PATHE PHONOGRAPHS Manufacturers, 'of Overtaxed, "Want Subsidiary Plant to Op crate lor Export Business. George W. Lyle, assistant to the president of the Pathe Freres Phono graph company of New York and Paris, yesterday authorized Sanford Lowcngart, manager of M. Seller & Co., to contract for the manufacture of $3,000,000 worth of Pathe phono graphs in Portland for export to South' America and other foreign lands. M. Seller & Co. are Pathe distributors for the northwest. Authorization was given Mr. Lowen gart after Mr. Lyle had personally in vestigated local port facilities and made inquiries which satisfied htm that the phonographs could be manu factured in Portland and shipped direct to the foreign trade. Before leaving for the east last night. Mr. Lyle expressed the hope that arrangements could be speedily made for the manufacture of the in struments and indicated that the big order would not be the last one placed in this city, if local capital or manu facturers would undertake the work. n this connection it was said that the Pathe company would send ex pert instrument makers to Portland to assist in directing the manufac ture of machines and would see that Pathe motors and other equipment are supplied. Industry Important One. If arrangements can be perfected the establishment of such an indus try would make Portland the big talking machine manufacturing cen ter of the Pacific coast and would add hundreds of thousands of dollars to the city's payroll. "It is a splendid opportunity for industrial Portland," s-aid Mr. Lowen gart last night, "and the city should be proud that an international com pany such as Pathe Freres should select Portland as a base for the manufacture of its instruments. .Jf we are able to place the contract in Portland, the port will benefit through the advertising that the ex port of such an immense flow of ma chines would give." In this connection Mr. Lyle ex plained that the company has defi nitely decided to place a big contract i n .

William and S0 Mary somewhere for the reason that its The Cheney Orchestral Chambers A Distinct Contribution To Music The fundamental acoustic principles of the pipe organ have been adapted to the phonograph in the Cheney Orchestral Chambers. Those chambers in the organ pipes which have made the pipe organ so rich and full add their mellow sweet ness to tones as the Cheney repro duces records. It is a wonderful advance in the art of reproducing music. Connoisseurs assure us that the series of exclusive inventions embodied in the Cheney constitute the greatest improvement since phonographs were invented. Surely they have placed the Cheney in a class apart with tones of un rivalled clarity and pureness. Cheney Period Cabinets in regular and art models are masterpieces, the pride of the most talented furniture craftsmen in the country. CIIENEV TALKING MACHINE COMP eastern factories are working to the limit and yet are unable to supply present demands. Adverdfting Campaign On. This Is particularly true of the American plants, which have Just been instructed to supply not only the American business, but the demands of the South American and British trade as well. Jn addition the com pany has just started a $400,000. ad vertising campaign in America and the big publicity push is expected to roll up orders on an enormous scale. Due to the fact that M. Seller & Co. sold more machines in their ter ritory than any other distributor in proportion to population they were allowed a heavy share in the huge appropriation and the advertising firm of Vincent & Vincent of Port land was given authority to carry on the campaign In the northwest. Mr. Lyle was much impressed with the conditions he found in Portland and declared that this region is in for a long period of prosperity. As for the talking machine industry he summarized it in one sentence "the industry is second in magnitude only to the automobile industr-, and is growing." G. F. Johnson Piano Co: 147-149 Sixth, Bet.

Morrow, Back From France, Reports England and Japan Hurting U. S. Interests. "If President Wilson would tell the American people the plain truth on his tour through the country, he would tell them to prepare for war." Such was the statement made yes terday by L. P. Morrow, 1192 East Taylor street, who has just returned from the war zone, where he had been stationed for nine months as Knights of Columbus secretary. He said Germany is not conquered and will resume war in a short time. England and Japan, Mr. Morrow said, are spreading propaganda to injure American commerce, especially in the far east, both nations seeing in America a dangerous rival on the seas. Conditions in Belgium are better than Mr. Morrow had expected to find them, except in that certain locality that bore the brunt of the German in vasion. American products have been received in large quantities and the crops this year have been enormous. In Germany, along the Rhine, people are prospering, he said. Opposition to the league of nations, Mr. Morrow said, is based upon the belief that treaties drawn at the peace conference are defective and not a proper foundation for a league such as is proposed. Mr. Morrow went to Europe last December with the 2ith infantry, and on arrival was transferred to the con struction department of the Knights ot Columbus. He was stationed at LeMans, and during the nine months he was abroad visited many of the Historic points of that sector. Wasco Fair to Provide Fun. THE DALLES, Or.. Sept. 27. (Spe cial.)

Wright More than 20 years ago I commenced the practice of my profession in Portland and I am not ashamed to meet any patient who has patronized me during that time. In fact, most of the people who came to me in past years still come when they need any dental service. This means satisfactory service or they would have gone elsewhere. I don't claim to be the only dentist in Portland possessing a thorough knowledge of the profession, but I do claim to give as good results as any dentist in this city. I have never exacted exorbitant prices in any case, always being satisfied with a very reasonable fee. Middle-aged or elderly people who need plates are given special attention at this office and all of their work is performed with a gentleness and skill that prevents any unusual disturbance of the nerves. And then the plate when finished fits perfectly, a great comfort and satisfaction. In all branches of dental work you can make no mistake if you entrust me with your work.
