LINNTON TO GET PLANT Nine-Acre Tract With Both Rail and Water Accommodations i Secured for Factory. Articles of - Incorporation of the Portland Vegetable Oil company, capi talized at $1,000,000. were filed at the courthouse yesterday. S. L. Eddy, C. A. Edwards and Prescot W. Cook- Ingham are nailed as the incorpora tors. This new Portland industry, which is expected to use 2000 tons of copra a month when the plant Is In opera- Ion, is the result of the removal of the branch factory of the Palmollve ompany to San Francisco several months ago following the burning of the local plant here. C. A. Edwards, ne of the incorporators, was chair man of the committee appointed by the Chamber of Commerce at that time to investigate the question of estab lishing such an industry here. Much Stock Already Sold. The capital stock of the company is divided into 10.000 shares at a par value of $100 per share. 'It is said that more than half of that amount already has been subscribed by Port land business men, and no trouble Is expected by officers of the company in disposing of the remainder. Offi cers and directors of the new cor poration were elected recently, and as soon as the complete organization is effected an extensive stck-selllng campaign will be inaugurated. The new factory, which will be one of the best-equipped plants of Its kind In the -United States, will be located at Llnnton on a nine-acre tract with a water frontage of 400 feet. This tract is between the rail way tracks and the water and has the advantage of both water and rail accommodations. Buildings of a per manent nature are contemplated, with reinforced concrete bulkheads and modern docks on the property. The location on deep water is of great importance inasmuch as 25,000 tons of copra coming for the most part from the Dutch East Indies, will be handled each year. Ships to be char tered by the company are expected to take lumber cargoes on the return trip to the South Seas, going to Aus tralia and New Zealand when neces sary. Indiutry Important One The importance of the new Industry was recognized by the Chamber of Commerce in its Investigations some months ago. 'Several of the by-prod ucts of the industry are valuable In cake form as a concentrated food used for stock when mixed with roughage. There is said to be a good market for this product in the north west. There are no large pressing plants in the Dutch East Indies, where copra production is heaviest, because of the difficulty met with In shipping the oil and also because of the lack of a market for the meal. There are some pressing plants in the Philippines, but a foreign market for the meal must be found there. As the production of the meal represents a large percent age of the income from the industry the success of the plant here Is con sidered practically assured. BABY TRIAL DATE IS FIXED MRS.

Any slight disorder or impurities is a source of danger, as every vital or gan of the body depends upon the blood supply- to properly perform its functions. Many painful and dangerous dis eases are the direct result of a bad Mrs. Douglas In a dance revue while vacation days are here. Mrs. Doug laa, who is a beautiful athletic young woman, brings memories of the Mor gan Dancers in her skillful physical interpretations of dance ideas. She has three dance eolos of distinction and the specialties of hr pupils make up the rest of the act. One lit tle maid in pink satin is an ex quisite toe dancer and is destined to go high in her art.

His line of chatter is funny and sparkles with new ideas. He juggles soap bubbles which he blows and then puts a life-size woolen baby through infantile antics that are mirth-provacative. There's a wholesomeness and a freshness about Griff that Is apparent constantly and ne audience warmed to him and ate out of his hand. He is a humorist as well as a comedian and has the rare gift of personality to put in his tricks. Beth Lambert is a likable lass, who gives a capital Irene Franklin im personation and sings besides. Eddie Lambert at the piano is likable, too, and together the two put across a dandy song-a-logue. Senator Murphy has returned chuck-full of new political argument wnicn keeps his hearers chortling with joy. He is still "chairman of the committee" and as always quite in earnest and very funny.
