclto population bare a feigber per centage of church mem bers than cities in which this body has small representation, la Fall -'River 86.5 per cent of tbe total num ber of member reported were Roman Catholics and the entire church mem bership represented 67.8 per cent Jf td population.

This flight of two aud cue-half bouts' duration was accomplished at o speed f 433-4' miles per hour. Cupt.

This is the first practical de monstration of tbe aeroplane for jroutlug purposed, in addition to it being a new world's record for cross country flying with two uieu in tbe machine.

The matter has been put before congress, aud the legielators called upon to solve the t'rotleiu of whether the government should purchase the his toric estate. The controversy re-calls the latrio tlo work of a certain body of Auieri-' can women, to w houi all credit is due, fi.r the rectorattou t.t the borne ar.d the penietuat ion f a spot hallowed I y his'Tric iiieuini u .

Alfss Ann Pamela Cuuninuhaui, iu aiitfu rated a movement to re-tu- the home a iii preserve tbe mansion a sbrioe for all patriotic American Miss Cunningham was joined n her rampaign by women all over tbe country. They organized tbe Mount Vernon Ladies Association, and hav ing impoituned Virginia unsuccess fully to purchase tbe estate. Finally tbe women raised a autlloient sum to pmcbase tba estate making up tbe money from contributions received here and there. John Washington, a representative of tbe family of tbe first presileot. deeded tbe .mansion aud tbe grounds to the association. After having accomplished all this, after rejuvenated tbe mansion and re stored It to precisely tbe -same way it looked in tbe time of. Washington, .be assolciatioo is now confronted with a movement to take tbe manaion away from its care and have the United States government mauage the estate. Tbe controversy came to tbe atten tion of congress through tbe filing ot a complaint by tbe Mount Vernon Anti Fee association, charging, that the women were conducting tbe shrine for pe3uniary gain. Representative Condrey (Republiuao,' Mo. ). has In troduced a bill providing for tbe pur- nnaae ol 'be estate by tbe govern That civilization is founded at tbe borne, all will agree. The sohool should te a real helper of the home. How can the sohool help I ho horns? Mow cau it help the home istaMish habits in the childrvu of systematic performance of home duties, so that tbey will he efficient and joyful home helpers. One way is for the school to take tutu account home Industrial work and honor it. It Is my convic tion, base i upon careful aud ooutio- ous observation., that the school cau ureatly increase tt.e interest the child will take in home industrial work by making it a subject of consideration ats-hu il. A teacher talked of saw tni:, it" i i h uri sewed. She talked of do rnninii, aud they wanted tu learn to iron neatly. She talked of work itig w it h tools, aud both girls aud boys made htrd-lioutes, kit", ami other thloKS of lot "rests. A school liar ' en was planned in a city, aud one of the boys wss employed to tdow tbe land. Seventy-H te cblMreu were watching fur him to come with tbe team. At lat be came driviug around the comer. He could mauage a team. Ue drove iuto the lot, an a hundred and Bfty eyes looked with admiration at the boy who could unhitch from tbe sled and hitch on to the plow, and then as be "man fasbiou" lines over one shoulder and under oae arm drove the big team around the field, all could feel tbe children admira tion for tbe boy who could do some thing worth while. 1 have seen girl who could make better t read or set a table nicely, get tbe real admiratioo of her schoolmates. Tbe school can make better home builders It can help by industrial work done In tbe scIkhjI, . but as that is already receiving consideration of tbe press and in a few schools, 1 shall not in this short article treat of it. The plan I bare in miud will cost no money, will take little school time, and can be pot Into operation in every Dart of the state at ouce It will create a demand for expert in struction later on. It is to give tbe school credit for industrial work done at Dome. Tbe mother and father are to be recosoized as teachers, and tbe school teacber put Into the posi- ment. W. H.

Thornton. fore tbe committee on libraries of tbe bouse to complain thai the present management of the estate was charg ing 2- cents admission to tbe grounds, in alleged violations cf tbe agreement with tbe Ofixinai trustees of the es tate, which provided when tbe trust fund reached 1100.000 there should be no admittance fee. He declared that tbey bad granted ooe steamship line a monopoly of the carrying of passengers by .water route. He as serted tbat tbe trust fund ia now far above 1100,000 and tbat tbe entrance fee keeps out penniless but patriotio citizens, while, tbe .boat company, which baa the monopoly of the trip by tbe Potomac, oharges an excessive price 60 cents for the round trip from Washington. Lowder declared tbat in 1907 Mount Vernon was visi ted by 160,000 people, all of whom paid 20 cents entrance fee, and bought (j",000 post (cards. He stated tbat tbe associatioun realized S15.000 on aouvenira alone. He wants tbe government to purchase tbe state and maintian it, keeping open bouses for all Americans. Miss Ann Pamela Cunningham, founder aod first re gent of the Mount Vernon Ladle's association in the union, who held that post from December 2, 18."! to June 1, 1871. in her farewell address said in part: "Ladies, tbe borne of Wahington is in your charge; see to it that you keep tbe borne of Wash ington. Let no irreverent hand change; no vandal band desecrate t with lingers of progress. Those who go to the home in which he lived and died, wish to see in what be lived aud died. Lct one spot in this grand country of ours be saved from change. Upon you rests tbe duty." A Ulio Invasion A coord ug to reports a scheme is ou foot to trsnsplant some bippopot ouii from tbe jungles of Africa to tbe swauips ot Louisiana. It 1b tbe theory that tbe hippos would clear tbe swamps and bayous of much noxious vegetation. At the same time the hippos, or at least tbe surplus stock, could be killed for the table puipusos. The hteak of the boppo is sid it to be tender, nourishing and palatable. It can be sold for two cents a pound. Whether that price is f. o. b. New Orleans or is au east African quotation is not disclaimed. Which ever it may be it is safe to say tbat the hippo invasion will not lesson tbe demand for alfal fa fed eastern Oregon beef. the teaober aod the parents will have much in common. Every borne has tbe equipment for indost.iial work and baa somebody who uses it with more or leaf skill. Tbs school has made so many de mands on tbe borne that the parents, have in some cases felt tbat all the time of toe child most be given to tbe school, but an important thing tnat the child needs along with tbe school work is established habits for home making, and these hibits can come o-ly from real borne making. What ooe does depends as moch upon habit aa upon knowledge. Tbe criti cism tbat is most ofteo made upon in dustiial work at school is that it is so different from tbejwork done at home, which after all is for htm and tbe home the most important thing in the world. Juvenile institutions find tbat they must be careful not to instutiou alize the child to tbe extent tbat he may not be contented in a real home. In my opinion it will be a great thing for the child to want to help his parents do the task tbat needs to be done and to want to do it in the best possible wav. Tbe reason that so many country boys are now the lead ing men of affairs ia because early in life they baa the responsibility of home thrust upon tbem. 1 am sure tbat tbe motto "Everybody Helps," is a good one. Rut one says, "How can it be brought about? How can the school give credit for tbe Industrial work done at borne?" This may be acoorn plisbbd by printed slips asking the homes to take account of the work tbat the child does at home under the instruction of the home, and explain ing that credit will be given this work on the school record. These slips must be prepared for children according to age so that the child will not be asked to do to much, for it must be clearly recognized that chil dren must have time for real play. Tbs required ' tasks must not be too arduous, yet tbey must be real tasks. They must not be tasks tbat will put extra work on parents except in tbe matter of instruction and observa tion. They may well call for the care of animals, and should include gar den work for both boys aud girls. Credit iu sohool tor home industrial work, with tbe parents consent, should count as much as any one study in school. Tu add interest to the work, ex hibitions should be gitfcu at stated times so tbat all may learo from each other and tbe best be the model of riendsof the various camlbWo for the Postofllces thn uuhoul the Stte and Lakevlew la not excepted, are considerably Interested In a let ter from Washinwtin to the Oetrolt Journal, written by Edward il.

The letter says in part : "PoHtmaMer Ceneral Frank II. Hitchcock has submitted to I'resldeut Taft for sanction the most far reach lug civil service plan ever conceived by a tSnveruiiient ollk-lal. President Taft has been asked to taae the nee essary preliminary action which will lift every second and third class Post- office iu the cnuutry nut of politics and establish it firmly ou the bants of civil service. In addition, Mr. Hitch cock has suggested o the President that all rout masters of first-class offices shall be retained in the service despite the rleas of tte politicians, provided, t'f course, that tbe officials are acceptable to the communities wbicb they serve, aod have proved to the Department that they have been falthrul to their work and have administered their offices In the In terest of economy.

Mr. Hitchcock dors oot think that promotions for merit should stop short of tbe chief office, whether the office be that of a metro polis or of a great city of lesser com mercial and popul-tive impoitance.

Tb School Fairs at Yamhill, Polk, Denton, Lane , Waaco and Crook counties, together with tbe school and borne industrial dona at Eugene , have convinced me most tboroogbly tbat these plans are prao tioable, and tbat school work and home work, school play and borne play, and love for parents and respsct for teacber and fellow-pupils can best be fostered by a more complete coop eration between school and horn that tbe whole child is taken into ac count at a'l times.
