En Boute to Exposition Trade
Revival Message Brought,
Portland was carefully inspected for
, "Wild West" features -yesterday by a
distinguished party of Sew York City
officials and their friends, few of whom
had been In the Northwest before. At
finding none they were at first perhaps
just a bit' disappointed, then franKly
delighted, and Anally, at the end of a
sightseeing automobile trip conducted
by Mark. Woodruff, publicity agent for
the Chamber of Commerce, warm In
their praise of the city, its beautiful
scenery, its superb roses, its fine air
and its clean streets.
Especially its clean streets. One of
the party confessed that from all they
had heard and been led to expect, they
thotieht Portland, being so extremely
far West, would be, er just a little
wild and wooly and Western. That it
was not. but to the contrary rigrht tip
to date, pleased them immensely and
prave them a different idea of this Pa
cific Coast region.
New York Official in farty.
The party is on its way to the San
Francisco Kxpositlon to take part in
the celebration there .next Wednes
day of New York Day. It consisted
of Lewis H. Pounds, borough president
of Brooklyn, and Mrs. Pounds; Charles
T. White, city tax commissioner of
New York: Aldermen Frank I Dowl
insr. Can. M. Bedell and F. H. Stevenson;
Albert K. Hull, secretary of the New
York City Commission to the Fair; A.
K. McKenzie and Mrs. McKenssie; Mrs.
H. T. Ayen and Miss E. R. Crane, of
Brooklyn.
Mayor Mitchel, of New York, who
was to have been In the party, slipped
off ahead of time for a bear hunt
in Wyoming-. He will Join the party in
ban Francisco, however.
It was lucky for Portland's reputa
tion as a staid town in good standing
that old Chief Wallulatum. the 103-year-old
Huge of the Wascos, with his
head-dress of eagles' feathers, bear
claws and beads, left for his reserva
tion last week after tarrying here
through a Federal Court hearing. As
it was. not an Indian was seen on the
automobile ride. '
In extenuation of the "Wild West"
expectations of the New Yorkers, it
should be explained that though they
stopped at Vancouver and Victoria, B.
C, Portland is the first United States
town on the Coast that they have visit
ed. Their train did not stop at Se
attle. Business Revives In Kait.
Orie piece of good news to everyone
In Portland, confirming other reports
of the same nature, was brought by
Tax Commissioner White. He said
that business is picking np in all lines
in New York- City, to such an extent
that it has even affected real estate
values.
"There can be no question that busi
ness is better," said Mr. White. "I at
tribute the gain largely to the war, as
manufacturers of all kinds are work
ing overtime to fill war orders. This
does not apply , only to manufacturers
of ammunition and other war material,
but is true of almost all lines, for the
allies must have American goods. This
lias provided work for the unemployed,
and has brought about a generally
healthy business condition, which finds
expression even in real estate values.
"Although tax collections do not re
flect hard times to a great degree, be
cause unpaid taxes become a first lien
on the property, taxes have been com
ing in faster than they did last year.
It is not too much to say that a con
dition of real prosperity now exists."
CltWens Entertain Party.
The party of New Yorkers left New
York City Just a week ago. They are
traveling In - their own car and came
West over the Canadian Pacific.
Shortly after their arrival in Portland
yesterday, Mark Woodruff, acting for
the Chamber of Commerce, called on
them at the Hotel Portland and pre
sented each of the women with corsage
bouquets of Portland roses. He also
notified T. O. Hague, president of the
New York Society in Portland, and
with Mr. Hogue and C. W. Stinger, city
passenger agent of the Southern Pacific,
took them on the automobile ride.
Mr. Woodruff rode in one of the autos,
Mr. Stinger In another and Mr. Hague
in the third, so that each auto had a
Portland man to explain the city to
them.
They were especially pleased with
the Portland residence district, and at
one place on Portland Heights every
body in -the party got out to examine a
rose hedge that struck them as being
particularly beautiful'.
The party left for San Francisco at
8:15 o'clock last night.
By a coincidence, though Mayor
Mitchel was not present with the party
in person, he was in Portland yester
day. That is. he was here pictorlally,
for an enterprising camera man snapped
his picture as he started on his bear
hunt from Cody, Wyo., and it was on
the programme at the Sunset Theater.

RESIGNATION SENTIIi
Rev. A. L. Hutchison Asks for
Action by Board Thursday.
PIEDMONT CALL ACCEPTED
Pastor of Third Presbyterian Church
Will Leave With Good Wishes of
Congregation Union With
Hawthorne Is Expected.
Rev. A. L. Hutchison, who has been
pastor -of the .Third Presbyterian
Church, East Pine and East Thirteenth
streets, placed his resignation in the
hands of the session and church yester
day morning, and announced a congre
gational meeting for next Thursday
night to act on the. resignation. Mr.
Hutchison has received a unanimous
call to become pastor of the Piedmont
Presbyterian Church and . has accepted
this call, subject to the decision of
the meeting of the Third Church con
gregation next Thursday evening.
Resignation of Mr. Hutchison aa
pastor of the Third Church and the
call to the Piedmont Church is re
garded aa a highly important move
ment in Portland Presbyterian circles
at this time. He came to the Third
Church from Tacoma about three years
ago on the resignation of Rev. John
Parsons, and quickly took a prominent
place in the Portland Presbytery, and
last year was moderator. The TMrd
Church has maintained- a good growth.
last year a movement took form for
the union of the Third Church with the
Hawthorne Park Presbyterian Chirch,
both congregations having voted in
favor of this union, and measures have
been taken looking to the union of the
two congregations In various ways.
Rev. Mr. Hutchison has advocated this
union.
Rev. J. E. Snyder, pastor of the Pied
mont Presbyterian Church, resigned
several months ago and accepted the
pastorate of the Pendleton Presbyterian
Church, leaving Piedmont without a
pastor for the time being. After much
consideration "the congregation ex
tended Rev. Mr. Hutchison a unanim
ous call, which he accepted on the con
dition the Third Church acquiesces in
his resignation, which It is expected
will be done.
Piedmont is the third Presbyterian
Church in point of importance and
membershp in the city. It has a new
modern edifice costing $40,000. which
was finished and dedicated shortly be
fore Mr. Snyder resfgned. It has a
well appointed manse and is a well
organized working church. The friends
of Rev. Mr. Hutchison are glad to
know that he has accepted the call
to Piedmont Church and will not leave
the Portland Presbytery. The time
when he will begin, his pastorate at
Piedmont Church has not been an
nounced, but will probably be made
known at the congregational mooting.
Rev. -A. I. Hutchison. Who Has.
Resumed From Third Presby
terian Church to Take Mew
Charge.
Members of the session speak in the
highest terms of Rev. Mr. Hutchison
' Resignation of Rev. Mr. Hutchison
yesterday is expected to hasten the

darkness, when we seemed to be voy
aging upomi raging sea, and could not
make land. The hurricane was against
us; ourjIaster was not with us, or,
at leastTeemed not to be. - We feared
to be engulfed forever. But just at
the crucial moment when human
strength was gone, the Master comes i
to us out of the storm walking upon
the sea. i
"There are the storms of passion.
There are also storms of doubt, pe
riods when one's mental foundations
are shaken. Emanuel Kant in ' his
critique of pure reason speaks of three
great problems concerning which the
reason insists on prosecuting its inves
tigations. -These deal with God. free
dom and immortality.- And I, for one,
Deueve tnat tne Master has had his
eye upon us In the storm, and out. of
it He has brought us to the. sweetness
of clear-eyed faith."
"Pure religion and undeflled before
God and the Father is this, to visit
the fatherless and widows in their af
fliction, and to keep himself unspotted
from the world." 1
With this as his text, the Rev. E.
Olin Eldridge gave a strong sermon
yesterday on A. Compassionate Reli
gion." Dr. Eldridge said:
"James is the apostle of practical
religion. He tells us to manifest our
faith by our works. In this he is in
harmony with the spirit of our times.
which demands that everything shall
be judged by Its application to present
needs. He is here giving us the def
inition, not of a low, but high order
of religion, and says that pure and
undeflled religion is extending the
helping hand and manifesting the
humane spirit. Religion is not simply
passive, it is active. It is doing some
thing for God and humanity. To be
religious is to have the habit of
benevolent and unselfish effort. Pure
and undefiled religion is not pure and
undeflled garments that never brush
against the clothes and dwellings that
would, perhaps, soil them; not pure and
undefiled hands that would be stained
by heartily shaking those that have
been in life s moil and toll: not pure
and undefiled atmosphere, breathed by
no sick and crowded homes. Pure re
ligion and undefiled is personally
meeting, personally greeting,- person
ally helping others. And that, too,
without regard to any return or selfish
interest.
"We must give the ministry of com
passion and sympathy a large place in
our church life if we would succeed in
convincing the world that we are really
Christian,"
Rev. John H.. Boyd, pastor of the
First Presbyterian Church, yesterday
morning returned to his pulpit after an
absence of a few days on his country
place near Mount Hood, where he and
his family retired following the burial
of sMr. Boyd, who died recently after
several years of invalidism.
Mr. Boyd took for his morning ser
mon's theme "At Home With the Lord."
He said:
"We always have wondered and al
ways will wonder what becomes of our
loved ones after death, but we know
nothing yet, because of man's'lncapacity
to conceive of life beyond the grave.
There are many changes brought about
through death, but we are told these
three things do abide, faith, hope and
love. In my bereavement, in the shadow
and darkness where I stand today, my
comfort is in the Lord. . I feel that my
loved one is climbing onward and on
ward in that heavenly life with the
Lord beyond the land of defeat."
