The restroom" idea in Oska-
loosa originated with the .wo-
mans club of the place. A dele

council and secured an appropri.
alton and the attractive basement
rooms. 81 do not know the d.
vision of expense, writes Mrs.
Peattie, "but, between the club
and the council, the matron had
her wage, the place was heated,
supplied with literature, growing
plants, and clean linen, and not
only the farm women, but the
girls from the telephone office,
and the. stenographers from the
city offices, and the clerks from
the shops, had their place of
meeting. Here they could enjoy
that sociability which is needed
for the Christian digestion of a
meal and refresh themselves. The
pictures were reproductions of
masterpieces. The books were
good enough for the best to read.
The cradle was dainty enough
for anybOdy's baby. 1t gave me,
a sojourner, very friendly feel

but, what was much more to the
point, it warmed the cookies of
my heart. l fancy that the wo-

alize that they have, too little
connection with reality, often,
would be only too glad to have
such an honest, disinterested,
practical piece of work to do, if
only the idea occurred to them.
It's a piece of beneficence of a
distinctly feminine order. And

HYRUM, June 2J.-The Hy.
rum Stake quarterly conference
convened at Paradise June 22nd
and 23rd. OF presiding authori-
ties there were President Francis
NJ. Lyman of the quorum of
Apostles and Elder B. II. Roberts.
There was also a full attendance
of Stake and ward officers. All
the meetings were well attended
and all the wards of the stake
were represented. Excellent
singing was rendered by the
Paradise ward choir.
Pres. Lyman made the opening
remarks of the conference. He
told what was wanted in the re-
ports of bishops and other pre-
siding officers. Reports should
be brief and terse and contain
something new. He gave excel
lent instructions on the matter of
making reports at these confer
ercAe
At this session of the confer
ence seven bishops reported their
wards. According to these re-
ports the wards are in good con-
dition and are continually i'm
proving.
In the afternoon reports were
made of two other wards and
also Of some auxiliary organiza-
tons of the stake, and these are
doing a good work.
Pres. VIM. c. Parkinson gave
a general report Of the stake.
Elder B. II. Roberts occupied
the remainder of the time of this
session, and also a portion of the
time at both meetings on Sunday.
He said this Church has two
things to accomplish: First, To
proclaim the truth revealed by
our Father in heaven, and Sc
cond: To perfect the lives of
those, who have accepted the
truth. The subject of his dis
course was on the first of these
things the church has to accom-
plish. He spoke of the necessity
of our missionaries being prepar-
ed to apply the remedies the Cos
pei affords to the existing evils
in the world today. To a great
degree our Elders are not pre-
pared TO meet the requirements
of existing conditions. 1t is the
desire of the authorities of the
church to remedy this condition
among those who are called to
preach the gospel. The speaker
said, that in order to accomplish
this it has been decided to have
the Seventies quorums use Sun
day forenoon for their quorum
meetings and pursue an outlined
course of study adapted to the
requirements of a missionary.
During the conference the
Paradise bishopric was honora-
bly, released. Bishop Samuel

Last Saturday Leo Hansen was

The wheel and axle of Mr.. OF.

THE MISSIONARY
WOMEN MEET
Annual Meeting of the Board
Memories of Mother Castle
---0ther Business.


its regular monthly meeting yesterday
afternoon al 2:30 clock in the Iectur,
room Of Central Union church. L
was the last preceding the summer va
cation, and the annual meeting Of the
Congregational church, which begin,
on the 25th. The attendance was
quite large, unusual interest being
shown in the various reports which were
submitted. In addition to this, the
opening exercises were a memorial ser
vice for the late Mother Castle, one
Of the charter members and for years a
pillar of the Board
Mrs. D. scudder, president of the
Board, conducted the meeting.
The first hymn, with which the ser
vice began, How Firm q Founda-
ton 1t was announced. had always
been 4 favorite with Mrs. Castle. The
Scripture lesson, the thirteenth chapter
of I. Corinthians, was also one which
she especially valued, and which re-
fected the spirit Of her own long and
beautiful life.
Prayer was offered by Mrs. J. NJ.
Whitney, who expressed her gratitude
for the perfect example of Christian
character, the fully rounded life which,
the earthly existence completed, was
going on elsewhere In renewed strength
and beauty.
Miss Cross read most interesting
letter written by Mrs. Castle to her
sister concerning her voyage TO the
Sandwich Islands, and the influence
that Christian teaching and example
had had upon the rough sailors, captain
and officers of the ship in which they
had embarked. In this letter Mrs.
Castle expressed a consciousness OF her
own spiritual unworthiness, with faith
in Divine compassion, ready TO accept
and bless the humblest efforts to do
His will.
OTHER TESTIMONY.
Miss Coan spoke with much feeling
of her long association with Mother
Castle as q member of the Board-one
of the charter members, which she de-
fined as '*a1 who had had a hand IN
its organization. When they had hes
itated at assuming such a responsibility,
Mrs Castle had taken the position that
the only responsibility lay IN not tax
ing up the work, so that the organiza-
ton, from the beginning, was greatly
Influenced by her faith and courage.
She had a large family and had many
household cares, and her home was no
ted for its open-handed hospitality. But
she was always present at the meetings,
month after month, giving her counsel
and her personal support to all its M
1ertakings.
As treasurer of the II. c. T. Z. Miss
Coan paid an added tribute to Mrs.
Castle s memory, recalling the generous
gifts that came from her bountiful
hand She also paid a high tribute TO
ler as neighbor, personal knowledge
gained In six years Of close eompan-
onship, of kindly help, Of sympathy
md encouragement that were never
withheld. As a friend 10 Kawaiahao

Do you suppose that they send 10 the

lutely everything is imported from
Japan. Take this for an example. As
you know, rice is the japanese prin-
cipal food. Do you think that they
buy the America product which is
much cheaper? They import Il from
Japan. even though IL costs them
double or triple the price.
