Tint Rkvihw In Portland, Oregon, as mall matter of the second class under the Act of Con gress of March 3, 1879, "The James John High covered use f with Klory in the football field this fall, winding up its splendid record with a crushing defeat administered to the Jefferson eleven Monday after noon.

If this is true, the moving picture concerns must linve more money than they well know what to do with. A far better plan would bo to pay less for "Htars" so that the general public could gain admission to the theatres at less cost. At loast the production compan ies should absorb the war taxos. if they have so much money to spend in such lavish fashion. r There is a splendid opening in St. Johns for a modern and uptodate laundry plant. St. Johns is probably the largest place in the United States with out a modem laundry. The oxponae involved in wear and tear and time consumed in transporting the laundry of this town to distant sections of Port land is no small item. And there should bo no necessity for it. There is enough work in St. JohtiM to keep a good sized lau dry going constantly. Hut in order to succeed it must be fully u(iii))od with the latest ma chinery and use nothing but skilled workmen. And in order to cut out useless expense should bo located on top of the hill in the business district. Certainly St. Johns should have a laundry of modern equipment.
