NATIONAL FLOWER

KANSAS CITY, November 6.-The
National Federation of Women's
Clubs has decided that the United
States has gone too long without a ma
tional flower. So club women in all
parts of the country have been asked
to indorse the movement and sign a
petition asking Congress to pass an
act making the mountain laurel the
national flower.
When the movement has been in
dorsed by all the women's clubs, the
federation will appoint committee
of women to present the petition to
Congress and work for the passage of
the act.
The federation of women's clubs of
the second Kansas district, in session
in Kansas City, Kas., Endorsed the
movement and the delegates pledged
themselves to work for it among all
the club women of the state.
The mountain laurel is a small flow,
er containing the cred and white col
ors of the United States flag and un
folds in an almost perfect star. 1t can
be grown in all the states.

women in Colorado Professor Brooks
said he had studied the questions from
the standpoint of the suffragist and the
anti-suffragist, and had come to the
conclusion that nothing that could be
said of its good results would be too
dramatic to describe the benefits to
the people of that State. Colorado, he
stated, had justified itself, and the
proof was found in the fact that
throughout the State it was a common
saying of politicians that since women
voted they were compelled to be care
full of the kind of men nominated
Through women, with the ballot,
Professor Brooks expressed the belief
would come into the world an under
standing and sympathy that will
eventually apply the principle of the
Juvenile Court to the adult criminal.
Professor Brooks was followed by
Professor Thomas Reed, also of the
University of California, who spoke of
the Importance of the new voters, not
confusing personality with principle in
reaching conclusions with regard to
the choice of officials. Men, he said,
who became inebriated at a banquet
on one night, and appeared before a
political meeting on the next, to tell
how much their party had done for the
suppression of saloons, could hardly
be considered distinguished for prin-
ciple, and hence should not be chosen
for personality He told his audience
that California had proved unafraid to
try a new thing, and that women
should do their utmost to lift all
things out of the rut of conservatism,
even though it might be, for a time,
only to roll trackless on the top OF
the ground. At the conclusion of the
principal speeches of the afternoon,
two-minute talks were called for from
members, and the remainder of the
time was passed in brief illusions to
the work of the late campaign, and
the lessons learned in the working
from Mrs. Dane Coolidge, Mrs. Frank
Deering, Miss Blanche Morse, Mis-
Ethel Moore, Mrs. Louise Stebbins and
Mrs. Helen Hoy Greeley.

DOES NOT KNOW
HIS OWN MOTHER

EUGENE, Ore, Nov. 5.-Completely
at a loss to recall any of the events
of his life prior to a few months ago,
protesting that he is Charles Lewis,
logger, instead of Bernard Marvin,
a civil engineer, as his mother and
friends here know him to be, the son
OF Dr. Mrs. c. E. Lieburg, a physician
of Leaburg, twenty-five miles from
here, arrived at his mothers home a
few days ago presenting case of lost
identity or dual personality which is
puzzling alienists and local physi-
clans alike.
Young Marvin has been civil en-.
gineer and is a graduate of the Uni
versity of California. He had been
practicing his profession in Portland
and his mother supposed he was still
there. The first intimation that she
had to the contrary was when an un-
kempt, unshaven man in rough labor
ers clothes appealed to her for work.
She at once recognized him as her
son. She called his name, but he
looked bewildered and said that ne
was George Lewis, a logger.
you are Bernard Marvin, my boy,
and your father is dead" said DR..
Lieburg, who was present. The young
man remained obdurate. DR.. Lieburg
argued with him, but he finally be-
came angry and ran away. He was
seen a time or two in Springfield, but
disappeared before he could be de-
tanned
After some time officers got word
that he was in Vending, and here
they found him bucking lumber in
the yards of the Booth Kelly mill No
amount of questioning can arouse any
recollection in his mind. He denies
that he has ever been to college, de-
MES that he is a civil engineer, and
maintains firmly that he is a logger.
He said that he worked for a while at
Coos bay, had then come across to
Reseburg, up to Eugene, and had
gone up the Mckenzie river looking
for work.
Beyond a few months back the
mans memory is a blank. When
questioned about events occurring
before that time, he says that he can
not remember DR.. Lieburg has had
him examined by physicians here, but
they have found nothing to account
/ for his condition. The theory of the
young mans mother is that he had
sustained an injury to- his head in
some unknown manner. The case is
a strange parallel to that of S. Chand'
Ter Rogers, who has been in a Seattle
hospital for several weeks suffering
from a lapse Of memory.

ALBERTA

The city of Calgary owns its
street railway system, which, dur
ing the year 1910, netted the city
about SO, 900 in clear profits. The
city also owns it's water system,
and an electric lighting plant, and
is now planning an immense power
distribution plant to be owned and
operated by the city. The Prov
ince of Alberta, also in the govern
ment ownership ranks. last year
bought out the entire Bell tele-
phone system in the Province and
now operates it in the interest of
the whole people of the Province.
So the seed OF reform has already
been sown here, thanks to the
evangelism Of the Americans COM
ing across the border from the
western states.
It seems to be the determination
OF the people of this new and rap
idly developing Province to adopt
the entire Oregon plan" Of Direct
Legislation. They are tired Of the
Legislative farce at the Provincial
capital, and are in most recep-
tive state Of mind just now. The
program Of reform sounds good to
them, and the wheels are rolling
on toward complete political indie.
