Important Deal In Northwestern Ad vertising Field Closed With New ly Incorporated Concern. Consolidation of the two largest ad vertising agencies in the Pacific North west was affected yesterday, the agen cies being the Botsford-Tyler Company, of Portland, and the Constantino Ad vertising Company, of Seattle. The combined firm, known as Botsford, Constantine & Tyler, will maintain of fices in both cities. The merger is the most important development for many months in the Northwestern advertising field. It brings together agencies that have handled some of the largest campaigns inaugurated in behalf of Pacific Coast products. The Botsford-Tyler Company itself is a merger of two Portland ad vertising companies that was effected last Winter. The enlarged organization has been perfected in order that the agency may have the facilities to conduct still greater campaigns. The new agency ss incorporated in Oregon and Washington with a capital stock of $50,000. Following are the of ficers: President and general man ager, P. S. Tyler; vice-president and manager of the Portland office, David M. Botsford; vice-president and man ager of the Seattle office, C. P. Con stantine.

The ellc in the City park are groin to attend the annual picnic of the Fort- land B. P. O. K. lodge at Estacada Sunday. It will doubtless be some job to Bet the animals to the picnic grounds, but members of Portland Lodge 143 an nounce that all details for the trip have been made. Lured by the skillful coaxing of Dee Wright, experienced woodsman of the Forest Service, and W. L. Finley. state biologist, who has a way. with him even with deer, it Is expected that the 17 elk will all show up at Estacada Sunday In time for a picnic lunch with the Elks of Lodge 142. It will be more than a mere picnic for the elk. It will be an extension of life for them. But for the efforts of the Portland B. P. O. E. they would have been slaughtered ere now in the interests of war time food conserva tion. When the cost of feed went up, and kept on rising, the park commis sioners decided that it would be un patriotic to continue feeding the city" elk herd, and they determined to dis pose of at least a portion of the herd. This probably would have been done but for the protests lodged with the authorities by the B. P. O. E.. who held that it would be a shame to kill the animals when there were such fine ranges open for them In this state. It was decided finally to take the elk to the Big Bottom country at the headwaters of the Clackamas. Dee Wright was sent to Portland from that district and he has been living with the animals in the park in order to ac custom them to the sight of humans, tents, and campfires. so that they will not be frightened when they run across such things on the trip to their new home. The Portland Railway, Light & Power Company has donated a car to take the elk to Estacada, From there they will be led Into the range country by Mr. "Wright, while Mr. Finley takes moving pictures of the trip. ' The committee which has charge of moving the elk Includes Robert Dun can. W. J. McPherson. Frank Hen nessy and W. IA Finley. Thomas Sher rard, supervisor of the Oregon Forest, and Herman Wallace, district super visor, will assist. SKETCH TOPS BILL "OVER THERE" TREATS WITH M OULD STRl GGI-E IX El ROPE. Private Jark Llnjrwood. Formerly f Princess Pat's Canadian Regiment. Is Star In Playlet. Another capital bill in on at Pin tages, one that will pack that theater to capacity all week. The headline act, which brought storms of applause at every sentence, is "Over There," picturing a bit of the western front in France and intro ducing Private Jack Liingwood. one of the few survivors of the famous and original Princess Pat's Canadian Regi ment, which went so gallantly over the top at the war's beginning. Private liingwood tells graphically of their enlistment and of the shat tering of the splendid company. Then he takes part in. a dramatic playlet, called "Over There." which sparkles with bright dialogue and ascends to splendidly dramatic heights as Its ac tion proceeds. It tells a story, a true, everyday happening, of the life over there. The act registered btg and makes a bid for genuine patriotic fervor. Crewell, Fan ton and Company, in "Reveille a brilliant military spec tacle, are ringleaders In the comedy entertainment, with all the other acts following close . on their clever heels. Crewell and Kan ton and Company are all acrobats who have original methods and out of the ordinary features In their physical prowess. The setting of their act Is unusual, too. The curtain goes up on a beautiful encampment spot, with twilight com ing on and reveille sounding. A pretty Red Cross nurse sings a patriotic mel ody and then the trio of khaki-clad soldier acrobats stage a little exhibl tion of their own on the rings and bars which Is truly pen national and provokes rounds of applause. The Six Musical Nosses have a musi cal treat, exceptionally meritorious for the variety of Instruments used and the exquisite melodies that come from the many instruments. Four attractive girls, garbed as Pierrettes, and two men. as Pierrots, are the Nokhpb, and they make sweet music on everything from horns to violins. A number which held closest atten tion and interest was that of Miller, Packard and Howard, who of fer " A Real Pal." It has a thread of plot sufficient to hang a capital lot of fun and a surprise finish, and clever char acter acting by the trio of comedians, two men and a good-looking girl with lovely hair. Harry "Wright and May belle Davis have an act that is wholly new and novel, called "Cornology,' which opens with Maybelle demonstrating em in window, while Harry chats outside, and winds up with a brilliant dash into song and smart dancing. Opening the bill is a beautiful classic dance act. sponsored by Verna Mersereau and her talented company of four. Another series in the dramatic film stories, "The Son of Democracy," is shown In "Tender Memories," telling of Abraham Lincoln a boyhood. Class to Train for Librarians.

FILM GOES TO LOGGERS SWAT THE KAISER" HAS SO- DAI ENGAGEMENT IMf CAMPS. Picture One That Will Interest Boys 'Working In Woods nnd Possibly Speed I'p Production. Oregon state liberty loan headquar ters, through Publicity Manager Free man, has assigned the official film. "Swat the Kaiser," by Douglas Fair banks, to a 60-day engagement among the Loyal Legion of Loggers and Lum bermen of the Northwest. The film. In charge of Lieutenant William Cutts. Spruce Production Division, U. S. Signal Corps, will be taken on a tour of the camps of the men who are getting out timber for the great "bridge of ships" and fighting planes. The "Swat the Kaiser" film is an ex tremely popular one, and proved a splendid working partner in the selling of war bonds to the public City audi ences everywhere in the state clamored for dates for showing the film, and. there being but one copy of it. the liberty loan management was in a quandary. It was finally decided that the logical thing to do was to give the film to the camps. It believed the Loyal Legion of Woodsmen are more entitled to con sideration in the matter of entertain ment than the people In the towns, as the former have less opportunity for amusement than the latter. And the "Swat" story has punch enough to it.

Many concerns, many individuals. faced with overwhelming difficulties, have turned those very obstacles to profitable advantage. One New York town, on a branch line, was threatened by extinction by freight congestion. It could not get supplies and deliver products. An enterprising man organized a truck fleet, carried supplies from a nearby railroad, delivered factory outputs via the Erie Canal, and turned disaster into prosperity. There is opportunity everywhere for the alert man who is far-seeing enough to recognize it and has the nerve to grasp it. This is no time for the timid or the sluggard.

PIERCE-ARROW Motor Trucks No other company is equipped with service facilities like the Fierce-Arrow to insure the suc cess of our trucks. FOR INSTANCE: Sinclair Refining Company bought 10O tracks, choosing the Pierre Arrow. Sinclair depends on its tracks to maintain its service to its customers. So Sinclair bad to have a track that would not fail them in any circumstances. Through subsidiary companies, they had had experience with cheap equipment. They found it depredated too fast, was too often and too long out of commission. They examined Pierce-Arrow records in actual service and chose on performance solely. Then they required service facilities in priori pal cities of New York, Massachusetts, Ohio, Indiana. Pennsylvania, Illinois, Minnesota, South Dakota. Iowa, Nebraska, Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma and Colorado. Fierce-Arrow afforded it. Pierce-Arrow bad had experience in the oil business and could supply complete equipment, including tank tracks, suitable for every purpose. So they bought Pierce-Arrows which are serving them satisfactorily In all of those states. Similar considerations influenced many nationally kne vn companies to equip with Fierce-Arrows.
