view VOLUME 16 ST. JOHNS, PORTLAND, OREGON, FRIDAY, JUNE 11, 1920. NUMBER 31 St. Johns The first announcement of the 1920 Chautauqua program in dicates that the attractions to bo presented arc of the same high standard which has character ized Ellison-Whito programs in the past. Music, lecture and entertainment lovers apparently have much in store for them durintr the week of July 20-26 the chautauqua dates for St. Johns. Lecturers of prominence arc: Judge George D. Alden of Massachusetts; Judgo Fred G. Bale of Ohio; Carlton Chamber layne, prominent editor of New York; Julius Caesar Nypho. n brilliant young Atnoninn with a spectacular costumed lecture on the Orient; G. Whitfield Ray, F. R. G. S., for fourteen years on exploration work in South Americu, and E. B. Fish, tho famed foe of agitators in the Northwest. A feature at traction which vnries from the regular lino of Chautauqua ovents is the production of the big New York Dramatic success, "Kindling." by tho Maurice Browne Players on tho fifth night. After several years of band-concerts this will undoubt edly be a welcomo change to most Chautauqua "fan 3." Tho music gives promise of an interesting week. Mary Adol Hays, the Now York so- E ratio whom Ellison-White rought to the South and West in 1919, is to return again. This year she comes us soloist witli Raul Porcira, tho Portugese violinist and his string Quintet. An outstanding musical ovent rests in the announcement of tho Royal Welsh Lady Singers of Wales, Great Britain. This com pany has toured tho world and is a sterling singing organization. On tho second day n native Alaskan girl who has set the musical world talking is presen ted in tho person of Lona Laska a momber of tho Alaska Duo. Ihe Purnclls is unother musical company coming with fino re commendations from tho East. Tho closing attractions of tho wcok is a doublo program known ns "An Evening in tho South Seas," featuring a group of nn tivo Maori Singers, tho only or ganization of its kind in Amorica, with a lecture on Now Zealand by Loiln Blomfield, writer and lecturer of thnt country, illus trated with official government viows.

RICE Announces that she has received from Carrie Louise Dunning a diploma as an exponent of the Dunning System of Im proved Musib Study, which includes the Faelten prin ciples concentration and the Leschetzky Technic. Formed into classes pupils are taught by musical characters and rhythm sticks. An'ingeniously constructed keyboard with graud staff attached, simplifies notation by uniting these two important factors. Each difficulty is presented in such a thorough manner that a child of ten or twelve years can master transposition, scale building, melody writing by dictation, the Dominant Seventh and Modulation. The written work teaches the student that music, as a language, they must learn to write, as well as interpret. The muscles of fingers, wrists and arms are strengthened by table technic; ear training and sight reading forms apart of every lesson. Mrs. Rice will be glad to show you BY APPOINTMENT the especially made apparatus for teaching this system which in eludes one class lesson and one private lesson each week, making a far more economical way of acquiring a musical education.

Richmond Phone Col. 389 Manufacture of the new Wolf link saw for falling and bucking timber has been commenced nt the plant of the Peninsula Iron Works; St. Johns. The new saw, which was invented by C. Wolf of this city, is electrically driven and tho entire outfit weighs but eighty-four pounds. A demonstration of the saw was Violil nf flirt rilnnf nf thn Pnnin. sula Iron Works recently. A twenty-oight inch dry log was cut in fifty seconiis with tho links traveling at the speed of 1050 fcot a minute. In the de sign of the Wolf saw. special attention was paid to the link pin, heretofore a weakness of link saws. In tho Wolf saw, tho pins work in hardened steel bushings. I hey are oiled through felt insert, which auto matically feed oil from tho frame. Vibration is practically absent in the newly inventnu device. Even with the deflection of tho blade, of ono inch, while travel ing n n horizontal position, the saw perfonncd faultlessly. The saw is revcrsiblH and cuts equally well in both directions. This feature gives tho teeth longer lifo than would be possiblo if tho saw wtrj run in only ono direction. Another feature of tho Wolf saw is elimination of danger of tho stiw breaking whilo in (Deration. Iho link pins arc so utronsg that tho mo tor has not sufficient power to broak them. In enso of tho saw becoming fouled in tho cut, tho overload causes tho fuse to blow out. stopping tho motor. The Peninsula Ironworks is ono of tho most thoroughly equipped foundries and machine shops on tho Coast. Tlfo company manu factures tho Peninsula power log loader for motor trucks, which tins gained great favor among timber operators during tho past year. The device is opcrutcd from the driver's seat, allowing tho operators to stand entirely clear at all times. Being com pact, it takes up no loading or carrying spaco whatever. Logs may bo handled directly over loader, or from behind, iho Poninsula power log loader loads loss with tho engine of tho truck. Only tho driver and a helper aro renuired to ouerato it. By tho use of this loador tho shifting of donkey engines is unnecessary, as tho truck nicks up logs any whero nlong tho road.
