These are the" prevailing r MlnirnnM tnH.iv In fh rnmmnnltv chest Campaign. Early this morning General Robert E. Smith will issue his laconic order, "shoot." He may use more classic language than this, but the word will go down the line through bis four brigadier-generals heading the four divisions, through their colonels to captains and lieutenants, for the line to sweep forward and take the whole town by storm. General Smith believes he Is lead Ing a campaign army trained as none other has been In any former Port land drive. Each unit In every di vision knows Just what to do in any situation thai may arise. There, are subscription books, blanks, cards and other sorts of ammunition, all de signed to win. subscriptions, prevent duplication of effort and fill the chest In the shortest possible time. Quick Action Wanted. It only remains for every citizen of Portland to respond to the spirit so manifest throughout the campaign army. Every person approached Is urged to do his part and do It quickly. General Smith calls upon everyone to save his own tiroe and that of the solicitor by deciding beforehand upon the very biggest amount he can give to the chest and fe'lve thut amount quickly. It will be only by doing this that Portland people will make it possible for the campaign to be completed within the week, and this Is the high hope of everybody engaged In it. In deed, some of the brigadier-generals. fam L. Eddy, particularly, believe that If citizens will fall In line with this suggestion and act accordingly, the big drive can be put over within threo days. The public Is urged not to hem and huw when the solicitor arrives and waste tlm In wondering how much tho subscription should be. The an swer to any of these doubts Is that contributions should be Just as much as they can possibly be made because need are greater than ever before. 1t ii pointed out by the, campaign of ficials. Advisory Schedule Drawn. To meet cases where doubts pre vail as to the size of contributions on the part of the subscriber, an advis ory schedule has been prepared that will servo, for Information. This schedule Is In all cases a minimum one, and It must be exceeded very generally If the required budKet Is to be raised. In no case should It be discounted. Merely as a suggestive help In case of doubt, the chest of ficials ask that it be given consider ation. This schedule follows: suiorested Monthly Income subscription. 1'mWr flOO IH to !:. t .7.1 I . to -'" 1.00 to $ruo 2.o :ti! to 9mh.i a. (Ml Hot to .M . 6.00 Per year.

It has been trained to the minute, and is "in the pink." For a week now many of the generals, colonels, cap tains and lieutenants have been on their toes and champing at the bit. They are determined that the maxi mum result shall be reached within the shortest possible time and every single one wants the public generally to co-operate by giving quickly and saving time. Kfflclenry Is Proved. A year's operation of tho commu nity chest has proved to the satisfac tion of all Portland the efficiency and economies in this new way of handling Portland's work. This Is another reason for the . confidence felt that the campaign will be a short and de cisive one, with victory obtained be fore the week's end. During last year's campaign, the first drive In Portland for community client funds, every prospect supplied an argument that had to be overcome before subscriptions were obtained. It Is believed this will not be the case this year, but that as soon as the lieutenant appears to take contribu tions, the citizen will be ready, even with his pen in hand or his wallet open, to give and give smilingly, knowing that this one drive elimin ates all others throughout the whole year. .No greater sens of satisfaction ni'l be felt by the triumphant lieu tenant who takes these willing con tributions than by the subscriber to tliu chest himself, who must realize the tremendous benefits to the city's unfortunate by reason of his gener csity. Bombs To. Be Set Off. , At noon today all Portland will know the chest campaign la on formally when big aerial bombs will be set off frtyn a barge on the river, yiren horns will roar the news, as well. Charles Mllliman ofthe fea tures bureau of the publicity com mittee, is In charge of this detail. At noon, too. at Sixth and Alder meets, a ceremony will be made of d-oppiug a flag at the top of an SO fuui atrial firs truck ladder and ' Orpheurq. BY LEONE CASS BAER. MAMMA MARX'S four boys are again at the Orpheum and head lining as usual. They are so well re membered from previous visits that as each appeared he received a welcome. There Is Herbert, tne comedian of the family, of misfit clothes and beatific smile. There is Julius, the good-looking flower of the household. who wears smart clothes and plays the hero roles in whatever plays the Marx Brothers have written around themselves. There Is Leonard, who al ways is Identified with an Italian make-up and an inability to "spik de Engleesh, and there is Arthur, Arthur la the silent one, the plump lad who wears a flaming red wig surely It's a wig, for no human hair could be so acutely pink. Arthur is the one who lugs in a big golden harp and touches its strings with magic fingers. In this new act called "On the Bal cony." which Herman Timberg put together for the brothers, they ap pear, one at a time, in a booking agency seeklng.Jobs on the stage. In turn each does an imitation of the in evitable Frisco and is given the ozone by the unhappy agent, and then it ia that Julius trots out the manuscript for an act In which he can use not only the 'three amateurs but the book ing agent as well. What happens from that point on Is rich entertain ment, with Just enough plot to string together the various specialties of the four. Leonard is a Paderewskt f syncopation and delights immeasur ably with his playing. Original little tricks of fingering along the keys called forth much applause for Leon ard. -J-'our slim and graceful dancing maids and a Uspth-ing heroine and a dignified show girl who plays the heroine's fond mother people the plot whenever the Marx boys- stop .for breath. The outstanding feature in the whole act Is Herbert's quiet . . . - r t;rlclle fry ttaiVKin i comedy. He never laughs at his own Yvonn, Henrlette Maisonnave. each been drawn from life. There fs the French girl, her big bluff Amer ican soldier Jim. his pal and buddie Eddie of the air service, his gentle old mother, the small town politician and bigwig and his slacker son who stayed at home and piled up money and talks of hia exemption for flat feet whenever the subject of the war comes up. There is the slacker's swain, a snippy chocolate eclair girl wno leads tne younger set. ana there's the breezy girl who waited table in Chicago and falls for Eddie, the air service lad. There are a trio of small-town characters which are wholly delightful, whether viewed singly, in duos or as a trio. One of these is the military expert of the Rumor Republican, an aged veteran in faded blue whose spare moments when be Isn't reporting for his sheet are spent In collecting dialogue and incidents for a play he Is writing. This character is made delightful by George P. Webster. His assumption of "cricks In his back," twinges of rheumatics In his joints when he gets too spry, and hiB quavering voice make the character a memorable portrait, aside from its excellence in delineation. Guy B. Kihbee is another of the town's celebrrtles. He Is a true son of democracy and sells "cold tea" with a wlnJc to the drummers. When It turns out to fee. really cold tea the purchaser cannot make complaint. Kibbee's simulation of the character is very fine. f William A- Lee. as young Butch the rube and slacker, is the third of the trio of village celebrities and his portrayal is an excellent one. Thl is Frances Woodibury's last week. She deserves much commenda tion for her spirited and sympathetic study of Jim's girl. Her realization of line values Is noteworthy, and all her speeches, In broken English have the proper cadences. Selmer Jackson is a manly Jim.

Among the girls who appear in the act one is worth mentioning. She is Lucy Diamond, who dances nicely. Geneve Butler is a charming girl who sings easily and smoothly a series of melodies that bring out the delightful qualities in her very fine soprano. Geneve is easy to look at. too, and has birdlike movements and graceful little moods and manners to go along with the lovely voice. Leo Flanders at the piano elicits a storm of applause with Ills rag-time playing. Vlela Victoria, a dainty spirited young toe dancer in a programme of Spanish esthetic dance Interpreta tions, affords an Interesting contrast to the gay and lively Spanish novelty and folk dancing offered by Pilarica and Pace, a Spanish woman and man, the two other members of the Pilarica trio. Beautiful and picturesque cos tumes enhance this artistic -dance act which comes to us from the court of King Alfonso. Harry Lang' Is of the eccentric comedian type and, with his very blonde partner, Jeanne Vernon, he haa a lengthy and correspondingly exciting argument oveV the names, of the firm that employs him, names like What and Who and Him and He, which, naturally, offer ample field for puns and tangled talk. Some of it Is amusing, but It Is Lang's own com edy actions that bring out the fun. Garcinetti brothers have a smart and Interesting bull pup in their hat throwing act. The dog plays ball with the audience and there's lively goings on. The Innis brothers are the third of the brother acts, the Marx brothers, Garcinetti brothers and Innis broth ers being all on one bill. The Innia two are good dancers. Their best bat Is when one plays a mouth-harp and the other one dances. .Frances Woodbury Jim Bedford , Selmer Jackson Mrs .Mary Bedford Lora Ropers WW 1 Dibbs George P.Webster Betty Bruce Jane Ollroy Windy Miller Ouy B.

BT LEONE CASS BAER, THERE Is such a distinct quality of cultured and intelligent work manship in "Jim's Girl," which opened for a week's run last night at the Baker, that It will undoubtedly de light those who visit tthe playhouse for the purpose of having their wits sharpened and for amusement of a diverting, refined character. Uy clever dialogue that represents the conversation of Just such persons as the play contains, and not the pat ter of pseudo smart comedies, the charm of an excellent performance by a carefully trained cast, and above all the delightful humor of its comedy. the play carries a distinct appeal. Its leisurely construction rather heightens the Interest by way of giv ing more time to the careful develop ment of Its main Idea, namely, 'the advent of Jim's girl, and the part she plays In the community of the small town of Rumor, Ind. The whole performance provides no particularly exacting test of the abili ties of the Baker players, because the types are those of small-town folk, which roles fall so often to stock actors, that no wide variation from the usual is expected. These roles, the social, literary and civic lights of the village do, however, furnish op portunities for plcturesqueness color and vitality in characterization, and these were readily and admirably- grasped. Jims girl Is a pathetic small figure, young French girl who has come to the America she has always loved. aking passage as a stowaway on an army transport in order to be near the big Jim with whom she has fallen n love. Scandal follows on the heels of tho girl's arrival in Jim's home, for ttfat young American takes her directly to his home when her presence is dis covered upon landing. Red tape ac companies her admission into the country and the citizens ot Rumor, Indiana, attach a significance in the presence of the girl at Jim's home. That young Boldier has returned to find that during his absence over there hia old widowed mother had been financially ruined by one old Hiram Butch, the political leader of the county, who had taken advantage of her lack of ' business understand ing. ' The task before the boy Jim is to win back for his mother and himself the prestige and moneys concerned in the deal, made unwittingly by his mother and the old skinflint. He has a task also to set the French girl right In the eyes of the narrow visioned populace, and this he ac complishes, along with other victo ries, among thembeatlng the old pol itician in the' game of politics. The characters seem as if .they had Hippodrome. LD favorites were greeted en thusiastically at the Hippodrome yesterday with the opening of a bill which presents a number of actora on their second tour of the season. Charles Mack and-company bring in a touch of the real old Irish comedy that never fails to draw a hearty laugh In- "A Friendly Call." As the old Celt with one foot In the grave. Mack entrusts hia bank roll to a friend with the request that he see to his decent burial. The bank roll, however, is recalled after a few old numbers of the Irish pipes put circulation back into Charlie's legs and induce him to make a very red (table attempt at a clog dance. iward J. Lambert, Hebrew come ... takes a sprightly part In his own act, "Youth and Beauty," and steps In at an opportune time for a part In the following number. Minnie Fish as the foil in the "Youth and Beauty" skit takes little applause in her first appearance as an emaciated woman soloist, but her transforma Hon in the final part pf the act pro duces something of enthusiasm. A quartet of youths In unconven tlonal attire who might pass for a serenading group of college bloods make up the Kee Tom four. Their act calls for a variety of songa with jome snappy solo numbers. Joe Petri and his sister Margaret make a distinct hit In their number. which combines Joe'a performance on the harp and vocal numbers by his sister. "Billy Adams and Eva Geru appear in character roles In a -clever skit, "Then and Now." Song and dance parts enliven the -number. The photo play for the week fea tures Owen Moore in "The Chicken In the Case." The theme of the play dwells on the prodigal nephew and the none-too-lndulgent aunt, who sometimes regrets the Impulse that led her husband to will his property to the nephew before hia death. Owen Moore as Steve.' the nephew, connives with his friends-to bring about the conventional fake wedding in an un conventional way to get .around a stipulation in the will. After many laughable episodes a real wedding results and the aunt becomes reconciled to conditions when she finds that ahe can no longer bar her nephew from the estate.

EN DILLON and Al Franks add to their reputation as one of the most popular comedy teams in the west by their' laugh-getting efforts in "The Two Thieves," the new mu sical comedy offering that opened at the Lyric yesterday afternoon. The characters of Mike Dooley and Ike Leschlnskl, played respectively by Dillon and Franks, have a flock of merry adventures In athe new show, and each adventure Is the sig nal for many' laughs. Although Dil lon and Franks have worked to gether for many seasons, the combi nation seems to have a firm grasp on Lyric patrons, judging from the hearty reception given the pair of fan-making favorites yesterday aft ernoon. "The Two Thieves" Is another of the pleasing plays gathered by Dil lon in the course of his temporary retirement from the footlights re cently. In the leisure of his life as a gentleman farmer in southern Cal liornia, he selected new musical shows, and he picked a winner in the current attraction. The opening number, in which the Rosebud chorus maids appear in cos tumes that blend like a rainbow, is up to the standard of many a $2 enow. There are enough laughs in the action of the plot to scrap the blues of the audience for more than an hour. But the merit of the play does not rest alone on comedy. The song numbers go over in fine style, espe cially "Italian Serenade." sung by Ted Ulunark: "Irene." by Howard Evans, and "By the Old Ohio Shore," by Dorothy Raymond. An effective number Is "I Want My Mammy," by Jewel LaVelle, with Anna Chick pos ing as an old-time plantation mammy. Billie Bingham is a decided hit singing "Whistle the Blues Away." down the full length a huge banner bearing the campaign slogan. "Sure we'll help." will run.

Announcement to this ef fect was made yesterday after many unavailing efforts to obtain music tor the occasion. Continued inquiries during the past week from the railroads for prices on car materials and the upper grades of lumber have added encouragement to the hopes of the lumbermen of the northwest for future buainess. The export business has not In creased and conditions remain the same as they have been since the first of the year. Reports from Japan and other points of the orient are that the porta are congested to such a degree that there ia no possi bility for an increased business for some time. The lumbermen, bow ever, are Inclined to the belief that rtils excuse is made while the deeper motive on the part of the oriental purchasers is to bring the market down. Prospects Look Good. The Atlantic coast trade during the week has remained the same as pre vlously, but indications for future business are promising. There ia at present no inclination on the part of the agricultural dis tricts to make lumber purchases These districts are in dire need of lumber to carry on their building demands, but they have not the money or the credit to make pur chases. Lumbermen have practically given up hopes of receiving large .orders from the farming districts until after tha next crops are har vested. California Feels Market. California lumber salesmen have been in the northwest during the week getting in touch with- the lum bermen and the mills are making preparations for a great increase in business when weather permits. There was no Increase felt during the past week, howevar. This has been due to the fact that weather conditions have been bad. The storms in southern California held up the demands for lumber for two weeks after the first of the year. These storms were followed by se vere frosts and the delay in orders was continued. Salesmen reported that within a short time the Cali fornia demand will be much greater. Los Angelea and the entire southern part of the -state will buy in large volumes, as was the case all last year. Striken Stop Baying. In 1921 the strike of building trades of San Francisco - held up building to the extend that there were few orders 'from that section. This strike has practically been set tled and a great demand for lumber Is expected. In order to carry on the building that was held up last year and proceed with the plans for this season, greater orders will be placed with Oregon mills. It Is the universal opinion of lum bermen here that within three weeks the lumber market will show a great improvement. There can be no question but what the railroads are preparing to buy In large volumes. Their Inquiries for prices have been coming into the offices of the leading mills of the northwest since the first of the year. Where there are In quiries purchases will follow, according- to the lumbermen. Koada Need Cars. Last year there was scarcely any buying among the railroads. They made the old cars suffice to carry on their business. Now. business condi tions with them have felt an improve ment and cars must be constructed to meet the demands. The shingle market Is weak for so reason other than that the ordinary markets are not purchasing. The mills look for a much Stronger mar ket as soon as weather conditions im prove. Some of the mills have closed down, but others have continued to run and are stocking their output so that they may be prepared when better prices and stronger demand prevail Lumbermen Are Hopeful. Lumbermen are not pessimistic over the fact that conditions during the past week have not been what they had hoped. They realize that weather conditions have been such that an In creased business could not have been expected. They pin their hopes of the future in the increased demands from the railroads, industrial centers of the east and the markets of Cali fornia. They also look for a revival of the export business within a short tirsre. The orient needs lumber and the demands can only be supplied by the mills of the northwest. Reports of the Four L represents tlves throughout tne northwest were practically identical with the Infor mation that comes direct from the lumbermen themselves. The lumber demand from all sources, except the agricultural, is good. Actual busi ness Is not developing rapidly, but nevertheless exists, and has been held back because buyers think that the price advances will be rescinded. Japaneae Buying Slumps. The Four-L mills reported a fall ing off of Japanese business. Em ployment conditions are stationary. but indications are that, starting February. 1, unemployment will de crease rapidly. Weather conditions have been re sponsible ' for closing down many logging camps. Only 25 per cent of the camps along the" Columbia river are open. The remainder await bet ter weather conditions. . One of the most favorable reports came from Marsnneld, where one company has put on a third shift to handle rush orders. This conditions is far from general in the lumber in dustry. sure the appearance of the speeder, and went on his way to look for other speeders. The traveling man hastened to see Judge Philip, acknowledged he was going 45 miles an hour, but said that if the check was cashed he would be embarrassed for traveling expenses. for the next traveling expense check 1 was not due until February 5. He I did not complain of the amount of bail, but he could not spare the money "right now." The Judge said that no report had been turned in. but that when it did j reach him he would hold the check until after a full investigation of j the matter, and intimated that if the' traveling man wouldn't be in so much of a hurry hereafter, he might reduce the fine. a-mira - m held JAMES O.

Dewell, ex-Southern Pa cific station agent at Dayton, Or, was arrested at McMinnville Satur day and brought to Portland by de partment of justice operatives on a federal indictment charging him with embezzlement of government funds.
