Earlier Events OF the pax.

st. Louis, Mo-, Feb. 3.--On the last
leg of his "swing around the circle"
in behalf of national preparedness,
President Wilson reached here at 1904
a. m. today.
The national salute OF 81 guns roared
out from the Eighteenth street via
duet as the special pulled into the city,
and Wilson was greeted by commit
tee from the Business Mems League,
including Governor Major and ex.Gov-
ernor David R. Francis.
The president and his wife, in an
open automobile were escorted to the
Hotel Jefferson by mounted police and
Battery A of the state militia, while
secret service men and local detec-
tives rode ahead and behind. The streets
were not crowded apparently due to
bitter cold weather, but factory win
dows were jammed en- route with men
and women workers, who waved hear
ty welcome.
The president at 9 o'clock reached
the dining room where a preliminary
address to the Business Mems league
occurred.
Enthusiasm is Great.
The greeting accorded him through
out the middle west, eliminating in the
greatest enthusiasm thus far when he
spoke at Kansas City last night, has
convinced him that the nation, far from
being Indifferent to preparedness; is
behind him in his plans.
A thousand persons met him at the
train at Kansas City; 10000 packed
the streets en- route to his hotel; 800
iammed the hotel LOBBY while $4,000
were about the place while he took
dinner. Eighteen thousand filled the
Auditorium to capacity for his address
while police had to fight to keep clamor-
ing others from breaking their way in.
to the building.
The crowd which heard the executive
last night at Kansas City arose ia
heights of patriotism not yet reached
on the journey.
| "America" sounded out in mighty
chorus and cheers greeted the ad
dress.
I "I have come to ask you to stand
back of me in this task Of preserving
at once the peace and honor OF thi,
country" he declared. at the same time
expressing the view that 100000 for q
continental army could be raised in any
one state.
In the course Of his remarks, HI

after that | knew she had no busi-
ness in pictures. The girl who starts
out worrying about how hard she
will have to work is not the kind
that will ever get anywhere, for there
is work and lots of it between the
foot of the ladder and the top in the
motion picture profession.
And yet l believe there are girls,
and men too, who wish to get into
pictures because they believe it all
easy. How little they see of the real
studio life in the film after it is fin
ished for projection they cannot
know.
They see their heroine on the

Talks With Screen Struck Girls

deaver. II has very likely been re-
hearsed and then taken and retaken
until every one felt his patience worn
to a ragged edge.
Moreover, it may have been taken
under a blistering sun with glaring
white diffusers to make matters
worse. Or it may have been under
artificial lights that generate a suf-
locating heat and almost blind one
through the intensity of their rays,
At many days end does the actress
find herself completely tagged in
body and mind. Her eyes and head
will ache at almost bursting point.
1t is caused by the sun and the glare
and the maddening irritation of a
makeup that she must wear from
morning until the sun fails at night.
Nowhere does one need a better
stock of patience than in pictures. 1t
is very largely matter of details
that require the most tedious and
undivided application. Nothing
counts but the days work, and all
thought of personal convenience must
give way TO that.
If a girl is genuinely in love with
the profession and it is love that
concerns itself with results to be OBJ
tanned for the profession instead OF
with certain points of personal van
ity, she can very easily discount these
hardships. But if she is the kind to
worry about how hard the work is,
she should never hope for success in
motion pictures.

Thursday and Friday
Federation Doings
Thursday.

Thursday morning - Chautauqua
Park hall. Meeting called to order at
9:15 by President Marian B. Towne
of Phoenix. Patriotic song, "Star
Spangled Banner" by audience. Fol-
lowing business was conducted. APP
pointing of committee on bylaws,
by president: Mesdames Emma
Jack of Ashland, Carles, Buchanan
of Roseburg, French, c. L. Schieffe-
lin of Medford.
Report of the Women's State Con-
federation by Mrs. c. L. Scheiffelin
of Medford. Mrs. Scheiffelin spoke
of the first president, Mrs. Sarah
Evens, of the timidity of the women,
and of the wonderful growth and
progress made until their meeting
was held in the state house at the
state capital, and whom the governor
was proud to recognize as full-fledged
citizens. This address was very good,
and when the president offered it for
discussion it was ably handled by
Mrs. Gard of Ashland, Mrs. Clements
of Grants Pass, Miss Towne of Phoe-
nix and Mrs. Buchanan of Roseburg.
Mrs. C. B. Lamkin, chairman Of
the civic department, then took the
floor and read a carefully prepared
paper on New Ideas for Civic I'm
provement." She offered for inspec-
ton illustrations of the new and the
old way of doing things, especially
the way the milk was handled from
the COW to the baby, and showed the
sanitary improvement which has been
made. This was discussed from every
point by Mrs. Scheiffelin and Mrs.
Gard.
Reports and recommendations
were then given by Mrs. c. l.. Cleav-
niger of the legislative department,
Grants Pass.
Mrs. Courtney then led a discus
sion, "Shall Women Serve on Jur-
ies?" which was taken up by Mrs.
Clements and others and most won
derfully handled.
The address on juvenile work by
Mrs. V. II. Clements was one of the
best it has ever been our pleasure
to listen to. The subject was handled
carefully from every point, showing
what had been done, what is being
done, and what is to be done. 1t is
subject everyone should be inter-
ested in as the juveniles of today
must take our places as citizens to-
morrow. Mrs. Clements spoke of sex
hygiene, it being her opinion that
the school was no place to handle
that subject, as it is subject which
must be handled with care or great
danger will result. This address was
left for discussion and was taken up
by so many and discussed so fully
that it seems impossible that any
thing about it was left unsaid.
The textbook problem was then
taken up by Mrs. E. E. Gore of Med
ford. Mrs. Gore showed thorough
knowledge Of this subject. She spoke
of state publication, uniformity and
free textbooks. Cited the states
which have the free textbooks and
those which have not. Showed that
Oregon pays more for books than it
should. A geography which costs rs
cents in Indiana cost in Oregon $1.25,
a difference of so cents on one book.
The subject was discussed by Mrs.
Norris and Miss Towne.

by the president, the club adjourned

culled from this excellent address
and the recommendations which pre-
ceded it.

Miss Blanche Hicks then intro
duced Miss Marvin, state librarian,
who gave an address on "Children's s
Books" This address told how we
could have access to good books and
laid great stress on the influence
books have on anyone, especially
children. Miss Marvin told how the
state library was lending books to
the people in the country or isolated
/ districts. Miss Marvin submitted a
carefully prepared list of children's
books and told how we could secure
the loan Of them. 1t was splendid
address and one which everyone can
not but feel she has been benefited
by. The address was discussed by
Mrs. Gore, Mrs. Norris, Miss Towne
and Mrs. Rocho.
An address on school lunches by
Mrs. E. R. Seeley of Medford. Mrs.
Murray took up this subject for Mrs.

was discussed by Mrs. McMurth of
Portland in very scholarly manner.
Mrs. McMurth has been teacher and
spoke from actual experience and
was appreciated by all. Mrs. George
McMurth is the president of the
Mothers Congress and Parent-Teacher
Association and believes implicitly in
serving, not whole lunch, but one
hot dish-soup, chocolate or clam
chowder-and let the child bring the
main part from home. This subject
was discussed by Mrs. Murray and
Miss Towne.
Mrs. Usher, chairman of the de-
partment of education, gave a report
and recommendations
Chairmen of the different depart
ments reported the progress made
during the year and what had been
done for the betterment of the
schools, and all showed progress

both parent and pupil.
