A matter of distinct pride to Ore
gonians and of surprising interest to
nature lovers in general viii be the
little volume of nature studies for chill
dren entitled 'sFairyland Around Us,"
written by Miss Opal Whiteley,
sophomore at the University Of Oregon
last year, and known througout the
state as a nature student. Miss White
Hey, who has been doing research work
in California since last spring has fl
nanced the work by her own efforts
and is the publisher and eireulator.
The volume has'300 pages, containing
49S illustrations, SIC of then in natur-
al eolors. The work will b. off the
press soon.
Miss Whitley is now in Los Anse-
les. She claims a host of friends in
Oregon among the eager-eyed, question
i ing children whom she has come into
contact with, when delivering her ma
ture lectures and as superintendent OF
the Junior Endeavor for two and a
half years.
Miss Whiteley has been doing ma
ture work ever since she was a small
child. She was in the fields and woods
much Of the time and early showed
her natural bent in the writing of ma
ture stories. She told many Of these
sketches to the children of the lumber
camps, whose eyes were opened to the
miracles in the world about them.
One of her delights is a collection
Of 10000 specimens of rocks, minerals,
fossils, flowers, ferns, moths, birds,
and seashells. She gathered 1900 Of
these specimens herself, the remainder
were sent her by people all over the
United States.
In an extremely laudatory forewerd
to Miss Whiteley's book, DR.. Starr
David Jordan of Stanford university
says:
ssIt is an effort to give our boys
and girls a right start in the joys OF
life. 1t opens their eyes to the charms
and glories shown all around them.
Miss Whiteley understands children,
their needs, their principal interests,
their joys and sorrows, and she has an
infinite sympathy in seeing what Is
going on in their young minds. Every
where she radiates joy and this buoy
ancy in her disposition has occasioned
her name of Sunshine Fairy, by
which she is known to children and
their parents in small and large towns
ON the coast"
Salem acquaintanees will regret 10
hear that Lieutenant Harold Grady OF
Portland, who conducted several dane
ing classes in Salem a few winters ago
is now seriously i'll in military camp
in California. His parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
H. G. Grady, of La Grande have gone
to California TO be with him.
Senator and Mrs. M. d. Shanks and
small daughter, Claire, of Condor, Ore
gon are in Salem for the present ses-

unusual beauty and strength OF his
fine baritone voice attracted attention
and he became favorite concert and
church choir soloist. Then he decided
to adopt a. professional music career.
/ Successfully, Mr.. Whip was bari
tone soloist in the choirs of Trinity
Episcopal, the Third Church of Christ
Scientist, the First Baptist, and First
Methodist Episcopal churches. He was
one of the promoters and first provfs-
ional president of the Portland Opera
association, and scored vocal successes
in that home opera concern in "Aida p"
and era Diavolo. "
Mr.. Whipp was man Of strong De-
liefs and friendships. He made many
acquaintance, and few intimate
friends, and kept. them. He was kind
hearted, fine hammered, dignified and
courteous in behavior and was especial
ly interested in children. According to
some critics, had he lived to middle
age. he would have won greater con-
cert celebrity than Bispham or Myron
Whitney.

DR.. LLOYD /. MOTT
WRITES FROM FRANCE
Tells OF Surgical Work And
The Bravery Of American
Wounded Soldiers.

DR.. Lloyd II. Mott, son of DR.. VIM. >.
Mott. is now in France with the rank
off captain in the medical corps. Writ
ing to his father he gives some Of has
experiences as follows:
"My billet is with the village priest,
little white haired old man with a
black gown and funny hat which an
of them wear. This padre, who could
not speak English, had sense OF hum
Or far above the average and wnlc n
was very apparent during our several
conversations.
ssI saw conversations because that
was what they were, in spite of the
fact that he could not speak Englisn
and I could not speak French. But we
talked lust the same and every once
in n while after terrible effort mu-
tual thought would get loose between
us and we both felt that the time ana
effort had been well spent.
uHe and his household were very
eondderate always and the best they
had was none too good for me. Inc
following Sunday he delivered ser
mon on patriotism, and ON the thrlfe,
spirit and admirable qualities OF the
American soldiers, urging the members
of his parish to take them as an ex-
amule and by cooperation, help she
good cause along.
"He then delivered personal eul-
oov in nv behalf and gave me some
reputation to live up to, Ny civlilah

most Of the work except the bearing

"In this part Of France there i

slowly, but which allows a child the use of it, free of charge. This fund appeals to all and it ought not to be q very long time before the amount is sufficient to maintain such bed every day in the year. Strong toys and at tractiVc playthings arc still needed at all times, for constant use wears them out or they become broken, and the stock needs to be replenished. The laundry, as always, is inadequate for the work to be done there. Nothing short of a new one well equipped will ill the bill. Considering the amount of work, it is marvellous that we have done as well as we have and still be so handicapped. The application blanks which come to the officers to be signed show that the Jane F. Case bed is used to the limit of it's income, and Oftentimes the board has allowed others to occupy it, the bills being paid from our own treasury. The cit izens free bed is of course in great demand at all times. We have re- Ceived generous supplies of linen from the churches during the year for use in all our buildings, and we trust in the year to come that there will be no lessening of the amount, for it seems impossible for Us to have too much. When our city was in the grasp of in huenza last fall and our hospital was overcrowded we needed all we had and more.
 "There should always be a large supply ready for emergencies, and the hard usage which bed linen must have in an institution makes it all the more necessary to have an amount on hand. Some churches, in stead of giving linen, have sent in sums of money. We received such remembrance from the Women's 5 society of the Jewish church. The Thanksgiving donations were we'll att tended to, as they always are, under the care of Mrs. J. A. Traut, assisted by her committee. There was no lack of good things in the way of chickens and turkeys. vegetables and fruits, flowers and jellies, and money with which to buy them. At Christmas, the same attention was paid to the celebration in the wards as in other years-handkerch being presented to the women and socks to the men; also filled berry bowl to the super intendent and nurses; Dr. Promo en providing the trees as usual. Again at Easter all were remembered. Mrs. HumaSOn stated that Easter cards were presented to all patients, a little gift to each child and a plant to every patient and nurse. The plant was es- pecially accepta ble-many asking to carry it away when they were dis missed from the institution. The Sunshine society still keeps up it's pleas sant custom of distributing oranges weekly, and it is a pleasant diversion to see the cheerful faces of the young ladies who bring their Of ferings to the sick ones One of the best things, however, which we can hear of our hospital is that the food is of the best, and the preparation of it also, and that no institution any, where about has anything better to offer in this line.

nurses, Miss Clara Des Jardins, has returned to us again as superintendent Of the School for Nurses. Miss Des Jardins left after some years or service to go to Camp Lee, Nir- ginia, and later went overseas. It is pleasure to all to learn that she has resumed her duties in New Britain. Every effort is made to make things pleasant for the nurses. The home provided is help; even so, the super intendent feels that more aCcommo- dations are needed. Young ladies taking up such an arduOus profession neea good rooms, and cramped quar- ters make it impossible for them to get the rest which they need in order to do justice to the sick ones. There should be some incentive to young women coming to our hospital for training and they should know that right accommodations will be given to them. There are now at the insti- tutlon nine graduate nurses and 2S pupil nurses, it being expected that outside help will be called in if oc- casiOn requires.
 Tn the month of June occurred the graduation of a large class of nurses at the Y. W. c. A. gymnasium, the Womans board as usual sending flowers. A very interesting talk was gwen by Dr. Lyman of the Tubercu- loSls Institution at Wallingford, fol- lowed by the presentation of diplomas some of our directors have felt that sufficient diversion is not provided for the nurses, and that they need some peasant occasions to look forward to- A committee composed of Mrs H. B. Humason, Mrs. w. c. HungerfOrd, Mrs. F. A. Searle and Mrs J. R. Andrews was chosen to consider the matter and from time to time very attract en- tertainments will be provided for them. It has just been brought to our attention that a new X-ray machine is about to be provided for the hos pital which will certainly be inval- uable. At one time two of our good friends installed such a machine, which has done good service, but now a new one which will be up to date is to take its place, also the gift of an- other friend of the hospital. The out look for the future is very bright. Others have given financial assistance. It remains for us as a board and for members of the board to do the many things which we are able to do, very thoroughly and well''

Government officials stated
that the high cost of necessities
was responsible for the dissatis-

The paper, printed in German, is

colony in Mexico. Translations
in part Of the article follow:
"The day Of revenge Of the
German people is not far off. We
shall do good to practice until
