Ore ROM Leads Generally.
Surprising evidence of the rate at
which Oregon has outstripped Central
and Eastern states in patriotic achieve,
ment is afforded by the observations
of J. R. Ellison, of Portland, who re
cently returned from a tour of those
sections.
"I was much surprised." said Air.
Ellison, "to find that Oregon not only
led all states by going 'over the top"
first in the third liberty loan drive.
but that we are far ahead of them in
various other drives as well.
"For example, in Cleveland, the sec
ond week in August, I heard Mr. Van
derlip, who is credited with having
originated the war savings stamp idea,
address an audience on war savings
tamps. They were just getting ready
for their drive there, whereas Oregon
completed this early in July.
Cbicaira la Far Behind.
"Returning the following week to
Chicago. I found that there they were
a month and a half behind Oregon in
their active campaign on war savings
stamps. In several places Armenian
relief. Salvation Army and various
other drives were going on. Some of
these were at least eix months behind
the Oregon schedule. In at least one
city workers were going back over the
territory already covered, requesting
subscribers to enlarge their subscrip
tions in order to 'go over the top
"Several places where I let It be
known that we had already finished
these drives I was asked to explain
Oregon's system, and how it was done.
We ought to feel proud of the splendid
work Oregon has done in its war activities."

This club expects to confine its war

In addition to their other war activi
ties, the S. O. S. girls of the Couch

The employment committee of the T.

ing after the Summer vacation. Mrs. C.
D. Bruun is the chairman and Mrs. A.
It. Bean secretary. The other members

Willis Duniway, Mrs. Franklin T. Grif
fith. Mrs. R. F. Prael, Mrs. C. A. Bell
ar..l Mrs. F. A. Kiehle. Mrs. Callahan,
the acting secretary, read a report cov
ering the work of the past three
months. The Sum Tier's vacation has
shown that the war is causing a great
many women to think seriously of tak
ing up work permanently, or at least
for the duration of the war; that a
great many soldiers' wives and depend
ents who have not been employed pre
viously or for a number of years are
calling at our office for advice as to
l!n.-s of work opening up for women.
During the past three months the sec
retary in charge of the office has in
terviewed more than 3000 women and
girls. Many of these women are ask
ing for clerical work. Quite a number
are fitting themselves for stenographic
and typut positions. There ia a demand
"I wrote to my partner, down in Lou

out here to see real timber, our houtn
ern properties run as high as 17,000 feet
to the acre, but 1 expect much of the
timber of the Pacific Northwest will
run to 100.000 feet, or better. I never
saw anything like it."
That is the way F. A. Goodrich
president of the Consolidated Sawmills
Company, of St. Louis, and owner of
extensive timber interests in Louisi
ana, sizes up -the tall trees of Montana,
Washington and Oregon. Mr. and Mrs.
Goodrich arrived yesterday morning, on
the last stretch of a continental motor
tour that started from Syracuse, N. Y.
They are stopping at the Multnomah
and will resume their journey today to
Santa Barbara, Cal., where they will
spend the Winter.
Mr. Goodrich is an enthusiast when
he speaks of the Yellowstone trail,
which he declares to be the best marked
highway in America. They chose it as
their course and at no time during that
portion of the trip were compelled to
use the bluebook, so definite and preva

to Portland registered 5271 miles, with

SHIPBUILDERS WHO "PLATED

Six Thousand Boilermakers In Local
Tarda Want 44 Instead of
4S-Hour Week.
The shipyard employes who "played
hookey" last Saturday afternoon, in
sisting on a half-holiday, will go back
to work today, and the incident will be
closed until next Saturday, when, it is
expected, they will take another half-
day off unless the Government inter
venes. Richard W. Montague, Federal
examiner, said yesterday that he had
just arrived and could make no state
ment regarding developments.
J. R. Bowles, president of the North
west Steel Company, said work would
be resumed in the yards today. Action
in the matter, Mr. Bowles said, was up
to the Federal examiner.
The trouble began Saturday after
noon, when 6000 members of the Boiler
makers' Union refused to work, follow
ing the vote of their organization Frl
day night. The men desired a continua
tion of the 44-hour week which the
Macey agreement gave them during
June, July and August. The Macey
agreement provided for a 48-hour week
beginning September 1.
BY LEONE CASS BAER,
The man who left his mother-in-law
out in the hall and told his wife the
radiator," has a brother at the Or
pheum this week. The brother's name
is Joe Morris, with an East Side (New
York, not Portland) accent, and one
of those suits that fitted when he
bought it for $1.98, a pale-grey, bride
groomish color and then shrunk with
washing until it fits like paper on the
walr. Joe left his girl out in an aero
plane field and the "avi-ate-her."
The girl is Flossy by name and
tendencies. Campbell is Flossy's last
name and she looks like the dollies
that adorn the labels of the soups she's
named for. She and Joe meet on the
aviation field, and we unlearn a lot we
thought we knew about airships. Then
Joe appears in song, a ditty about com
ing back to Caroline after he has
notched his initials on a few Germans.
Joe is a riot, squeaky as to voice,
with sensitive legs and capering like
a goat. He capers into a box and up
sets a perfectly nice party, while he
knits industriously and carries on an
education campaign across the foot
lights with Flossie. Joe would decorate
any bill, and he is a luminary of laugh
ter, in the opening Orpheum bill, for a
certainty.
Then there s Lou Holtz, billed as
Father Joy's boy. Why stop with
Father? He's the son of Mother Joy,
too, and I'll bet. at that, he keeps Pa
and Ma Joy up nights a "laffin" at him.
Lou does himself in acute ebon, with
guitar trimmings. The guitar has
flat wheel, but Lou twang - twangs
merrily on its sad strings and warbles
cheery verses with cheerier meanings.
Lou dances a bit and tells Intimate dis
closures of his rapid life. He also
recites. One of his "pomes" is a con
glomeration of all the hackneyed odds
and ends of Gungda Dhlns and Vampire
lines from Adam down and Lou pro
vokes a riot when he springs it. Lou
sings, too, and his voice is a likable
one.
Another singer who has croony
qualities in his voice is Henry Berg
man, who looks like Willie Howard,
the little one. With a blonde dolly
named Gladys Clark he appears in a
Garden of Evlsh scene, roosting high
In a tree. He is really a poet, we
learn, seeking atmosphere for his art,
and lives in a tree to get it.
Little Miss Clark appears as Red
Riding Hood and thinks the poet is
well, not a poet. They chat and sing
and dance about the matter most de
lightfully, until she is convinced he is
a poet "and we are convinced beyond
any doubt that the two can dance
beautifully, and can sing sweetly and
with harmony and that their chatter
is clever.
Another Miss Campbell is on tha
bill. This one hasn't any front name.
She's just Miss Campbell and she ap
pears with Miss Shaw.
They ukelele a bit, and piano both
of 'em, and then they put their pretty
heads together, one goldy and one
dusky, and warble the sweetest close
harmony melodies. Yesterday at the
matinee they Btopped the show. We
just couldn't hear too much of their
sweetie songs. They nave pep ana
youth and looks, and clothes and jobs,
plus voices. What more can any girl
ask?
Wilfred Clarke, comedian, appears In
a farce called "His Reel Life," which is
a realistic episode in what might hap
pen to any nice wife or husband who
goes away and gets screened in a drama
without mentioning It at home. Mr.
Clarke has an excellent role for him
self, and his company is good. Grace
Menken, featuring a mole just above
her ninth vertebrae, is the attractive
leading woman. The Eddy Duo, Phil
lip and Karoline, dance and devil on a
slack wire. They are unusually adept
in this art and their sense of time is
perfect. Alia Moskova and Moris Petroff
and a group of classic dancers close
the bill in a series of esthetic poses and
flights before a red velvet drop.
One of the Interesting features on
the bill is the exhibition of pictures
taken of the immortal allied Fourth of
July, 1918, in Paris, all revenues from
which go to the Red Cross.
Society was held yesterday afternoon
at Cathedral Hall, when 563 delegates,
representing the parishes of Portland,
were present, with a delegation of
five from Albany. Second Vice-President
P. Sullivan presided.
The speakers were Rev. Fr. Devine,
of the order of Redemptors: Thomas
G. Ryan, who spoke on "Catholic Cit
izenship," and Rev. Fr. ' Olsen, of the
Dominican order.
At the close of the convention the
delegates marched in procession to St.
Mary's pro-Cathedral, preceded by a
platoon of 12 soldiers. The ceremony
of solemn benediction was pronounced,
followed by a sermon by Rev. Fr.
Waitt, of St. Stephen's parish. In a
splendid address Archbishop Christie
dwelt 'upon the necessity of bending
every effort to patriotic purpose not
merely in doing one's "bit," but in do
ing all that lies within one's power.
The next convention will be held in
Immaculate Heart Parish, Williams
avenue, on the second Sunday in De
cember.

PROFESSOR JOHNSTON" SEEKS RE
VIVAL OF MIZZEVS HISTORY.
Teacher at Washington High Approves
Volume for Home Reference, but
Principal Herdman Objects.
Muzzey's history, barred from the
Portland public schools by action of the
School Board last Spring, is making a
bid- for the limelight again.
Professor John F. Johnston, professor
of history at Washington High School
had suggested tne textbook as one
which, his pupils might buy, second
hand, as a reference book for home
use, but when H. H. Herdman, principal
of the school, learned of this yester
day, he advised Professor Johnston to
discontinue use of the text book even
for reference.
Mtrzzey's history was banished from
the public schools last Spring after a
long and spirited controversy. The
book was denounced on the one hand
as inaccurate and un-American. On
the other hand it was upheld as a book
of broad vision. Just the proper thing
for a student of high school age.
Professor Johnston said yesterday
that he contemplated the use of the
Muzzey text for the classes which
began studying that book last semes-
er and had completed the first part
of the book. He maintained that since
the school had adopted the library sys
tem of teaching and followed no text
very closely, the choice of the textbook
was a matter of little importance.
ProfessGr Johnston also said that.
with the idea of helping the students
economize, he had suggested that they
might get the Muzzey text from other
students who had finished it. He was
advising them, at this time, he said, to
secure some good . history for home
reference.
