THE 3IORXING O R EG O X I AN, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 8, 1908. E Commercial Club's Prizes Di vided Among 80 Con testants. BALTIMORE MAN FIRST Mateel Howe, of Portland, Is . w n r (I tl Soo n (I I I it oe O regc n liftt ImmrfiMp Advertising All Over United States. The Commercial ("tub's prize wsay con ent was decided last night. John Roach Strntton. of Baltimore, Md.. was awarded The capital prize of $1000. and Mis Mateel Howe, of Portland, was awarded the sec (.nd prize of $500. Eighty prizes, were Awarded, varying In amount from $2p0 to iU' A total of $.vi0 was distributed mnnK SO out of 34 contestants. Oregon received a tremendous amount of advertising as the result of the Com mercial Club's contpt, which was carried through by Manager Tom Richardson. N'nt only were the articles entered in the contest, which were descriptive of Port lnnd and n-egon, printed in new.papers nH over the I nited States, hut a number of prize-winning stories were published in forflen papers. The contept was a treat success from every standpoint, and par ticularly in that it aroused widespread in terest in this state because of the pub licity secured, the oh feet of the t'ommcr-.-ial'riub in launching the contest. Judges In the contest wre Professor James F. Bwine. of Portland Academy; .1. K. Tyler, news editor of the Oregon Journal. "and W. J. Cuddy, editor of The Weekly Oreironinn. The committee re turned its findings lust nipht. Judges Face Huge Task. It was a monumental task: for the com mittee to decide upon the merits of the. large number of articles submitted. In a number of cases single contestants sub mitted a number of articles, one entering ,"3 consecutive letters appearing in a weekly publication. Tt was decided at the outset by the Judges that only one prize should be awarded to individual con trstniit?. The contest was started in the Spring of iftrirt. and was at first planned to include only articles by schoolteachers who vis ited the lewis and Clark Fair from the Fast. It. ws.s believed that if the impres sions of these teachers were written and printed tn perlodicwls printed outside of Oregon, the resulting publicity would prove very beneficial for Oregon. The scope of the contest was enlarged a little Uter to include any one who wished to f ntet. "hecke will be written tomorrow by Manager Tom Richardson, of the Com mercial Club, and mailed to prize-winners. The report of the judges of the contest is as follows: Mr. Thorn a Richardson, Manager Com merelal Club: vour committee, appointed hy Ooverne-r fienrire. R. t'liamherlaln to deride the prize mniff fer ' the bept sustained stortcp of I'erriand and vleinity. hp leave to report: Oregon Widely Advertised. That in nil aMut TllO contestant suh mltted Brticls nnd the total number of newspaper, mn r zl new and othr periodicals tn which stories appearrfl will reach ah-uit 400. The. newspapers used as vehicles for th stories are publications issued In every sfate of the t'nton and In many of the prominent cities of the country. Articles submitted and accepted have been published tn several foreign newspapers, nottreably In ireat Britain. rnnnOa and Mexico. The con test was far-reahinir tn Its Rood results and not only wear the articles formtnsr the hulk of the eoTreFnondence published In the newspapers Co which they were submitted hy contestants, hut the clipping bureaus Phnw that thev were extensively re pled and rommnied upon tn hundreds of publications not entered as 'With pet Itlve" papers. As an advertising medium no better method could have been adopted. When the returns shall have been checked up the re mits will undoubtedly show that Portland and Orejron have been benefited to the ex tent of thousands upon thousands of dollars. Roughly estimated, the direct advertising value of the articles entered In the contest would have cost about e"2.".onn. Just how mti'-h more of advert! sine value could be totaled from Indirect results will probably be better calculated later In the season. Rvery article entered In the contest was given the most careful consideration. Rach member of the committee passed on the stories and tn many cases there were two and three readinrw of one article. A deal of time has been consumed In a -riving at conclusions as to prizes, but this could not be avoided as the reading and rereading of approximately SoO.liOO words of copv had to be done at odd hours, as all of your committee are busy men. No one of us has slighted the work and con testants can rewt assured that no snap judgment was taken of their work Trusting that the findings of the com mittee will please the rluh and satisfy the contestants, we are, respectfully, JAMES K.

Miss Matcel Howe, winner of second prize, was a Kansas girl, having been born in Atchison. Kan.. 24 years ago. She has lived in Portland the pa.st two years. Although a child of the prries. she has come to like Portland and its nearby mountains better than the plains of the Middle West, as her prize-winninfp story shows. Miss Howe received her education in some of the best Kastern schools, hoins a graduate of the Mt. Vernon Seminary, Washington. T. . where she lived for four years. Upon graduation, in 19it5. she accompanied her father. E. w. Howe, on a trip around the world.

Her father is editor of the Atchison lobe and ts the author of a number of books. His latest work is the story of the trip around the world, .which has had a large sale. Miss Howe's two brothers are newspaper men. She has been a con tributor to various periodicals for soma time. The Independent. Xew York, re cently printed one of her stories and an other will appear in the Ladies' Home Journal in the July number. She got ht?r name, Mateel, from the heroine of her fathers book, "The Story of a Kansas Town."

Read the testi mony of a woman of your own citj, perhaps a neighbor. Portland Testimony Mrs. A. S. Cummings, 244 Clackamas street, Portland. Oregon, says: "I am always pleased to say a good word for Doan's Kidney Pills and readily con firm the statement I gave some years ago In their favor, after they had re lieved me of kidney trouble. This com plaint had clung to me for a long time, and often the attacks of pain tn my bark were so acute as to be almost unbearable. There was also a dull, heavy aching in the region of my Kid neys, and though I was constantly us ing remedies, the annoyance still con tinued. The irregular action of the kidney secretions showed that my rur ferlng arose from the kidneys, and when Doan's Kidney Pills were rec ommended to me. I prooired s, supply at the Laue-Davls Drug Co. They not only eradicated the pains in my back, but strengthened the kidneys and im proved my health." ... CO., Buffalo, N. Y Proprietors 1 4
