SCOUT POLICY QUITO
LOCAL LEADERS ARE TOLD OF
SPECIAL DUTIES.
Deputy Clilpf Eiecutlv Declares
' Activities of IJojs Should
Meet Community Xeeds.
Activities of the Boy Scouts must
be directed bo as to fit in with the life
and needs of the community, said Dr.
JeurKe J. Fisher, deputy chief scout
executive from New York, advising
scout leaders in the programmes for
the coming year, when he closed the
annual convention of the 11th region
yesterday afternoon.
lie declared the organization to be
one of social service and as such
should co-operate with other organi
sations of the same order in the com
munity. Executives were advised to
look to the best Interests of the boys
rather than to those of the organiza
tion, and to steer a straight, simple
course, avoiding side issues and com
plexlties, and teach the boys in their
charge to do the same.
The four days' programme of the re
gional conference was ended last night
with a dinner to the delegates given
by the Portland scouts Jn the dining
room of the Chamber of Commerce.
The work of the last day consisted of
dealing with administration problems.
Dr. Fisher, in a morning address on
financial campaigns, explained the
stand of the scout body in refusing to
collect funds for other organizations.
"Jtequests are coming to us con
stantly." he said, "for the use of our
boy troops In collecting money. The
scouts would soon gain the ill will
of any community if we granted such
nurnerous requests and allowed the
boys to be exploited."
Resolutions thanking Mayor Baker,
the clubs which have entertained the
delegates during the week, and other
Institutions that have aided in vari
ous ways In the conference, were
passed following the final address of
Dr. Fisher.
Ing sought to establish a time alibi
in the court of Circuit Judge Gatens
yesterday which would tend to prove
that he could not have been at the
home of Mr. and Mrs. Henry W. Col
lins at the time the residence was
ransacked and Collins was shot by
the intruder.
Stress was laid by Burns Powell
attorney for the young man. on the
fact that witnesses testified to see
ing Harding about three miles from
the Collins home at Bell station about
IS minutes before the crime. Deputy
District Attorney Graham countered
with witnesses who saw him near the
scene. In addition to the identifica
tion of Mr. and Mrs. Collins.

who alleged he lost nearly J5000 on
forged notes bought from Myrtle

quitted. Arthur Gurnsey had testified that
he had given back to Allen $400 of
$700 lost by William A. Hodge, com
plaining witness, on a forged $3900

VETERAN CARRIER QUITS
La Grande Man lietircs From Rural
Mall Route; Served 19 Years.
LA GRANDE. Or., Oct. 20. (Spe
cial.) M. F. Van Housen has retired
from carrying ma'l on the Alicel
rural route after 19 years of con
tinuous service on the one route.
During the entire time he never has
missed a day because of illness and
only on two or three occasions was
the weather so bad that he could not
go out on his route.
His route was about 26 miles In
length and during the 19 years he
traveled it he drove 151,658 miles," or
more than s'x times the distance
around the earth. Until 1919 he used
horses but since that time he has
usually used a machine, falling back
on Old Dobbin, however, many times
during the winter months and during
the rainy season.
Integrity of Oriental Xatlon Is
Declared to Be Salvation of
Celestial Peopfe.
The hope that the American public
will stand for the integrity of China
was expressed by Lawrence Todnem.
Y. M. C. A. secretary at Tsinanfu.
Shantung, China, In an address at
the luncheon of the Progressive Busi
ness Men's club at the Benson hotel
yesterday. He predicted that China
would be the -big issue at the arma
ment conference at Washington, D. C.
"There is a pernicious propaganda
going forth that China Is unable to
take care of her own affairs," he said.
The speaker denied that this was true.
He said that the present turmoil :n
China was significant of the efforts
of that nation to overcome some of
the things which were holding the
country back.
Mr. Todnem told of the need for
transportation facilities tn China and
expressed the belief that it was this
need whioh, more than anything else,
was holding China back. He said the
development of transportation also
was retarded by the system which had
permitted different countries to have
"spheres of Influence" there.
Mr. Todnem was formerly of Port
land and he is now on furlough here
for a short time. He has been in
China for the last six years.
Seid G. Back made an appeal for
better treatment of the Chinese in
this country on the part of the Americans.
Percussion Instruments in
Orchestra Described.
Chief t xe of Battery Is to Get
Rhythmical Accent.
Read The Oreeonlan classified ads.
BY CAVERLY BEAUMONT.
ARTICLE No. 6.
PERCUSSION Instruments are those
which are made to vibrate by
beating or shaking. They are often
referred to as "the battery," and their
chief use is for rhythmical accent.
Tone is produced by beating instru
ments of the drum and bell class. To
the former belong the side drum or
snare drum, associated with pieces of
a military character, and the tympanl
or kettle drums. The tympanl are the
most important of the drums, because
they can be tuned to a definite pitch.
They are of oriental origin, and in
their primitive state were made by
stretching a parchment over half a
gourd. Now they are made of copper
and calfskin. King Henry VIII is said
to have sent to Hungary for the first
tympanl used in England. He wanted
them for his cavalry band.
Bell effects are produced from the
carillon, xylophone, marimba and the
chimes. The carillon has a metal
keyboard and comes from the French
and Germans, while the xylophone has
a keyboard of wooden bars and orig
inated among the Tartars and Rus
sians. The marimba is an Instrument
similar to the xylophone. It was de
veloped. in Guatemala and became pop
ular at the Panama-Pacific exposition
in 1915. The chimes are produced from
metal tubes which hang vertically.
The celesta is an Instrument "with
a divinely beautiful tone, something
between a carillon and a piano," to
use the words of Tschafkowski, who
discovered It in 1891 In Paris.
Other instruments of percussion are
the triangle, a simple Instrument
whlc hhas a tinkling tone; the gong,
or tom-tom, which comes to us from
China: the cymbals, which were used
by the ancient Egyptians. Assyrians.
Hebrews and Greeks, and the tambou
rine and castanets, which come to us
from Spain. The word "Castanet"
comes from the Spanish "castagna."
meaning "chestnut," the wood from
which they were originally made.
Tone is produced from the last two
named instruments by shaking.
Tomorrow's story How orchestral
music differs from every other kind.
liSANITTraSE PLEA
PROSPECTIVE JURORS IX HEX.
DERSOX CASE QUESTIONED.
TO
Prosecutors Indicate Murder of Di
vorced Wife Was Cold-Blooded.
Defendant Is Pale.
, Emotional insanity brought about
by family strife will be the defense
offered by Joseph J. Henderson,
slayer of bis divorced wife, questions
fired by his attorney, Barnett H.
Goldstein, at prospective Jurors yes
terday indicated. Henderson, who by
heredity did not have a strong mind,
had been surrounded for four years
by constant family trouble, litigation
and persecution, said the lawyer In
asking Jurors if they would be pre
judiced against a defense of Insanity.
On the other hand, Maurice E.
Crumpacker and George Mowry,
deputy district attorneys, indicated
by their questioning that the murder
was cold-bloodetl, premeditated and
without slightest cause. The regular
Jury panel was exhausted yesterday
afternoon and a special venire sum
moned. The twelfth Juror was ac
cepted for cause before adjournment
last night but no peremptory chal
lenges have yet been exercised.
Henderson was a pitiful figure In
the courtroom, with pale, emaciated
face from which one eye stared dully.
He fired a bullet through the other
eye in an attempt at suicide when
surrounded by officers in his mother's
chicken house, where he had fled
after the murder. A little boy clung
to his father's hand during the day
but the other two children displayed
no affection for the man who had
killed their mother.
The Hendersons were divorced last
June, the mother being awarded cus
tody of two of the children. On the
morning of August 8 last, Henderson
went to his wife's home, 1072 East
Nineteenth street, North, and after
threatening her with a revolver for
almost half an hour, seized a butcher
knife and stabbed her to death.
MAN FALLS UNDER CAR
Amputation of Leg Necessary as
Result of Injuries.
W. H. Parker, 31, and married, fell
beneath the wheels of a St. Johns
street car at Broadway and Larrabee
street shortly before 5 P. M. yester
day. He was removed to St. Vin
cent's hospital, where it became nec
essary to amputate the leg just above
the ankle. His right knee also was
badly hurt.
Parker, who lives with his wife
and child at the Grand Union hotel,
was bound for St. Johns, where he is
employed by the Western Cooperage
company.
Motorcycle Patrolman Kelly, who
Investigated the accident, said there
was no negligence on the part of the
car operators. It was said at the
hospital that Parker will recover.

"Several years ago, one John Long, a Chinese merchant came into our store and bought
of us a watch, and thereby hangs a tale.
Now this watch was a Waltham watch movement in a Solid Gold 14-karat Mansard
shape case. For some particular reason this individual watch failed to find a customer.
It was a good watch and should have sold for $125 when it was first purchased. It was
in the show case so many years that we organized against it and put its price down and
again put its price down, and each invoice of that stock still found this watch one of its
members. Well, we kept cutting this watch's price until we asked about what the case
weighed in gold. I think at this time of the telling as my memory serves me the amount
of the sale was ?35, and to JOHN LONG, a Chinese Gentleman, Well, before he took the
watch out we went entirely over it and removed all the old oil and it did keep splendid
time after the new oil was placed in it.
Well, we did not make anything on that sale if you count that watch by itself, but I want to tell you right here,
that was one of the very best deals that this store made in its life. John Long found out what he had and he was
not backward in telling his friends about it and he brought us several customers and they in turn brought others,
who trust us and believe in us and have since the buying of this watch bought thousands of dollars' worth at this store.
We are now putting some of these watches that we have had in stock for some time on the
market and for you to get something of value out of these articles that are lying dormant in
our showcases. We want them to do you some good and we will stand back of every one of
them and see that they give you satisfaction.
sk
"Can you think of any inanimate object that you can make as much of a companion of
as you can of a good reliable pretty watch ? It will time your appointments in all your so
cial and business relations. You will retire at night by it and consult it the very first thing
in the morning; you will go to your meals by its hands regardless of your appetite; you can
depend upon it. Then have one that is strictly dependable. All of the watches put in this
sale are dependable and are high class and would have sold long ago if we could have felt
that we could sell them at the prices that we have placed upon them in this sale.
We have seen their neighbors, bought from the factories at the same time, go and
some of these stay on our hands for no reason that we can see. Now they are yours for
the prices named, and let us iell you here that you can have any of them on credit if you
are entitled to credit.
