Portland, Ore.
MISS Ethel Hart, who for the past fourteen years has been chief operator in the Comptometer Bureau for the auditor of disbursements of the Union Pacific Ry. Co. (O.W.R. & N. Co.), resigned her position on the first of October. Miss Hart has an enviable record as a Comptometer operator and after a short vacation expects to do temporary work.—Mrs. Bell Howard.

CANDIDATE FOR THE HOLE IN ONE CLUB
Miss Gladys Larsen, of the Eastmoreland Golf Club, yesterday achieved the feat extraordinary when she holed out a mashie shot across Johnson creek from the fourth tee. Playing with the dodo maker were M. O. Kauts and N. H. Hillyard.
Miss Larsen has only been playing golf since January, 1926. (It will be hard for the people in the lands of eternal ice and snow to appreciate this, but the people from Florida, California, and the other garden spots of the earth will know what we mean.) Miss Larsen officiates at the Ford Motor Co. as their Comptometer Bureau in the day time, and has charge of the Portland Night School evenings. Miss Larsen in a recent competition open to all comers, walked off with the prize by adding a standard column in eighteen and four-fifths seconds, so we can vouch that she is as good a teacher and Comptometer operator as she apparently is a golf player.
The greatest structure is made up of little things—nails, stones, bricks, beams, bits of glass. So is life made up of little things—words, smiles, frowns, thoughts, gestures. Watch the little things.
