Portland Delegation, at Reception
Aboard United States
Warship.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 10. fSpeciaL
Portland played a prominent part in
proceedings of the world ad men's con
vention today.
Charles F. Berg, president of the Pa
cific Coast Advertising Men's Associa
tion, stirred the big gathering up to an
Intensely high patriotic pitch with his
dramatic story of "How Oregon Spruce
Baved the Aircraft Situation." Mr.
Berg's presentation of the subject was
one of the most virile documents writ
ten into the permanent records of this
great war convention. When he fin
ished the vast audience jumped to their
feet and shouted, "What's the matter
.with Oregon?"
"V. J. Hoffmann Named Director.
Additional honors came to Portland
when W. J. Hofmann was chosen Na
tional director of the "daily newspaper"
division of the association.
Repeatedly during the convention
National officers have warmly com
mended Portland for giving up the
Pacific Coast convention this year in
order to assure greater success for the
world gathering here in San Francisco.
Portland's unselfish action has mtde
her delegation one of the most pop
ular ones in attendance.
President Frank McCrillis. of the
Portland Club and chairman of the
delegation, has received the personal
thanks of Mayor Rolph on behalf of
an Francisco and President D'Arcy,
of the A. A. C. of W., and unquestion
ably Portland will draw the biggest
crowd in the history of the Pacific Coast
Association when the convention meets
there next year.
Two to Be Re-elected.
C. F. Berg and W. P. Strandborg will
be re-elected president and secretary
treasurer of the coast association at its
business session tomorrow.
Tomorrow afternoon the Portlanders
will be guests of honor at a reception
given by Rear-Admiral l-'uliam, com
manding the Pacific fleet, on board a
warship.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 10. Imme
diate action to meet the post-war prob
lems of reconstructing business and
human life was urged upon delegates
to the convention of the Associated Ad
vertising Clubs of the World today.
Fred Watson, of Brisbane, Australia,
chairman of the publicity department
of the Australian war council's repa
triation executive committee, told how
Australia is helping 100,000 war vic
tims to help themselves. He suggested
that the advertising men etart a move
ment looking toward the combining of
the Red Cross and other relief organi
zations to assist men disabled in the
war.
, Trade Boycott Hinted.
Holding commerce to be "at once the
product and promoter of civilization."
Si-muel C. Dobbs. of Atlanta. Ga., for
merly president of the Associated Clubs,
declared trade, which, he said, was
based essentially upon good faith, could
never be conducted with Germany as
long as she proclaimed "solemn treaties
are "mere scraps of paper."
Today's general session followed the
action of the club presidents in voting
for New Orleans as the 1919 convention
city for the association. This vote,
which gave the Southern city 39 bal
lets, St. PauL 13 and New York nine,
comes up for ratification at the final
general session tomorrow, when offi
cers will be elected.
Teuton Theory Must Go.
"All commerce is conducted on the
basis of 'scraps of paper,' " said Mr.
lobbs in emphasizing the necessity of
abolishing forever German's theory so
that the world may be made safe for
business as well as democracy.
Charles M. Schwab, director-general
of the Emergency Fleet Corporation,
again will address delegates to the
convention here tomorrow. He will
itoi here for a few hours on his way
from Los Angeles to inspect shipyards
of the Northwest, it was announced

'If you don't send us men our crops
will be a total loss."
This is the S. O. S. call sent to the
Portland Farm Help Bureau by farm
ers of Condon, Oregon. The clerks,
the business men, the fellows who get
vacations in Portland, will have to re-
pond to the call for help or Oregon
will suffer, and the Army and the allies
will be deprived of food and fodder
they ought to have.
Every man in Portland who knows
how to drive a team, to pick an ap
ple, to hoist a hay rake, to roll up his
sleeves and work, must give up his
vacation to save our crops. This call
isn't a pretty scheme to start an un
necessary patriotic drive. It is a cry
for help that must be answered.
'Lots of men come strolling Into
Liberty Temple and want to know if
we really need men for this work,"
said C. S. Samuel, who is secretary of
the farm help movement. "Tell them
that this is a war necessity. "We have
got to meet it with men from the
city or It won't be met"
Voluntary Enlistments Many.
Enrollment increased today by a
large number of voluntary enlistments
with Miss Rosemary Baldwin, regis
tration officer. Teachers, students, re
tired farmers, business men offered
their services to the farm help com
mittee yesterday.
'I think Id be best at fruit picking.
said Judge Joseph H. Jones, "but I'll
do any kind of work that's needed.
Whatever job you give me must be
near Portland, for I'm keeping a war
garden of six city lots and I'll have to
run into the city on Sundays to look
after my own farm."
One man said he would drive a trac
tor, but that he didn't like horses. An
other said he was a retired mule skin
ner and nothing would please him bet
ter than to crack the whip over a lot
of ornery critters. A feecond officer
of a steamboat volunteered to take a
tcuch of the simple rural life during
his vacation.
Another man offered the services of
hie wife as well as his own. "She can
cook," said he. "and I can do any job
on a farm." Retired farmers anxious
to get back in the harness offered their
Summer to the work. Most of them
wanted to go at once, and they got the
chance.
All -Willing to Roegk It.
Toung fellows and old ones showed
their disregard of the hardships of
roughing it by answering Sure' and
" l ou bet to the query. Are you will
ing to rough it with the rest of the
help?"
Several women and some men offered
to take the place of a man in the city
in order to relieve him for duties in the
harvest field.
All who want to go to work imme
diately can be used and those who must
wait several weeks will be called when
they wish. Everyone who is w.'lling to
sacrifice a week at the mountain or
the seashore will have the opportunity
of doing it. While the volunteers are
coming into the Liberty Temple to reg
ister, captains of the various city dis
tricte are j.o'ng into the highways and
byways of the town to ferret out the
prospective vacationists and get them
to change their plans of bathing suits
for others of overall toil.

GRIEF IS CAUSE OF SUICIDE
Klrtland Good Jumps Into Willam
ette Slough and Drowns.
Grief over the death of his wife, for
whom he had mourned two years,
caused Kirtland Good, aged 42, 10 East
Twenty-fourth street, to give up his
life last evening. An old letter on
which was written the words: "I die
for you, Grace," left on the bridge over
the Willamette Slouch, from which he
jumped, told the story.
Yesterday afternoon at 5 o'clock he
left the house to visit his wife's grave
in the Rose City Cemetery. At 8 o'clock
Mr. Good was seen to jtfmp from the
bridge over the Willamette Slough near
the point where East Fifty-seventh
street would be if it were cut through.
The unfortunate affair was witnessed
by Logie Richardson, a former employe
of the County Clerk's office. He said
that the man swam deliberately to the
middle of the stream, threw up his
hands and sank.
The dead man is survived by a
mother, a sister and a younger brother,
who is in the Army. I'p to a late hour
last night the body had not been re
covered.

CAMP LEWIS, Tacoma. Wash.. July
10. Official announcement from Wash
ington, D. C, this morning that a new
division of mobile ' troops would be
formed here and the general circula

tion will be designated to be a part of
It. A division of mobile troops is com
posed of approximately 27,000 men and
officers.

GRANDMOTHER WAS THE
DRUGGIST
In the early days of our country
grandmother was the druggist, and her
drugs consisted mostly of roots and
herbs gathered from the fields and for
ests. There was peppermint for indi
gestion, mullen for coughs, skullcap
for nervousness, thoroughwort for
colds, wormwood for bruises and
sprains, and so on. They were success
ful remedies, too. It was from a com
bination of such roots and herbs that
Mrs. Lydia E. Pinkham. of Lynn, Mass.,
more than forty years ago, originated
her now famous Vegetable Compound;
and during all these long years no
other remedy has ever been discovered
to restore health to ailing women so
successfully as this good old-fashioned
