BIRTH CONTROL IS
PRIEST
CRIME
SAYS
TWO OF THE "BELLES OF LONG AGO" AT VETERANS PARTY SATURDAY NIGHT.
Nation Practicing It Doomed
to Extinction, Declares
Rev. Father Black.
MEN VOTARIES EXECRATED
Charge Made That Advocates Place
Themselves Above God and Con
tent Preordained Laws to Their
Own Knin and Damnation.
Rev. Father Black, pastor of St.
Francis Catholic Church, declared in
sermon before his congregation y ester
day birth control to be "a hellish prac
tioe, contrary to the natural laws gov
erning humanity, contrary to 'the posi
tive divine law. whose advocates are
either dreadfully wicked or mere
simps; a crime that cries out to heaven
for vengeance louder than did the blood
of Abel against his brother Cain.
His explanation for preaching such
a sermon was that it was demanded by
the widespread practice of birth con
tro! and the fact that even people o
his faith had followed it in individual
instances.
"TtiB family is the unit upon which
the state depends for its life." asserted
Father Black, "and the commission of
any act that tends to disintegrate the
family unit is punishable oy extinction.
Therefore It is certain that me prac
tice of birth control will bring the Na
tion that practices it to extinction and
damnation.
Family Organization Defined.
"The father is the visible representa
tive of God. He is the head of the
family toward whom the eyes of his
own are- directed, whose wm iney
obey. He is the supporter of the family,
like God. giving tnem 'meat in due sea
son." His place is aivinely ordered ana
decreed.
"The mother is the representative of
divine Providence in her family circle.
liar -are extends to all things. Her
work is performed within the sanctuary
of the home without noise, one per
forms every Christian duty. Such is
the position of the truly Christian
woman; not the one whose maneuvers
are recorded on the daily society pages
of the press, nor whose picture appears
in the Sunday papers.
'Such is the exalted position of men
and woman in the bonds of holy matri
mony. And such it should be always.
So important is this divinely consti
tuted unit that the well-being of all
nations depends on the sacred rever
. ence of the family ties.
"But. in the face of these divinely
revealed facts, what are wo to think
of actual conditions today? Not loni!
ago I spoke of the horrible subject now
so rampant birth control.
Men Snare In Kxecratlon.
"I have been quoted as putting all
the blame for this practice on the
woman. 1 want to disabuse your minds
of that. You all know what I have
said of the women who promote birth
control, but now I want to emphasize
those words and multiply their inten
sity if it be possible, in application, to
such monsters passing as husbands and
under the form of men who practice
birth control.
"It is simply unspeakable when we
consider how far this birth control
blight of perdition is infecting and de
stroying. And the advocates of this
hellish monster have the effrontery to
flaunt their infamy in the face of the
public as though it were a virtue.
"Quality, and not quantity, seems to
be the slogan. How can a tree that is
rotten to the core produce fruit of
quality?
"It is a fact that any force that acts
contrary to any natural law must be
lost. It Is therefore plain and a scien
tiflc fact that any nation that opposes
the natural laws that are supposed to
govern It must suffer extinction. Since
the nation is founded upon the family
the family must remain a clean and
solid unit.
"What has become of men when they
seem to fight God and nature by
putting themselves above God and con
testing his preordained laws? Why do
men of intelligence and reason Invite
suicide by a sanctioning of such an In
famous practice?"

scale at Second and Columbia streets.
Later the Institution enlarged its scope
and became an Industrial home. Prop
erty was obtained later at East Thirty-
first and Glisan streets, and the refuge
home was started. It was known as
the Portland Refuge Home for Women.
It was incorporated in 1S97.
Charles E. Crittenton, an Eastern
philanthropist, visited Portland soon
afterward and volunteered to make it
one of a chain of institutions that he
had financed wholly or in part. There
are 65 of these homes in the United
states, all founded in honor of the
memory of Mr. Crittenton's little
daughter, who died at the age of 4
years. A small amount of state aid
is received, and the benefit tonight was
planned to augment the treasury.
The home Is run at small cost, there
eing only two paid employes, a super
intendent and a nurse. The girls do
all the housework. It costs buff 9 or

1 BT LEONE CASS BAER.
Someone once said "we would be un
happy if we knew everything that is
going on or coming off."
Possibly the reference was not to
clothes. But the application holds
good.
At least it held good yesterday at
the May Tully Clothes Revue at the
Orpheum. If all the women in the au
dience had known all that was going
on these models, and all that was
coming off, there would have been
wailing and gnashing of teeth.
But, we didn t know until it was
all over, and then all we could do was
go home and do mental gymnastics to
see if our last year's blue charmeuse
could possibly be made over into a
Lucile gown of pink brocade with one
shoulder strap and futurisne skirt.
Truly the clothing and unclothing of
this big fashion show act will worry
tire lives out of a lot of placid wives
with disappearing chins and faith in
their husbands.
Sins and Shins Shown.
The fashion show, like charity, un
covers a multitude of sins also shins
and backs.
Sixteen maids, one right after the
other, step out of a huge frame and
into our emotions. Apparently there's
dresses and things that go with 'em for
every minute of the day. "Mi-lady"
is decked for motoring, boating, ski
ing, dancing, dining, sleeping, driving.
canoeing, aviating, skating, mountain
climbing and every function but a
shower-bath. Even Mother. Eve, look
ing remarkably youthful is shown in
figleaf model.
One girl, Mabel Hamilton, and Ben
Bard as a Beau Brummel, aid in giving
the display a sort of story. The list of
exhibitions of dinner gowns, theater
wraps and dancing frocks sounds like
directory of Fifth avenue. Every
color and its relations is shown, fur:
that .must have left Alaska almost de
nuded, hand-embroideries, lovely laces,
the fruits of silkworm and man to the
um of $100,000 are shown in such lux
urious abandon that one no longer
wonders that men swear about women's
wear.
Other Acts on BUI.
Half a dozen other acts are on the
bill. There's Chuck Riesner. a capable,
clever comedian with an irrepressible
fund of humor. He Is assisted by
nifty little maid named Henrietta
Gores. Gores is a good name to be on
a fashion show bill. They're wearing

dances and feeds partner "Chuch
who "wrote the act" and puts it over
well. There s an interesting sketch
too. It is melodramatic in -tone with
Arthur Sullivan and Merce'des Clark in
the principal roles, the man as a re
formed crook who is going to try the
old game, now that starvation faces
wife and baby. But he goes "straight'
that's the name of the sketch and it
has a real thrill in its climax and is
well acted.

The Herbert Germaine trio of gym
nasts stage a sensational feature in a
loop-the-loop event, and Master Frankie
Murphy opens the bill in long-drawn-out
songs. He is billed as the boy
tenor from California which is per
haps fortunate for California.
Xnal Militiamen I) rax River for
II. Ganimie and C. Kirkpatrick.
Two boats' crews from the Oregon
Naval Militia, comprising 16 men, in
charge of Lieutenant Beckwith, made
an unsuccessful search yesterday for
the bodies of Harry Gammie and Charles
Kirkpatrick, the two young men who
were drowned in the Wiiiamette River
near Rock Island February 13.
The cutter attached to the United
States cruiser Boston, the training ship
of the Naval Militia, was manned by
members of the militia recruited from
the Washington High School, and a
whaleboat contained other men from
the Naval Militia. Paymaster Dow and
R. I. Heller, pay clerk, were members
of the party.

Attorneys Uncertain How to Pro
ceed, as C. M. Idleman Does Not
Know if He Is Retained in
Breach-of-Promise Case.
"One of Joe Howard's famous fibs!'
This was how Mrs. Edah Wither
spoon summed -up the rumor that her
$50,000 breach of promise suit against
the popular Orpheum headliner, son
writer and musical comedy favorite
had been dismissed.
"Of course it hasn't been dismissed.
I was not vindictive and so I let him
have time in which to answer, but 1
certainly did not authorize anyone to
say the case is dismissed," declared the
pretty little widow, who claims that
J.oe wooed her last Spring and then re
fused to wed.
W. A. Burke, Mrs. Witherspoon's at
torney, echoed her statement that the
announcement alleged to have been
made by Mr. Howard "is a falsehood.
"There is nothing to it," he declared.
As yet no answer to the suit has been
filed. Mr. Burke, said, but he thought
that in all probability there would be
one this week.
C. M. Idleman. who was asked t.o act
as attorney for Howard, says he doesn't
feel sure that he Is his attorney.
"Early last week I received a tele
gram from Mr. Howard stating that he
had forwarded court costs," explained
Mr. Idleman, adding, "but, as I have
never heard a word from him since, i
don't know whether or not I am to be
considered his attorney. It would ap
pear he treats us and our courts rather
lightly."
Mr. Idleman also stated that the
breach of promise case had not been
dismissed. The plaintiff didn't do it
and the oppositiom. hadn t put in an
appearance, but to give Howard a
chance Mr. Idleman had asked Mr.
Burke for an extension of time, and
this had been granted.
Mrs. Witherspoon filed her suit
against the Orpheum star February 4.
He left immediately for San Francisco
to fulfill his engagement on the cir
cuit. Mrs. Witherspoon declared that
Howard had been introduced to her by
her father, in the Hotel Multnomah,
and had subsequently made love to her
and proposed marriage. Howard's
statement was to the effect that he had
said he would marry the widow, but
he was only joking at the time.
Mrs. Witherspoon lives at 7432 Fifty
sixth avenue. Southeast, with her par
ents, Mr. and Mrs. G. L. Reiman, and
her 16-year-old son. She declares that
to the best of her knowledge and be
lief Howard was not married to Mabel
McCane when he asked her to be his
wifo and settle down to an Ideal home
life.

Repetition Promised Today.
Portland enjoyed a balmy. Summer
like Sunday yesterday. And what's
more, today is going to be equally
salubrious, if the reading of th
weather observer is correct. He said
early last night in his forecast that
the day would be fair with a fluctuat-
ng barometer to give a threat of pos
sible precipitation.
The maximum temperature yester
day was 50, the minimum 40, making
the mean 45. This latter is just one
degree warmer than it was the same
day last year. Yesterday had the ad
vantage of a rich, glowing, radiant
sun to mellow and make appealing
the otherwise crisp atmosphere.
-That the Portlander appreciated the
day's gift was made evident by the
throngs that walked along or rode
through the streets during the day.
It seemed like Summer and the
Portland Railway, Light & Power
Company made it seem more realistic
because, anticipating the heavy traf
fic, it put on its Summer schedule of
extra service, particularly on the
Portland Heights and Rose City lines.
The cars on these lines were crowded
uring the afternoon especially. Traf
fic generally over all other lines was
heavy.

Portland, including the Columbia

H. sr. Boyajohn, general manager

from the situation at the City Hall
that the Boyajohn-Arnold -Company
and Pederson are in any agreement of
any kind.
"The report at the City Hall as to
an understanding ot some Kina De-
tween Hans Pederson and the Boyajohn-Arnold

Boyajohn. "We were absolutely sin

There is an opinion general among
the contractors that Pederson will
