U. B. Missionary Society

The Woman's Missionary society of
the United Brethren church held its
annual business meeting March 5.
This society was organized seven years
ago. During this time it has given
$275 in voluntary offerings, most Of
which has been applied to missionary
interests in the five foreign fields in
which the, United Brethren church is
working. For four years it supported
native Chinese girl in school in Cam
ton.
The society is interested in home
missions as we'll as foreign, and part
of its contributions have gone to work
in Mexico, Montana and other pioneer
fields.
Much of the success of the society
has been due to the retiring president,
Mrs. S. E. Bartmess who has been the
efficient leader during the greater part
of the society's life.

HOW CAN HOOD RIVER VOTE NO?

After he reaches a comprehensive
understanding of the proposed So, Co.,
600 road bonding act, it is difficult to
understand why anyone at any point in
the state of Oregon should take radi-
cal stand against the measure. And
ii is inconceivable that a Hood River
citizen, who truly understands the i'm
ports of the measure, should oppose it..
We know that a number of Hood River
men have reserved an expression OF
their sentiment on the act. They are
frank to admit that they do not fully
comprehend it yet. That is proper
course. An intelligent vote on the
matter is all that is asked. But We
have heard of others who declare that
they will oppose it for the simple
reason that they are against any bond
ing bill.
We most urgently appeal to the eiti-
zens taking the last mentioned view
punt W fudhc d IiOiOusH ctuuy VI eHS
proposed Sc, 900, 600 bonding act. Study
the measure with an olen mind and do
not allow your prejudices to blind you.
The measure on which you will vote on
June 4 is far different from any bond
ing measure you have ever considered
in the state of Oregon. Don't jump
at conclusion on this bill and then
stick to your opinion just because
you've got good backbone.
We have not taken up considera-
tion of the bill in these paragraphs,
for you will find them fully discussed
in other columns of the paper. If you
happen to read this, turn to these
other columns and read what others
have to say on the measure. Learn
of the benefits Hood River county will
derive from the bill, and after the
citizens of Hood River county have
done this, we believe the vote cast in
favor of the bonding act will be prac-
tically unanimous.

Strike Threat Alarms Apple Men

Officials of the Apple Growers Asso-
citation, while they fear delays because
of the threatened strike, have been
given no definite information by rail-
way companies as to the impending
walkout of the railroad brotherhoods.
Local rail officials have received no no.
tice of possible freight embargo re.
sulting from the strike threat.
For the first time during the past
season local freight yards are now
overcrowded with refrigerator cars.
Eighty-four freezers were apportioned
the Apple Growers Association yester-
day. If the shipping organization lis
permitted to load out fruit unhampered
the local stocks of an approximate $50
carloads will be moved from storage
plants in the next 10 days.

Residents of Cascade avenue have
petitioned the city council to employ a
motor cycle cop to patrol that thor
oughfare and prevent motorists from
racing and travelling with their muffiers
open. Unlawful practices of motorists
on this street have become fairly in
tolerable. The noise of cannonading
exhausts has become nuisance. The
fast driving, especially when the cars
are moving down the grade toward the
city, is menace, 1t is not likely that
any of the violators of city ordinances
and state laws intend to indulge in a
criminal practice. They are merely
thoughtless, but it is time for city
authorities to take steps to prevent a
possible loss of life of some child.

not intend their action as an aid to

Fairgrounds in Parks.

That city could well boast of being
nearly ideal for residential purposes
could it be said that it provided a we'll
equipped playground within easy reach
of every home, says a playground ex-
pert. Primarily and fundamentally
the writer believes in a complete sepa-
ration of park and playground, but this
is impossible in any city called to
mind, through lack of suitable area for
play and this is more to be desired
than parks for mere breathing space.
The only reasonable solution then is
to have some equipment and convent
ences for play in every park unless
close by an official playground. Yet the
history of small parks where special
provision for juveniles has been made
plainly show that 1t has usually
brought spoliation and general untidi-
ness impossible to overcome except
when confined to well-defined areas
within protection of hedge, fence or
wall. And this should be provided in
the original plan of every park, or
later the park design will have to I'M
dergo changes to admit of this very
necessary provision for childhood's
happy play.

FMF TOWN
Helps
W IN ENGLAND PLANNED
Garden Cities Show What Can Be Ae-
compIished by Carefully Laying
Out Site Before Building.

In the garden cities of England, such
as Letchworth and Hampstead, the
site of the town was purchased by a
company and the town was laid out as
a whole with reservations for public
and semi-public buildings, parks, play
grounds and civic centers. The loca-
ton of factories, business houses and
stations was designated and the sites
Of the residences were carefully
planned.
The result has been highly gratifying
from every point of view. The con-
venience and comfort of the citizens
have been promoted, a high degree
Of beauty has been obtained and the
health of the communities has become
far famed.
When these garden cities are COM
pared with the towns that have grown
up without planning the value of town
planning becomes evident. In one the
needs of community life are recognized
and provided for In the other the COM
munity is ignored and each individual
is left to follow his own initiative. In
one a high measure of comfort is as
sured the individual by his taking the
proper place in the community; in the
other the individuals clash in their
efforts to promote self-interest, with
result that the few secure the desired
comforts at the expense and disad-
vantage of the many.

The collection of suits presented for
fall is really superb. Good taste domi-
mates them in styles and color and in
materials and trimming. They are
wonderfully tailored. Most Of the
new wool goods have a soft, velvety
finish, and certain fashionable colors
appear at their best in surfaces of this
kind, like tan. beige, castor, gray and
wine.
The quiet of the colors fashionable
for fall makes for all sorts of
clever eccentricities Of cut, and the
smartest tailors have taken advantage
of this opportunity to show how in
genious they can be. They think out

Flat tassels of crystal beads finish
the joints of drapery at the sides and

a band of brilliants about the hair, are
to be worn with this frock, and they
should be without ornament. The
scarf of tulle about the shoulders-not
