Canada, and former vlce-prfldenl of the International peace Society. Where recruits are wanted It would be hard to Imagine a speaker who could present the appeal more mightily than thla peace-loving parson, author of auch novels of practical idealism as -The Sky Pilot- and -Black Kock." Just how the amiable chaplain con trived to Implant those emotions, dy namic with Impulse to war sacrifice, la the soul depths of those who heard his talk yesterday noon at the Melllg The ater, few present could tell. Certainly. It was not with Impassioned appeal, with flag-waving oratory, nor yet with Incitement to hate yet he did atlr those Impulses and with a master hand. Vnun Brief bat Telllas.

Exactly typical of the man was the terse, unadorned reference to the loan campaign. Speaking In conversational tone be never spoke otherwise this Is what be said: I have been In this liberty loan campaign three weeka now. But I never Insult my audiences nor myself by talking of their dollars. We have gotten far beyond all thoughta of dollars where I bav been." Sacrifice Xeevaaary 'ew. That was his appeal for the loan. But he had prefaced It with thoughta pregnant with the spirit of sacrifice. showing how his commander had not only lost his life but a business worth IJ.OOO.tOO. leaving his wife snd child on the verge of want; how others had forfeited their business and life'a earn ings. He had said: "' nsd to have bands playing and people parading tba streets. .Not now. The thing baa gone too far. has gotten too serious for that. We have come to see worse tbings than losing our men. The sacrifice of war are not to be met by what w draw out of the bank, but what w draw from the heart." "In America." he continued. Bt ILDER DIES AT PORTLAND HOME. !

OPERA'S APPEAL IS STR 0 N G J " wWclUs help'nthe greatmwork o" J Coming Production at Auditorium to Help War Work. The production of the opera "Merry Wives of Windsor" next Thursday and Friday night at the Auditorium has two distinct war purposes. First, It is a civic and educational phase of the development of the city of Portland, and that such development plays an important part in the patriotic move ments of the city is attested by the demands upon local musicians in recent carrying on the war. Second, the net proceeds of the two productions will be donated to the Portland chapter of the American Red Cross. The distinctive feature of the opera is its broad appeal, for while It Is put on by Portland musicians, it is strictly a professional performance, the cast of principals including only finished, artistic vocalists of experience, many of them having to their credit success In opera here and elsewhere. Then, too, the chorus is made up wholly of professional singers, many of them soloists, hence the production will ap peal to the music lover "who knows." The performance, being one of un usually high standards, will appeal to teachers and students of music. Silverton Plans Flag-Raising. SILVERTON. Or., April 22. (Spe- ' cial.)
