IV. H. BOHNENKAMP CO NICE VIEWS COMMERCIAL CLUB LECTURE AT THE SCENIC ISTEBTA1MSG Lecturer Gifts Large Audience Be LIghtfal IntertainaienL For two hours last evening F. W. Prlc entertained a packed house at the Scenic theatre with some of the most beautiful and Inspiring scenes ever thrown on a canvas In this city. In Introducing the speaker, President Collier of the Commercial Club stated that the lecture had been planned for the Northern Pacific route but Gen eral Superintendent .McMurray, O'Neil and Van de Water had induced him to accept their offer and travel' over the O. R. & N., on his way to the east Mr. Price opened up with some lo cal scenes In which he showed off even to the surprise of old timers In La Grande the possibilities In apple culture, beet culture, the sheep and grain growing industries. He said that everv fummnnitr w Orcscs i Liv ing'to build itself up. "Advertising 1s like water for Irrigation purposes. It must be scattered well and given plen ty of time to soak In." When the motion pictures of the trip from Portland to The Dalles were started, frequent exclamations of ad miration were heard over the audience as some scene that "I remember-that place," was hurled into view by the machine. The salmon cannery, the Rooster Rocks, the Bridalveil Falls, the Cascade Locks, each in Its turn was thrown upon the canvas with a clearness that almost excells one'B actual view from the car windows. Next came a few California scenes and a general statement of the size and scope of the state, showing a coast line of 400 miles and an area four times as great as that of the state of New York. Then the machine was switched again upon Portland a glowing tribute to the Rose City and views in which the lecturer pays which he said the Lewis & Clark Ex position first brought Into promlnance and the A. Y . P. boosted as much as it boosted Seattle. The last hour was exclusively spent with California's wonders; mountains, canyons, rivers, etc. The magic resto ration of San Francisco into "a city far superior to the first one" was al 8o shown. From La Grande the lec turer will "work his way eastward to show the people there the wonders of the west. The Commercial Club feels Indebt ed to Mr. Gardinelr for lending them the use of the theatre for the lecture. This action saved considerable ex pense for the club.
