REFERENDUM EFFORTS END
Signatures Lacking on 6-Mill Tax
Bill and Tenure of Office Law
at Time of Disappearance, but
Others Might Have Won.
A "Sunday search failed to bring to
light the petitions bearing 7000 to S00O
signatures, a number which woald
have been sufficient to refer to the
voters at the next regular Fall State
election, the act of the last Legislature
in shortening the term of school direc
tors in districts of the first class, from
five to three years.
The petitions were taken from the
office of Attorney Veatch In the Fen
ton building Saturday night Just be
fore the final computations were to
have been made. The missing signa
tures were sufficient to bring the to
tal to 14,083, and to get the measure
on the ballot. Scores of teachers and
others Interested had worked Friday
and Saturday diligently, only to have
their efforts upset by the opposition,
apparently.
A. F. Flegel, who had fathered the
petitions, was forced to give up hope
last night, as, at the latest, the peti
tions had to be in the hands of Sec
retary of State Olcott, today.
Two Petitions FalL
The petitions for a referendum on the
other two school measures, namely the
6-mill tax limitation bill and the Or
ton Teachers' tenure of office bill,
failed, the former by a few hundred
signatures and the latter by a con
siderable number. (
Secretary of State Olcott remained
in his office at the Statehouse until
midnight awaiting to receive the peti
tions. While yesterday was the 90th
actual day following adjournment of
the Legislature the time limit set by
law for the new measures to go Into
effect Secretary Olcott ruled that all
referendum petitions would have to be
In his office by Saturday night, because
yesterday was a legal holiday. After
learning that some of the signatures
had disappeared Mr. Olcott agreed to
receive the petitions yesterday and
await a decision from the Attorney
General to determine whether or not
the affected bills should be referred
and placed on the ballot at the election
of November, 1918.
But members' of the School Board
and Superintendent Alderman gave up
hopes early yesterday morning of re
covering the missing documents and
will suffer the measures to become
laws without further protest.
Classification ls Provided.
The Orton measure takes the conduct
of proceedings following dismissal of
a teacher out of the hands of the
board and places It into the hands of
a special committee to be named by the
Circuit Court. It also classifies all the
teachers in the service into eight dif
ferent grades of graduated importance.
It is impossible for the board to trans
fer a teacher from any one grade to
one of lesser- Importance. The bill
also retains the two-year probation pe
riod and all other provisions of the
present civil-service law governing the
schools.
The 6-mill tax bill limits the tax
levy for the Portland School District
to 6 mills a y ear.
School board members fear this will
curtail numerous important activities
In the schools and may prevent all fu
ture building work.
The tax levy, under the present law.
for this year was 6.8 mills on an as.
sessed valuation of $280,000,000, pro
viding $1,904,000 for school work. On
the same valuation the 6-mill levy
would net only $1,680,000.
Franklin Unit Provided.
The present year's levy provides for
a new unit at the Franklin High
School, construction of the new Haw
thorne School at Fast Oak and Six- j
teenth streets, and several minor build
ing projects in varoius parts of the
city. The Benson Polytechnic on
East Twelfth street also will be com
pleted, but it will be Impossible now
to build additional units to the Benson
School as originally contemplated or
to undertake the Benson Girls' Trade
School on Fast Twenty-fourth and
Couch streets at all.
The three-year-term bill will limit
the terms of school directors to three
years. They now are five years. But
the board, under the new law. will con
tinue to consist of five members. The
terms of two.. therefore, will expire this
year, two next year and one the fol
lowing year.
Another school measure that be
comes a law today is one granting all
citizens the right to vote at school
elections. Heretofore only taxpayers
could vote. Another measure extends
the recall to school directors, but no
attempt was made to refer these last
two bills.
ART LECTURE INTERESTS
WORK OF" FREDERIC SHIELDS IS
TOLD BY MRS. HOJTETMAJT.
Paintings In Chapel at London Are
Described and Large Number of
Visitors Sees Exhibit.
A description of the artistic achieve
ment of Frederic Shields, the story of
the Chapel of the Ascension and Its
decoration, formed the theme for a lec
ture by Mrs. Jessie Honeyman. who
spoke yesterday In the Portland Art
Museum.
Mrs. Honeyman gave In Interesting
account of the religious paintings that
adorn the chapel in the Bayswater
lioad, London, on the site of the old
mortuary chapel in St. George's Han
over square. This chapel, built by Mrs.
Russell Guernsey, with Herbert Horne
as the architect, contains a series of
beautiful paiHtings, making up a com
plete religious story, and all are the
work of Frederic Shields.
Pictures of some of the famous sub
jects, as interpreted by famous old
world artists, were shown in contrast
to the modern painting of Shields. The
erection of the chapel was sanctioned
In 1890 by the Bishop of London's chan
cellor, and the paintings form one of
the attractions for London sightseers.
Other religious and artistic lectures
will be given at the Art Museum later.
Sunday ls a free day at museum, and
a number of visitors availed themselves
of the opportunity to see the exhibition
of student work now on display In the
upper gallery. This exhibit will con
tinue until Saturday night, when the
annual play will be given by the art
students. This will ba' an affair of
social interest. ,

Each of the Oregon cavalry organ

Captain Hogan, because th War
Department has limited the recruiting
field of the Portland cavalry troops
to Multnomah County, urges each
trooper to form himself into a scout
and recruiting soldier. The enlistment
in any one of the three Portland cav

to bring into each troop some one

the expenses of the production as small
as possible, so that a neat sum can be
raised for the benefit of the Red Cross.
The students and coaches are donating

Lots to write about the Oraheum this
week, with Ray Cox. the funniest
comedienne in the world, as one head
liner, and lovely Dorothy Shoemaker,
America's next star among the younger
actresses, as another headllner. and
two Pacific Coasters, beloveds of mu
sical comedy, Walter De Leon and Mary
Davies, as an added feature. All these
and more besides.
Frlnstance, the rest of the bill is
a "gooder" (gooder being a word coined
by a 6-year-old friend o' mine, and
meaning just what it says).
Whole Bill Is "Gooder."
The whole bill, then, is a "gooder."
and calls to mind the famous line of
a famous producer, George M. Cohen:
"Always leave 'era laughing when you
say good-bye."
This, you know, ls good-bye week at
the Orpheum. It's good-bye until next
Fall, when the new season opens.
So you'll agree that there's plenty
to write about the Orpheum this week.
Comedy Dellclonsly Keen.
Ray Cox ls using the same act which
so edified our British brethren that
they wanted to make her a permanent
citizen of London and a decoration In
their music halls forever. The act is
a first lesson in horseback riding, and
simply cannot be embalmed in any
printed discussion. An undersized lad.
programmed Billy Carrell. brings an
undersized horse, programmed Jim, on
the stage, where a riding master, pro
grammed Harold Smith (and clever,
too) teaches Miss Cox the first rudi
ments In the gentle art of getting on
a horse and riding him. Long before
Miss Cox had struggled onto the saddle
and started on a mad career around
the stage, the audience had gone out
of commission, mentally and physically.
Miss Cox doesn't clown to be funny,
as other comediennes do. She ls a
beauty and wears smart riding togs,
and her comedy is delicate and de
liclously keen. Just prior to the rid
ing lesson she offers a dandy little turn
of song, a solo or so, all new, sparkly
stuff.
Miss Shoemaker Is Radiant.
Miss Shoemaker's vehicle is a dra
matic sketch sponsored by Martin Beck,
the autocrat of vaudeville. It is a
new version of the triangle of the wife,
the husband and the other man. Miss
Shoemaker, slender and radiantly beau
tiful, has a role that permits her to
employ her emotional ability with the
nice judgment and artistic conscious
ness for which this young artist is
noted. She has a liquid voice, physical
beauty and a subtile suggestion of
force in her Intonations and gestures,
all of which combined give her por
trayal a glamor that ls splendidly
dramatic.
Louis Leon Hall has an admirable
role as the husband who almost loses
his wife to another.' Mr. Hall plays in
vigorous style, with a certain grim hu
mor at flashes that catches like fire.
Edwin Brandt is the other man. a sort
of cad type, which he plays admirably.
The playlet ls handsomely staged, a
harmony in color. Miss Shoemaker's
gown, too, and her wrap, deserve a
song of praise, so gorgeous are they,
and such a fitting frame for so lovely
a girl.
Walter Does Imitations.
Walter De Leon ls a sojer all done
up in khaki. He comes to the atmos
pheric door of a cottage "somewhere
in France" to seek his good mother,
and finds his lady fair. Then Walter
does his famous lmi-tay-shuns with the
fascinating Mary (who used to be Mug
gins) Davies coming in on the choruses
to dance and show an array of mar
velous dresses. They've a smart, perky
act, up to the minuate in point of ma
terial and delightfully entertaining.
Two clever chaps are Ted Boyle and
Harry Broun, one at the piano, t'other
singing, cheery, breezy things. They
broke up the show yesterday and prob
ably will again, for they just naturally
are the Joy dispensers.
"Kiddie" Number Fetching.
Dancers de luxe with a sideline of
rare comedy are Frank and Tobie. One
of their best numbers is a pony dance,
with Tobie as the sassy in pony and
Frank as the groom: Miss Tobie does
Frances White's "Mlss-iss-ippl" song
number with delightful gayety.
Dorothy Brenner is a joyous person
age, with new Bongs and one particu
larly fetching "kiddle" number about
a ch-e-l-ld who was running away
from home. Sensation fllngers are the
Helen Leach Wallin trio, two iron-jaw
wizards, who hold a wire suspended
by their teeth while a third acrobats
daringly on It. Yes, It's some show.
IN LIFE NOTED
LONG-FACED RELIGION ATTACKED
BY DR. WALLER.
Smile and SonsT, Pastor Says, Go Fa
ther Toward Blesslnc the World
Than Melancholy.
"I find but little room In the Word
of God for melancholy and long-faced
religion." said Dr. Calvin B. Waller
yesterday morning in his sermon in the
White Temple, on "The Music of Life."
Dr. Waller used many illustrations
to show that the "life that blesses the
world ls the one tilled with sweetness,
sympathy and love, not the grouchy,
cold, bloodless life."
"Some so-called Christians seem to
think," said he. "that a long face ls
a sign of piety, and they try to- make
their faces very long to sow more
piety. It is a fallacy. A smile and a
song will go farther toward blessing
the world and magnifying the religion
of Jesus Christ than all the pious-looking
faces on earth.
"Our hearts are instruments, and it
takes the Master touch to bring out
the best music, the sweetest melody.
Sometimes we think we are poor In
struments, but God can make music
out of the humblest life.
"We are partners with the Master
Musician in bringing out music from
the soul's harp strings. Let the breath
of divine life blow on the harp strings,
let the Master touch break all discords
and be a happy, sunny Christian. Don't
be a mournful and long-faced indi
vidual," concluded Dr. Waller.

Portland Investors Slow to Hand In
Subscriptions and Only Approxi
mately One-third of City's
Quota Is Readied.
It Isn't necessary to pay cash for
Liberty Bonds.
As a matter of fact, the Govern
ment ls selling them on a modified in
stallment plan.
It ls necessary to pay only 2 per cent
of the face value of the bond on ap
plication, with three months to com
plete payment.
Thus. If you subscribe for a 150 bond,
you need pay only 1 down or $2 for
a J100 bond.
Future payments are to be made as
follows, taking a 50 bond as the basis:
$9 on June Z8: $10 on July 30; $15 on
August 15, and $15 on August 30.
The bonds are dated June 15 and pay
ZM per cent interest, but proportionate
interest payments will be withheld on
the deferred payments.
Portland bankers are not greatly en
couraged over the response of the pub
lic toward the Liberty issue, but they
believe that when the people learn
that they will not need to part with'
the entire amount of their subscription
all at once, they will be more ready
to subscribe.
Banka Mar Aid Snbarlnera.
The Government has made no provi
sion to extend the payments beyond
August 30, but it is probable that some
of the banks will arrange to carry
their patrons beyond this date, ad
vancing the unpaid subscriptions for
them and holding the bonds themselves
as security. It ls probable, in this
case, that the banks would not charge
more than SH per cent on the de
ferred payments the precise rate of
Interest carried by the bonds. While
the banks would be In no position to
profit from this kind of business they
would be performing a patriotic serv
ice and one highly valuable to the
Government as well as of great con
venience to the public.
The Union Pacific Railroad system
has arranged to advance the money
for Its employes who want to buy
bonds. Many Union Pacific employes
in Portland already have subscribed.
It ls understood that other corpora
tions are' arranging to offer similar
credit to their employes.
