Penon de Coron.

Few persons besides Chinese traders
visit the forbidding shores of rock
bound Penon de Coron. The rugged
beauty of its towering cliffs, with their
dark and jagged outlines against the
southern sky, is lost upon the natives
who see them only as source of rev.
enue. BY swinging from ropes or climb
ing ladders they scour these rocks for
the tiny nests from which are concoc-
ted the famous bird nest soup These
nests they sell to oriental traders by
thousands, who come regularly to bar
ter for this delicacy Of Chinese fare.

Rug making Is as old as Greece IL

that weaver could be persuaded to

two kinds, the heavy ones used In win

were Of the simplest but later the
Greeks borrowed floral designs from
the Perslans, when loan was amply
repaid with the development of Gre

GOOD SERVICE APPRECIATED

Personality and constant work in in
dvidual homes achieved unusual sue
cess for Miss Mary Brady, home dem
onstrator in Marathon county. House
wives in eevry small town and hamlet
in the district knew her and have ex-
hibited keen interest in the occasional
cooking and sewing demonstrations she
arranges in each place.
Miss Brady has been in Wausau for
year and a half, coming from Mil
waukee where she was connected with
the Milwaukee county council of de-
Tense doing war demonstration work.
So much has the Marathon county
board come TO think of Miss Brady and
her home extension cause that the
board did something that's only been
done once. Miss Brady's year ended
July ]. The board had no meeting
scheduled near that date and every
thing points to Miss Brady's leaving
until later arrangement could be af-
fected. However, the entire board went
on a trip to the western part of the
county to see new road tract or work.
There Frank j. Gaetzman, chairman,
called a special meeting to consider the
appointment of Miss Brady, for an
other year. A unanimous vote was east
away out in the country and under the
blue sky. A substantial salary increase
was also granted.
Girls clubs in which the members
are 10 to 10 have been organized by
Miss Brady in Hatley, Ringle, Colby,
Athens, Edgar, Mosinee, and near An
tigo, in the northeastern part of the
county. The number of members in
each locality has been rapidly swelling
rural communities especially exhibiting
interest in modern ways of preparing
food Sewing has been made feature
and Miss Brady's girls have been
taught how to keep themselves attired
neatly and in style. When blueberries
were plentiful and also raspberries,
blackberries, and other fruits, Miss
Brady instructed hundreds of girls in
preserving.
Trips were made daily into the coun-
ty where she work ed with them in their
homes
81 have been very much encouraged
by the cooperation extended to me by
mothers" Miss Brady said. "These
true country mothers have been keenly
interested in everything that has been
done for their daughters and they take
an active part in assisting in the in
struction."
A much more extensive program will
be arranged for the coming winter.
Miss Brady is assisted by several able
workers and by +. G. Swoboda, farm
agent of Marathon county, whose work
takes him into the country most of the
time.
The above is taken from a Wausau
paper Miss Brady is a Manitowoc
county girl, having been born and
reared in the town of Liberty. She
taught school inthis county for some
years and then attended the Stevens
POINT Normal school from which she
graduated few years. ago. Her many
friends here will read with pleasure of
her success in her chosen work.

The bible and Women Preachers

Women preachers are taking COM
fort from the fact that one champion
has discovered what they think is bib
llcal recognition for them. In the
prayer book version Of Psalm xviii,
occurs the verse, "The Lord gave the
word; great was the company Of the
preachers" The revised version OF
t'fe Bible translates the passage thus !;
al Lord giyeth the word. The wom-

Trees of Sorrow.

The Persian "Trees of Sorrow" are
so called because they bloom only at
night. When the first star appears In
the sky the first flower opens and as
the evening advances more and more
buds burst into bloom until the lovely
tree appears to be one vast flower. 1t
has a delicate fragrance not unlike
the scent of the evening primrose. AS
the dawn approaches the flowers begin

COLLEGES LOSE TEACHERS
Poor Salaries Forcing Professors
to Abandon Teaching and to
Enter Business World.
BY DR.. WILLIAM r. FOSTER
President, Reed College, Portland,
Oreuon.

Our colleges have done their Jobs
too well. They have trained men so
successfully that when they desire to
hold one of these men for their own
use, they can no longer do it. The
teacher finds that there are any mum.
Der of positions awaiting him in the
world of business at salaries that are
very much higher than the maximum
that his college will ever be able to
pay him.
Large numbers of students who nev.
er thought of going to college before
the war are seeking higher education
and are coming to our schools of high
er learning in great numbers. The
teaching STATS, on the other hand, are
smaller than they were before the war.
Men have left to enter all branches OF
service. and they are not coming back
to the poverty of teacher.

San Francisco, Sept. 9,-Direct

Catalogues, quoting prices and en-
umerating the location of stores are

cities and the goods offered for sale
will be available through mail orders

was said has large surplus stocks of

which no state dare reject without
laying itself open to the imputation
that il is ruled by more sordid con-
siderations.
The old oregon will hold a place in
American history beside the old Con-
stitution as the ship which made a
voyage without parallel to take de-
cisive part in the most crushing vic
tory of our naval history. That voy-
age marked an epoch in our history,
for it gave an impetus to the move
ment for the building of the Panama
Canal which caused its completion.
Thus the name of the state is linked
with the battle of Santiago and with
the canal which vitally influences the
states fortunes.
Governor Olcott should not hesitate
to pledge the good faith Of the state
to do its part in establishing the Ore
gon at its home, there to be shrine
to all loyal Americans. He need not
hesitate through any doubt that the
people of the state will make good
the pledge, for they have abundant
ly proved their readiness to meet
every such obligation.-Oregonian.
