MORNING ENTERPRISE., SUNDAY. DECEMBER 7, 1913. SPORT DOPE ................... - . .1. ........... .....(!, SEASON OPENS APRIL 14 portland to probably Venice First PLAY PORTLAND, Dec. 6. Although no announcement has been made as yet, there is every reason to believe that Portland fans will get their first glimpse of 1914 Coast baseball on Tuesday, April 14. With the Beavers opening in Sacra mento on March 31, this will give them a two weeks' stay in the south before coming home. This was the program carried out last season, when Portland opened at San Francisco on April 1, played the following week with Oakland, and then opened here on April 15, with Los Angeles as op ponents. Two years ago Portland played t'aree weeks in the south before coming here against San Francisco, while the same program was carried out inlOll, when the Beavers spent the first three weeks of the season away from home before opening here against Los Angeles. WASHINGTON WILL PROBABLY NOT PLAY IN PORTLAND PORTLAND, Ore., Dec. 6. From present indications the championship Washington football team, which has won the title for six consecutive years will not be seen on a local gridiron next year. The head3 of the different organiza tions of the Northwestern conference have partially completed their, football schedule, the first one they tr.ck.eu but the attitude of Ralph Horr, gradu ate manager of the University of Washington, -will keep the team out of Portland unless something new develops. .ENTRIES MADE PORTLAND, Ore., Dec. 6. A num ber of entries have already been re ceived for the annual Christmas swim, which will be held under the auspices of the" Multnomah club, as usual. The course will be the same as that cov ered for the last three years, the swimmers starting just below the Hawthorne street bridge on the west side, continuing for a distance of 100 vards down the river.

OREGON BEST-NO CY CLONES OR FLOODS Born in the big woods of Maine, reared on the prairies . of Nebraska, and transferred to various parts of the country in serving my company, I have had the opporunfty of suffering- and enjoying the different seasons and climates of many states, but for for peaceful, healthful elements, de void of extremes and disasters, the State of Oregon, west of the Cascades, takes first place in the race for com fort and happiness. True it rains in the winter time but no downpour as many believe, rather a pleasant mist that moistens the skin and throat, softens the art eries and prolongs life and health. The hot nights and debilitating heat are unknown ; no murderous earth quakes, no cloudburts, no floods, no terrible cyclones and tornadoes to cause anxiety for loved ones, occur in the Willamette Valley. The soil is fertile, water power and fuel in abundance, and the wonder is that there is plenty of room here yet. Ore gon offers, all that can reasonably be asked for the young and ambitious, and a peaceful, quiet, healthful home for the old. WM. E. NASON, Agent Wells-Fargo & Co. Oregon City Publicity. At the Portland ' Theaters Last Car Leaves for Oregon City) At Midnight ANNA HELD AT HEILIG The American tour of Anna Held for the season of 1913-14 is intended by John Cort, who projected and man ages it, to set a new high 'standard of excellence for "light entertainment" as cultivated Americans have come to appreciate it. The "Anna Held All-Star Variety Jubilee," which comes to the Heilig Sunday for three days is one of the most costly and complete productions of it's" size ever sent on tour in this country. Distinction of beauty, of talent, of individual stars and a sane delight, mark this attraction as the sum and crown of selected amuse ment. The most available talent of three continents has been enlisted in support of Miss Held, and she her self will show to the women of this country the most extensive, costly and varied wardrobe that Paris the city of "delectable vanity" every contrived for the embellishment of either society belle or stage beauty. The presence of George Beban, as principal support with Miss Held, is the best warrant of the excellence .of the presentation. Mr. Beban and his little group of players in "The Sign of the Rose," stand for all that is tender est, most beautiful and best in minia ture drama. Charles Ahearn and his ten Indes cribable burlesquers make up another feature of this unusual production; and the human being who cannot laugh heartily at this whirlwind satire on the "speed Mania" of today, cer tainly does not "belong" in this com munity. '. - ' The "Anna Held All-Star Variety Jubilee" is making only the principal cities of the United States and Can ada, and it is already amazing and de lighting the discriminating public. ALSPAUGH Thanksgiving is over and everyone is at work again. The dances at Eagle Creek and Es tacada were well attended. Mr. and Mrs. John Githens were Portland vistors one day last week. Miss Emma Dowty and George Douglass were visiting with the form er's parents over Thanksgiving. Frank Dowty spent Thanksgiving at home. Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Sparks took Thanksgiving with their sister and brother, Mr. and Mrs. George Morrow, of Portland. Misses Echo and Hazel Githens were Logan vistors Sunday. Mrs. H. N. Barton is visiting friends in Portland. Religion is what a . person hard enough. things PLENTY OF SUNSHINE; ROSES ARE IN BLOOM ' Oregon City, Oregon Nov. . 14, 1913. I believe few Eastern people have the remotest idea of what Oregon is like; especially in regard to climate. My conception was that there was nothing but fog and rain for eight months of the year. I supposed the rainy season set in about the 15th of September, and continued until late spring, but I have been very greatly surprised to find things very different. I came here from Colorado, the land of sunshine, I believe it is called; and ANNA HELD AND HER ALL STAR VAUDEVILLE COMPANY AT HEILIG, PORTLAND, DEC. 7. 8, 9 i; ''I ! i vt ' s . ? 9 - " i -ft r--r 4 J1 4 AKP fc.

I must say I have never spent so pleasant an autumn or early winter, j We have had a few rainy days, but they are always followed by days and j days of sunshine( and it certainly seems strange to see roses in bloom when I have always been accustomed to snow in late November. As to fruits, grains and vegetables. I think the Willamette Valley takes the lead. Butter and eggs bring fabu lous prices, and cows and chickens do well here, where one can raise green feed the year around for their cows. MRS. BEIDLER, Jackson Street.

"Thanks for the lobster" is the latest catch phrase in Paris.

GREENWOOD Boston man wrecks restaurant be cause he got only forty-two beans foi 15 cents. How many did he want forty-three? . A SL Louis man has written a grand opera in which nobody is poisoned stabbed or betrayed. That must be a eugenics opera. With the perfect man dead at the age of twenty-nine, some of the rest of us can become resigned to our physi cal imperfections. On the other hand, however, those of us who don't have to worry about the income tax are made mighty un easy by the outgo tax. Queen Mary of England is after the grafting servants in the palace. Evi dently the cook has been surreptitious ly feeding the policeman. And just because the tariff bill has become law don't think, Mr. Man, that you are going to get off any cheaper this coming Christmas. One great trouble about keeping boys on the farm is that so few of the big league games, including the world's se; ries, are played in the old pasture field. It is charged that there are too many kissing plays on the stage. Probably the excess is all the more noticeable because there are so few kissing plays at home. Emmy Destinn, the grand opera star, sang in a cage with fourteen lions. Probably these lions, unlike human lions, were too polite to chat through the performance. Marconi's repeated experiences with automobile smashups may yet inspire some kind of wireless invention to show when the other car is coming around the corner. It Is said that electricity will now do forty-eight things about the house and kitchen. If the mistress will do the rest the cook will doubtless press the button except on her day off. An ambassador enjoys great privi leges. For instance,- Mr. Page had the ineffable pleasure'of wearing his dress suit at the wedding of British royalty, although it took place in daytime.

A road meeting was held in Milk Creek precinct last Friday for" the pur pose of levying a tax to better our roads, but as the majority of the vot ers preferred to travel through the mud it was voted down. Mrs. Bert Wallace has been quite sick with a severe attack of tonsilitis but is able to be up again at the pres ent time. Several teamsters are hauling ties for the Hult sawmill to Liberal and shipping them on the Molalla railroad. Nearly all men are too lazy even to think for themselves. Thinking is hard work. A special road meeting was held at the school house at two o'clock last Saturday afternoon for the purpose of levying a tax.
