our justly famous region.
The following are the paragraphs
clipped from the story of Mr.. Dunni-

district:
From White Salmon you look out
over the Columbia. up over the city OF
Hood River to beautiful, wide valley

APPEAL in BEHALF OF
DEPENDENT CHILDREN

Do not forget the little ones at the
Home of the Boys and Girls Ald
Society of Oregon in Portland tins
THANKSGIVING. The management Of
the institution appeals to ali persons
who are Interested in the welfare oi
dependent children of the State 10 give
literally this year. The WORK OF the
institution has very much Increased
during the past year. Many more
wards are under its care so Of course
the expenses of maintenance are M
creased in proportion. The average
number of children on hand last year
at the Receiving Home was sixty but
now it will exceed that number 10y at
least five each day. The little ones at
the Home have been sadly afflicted Tor
the three past three months with an
epidemic of scarlet fever, although the
cases we're light, yet, it was necessary
that the children be isolated Tor Two
months. The first of these cases were
cared for at the Contagious Hospital
but the last to the number OF fourteen
were taken care of in this institution.
This certainly was a great trouble and
expense to those in charge; however,
at this writing the home is entirely
| free from the disease and properly
fumigated and the good work is again
going on. During the past year recre-
alton sheds have been erected ON the
premises for the use of the Children in
the Home one for the girls and enc for
the boys playground. These sheds are
sixty by thirty feet with open sides
and contain rings, trapeze, horizontal
bars and teeters, also sand courts tol
the little ones. Another addition fol
the benefit of the children is the fitting
up of manual training room where
the BOYS are to be taught carpentry
This addition was made by Clackama'
county.
1t is the effort of the management L
care for cases of abuse and neglect Of
children throughout the state, espec
ialy outside of Multnomah county anC
the records will show that about four
fifths of the children coming through
the institution are from outside coun
ties, hence this society is an aid t,
J every county in the state and 1t Il
earnestly hoped that donations for it
benefit will be liberal this year. Tn

carrying all such donations free o

W. c. 7. U. Notes.

A very interesting and enthusiastic
session of the w. C. T. U. was held
last Thursday at the home of Mrs.
L. H. Higgins. The following com
mittee were appointed: medal contest,
Mrs. A. l.. Carmichael, supt., and Mrs.
Edgington asst. supt. scientific tenn
perance instruction, Mrs. Hartley and
Mrs. Huggins; Sunday School, Mrs.
Gill; mothers meetings, Mrs. Carson
and Mrs. Jones.
The subject of moving picture shows
was discussed by the members, stats
ties quoted revealed the fact that II
this country 100000 people visit the
moving picture theater daily. There
are $4,000 moving picture theaters
One hundred million are interested il
the business. Why. then, not make
this a great force for good? 1t II
urged by the society that inasmuch al
the moving picture is great powe
for good or evil, every parent, voter
taxpayer, and those who organize mu
nicipal movements should be intereste,
in knowing whether the youth is seeini
pictures that tend to stimulate them i
higher and better living, or to degrad
them. What are the children seeing?

Eczema, Psoriasis and other skin
troubles are caused by myriads OF
germs at work in the skim. Unless
these germs are promptly destroyed
thew rapidly multiply, gnawing their
way deep into the sensitive tissue

and what seemed a mere rash
may grow worse and develop into a

Tony Barrett, who came down the
other day from Kotsina. reports the
development WORK being done in that
section this season has shown up
some excellent ore bodies and that in
the near future the mines will be
numbered among the shippers.
On his own property, Mr.. Barrett
states that he encountered in his tun-
mel 10 feet of ore running about Is
per cent, but that he encountered
an intrusive dyke, through which
he is now engaged in tunneling, and
expects to pick up the ore body again
in a short distance.
Crawford and Ammon have been
doing a large amount of work on
their properties and their tunnel is
now in large body of ore running
from eight to 10 per cent.
E. F. Gray, of the Great Northern
Development company, has drawn the

The Alaska Steamship company
have abolished the captains table on

The reason for the new order of
things is to distribute the JOY and
contentment equally among all. In
the past the few who had the honor
of eating at the table with the cap
tain were usually gay and exultant,
while the others who sought this
great privilege were thrown into the
depths of misery and envy. But

| Washington, Aug. 4-"President
Taft will surely be re nominated and
it is my opinion that he will be re-
elected" said representative John
Dalzelle last evening.
Mr.. Dalzelle is one of the republic
cans in Congress who thoroughly
disapproves of the Presidents course
with respect to Canadian reciprocity.
He spoke against it, voted against it
and took no pains to conceal his
thoughts concerning it. But he does
not see in this any reason why he or
any other republican should not en-
| dorse and support President Taft's
administration as whole, even
though they might not approve of
some specific act.
81 am sure that conditions have
improved wonderfully within the past
| few weeks" continued Mr.. Dalzelle,
land this change has been favorable
| to the Presidents political future.
There is no concealing the fact that
the Presidents policy with respect to
reciprocity displeases great many
republicans who believe he had aban-
doned the principles of protection.
This was shown in the breaking of
party lines in the House and Senate.
| But during the past few weeks these
who did not approve of reciprocity
have evidenced an inclination to &C
cept the inevitable and show no re-
sentiment of it.
"There is a general understand
ing among the Republicans that the
President is determined to veto any
wool bill or any other bill that may
be passed at this session of congress
and this is very satisfactory to that
element that does not want tariff
tinkering now. Taken altogether,
there is better feeling which augure
well for Republican success and it is
my belief that President Taft will
succeed himself
