WHEN Joseph - Howard was here
season before last he modestly
told us of a song he had Just com
pleted, and "tried it out" on us. he
said, hoping we'd like it. We did
like it before and since then a hun
dred million others have liked it.
"Somewhere in France 13 the Lily"
was the song. Last season he "tried
out" another new song. And yester
day he sang still another new com
position for us, "tried it out," he said
again, and again we Bet the seal of
our approval on its melody and clever
words. It is called "Mary Ann" and
has a swinging, croony chorus with
wedding-bell notes chiming through
the harmony. He sang, too, another
of his new songs, "Whistle a Song."
which is a whistleable air and, while
it has been heard here In the last
few weeks, Mr. Howard's interpreta
tion gave it new melody, a new mean
ing. He has a new act with the lithe,
alert and graceful p;thelyn Clark as
the other half of the plot. She has
improved in her dancing and has ac
quired new vocal notes of surprising
quality and range.
Against a background of an artist's
studio, wherein colors and canvases
and draperies and pictures and statues
and girl models and a piano herd to
gether picturesquely. Mr. Howard
sings and Miss Clark dances and
comes in on the high notes.
Max Ford, who is one of the famous
family of dancers, steps off a million
miles of original acceleration and
generously gave anothe.- complicated
set of footwork for encore. - -Jack
King looks after the tune's on
the piano and has a specialty in fal
setto song characterization. One of
the novelties among the several is the
living pictures of old-fashioned maids
called forth in one of Miss Clark's
songs. In the plumed hats and trail
ing skirts that made the men -of 20
years ago turn to stare at the girls
of 20 years ago, a sextet of Floradora
models pass in even statelier review
but with considerably less on, - say
perhaps the hats and the trains and
a sundry belt and buckle as they por
tray the modern maids on Broadway,
You might say the girls show
stamina and backbone, the latter cer
tainly. A quaint concert is an animated
harangue- in Chinese "au naturel"
between an oriental person named
Sun Ki Cee, who Just acts, and Air.
Howard, who blossoms out conversa
tionally and pictorially as a Chinese
mandarin.
In the last count, Mr. Howard steps
out of his wig and character and
sings the songs that may truly be
called "favorites." He could be there
singing yet. Certainly he has songs
enough to last for 100 recalls. He
gave us "Wonder Who's Kissing Her
Now" and "Mandy" and "Linda" and
"What's the Use of Dreaming" and
"Somewhere in France" and a dozen
others' singing them with spirit and
gay little steppings around. For the
refTain of each song Miss Clark, who
has the most versatile wardro"be on
this planet, emerged in some startling
gown to sing a note or so and assist
at tUe party. It's a nice, entertain
ing, quickly moving act and just the
sort the Shrine brothers and their
tired wives will relish.
Chester Spencer is a happy person
age, with a little-boy smile of engag
ing wickedness and an affinity for
mischief. He puts across a mess of
nonsense with Lola Williams, a Mrs.
Newlywed, curly type of girl with
quirks in her voice, and smile. Their
comedy exchange is original. Chester
takes the audience into his confi
dence with perfect childlike faith and
has us all believing him.
A capital and original act is that
of Mr. and Mrs. Eary, an athletic pair
who whirl and leap through rings of
small diameter. The act is one of
the sore that defies printed descrip
tion and left the spectators gaping
with amazement. The Earlys work
quietly and quickly with no hint of
theatricalism or "give me your kind
applause," and they reap a whirlwind
of it at every new sensational turn.
George Roland, as a steamf itter,'
with Billy Kelly as his half-portion
helper, come into a cold basement to
repair a furnace and their discussion
on everything from furnaces to
finance causes fun a-plenty.

QETTING THE -PACE," is the title
O of this week's offering at the
Lyric theater and the characters of
Mike Dooley and -Ike Leschlnsky por
trayed by Ben T. Dillon and Al
Franks are given In their usual
humorous fashion.
The etory deals with th escapades
of the pair. Mrs. Dooley and Leschln
sky are continually trving to catch
their spouses flirting, but fortune al
ways intervenes. The story opens
with the homecoming of Fred, a col
lege boy, who immediately resumes
his flirtation of the last summer with
Jane, the maid.
Jane, portrayed by Billie Bingham,
flirts charmingly, but Jokes when he
asks her to marry him, because of
her love for Tommy, a bellhop with
an engaging smile. Then the plot
"thickens" and Mike and Ike write a
love missive to Mamselle La Piete, an
actress. Mrs. Dooley bribes Tommy,
who is delivering the missive and
when she reads it Immediately loses
her temper with disastrous results to
Mike. Lawyer Marks at the begin
ning of the show works the old "hid
den cop" game and- extracts several
hundred dollars from Mike and Ike to
save his starving wife and 12 chil
dren. His cOmic son?, Bull, Bull.
Bull," wherein he cites Billy Sunday
as the "daddie" of them all, is a riot.
Clarence 'Wurdlg. assisted by the
chorus, sang "Hello! I'.ve Been Look
ing for You," at the bcg'nring of the
show. This was one of th" best musi
cal numbers on the bill.
Other important parts irere taken
by Joan Maidement, as Mr. Leschln

Madeline Mathews cave a fine In

Mike.
Will Rader, who has a fine voice,
took the part of the jawyer with the
red nose. Carlton Chade was the good
looking college boy. He sang "My
Little Dancing Heart," assisted by the
chorus.
One of the best numbers on the bill
was a Spanish fandango dance by
Mike, Ike, Mrs. Dooley and Lillian
Lytell. A special offering for the
week is an Egyptian dance by Ethel

Other musical numbers were "Sa

vehicle drivers' licenses were received
at the office ofthe secretary of state
today. Issuance of these licenses is
made necessary under a new .law

16 years of age who operate motor
'vehicles are requested to obtain these
licenses. Persons under that age will
not be allowed to drive motor vehicles
and persons physically defective must
Teceive a special permit from the sec

BEQUEST SUBJECT TO TAX
$800,000 Left by Late Bernard
Daly to Return $ 1 70,000 to State.
SALEM, Or., June 20. (Special.)
Regardless of any legislation . that
may be enacted at the next regular
session of the legislature in January,
the estate of Bernard Daly, who died
recently at Lakeview, will have to
pay Inheritance tax upon the money
and property left In trust to be used
for the education of worthy young
men and women of Lake county, ac
cording to a' legal opinion of Attor
ney-General Brown.
Mr. Daly set aside hi his will ap
proximately $800,000 for this pur
pose, but because of his failure to
organize a corporation to handle the
fund the state has sought to exact
nearly $170,000 in inheritance taxes.
It is possible, however, according
to local-legislators, that a law will
be enacted providing that estates left
for the promotion of education shall
not be subject to Inheritance taxes.
Dr. W. . T. McElveen . at the First
Congregational church, who preached
tne baccalaureate sermon at the Uni
versity of Oregon yesterday morning,
said in part:
Man is not man as yet. Humanity
has an .upward trend. The present is
but a preparation for the future.
Science loves to ponder over the mys
tery of man's origin. The Bible is
interested in the whither, not the
whence, of man. Science thinks it
has lifted the veil and looked upon
the mystery of mall's beginning.' It
believes that it has traced back the
long, dark, devious way by which
man has journeyed to his present
estate. But what matters it whether
we came from ape or Adam; destina
tion, is everything. The earth is a
youngling yet. Man has only begun
to be.
Soclal Service Ursred.
"Physically the process of evolution
may have reached a consummation," he
said, "but mentally- man is in his be
ginning to be. ' And America, where
all the races of the world meet and
mingle, is the place where the higher
man is to first appear."
Dr. McElveen urges the graduates
to engage in some form of social
service.
He said: "Everything In the world
works; God . works, Christ worked.
The Nazarene said: "My father work,
eth hitherto, and I work." Work is the
manifestation of life. It is com
munion with God to workers. Work
on the part of man Is part of the
creation of God still going on. All
work has something of divineness
about it, while indolence is not only
irreligious, but criminal.
Work Held Essential.
"Solomon said, 'The Idle soul shall
suffer.' while Paul declares that he
that will not labor shall not eat. An
Arabian proverb says. 'Better the dirt
of labor than the saffron of idleness,
- "Some philosopher has divided man
kind into two classes, benefactors and
malefactors. His classification of
mankind would have been more com
prehensive if he had divided it into
laborers and loafers. To laborers we
owe everything that contributes to
the comfort 'and pleasure of life; to
the loafers we owe everything which
disfigures civilization. No man has a
right to fulfill a stagnant, selfish
career. Life Is not a puddle; It is a
running stream. We are not here to
rust, but to work; usage will keep us
bright. The world Is not a dormi
tory, but a workshop. No young man
or woman should live In this zutn
century and not exert an Influence
somewhere."
.N ATURE FOUND SPIRITUAL AID
Rev. Mr. Constant Discusses Native
Beauty in Sermon.
In his sermon at the Highland Con
gregational church yesterday morning
Rev. Edward Constant gave consid
eration to the idea of "The Beauties
of Nature as an Aid to the Spiritual
Life." '
"While the domain of Jesus was
that of religion. It should not be for
gotten," said Mr. Constant, "that he
looked upon the natural realm with
the eye of an artist and a poet. He
often found his place of prayer among
the mounUiins, in the groves or at the
lakeside. He needed not the mechan
ics of worship upon which we so mucn
depend. " '
"The world was nothing less than
a sanctuary resplendent with divin
ity. There were no blanks in nature,
for the presence of God was every
where discerned. There was no cloud
between him and the shining way.
The light which was In him made
luminous the world. The clear, sort
beauty of holiness glittered in the
stars. He saw eternal love mirrored
on the surface of the waters- He
caught the accents of heaven in the
passing breeze. The untainted air
of the mountain heights and the clear
sunshine were ministering angels
which brought comfort to the soul
and health to the body. Out of un
seen wells he drank the water of life
and in the charming vales he found
angels' food."

BISHOP JOHNSON PREACHES
Services Held in Lobby of Hotel by
Visiting: Shrine Divine.
Bishop Eben S. Johnson, of Africa,
one of the visiting Shriners,' preached
yesterday to two Portland congrega
tions. In the morning he spoke in
the lobby of the Multnomah hotel
where the WilDur Methodist church
conducted services. Visiting Shrin
ers were made honor guests, as they
were at the services of First Meth
odist church, the pulpit of which was
occupied by Bishop Johnson during
the evening worship.
"Nothing but Jesus," was Bishop
Johnson's text at tne Multnomah ho
tel. This text, taken from the sec
ond verse of the second chapter of
Corinthians, was given with its his
torical surrounding as related to the
apostle Paul and his experiences.
"Paul's decision to have in his life
nothing but Jesus mjdo him the out
standing man of the ages," said Bish
op Johnson. "Before he arrived at
this decision he had had some prom
inence in his local -community, but
afterward he became a world figure
and stood apart from his fellow men.
The great personality of Jesus be
came a part of his own and through
it he arrived at the successful solu
tion of- many problems.
"Paul's decision is the only hope
of the future. It Is being applied
more and more to affairs of today,
and we have found that it is appli
cable not only to individuals but to
groups and races. The outcome of
such a policy will mean universal
brotherhood for humanity. Just at
present it is the only hope of Africa,
which Is today In the process of be
ing born, of awakening to a national
consciousness.
Bishop Johnson talked on Africa in
nis evening sermon, describing his
experiences during the last several
years that he has been stationed in
oum Africa, and havlntr the suner
vision of Methodist gatherings on that
cununent.

HEAVEN IS HARD TO ENTER
Path to Glory Only, Made Bit at
Time, Says Pastor.
Admission to the gates of heaven
' "" a casnaj anair. Man, following
the passing to the spirit, does not
step from this world Into a paradise
all In one second. The path to heaven
is a hard road, traveled daily, little
by little.
Such was the gist of a sermon de
Ilvered yesterday morning by Dr.
A. A. Morrison, rector at Trinity Epls
copal church. It was based on the
story of the rich young man who
asked Jesus how he could assure him
self of the kingdom of heaven, and
to whom the command to go and giv'e
all his goods to the poor was given
.with the statement that it was harder
for a camel to pass through the eye
of the needle than for a rich man to
enter the kingdom of heaven.
Dr. Morrison interpreted the eye of
tne neecue as tne small gate of a
protection such as was built In an
clent times in eastern cities. A camel.
ne saia, could enter the gate with
difficulty, and so could a rich man
enter the kingdom of God with dif
ficulty-- -.
"Man cannot enter the kingdom of
ood on an Instant s notice," declared
Dr. Morrison. "It takes years of
growth, of struggle and of pren
aration. Even though the determina
