Growing Greater Every fir ..iv t i 'Su m a " Ipr Did. a. larger business in Oregon in 1 909 than any otner Life Insurance Company and. is now surpassing its own wonderful record of last year. The Only life Insurance Company Exclusively Oregon Home Office, Corbett Bldg., Fifth and Morrison, Portland A. L Mills President New Bills Open at the Vaudeville Houses Orpheum. ANNA LAUGHLIN, in her melange of chatter, song and dances, Elita Proctor Otis, a delightful comedienne, and well, say, Marshall Montgomery, a ventriloquist of merit are the three best bets on the Orpheum bill this week. The much featured talk by Matt Hensen, the negro who was the constant companion of Robert E. Peary on his Polar expedition, turned out to be about as exciting as an idle hour with Polk's directory. He recited stat istics and brought out nothing that the Encyclopedia Brittanica hasn't had for years. Whatever applause the au dience granted Hensen came when Old Glory was trotted out, a la Georgie Cohan, at the end of his act. They applauded the flag, and the fact that "we" discovered the Pole. One, of those really funny acts Is "Mrs. Bunner's Bun," which is just what Its title would Indicate. Elita Proctor Otis Is Mrs. Bunner and she acquires the "bun" In trying to help her husband forget the wine when it is red. Miss Otis is a positively de lightful comedienne, and Is a forcible reminder of Marie Cahill in the way she manages things. She is assisted in most able manner by Harry Burk hardt, as Mr. Bunner. It's a very, very funny act, and decidedly catching In its humor. Anna Laughlin, who has become fa mous the country over as the "Toyland comedienne," is the loud smash of the bill. Dainty and diminutive, Anna sings a little, chats a bit and dances most acceptably. The audience is loath to let her go at all, even after a most gen erous contribution from her. She sings one song most fetchingly about losing her dog. In which she appears as a little girl with bow-bedecked curls and fluffy skirts. Another song which makes a great hit is "Penny-land." La Rose and La Gusta are European novelty "wirists," whose work and re sults are far above the ordinary, and the general excellence of their act Is apparent. A ventriloquist whose act is almost extraordinary is Marshall Mont gomery, who introduces a number of tricks, notably that of talking and singing while smoking or drinking; also that of conversing while eating a dry cracker. The Fred Ray players present a Ro man burlesque called "The Noblest Roman of Them All." The five jug gling Normans end the bill with a club manipulating act that presents only one new feature, that of passing the gay-colored clubs in a "three-high" po sition. The moving pictures are far from well. The orchestra has as al ways a goodly number of things., best of which is an overture, "Stradella," by Flotow. Grand. BILLED as the big-lettered act this week at the Grand is , Mile. Nadje, "The Jersey Girl."

Samuel General Manager name contorts up and down a staircase, suspended on two lily white digits, as if it were about the pleasantest task in the world. Adding to the effective ness of the ensemble are the rose pink fleshings of the gymnast, which for scantiness would meet with the hearty indorsement of Anna Held. Fox and Ward are exponents of min strelsy, who sing, dance and spring a lot of lively foolishness. Vastly su perior to the average ventriloquist is William E. Whittle, who impersonates Roosevelt in khaki suit and sosodont smile. A wide variety of characters are impersonated by Whittle, and the mani kins are unique, in that they are not stereotyped, and they smoke, draw pictures, and do animated stunts. Boasting of a new plot is a skit given by Mr. and Mrs. James McCann and company, who present Kate McLaurin's comedy, "Uncle Charles of Charleston." A burglar In the guise of a chivalrous Southern colonel, has such taking ways that he ingratiates himself with the time-worn triumvrate, man, wife and lover, breaks up a laison, and robs the trio with such suavity that his crime proves a salvation to the others. Ray W. Snow is a monologuist, who also gives a Cohanesque version of singing. Frank Whitman is a violinist who can play on a fiddle any old way, and at the same time sing and dance. Moving pictures of interest wind off and up the bill. ANOTHER FLOAT PLANNED "Railroad Row" Will Figure In Rose Festival's Industrial Parade. Local "Railroad Row" is planning to enter a monster float In the "Spirit of the Golden West" industrial parade of the next Rose Festival. The subject to be treated will be symbolic of the progress made in the transportation field. While the plan has had Its or igin among the general agents, it is expected that the field -men In both freight and passenger service will as sist in making the float worthy of the progressive spirit of Portland railroad men. With a view of increasing the coast ward movement of tourists over their system during the course 'of the fes tival, the traffic officials of the Ca nadian Pacific have asked the Festival management to supply them with all possible data. Including literature and photographs, in order to give wider publicity of the celebration in the ad vertising matter issued by the com pany. This particular exploitation work has been taken up in person by C. E. Benjamin, general passenger agent of the C. P. R-. with headquarters at Montreal. WHEREJT0 DINE.

Samuel Assistant Manager Day Read, Reflect Act 1 A 200-acre tract of wild land was sold. a. few days ago in the Rogue River country for $200 per acre. It will cost perhaps $50 per acre to clear this land, or say $75 per aero to clear and set to fruit, as it must be set to pears or apples for the owners to make their investment profitable. We will not argue that the purchasers paid too much, for if the same land now had eight or nine-year-old trees on it. it would be worth from $l!5O0 to $3500 per acre. iut compare the price paid with our Banner Acre tract and ask yourself this question: If the Jackson County land is w.orth in a raw state $200 per acre, is not the Banner Acre tracts a better investment at $85 to $125 per acre? Why. the community value alone of Banner Acres is double. The soil m as good, the clearing will cost less than the Jackson County tract, and when set to cherries, it will come in bearing two years sooner than the Jackson tract, and will produce more net profit to the acre. There Is no such buy in the market today as these Banner Acre tracts. F. B. Holbrook Co. Boom 1. Worcester Bldar.
