G THE MORNING- OREGONIAN, SATURDAY, AUGUST 28, 1920 HUGGING IN PL1B1LC NOWOLD-FASHIONED Dancing Masters Hold Wake for Jazz in New York. ASSOCIATION MEETS HERE "Blue Danube" Comes Into Its Own Again; Waltz, Triangle One-Step Will Trevail This Winter. NEW TORK. Aug. 27. (Special.) The dancing masters will close their annual convention here tomorrow and rack their patent-leather pumps, lace frilled trousers and the rest of the props. They -will go west to attend a post-convention ;ow-wow In Port land, Or. The reBult of this year's conven tion of the American National Asso ciation of Masters of Dancing may be summed up in four words: "Nix on the jazz." Public Hnga-ina- Squashed. Wrinkly, squirming jazzes have been eradicated, eliminated, squashed, squelched and rendered null and void. A quieter method has been devised for hugging a girl in public. If you want to be au fait eliminate the pep and dance the way they did it back in the days of yore. Men who have sedentary natures and who hate to change their posi tions very much will be interested to know that the "Blue Danube" stuff has come into its own again. The chic waltz and the triangle one-step, together with the polonaise moderne, whatever that is, will be the prevail ing dances next winter in the trot tcries de luxe. You'll Be -Vronir If Vou Ho. Of course, if you'd rather be wrong than president, you can go right on doing the catstep and the cockroach dive and the camel glide and the ele phant nestle and the rhinoceros dip and the dromedary - wiggle and the lame goose bend. But remember this: Tou do them -without the sanction of the American National Association of Masters of Xancing, which, any way you take it, is a serious consideration. All terpsichorean manifestations on which have been bestowed the names of animals are taboo, the only excep tion to this being the fox trot, and there's a reason. The fox trot was so called for a Mr. Fox and not the sly animal that bears the name. Now you've learned something, haven't you? DESPITE THE SHOWERS,.

GOVERNMENT SPRUC JAN I ov CJ us METHODIST BA" ATTACKED Publisher Risks Membership to Fight Church Dance Edict. NEW YORK, Aug. 27. The recrea tion rules of the Methodist church w hich bar dancing and theater going to its members were attacked by J. Henry Smythe Jr., a New York pub lisher, speaking today at the conven tion of the National Association of Dancing Masters. "I have been making this fight for the good of the Methodist church," naid Mr. Smythe. "1 am a Methodist. My father. Rev. James Henry Smythe . of Philadelphia, has preacljed before Bix presidents and indirectly converted Billy Sunday. Convinced that the rec reation rules keep people out of Methodism. I decided to try to change the book of discipline. John Wes ley's wise dictum should be sufficient r 'avoid the taking of such diversion as cannot be used in the name of the Lord Jesus.' I am in this fight as long as I live, even if it costs my thurchnembership." 2 DIVORCE StJITS FILED William J. Thien Says Wife Stayed Out All "ight and Deserted Him. OREGON CITY, Or., Aug. 27.

ANE COWL says that possibly she wes her present presence among s to the campaign being waged by western theatrical managers with New York. booking managers in which the former assert themselves empha tically in the claim that nothing ails theatrical business on this coast if only the New York producers will send us out their stars and number one companies. "To whatever I owe my visit, I am thankful," she said yesterday. "It is the first time 1 have ever been in this part of the country and I am enjoying every second of my stay. Even the rain today cannot dampen my enthusiasm. We have to see the wet skies occasionally jo make us remember the sunshine. "I have always' felt that I wanted to be a citizen of the world." resumed Miss Cowl, "but the determination had never become a reality until I started on this tour. You see, I am booked to play in England next spring, and I can never let it be said that I played in England or in any tountry other than America before I had played in all the corners of my own native land. I have viaited England, but I have never played there. Stay In Chicago Depends, "I am taking this play into Chicago in October and the length of our stay there will determine just when we sail for England. It is all on the knees of the gods which in this in stance is the Whicago public if they like me in 'Smilin' Through.'" She paused and smiled, and 1 wondered if anybody lived who wouldn't like Jane Cowl when she herself was smilin' through her wonderful eyes. They are the sort poet& write about, a deep rare golden brown, with lights and shadows and pictures and mem ories and visions and understanding, n' everything in them. Her lips begin a sentence and her eyes complete it, cross the "ts," and put in the punctua tion marks. For the benefit of the correspond ent, who wrote us to ask. Miss Cowl is very much lovelier sitting across a able from one than she is on "the stage. This is one instance wherein makeup does not emphasize her harms. " Maxine Elliott is another instance. Julia Marlowe another, and Mrs. Pat- ick Campbell another. Like Jane Cowl, they are all beautiful women. nd ' putting more carmine on their cheeks or shadowing eyes already su perb or powdering an already perfect nd snowy throat is another case of refining gold or painting the lily. Jane cowl says that Smilin' Through" is spiritualistic propaganda in the same sense that Macbeth was play on witchcraft because it had hree ghosts in it. 'It is a play of the hour," she said. "The big war ook so many lovely boys away from life, suddenly cut off with no way of saying good-bye to the dear ones they left, that sorrowing souls all over the world turned to whatever consolation ffered. In thousands of cases it was spiritism, and a wave of research and investigation is sweeping the country. 1 cannot speak for anyone but Jane Cowl. I know that life persists fter death. My wonderful mother. tation by the Americanism commis ion of the American Legion. The legion proposes to establish headquarters in New York, using its many post headquarters throughout he country as branches to carry on Americanization work among immi grants. These plans seek to have the immi gration, authorities release immi grants to the commission when ad mitted.' From then on all immigrants would become charges of the legion, which would see to it that they were prop erly Informed of conditions in dls- ricts in which they planned to set tle. Through local posts, an effective system of settlement work would be established wherever there is a colony of foreign-born people. Commissioner Wallis said the plan met with his approval and he would confer with Secretary of Labor Wil son. FIRE ROUSES CHINATOWN maze Believed Due to Blanket Hunt by Candlelight. Police headquarters was filled with smoke last night by a fire which broke out in a Chinese lodging-house at 63',i Second street. The damage was about IS00. J500 of which was due to water on the stock of the Tong uuck Chung company, which owns drug store at 65 Second street. The blaze, which is believed to have been started by a Chinaman hunting blankets with a- candle, created an uproar in Chinatown. Several elec trie fire gongs started ringrinc. and the Chinese rushed out of their homes in various stages of dishabille. Fire men had difficulty in finding the fire, which. was in the middle of the block and accessible only by threading labyrinth of corridors. COX DRY, SAYS SPEAKER Nominee Said to Be First to En force Prohibition in Ohio. The widespread belief that the dem ocratic presidential nominee. Gover nor James M. Cox, has "wet" inclina tions is erroneous, according to Ogles by Young, speaking before 30 mem bers of the Cox-Roosevelt club at the central library last night. The speaker asserted that Cfoverno Cox was the first executive in Ohi who had the courage to enforce th Sunday closing act in that state, and that he did so in spite of bitter oppo eition from the saloon and liquor in torests. Other speakers on- the programm were H. J. Roberts and Secretary aia lone of. the Cox-Roosevelt club. HOLDINGS ARE SOLD f ? , ?

I have never beheld her nor had what are called demonstrations, I have no tan gible proof of what I say, so that I could explain to a non-believer, and yet I feel her near me and she is con stantly with me. I should never have to have my mother knock on a wall, ring a bell or make a table parade across a room to make her presence known. I only know that the kindly thing that bonded my mother to me is unbroken and that I shall see her again: Further than that I cannot go, -I dare not presume. Life does not cease with this transition, this epi sode we name death." . Player Al Is -Writer. In collaboration with Jane Murfin, Jane Cowl has written four plays. Three of them "Daybreak," "Lilac Time" and "Information, Please" have been produced. She writes at whatever odd moments she can take from rehearsals and directing, for Miss Cowl rehearses her com-pai-.y every so often, trying out new lines or improving ' bits of business that suggest themselves to her. She did all the lighting 1 effects and scenic novelties in "Smilin Through," and directed the company as well. . The fourth play, a serious piece, has not been named, but will be named and produced this fall. She used, to write little poems and stories to fill in financial gaps whe"n she was starting her career. Miss Cowl says: "If I could ask of the gods any gift, it. would not be fame, or beauty, or wealth, but sincerity. Faith, hope and charity are a great triumvirate of qualities, but to my way of thinking the greatest of these is sincerity. My personal motto, which I have framed in my mind. Is that splendid admonition 'To thine own self be true and it must follow as the night the day, thou canst not then be false to any man." EASTERN MEN INVOLVED I MM V 77lF.fJy. 2T PRIZE, CELIA 1Z . 1.

The re ported sale of the property, mill and railroad was verified by the repre sentatives of the Spruce Production division yesterday, and also by the firm of Hill & Scritsmier, local tim ber dealers. The purchasers are east ern capitalists, it was announced, whose identity will not be given out for some time and Hill & Scritsmier also are heavily interested in the pur chase.

The tract is in Lincoln county near Yaquina bay and would have been one of the largest of "the spruce pro duction units- if it had been carried to completion. In addition to the land and timber there is the Toledo mill, built by the government and nearly ready for op eration. This mill, which . will have a capacity for 250,000 feet a day, was almost completed when the armistice was signed and less than another month would have seen it in opera tion if the war had continued. The Alsea-Southern railroad, also includ ed in the purchase, connects the tim ber tract with the Yaquina Northern and the Southern Pacific railroads. It is 23.4 miles in length, with another two and a half miles of spurs and considerable grade. The railroad is of standard construction and thoroughly equipped throughout its length.

Immediate steps will be taken to get the plant at Toledo in operation and begin the development of the property, said Mr. Scritsmier, and he placed January 1 as the probable date for the beginning of timber p'ting, Mr. Scritsmier declined 'to give the names of eastern capitalists interested with himself and Mr. Hill in the proj ect, but said they would be announced within a short time. . He denied that the Kuhn syndicate of Pittsburg. Pa., bad any connection with the trans action, as had been rumored. As soon as the mill has been completed and all steps necessary for the develop ment of the tract carried out, an op erating company with sufficient cap ital to handle such a large undertak ing will be formed and incorporated. Tvro Projects Left. The sale of the project leaves but two of the big government spruce de velopments in the northwest to be disposed of by the Spruce Prjduclion corporation, one in this state in Ein coln county embracing a large tract of timber and the Yaquina railroad, ten miles in length, and the other in the peninsula district of Washington including 36 miles of railroad and a large body of timber and mills in the vicinity of Port Angeles.

"After ten years of the worst sort of health Tanlac has put me back in the very pink of condition," was the statement made recently hy A. T Shell, car Inspector for the Northern Pacific railway, residing at 512 East Second avenue, Spokane, Wash. "It was back in 1910 that my stom ach first began to bother me and then other troubles set in and pulled me down until I had about come to the conclusion that I could never get well. I didn't eat anything worth talking about, in fact, I had reached the point where I was nearly afraid to eat, for it looked like every bite soured on my stomach and caused me to suffer terribly with indigestion. I was bothered a lot with gas and bloating and at times my breath was so short I had to fight for air. My kidneys were out of order and I had sharp pains all through my back. I was constipated all the time and had awful headaches and dizzy spells. My nerves finally became affected and I got so I could not sleep well. I be gan to lose weight, and got so weak and run-down I couldn't half work. "But I'm a different man from that now, for Tanlac has put me in fine shape and t feel strong and healthy like I used to years ago. I' have the finest kind of appetite and can cat anything anybody else can without it bothering me in the least. My kid neys don't worry me at all now and the pains have all gone from my back. I have been relieved of consti pation and haven't had a headache or dizzy spell since I started taking Tan lac. My nerves are good and steady and I sleep like a top now. X have picked up in weight and call my self a well and sound man once more." Tanlac is sold in Portland by the Owl Drug Co. Adv. M'-JJi- NOW PLAYING I VIOLA OA!
