Interest the school children in this

feature for Arbor Day.
Now that emergency work is nearing
the end it will be a most opportune

AMERICANS NEVER QUIT

The Germans found that the Ameri-
can doughboys at the front were not
cutters Let us show those dough
boys that the Americans who STAYED
at home are not cutters. There is no
better way to do this than to hold on
to the Liberty Bonds We have and buy
to the limit when We are asked to
take more.
Carter Glass, Secretary of the
Treasury, said recently:
Our boys at the front in the service
of the government have never quit II
you sell your Liberty Bonds you quit
at a time when the government needs
your continued support Every time
you quit by selling your Liberty Bonds
you hurt the credit of our govern.
ment and make it more difficult to
finance the war. The cost of the war
continues until peace is signed and
our gallant boys are brought back to
American soil.
There is no excuse for you to sell
your bonds unless you are without
food or are to be turned out of your
home. In Liberty Bond you have
the safest investment in the world
The credit of the United States, whose
wealth is estimated at $250,000,000 coo,

reach of her hand to make Oregon a
big industrial state.
EFFECT OF PAYROLLS IN A
STATE: Creates more homes, schools,
libraries, churches, contents more peo
ple, keeps families nearer together,
raises property values, reduces taxes.
EFFECT OF BUYING OUT.OF.
STATE PRODUCTS: Out of every
dollar spent for product made outside
of Oregon only the dealers profit
stays here, not more than 25 cents.
The remaining rs cents goes and stays
away forever. When a $l.00 is spent
for Oregon product it all remains here,

EVILS OF MAIL ORDER BUY
ING: The home merchant pays taxes
that maintain streets and roads,
schools. churches and all public effort.
The door of the local merchant is al
ways open when money is needed for
charity or any community work. The
eastern mail order house does nothing
but drain the city and state of wealth.
HOW CAN EACH HELP? Every
woman should demand Oregon products
from her dealer, insist that he carry
them in stock. Influence the inconsid-
crate consumer to do likewise.

BANDS BUSINESS OR SALARY IN
FLUENCED BY PAYROLL MONEY?
No person, school teacher, professional
or business man, farmer or clerk, but
who depends directly or indirectly on
industry. either in your own city or
larger ones in the state.
Larger cities depend upon smaller
ones for many things; the latter pro-
duce farm, dairy and other items, and
the more people in cities creates more
demand.

Western Club WOman'S Consumers Neel

The observance of "Western Con-
sumers' week" this year will begin
Monday, April IA, and end Sunday.
April 20, with "Home Products Din
ner."
The purpose Of this week-which
was started by the women of the west
six years ago-is to educate and rea-
waken our home people so that they
will show by precept and practice that
they believe in the encouragement of
home industry, and the promotion of
the principles for which every loyal
citizen stands-the upbuilding of his
home community. This means the 10y
atty to home manufacturers and the
purchase of goods in your home town,
your home state, or the west.
For three years the governors Of
Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana,
Nevada and Utah have issued procla-
nations calling on their constituents to
observe Western Consmers' Week. the
presidents of the state tederations Of
women's clubs of these states ha e
sent the same message to their club
members, the commercial clubs have
participated in the observance, enter
prising merchants have displayed wes-
tern-made articles. and best of all
the women of these states, the buyers,
have demonstrated their power and or
ganization by asking for and buying
the goods bearing the western brands.
AS a result of this intensive cam
paign by the women of the west. liter
ally millions of dollars have been
spent with western manufactufe that
otherwise would have gone east of the
Mississippi river. The money thus
spent at home has been respent by the
manufacturers for labor. new build
ings and consequently more labor
and so on in cycle that has brought
prosperity to the west.

The following letter shows how the
Federation's interest is appreciated by
the University Of Oregon;
Eugene, Ore, March q, 1919.
My dear Mrs. Castner:
am taking the liberty in behalf of
the sponsors OF the physical education
bill recently passed to express profound
appreciation Of the help of the Oregon
Federation Of Women's Clubs. 70 it
and to some of the larger organizations
composing it is undoubtedly due in good
part the present physical education
law. And want to ask that you do
not lose sight of all that the law may
mean to the children OF the state. The
effectiveness with which its provisions
are carried out will inevitably be in
proportion to the interest and substan.
tal support given by parents and the
general public. AS the most powerful
moulder of public opinion on matters
Of child welfare in the state, will not
the Federation undertake to keep be
fore it the possibilities opened up by
this law and the imperative need of its
provisonsi
! urge a strong program of physical
exercise on behalf Of girls because
their needs in this respect are more
often disregarded than are those Of
boys. But the results of army examin-
ations are sufficient evidence for them,
and the army program of athletics and
tactics has sent back to US living proofs
Of its effectiveness.
am hoping that the Federation may
see fit to keep this matter before the
public eye. You probably know that
/ Washington has just passed similar
law, making 10 states in the last two
years. If any club would like statistics
concerning the physical needs of girls
can furnish an abundance from the rec
otdS of our physical examinations.
Very sincerely yours,

A great step forward in publ
health has been secured by the psssag
Of the compulsory physical education
law at the recent Legislature. Thi
Dill provides for medical inspection
and supervision of all schools. Man,
children Will be saved from stunte,

posture and the above mentioned de-
fects.
Under this bill the physical instructor
will carefully inspect the desks to see
that each child has desk that is prop
erly fitted to that child. thereby pre-
venting any cases of round shoulders a.
well as deformlties of the spine, in.
cluding lordosis, kyphosis and scoliosis,
which very often get their start in the
school room.
A sitting Up exercise of at least two
minutes duration at the beginning of
each class hour will help to stretch the
tired and cramped muscles after sitting
quiet for period and will quicken the
circulation and tend toward mental
alertness. Any tendency toward poor
posture will be checked by these sitting
up exercises and better general pos

Talks on hygiene will be given at

talks on the care of the skin, hair. etc. =,
the value of the shower bath after ex.
ercise, the common defects of the or
dinary posture and how to correct them
and how to detect these points of pos
ture so that the pupil will develop a
pride in his posture and maintain a
correct one.
Gymnastic drill, an exercise of at
least 60 minutes a week, will be given
by trained instructor. This will
strengthen the weak muscles and secure
a symmetrical. we'll developed muscu-
lar system that has good coordination
and good healthy vigor that is a great

The won of the State Federation
can do much in the promotion Of this

ESSEX IS DRIVEN 1872
MILES LOCKED In HIGH

Locked in high gear. stock Essex
touring car has just completed the
most remarkable demonstration of
automobile endurance ever planned or
undertaken in Vermont, according to
word received today by B. B. Elkins,
distributor.
Driven by e. W. williams of Ben
nington, VT" he said, this Essex COW
cred 1872 miles under the eyes of Of
ficial observers. Throughout the trip
not single mechanical adjustment of
any kind was necessary. At night the
car was left in charge of the police
at the towns visited.
THE road taken covered most of
the main highways of Vermont and
some in New Hampshire. The two
biggest grades surmounted were the
Searsburg mountain climb between
Brattleboro and Bennington. and
Union hill in Brattleboro. The Sears
burg mountain rises from an elevation
of 1.750 feet above the sea level to
1850 feet in a distance of IL miles
The Union hill shows rise of 100
feet In q of a mile.
THE gasoline used averaged 1915
miles per gallon, which is considered
wonderful record because of the
bad road conditions encountered and
the steepness of the grades surmount-
cd. Three-quarters ofthe journey was
made over roads soaked with heavy
rains. Only once on the journey did
the oil indicator get low enough to
permit the addition of quart Of oil.
Two quarts of water were added to
the supply in the radiator during the
test
''At the end of the run. which occu-
pied little over two weeks, the Of
fetal observer reported that "if there
is any difference. the car showed
more power than it did at the begin
ming"
