IN MEMORIAM

In the quiet hour Of the early morning of October 30, 1920, Ellen Winston Damron passed from this earthly life, into the glorious city of God. At eventide, amid sorroWing relatives and friends, we laid that prescious casket of clay back in the bosom of mother earth. We wanted to keep her! But when we think of her being one of that great md happy throng in the pre- ence of the GIorified Christ. it would be sacrelege to wish her back. So in humblest sub mission, Lord, Thy will =be lone. o husband and relativ- es, look up! Heaven is sweet, CT ana more beautiful Slnc2 ahe is there. And in Gods good time there will be a glor ous home coming, a reuniting of loved ones, methinks it will be the supremest hour of bIise-"In His presence there is fullness of joy and pleasur- es forever more
 Adieu, but not farewell, in that glorious land of Gods presence and in the light Of the loving Christ, we will meet again. Then, o, Death. !. Where is thy sting? o, grave you have no victory.
 A FRIEND.

A crowd that taxed the capacity Of
the high school basket ball gallery and
court, Tuesday night. Jan. IL, saw the
fats" and leans" teams, picked from
the prominent business men of Ore
gon, play a game of basketball. Dur
ing their practice period, the crowds
were put into a frenzy of enthusiasm
at the many labored efforts Of the
amateurs to find the basket. When
ever the ball happened TO find the en-.
WED circle, the applause was dcafen-
ing. The court was so crowded with
spectators that II was hard to keep
them back. Everett Erhar was the
referee, and many times. when he
blew his whistle for foul, the players
would not hear him, and kept on play.
ing until the referee had TO wrest the
ball from them. The game was play.

ed in four quarters Of ten minutes
each. Some Of the cleans" WED with
a lamp post for slenderosity, while
some Of the fats" were worthy to be
compared with the family wash tub.
II was well-played game on both
sides, but the fats finally nosed out
BY 81 to Ia score. The players were
as follows:
Fats-Dr. Il. G. Pierce, W. T. Walk.
or, Ed Durham. Charlie Patterson, Ira
Bucher, Oakley Morris, Chester
Springer, W. n. Alkire.
Leans-Will Bragg, Don Martin

The proceeds, abort $500, went &c
the high and grade schools towair
purchasing Eiisons and Nictrolas.
Doctors and surgeons and stretcher'
were ready to carry the wounded of
the field Of battle, but no players wer,
seriously hurt. This game will stil
UP much interest for basketball in til,
future. Many people were there who
had never been there before or seen {
basketball game. Every one there wen
away rejoicing that they had received
their moneys worth and their RICH
change back. y. y.

of D-eaconesses at Kaiserworth, Ger
many, to train as a nurse, the only
place in Europe where women could
receive training without arousing a
storm of criticism. She supplemented
this with an apprenticeship under the
Sisters of Charity, Paris, and later be-
came superintendent Of Harley Street
hospital, London.
When the Crimean war broke out,
Florence Nightingale received her call
to service. She was appointed super
intendent of the female nursing estab-
lishment in the English general mill
tary hospital in Turkey. She arrived
at Scutari in time to take charge of
the four hundred wounded of the
"Charge of the Light Brigade" Lack
of sanitation, supplies, and efficient
personnel, and the prejudice of medi-
cal officers were difficulties she over
came. Out of chaos emerged order.
The soldiers called her "The Minister
ing Angel"
AS a hospital sanitarian reformer
and foremost authority on hospital
construction and administration in Eu-
rope, Florence Nightingale became
known and consulted. She published
"Notes on Nursing" established a
training school and founded modern
nursing. Before the end of her re-
markable career she received all the
recognition denied her during the Cri-
mean war and won the Order of Merit
and other decorations. She died in
1910, four years before the world war,
and was buried near her old home, al
though grateful England offered a
tomb in Westminster Abbey.

HALF BILLION is
MOUN
LATELY CONVERTED

Washington, March 26.-Converted
government life insurance today pas
sed the half-billion mark with a daily
rate of conversion during the past
week of $5,OOO,OOO. The re-instate-
ments of the week, alone, exceed
5 3,000,0 900. The number of applica-
tons pending for reinstatement which
recently showed $4,000 Enacted upon
has been reduced to 1000 and the num-
Der is being lessened by 500 daily
which shows conversion applications
will, within a short time, be respond
ed to Immediately. Out of all appli-
cations received only 24O have been
rejected. The total insurance now car
ried makes the bureau one-third larg-
Ler than the largest private concern.
The American Legion conference to-
day decided that the insurance belongs
to service men and that the legion
must take hold in order to get it for it's
members.

LIBRARIANS JOIN
FIGHT ON UNREST
American Library Association In
augurates Nationwide Books
for Everybody" Movement.
WILL AID FOREIGN BORN.
Social Problems Can Be Solved
by Teaching American Ideals
and Traditions.

The spirit Of unrest that has been
sweeping the country indicates that
the foreign born, who have focked to
the United States from every corner of
h globe have not been given the
proper help and encouragement, in the
opinion of the 1000 librarians who
make up the American Library Associ-
alton and who are now enlisted in a
Books for Everybody" movement.
The effort is a concerted movement
to carry out the Enlarged Program
which the association has adopted.
There are approximately fifteen mil.
lions of foreign born in the United
States and of this number six millions
do not read or speak the English Ian
guage. One phase of the Enlarged
Program will be to bring the publisher
and translator together with the view
of furnishing the proper books in sui.
ficient numbers to carry the message
Of American ideals and traditions to
this vast army Of uniformed peo-
pie. They have been largely dependent
upon the foreign press for their writ
ten messages. Many men who live
with their fingers on the pulse of cur
rent events are firmly convinced that
a sound foundation in A~mericanism
al be easily built among the foreign
born If the proper literature is placed
within their reach in a language they
al understand.
No Drive to Be Held.
Tn nr1nH En- m ~,,k <b4 LN.1o--.l
Program two million dollars will be
required. This money will no be
sought through the medium of a CAM
paign or an intensive drive, but will
be obtained through the individual ef-
forts Of the Librarians, library trustees
and friends Of libraries. The Amer
lean Library Association will bend
every effort to bring about the ma
tion-wide adoption Of each Of the
cardinal points in the Program, which
includes the extension Of the county H.
brary sytem and the establishment of
more industrial and business libraries.
1t now has in operation book service
to the United States Merchant Marine,
Coast Guard, Lighthouse Service and
hospitals of the United States Public
Health Service. The needs Of the
$4,000 blind persons in the United
States will be cared for. At present
the number of books available Is woe
fully inadequate. This will be reme-
died and the joys of good literature
will be brought into lives that are
darkened by a veil which will never
be raised by any other method.
Not all the work of Americanization
lies in the great centers Of population.
Great sections Of the country where in
dustry is carried On by foreign work
ers do mo- know public library service.
There are important mining states
where less than a score Of libraries
exist. One mining state has but two
public libraries.
