THE MORNING OREGONIAN, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 11. 1914. 8 Soule Bros. Fail VANCOUVER SHOW IS TOO GOOD TO MISS FIRST PHOTOGRAPHS FROM VANCOUVER "PIONEER DAYS.' THE BIO PIANO FAILURE SALE IS NOW ON AT 388 MORRI SON STREET. Addison Bennett Says if There Is Any Better He Hasn't Seen It, That's All. GREAT THRONGS ATTEND Agricultural and livestock Displays Are Marvelous, Babies, Too, Are Wonders and Wild West Features Entrance. BY ADDISON BENNETT. It was reported that there were 11, 000 visitors at' the Vancouver fair grounds Wednesday. If that report was true, then there were 16,000 there yes terday. Anyhow, there was not a va cant seat and there were fully 4000 hanging over the rails and meander ing around the grounds while the show was on. Show, did I say? Gee! It was three or four fine shows boiled down into one. First, there were the exhibits of farm and orchard products, the great array of livestock. From the huge pumpkin and the abnormal squash to the luscious peach, the splendid pears !,and prunes, the grand apples, the canned goods put up by mother, the fancy work prepared by sister, the pigs grown by brother and the sheep and hogs and fat steers and the milch cows brought in by the entire family clear down the line from pumpkin to draft and speed horses there was about as fine a display at Vancouver and still js as ever was seen in the West. Babies Displayed, Too. And babies! I almost overlooked the 125 babies entered in the eugenics con- - tests. Not that I go so much on eu genic! If "they" had prevailed in the days of Washington poor George would have been thrown in the discard. Like wise in my own case, I would have been disqualified from any living em ployment because my height and girdle call for number seven shoes and I wear 10a! However, the Vanoouver ladies, young '.ladies, old ladles, single ladies, mar . ried ladles and graveyard widows and ; the other kind but stop; In Vancouver , Vancouver, Washington there are no but that has nothing to do with the ;fair and the show. So I must Jog along past all sorts of widows and strike the high spots of the greatest show ever . staged in Vancouver. First, however, let It be understood that had we that interstate bridge com pleted there would not have been room -'enough on the grounds for the crowd that would have gone from Portland. 1 don't like to knock the streetcar service between the business and resi dence sections and Portland far be It 'from me to say that the ferry across the Columbia was altogether and wholly inadequate to handle the crowds. I might say that when a ferryboat pulls away from shore and leaves a string of waiting autos a half mile long behind that it is a safe bet that the service is a leetle bit behind the demands of well, of the occasion. Once on the farther shore, in the City of Vancouver, there were autos h-Dlentv and streetcars galore to take the visitor - to the fairgrounds, three iniles awar. but over a fine road, bo for a nickel. 10 cents or a quarter, owing to whether you wanted to go in five minutes, seven minutes or 10 min utes or you could walk it free you would arrive at the gates and for two bits enter and witness a lot of the show. If you wanted a good seat you might cough up two-bits more, or get a box seat for four-bits. Now, about the show. Was it Bar Bum & Bailey that used to advertise The Greatest Show on Earth?" Per haps. But not while Barnuni was alive. He would have coined an expression to beat that of Tody Hamilton. I will not denominate the Vancouver show as the greatest on earth, because there are several shows that I have never wit nessed. For instance, the show re cently staged in Belgium and the one now holding the boards in France. But any man, woman or child who will visit the Vancouver show and say that he ever saw one in all its details better than it why that person is a blood relation of Ananias. The president of the Vancouver Fair Association is J. P. Wlneberg, the sec retary is G. P. Larson, the treasurer p . I would liked to have been treas urer last night! the man who counts the spondulix is A. J. Dorland. Also there is a publicity agent, and his name is Phtl S. Bates, our own Phil, who takes the girls around the world now and then for the delectation of himself and the profit of his news paper, the Pacific Northwest. Such a team! I really believe but never mind what I believe. There are the lm mvnse crowds going to their show. That tells what sort of men they are to pull a stunt of this sort. Wild West Outfit Marvelous. As a sort of central amusement fig ure these enterprising gentlemen en gage, i Irwin's Wild West Show, the real originators of the Cheyenne round up. This concern has a large circus about 150 employes well. It takes 30 cars to haul the outfit They have some of the best male and female riders, ropers, bull-doggers, broncho bust ers, shooters say. they have as great an aggregation as one will see in a lifetime. And there were trotting horses, run ning horses and. and. and well, there were some bulls, burros, cows, steers and buffaloes that caused lots of fun t v the downfall of attempted riders. Also there was John Spain, Fred Spain, buffalo Vernon and a whole lot of other celebrities in saddle and with the rope. Also and likewise there was the megaphone man, one tlene Nadreau, an employe of the Irwlns and he Is some megaphoner. Without the meg. he stutters a little and stammers a ' trifle but you ought, to hear that cuss ' King, through the megaphone, "Manda fay" or "I Love the Ladies!" He Just 'About made that huge audience throw a fit. so vehement did they applaud. It Js worth more than the price ol admis sion Just to hear Nadeau sing one of those songs. Do you know I only saw half of the show? Correct only half of it. It will be at its height when The Orego nlan goes to press for the sole purpose of giving the war news a poor position and this letter a good one. Because, you see, we want those Vancouver per sons to know that we know they have taught the Portland people a lesson in the show business, yes, a sure enough lesson. Show Too Good to Miss. For how and for why? Well, sup pose we could have got as many peo ple to go out to the show grounds that we have In the vicinity of Rose City 'ark but why weep? We In some way ' lacked but let that pass. Just 'fess up that a little band of sturdy business men in the little town of Vancouver came over here and took Phil Bates Phil who Is always ready to further the honest efforts of publicity for any cause captured Phil and put on a show that is a sure-enough four-time winner.

SHIPPING NEWS WITHHELD Sailing r Troops From Canada Be lieved Cause of Ban. NEW YORK, Sept. 10. Word reached here from Montreal tonight that the Canadian customs authorities declined to permit publication of steamship ar rivals or departures. For some time no sailings of vessels have been re ported by the authorities, but until now arrivals have been given out. It is as sumed here that some movement of shipping in connection with the pro posed sailing of the Canadian military contingent caused the new restriction to be imposed. Reports that 200,000 troops from Au stralia and India had passed through Canada within the past week also were cited tonight in connection with the Canadian embargo on shipping news, the suggestion being made that if such a troop movement really were under way, the British authorities naturally would wish to maintain secrecy as to shipping activity in connection with it. Asylum Attendant Fined $50. SALEM, Or., Sept. 10. (Special.) C. K. Sullivan, an attendant of the State Insane Asylum, who was arrested here today for assaulting three pa tients, pleaded guilty this afternoon and was fined $50.

PEDAGOGIC PRIDE HII Alice Joyce, Portland Teacher, Taken for "Movis Queen." PUPILS KNOW OF ACTRESS School Garden Worker Returns From Europe Highly Impressed With Education Abroad, Es pecially In German Empire. Pedagogic pride has had its fall! Miss Alice V. Joyce, Portland's fore most teacher of scientific school gar dening, has been taken for Alice Joyce, "movie queen," in almost every city in the United States since her return from Europe, where she went to study industrial conditions. Miss Joyce brings the story back to Portland, and in between telling of the marvelous efficiency of German school teachers and the advance of the old world In Industrial education, relates how often she had to disillusion hun dreds of school children before whom she spoke, and admit that she was there to talk on school gardens and not on moving-picture acting. "You see, on arriving ir America again, I visited a number of schools in the East, and in some places I was asked to speak to the children on the school gardens of Portland," said Miss Joyce, by way of amplifying. War Atmosphere Found. "Now. I suppose, although I didn't know It then, school children know the movie actresses by name, and when I was introduced as Miss Alice Joyce, who had just returned from Europe, and before it could be announced I was interested In school gardens in stead of moving pictures, there was a lively interest manifest that even school gardens couldn't provoke under ordinary circumstances. "But that was just one of the side lights of our trip to Europe. The fact that we were able to leave England July 29. just four days before Germany and Russia declared war, was another, but even then there was an atmosphere of war in England. "The outstanding feature of the European schools, and Germany must be placed first. Is the efficiency of their teachers. They are as highly trained as they are sure of their Jobs, and it's a fact to be reckoned with that about the time America is thinking of put ting its aging teachers into the dis card they are just counting on them to do things' in Germany. German teachers are classed as efficient until they are 67 years old, and then they go on the pension list. Teaching is a life job, so to speak, and the instructors can afford to devote all their time and energy to being teachers. The compar ison with American methods in this regard is striking. A teacher at 40 or thereabouts is 'young' in Europe, and that can hardly be said in America." Miss Joyce visited the physical ex amination clinic of students in London and reported the idea popular with the parents and fruitful in its results. Miss Joyce also rubbed elbows with the English militants, and decided they were not such a bad lot. "In fact, the militants Quite won me," said Miss Joyce, "and when I learned that among other things they were fighting against the government pay ing 840.000 to $60,000 to some descend ant of a man who fought in some war a couple of hundred years ago, I couldn t help believe they were right In their protest." Miss Joyce presented to Dr. George Kerschensteiner, head of the Munich schools, some photograhps of the Wood lawn School and gardens which had been sent to her by the Portland Com mercial Club. The pictures now hang in Dr. Kerschensteiner's office in Mu nich, where hundrers of visitors dally may see. Dr. Kerschensteiner has written the following card in German, which, 'roughly interpreted, conveys heartfelt appreciation: "Fur die freunliche ubersendung der schoenen photographien bitte ich mein en herz'.ichen Dank entegegen nehmen zu wollen. In vorzuglicher Hochach tung." Miss Joyce also caused to be shown some slides of Oregon scenery along COME!

Miss Joyce said wonderful re sults were being obtained, adding: "If they can make men out of boys who don't like books by putting them in the farm schools as a last Tesort, why can't they make the farm school the first resort and save time? I think it Is worth trying, anyway."

Damage Increase of Nearly S40,OO0 Over Last Year, Is Opinion of De partment Head. SALEM, Or., rept. 10. (Special.) Estimates made by the State Forestry Department fix the fire damage to green timber during the season at ap proximately $6000 and to logging equipment at $40,000. Compared with last year, this Is consid erable of an Increase, but the depart ment considers the loss Inconsequential in view of the large number of fires and the prolonged dry spell. Last year there were 363 fires, and this year the number will total about 1500. Th damages to green timber last year were Inconsequential $464 and the damages to logging equipment $6000. Greater damage to green timber was avoided this year becauje the fires were confined for the most part to old burns.

Dleck Notifies Civil' Service Board That Accusation Has No Founda tion Council to Hear Plaint. Declaring that Chief Plumbing In spector Hey and Deputy Inspector King nave been unfair in their Inspection of plumbing: have shown favoritism and have allowed violations of law in some cases and prosecuted tor the same vio lations In other cases, a committee of plumbers headed by M. P. Fleming, A. A Stolts and S. S. Shoemaker, appeared before the Municipal Civil Service Board yesterday and asked that the two inspectors' work be Investigated and that they be discharged from the service. When Commissioner Dleck appeared before the Civil Service Board and an nounced that he had Investigated the charges against the men fully and was satisfied that thsy were without foun dation, the Civil Service Board rofused to consider the complaints. It was said that the Civil Service Board had noth ing whatever to do wltlflnvesttgatlnns of the kind, the work of the Board being to hear charges against employes after they have been heard and acted upon by the head of the department and are not satisfactory to the em ployes affected by the decision. The plumbers, who say they have evidence to show that the two inspec tors have been unfair, were advised to appear before the City Commission and present their case. This will be done this morning when the Council holds Its regular Friday morning meeting. Commissioner Dleck wrote a letter to the Civil Service Board, notifying the members that they had no juris diction in the case. At the request of the Board members Mr. Dleck appeared before the Board, however, and ex plained his stand. His ldeaa were backed by the Board unanimously.

I don't believe in en gaging In vulgar newspaper contro versy, but when misstatements have been made by a bunch that hasn't enough capital actually in business to buy a carload of fine pianos: thai . nearly everything In the house on con slsrnnient, meaning that some middle man In San Francisco or elsswnsrs makes a big fat middleman profit be cause he owns the stock and the goods until some retail customer has bought each individual Instrumsnt, who In an unscrupulous manner, and without any thought of fairness tries to cry down our instruments, which actually cost more money wholesale, and are being sold by me for less money than what they probably would have to pay eventu ally for any of their consigned plsnos. than it's time that all should know the truth. Why should Ihle buarh attack serf I have ptit my good money up for this stock. Factories that 1 represented for veers are Involved in this unfortunate failure I know that continuing this .business, running In this mot gue-like manner, trying to soak people with high prices, would merely moan more loss. Illgh-prlce-charglng houses who boast of never running a special, be cause they can't run a special sale, since there are so many fingers. In the pie, and who frequently pay com mission men eighty dollars and a hun dred dollsrs. yea even as much ss two hundred dollars' commission for the sale of a single occasional piano. Why shouldn t this sort of a crowd Iry to sling mud and by svery means try to stop people from patronizing my of fers, when they see their trade slip ping away from them? Money talks. I'll put up one thou sand dollurs with any other thousand dollsrs from one or more of this hlgh-prtce-charging bunch: I agree to lose all the money I put up to charity (theirs can go baok to them, they need 111, If I cannot prove that I am offering In this sale, and have sold many Instruments at a smaller margin of profit to my self than has ever been the case (ex cept possibly In a legitimate special sale) In I'ortland, and even though I purchased at an exceedingly great ad vantage. I will further say that I have sold and now also offer many ns' pianos for sale at a profit of less that ten dollars each to me, while the howl ing high-price chargers have probably not a piano on their floor which Is offered to the pulillo for a profit or less than one hundred dollars, and I am not sure but that 1 would be perfectly safe to say. at less than two hundred dollars profit over the factory cost. f the above t-hellrnae Is taken up. let's all agree to show our wholssale prices, selecting three Judges, one se lected by myself, one by the trantir high-price chargers, and these two to select another one. Isn't that fair? Now, Betting down to busluene. Who can say that the Illustrious names upon instruments in this sale are not of the highest grade? Who will come out In the open and cover my thousand dol lars? Talk about exaerated statement. What right has a bunch to claim "es tablished In 1873," whan, as a matter of fact, they were started and Incorpo rated only about four years ago, and haven't even now capital enough to pay for a carload of fine pianos. Con sult your banker, or any commercial agency. The naked truth. The "soak-the-publtc-the-hlghest-prlce" houses don't dare to come out with factory cost prices; what a holdup It would show, and this being the case. Is it any woti fer that this kind of a bunch squeals and spends advertising money to be little a fair rival In trade, with whom, on the face of It, they cannot possibly fairly and honestly compsts? Now for true values, and what I Will sell at 388 Morrison. $250 pianos for $97.20, and I mean every word of It 1 mean that the high-priced houses everywhere try to sell these Identical pianos for $260. and In many places, for $300. I will agree with you that such should not be sold for more than $176 or possibly $200. but that makes no difference. I have the right to call it a $2&u or $300 piano, since blgh prlce chargers try to get that much for It. Am 1 not right now?
