DALLAS GIVES WELCOME
Children Please Prima Donna, Who
Sings for Them and Promises
to Return Friends Living
at Ecola Receive Visit.
DALLAS, Or.. Aug. 20. (Special.)
"It Is a wonderful country," said Mad
ame Ernestine Schumann-Heink today
as she stood on the crest of Illlhee
Hill, near Dallas. As far as hpr eyes
could reach the famous prima donna
saw orchards and hopyards and those
thingrs she loves best farms with
children on them.
As the automobile with E. C. Klrk
patrlck, .Mayor of Dallas, at the wheel
drew into town from the throats of
hundreds of children came the words
of "My Country "Tis of Thee." Madame
Schumann-Heink hugged and kissed
the little children and then sang for
them. In answer to their request she
chose "Way Down Upon the Suwanee
River." As she sang "All- This World
Am Sad and Dreary" her voice rang
with pathos. For then Schumann-Heink
was . the bereaved mother mourning aa
her friends say, too much, even for
the loss of her son, killed on a Euro
pean battlefield.
Retnrn Trip Promised.
"If I had my music I would sing
more," she said, and Dallas knew she
meant it. She promised she would come
back to Dallas and sing again, She,
called good-by to the children as her
car moved away and added a warn
ing to little Jessie Boyd, "Don't forget
the picture you eaid you would send
me."
In the tonneau of the prima donna's
automobile were piled, flowers that the
children had given .her. There were so
many flowers that she asked the May
or to stop at the Catholic Church, fine
decorated the Virgin's altar and. re
mained alone five minutes In prayer.
From the church the run was made
to Illlheo and then to the home of Mr.
and Mrs. I. L. Patterson at Eola. Mad
' ame chumann-Heink's eon and Phil
Patterson were classmates at Culver
Military School and the Diva and the
Patterson boy became great friends.
After pictures Bad been taken on the
lawn of the Pattefcon liome refresh
ments were served to the entire party.
Prom the Patterson home the singer
was driven to Dallas to receive some
registered packages here for her, and
with "God bless you, I will come again,"
Schumann-Heink left for the Nickum
ranch on Mill Creek, 12 miles from
Dallas.
In Madame's lap as she passed out
Of the city 'Were baskets of peaches
and flowers and on her face the gen
uine "mutter" smile that gripped Dal
las today. Madame Schumann-Heink
will leave the Nickum ranch tomorrow
for Portland. Tuesday she will leave
Portland, for Grosemont, Cat.
Nickum Ranch Pleases
In search of a home where she can
pass her vacations now, and a perma
nent home for the years after she dis
continues her career, Madame came to
Polk County. She la in love with the
Nickum 800-"fc.cre stock ranch on Mill
Creek near Buell, and though she has
not purchased the property, she has
formed plans for the further stocking
of the place, particularly with fine
hogs. She Eaid she hoped to find the
right man and bring him here to make
sausages. If the beer amendment
passes Madame said she would put In
hops and prunes. She wishes to buy
some prune land for herself or for one
of her cons.
"You have hops and prunes prunes
which In my Bohemia they use for the
finest liquor, and you are a dry state,"
commented the great contralto. At the
German settlement of Salt Creek,
where the thrifty former citizens of the
fatherland are living, Madame had a
drtnk of the famed Voth water and
conversed in German with the farm
ers and their families.

HONOLULU, Aug. 19. (Special.)
The hands - around - the - Pacific

fertile brain of Alexander Hume Ford

wide interest that one wonders whether
it is not really the advance guard of a

fulness, without a feeling of "I am
better than thou," have brought about
a spirit of friendship and friendliness
between all nationalities in Honolulu,
that is truly splendid. At one of these
iiincheons there were 18 different na

separate table and a speaker. A Rus

Mr. Ford Is a man of such great men
tal activity and energy that he is a ver
itable dynamo, starting vital currents
that are reaching out all around this
great Pacific Ocean, electrifying the
people and charging the whole at
mosphere with a spirit of helpfulness.
This man is one of Herbert Kauf
mans dreamers, one of "the chosen
few, the blazers of the way, who never
wears doubt's bandages on his. eyes."
He is not physically a strong man, but
the amount of brain work: that he ac
complishes is marvelous and the en
thusiasm he imparts to others is be
yond conception.
Six years ago he established In Hon
olulu the Mid-Pacinc Magazine, that
gives him a medium through which he
reaches the hosts of people to whom he
wisnes to send nis messages lor this
great around-the-Paciflc movement.
The-men of affairs of Honolulu final
ly realized his unselfish motives for
promotion and Bent him ' on a trip
around the world to propagate his
theories, with the result that he . or
ganized or helped to organize in al
most all the countries about the Pa
cific Around-the-Paciflc clubs that have
pledged themselves to unite in bring
ing all nations together in peace and
helpfulness. Their plan now is to unite
all the Pacific nations in a universal
peace movement, with a clearing-house
in Honolulu. The clubhouse already is
guaranteed and here they are to have
a permanent exhibit from each nation.
Unity 9t Nations Aim.
When on his trip Mr. Ford inter
viewed the rulers of nations, dined them
and put his proposition to them that
It is a matter of getting together and
not a matter of exploitation that the
nations of the Pacific need.

was officially, commissioned by a for
mer Governor of Hawaii, ex-Governor
Frear, who was at that time president
of the Hands-Around-the-Paciflc Club,
to visit all the Pacific lands for the
purpose of obtaining the necessary co
operation of the heads of all nations
as well as their great transportation
companies and commercial bodies, to
unite in this movement to induce a
great tide of round-the-Paclflc travel
that would bring them all Into a better
understanding, cement friendshlD.
make for peace and help the people of
tne outside -world better to understand
the possibilities of the Pacific lands.
From the very first It was foreseen
that all the great travel bureaus siust
band together and work for the com
mon good and now finally there is
to do a great convention to meet In
Honolulu in January. 1817. This fol
lows :lose upon the end of the San
Diego exposition and Just precedes the
Philippine Exposition. , The Honolulu
Pan-Pacific Club will act as host to
the visiting delegates from all Gov
ernmental and tqurist bureaus, from all
Pacific lands. It is their plan to Issue
invitations to the one person most ac
tive in these bureaus to attend ' this
convention as the guest of the Pan
Pacific Club, this invitation not trans
ferable, although eachii bureau may
send as many delegates as it wishes.
The club also will extend invitations
to the representatives of all the great
transportation companies of the Pa
clfic, steamship s.nd railway.

Tourists are more often the first to
carry home the news of opportunities
for homes and investments, and th
prosperity and upbuilding of one coun

During' the terrible war raging In
