Several clergymen and students from "Washington High and St. Johns High School filled the Heilis Theater yes terday morning: to hear rehearsed the music that will be played by the Port land Symphony Orchestra at that the ater, in its regular concert tomorrow. So admirable was the behavior of the young: folks, so wrapt was their at tention to the rendition of the higrh class music that the lesson was one in decorum for the attention of an adult audience. George Jeffery was conductor, and he said: "The orchestra is pleased especially at the attendance of its gruests of honor, clergymen of this city. We feel that their attendance evidences an under standing of our purposes. Our con certs are arranged for Sunday after noons, so that they will In no way con flict with church work Sunday nights. We select only the best kind of music and are humbly striving to Inspire the community to better thoughts and up lifting diversion. In this way we hope to show that our work supplements, or at least does not intrude upon the good work of our honored fruests." The music selected was well played and the rendition much applauded.

Representatives from all civic and commercial organizations of Portland and many business men not members of the organized bodies will attend a luncheon at the Commercial Club, un der tho auspices of the Chamber of Commerce, at 12:15 o'clock Monday, to organize to support the movement for the improvement of the Columbia River bar.

PENSION LAW IGNORED MARION COUNTY COURT .DOES NOT PROVIDE FOR WIDOWS. Jurist Saya Act Makei Unfair Distinc tion and Will Not Be Pnt Into Effect Unless Tribunals Order It. SALEM, Or., Jan. 10. (Special.) "We have not put the widows' pension law Into operation in this county and do not Intend to do so unless compelled to by the courts," Bald County Judge Bushey, of Marlon County, today. "We do not believe the results under the new law would be as satisfactory as under the old one through which we are taking care of the poor of the county. One reason for the court's op position to the law Is that It makes un fair distinctions between women who have children and those without them. Another reason is that the plan for giving aid provided in the act would, in our opinion, cause many women and children who could do something for themselves, virtually to become help less in that line. "For Instance, under the old poor law we recently provided for a half dozen poor families; took care of their Immediate wants, and soon members of them found employment and became self-sustaining. Under the widows' pension law. the families would have become pensioners with no incentive to do anything for themselves. "I believe at least BOO persons have made application for assistance under the new act. Our Investigations proved that some of them had money and oth ers had farms. It is true the farms in most Instances were mismanaged and yielded nothing, but It is not the duty of the county to take care of persons who have property."
