BUYERS FOIL PEACE PLAN
Attempts to Arbitrate Bayocean Land
Case in Court Futile.
Attempts to arbitrate the differences
between S6 purchasers of Bayoceon
land and the T. B. Potter Realty Com
innr nroved futile after a long con- i
ferenee in Circuit Judge Gatens" court
room Saturday. The property owners
had petitioned for a receiver on
grounds that the realty company had
not fulfilled its contract to improve
Bayocean.
W. J. Clemens, who represented the
company, proposed that three men be
naned by each side, and an additional
man by Judge Gatens to take charge
of Bayocean affairs, but the purchasers
would , not agrae to this.
COPPER PROSPECT FOUND
Company Formed at Centralia to

Baxter and E. F. McDermott yesterday
organized the Lucky Strike Mining
Company, to develop a claim said to
have been staked out north of this city.
A prospector, said to be an old man,
came Into the city with samples of ore
which Mr. McDermott, who is an as
sayer, and Baxter, a miner, say are rich
In copper, with smaller amounts of gold
and lead. He had staked out a claim
but had no funds with which to develop
it. They formed the company to fin

"DECOYING FLYER" SEEN IX ACTION IN WAR PICTURES AT
ELEVENTH-STREET THEATER.
Scene From the Only Official Motion Pictures of the German Side of
the War Now Playing at the Eleventh-Street Playhouse, Form
- erly the Old Baker, Eleventh and Morrison Streets.
GERMAN IS CUT OUT
Only English Captions Allowed
on Films by Censors.
WAR'S HORRORS DEPICTED
Shattered Temples, Devastated and
Deserted Lands and Homes Bear
Mute Testimony of Cruelty
of European Conflict.
Fears of violated neutrality appear
to have moved the local board of mov
ing picture censors when they viewed
the German war pictures, now running
at the Old Hellig Theater, Eleventh ana
Morrison streets, for they objected to
the descriptions of the scenes in the
German language and ordered tnem
deleted. Captions on the films appeared
both In the original text and in Eng
lish. Theatrical managers interested In
the films failed to see why German
script on moving picture films that are
advertised as being Germany's official
pictures, taken by permission of the
German authorities and sanctioned by
the Kaiser, should be considered ob
jectionable, particularly when it is ac
companied by the English translation.
They declare the original films, tinex-
purgated by censors, are being snown
in other principal cities of the country.
But the order of the censors was nnai.
The films appeared without a single
German word and sympathizers with
the allies may rest assured they will
not be aggravated on that account it
they go to see them.
Beginning- with mobilization and tne
departure of the first troops, the pic
tures encompass a vast amount of
action on the firing line.
The pictures show, more lucidly than
words can tell, of the devastation and
destruction of the conflict. Hundreds
and thousands of homeless women and
children on their way to safety are
shown in flight. Shattered temples.
devastated lands, deserted homes, speak
loudly of the terror of the people and
the cruelty of the conflict.
The pictures are full of action. Sol
diers on the march, the capturing of
towns, marine warfare and the work-
ng of the big machine guns make the
films of intense interest.
The Germans' loyalty to the Kaiser
is shown more than once. Every place
ence and reverence, not only Dy tne
soldiers, but by the women and the
Children
The films will be shown at the the-
ater for a week. The show begins at
1 P. M. and runs until 11 P. M.

CONSOLIDATION VIEWED
AS ECONOMIZER OF TIME
Guy W. Talbot, President Pacific Power and Light Company, Thinks
Meiger of Business Organizations Means Efficiency and Less Expense.
Talks on Consolidation. Number 5.
THE movement under way to con
solidate the Commercial -. Club,
Chamber of Commerce and other
similar business organizations is one
of the best things that has happened
to Portland In many years from a sen
sible and economical standpoint.
By economy I do not mean from the
financial end only, but economy in time
belonging to business men, economy in
service and in numerous other direc
tions. The plan, when carried to a final
conclusion, should place our pubilicity
and community work In some such
condition where duplication and shoot
ing of blank cartridges will be elimi
nated. The more of these organiza
tions that can consolidate without los
ing the effectiveness for which they
were organized, the better, to my no
tion, will be the results obtained at a
cost of a minimum of time, energy and
money.
I believe every, member of the two
organizations should use his best ef
forts to effect this consolidation as
early as possible, aid and assist in re
organization, so as to make it work
able at the earliest date.
If the plan is a success, and I as
sume it will be, as able men have
analyzed the situation thoroughly and
given the programme their approval,
it will mean for all business men less
committee meetings to attend, less
committees for them to serve on, and
give them the time to work intelligent
ly on committees for which they may
tenor of the address delivered by Dr.
Nina Evelyn Wood at the peace meet
ing at the Public Library yesterday
under the auspices of the World Peace
Association. Frank Motter was to
have delivered the address of the day,
but was unable to be present.
Dr. Wood said: "Our purpose is first
to establish an educational bureau by
which we intend to show that peace
is the greatest asset of all advance
ment."
The speaker also told how It was
intended to take up the campaign m
the schools by having the school chil
dren sing the peace songs, wear the
white flag emblem of peace and write
competitive essays.
MILITARY SCHOOL PLAN
IVO-COMMISSIO.ED OFFICERS
GUARD TO LEARN TACTICS.
OF
Army Sergeant to Instruct Militiamen
on Friday Nights System of
Blocks to Be Feature.
A school for the non-commissioned
officers of the six Portland National
Guard companies is to be established
at the Armory Friday. Sergeant
Hathaway, of the United States Regu
lar Army, who has been detailed for
instruction work In Oregon, will be in
charge.
The school will meet every Friday
night and the officers .will be given
military problems to solve. They will
also be drilled in the manual of arms,
in strategy and in other essentials of
a military education.
Previously the commander of each
company has instructed the non-commissioned
officers under him. The new
plan of putting all the officers in one
school, it is believed, will prove much
more efficient.
As there are 12 non-commissioned
officers in each company, there will be
72 men who will take up the work in
the school.
Recruiting Sergeant Klein is work
ing out a system to teach the move
ment of troops by means of blocks.
The different blocks will be marked
with the Insignia used to designate
military rank. These blocks will then
be moved about in much the same man
ner as checkers or chess to show the
various troop formations.

horse trades with the "oeaKin." ieenng
fully in accord with the "Do-unto-the'

David and Polly. Deacon Perkins.
John. Timson and Mary are real life
characters, just as real as westcott pic

The horse that would "stand without

a trick horse evidently being used, for

cacy. She is ably supporiea.

tresses on the screen including Nazi
mova and Petrova. While Miss Nan-
sens work is essentially auiereni
from the Russian actresses it is of a
high standard, artistic and graceful.

Sermon Thoughts From
Portland Churches.
R
BV. T. W. LANE, pastor of Centen
ary Methodist Episcopal Church,
preached an inspiring sermon on "A
Religion of Principle," scattering
throughout his discourse last night
many epigrams, some of which are:
"Begin anywhere. There Is plenty
to do.
"Do you believe that good and evil
are catching?
XV ti I rli wmiM' vnll

"One way to make t
the most of life is
to do the most for
those who need you
most
"Do not do things s
because itr is tne j
custom." Do what is Lfc5l
right because it is
right That Is the Rev. T. W. Lane,
anly safe (fctth.
"How much easier it is to remember
the wrongs we have suffered, than the
kindnesses we have received; and how
miserable it makes us.
"True religion is not an Insurance
policy against future loss. It is an in
vestment of a life with a view to the
return of the largest and best divi
dend, for time and eternity.
"Did you ever notice that when a
horse begins to kick, ne quits puiung:
He cannot kick and pull at the same
time. Can it be possible that the same
thins: is true of a Christian? Horse
sense Isn't a bad thing, after all."
With "Memory and Expectation' as
his topic. Dr. Luther R. Dyott preached
his second sermon last night on the
ri on TiRvehologv. "The Use of
Psychology In Business" will be next
Sunday's topic. Dr. Dyott said last
niirht:
"Our effort In the main, is to bring
nsvcholoev from the realm of the tneo-
retlcnl and speculative to the place
of the practical, showing its availabil
ity to us in the affairs or everyaay
life. A careful study of tne subject
enables us to see that memory ana
exnectition are distinguished from
ihn mere succession of ideas, and im
ages by involving a 'reference to one's
conscious life as a succession in tune.
Life, at its best, asks faithful mem
ory to serve as a custodian In relation
to the past, that the receptive, reten
tive and reproductive powers of the
mind mav take care of life's imperish
able treasures. Life, at its best, asks
e-rnertntlnn to -maintain its true at-
tidue in relation to the best of all,
which is yet to come."
There went with him men of valor
whose hearts God had toucnea.
Samuel x:26.
What Central Church neeas is a
band of men like that men with God
touched hearts. That means true men
men who would starve and die rather
than do wrong." declared Rev. c
Rarick. of Central Methodist Church,
speaking on "Men of Valor." Dr.
Rarlclf said:
To trust in God and do the right is
easier said than done, but it Is not im
nnsaible. Some men say, "I can't be
a Christian in my business, for there
are manv things we have to do be
cause others do them, that I couldn t
do if I were a Christian, it would mean
failure." But men seldom fail by oe-
lnn- too honest.
Th only failure a man oupnt to
fear Is failure to do right. Religion
cuts off nothing that is right. Wrong
is wrong regardless of church books.
Relitrlon is the right use or a man s
whole self, and history shows that a
man can be a true Chrlstinn in the
mt unfavorable evironment, if he
cannot escape from it, as the 'saints in
Caesar's palace." "
-
Father Daley, of St. Mary's Catholic
Church, had for the theme of his ser
mon Sunday morning '"The Purpose of
Doinsr and Mortification." Father Daley
said that without an aim notning was
ever accomilished. and that wltnoul
purpose any man Is a sluggard, tie
said that If a man does not at some
tima do voluntary penance, circum
stances will force him to repentance.
"The advantages of fastening our
thoughts and affections on things un
seen are many. Thus we are able to
triumDh over our trials, afflictions and
disappointments. If we rely upon the
nromises of God's word, look away from
our trials, we find our afflictions be
coming light, and our burdens small.
We are afraid to take God at his word."
This was the statement of Rev. E. Olin
Eldridge yesterday in his sermon on
"The Power of the Unseen."
In- his sermon yesterday morning in
Rose City Park Presbyterian Church,
Rev. J. M. Skinner, who spoke on the
subject "Paul In Rome." said: -raui
found in Rome many of the problems
confronting the cities of the modern
world. Two thousand years of Chris
tian civilization have not materially
chanced the baser nature of the un
christian world. Then as now part of
the city's population rolled In extrava
gance, while the other part decayed In
poverty. Caligula drank pearls dis
solved in vinegar. Nero shod his mules
with silver. He never wore the same
garme.it twice and his golden house
was a marvel of splendor.
"But 2000 years have left these phases
of city life. Vast multitudes of people
have exchanged legal for social slavery.
Traversing the lower sections of our
cities I have been Impressed with the
walls which enclose and hamper the
development of this portion of our peo
ple. They rise thank God they rise
but with the greatest effort. No prob
lem confronts the city equal to this
problem. No problem confronts a na
tion like this problem. No question Is
so hazardous as the release and eleva
tion of these submerged masses with
out revolution. India presents to a na
tion what a district presents to a city.
More difticAilt than the conquest of Ger
many, is the elevation of India. Eng
land has done many noble things for
India, but economically, India is still
a national slave. 'Men are cheaper than
money.' There is but one solution tt
such a question. It is the Christianiza
tlon of the elevated part of the city's
people. Nero said, 'I now have a dwell
ing fit for man.' What is needed is a
man fit for the dwelling. No generation
like ours has been impressed with
sociology. Sanitation is good, recrea
tion is good, education Is better, but
the best cure of the city's sores is the
evangelism of the city."
