it may fulfil the greatest possibilities
Of a state organization, and be in effect
what the name signifies, a plan has
been suggested by the President, Mrs.
Nj. I. L. Hidden. and enthusiastically
endorsed 10y the members, whereby the
clubs field Of action may be greatly
extended
Briefly stated, the idea is to estab-
Iish auxiliary press clubs throughout
the state in every city and town where
there are women writer's living in a
sucltlienl number to warrant such ac-
tion. From inquiries made it appears
there is enough literary talent in Hood
River to constitute "a highly successful

the city could join forces with that OBJ
Ject in view.
OF all brain workers, writers need
the inspiration that comes through an
exchange of ideas with others of SINH

intellectual comradeship among its
members, which is truly helpful and
stimulating. Among the'many aGvant-

Official Said TO be NONRESIDENT.

That one of the county officials of
Hood River county maintains dwell
ing in Portland and spends most of
his time there, cannot be legally con-
sidered resident of the county, and
that the county court has grounds for
appointing his successor. is the opinion
of Attorney General Crawford given
in reply to letter received from w.
L. Hanson, county clerk of Hood River
county, says a dispatch from Salem to
the Portland journal. The letter did
not state what official was in question
but said he returned to the county only
about once a week to attend to his
Official duties. The attorney general
says a decision depends upon the Off
cials intentions, and that his dwelling
in Portland is prima facie, although
not conclusive evidence that he has
abandoned Hood River county.
