Mar garet Sanger declared will be "a de cisive battle between the friends and enemies of birth control," is expected to begin when the little red headed,' fire eating birth control advocate who has preached her doctrine throughout the country and gone to jail therefor many times, comes to trial in special sessions court here today. The specific charge against Mrs. San ger is "maintaining a public nuisance"' in her Inrth control clinic in Brooklyn. This ease is the outcome of Mrs. Han ger's campaign to establish birth oon-j trol clinics 'first all over New York and later during 1!M7 in every large city; in the I'niteil States. The first time she was arrested after1 the clinic opened she fought the police and had to be carried to the patrol wag on.

A. Churchill. Begaiding this work Mr. Church ill saya: "The children's industrial club work. whi'-h is lieing promoted jointly by the slate department ot education, the Ore 1 gon Agricultural college and the federal government, in meeting with much sne . eeaa aad should be continued. In order I to stimi.lste interest on the part of the children and to induce them to take up this work, prizes are offered by the state, as well as by main of the coun ties aad local districts. The reports of the industrial field workers show that literally thousands of Oregon school children are busily engaged during their spare moments at howie in some one or more of the projects for which prizes are offered. The club projects are 14 in number and include corn growing. 1 potato growing, vegetable gardening. poultry raising, pig feeding, dairy herd record keepiug, seed , gain selection, fruit growing, baking, canning and pre serving, sewing, farm and home handi craft, rural home beautification and the agricultural club project. Most Counties Took Part, i "Last year more than half of the counties sent two boys and two girls, who won the capital prizes in their own counties, to the state fair at Salem. their traveling expenses being paid by their counties. The boys and girls who "4apital prizes at III" Hate f : i i r were sent last year to the Panama-Pacific In ternational exposition nt Sun Francisco, ami this year to the Oregon Agricultural college for a two weeks' summer course, with all expenses paid. All of the mon ey used to meet the expenses of these tripa was donated by public spirited men and women of Portland, who ap preciate the value of this work. The subscriptions have been so generous that in each o'f the last two years more funds were secured than were needed and the balance was returned to the donors. "While it is due that all of the boys who are industriously trying to excel in corn and potato growing, or pig feeding, will not win free trips to the stnte fair school camp, and only a few of the girls who have taken up sewing, baking or canning will go to the Oregon Agricul tural college Hummer school for two weeks with all expenses paid, yet these children who carry their projects through to a successful termination will be amply repaid, though they do not all win prizes nt the fairs. i College Co-operates. "Co-operating with the state depart ment of education, the Oregon Agricul tural college, through its various ex perts, prepares a number of bulletins for each project. As soon a8 a club is tunned the names of the childrtn enroll ed are sent to the extension department of the college so that the proper bulle tins may be mailed to the club mem bers. For example, all members of the potato growing clubs receive the fol lowing bulletins: (1) Potato section! and potato silos; (2) Potato pests and diseases; (3) Varieties of potatoes, se lection of seed; (4) Preparation of seed bed aud methods of planting: (5) Cul tivation and care of growing crop; (Hi Harvesting, hill selection of seed: (7) Selection of exhibition tubers, potato judging. "The L'nited States department of agriculture la the third co-operating agent in this work. That department assists in planning the work, sends a representative at least once a year to speak at public meetings held through out the state, and through the franking privilege makers it possible to mail the bulletins to the boys and girls. When one slops to think of the thousands of Oregon children who are enrolled in those clubs, one can realize how import ant it is to have the assistance of the federal government. On the other hand, the government is more thau repaid by the interest aroused in scientific farm ing and the actual increase in a higher grade of products. "The fundamental ebeet in this in dustrial work, like that of all our school work, is to help 'lit boys and girls for i-seful citizenship. With this end in view, we hope to establish early in life those sterling qualities of industry, hon eaty, perHeverance, self-reliance and thrift that make for success and hap piness. ' ' TODAY'S WAR MOVES Captures of large numrjeis of prison ers in western Moldavia aud around Koesani, reported in today's offieial German statement, indicates contin ued success in the rapid German oc cupation of all Rumania. Brail still resists the German pressure. Although reported within range of Gorman and Bulgarian cannon a oek ago, there have been no reports of bombardment of the city and appar ently the Teutonic forces are still hurling infantry masses at the bridge head of Mucin, opposite Braila ou the Bnuube. Today's Berlin statcmeut frankly admits the enemy still ''maintains'' the bridgehead between the Buzeu river and the Danube on the west of the city. The lack of any bombard ment report mav come through the fact that the German advance has been so rapid that heavy siege guns could not keep pace with tho infantry and cavalry. Though Braila still holds, the Ger man statement indicates the center of the German army is pot being held back. Today's statement mentions approach of Germanic forces "to the bridgehead positions near Fcesani presumably on the Putna river. Capture of 1300 prisoners in this section is also reported. Sofia reported capture of 1300 prisoners in the Dobrudja fighting against the .Mucin bridgeheads, guard intr Hraila trom the east. Farther to the north, in western Moldavia, German troops appear to be having success in the Trotus valley. The race is not always to the swift- eat even in x day races.

COFFEY LOSES CASE Suit Over Money Lost In Portland Bank Failure One Other Opinion In the ease ot the s'.ate of Oregon in iclation to Jnhn H. l otl'ev, ,erk of ilultnoniSh eotinty, against the Mult nomah county court, an action to com pel by mandamus proceedings the coun ty eourt to iasue h warrant paying 13,MM3 to the county clerk, the su preme court this morning decided that as there was no epress provision in the law passed in 191-j piwviding for the payment of the money to the coun ty ewrk aud as the money had not been (lace.l at his disposal, the demurrer raised against the sul'ticiency ot tho petition for a writ of mandamus should be sus'.ained. Juaiice Moore rendered the opinion, which was concurred in by Justices Hean, Harris and Hensen. F. S. Fields, formerly Multnomah eonnty elerl, received advance fees for causes that were to come bclore the courts in Multnomah county, which fees wore to bo repnid when the suits were de'eimined, mid placed the mon ey with the American Bank and Trust eonipany. which Tailed. Therefore he was unable to deliver the $15,528.48 to I of fey when he took office. By leg islative enactment the money has been raised by taxation to meet the loss ami it is now in the treasury of Multnomah county. Cor'tey states that be demand ed in writing that an order be passed by the court directing the issuance ot a warrant payable tor him. He says the court refused, ami ho asks a writ of iiiaiManius compelling it to issue the warrant or yive reason why it should not. A demurrer challenging tho suffic iency of the writ states that it does not give facts sufficient to authorize the relief demanded. The demurrer was argued December 8, lflltj. The opinion states that Clerk Coffey never was charged with the nwney lusi, and it is therefore difficult to see why he should be given credit for it. Tin law passed in VHB ,loes not specifical ly direct the issuance of the warrant or direct that the money be deposite I in twnks subject to check, and there fore he cannot be legally charged with it. The court further declares that no mandatory writ is necessary to compel the performance of a duty already dis charged. The demurrer is sustained, and the effect is practically that a new law will have to be enacted to cause the money to be pabl into the hands of the county clerk so that it can be re paid to claimants. The only other decision was rendered in the case of Outcault Advertising company, appellants, against John II. Brooks, appeal from Marion county; petiiion for a rehearing denied. Two Babies Used to Play Part of One Two babies were used to play the part of one baby In the new Triangle Fine Arts drama, "Fifty-Fifty," in which Koima Talmadge is the star. The baby of Naomi, the principal character, is first seen in the play at the age of two months, then there is o lapse of eight months before the in fant again figures in the story. Bather than run any risk of criticism the : director of the picture decided to use a baby oi the right age in each in stance. The second baby to appear was pos sessed of some reputation, even at its early age, before making its debut as a film player, as it had won the first prire in a babies' beauty contest held in the Bronx which comprises a large jarea of New York City shortly before the picture was made. Inasmuch as the scenes of a motion 'picture are not in chronological order, iMiss Talmadge had the time of her j life figuring out which baby to use in i i Prepare This tor a Bad Cough It's Fine Ckslr nnd Runny Made, but Doe the Work Quickly.
