UTO YOUR right" shouted an
usher as they entered the
huge arena of the Seventy
first Regiment Armory.
Warren led the way around the
sawdustcd ring, scanning the crowd
ed stands. The place was a-hutter
with tanning programs. for the air
was sitting from the mass OF people
and the glazing lights.
Two seats up there" Warren's
cane pointed to an empty space on
one OF the upper benches. Guess
that's the best we can do
The benefit amateur circus was only
for this one evening. and the seats
were merely tiers OF rough board
benches without backs.
Some stunt" muttered Warren, as
with dif1iclulty they scrambled up.
"Oh. tore my skirt" Helen
smoothed ruefully a nail-snagged
hounce
Look at that heavyweight" A pom
derous, Smartly-gowned woman, flush
ed and painting, was being helped up
to the perilous height - the topmost
bench. How the deuce's she going
to get up there?"
Il wonder where the Wilson's are?'
murmurcd Helen, glancing around at
the sea OF faces. What do they look
like
Hes tall and thin-wears glasses.
I've neveI<1een her. They're to meet
us in thHobby as we go out"
Mr.. Wilson was one of Warren's
clients, and his wife, who was on this
benefit committee, had sent them the
tickets. Though Warren loathed an
amateur entertainment, Helen had
felt it was policy for them to come.
"Oh, if only had some place to put
my feet as they hung achingly down
into space. Dear, that woman back of
me is resting hers on our bench-l
can feel them. Why couldn't u
mo, you DON'T! when Helen tried
timidly to rest one foot between two
women on the bench below. Keep
your feet where they belong"
Since she was not allowed a loot
rest, why should the woman back OF
her have that comfort? As she felt
the nudging foot against her white
gown. she glanced resentfully over
her shoulder.
The brass band in the balcony now
clashed into a lively air, and the per-
formers troopcd in for the opening
grand march around the ring.
They came in groups of fantastic
costumes-lndians. cowboys, clowns.
dancing girls and wild animals.
Each entry was loudly applauded.
"On, dear, lookl" cried Helen glee-
fully, as a huge black eanton-hannel
cat with a COW bell around its neck
came prancing by. "We ought to
have brought Pussy Purr-Mew!
Wouldn't she enjoy it,"
To this frivolous comment Warren
did not deign reply. But in spite OF
his snubbing. the circus atmosphere
brought out something OF the little
girl" spirit in Helen. Her interest in
any kind of pussy cat" even in this
giant flannel one, was instructive.
The committee had wisely alter
mated the amateur numbers with pro-
fessional talent, and to start the show
off well the first was professional
equc strian act-the inevitable docile
white horses with proudly bowed
necks ant. two dazzling ladies in gilt
tering tights.
Helen loved to watch the horses in
their patient. even lope around the
ring, while the artists performed on
their broad, steady backs.
The next number was group of
amateur tumblers. and Helen, less in
terested, became conscious of her
discomfort. her dangling feet and the

VTHHE P. f. o. Sisterhood, which is
holding a state convention in For
= est Groe, has a most interesting
history which is not widely known.
There are Ia chapters of the SisterhoOd
in Oregon and many delegates are at
tending the convention. The p. l.. o..
organization is the only one of its kind
in the United States, and is the largest
secret society in the world in which
only women are members. 1t was Or
ganized in 1869 by seven college girls
Of the Wesleyan university at Mount
Pleasant, Iowa, and for some years only
college graduates were eligible to mem
borship. This requirement has since
been eliminated, the conditions now be-
ing only those of general culture and
refinement. The organization busies
itself with social, literary and philan-
thropic pursuits, although its principal
activity is along educational lines. A
few years ago a scholarship loan fund
was established to help deserving girls
obtain college education, and up to
the present time approximately $4,000
has been loaned to students There
are Mt the present time about 10000
members Of the organization, with
chapters in 2S states -Four of the
chapters in Oregon are located in Port
