Little Portland Girl, Whose Father Died Overseas, to Present Bou quet at Auditorium. When General Pershing arrives' in Portland next Sunday he will meet again the man who was his orderly on the day he was advanced from a captain of the loth cavalry to General Wood's staff in the Philippines. This man - is C. E. Collins of 405 Tenth street, who served in troop D ot the same regiment in 1901 and 1902. So far as Mr. Collins knows, he is the only ex-soldier in the state who was with Pershing during the Moro cam paign. The Portland man has very painful memories of one of his personal en counters with the general, who has always been extremely strict about enforcing military orders. One morn ing, Mr. Collins says, the troop was marching from'the stables in column of fours when .a Spanish woman on the second floor of a building called Collins by name and shouted. "Good morning" in Spanish. Collins thought bis captain had left the troop, and, contrary to military etiquette, which forbids speaking while at attention, he answered the woman. Almost Immediately the entire troop was halted and Captain Per shing stepped out from where he had been marching just In the rear of Collins. He placed Collins under ar rest and sentenced him to four days' employment in the public park, where he was to pick up cigarette stubs. After looking up Collins' pre vious record he remitted the sentence to four hours, but in the meantime the young man had put in a painful morning while fellow soldiers stood around watching his antics in the park. General Pershing, accompanied by his staff and .others of the official party, is to arrive in Portland, at union station, at 12:S0 o'clock next Sunday, where he will be met by spe cial reception committees from the Chamber of Commerce and the Amer ican Legion. Leaving Portland at 11:30 Sunday night. General Pershing will proceed to Seattle and Camp Lewis. He will pass through -this city again on Jan uary 21 on his way to California. ijome little girl, three or four years old, whose father died "over there," is to have the privilege of presenting a bouquet of Portland roses to Gen eral Pershing, on behalf of the Amer ican Legion, at the auditorium assem bly. Candidates for the honor should be listed with James Convill. Liberty temple, Main 313, where the selection will be made.

CLARKE PIONEER IS ILL Henry Christ, 84, Said to Be in Unconscious Condition. VANCOUVER, Wash., Jan. 11. (Special.) Henry Christ, one of the oldest residents of Clarke county, was reported today to be critically 111 at his home, 712 East Twenty-eighth street, this city. He has -been in an unconscious condition for the last 24 hours, and because of his advanced age, 84' years, It is said there is little hope for his recovery.

ASSOCIATES HONOR MARGARET GARRISON Franklin School Acclaims Prohibition Orator. PRIZE WINNEFMS MODEST Victor in les Moines, la., Con test tiives Credit to Instructor. Men Competitors Beaten. "Here's a copy of The Oregonian with a tory in it about an Oregon girl who won first prize in a pro hibition oratorical contest," said a man on a Union Pacific train pass ing through Wyoming last Thursday, as he handed the "copy to Miss Mar garet Garrison. "It may interest you." Although he did not then and docs not now know it. Miss Garrison was "the girl." She was returning home from Des Moines, Iowa, where she had just won first prize and the $100 award In the biennial national ora torical contest of the Inter-Collegiate Prohibition association, ' being the first of her sex ever to win this. hon or. She eoke against six men from various sections of the country. Miss Garrison reached Portland Fri day and was met at the Union sta tion by a large delegation of teachers and students of the Franklin high school, where she teaches English and public speaking. She was showered with flowers and was otherwise re ceived, with joyous acclaim by her as sociates and the pupils and special recognition at Franklin is to be ac corded her Tuesday afternoon, when an assembly will be held and public honor given. Of her experiences at Des Moines, Miss Garrison is rather reticent. Of one thing she is sorry that, in the confusion and hurry of things, she did not learn the markings of the judges and therefore she does not yet know upon what basis the prize was awarded her. She hopes to as certain this soon, however. Letter Commrnda Winner. Miss Garrison's victory has brought forth a commendatory letter from Elton G". Borton, publicity secretary of the Inter-Collegiate Prohibition as sociation. "Speaking against six men, who, like herself, had battled through the local, state and interstate contests and won supremacy over some 1500 other collegiate orators. Miss Garrison walked" away with the first honors and the, prize of $100,"' wrote Mr. Borton. Miss Garrison was loath to speak of her hopes for the future when asked concerning her plans, but said that her ambition inclines rather to ward the dramatic than the oratorical and that she has some ideas of her own which she wishes to work out, if possible. According to Miss Garrison, she owes a large share of the credit for her honors to her instructor, Mrs. Helen Miller Senn, now on the staff of the University of Oregon and formerlyinstructor in oratory at Wil lamette university, where she dis covered her pupil. ' Credit Given Mrs. Stun, "Mrs. Senn Is a wonderful Instruc tor," volunteered Miss Garrison, "and I certainly wish her to have all pos sible credit for what , she did in my case. Without her assistance and di rection, it would have been impossible for me to have won.' The title of Miss Garrison's oration was "A New Reconstruction." She is the ' third of Mrs. Senn's pupils to have achieved honor in pro hibition association contests. The other two were men. She was chosen by Mrs. Senn at Willamette univer sity as the best available material for the purpose in 1917 and has since received continuous instruction. At that time she had no training in this line. Since Miss Garrison came to Portland to take a position in the public schools, she has been under Mrs. Senn's Instruction continually up to the time of leaving for Des Moines. Other contestants at Des Moines were H-. K. Cassidy of Ottawa uni versity, Kan.; Elmer H. . Norrington of Park coilege. Mo.; Barton R. Pogue of Taylor university, Ind.; Frank B. FageTburg of Illinois Wesleyan uni versity; Joseph Meyers Jr. of Transyl vania university, and W. Clark Early of Asbury college. Mr. Cassidy took second place and Mr. Pogue was ranked third.
