IDAHO FALLS.


The M. e. church was crowded last
Sunday evening to listen to DR.. Full.
kerson's lecture on Present Condi-
tons in China" Though the lecture
centered about missionary work in
China, it also gave some very inter-
esting yet startling facts concerning
the present political and social con-
ditions there. DR.. Fulkerson, by his
long residence in the east and
through acquaintance with the peo-
pie, is able to speak with authority.
China is now wide awake from her
long sleep of 1000 years. Under the
leadership of Japan, she with Korea
has adopted the motto: 1.-THE Orient
for Orientals." There are now 81
600 picked Chinese students, sent by
the government, studying in the
schools of Japan there are also 1000
Japanese occupying official positions
In China. Nor is this all. The Chi
nese have dismissed the German mil
itary officer who has been drilling the
Chinese army and called Japanese
to the post to teach them military
tactics. Thus China with her popula-
ton of over one-fourth of the inhab-
itants of the globe with Korea and
Japan will be mighty antagonist in
a few years in case of struggle be-
tween the white and yellow races.
The Pacific will be the scene of great
est activity the next hundred years.

FROM PORTLAND.

Dear Editor and Country Writers >
| find myself in Portland this week
and will send you some items from
this place.
Going through the building where
the Pacific Monthly Is printed we
found that 1t takes three carloads of
paper for each issue of that maya
zine. They have one piece Of machin-
cry that does the work of thirty
girls.
This gives one an idea of how ma
chine work is taking the place of
hand work everywhere. The weather
has been SO cool the past week
have worn cloak most of the time.
Portland is now building north
west toward the mouth OF the viii
lamette more than any other direc-
ton. Hazelwood Sellwood, Alberta
and other beautiful suburbs are
also building up very fast.
We took trip up the river to Sal
EN-. sixty miles from here, to the
cherry fair held there on the 16, II,
and 18th of July. Salem is on the
east side of the Willamette river.
Taking an electric car we crossed the
river at Wilsonville where the tim
Der was SO dense on either side of
the river 1t was almost like going in
a tunnel. A very high bridge about
400 feet In length spans the river
over which the cars 60 very slowly.
The wild white syringa growing
on every side through the timber was
full of bloom and looked very pretty.
Later In the season, however, the
odor from the bloom becomes SO

been out in the rain while coming

she was going to change her dress
at the hotel but she did not.
While we were waiting for the
