Dunning School of Improved
Music Study
MRS. PRANK A. RICE
Announces that she has received from Carrie Louise Dunning a
diploma as an exponent of the Dunning System of Im
proved Music Study, which includes the Faelten prin
ciples concentration and the Leschetizky Technic.
Formed into classes pupils are taught by 'musical characters
and rhythm sticks. 'An ingeniously constructed keyboard with
grand staff attached, simplifies notation by uniting these two im
portant 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 dictatiou, the Dominant Seventh
and Modulation. The written work teaches the student that music,
as a language, they must learn to write, as well as iuterpret.
The muscles of fingers, wrists aud arms are strengthened by
table technic; ear training and sight readiug forms a part of every
lesson.
Mrs. Rice will be glad to show you BV APPOINTMENT
the especially made apparatus for teaching this system which in
cludes one class lesson and one private lesson each week, making
n a far more economical way of acquiring a musical education.

Purchase has been announced

Wool Warehouse company, at a
price of 5275,000, of the Ameri
can Marino Iron works property,

"To finance tho wool clip of the

Warehouse company with a cap
ital of $2,000,000 has been organ
ized," said S.F. Wilson, tho vico
president. By rediscounts the
company will bo able to loan
flockmastersun to $10,000,000 on
their clips which will tend to
avert prevailing unsatisfactory
conditions in the wool markot.
Woolcrowera will havo an oncn
market and this will stimufato
tho growth of Oregon wool man
ufacturing industries. Tho ware
houso will be in five units, each
to house 2,500,000 to 3,000.000
pounds of wool, and in off sea

tative wool men, Jay S. Dobbin
and Fred W. Falconer, have been
elected directors of the company
and experienced men will opcr

wool warehouse act, thus uuding
to tho negotiability of its com
mercial paper and making its
grades of wool cortain of accept'

When a Life Goes Out
It is a natural desire that the funeral he conducted tenderly
and with dignity and reverence; that the lines of pain and suffering
he removed; that the drawn aud sunken features of the loved one he
restored.
This is not vanity on the part of the surviving family; but
rather that they and their friends, as they look upon the face of the
departed for the last time, may cherish in memory the face they
knew and loved in life.
This is a part of the service included with the many other
features that we employ, to lessen the suffering which is so apt to
be forcibly present.

To Increase Walcr Prcssuro
Although St. Johns district is
now furnished better water pres
sure, additional improvements
in the water service is in store,
City Commissioner John M.
Mann, in charge of the water
bureau, has directed a survey
made of the St. Johns district,
for the purpose of ascertaining
the necessary improvements
needed to give tho district ade
quate pressure, fire protection
aud water supply. This survey
will begin at once under the di
rection of Fred M. Randlett,
chief engineer of the water bu
reau. Tho erection of the Ver
non stnndnipo in the St. Johns
district and the erection of n mil
lion gallon tank in the Vernon
district assures the Peninsula
district of adequate pressure to
draw from. Commissioner Mann
is desirous or learning wnere
i
larger mains are required and
also has asked that a check be
made on firo hydrants, This
survey was planned by Commis
sioner Mann somo months ago,
but was delayed because the en
gineering department under his
charge, was engaged in complet
intr the dam located at Bull Run
lake, a dam constructed nt a cost
of $30,000. which insures siilli
cicnt storage of water at the
lako to prevent n water shortage
in Portlnnd in tho future. Es
timates made in the past on stor
aire facilities within the city ex
cecded 500,000 and it is concooct
by tho engineers of reputo from
ovcry part of tho country, that
tho dam recently completed will
serve Portland's needs for years
to come. In addition the engi
ncoring department of the wa
ter bureau has completed prelim
inary survey of the right of way
of tho third conduit from the
lako to tho city, which it is ex
ncctcd will bo ncccsjary within
the next thrco years. Recently
tho water bureau completed the
construction of largo mains ser
ving tho industrial section along
tho Columbia river slough and
also mains leading to Municipal
Torminul No. 4 in Isorth bt.

Communication
As president of

the St. Johns
wish to cor
rcct the statement
made in your
last issue in regard ton proposer
challenge to debate politicnl is
sues witn our Democratic oppo
nents. 1 was approached by a
Democrat who had some kind of
a proposition to mnko and I re
quested that he write down his
desires so that they might be
fully understood. I have not
heard from him since. If my
Democratic friends can explain
wnat objection any true Anion
can has to the following resorvn
tion, which will clarify Article
10:
rno united States assumes
no obligation to preserve the tor
ritorial intoirritv or nnliticnl in
dependence of any other couiv
try by the employment of its
military or naval forces, its re
sources, or nny form of economic
discrimination, or to interfere in
any wny in controversies be
tween nations, including all con
troversies relating to territorial
integrity or political independ
ence, whether members of the
league or not. under tho provis
ions of Article 10, or to employ
tho military or naval forces of
tht! United States, under any ar
ticle of tho treaty for any pur
pose, unless in any particular
case the Congress, which, under
tho Constitution, has the sole
power to declare war or author
ize the employment of the mili
tary or naval forces of tho Unit
ed States, shall, in tho exercise
of full liberty and action, by net
or joint resolution as provide."

extent that ho supports Hiram
