A plea for the co-operation of em
ployes of the forest service In the dis
tribution of warning posters Issued by
the State Board of Health regarding
the contamination of Oregon streams
was the feature of the afternoon ses
sion yesterday of the forest supervis
ors' meeting- at the Multnomah Hotel,
The plea was made by Dr. David N.
Roberg, secretary of the State Board
of Health. Dr. Roberg asserted that
the Board was practically unable to
enforce any of the health laws be
cause of the meager organization of
the Board and the small amount of
funds with which It had to work.
He said that as the forest rangers
.were traveling periodically in almost
every corner of the state the Board
of Health could use them to good ad
vantage. Reports on Watersheds Wanted.
"The cities that build water systems
tiave little time In which to patrol
their watersheds," said Dr. Roberg.
"The State Board has no employes to
do such things and its bands are tied
y lack of funds. The forest rangers
could materially aid us by posting
signs warning campers against con
tamination of water and In reporting
to the State Board of Health what the
conditions are In the watersheds from
which the state's supply of water
- comes."
The matter will he taken up by Dr.
Roberg with the district supervisor.
"The water supply of the state Is its
biggest asset." said Dr. Roberg, "and
we cannot afford to have It contam
inated." Dr. Eric Green, of the American Red
Cross, who has been In Portland and
vicinity for some time giving first-aid
demonstrations, gave a most instruc
tive lecture to the forest supervisors
and other employes yesterday.
First Aid Is Demonstrated.
He showed first the methods of eon
trolling bleeding. In case of the sever
ance of arteries In any part of the
body, and then gave a demonstration
of artificial respiration. Treatment
of superficial wounds and burns re
ceived his attention.
His lecture lasted for more than two
hours and closed with demonstrations
of how to care for a man with a frac
tured leg. Some of the demonstrations
were made by forestry employes who
have taken the first-aid course. As
the ' demonstrations proceeded Dr.
Green made necessary explanations.
Talks on public service filled the
morning session.
That motion pictures, photographs
and magazines are accomplishing much
toward acquainting the public with the
forestry work was the theme of a
paper on "Our Opportunities for Pub
lic Service," read by .Ephriam Barnes,
supervisor of the Mlnam National For
est. Ranger Tells of Duties.
G. D. Brown, of the Fremont forest,
led the discussion of Mr. Barnes' paper.
"Our Responsibilities to Forest Com
munities," was the paper read by C.
ilorgenroth, the only ranger who will
appear on the programme. He has
been in the service many years and Is
well acquainted with all its details.
Jacob Kanzler, secretary of the civic
bureau of the Chamber of Commerce,
talked on "The Spirit of Public Serv
ice." Reminiscences of early days In the

T. Allen and C. S. Chapman.

Merchants of Portland. . business
friends of John P. Plagemann, presi
dent of H. Liebes & Co., gathered at

gave him the surprise of his life. He
was asked by friends to accompany
them to one of the dining-rooms on the
mezzanine floor, where a banquet await

of an ovation before he realized what
was afoot.
Merrily they toasted Mr. Plagemann
during the feast and many were the
complimentary references to the newly
opened Liebes store on Broadway.
Business men of the city predicted suc
cess and pledged their support in mak
ing Mr. Plagemann s dreams come true.
The guest of honor walked into a
darkened room when he was Induced to
step to one corner of the mezzanine
floor. Then the lights were flashed on
and Mr. Plagemann found himself sur
rounded by about 50 friends, who
cheered him to the echo. It was a com
plete surprise, and the entire affair
was a big success from every stand
point. Much Fun la Provided.
Stunts were numerous throughout
the evening. A succession of banner
men paraded through the room, each
with a different emblem that pointed
out the foibles or shortcomings of
some merchant present. These were
hits and attracted much attention and
aroused laugnd.
Proofs from an advance story on the
banquet from The Oregonlan were
passed around to each diner and this
stunt was an immense success. Ref
erences to the participants In the din
ner were pointed and In some cases
cutting. They rang true in some cases
and this only made the jest the keen
er. An orchestra furnished lively airs
for the stunts.
Roscoe Nelson was toastmaster and
his introductions of the speakers were
most happy ones. In each case he
started a laugh and hit upon some
characteristic of those slated for talks,
so that the nerve of the speaker was
tried as he arose to speak.
Business Men Pledge Help.
Compliments innumerable were show
ered upon Mr. Plagemann and H.
Liebes & Co. by those responding to
the toasts of the evening Assurance
of co-operation were given by every
one who spoke and the applause that

Royal Legion Declares Patriotism
More Tlian Theory.
The faculty and trustees of Reed Col
lege are rebuked in a letter adopted by
the Military Order of the Loyal Legion
at its meeting in Portland on March IS.
The specific duties of patriotism, "more
than a theory," are pointed out by the
commandery.
The letter signed by T. M. Anderson,
commander, which links the privileges
of citizenship and the duty of defense,
follows:
Trustees. Reed College Gentlemen: At
the Oregon Commandery of the Military
Order of the Loyal Legion, held on March
IS, the recorder was directed to send you as
trustees the following- memorial:
While we deem it commendable to de
velop a cosmopolitan and humanitarian
spirit In the student body of your Institu
tion, we deem It unwise and detrimental to
lay such emphasis on philanthropy as to
subordinate the more Important duty of pa
triotic endeavor in the minds of students
under your care.
We respectfully ask you to impress upon
the faculty that patriotism is more than a
theory; that it involves specific duties ex
pressed In our oath of allegiance.
"To bear true faith and allegiance to the
United States of America: to defend them
against all enemies, foreign and domestic;
to obey legally-constituted authorities."
Specific duties are Imposed on all officials
In their departments, lawyers in their of
fices, mechanics in their shops, merchants
In their stores, soldiers In the field, seamen
on their ships, and on all kinds and condi
tions of men.
Your honorable body may recall that there
have been indications of late, of forgetful
ness of the fact that with the privileges of
citizenship there is a correlative duty of de
fense. CARS ARE HIT, FOUR HURT
Blinding Rain and Wet Street Is
Blamed for Accident.
Four passengers narrowly escaped
serious Injury when a Jitney, driven by
W. E. . Coovert, 1112 East Sherman
street, bowled over on its side in a
collision with a machine driven by L.
B. Milton, 713 Hawthorne avenue, at
the intersection of Ladd and Elliot

the passengers, sustained a bad cut
over one eye. R. D. McLaren, 500 East
Thirty-third street, and Mrs. V. R.
Trine, 495 East Forty-first street, who
were also riding In the jitney at the
time, were bruised about the face and
body. Mrs. S. A. McCutcheon,' 1190 Mix
ter street, was another passenger in
the Jitney and was hysterical from the
shock but otherwise unhurt.
The Jitney was going northwest on
Ladd avenue at the time of the acci
dent and the delivery car was going
southeast.. The blinding rain and wind
andi the slippery condition of the pave
ments are considered to have been re
sponsible for the accident.

Jitney's side being caved in as a result
of being thrown over and the hood and
machinery of the other machine being
considerably damaged.
Neither driver was Injured.

Dagmar Inez Kelly, contralto, who
was to have taken part in the concert,
suffered from cold and was unable to
be present. The vocal' solos by Miss
Eloise Anita Hall, colorature soprano,,
made a big hit. Her voice is of lus
cious, sparkling quality, and she trills
with the accuracy and sweetness of
tone of a human flute. She may be
well called "the young etrazzinl" of
this city. Her solo. "Lo. Hear the
Gentle Lark" (Bishop), with charm
ingly played flute obligato by Robert
A. Millard, made a musical sensation,
so beautifully was it rendered. Miss
Hall's extra number was "Dainty Little
Love" (Newcomb).
Mr. Millard's flute solos were played
with fine taste and -111. and the rarity
of flute solos in this city captured also
the fancy of the audience. Mr. Millard's
extra solo was "Swallows" (Cox).
Dr. McGulrc's "Voice Appeals.
Dr. Stuart McGuire's baritone solos
showed the beauty of his finely trained
voice, and the brilliancy of his "cov
ered" vocalism. His extra number was
"In an Old-Fash, ned Town" (Squlers).
Waldemar Lind, violinist, played ex
quisitely in interpreting "Ave Maria"
(Schubert-Wilhelmj), and as an encore
he played "Chanson" (Couperin-Kreis-ler).
His violin is a beautifully toned
Testore, of '. -ilan, Italy, and dates about
the year 1730.
Joseph P. Mulder, tenor, sang with a
high excellence, and gave much pleas
ure, his encore being "The Elf Man"
Wells). Miss Abby Whiteside, pianist,
.played with grace and facility of art
the "Rhapsody in F Minor" (Dohmanyl),
her encore being a "March Hungroise"
by the same composer.
The piano ucompanista were Mrs.
Warren E. Thomas, Elbrldge Trayle
and Miss Marguerite Mulder, their
piano work being much appreciated.

CRISIS OF

Wagoner, Okla. "1 never Ret tired

b e c a a s e during
Change of Life I
was in bed two
years and had two
operations, but all
the doctors and op

Such warning symptoms as sense of
suffocation, hotflashes, headaches, back
aches, dread of impending evil, timidity,
sounds in the ears, palpitation of the
heart, sparks before the eyes, irregu

weakness and dizziness should be heeded

WITH SAGE TEA
If Mixed With Sulphur It
Darkens So Naturally
Nobody Can Tell.
The old-time mixture of Sage Tea and
Sulphur for darkening gray, streaked
and faded hair is grandmother's recipe,
and folks are using It to keep their
hair a good, even color, which is quite
sensible, as we are living in an age
when a youthful appearance is of the
greatest advantage.
Nowadays, though, we don t have the
troublesome task of gathering the Bage
and the mussy mixing at home. All
drugstores sell the ready-to-use prod
uct, improved by the aadition of other
ingredients, called "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound" for about 60 cents
bottle. It Is very popular because no
body can discover it has been .applied.
Simply moisten your comb or a soft
brush with it and draw this through
your bair. taking one small strand at
a time; by morning the gray hair dis
appears, but what delights the ladies
with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound, is that, besides beautifully dark
ening the hair after a few applications,
it also produces that soft luster and
appearance of abundance which is so
attractive. This ready-to-use prepara
tion is a delightful toilet requisite for
those who desire a more youthful ap
pearance. It is not Intended for the
cure, mitigation or prevention of dis
ease. Adv.
