THE OREGON LIFE A MODEL Every Oregonian has good reason to feel proud of the fact that experts consider the methods of Oregon . Ute Insurance Company so perfect, that Ufa insurance companies starting along- clean and proper Unea take Oregon Life as a worthy pattern. The vice-presi dent of a recently organised W lsconsln company, in a letter to Manager Sam uel, says: "Oregon Life has been aln guiarly successful among the many re cently organized companies, and being ambitious to proceed along similarly careful and conservative lines we would esteem It a favor if you would briefly outline your practice."

I ACK THE GIANT KILLER Is at the J Orpheum this week and a chorus of youngsters, shrill voices In excited com ment, rose from Ul sides of the house yesterday when the seven-leagued boots and the giant in them stepped out onto the stage. He is George Augur, and the bill says he is the tallest actor on earth. According to the tape maasure he is 8 feet and 2 Inches tall. He tells English Joke with dropped "altches" in a voice that emanates seemingly from his boots. With a handful of llllputlan players, Mr. Augur enacts a modern version of the old fairy story of Jack and the Giant Killer." Jack, be It known. Is some ac tor, a gay and happy-faced small person, who sings and chatter and dances de lightfully. He Is Ernest Rommel and Is "the smallest comedian on earth," so say the bills. Then there's Daisy Robinson, who is about as big as a minute, and Sylvia Hearne, an average-size actress, who presumably serves as a means of com parison between the two extremes, the dwarf and the giant. Another popular act is "Holding out," a comedy presented by Harry and Jessie Hayward. A disgusted actor, gone broke trying to break into vaudeville, and his wife who optimistically holds out, living "In hopes," are the persons concerned. The peep into the parlor rooming-house, the domestic confidences and arguments, the preparations of a meal on the In verted electric flatlron, and gas-jet, all the little Inttmaciea of the home hearth are truly depicted. Two dexterous cyclers are Palfrey and Barton. A departure from the time honored variations of the acrobatic cycling act Is Barton's introduction of a Spanish fandango and a spirited Cakewalk while whirling nonchalantly on one wheel. The Hamllns also come In couples. Richard and Louise. They are novelty dancers of the better brand. They call themselves tha "melody man and the maid In brown." For that matter the melody Is a minus quantity, since neither can sing, but they certainly can terpsl cbore. Another dancing aet Is given by a versatile team, Bert Kalmar and Jessie Brown. Lithe and limber and especially full of grace are the beautiful dances of these two clever people. Kalmar, in the guise of a naturalist, sings -"Bugs," and dances accordingly. Miss Brown presents many dances, rang ing In variety from the difficult toe steps to the always picturesque Highland Fling. The Bison City Four, all possess splen did singing voices, and 'were applauded vociferously for their contribution of hatmony. Some evil spirit has, how ever, prompted them to Inject a moss covered bit of horse-play and alleged comedy Into the act. Vic Mllo, the first tenor, has a beautiful clear voice, and Is of himself enough comedian to serve all purposes. Thai others. Frank Glrard. tenor; Richard Hale, baritone, and Ed Roscoe, basso, each possesses a well- trained and admirable voice. A comedy act closes the bill. The Pierrots give a horizontal-bar and gym- nastlo performance. Interspersed freely with comedy of the muta sort. A fairy tale and the bromide mother-in-law story are blographed for the finale. plain I common seose An acre of land Is equal to abont six lots 60x100, after allowing for ordinary streets. There are suburban lots for sale around Port land as low as 1100 each perhaps. But they are far out, and more than likely not very choice. To get a fairly good suburban build ing site you must pay from $350 to $500 for a single lot. Now, that Is from IlilOO to $3000 an acre, and yet we can sell you a 6-acre tract In Banner Acres for $500, or the very sightllest for $825. And there are no choicer building sites around Portland than Ban ner Acres. Five acres bought now and utilized as a home will In a few years leave you an acre for a horns site and the other four acres will pay for all and give you a large profit. Let ua show you. F. B.

Grand. quartet always takes with a Port land audience and the ona that war bles familiar melodies at the Grand Theater this week Is no exception to the rule. It Is composed of four men, one black face, called Jones. Pickett, Murray and Drury, and won more recalls than any others of the singers did, for In almost every act there Is atnglr.g. The only ex ceptton to this rule Is the Fassio trio. The eixong man spends most of nts time doing stunts on a flight of stairs. Said stunta are not of the usual variety and. In most caees. exceedingly difficult. The featured act la billed as "Violet Allen and company." with Harry Stanley, presenting "Keeping an Appointment," It la to be hoped that no one will ever be so hard cut as to have to appear in dunlicate wardrobe that the principals In this original farce manufactured on short notice. Their efforts won many a laugn. A clever duo are James McCormack and a daintily dressed little maiden called Eleanor Irving. They give a parcel of sonas. such as "Funny Face," and dances and call It "Flirtology." Another duo are Bell and Richards who give a musical act Introducing several pleasing electrical effects. In their turn they use many kinds of Instruments and the woman plays the xylophone, among other things, but she can't beat the orchestra drummer who performed several weeka ago. The act Is costumed well. Mary Ann Brown is not nearly as plain as her name would Indicate. She was laboring with a severe cold yesterday, which Impaired her songs greatly. Two films are thrown in for good measure, taking one from India to Russia. RATE WAR. The Steamer Washington will sail for San Francisco. Thursday, August 25th. Reservations and tickets at office.
