TINE age Of Periclss was one

TINE age Of 'Periclss was one
Of the most brilliant periods
IN all history.
Athens was then In the flower
Of her greatness. Not only In
military greatness was Athens 1t
her zenith. but In art. science and
literature she led the world.
The men who worked and
taught then laid the foundation
for much Of our culture Of which
we are proud today.
Euripides and Sophocles repre-
scented the drama: Socrates and
Plato. philo1ophy. Herodotus
linked the old civilization with the
modern by his histories. Pindar
wrote his beautiful odes. which
have been unsurpassed.
It was at this time that such
beautiful monuments 80 the Par
thenon and the Odeun were
erected under the supervision OF
the great sculptor, architect ana
painter. Phidias.

called THE milky way Of great

he lived % II she had been his

But the union Of the great

gifted Aspasia is one Of the few
Of lite kind in history which
possesses dignity and commands
respect.
Il was admitted that the remark

Of Aspasia was the handspring
Of tho greatness OF Pericles.
Aspaaia suffered rs q result OF
Pariclee' political supremacy. Per-
iclae had many enemies. They
vented their wrath on the woman
he loved.
Aspasia was for this reason
charged with Inaplsty and many
other crimes.

"What Is Religion 2"
Thousands Have Answered the Question.
Can't Print All the Answers

Some time ago this newspaper printed editorial which
asked this question:
What is Religion? and suggested that some readers
might send in definitions.
Thousands Of readers have definitions excellent inter-
eg and important because they prove how deep
the word religion stirs in the human mind.
Unfortunately does not permit the printing Of the
letters, but we thank the writers of them ALL
From such letters learn that religion the search for
abstract truth interests human beings more than all the

ORIGIN OF CHINOOK
INDIAN JARGON TOLD

Origin of the Chinook language, or
jargon, spoken by Indians of the
Northwest, was told recently bv Prof.
Edmond s. Meany, of the Uni 'ty
of Washington. in an article he
Washington Historical Quarterly, pub
lished at the university.
This name was used for group of
Indian tribes occupying the lower
banks of the Columbia river. accord
ing to Professor Meany. The word
is said to come from Tsinuk, the Che
halls Indian name for the Chinook In
dians. The Chinook jargon, or trade
language, was begun from the brief
vocabulary recorded at Nootkka by
Captain James Cook in 1778. The
headquarters of the fur trade was re-
moved to the Columbia river after the
founding of Astoria in 1911. Many
Chinook Indian words were added, and
in that way 1t became known as the
Chinook jargon instead of the Nootka
iargon. The word. becoming familiar,

DARNINe OF sTocKlNes.

Materials Needed-Worn stocking,
darning cotton to match both in color
and size. long eyed needle not too
coarse.
Directions for Making Darn-Turn
stocking right side out; place left
hand inside and smooth stocking over
1t. Trim off ragged edges with scis-
sors. Place running stitch around
edge of hole and draw up very slight
ly to counterfeit tendency to stretch.
A darn should be made on the right
side.
First put in lengthwise threads, al
lowing them to extend about IA inch
beyond edge of hole. Next, weave first
over and then under edge so that
there will be no ridges. Do not draw
thread too tight as washing causes
threads to shrink and then the darn
will not be smooth. (See illustration.)
White Bluffs spokesman. [volume] (White Bluffs, Wash.) 1907-1938, 1923-07-06

Directions for Making Overhead
Patch-Prepare hole as for hemmed
patch by trimming, slashing corners,
and turning. Cut patch IL inch larger
each way than hole.
After matching the pattern, crease
diagonally opposite corners in both
garment and patch, to obtain the CEN
tiers. Turn in the edges of the patch
Ia inch; on the wrong side Of ma
terial carefully following thread. Lay
the wrong side Of patch to right side
of garment, with creases and figures
matched.
Basic with short stitches very close
to the turned edges.
Beginning little distance from cor
ner, overland the edge Of the patch
to the garment with close stitches,
catching only two threads of each. Be

DARNING OF WOOL GARMENT.
Materials Needsd-Woolen garment
with tear at right angles. Thread to
match. Threads travelled from same
fabric are often used if strong
enough. Never use cotton thread on
wool material.
Directions for Darning-Baste a
thin piece of cloth or net on under
side Of tear to hold 1t in place, Work
with running stitch without knot and
begin a few threads beyond tear. Con-
tinue back and forth across tear.
Keep thread just loose enough not
to draw and to allow for stretching
and pulling in use. This is usually &C.
companied by leaving tiny loop at
the turn of each row of stitching. At
the corner where direction of tear
changes, there will be both warp and
wool rows Of darning. These should
be interviewer like stocking darn.

was frequently used for geographic
names, some of which have persisted.
On early charts there was shown an
Indian village on the eastern bank of
Port Discovery as Chinook. That name
has disappeared. An early settlement
on Baker bay in Pacific county re-
ceived and has retained the name Chi
nook. What is now known as Scar
borro hill was once called Chinook
hill. A small stream flowing into Ba-
ker bay has been mapped a number of
times as Chinook river. while others
use Wappalooche as its name. James
G.. Swan says: which would carry US
down the Wappalooche, or Chinook
river, to its mouth" Chinook point
mentioned by Swan as the headquar-
tiers of the once powerful tribe of Chi
nook Indians, was called Point Komk-
komle" In 1911 by David Thompson OF
the Northwest company of Montreal.

chief of the Chinooks in early Astoria
days.
