ADVERTISING OPPORTUNITIES.
Under the banner of the Oregon
Development League, the state has
never taken a more decided forward
movement In community publicity
than now. With the various cities
thoroughly aroused and actively at
work to advance their interests, the
outlook is very bright. Never ha
there been a stronger advertising
pulse throughout the state. There
is a determination to set forth to the
world the manifold advantages Ore
gon has to offer to the homeseeker.
During the past week, under the di
rection of the Oregon Development
League, remarkable meetings have
been held In various parts of the state.
Tremendous interest has been shown
everywhere.
Lebanon raised a publicity fund of
$2500 at an enthusiastic meeting. The
people of the city are united in the
determination to exploit the resources
of that section and are doing splen
did work.
Corvallis has just organized a wo
man's auxiliary that will make Itself
felt In many ways in furthering the
. efforts of the local commercial club
in advertising Corvallis. A warm wel
come is given newcomers.
Sllverton people, at a meeting dur
ing the past week, raised a fund of
over J2000 that will be still further
Increased. A strong commercial club
has been organized with over 40 mem
bers and It is promised this number
will be raised to 100 soon.
Sclo and Jefferson are in line for
their share of publicity, having each
raised $600 for development work in
their section. All are alive to the
state league. .
Laidlaw is active. The develop
ment league of that place is on tha
alert to advertise that part of Oregon
and it is going ahead as never before.
Glendale, at a meeting Friday, show
ed a splendid get-together spirit and
the people of that place are thorough
ly wide awake and enterprising.
All the money spent for advertis
ing Portland during the past eighteen
months totals $200,000. That amount
represents $12,000 less than the actual
advance on one 50x100 fott lot in
Portland at the corner of Sixth and
Washington streets. That, lot was
bought tor $ltW.tk0 two years ago.
Mr. Wilcox, the owner, now refuses
$;!T3.000 for it.
The people of the west should de
mand nothing short of $100,000,000 to
be kept In a revolving fund for the
reclamation of arid and swamp lands.
The price of a hulk of old scrap iron
for that is all a Dreadnaught will be
in ten years Is more than the re
clamation service is given for the
whole United States.
In XewYork and SatiKTanciseo men
will soon be again gnawing the crusts
of charity in bread lines. A little
charity properly and Intelligently ap
plied "would put these men on the
lands of Oregon and make useful cit
izens of them.

Delegate H. L. Fitzgerald reported
to the Central Labor Council last Fri
day evening as one of the committee
to investigate the Portland Commons,
that he had found it to be a clean
and honest run place. "It looks like
one of the best places I ever saw.
The beds are clean and I would not
mind sleeping in any one of them
myself. The objects are to give the
man who is down and out a chance,
and God knows he needs somebody
to give him a glad hand. This Insti
tution has the street preacher and
somemore pretentious charities skin
ned to death."
Receives Shock From Wire.
The sister-in-law of George C.
Brown, of Oregon City, residing In
Sellwood was very severely shocked
Friday upon taking hold of the elec
tric light globe to turn on the light.
The Insulation was defective and left
the bare wire exposed, which she was
unfortunate enough to touch. Mrs.
Brown was thrown to the ground and
was taken into the house unconscious.
After some time she regained her nor
mal condition and was none the worse
for her narrow escape.

JENNINGS LODGE.
A petition Is being circulated for
a live cent car fare from the Lodge

would help this place. Our straight

crimination of 5 cents against our
station. Mcldriim. which Is only u

SUPPER OF MEN'S CLUB.
Thousands of new settlers have
come to Oregon and Washington dur
ing the period that the low one-way
colonists rates were in etfect and are
now building permanent homes here.
On the O. R. & N. lines alone, 7164
bomeseekers came to the Northwest
between September 15 and October
15. This is a very satisfactory in
crease over the travel of this kind
during a similar period of last Fall,
and shows that the tide of Immigra
tion Is steadily growing stronger to
this favored section of the country.
Thousands of farmers in Oregon will
not read literature on subjects they
have already formed conclusions up
on. There is so much to read on sub
jects' they wish to know about that
cjuestlons already settled In their in
dividual minds receive scant atten
tion, especially if the evident object
of the literature is to take the op
posite side. To such men only per
sonal appeals are possible, and even
then tact and patience 13 necessary.
T. S. McDaniel, of Portland. Talks on
the Brotherhood Idea.
The monthly supper of the Men's
Club of the Congregational Church
Wednesday night carried with It
some Interesting features and the af
fair was one of the best held by the
organization. There was a large num
ber of men in attendance and the
chief speaker was Colonel T. S. Mc
Daniel, of Portland, who talked on
"The Brotherhood Idea," giving spe
cial attention to the problems of the
hour. Rev. E. S. Bollinger, pastor of
the Highland Congregational Church,
Portland, and Rev. S. A. Hayworth,
pastor of the First Baptist Church, of
Oregon City, were the special guests
of the club and both made short talks.
Other speeches were made by Judge
Thomas F. Ryan. County School Su
perintendent T. J. Gary. City School
Superintendent F. J. S. Tooze and
George M. Lazelle, president of the
Clackamas County Fair Association.
Two pleasing vocal numbers were
rendered by Charles A- Miller, and In
strumental music was furnished by
the West Oregon City orchestra. The
club suppers will be held hereafter
on the first Tuesday In each month.
Judge E. C. Bronaugh will probably be
the main speaker of the December assembly.

Carry No Money On Yovt Person
It is not necessary, beside it is unsafe and
dangerous. Deposit your money in this
bank subject to check, then when you wish
to pay any person, write out a check for
the amount.
This method of paying bills is more con
venient than employing the cash. No need
to make change. You can pay by check
wherever you are, at home, in the store or
out in the country.
The check accoont commends itself to every
person for its convenience alone, to say
nothing about the safety it affords.
Why not make cse of the check system?
There is absolutely no cost to you. Come

Society Brand
IT is reasonable to believe that we
would not constantly dwell upon
the merit of Society Brand Clothes
if our experience had not taught us to
thoroughly respect the wonderful value
one obtains when he buys a garment of
this well known make. In quality they
have no equal. The best of materials
throughout is one of their strong character
istics. When it comes to the question
oi style, we have never seen garments
from any other maker which possess these
artistic lines and which so strongly
appeal to the voung man, who demands
every feature of fashion. We would like
to show you a few of the new Fall Suits
and Overcoats and let you try on your
size, whether you want to buy or not.
