TODAY'S BIRTHDAY SKETCH.

Viscountess Helmsley, who has been
nicknamed the health crusader of
English society, Is receiving congratu-
frank about her birthday as about
her splendid work, but congratula-
tions are none the less sincere.
1t is not a silly fad which Lady
Helmsley is working out, but rather
sweeping crusade which has for its
purpose the gosel of health. The
Viscountess is the leader and organ
izer Of the Woman's Imperial Health
Association of Great Britain. Her
caravan" which has already started
off to scatter this gospel broadcast
through England, has the endorse
ment of thousands of high born Eng
lish men and women and hundreds
Of the most prominent British physi-
clans. The purpose of the crusade
is to teach the poor and rich alike the
most modern method Of keeping well
and this method is included in Wis
countess Muriel's ten commandments
Of health, which are: Keep the win
dows open night and day; do not spit;
breathe through the nose by keeping
the mouth shut; drink pure water;
eat slowly, take well-cooked meals
and cultivate regular habits. Wear
loose clothing Of reasonable materi-
al; take regular open-air exercise In
sunshine. II possible; wash the whole

greater benefactor than the mill
enthropist who distributes aims am
ong the needy is the reformer-econo-
mist who seeks to readjust affairs
with a view to abolishing in part the
causes that bring on misery and dis
tress among the people.
Such a man as this was Tom I.
Johnson, the stormy Petrel" of
Cleveland, Ohio. who passed away
Monday. Johnson became a million
aire through engaging in the traction
business But instead of giving his
money away in the form of benefac-
tons as some other wealthy men have
done he devoted his life and his for
tune TO improving the economic con-
ditions of his fellow men. He made
a hard and consistent fight for mn
nlclpal ownership of traction lines in
cleveland and for three cent fares.
IN doing SO he incurred the bitter
opposition Of the traction interests
4'ushout the country But John
son fought on year after year and in
q large measure he was successful
The fight though depleted his fortune
and wrecked his health. So it nav
nc truthfully said that he sacrificed
himself for the sake of the PRINCIPLES
In which he believed.
Those who deride Tom johnson and
such men as he will say that he
worked for political effect. Perhaps
he did. Few men do anything with
out having some selfish object in
view. Carnegie and Rockefeller AZ,

to be rightfully theirs. His should be
the greater credit.

sTANFIELD STRAWBERRIES

The Stanfield Fruitgrowers' associ-
alton has purchased $4,000 strawberry
pants from Hood River people. They
are the Clark Seedless, the variety
that has made the Hood River straw
berry famous. 1t is the belief of the
settlers on the Furnish. project that
they have a good strawberry country
and that the $1,000 plants now arriv-
Ing will demonstrate this fact.
Certainly the settlers IN that Sec
ton have a right to believe strawber-
ries and other small fruits will do
well there. The climate and altitude
or the project favor growing such
fruits. Also they have the soil, the
water and good transportation facil-
itis. Aside from these things all
that is needed are people who will
work carefully and intelligently Tha,

YOU SHOULD BE THERE.

The Commercial club luncheon this
evening promises to be an occasion OF
even greater interest than the first
monthly affair held in March. With
c. c. Chapman, secretary Of the Port
land Commercial club, as a guest, and
with important subjects UP for con-
sideration every member of the club
should be in attendance. The inter
est in the work of the club is now
stronger than it has been in several
years and this interest should be
maintained until some positive results
are obtained. The club has some good
work underway at present. 1t is after
a new theatre and likewise a perma-
nent home for the club itself. II
looks now like both these improve
ments may be had. They will be
Forthcoming if only the right work is
done.
BE on hand tonight.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1911-04-12
GET BOTH OF THEM.

There are a great many people who
would regret it should the agitation
for Commercial club home inter-
fere in any way with the move for
a new theatre. But there is no rea-
son why there should be any conflict.
Both improvements are needed and
probably can be had this summer.
In the view of the East Oregonian,
Commercial club people should work
for both enterprises though it would
be proper to give the new theatre
iirst place upon the program. This
because the sentiment of the local
public demands that new playhouse
be provided before another theatri-
cal season arrives.
Get new theatre and then a club
house. There is no danger of doing
too much.

TURNING THE TABLES.

The bridegroom and his bride were
starting on their honeymoon. Just as
they had taken their seats in the train
one of the bridegroom's chums hast
lily came along to bid him good bye.
AS the young husbahl extended his
hand the friend snapped a handcuff
on his wrist. The groom had been ex-
pecting a trick of some kind and
before the practical joker could play
a similar trick on the bride. he found
the other handcuff snapped round his
own wrist. He was chained to the
happy bridegroom himself!
That's a good one against me,
Harry" he said. with a sickly smile,
but I shall have to ask you to come
to the door with me and get the key
for these things. A man on the plat
form has it,
Just then the guards whistle
sounded and the train started off. and
it made no stop for the next fifty
miles. Before that, however, the
guard, with the aid of a file, succeed
ed in separating the "prisoners."
The joker meanwhile had to pay
full fare both ways.-London Express.

OWED 1T ALL TO HAINES.

Bob Haines. actor is a graduate
Some years ago he was member of
James O'Neilrs company playing
Monte Cristo." Through him the
O'Neill company obtained a date at
Columbia university under the auspic-
es of the students. Everybody
knew Bob and therefore wanted to
see the show do well. They all got
out and sold tickets. Bob's fraternity
worked especially hard. The result
was that the company played to s1-50O
in one night.
The news spread around in the
atrical circles that the O'Neil COM
pany had played to $500 at Colum-
bia, and other companies began to
arrange their routes to get to the
town. Some Of them made long
jumps.
Last summer Haines visited Colum-
bit just to spend a week with old
friends. One night a man stopped
him on the street.
Say" the man said, were you the
fellow who got James O'Neill $500
here with the Monte Cristo COM
pany "
Yes" Haines replied. "Who are
you?"
MY name Is Burke" the man re-
piled. when | heard of that $500
/ jumped my East Lynne company
500 miles to get here. We played to
s32."
What are you doing here now?"
Haines asked.
I'm a truck gardener three miles
out. I couldn't get out of town. Now
I'm doing well-thanks to you

respect. The duties of these maids ere
to look out for the comfort of the wo-
