The Oregon building Is the scene of constant activities, both official and so cial. The structure Ls well planned for all sorts of functions, its architecture be ing perfect from this viewpoint. Other State buildings labor under the disad vantage of having their exhibits under the same roof, and while this is most advantageous for the exhibits, it Ls a bit inconvenient when entertaining is going on. Mrs. Jefferson Myers, Oregon State hestess. is admirably fitted for her posi tion, and the greeting she extend to young and old. rich and poor, Is genial and wholesouled. The county hostesses who take their station In the commodious reception rooms provided by the state for every Oregonian's entertainment, are made to feel perfectly at home by Sirs. Myers and assisted by her in every way possible. While the rooms of the Oregon building are as large as the ordinary public hall, every day sees them profusely decorated with great quantities of fresh roses, which are sent to Mrs. Myers by her many friends here and from adjoining towns. At many of the receptions the pact week rosea were given to the guests -s favors. In addition 1o the souvenirs provided by counties. The Dalles made a feature of giving strawberries away at Its reception last Thursday. Official Entertaining There. There are always thlnss doing at the New Tork building, in that all official en tertaining is done there. The private res taurant draws the majority of New York visitors in the ground, and there arc al ways distinguished callers. The dinner plven by Commissioner and Mrs. Pratt Brown, Mrs. W. W. Brown nnd Miss Luce Friday night In honor of Mr. and Mrs. Goode was a big affair. Monday night there will be a reception by the Exposi tion management for the California Pro motion committee. Tuesday night Com missioner Brown will entertain the former students of Yale resident In Portland, tailing It ".Yale Night." The presence of Miss Luce at the New York building Mtracts many of the young set of Port lind. with whom she had proved popular. She and the Browns will remain until the 15th or 20th. when their place will be taken by Commissioner and Mrs. Harrj P. Williams, of Buffalo, who are ex rvted to arrive about that time. Execu tive Officer and Mrs. De Lancy Kills will remain at the hulldlng all Summer. The Missouri building Is now in charge f Commissioner and Mrs. D. S. Carver. Mr. Carver, who Is an editor, is aio the secretary of the commission. Commis sioner E. E. E. McJImsey ls also here, and R. H. Kern, president of the com mission, will arrive later on. There has ecn no formal entertaining at the Mis souri building, from the fact that the an nex Is not completed. After It Is fin-O-.cd a 'ormal reception l planned, and t If probahle that som form of enter tainment will be given the National Ell torlal Association, as both Commissioners Carver and McJImsey are newspaper men. The decorations of this building are par ticularly attractive .esnec'Ially the pictor ial effects done in grains. Y. W.'C. A. Building Attracts. The Y. V. C. A. building Is attracting much attention, and the domestic science restaurant run in connection with It is doing good business. The building ls open to the public, and there are few women who do not avail themselves of the con venience of th rest and retiring-rooms furnished for them. Miss Constance Mc Corkle Is superintendent of the building This week Miss Foglc. of Moscow. Idaho, is In charge of the dlnlnc-room. and next week Mrs. Anne tSoe Crayne. preceptress of the Normal School at Weston, will take her plac. Despite the. stormy weather of the early week, several hundred guests attended the opening reception in the Y. W. C A. building, and much Interest has been dis played in events there ever since. The School of Domestic Science will have charge of the refreshment booths at the annual meet of the Hunt Club next Sat urday, and Wednesday. June 14. the luncheon givtn by the Multnomah Chap ter cf the D. A. R.. will- be In the Y. W. l . A. dining-roomi-. The Idaho building is probably more thoroughly "settled down" for the Sum mer then any other state building on the grounds. It. Is a gem architecturally, and the furnishings and general color effects inside are most tasteful and pleasing to the eye. Mrs. Adclla B. Scott, the official hostess, ls a woman of charm and dlstinc t cn. She is a politician and county offi i al in Idaho, and when citizens of the.t state mil at the pretty building on th shire ef Guild's Lake, Mrs. Scott calls t em by name and does not have to ask tbete they are from. She Is ably assisted ts month by Miss LJda Cox. of Boise. Mrs. Robert Hayes, of Pocatella. an J tt:5s Elvira Fay r Moscow. In July, other hostesses will comb to assist her. Governor Gooding and .Staff. Governor Gooding and his staff were en tertained at the Idaho building when they tere here at the opening of the Expoti tion. but aside from this no formal en tertaining has been done. Mrs. Scott and her hostess, and tte Commissioners live in the building, having Ideal suites of rxims and a model dining-room und 1 Itchen. The furnishings of the ladies' reception-room were bought with sub scriptions volunteered by the women of Idaho, and are a credit to alt who contrib uted. In the Commissioners roception-rooms "ndK a ct-iid silver vase "which attraots. much attention, and of which Idaho is very nreud. as five wen it in competition for the best fruit raisd by lrrlsition.

When the California promotion committee comes up next week these la dles and Commissioners will entertain them. Including one Wr reception, on Tuesday. Wednesday there will be a card reception given Mrs. Pardee, the Gov ernor's wife. ' Things have been quiet at the Massa chusetts building, for the fact that Sirs. W. H. Fairbanks, the ofllclal hostess, has been ill for u woek. There will be no so cial activities by Massachusetts before the 17th. when the formal dedication and opening will take place. On that occa sion. Mrs. Fairbanks will be assisted "by Mrs. Theodore Wlloox, whose husband will represent Governor Douglass.

Interest Is general in the coming live stock show at the Lewis and Clark Expo sition, and the hearty support of all great stock centers of the West, Middle West and Pacific Coast Is assured. M. D. Wis dom, superintendent of the livestock show department, made a report yesterday to Secretary H. E. Reed showing the result of his Journey throughout the districts named. The report sets out that stock men everywhere are talking of the Lewis and Clark Exposition, and arc preparing to send their best animals to Portland. Competition is to be exceedingly strong. -Mr. Wisdom finds. Benefiting by past ex position?, breeders and growers know what to send, he says, and those who ex- TRAVELING MEN'S SPECIAL TRAIN FROM PTGET SOOD. pect to get awards must attain a high degree of excellence. "I do not believe local people need to feel the least bit discouraged. said he. in discussing the matter. "From what I saw of stock elsewhere. Oregon may safe ly hope for a goodly share of the" awards. e have as fine stock here as anywhere, and I expect Oregon to come out of the contest with flying colors. Oregon grow ers have every advantage, as they will have no great distance to transport their animals. "Everywhere I went I found stock peo ple' interested In our show," continued Mr. Wisdom. "California, where I went first, will be largely "represented, and ought to get away with a number of good awards. From California I Jumped to Kansas City, and found that Missouri will be represented, especially with Shorthorn and Hereford cattle. In Minnesota and other Middle Western States many fine animals arc being groomed for shipment, and the same may be said of Montana and the Paget Sound country. "Aside from the benefits to the stock Industry to be gained through the show, the Exposition will profit to an unexpect ed extent In the matter of attendance. The show will bring thousands, who would come for no other reason. To this class, and. It is a numerous class, the stock show Is the greatest drawing card In the world and the greatest form of ed tertainment for them." The stock show opens August 1 for cat- tle .sheep, swine, goats and poultry. On August 2S the horse show opens. Five awards have been provided for each class, thus making the show a broad one.
