THE ROSE SHOw-Tho spacious
rooms of the Woman club house
have been the past few days one of
the most attractive spots on earth,
under the prufuse display of beauti-
full roses arranged by the deft fingers
of ladies of the Civic Improvement
club. The display was made in the
large east room. on four tables run
ming the whole length of the room
on which the largest and finest spec
linens of old-time favorites as well
as the latest improved hybrid varie-
ties, were arranged, and the corners
of the room were decorated with a
tishnet floral and vine display for
booths in which choice candy and
ice-cream were sold. Competent
Judges who had just come from the
Portland rose-show, declared that it
surpassed this only in extent of dis
play and not in quality, and owns hav-
ing duplicated all the new and rare
qualities seen in the larger exhibit
At the evening exhibit an excellent
program OF instrumental and vocal
music was arranged. The list of
awards numbered over 80 and it is
with regret we are, from want of
space, unable to give it.

Socialist Meeting at Black Lake.

Saturday evening Misses Frances
and Eunlce Sylvester, G. V. Boone
and DR.. John Barnes went out to
Black Lake to organize a Socialist
local Miss Frances Sylvester ad-
dressed the gathering at the school,
briefly discussing the s-struggle
and existing economic conditions.
The gifted lady's remarks were
properly appreciated by an audience
consisting OF about seventy persons.
Mr.. Boone spoke for over an hour,
on the Bible in connection with the
land question and the doctrine of the
surplus values created by laborers
that did not receive. He was point
ed in his statements about the scrip
tural quotations as to land monopoly
and interest Mr. Finn. an aged G.
A. r. veteran. did not seem to like
some of Mr.. Boones observations
about dividing up the land; thought
there ought to be private property
in the soil; if it were divided up it
would soon return to former owners.
Col. lid Brown and his crowd were
on hand to enjoy and appreciate the
occasion, which reminded them of
the enthusiasm that prevailed in
Populist times. a local was organ
lied consisting of about seventeen
members. The visitors returned
home shortly before midnight con-
siderably fatigued but with hopes
! buOyant.

to let Canada ship in her lumber and

with apologies to AesopD

SOME OF the residents of the East

that locality ought to take special
interest in the progress and out
come Of the Mallory mandamus case
against the city in which action is
sought to compel the city to made a
levy to pay the NJ allory claim under
the pretext the Nozzle creek CUTLER
is a trunk sewer. Isn't that won
derful? What queer name for it.
Evidently some of our city officials
are trying to formulate new die
tionary in order to constitute a
legal basis for the assessment. Ca n
they do it? Let US wait and see. 1t
may be that the reason why The city
has had so much trouble with this
waterway is on account of its double
headed TEXTURES. Waterways and
sewers do not mix very well, the
stencil connected with the combina-
tiOn is offensive, but where will the
property owners get off at?

]T MAY BE. As noted in d recent
issue ii the STANDARD, our Supreme
Court decided in the Guye estate mat
ter, Interpreting the State with re-
ference to nOn-entervention wills.
that the estate must be administered
according to the terms Of the instru
mcnt, except wherein the law pro
vides otherwise. and the estate can
not be administered in the ordinary
way. All allowance must be made
by the executor under the nOn-inter-
vention will, court orders made in
that behalf are void, considering in
the same light as trustee suing him
self without adverse parties. 1t will
doubtless save the courts much time
in making allowances for attorney 5
fees, widows portions. etc. leaving
the benefciaries of the estate who
may feel aggrieved, to bring an Or
iginal action for an accounting and
the marshaling of the assets and
property for settlement and dis
tribution of the estate.

DR.. J. Elliott, in his report to the
organization for child-study, says his
observation teaches that that many
children of the larger cities. specially
in New York, give cause for belief
that they are lacking in that dis
cipline which makes children think,
which sets them TO reasoning out the
why's and wherefores of things for
themselves. Ill-hred children are
everywhere in New York, but pub
lie schools hold more of them than
any other place. AS for the public
schools, children do not learn much
in them. The home itself is the best
training, even to children, and here
the offspring of the poor have an
advantage over the offspring of the
rich. They have more responsible
ity; they feel that they have a part
in the family interests. They have
to work to help along, and though
this is bad thing if it goes too far
a certain degree of it affords an edu
cation which the poor children o.
the rich do not get.

Mr.. Property Owner, are you not

more of the expenses incident to

greater prudence and caution. Can

rupting its citizens? The mere state
ment of the question affords a suf-
ficient answer.

How TIE PoTATO FoUGHT FOR REC
oGNITIoN. The potato, although in
troduced into England by Sir Walter
Raleigh in 1884, was for many years
little cultivated or appreciated. In
King James Is time it sold for two
shilings per hundred and it did not
come into general use in many parts
of the country until the end of the
eighteenth century. The Mortimer
" Gardeners Kalendar," published
in 1908, describes potatoes as being
very like Jerusalem artichokes, al
though not SO good, and adds they
may possibly prove useful for swine.
And in Scotland, religious writers
exhOrted their readers to eschew the
potato because it was not mentioned
in the Bible.
