Astronomy to Be Topic. "Astrono
my: Worlds In the Making" will be the
subject of a lecture by Dr. William
Conger Morgan tonight at Turn Hall,
Fourth and Yamhill streets, at 8 o'clock.
Dr. Morgan holds astronomical views
which differ considerably from those
of Dr. Percival Lowell who spoke at
the Lincoln High School Tuesday and
Wednesday evenings. The school with
which Dr. Morgan agrees holds that it
is as yet unproved that Mars is in
habited and looks upon the theory of
Mars as covered with artificial canals
as absurd, owing to the comparative
size of the canals, etc. The meeting
is free and open to the public.

will not come to Portland for the tem
porary supply engagement that was
originally planned.

Furniture Business Shares in
Prosperity, Too.
Increases of From 20 to 30 Per Cent
Reported and Better Collections
Credited to Prohibition.
TIE furniture business, along with
all other lines of retail trade, has
increased In Portland since the first
of the year. Not only are the sales
much heavier, but collections are bet
ter. Increasing payrolls, due to the
new shipbuilding industry and the re
vival of the lumber business, are held
responsible for much of the new busi
ness.
Prohibition is accedited with the Im
provement in collections. Following
are some testimonials that speak for
themselves:
Fred Jenning, of Henry Jenning: &
Sons: "We are doing fully 20 per
cent more business now than we did
a year ago. September, 1916, was
much better than September. 1915.
This situation Is all the more signifi
cant when It is remembered that last
year we were operating two stores
one at Second and Morrison and the
other at Fiffh and Washington. This
year we nave only our Fifth and Wash
ington store. In other words, we are
doing more business in our one store
this year than we did in both stores
last year. Prohibition has helped our
sales and Improved our collections."
T. H. Edwards; Edwards Company.
Furniture: "My business has increased
22 per cent over the same period of
last year. The outlook is promising."
J. G. Mack, J. G. Mack & Co.. Furni
ture: "September shows a decided im
provement. When the election is out
of the way, I look for still better results."
Ira Powers. Powers Furniture Com
pany: "Our books show an Increase of
30 per cent. Collections are much bet
ter and conditions are steadily improving."
William Gadsby, William Gadsby St
Sons: "I am pleased to report an In
crease for the present year of about
2o per cent. When the war ends and
ships are released to carry away the
lumber, I look for a period of great
prosperity that will last several years.

CARD OF" THANKS.
We. the undersigned, wish to thank
the many friends of Mrs. Worick for
their kind assistance and for the floral
oienngs as tokens of sympathy.
J. WORICK.
MRS. FRANK ELEY.
Adv. MB. AND MJiS. iiAIiL SAVAG
manager of Association Men. the offi
cial organ of the international Y. M.
C. A., who arrived in Portland yester
day on his tour of the associations of
the country in the Interests of his
magazine, makes these predictions. On
his way he is addressing advertising
clubs and business men generally on
the trade opportunities that are of
fered by the demands of hundreds of
millions, of people to whom products
other than native are now largely un
known. " "America Has Much to Learn."
Before a meeting of Portland Y. M.
C. A. secretaries yesterday he pointed
out the value of his publication as a
means of cementing the membership
to the association, and advocated a
campaign of education on what the
Y. M. C. A. Is achieving in all parts
of the world. He will address the Ad
Club today.
"In the task of rebuilding the world
America will, of necessity, take a large
share, financially," he says. "But
America must learn how to create,
develop and finance her foreign trade.
We have hitherto been penny wise and
pound foolish in this respect, and have
much to learn, especially in regard
to the exploded idea that "What is
good enough for us is good enough
for the foreigner.' The foreigner
wants what he wants as he wants it,
not as we think he ought to want it,
either as to quality or make up."
Small Profit Only Permitted.
Exportation of beet sugar from Ore
gon and shipment of products from
factories and mills are urged by Mr.
Wllson-Lawrenson after years spent
in service in the Far East. He points
out that British India alone imports
$40,000,000 worth of sugar annually in
spite of a production of 2.500,000 tons.
Cotton importations now amount to
$220,000,000 a year, a large share of
which might be sent from the United
States.
In developing this trade he points
out that the Pacific Coast business
man must make his margin of profit
small and lower the quality of his
goods to meet the demands of 300,
000.000 people, most of whom are lim
ited to the bare necessities of life.
South America Is 11 men It Field.
Eastern factories will come to the
Pacific Coast as soon as an effort is
made to develop the foreign trade. h
says. Some of them are even now
planning for extensions in this direc
tion. With the expansion of business
to the Orient will come increased pay
rolls lor Portland, Because of more
factories. Increased demand for neces
sities and, consequently, more pros
perity, he points out.
While there are opportunities In
South America. Mr. Wilson-Lawrenson
believes that invasion of that field will
be a difficult undertaking for the
American business man because of for
eign interests already established, and
points -out- the almost untouched com
mercial resources that the Far East
holds for an aggressive exporter.
