tries, increase the payrolls, and put

Purpose of League.
To educate the people to use Oregon
made goods and the merchants to car
ry them, local chapter of the Oregon
Womens Home Industry League was
organized here yesterday by Edith To
zier-Wetherred, who met at the Board
of Trade with number of the patriot
ic women of the city.
In Joining the organization the wo-
men pledge themselves to make use
of goods that are manufactured at
home whenever it is possible to do so,
and to impress upon the minds of the
merchants that home products are
wanted, every housewife belonging to
the league will post in her kitchen a
card containing a list of home-manu-
factured articles, with the names Of
the merchants who sell them.
Marion County Leads.
The Home Industry leagues have
been in successful operation in Cali
fornia and Washington for some time
but the work is only beginning in Ore
gon, Marion county being the first
county in the state in which organiza-
tions have been effected. The move
here was inspired by the home manu-
factures campaign which has been
carried on during the spring and sum-
mer and which maintained an attrac-
tive exhibit at the last Cherry Fair.
The women's organization will serve
as an auxiliary in the work.
The organization of the league is
simple. There is no constitution or
bylaws to complicate matters, and no
treasurer is elected, because, as Mrs.
Wetherred says, the organization has
no money" She means that no dues
or subscriptions are required for
membership. Each woman who signs
is expected to show her loyalty to the
organization by living up to the reso-
lutions in her own household and con-
tributing a small portion Of her time
to the maintenance of the league If
asked to do 80.
Women Want Banquet.
Mrs. Wetherred will leave shortly
for another part of the state, but ex-
poets to return to Salem in about ten
days, After her return a general meet
ing to boost the organization will be
called which will not be confined to
women Also, the ladies are dropping
hints for the male home manufactures
enthusiasts to give them rousing
banquet in the near future, at which
time the understanding between the
consumers and the merchants will be
strengthened further.
Strong for CO-0peratiOn.
Mrs, Wetherred is strong for CO.
operation in the work in which she is
engaged and is a believer in thorough
publication Of the work, not only
through the press but by public dem
onstration. She even prefers that the
home preachers receive the religious
donations of the people to allowing an
itinerant evangelist to come into the
community and carry away the money
to some other part of the world. This
was evidenced recently in home in
dustry revival held in the Gypsy Smith
tabernacle In Tacoma. Mrs. Wether-
red said that If the spiritual care of
the city was going to be put into the
hands Of the wandering evangelist,
who would as consequence take
away with him considerable amount
of the city's money she would help to
offset this by a home industry revival
held in the same tabernacle. The wo-
men united their efforts, converted the
big tabernacle into an exhibit hall of
Washington-made articles and gave
one of the most successful demonstra-
tons Of what home talent and home
capital was capable of producing ever
staged in the northwest.
