THE MORNING OREGOXIAN, TUESDAY, AUGUST 24, 1920 ORCHESTRA BACKING DEEMED ESSENTIAL $20,000 Asked for Mainte nance of Symphony. FORUM DISCUSSES MATTER Chamber of Commerce to Be Asked Appoint Committee Assist Management. to to The value of a symphony orchestra In general and of Portland's orchestra in particular was explained from all points of view at the luncheon yes terday of the members' forum of the Chamber of Commerce, which ' was given over entirely to a discussion of the needs of Portland's symphony. The programme was appropriately opened with three orchestral numbers by some of the members of the sym phony, led by George E. Jeffery. In introducing Mrs. Donald Spencer, business manager of the orchestra, Charles F. Berg, who presided, ex plained that Mrs. Spencer donates her time and services because of her love for the organization. Mr. Berg is a member of the finance committee of Portland's symphony orchestra. "One of the reasons we should have an orchestra is for the children," stated Mrs. Spencer, who used the "Magnavox," recently at the political conventions, so that her voice could be heard through the large room. "I want to inspire the guardians of the children to maintain an orchestra which will aid children in understand ing the fundamentals of music. "Portland ranks high as an intel lectual center. You would not want to close the public library or the public schools. We must have an orchestra along with other cultural advantages for our children." Appeal Made for Support. Mrs. Spencer explained that the symphony orchestra in Portland is able to play with the best soloists and said prominent musicians from all over the United States have said that Portland has a fine group of musicians in its symphony. "The standing of a community must not be gauged solely by its commercial and industrial progress, but the intel lectual standing must be considered also," declared H. H. Herdman. "Among the organizations which have contributed to our intellectual achievements is the Portland eym- I phony orchestra. I appeal to you for your support and your attendance. "The finance committee in Port land is asking the smallest amount that is being asked in any city which has a symphony. Seattle is raising $80,000; San Francisco, $75,000; Los Angeles, $125,000. Portland, by means of careful management, needs only $20,000 this year. "I wish to pay a high tribute to SIrf. Spencer who has given so freely of her time and ability for this work." Portland should be made a musical center so that students may be at tracted here was the statement of John - F. Logan. "The symphony orchestra is to music, -what the Chamber of Commerce is to business," be said. "One of the emblems of ap pearance that goes to make up the standing of a city is the possession of a symphony orchestra. Committee to Be Requested. We must be careful to maintain our symphony to complete the magnifi cent standing which Portland already has attained." William D. Wheelwright, who was introduced as the "fairy godmother of the symphony," since he has been Identified with its work for so many years, said that Portland has a sym phony of which everyone may be proud. "This splendid record is due in great measure to the musicians them selves," he said. "We owe a great deal to their self sacrifice." Mr. Wheelwright offered a resolu tion that the forum call on the cham ber of commerce directors to appoint a committee of from five to seven members to co-operate with the man agement of the orchestra in making this, the tenth season, a success. The resolution was passed unanimously. Mr. Wheelwright is honorary presi dent of the orchestra. "A symphony orchestra is a busi ness asset for any city," asserted Frank Branch Riley. "It is of un lmagined importance. One of the first questions asked me by eastern people is about the cultural stand ards of our cities here on the fringe of the continent. "Would it not be a shame if we should have to suffer the disgrace of not supporting an orchestra which means so much to us? Our musicians are co-operating in a way not sur passed in any city in the United States." Programme Is Rendered. Twenty musicians, most of whom are members of the Portland sym phony orchestra, gave the following programme: waltz, "Tres Jolie," by F.. Waldteufel; Reverie, "Extase," by lianne; ana 'ritz Kreisler's "Llebes lied.".The personnel was first violins, Air jetrery, A. Wunderwald, J. F. N. colburn, Frank Eichenlaub; second violins, A.

"I feel like I would be doing any body who is suffering like I was a good turn by getting them to take Tanlac, for it has certainly put an end to my troubles," declared Mrs. Ed Holmes of 7037 Ninth avenue Northwest, Seattle, Wash. "For years my stomach has trou bled me, and I've been in a general run-down condition. I suffered from loss of appetite and had indigestion eo bad I couldn't eat meat at all, and everything else seemed to fer ment and sour in my stomach. I had dreadful pains in my stomach and gas would bloat me up so at times I could hardly breathe. I had such awful headaches that they would nauseate me and make me eick. and ,1 became so dizzythat I would almost fall over. Rheumatism seemed to be all through my body, and my arms and legs ached continually so that I could hardly get around. At night I could scarcely eleep on ac count of the pain and restlessness, and I was in such a run-down con dition that it was an awful task for me to do the least little thing. "Well, you Just don't know how glad I am that I decided to give Tanlac a trial, for it has certainly put me in fine condition. My appe tite is so good I enjoy everything I eat, and my stomach is in such splen did order I eat meat and everything else I want without it causing me a particle of trouble. I'm no longer bothered with headaches, nausea, or dizziness, and I'm so free from rheu matism that there's nothing left but the memory of it. My sleep is sound and refreshing, and I've gained a number of pounds in weight. Tanlac has greatly benefited my daughter and other members of our family, and I just can't praise it enough for all it's done for us." Tanlac is sold in Portland by the Owl Drug company. . Bilious?

"I was run down and nervous, could not rest at night and was more tired in the morning than when I went to bed. I have two children, the youngest three months old, and it was drudgery to care for them as I felt so irri table and gener ally worn out. From lack of rest and appetite my "baby did not get enough nourishment from my milk so I started to give him-two bottle feed ings a day. After takinir three bot tles of Lydia E.
