The 27th annual convention of the Episcopal Church in the diocese of Ore gon, which opened yesterday in Trinity parish-house, celebrates the 6-d anni versary of the founding of the church in OrcKon and marks an epoch of his-tory-maJtinsr for the church in this atate. A new enthuslsam, a broader spirit of optimism than has prevailed for a long- time Beemed to pervade yes terday's sessions, and In .spite of hard times and many discouragements the clergy and laity assembled from vari ous parts of the diocese seemed to get the spirit that prompted Bishop Sum ner in his address when he said. "Let us be up and doing and pressing for wh rd." The most important act of business of the afternoon was the adoption of a resolution and the indorsing of recom mendations that Bishop Pcott School be closed permanently. The school, according- to the report of the secre tary, John K. Kollock. has been run at a considerable loss. Since Its establish ment in Yamhill County It has not been patronised, and even when established In Portland was a losing proposition lor several years. nioeeae (Jets on Business Basis. Tlvery measure that w ill fret the dio cese on a businesslike basis is being considered, at this convention. The advice of President Kerr, of Ore gon Agricultural College, and Professor J-C. D. Sheldon, of University of Orespn. -was quoted by the bishop regarding the expediency of closing the school. The passing of Bishop Scott School recalls to old-time Tortlanders Its founding by Bishop Morris and the many classes of young men, now among the leading citizens, who were among its graduates. The convention opened yesterday with a service in Trinity Church, cele bration of the holy communion and the bishop's address. Business began in the parish house and the Rev. John T. Rice was elected secretary, with the Rev. E. II. Clark as assistant. The Rev. Charles W. Baker, former secretary, declined to accept the 'honor for another term. Luncheon was served in the parish house by the women of Trinity parish. The tables were adorned with roses and a bountiful repast was supplied. Mrs. A. A. Morrison, wife of the rector of the parish, was assisted by a large number of prominent women. dominations Are Made. The nominations were made yester day and the polls will be open today from 12 until 2 o'clock for election, of trustees of various funds, delegates to the eighth synod, which will meet in Oakland. Cal., In August; for treasurer, registrar and standing committees. In his address, which preceded the business of the day, Bishop Sumner said: "I cannot emphasize the fact too strongly that all matters pertaining to diocesan finances have been, are being and will be looked after most care fully. It was a regrettable fact that for reasons not entirely clear the ex secretary for Bishop Bcadding did not turn over the account books which he had kept for the bishop, who was a corporation sole in charge of coneider able trust funds. These funds came Into the possession of Bishop Scadding with a statement prepared after the death of Bishop Morris, showing their value and in some instances their object "With this statement at hand we have checked up the securities and I am quite certain that the principal of very fund is conserved. Fund Shows Growth. "The total of the trust shows a srrat lfying increase during Bishop Scad ding's cpiscopscy, so that we have every reason to believe that even though no accounts are available show ing the receipts and expenditures of these years, that undoubtedly they were accounted for to Bishop Scadding from time to time. "The bishop's fund," as the trust Is railed, is a fund the management of which is left entirely in the hands of the bishop. The income is expended for such objects as the various donors indicated when they established the fund. Failing to do this, the income is expended as the bishop mav desire My predecessors have not felt called upon to report to the convention the amount of the fund. In this they were perfectly within their rights and I have no doubt they acted with wisdom." Bishop Sumner paid high tribute to he memory of his predecessor. Bishop Scadding, whom he teemed "kind and gentle, a man who loved to be to his clergy as a father." Finances Are Discussed. . The financial condition of the dlo eese was discussed at length. He pledged to the church his loyalty, his urst tnougnt, constant care and fer vent prayers, and added: "We are not as men without hope. We must be up and doing and pressing forward Tor the work of the high calling and Christ Jesus. Such is life. We must live it." la his four months of active service, the bishop stated that he had visited all the parishes except Coos Bay and a rew scattering missions. To the archdeacon, the venerable H. T. Chambers, and to the members of the standing committee, the bishop gave credit for loyal assistance and support. If the suggestion of the bishop and of the able men whom he has con sulted is carried out it is probable that the Bishop Scott School, which is a financial failure, will be discontinued. Those who would have inherited the property from which the Bishop Scott Bchool fund is derived are of the same opinion. An action of the court to dissolve this fund and place It in Deeded channels for diocesan work will be necessary. A new wing foT Good Samaritan Hospital -ia desired. St, Helen a Hall : ..-.. . - V: .4- I eJ w 1 XV v 1 V probably will be rebuilt, it being the m of the bishop to have the opening take plnce in the- Kali of 1916. St. Elizabeth's Hall hus been c losed. Scadding- House is doing an active, worth while' work. Mortgages are branded as dead weights by Bishop Sumner. He de clared that it is easier to raise money before than after a debt is incurred. That all treasurers and others in posi tions of financial trust should be bonded was one of the bishop's strong est points made. A rousing plea for Interest in mis sions and for the support of missions and the pension fund for clergymen was made. The clergy were urged to refrain from entering into any com mercial pursuit, but to devote all time and energy to church work. A report that shows far-reaching and varied work came from Rev. K. K. Howard, , chaplain of Good Samaritan Hospital and chairman of the Social Service League. Chaplain Howard has also ministered at All-Saints'. The bishop reported that he had con firmed 114 and had preached sermons in a large number of parishes within the past few months. Tentative plans for St. Helen's Hall were displayed In the convention hall. The board of trustees of this institu tion will be among those elected today. Bishop antes Committees.

Tooke, was drowned in the Columbia River yesterday while playing with other children near the water's edge. A portion of the bank caved in, throwing the litlie fellow Into the river. The alarm was given, but aid came too late to save bim. The body was recovered. Funeral services were held this morning at the house. You are entitled to'have this question answered. We are glad to sub mit, the answer: "Mutual Creamery Company" because farm co-operation and elimina tion of middlemen are the natural outcome of the tendency of the times. The interests of the producing farmer and the company which directly handles his products, become "mutual" by the two working for the elim ination of the useless efforts and waste so characteristic of an entirely competitive system. Co-operation between producers of the raw mate rials and the manufacturers of finished products, even to the extent of . "sharing the profits" of such industry, is a modern-day innovation. Because the predecessor of the Mutual Creamery Company, the Jen sen Creamery Company, had achieved such marked success, it was big enough to adopt this present-day method of doing business when the pew form of company was organized. The officers who built the Jensen Creamery Company are now directing the affairs of the "Mutual" organ ization. They are men of progressive ideas,, who believe in the big, broad principle of "live and let live." They want nothing more than a fair com pensation for investment of money, labor and ability, and offer the pro ducers of creamery products, who make the business possible, an opportu nity to share equally in all the profits that may come to the Mutual Creamery Company. Such an organization, operating on a co-operative, profit-sharing basis, will effect economies that will permit it to furnish the public with the highest quality products at the lowest possible consistent cost. No matter what the price, however, patrons will always get extraordinary values in Mutual Creamery Company products.
