It is this dreamy Burns and everybody loves old music, which breathes the romance of the highland and the mystery of the dell, that has made the Anglo-Saxon world .one; the kinship brought about by the singing and playing of the songs of Scotland is a kinship that can never be severed. During the great American Civil War oftentimes the boys in blue would be camped on one side of a stream, the men in gray on the other. In the evening both armies would vie with each other in singing the songs of the North and those of the South; then there would be a lull, and someone would start "Annie Lau rie" or "Blue Bell." Instantly the spirit of war would be forgotten and both sides would join In the old songs that make the whole world kin. It is these songs that the Lady Kil ties Band play better than any other organization now touring America.

At the next meet ing Ibsen and Grieg will be discussed WINSTOCK SCORES FOSTER College Head Criticised for Attacking Motion Pictures. "I am amazed," said Melvin G. Win stock yesterday, "to find President Foster, of Reed College, joining the small procession of indiscriminate critics of moti&n picture entertain ment. "When he classifies the average mo tion picture snow with dancehalls, cabaret-cafes and public -amusement parks, he shows that he is either ex ceedingly thoughtless or that he is ig norant o"f the subject. "Bad pictures are few. Obscene or vulgar pictures are no longer made. If there comes a production which is of doubtful character it receives the con demnation of the censorship board. "At a time when states are appro priating money for the use of pictures in public education and when colleges are utilizing them for the benefit of earnest students, it seems to me that it is a very inappropriate time for the president of a college to give utter ance to so unjust a criticism. "Sunday in one of the largest churches in thl3 city, a religious sub ject was presented while the sermon was being delivered, and I am in formed that it drew the largest audi ence which ever crowded into that edifice." TICKETS BOUGHT ON TIME Jacolis Says Many Germans Are Sav ing to Come Here. "Thousands of persons in Germany are buying steamship tickets on the installment plan, and will come to the Pacific Coast after the Panama Canal is opened in 1915," said Fred A- Jacobs, of the Fred A. Jacobs Company, last night. Mr. Jacobs has' just returned from a tour of investigation of Euro pean financial conditions, and particu larly the English plan of selling work ingmen's homes on installments. "In all the towns I visited," he de clared, "the people showed a great in terest in this country. They have a surprising knowledge of it, too. "Lloyd-George, in a speech a few days ago, declared that the English government must furnish homes to the working people at a moderate expense. "I was much interested in the back-to-the-soil movement in England. You know there are 500,000 fewer farmers in England than there were 50 years ago. "It is an interesting fact that there are 200 towns in Germany that pay no taxes." Mr. Jacobs visited France, England, Germany, Scotland and Belgium. Youths Get Short Terms. Earl Smith and Bert Jackson, each 20 years old, received sentences of only six months each in the County Jail Monday on a charge of robbing the Anlauf postofflce. because they really did not intend to commit the robbery, but yielded to temptation after entering the store to buy some tobacco.

C5 3 INFORMER IS ARRESTED AFTER FILIXG CHARGE WOMAN' HELD FOR VAGRANCY. Accusation of Disorderly Conduct Against Women in Hart Hotel Reacts. For the first time in nearly three years that she has maintained houses of uncertain repute in Portland, Annie Gellette, known in police circles as a stool-pigeon, faced a court Monday, when she appeared before Municipal Judge Stevenson, charged with vag rancy. Her case was set for Thursday. The arrest of the Gellette woman came shortly after she had made a sim ilar complaint against Marie Hawkins. The Gellette woman, Marie Hawkins and Jennie' Huff all live in the Hart Hotel, at Fifth and Burnside streets, where Mrs. Hawkins also keeps a o- months-old baby. Late Saturday night the Gellette woman, who had been a source of considerable information to the police, informed Police Sergeant Harms and Captain Riley that Mrs. Hawkins was living in a disorderly manner in the house, and she also in volved Mrs. H. Anderson, proprietor of the place. Both were arrested, and when they were lodged in jail they started a return fire of information against Mrs. Gellette. Mrs. Gellette gave additional infor mation to the police Sunday night, and declared so emphatically that the place in which she was living was a disor derly house that Captain Riley ordered her arrest as a vagrant, under the city ordinance which says that an inmate of a disorderly house l a vagrant. Mrs. Gellette immediately called up Police Captain Slover on the telephone. asking him to furnish bail. This he failed to do, but an attorney who soon appea-ed promised Municipal Judge Stcver.son that he would produce the two women in court, and they were released. Mrs. Gellette's reputed hold upon the police of the last administration was considered so strong that when Kena Moorman, a friend of hers, was ar rested for disorderly conduct in the South Portland confectionery of Pa trolman P. C. Anderson, she was imme diately released, her name expunged There are two kinds of pet ticoats the Eppo and the other kind! The great point of difference is that the is procurable at a price and in a range of modish shades and mater ials that enables the woman of moderate means to match up the color schemes of her gowns with a petticoat that harmonizes in shade, texture and design. This is a little style point that careful women appreciate.

PRAYER FIGURES IN COURT Fight Over Effects Held for Room Rent Is Ended. A framed copy of the Lord's prayer and her marriage certificate figured strongly in a fight which Julia A. Mason, formerly residing at the Tarn hill House, Park and Yamhill streets! has been waging for several days to get possession of goods which she says she left in the place two years ago, and which ended yesterday. . Mrs. Mason first applied for a search warrant in the District Court, alleging that Julia R. Millard, living at Sixty fifth avenue and -vSixtv-second street, had the goods in her possession. She alleged that when she left the Yamhill House two years ago she left the trunk in lieu of a board bill, and that in the several interchanges of management since that time the trunk was taken home by Mrs. Millard when Mrs. Millard disposed of the lodging-house. She also swore out a similar war rant in Municipal Court, and Patrol man Miller served the warrant. Of the list of articles which she enumerated he found only one bed spread. This Judge Stevenson returned to Mrs. Millard after he had heard the case, saying it was little, in the face of the balance of 915 on the bill. '1 he framed prayer, marriage certificate and otfier goods, it was testified, had beer, returned to Mrs. Mason since she began suit.
