THE 3I0RXING OREGONIAN, TUESDAY, 3IARCH 16, 1013. 13 FESTIVAL WORK SET Civic Bureau Hereafter to Sup plant Association. FIELD'S SCOPE DESCRIBED Retailers' Problems to Be Solved in Measure by Committees to View Advertising Schemes. , "Safety First" Is Included. Under the consolidated organization of the commercial bodies of the city the handling of such matters as the - Hose Festival will fall to the Civic Bureau, according to H. V. Chase, who is handling the work of the consolida tion. This Is one of the largest of the nine "proposed bureaus through which every conceivable department of civic . activity is to be conducted. The committee has gone over the field which is designed to be covered by the Civic Bureau and has provided that the following phases of the work are to be cared for under the direct charge of a committee appointed as the need for work in its particular line arises: Rose Festival This has been pro vided for under its own administrative force for this season and its activities will be carried out under the direct management of the Rose Festival As sociation, aided by the proper commit tees of the Civic Bureau of the Cham ber of Commerce, which will also as fiist in the' city beautiful campaign, a part of the Kose Festival activities. Safety Efforts Assigaed. "Safety first" another- important branch of the Civic Bureau, has three subdivisions requiring a great deal of work i'ire prevention, regulation of vehicle traffic and industrial safety, the last-named having special reference to equipment and devices for the pre vention of accidents in manufacturing and other industrial activities. Health and sanitation committees will be required from time to time as various phases of this large question arise. Water, sewerage and drainage will have the attention of special commit tees as needed. Schools and educational matters will be subjects for special consideration. Public utilities problems will be handled by committees as the special rtuestions demand, each having a com mittee for Its specific work. . Parks and playgrounds call for sep arate committee work. Market Committee Is Needed. Public market matters will obtain the attention of committees named for this purpose. Parks and playgrounds problems rising outside the City Beautiful committee work call for special com mittees. Street lighting matters are also pro vided for in this bureau under special committee work, and other committees may be named as occasion arises from time to time. It will be seen that this bureau will have a large easure of the Chamber of Commerce work under its charge. Further outlining the work under consideration, Mr. Chase says: "Perhaps no other citizens, as a class, are so often 'hit' by the solicitor for financial aid, subscriptions to hartties and other funds, propositions for advertising schemes and the like, as the retail merchants. How to get lid of this great drain upon their pock etbooks and their patience has been one of the vexing problebs of nearly every municipality, and various means for attaining relief have been pro posed. - AU Proposals to Be Eyed. "That a great service may be ren dered in this line by such a strong or ganization as the Chamber of Com cerce is recognised by those in charge of preparing for the work that the or ganization is to undertake. Provision is made for this in the retail buTeau. one of the nine bureaus under which the work of the chamber will be grouped. "The work in this bureau, like that of the others, will be carried forward by special committees appointed when needed, and for the definite work to be done. In this instance the work will have to be carried on throughout the year, and the committee on Charities and Advertising propositions will be ready at all times to investigate and report upon all such schemes, to Indorse or otherwise, as the findings snay determine. Retailer's Troubles Skirted. "As membership in the organization commits the retailer to abide by the findings of its committee, he is auto matically relieved from responsibility ia refusing to contribute to any cause not having the proper indorsement of this censorship committee. It will be a great relief to the merchants to know that they will not have to be on their cruard all the time to avoid being filched of their funds by fakirs. "Among the other things to be under taken and carried forward by commit tees in this bureau, are trade excur sions, needs in retail trade legisla tion, and retailers' welfare work. The plan Is to give to the retail merchant all the aid possible by directly provid ing for some of his most evident needs. In this way the Chamber of Cor-ierce becomes of special service to the merchants of Portland." Boyd, of Portland, are among the latest arrivals at the Hotel Clark, lxs Angeiea. J. G.

Thorough Grasp "Of Facta and Care fnl Discussion of Topic Are Credited to Speaker Every Address Is Convincing. BY EDITH KNIGHT HOLLIES. Mary Antin is coming to Portland to lecture. Students of literature, those who are interested in the present-day immigra tion problems and all who have made a study of tho achievements of this in teresting woman, are taking note of the date. The time will be the night of March 31; the place, the White Temple; the sponsors for the lecture, the Council of Jewish Women; the subject, "They Who Knock at Our Gates An Illumina tion of the Immigration Problem." Mrs. Julia Marquam, a prominent clubwoman of this city, who has met Miss Antin and frequently heard her lecture, said yesterday of the approach ing appearance of the celebrated wom an: "I think Portland will be fortunate to have her here. In the Forum courses in Boston whenever Miss Antin spoke the audiences packed the hall. Pro fessors from Harvard and Tale, states men and authors were among her most interested auditors. Convincing; Message Delivered. "In her speaking she is intense. She is so much interested in her subject that she carries everyone along with her and inspires all who hear her. She has a message to give, and she presents it with a directness that is convinc ing." , Mrs. Marquam said that she regarded Mary Antin as one of the most distin guished women of the day. With the opening of the Panama Canal people of the Pacific Coast are expecting a certain amount of immigra tion, and it is on this subject that Miss Antin will give her views. They are deducted after much Investigation and actual experience. Mary Antin in private life is Mrs. Amadeus W. Grabau, wife of a Colum bia University professor. Her ability was early recognized by her family, who made every sacrifice to keep her in school. Dr. Hale Aided Education. Her teachers gave her all possible encouragement and help. Dr. Edward Everett Hale also became much inter ested in her development, and Josephine Lazarus inspired her Tvith ideals. vv ith characteristic racial persis tency in the face of adversity and often among the most discouraging surround ings she pursued her studies, graduat- ng from the Girls Latin School of Boston and entering Barnard College in New York. Today Mary Antin is an ardent woman. A progressive In the best sense, a democrat of democrats, she burns with an equal flame for all of whatever race, color or creed. If all mmigrants were of the Antin type there could be no immigration prob lem. Address on Problem Landed. A prominent man who has heard her pays her this tribute 'I have rarely listened to a more soul-stirring address. In her simple. yet masterly manner, she presented her theme. She spoke quietly, but the large audience had no difficulty in hearing her. She had no recourse to the usual devices of the platform speaker, yet no orator could have gained the attention of the audience quicker nor held it longer than she did. And what a wealth of information she gave in one address." Mrs. Julius Louisson, who Is chair man of the committee of arrangements for the presentation of Mary Antin by the Council of Jewish Women, has as assistants Mrs. Solomon Hirsch, Miss Mary Frances Isom, Mrs. Julius Lippitt, "Miss Josephine Hammond, of Reed College; Mrs. S. M. Blumauer, Miss Ruth Catling, Miss Getta Wasser man. Dr. C. H. Chapman, Sigmund Slchei, Isaac Swett, Marshall Dana and R. C. Nelson. K: JtS-lsS" imttnimmimimiimiiinmmi'ii. liiiiiiiiiiiiy iiiiiiu..

"By that I mean to say our firm will take memberships In the New Chamber of Commerce to an jTmount equal to our present contributions to all the business organizations. While I believe the cost of consolidation would actually be tess In an ordinary year, I think subscriptions this year should be as large as any year In Portland's his tory. There will be a heavy exposi tion travel, and we must take care of Portlands visitors, see that they are properly directed and the proper hos pitality is shown them. "When we can make one subscription of the size that will cover the entire needs for all the work to be done by business organizations, we then know Just exactly what this public work is costing, and we know we will not be pestered throughout the season by future calls. We are willing to make the subscription for three years, and heartily commend the Businesslike plan which makes this possible. "I was a member of the Board of Governors of the Commercial Club under President H. N. Cake when the great work to advertise and develop Oregon was undertaken 11 years ago. At that time the Commercial Club was the only organization in the Northwest willing to undertake so broad a work. Since then other organizations have stepped Into the field and there has been considerable duplication. This. I believe, will be eliminated by a con solidation along business lines.

The most effective remedy to . correct this condition is the com bination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin, known as Dr. Cald well's Syrup Pepsin. This is a natural, pleasant-tasting remedy, gentle yet positive In action, and quickly relieves indigestion, con stipation, sick headache, belch ing, etc. Drug stores sell Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin at fifty cents and one dollar a bottle, and in thousands of homes it is the indispensable family rem edy.

Grapefruit grown in Florida are of sur passing quality when fully ripened on the trees. The Florida Citrus Exchange is a co-opera tive, non-profit making body of grapefruit and orange growers. Its members believe that their best interests are advanced by protecting consumers against im mature and unripe fruit. So they leave the product of their groves on the trees until ripe, then pick and pack it with such care that it will ship well and keep well. Only white-gloved workers handle their fruit.
