From the time a girl reaches the
age of twelve until womanhood is es-
tablished. she needs all the care a
thoughtful mother can give.
The condition that the girl is then
passing throughis so critical, and may
have such ~fsr-reaching effects upon
her future happiness and health, that
it is almost criminal for a mother or
guardian to withhold counsel or ad-
vice.
Many a woman has suffered years
of prolongedpain and misery through
having been the victim of thought
lessness or ignorance on the part of
those who should have guided her
through the dangers and difficulties
that beset this period.
Mothers should teach their girls
what danger comes from standing
around with cold or wet feet, from
lifting heavy articles, and from over
working. Donot let them over-study.
II they complain of headache, pains
in the back and lower limbs, they

SEARCH MADE FOR
OLD LAKE ROWB0AT

A search is being made for a cedar
rowboat made 81 years ago by l.. A.
Kerr, now located on Frankton or
chard, for service on Lost Lake. The
boat, built in sections, was transported
to the lake over rough forest trail by
pack pony. 1t was of material not
affected by weather conditions, and for
many years it was in commission on
the highland body of water. Mr.. Kerr,
who had been engaged for many years
as a rowboat builder at La Crosse,
Wis, constructed the small craft for
Ralph Savage pioneer, merchant. 1t
was built on the same pattern as sew
real rowboats made for officials of the
government locks around the Cascades.
1t is proposed to use the old cedar
boat in celebration at the lake mark
ing the completion of the joint county
and Forestry Service highway pene-
trating the region. Some express the
opinion that the boat may have
swamped, and suggestions for the
dragging of the lake bottom have been
made

reports is the expression Of newspaper
men in appreciation of the courtesy of
the employees of the circus.
1t has been many years since Hood

Indeed, no parade has ever been given
by circus showing on the Heights be-
cause OF the steep grades of the city
streets. 1t is not likely that the Howe
shows will be able to make the down
town trip with the heavy wagons and
animal cages. The recent improves

may make it possible to resume this
time honored custom Of starting their
thrills at the way the antics of the
