Franklin Pierce was in the class of

Franklin Pierce's features seem appro-

Jonathan Cilley was evidently bright

To the Editor of the Press:
1t is the aim of the Associated Chari,
ties to do away with street begging.
Much has been accomplished in this di-
rection, but as there are still some indi-
viduals who go from door to door asking
help, we would caution the public, both
in the city and outskirts, against them.
One is woman who tells a pitiful
story of want and sickness, presents a
well worn and much soiled paper, and
asks for money. She has collected much
of late at the doors and in the cars, thus
enabling her to indulge in her confirmed
habit of liquor drinking.
The other asks for clothing and has Sc
cured many articles which might have
clothed some of our worthy poor.
If any persons receiving calls from
these, OF any other persons on like er
rands, will report the cases at No. City
Building, they will confer favor on the

The Woman's Christian Temperance
Union is the largest society of women
which has ever existed in the world. 1t
reaches out into 40 departments of work
and is organized all over the world. 1t
is in no way secret society. 1t seems
to have little I'red tape' in its make up,
and yet great deal of its success is due
to it's careful methods. 1t seeks to do
everything s'decently and in order. !"
Hence, to carry out its business meet
ings with fairness and without waste of
time, it recommends parliamentary
study and practice. By request of the
Portland Union the state president, who
has had great deal of practice in state
and national W. G. T. U. meetings for
the past II years, has consented to give
a parliamentary lesson at w. c. I. U.
headquarters, 513 Exchange street, at 8
o'clock on Friday afternoon. All women
interested in parliamentary practice,
whether members of the Union or not,
are cordially invited to be present.
