Beginnings Of Great Things.

On July &c, 1S47, the first electric
magnetic locomotive was exhibited and
operated. The exhibition was made
in the town hall of Dover, N. H., by its
inventor, Moses G. Farmer. 1t carried
several people, who were doubtless
the first passengers transported on a
railroad by electricity in the United
States. Farmer lectured upon the in
vention at various Eastern points,
after which he opened a telegraph Of
flee, where he devised the WE'LL 1own
fire alarm apparatus. AS early as 1850
Professor Farmer predicted, among
other results, the talking exactly as
we talk today by telephone, and he
also saw the feasibility of electric
traction by means of the storage bat
terry and trolley system now in use. He
also invented flying machine, but
his sudden death prevented his bring
ing it before the world.

Oregon, arriving at Clackamas bot

singular to relate, on the anniversary
of settlement in Illinois.
Mr.. Jockson, during the winter of
1844-45, heard of the magnificent
water power at the mouth of the Des
Chutes river (Tumwater) and with
the design to take this and to explore
the adjacent country, in March, 1845,
he made trip in which, having ar
rived at the hous of old Simon Plem-
ondon on Jolly Prairie," the latter
accompanied him as far as the Ne
waukum river, one of the continents
of the Chehalis.
Just after the 4th of July, accom-
panied by w. P. Dougherty, now pro-
bate judge of Pierce county, Major H.
A. G. Lee, speaker of the Oregon
house of representatives under the
provisional government, Messrs
Watt, Jacob Haldry and Stewart,
Squire Jackson left Oregon city in a
ship yawl belonging to John Camp
bell, for Puget Sound. They trav-
elled in this conveyance down the
Willamette and Columbia and up the
Cowlftz river to the site of Monticel-
10, where they procured a canoe and
proceeded to the old Cowlitz Land
ing.
They started on horses for the
Sound, but meeting with a mishap
were induced to abandon the trip
after reaching Marcel Birnier's. Lee,
who had been elected to the legisla-
ture, desired to return to be present
at the organization. Jackson, how
ever, was not satisfied and they finally
determined to go down the Chehalis
to Gray's Harbor and procured a
canoe and Indian crew for the pur-
pose.
They went as far as the forks Of
the Chehalis. when all of them but
jackson determined to return. Over
ruled, he returned with them and
made an examination of the country
in the vicinity of Cowlitz Farms and
took the claim on which he has since
lived, known as Highlands" and
situated about 10 miles from the old
Cowlitz Landing.
From this expedition he had set
out for his return to Oregon City for
his effects. as Simmons party ap-
peared and continued their journey
to Puget Sound. 1t need only be
stated that Jackson Immediately re-
turned, arriving early in October,
1S45, and at once commenced the
erection of his cabin, which was so
far completed that the Simmons
party, when en- route for their per-
manent settlement, visited him at his
domicile.

" EYES FOR The NAVY ="

Our navy is equipped for repelling
any civilized enemy, but against the
present enemy that attempts to sink
without warning and without trace,
there is need of a hundred thousand
more eyes, that is, binoculars, tele-
scopes and Eyeglasses.
AS more ships laden with soldiers
and provisions cross to Somewhere
in France" it becomes more neces-
sary to watch every square foot OF
the Atlantic, for if the sneaking sub
marine can be seen quickly enough
1t can be defeated.
The Navy needs those hundred
thousand eyes, but cannot buy them
for there are no stocks on hand. The
only place to get those glasses is
from loyal Americans who own them.
Here is your chance to enlist your
binoculars to help win this war.
If you have good glass, tag II
with your name and address, wrap IL
securely, put your name on the out
side of the package, and send it by
Parcel Post to Assistant Secretary
Roosevelt, United States Naval OBJ
servatory, Washington, D. C. If the
Navy can use your glass, you will re-
ceive a dollar for rental, and unless
it is destroyed you will receive it back
after the war is won, and it will
bear a history of what 1t has been
used for.
Wouldn't 1t be great to know that
your glass had helped to save ship
load of soldiers?
Enlist that glass now!

TO MAKE FIGHT FOR
BIRTH REGISTRATION
Women of State Want an
Act That Can Be En-
forced.

A very important matter is to be
brought before the legislature this
winter at Charleston in the effort
which will be made to get vital sta
tistics law with teeth in it enacted. A
year ago the following resolve was
passed and later re-endorsed by the
state Federation Of women's Clubs;
The West Virginia Federation
Of Women's CLUBS heartily en-
dorse the movement to establish
law In this and in other states to
provide for uniform registration
Of births and deaths, known as
'.The Model Law to provide ade-
ouate penalty for failure to COM
ply with the provisions OF such
law.
In simpler words-West Virginia
law on the matter Of registering births
and deaths is very poor, especially
births. Not long ago while Dr.. Hat
field was governor, law was passed
making such registration compulsory.
The only trouble with this law lay in
the fact that no provision was made
to enofrce it. AS a result births and
deaths are not registered in this state
except on such occasion as doctors
find it especially convenient. Many
births are never registered Not long
ago a number of mothers in this city
undertook to discover. whether or not
their chfldren's births were registered
and were much surprised to discover
they were not. Many parents believe
this is done as matter Of course and
never have occasion personally to in
vestigate. In some states doctors
make out a birth certificate which be-
comes the property of the parents inI-
mediately after the birth Of child.
\ The importance OF birth and death
registration may readily be under
stood. Very often property is lost
through Lack OF such certificate. Some
times the legality Of birth must be
ascertained by certificate. In new
child labor law which Is to be present
ed at the coming legislature, birth
certificate must be shown in order to
prevent a chiId's age from being mis-
represented In instances innumer-
able, both birth and death certificates
become necessity.
It's often exclaimed: 1--WE have tho
registration OF fine cattle and other
animals-is not the child as import
ant2 More and more Is the subject
becoming serious one to parents.
