NUMBER S3
St. Johns Chautauqua
The attractions offered during
the coming Chautauqua week
apparently fill all the require
ments of Reconstruction davs.
Many people prominent in
American life are scheduled for
tho discussion of' our delicate
after the war problems. The
entertainment end of the pro
gram is Btronfjand well balanced
und the musical features seem
to bo even above the regular
nigh standards always maintain
od by the Chautauqua. Three of
the principal lecturers of the
week will be Ida M. Tarbell,
Private Peat and Edward l
P. Trefz. Ida M. Tarboll. comes
to the West directly from Paris
where for several months sho
has been reporting the events of
tho Peace Conference for a
syndicate of metropolitan dailies.
Ilor appcaranco cn the Chau
tauqua this summer will Do one
of tho outstanding lecture events
of tho year. Privato Peat, tho
famous littlo Canadian author.
lecturer and movie star of his
own film, is coming with hia
famous story, "Two Years in
Hell and H.ick with a Smiln."
Ho is undoubtedly tho best
known war lecturer of tho plat
form and tho announcement of
his Chautauqua lecture tour is
causing n great deal of interest
everywhere. Edward F. Trefz,
formerly assistant to Hoover and
memborof tho American Food
Mission to Europe, is scheduled
for tho second night. Trefz
was formerly organizer and field
secretary of tho National Cham
ber of Commerces in Washington
and is rated as ono of tho most
powerful speakers on tho plat
form. His lecture on Recon
struction is of particular interest
to businessmen becauso Trefz is
ono of the recognized authorities
on commercial problems.
Other well known lecturers
are Dr. Arthur D. Carpentoj,
nstrononicr and scientist; Mi6s
R. Louiso Fitch, discussing
Reconstruction problems umong

ort C. McCrcdie, presenting
women's sphere in America un
der tho now ordor of things;
M. L. Mellinger, sponking on
Mexican problems; Dr. Elliott
A. Hoy I, with a splendid in
spirational appeal; Dr. Joseph
Clare, tho "Pastor of Petro
grad," who tells tho story of tho
Russian Revolution as he saw
it in Russia, and Horny Warren
Poor, expert photographer, with
an illustrated lecture on the
closing days of tho war and tho
dawn of peace.
Tho big musical feature of
tho week will bo the Czech
Solovak Rand under tho direc
tion of Jatoslav Cimera. They
will presont two big programs
on tho fifth day, supplemented
in the evening by Madam Helen
Oafarelli, of Chicago opera fame.
Eastern reports on this musical
organization trom plucky little
Bohemia, indicate that a great
musical treat awaits all lovers
of band music.
Another unusual musical event
lies in tho coming of Mary Adel
Hays, coloratura soprano of
New York, assisted by her Re
cital Artists. Miss Hays has
ono of the great coloratura
voices of the country. Other
musical companies of promin
ence at Chautauqua will be the
McDonough Eagleston Company
who open the week in a charm
ing musical fun program; Fillion
Concert Party, headed by Ferin
and Fillion the French violinist;
the Reniers, two talented musi
cal entertainers, and the Apollos
Concert Company, a familiar
group in tho concert world.
On the third night comes an
entertainment quite exceptional
and unusual, Edwin M, Whit
ney, of Boston, famous interpre
ter of plays, will present "Turn
to the Right," the great metro
politan success. Mr. Whitney
has the exclusive monologue
rights from the author, Win
chell Smith. Another enter
tainer who will make many
friends at Chautauqua will be
Elise Mae Gordon, who excels
as an impersonator of familiar
characters.
The children have not been for
gotten this year. In fact, more
attention is being paid to the
Junior Chautauqua this season
than ever before. Directors of
the Junior work have been in
training in Chicago all during
the winter and spring and bring
for the "kiddies" a pageant
that is timely and purposeful,

Prosperity for Lumber
The most sanguine prediction
of prospcrty for tho lumber in
dustry nro confirmed as to tho
present time by the editor of
I the American Lumberman, who
has been touring the southern
field. He forsees "a season of
heavy demand at high prices.,"
for "tho greatest building boom
in history is sweeping over the
country, with the country four
years behind in its normal bu'ld
ing programme. Railroads are
coming into the market for large
quantities of ties and other mat
rial. There is already apparent
an unusally heavy demand for
lumber for export, which would
developo tremendously in vol
ume if transportation facilities
were available and ocean rat's
more reasonable. Tho demand
is so urgent that the question of
iinuu uuus nor. enier imo trans
actions ho much as the question
of delivery."
Of tho Pacific coast ho says:
"Mills on the west coast are
largely oversold, stocks arc not
up to normal and in that terri
tory tho inevitable result has
followed of rapid increase In
market prices, the advances in
west coast lumber in fact within
recent days hoving been even
more spoctncular than those in
southern nino and other woods.
This condition of tho lumber
industry means nrosnerltv for
the Pacific northwest, forlumberl
is the greatest staple product
of this section. Lumber and
wood working employ 50 per
cent of the industrial labor of
Oregon, and are a sourco of pro
fit to every other industry.
There is no reason to expect
any material abatement of this
wnvo of prosperity. Not only
nro thoro arrears of building to
mnko good, but tho general ex
pansion of industry and increase
of wealth will swell tho total of
current building. Reconstruc
tion in Europe will absorb a
large part of tho American nro-
duct, erection of million work
men's dwellings in Britain will
consume a great quantity, and
destruction of French forests
cause more lumber to be import
ed. When Russia settles down.
it will supply much of tho Euro
pean demand, but several years
will pass boforo it can do its
part.
Tho timber of the m dd e
west is faat becoming exhausted
and tho best days of the south
ern forests will soon bo past.
To an increasing degree tho
main reliance of both domestic
and foreign markets must be tho
Douglas fir. Tho eastern con-
stTmers learned moro about the
merits of thnt lumber when their
wood shin yards had to send
west for big timbers and when
their railroads called for so many
ties that wood shins by tho
score had to be used in carry ng
them. We are just beginning to
get tho benefit of the Panama
canal as a means of chean. direct
shipment to tho Atlantic coast.
It also opens to us nil the
countries around tho Carribean
sea. Oregonian.

The Brave Soldier Boy
Dedicated to Claud Hanks.
What shall be dono unto the
Soldier Boy,
Whom all delight to praise,
Who bared his breast to the
foeman's steel
In the war's most gloomy
days
Who fought and bled in Free
dom's cause,
His snirit true and brave.
And marched against tho world's
outlaws
Democracy to save.
For three long years ho "Car-
r ed On."
'Gainst tho foe who would not
yield
Until he saw tho victory won,
On Flandcr's gory field.
From night till morn, from
sun 'til sun.
'Midst roar of shot and shell.
He helped to crush the terrible
Hun
And there his comrades fell.
The war is over and peace has
come,
We wait our boy's return,
To meet his dearest loving ones
Who henrts within them burn.
Then gather we 'round tho fes
tive board, -Make
ready for tho feast.
There's naught too good for the
Soldier Lad
And he's the honored guest.
Thus 'twill bo dono unto the
Soldier Hoy,
Who followed so bravo and
true.

Dedicated to Mr. and Mrs.

goro: On a bright Sunday afternoon
On tho twenty-second day of
June
When just across the way,
hveryone was so gay ;
For on that day a maiden fair
Was waiting to wed her laddie
there.
The guests began to arrivo,
From near and from far
Brothers and sisters, did arrive,
borne afoot and some- in a car.
Aunts and uncles and relatives
galore.
Soldiers and sailors and more.
Soon a crowd about tho house
gathered
On tho porch and in the yard
Bcallorcd.
A gay hum of happy voices
heard
And sounds of laughter: My
wordl
Moro guests a coming down the
street
Tripping the dusty road with
dainty feet.
Then along comes tho preacher,
ins who, and a lriorid or
teacher.
boon down me walk a woman

Then running, to tho groom nB
ho hurries.
For ho wouldn't be found late
Not on this of all dates.
It's nearly tho hour four by his
watcli
When soft echoes of tho wedding
march,
As each heart beats high, here
comes the bride:
Her handsomo sailor by her Hide.
Tho "Maid of Honor" follows no
grand.
With a soldier lad as 'best
man."

Carnations white, her flowers
you bet,
The Maid in a dress of apricot
hue
With (lowers of a wonderful
blue
Rooms bedecked with flowers
and such
Just to bo there you'd given
much.
Now solemn voices promise to
"obey"
Yes, right now, and ovory day.
"f is over and with kisses they
greet her.
And soon comes ono from tho
preacher.
Than refreshments are served
a jolly way
Tis not one will forget that
day.
Time swiftly glides, as ebbs tho
day:
And n happy couple soon motor

To the train: thnt will speed.
I'arnway to tho south it will
load:
To tho land of Romance and
Love.
And may blessings be theirs
from Above.
