CIIICACO, lLL.-Oregon stood out pronilueutly at the United StateB Land Show during the three weeks It was
held at the Coliseum, Nov. 20 to Dec. 8. Aside from the bountiful displays of the slate's products in the Ore
gon booth and the mammoth exhibit of the Great Northern Bailway on the main floor, the Great Northern
Uullway's exclusive lecture hall proved a telling medium of acquainting land show visitors with the state's
wonderful resources, both agricultural and horticultural. Thii lecture hall, consisting of one-half of the Coliseum
annex, had a seating capacity equal to that of a good sized theater. Motion pictures and stereoptlcon views were
used to illustrate the lectures of the Great Northern Railway's experts, and besides C. C. Chapman of the Portland
Commercial club other Oregon men were given the use of this lecture hall dally through the courtesy of Loula W.
inn. .
Never before has there been such effective missionary work done among homeseekers for the state of Oregon.
Scores of Jars of fruits, large sections of transparencies showing scenes In the fruit growing districts of Oregon
and great varieties of fruits In their natural state were exhibited in the huge booth of the Great Northern Railway.
The dry farming sections of Oregon were not overlooked either, many astonishing varieties of grasses and oth
er land products IicIiik exhibited. They attracted much attention.
Colonel Hill Hanley visited the show and occupied the platform of the Great Northern Railway's lecture hall on
Oregon day. Colonel Hanley always Is a big drawing card In Chicago, and standing room was at a premium when
he gave a characteristic talk on the great possibilities his home state holds out to the homeseeker. Lonta W.
Hill accompanied Mr. Hanley from St. Paul to Chicago to attend the land show.
Great In Little Things.
George Washington's surveying done
150 years ago with the comparatively
simple Instruments of the day has
been checked up by government sur
veyors of today and found perfect.
Experts In other lines might check up
other works ami qualities of his his
patriotism, his common sense, his fore
sight, his persistence and find pretty
nearly the same degree of excellence.
Washington was only nineteen years
old when he ran his lines through the
forests and over the hills of Lord Fair
fax's estate in Virginia. Rut the youth
was father to the man. Baltimore
Sun.
Doubles of Famous men.
Tennyson, who resembled Dickens,
bnd, despite disparity of years, an al
most perfect "double" In Sir Leslie
Stephen. Perhaps It Is similarity of
occupation or Interests that breeds re
semblance, for Professor Schrnder was
so like lluxloy that even their Intimate
friend Grunt Duff mistook one for the
other, and Sir Laurence Aluin-Tade
ma was scarcely distinguishable from
his brother artist, Dti Mnurier. The
theory, however, hardly accounts for
the ludicrous resemblance of Kdniuud
Yates and the late shah of Persia.
