The interest arises from the

been exposed to the disease
though so far we have kept

At such a time as this the
one and only safe thing to do
Is follow the leader. The

been to danger. They know
what the situation is like with

 Mrs. Platt's Address.
 Mrs. Mary Schauffler Platt of New Britain, Conn.,, in her address on The Appeal of our Cosmopolitan Com munity" said that the nations heart lies in it's homes and that as America is being built up men, women and children from every nation the most urgent call to Christian women comes from the homes of the land. Mrs. Platt used as an illustration small city in Connecticut in which eighty per cent. of the population is either foreign or children of foreigners; 
 nationalities; and where thirty langu- ages are spoken in one public school. Her strong conviction was that of all crying needs that of the home was the greatest. In the first place there is the home in which the parents do no know English. Gradually the fam fly grows away from the mother. This leads to: Homes where children go wrong; homes with low physical standards; homes with low moral standards; homes where there is sick ness and misfortune.
 What can bring a change? A clearly defined program towards these homes. Mrs. Platt suggested this program: A proper sympathetic, wholesome state of mind in their homes towards less fortunate homes and their inmates; give alien neigh bors a chance to enter our homes to l see for themselves what @ Christian home is like; let us go into their 1 homes with loving sympathetic help ] fulness. It is the individual touch l of Christ-like lives and individual in- ] fuence of Christ-like homes that is
 going to change and uplift and bless

needy homes of our whole great cos mopolitan land.
 Miss Katherine Wells.
 Miss Katherine z. Wells spoke of the attitude of college girls towards questions of social welfare. She said that college girls indicate general in terest in the subject by extensive read ing; by discussions in weekly and bi- weekly meetings, and in debates, as shown recently upon such subjects as The Minimum Wage" and ''The Com mission Government" College girls, she declared, are fitting themselves for social service by taking courses in economics, sociology and political science. Field work is also extensive ly done. Personal work in the col lege neignborhood is common, and there is friendly visiting of aims houses, orphanages, hospitals, and in carrying on recreation clubs, local settlements and work among foreign CTS. Students frequently support these undertakings. Forth per cent. of women registering with the inter collegiate bureau of occupations for non-teaching positions during the year wished to do social work.
 J. Edward Kirbye.
 J. EQWdr0 or DeS M ones, Ia., spoke on At the Heart of the Coun- try'' saying that a few years ago committee of Englishmen visited this country to make observations concern ing the influence of the foreign popu- lation upon American ideals. He hap pened to be in London upon the com- mittee's return. Some of their ob- servations were published. He recalled that one said that he was disposed to question whether the United States was solving the problem in the great centers of the east. It was still question whether American ideals were winning in those centers. But in the middle west the observer felt that the heart of the country was still sound and that it was in a splendid way of making good.
 Rev MT. Newell.
 Rev. MT. Newell said that proper business methods have great effect upon all departments of church ac- tivity. A real revival of religion has often followed the raising of a debt. Mission money has been easily raised, and social work which no one thought the church capable of undertaking has frequently been carried forward suc- cessfully.
 Wherever there is debt the whole spiritual life of a church is crippled. There is no debt that cannot be re- moved with a careful plan adapted to local needs

In the case brought for the purpose
of restraining state and county officials
from putting into effect and enforcing
the state wide prohibition law passed
by the people at the last general cleo
ton. Judge D. F, Wright OF the super
ior court of Thurston county has de-
cided against the plaintiff, the Gott-
stein Liquor Company, Of Seattle, and
holds the law to be valid and constitu-
tional. The complainant in the case
attacked not only the prohibition law,
but the initiative and referendum
amendment to the constitution under
which the law was adopted, but Judge
Wright upholds the ruling of Attorney
Genera, w. V. Tanner that the law is
valid and constitutional. The case
will be appealed to the supreme court
and it is thought that the court will
decide the case at the October term,
as the law is to become effective on
the first OF January, 1916. There is,
however, some possibility that the case
may be taken up to the United States
supreme court.

the Wenatchee river. This variety Of

glaciers, The fish ladder thru the

better opportunity of getting up the
river. Mr.. Baldridge, superintendent
of the local fish hatchery, intends to
stretch net and hold part of the sal
mon for their spawn.
