The board of school trustees of the Episcopal church for the diocese of Oregon today filed in the supreme court here a petition for rehearing of the case involving- Rev. Dr. A. A. Morrison of Portland, member of the board, who was charged with vio lating his trust in connection .with the investment of school funds in real estate at a profit to himself. The supreme court, in an opinion written by Justice McBride and handed down two weeks ago, exon erated Dr. Morrison from all wrong-doing. The supreme court held in this opinion that the board of trustees had full knowledge of Dr. Morrison's transactions and that the land purchased by him was in tended for school purposes. The court was unable to find that Dr. Morrison profited to any extent as a result of the deal. Transactions Set Forth. "In this case," said the petition for rehearing, "an opportunity came to Dr. Morrison to acquire an inter est in 1015 acres of land, and a cor poration of which he was a trustee in possession of a fund was willing to acquire a part of that land. "The defendant, on one hand, ac quired a deed to the acreage, with the details arranged that the title to 100 acres could be secured free and unencumbered for $24,000.. The title to 915 acres could be secured encumbered by a mortgage, the principal indebtedness of which would aggregate ?16,000. "On the other hand, as a trustee and committeeman of the board and its vice-chairman, the-i defendant was authorized to borrow $25,000. With this morey in hand ' the de fendant took a cjeed from Bland Herring and wife to himself for the entire Oakhill farm in Yamhill county, grave a mortgage back'1 for $20,000. paid 520,000 for the- deed, kept $1000 personally, and used $4000 to obtain a release of the mortgage on 100 acres of land. Profit of $1000 Alleged. "From these facts the court must 1 conclude that Dr. Morrison actually accomplished a profit of $1000 in oasli which he converted to his own use and for which he made no ac count. "What did Dr. Morrison do with the money constituting the differ . ence between $24,000, the maximum outlay for the 100 acres which he isold to the board of school direc tors, and the $25,000, which he re ceived from the board? "The writer of this argument can not accept the doctrine that the opinion of. the court Is intended to be an approval of the transactions dis closed by this record. It may well be that the gentlemen who were present and who participated in the purchase of the 100 acres believed, and that respondent believed, they were getting full worth of the money paid, and if the court so find as it undoubtedly has, we accej that finding as a fart in the case. Transaction Held Irregular. "This will dispose o,f the claim that the 100 acres were sold for a price greater than its value, but it will not dispose of the question of fact, as it undoubtedly is a fact, of one of the trustees personally arhieving a profit out of the trans action, not w ithstandin? the belief aforesaid that the 100 acres of land were worth $25,000. "By this petition we ask the court to tell us whether or not it approves that transaction. As at presently advised, counsel for the board re tains a lingering suspicion, yea, even more than that, a positive con viction, that whatever may be the belief of the defendant as to his legal and moral integrity and what ever may have been the character of his good faith, there is only one view that has the indorsement of the precedent and the approval of equity and that is that those profits belong to the fund.

Arrangements Made for Imme diate Hearings by Two Sen ate Committees. WASHINGTON, D. C.t Dec. 11. Farm credit legislation received in congress today an impetus which both republican and democratic leaders said insured legislation in behalf of agriculturalists during the present session Arrangements were made for im mediate hearings by two senate committees and today the unofficial senate farm bloc met and made plans to press the credit extension legislation Bi-partisan support for major features of administration recom mendations to expand credit of farmers was indicated. Bloc in dorsement, meaning that of demo crats as well as republicans, for important features of the Lenroot- Anderson bill, which had the ap proval of administration officials, was said to be promised. Demo cratic members of the bloc said that President Harding and the administration had "come around" and given their support to the credit legislation previously urged by the bi-partisan agricultural group. The senate banking and agricul tural committees will proceed to morrow with "double-header" hear ings on farm credit affairs. The banking committee is to begin hearings on the Lenroot-Anderson and other credit bills and the agri cultural committee is to proceed with hearings on the othe.r credit phases. The agricultural committee today heard Senator-elect Frazier, republican of North Dakota, who toid of the need of farmers for credit and other aid and for several days- western - delegations repre senting agricultural interests are to give testimony. Among the bills to be taken up by the senate banking committee possibly for incorporation in an omnibus credit measure, is that of Senator Borah,' republican of Idaho, to limit the profits of joint Bt jck land banks to 6 per cent. The com mittee also has before it other bills to repeal tax exemption privileges of such banks, whose continuance has been questioned by Secretary Mellon as of doubtful value.

Loveliness can be purchased at the corner drug store to be beautiful one needs only to know how to make one's self so in the opinion of Cor liss Palmer, former Macon, Ga., girl, who won a magazine beauty con test conducted by Eugene V. Brews ter, whose wife now is suing him for desertion and alimony, while Miss Palmer and her mother and little brothers and sisters share Brewster's' home in Morristown, N. J. ' Probably few women have had such opportunity to express their views on beauty as has Miss Palmer, who after winning the beauty com petition and becoming the pub lisher's sweetheart, became "beauty editor" of Brewster's magazine. Beauty. Beauty Held Great Power. Some of the most pungent and enlightening axioms uttered by Miss Palmer through the pages of Beauty and revealing a deep study of the art of winning men, follow: "With beauty, everything else comes easy. "Don't forget that beauty is a power. There is nothing more po tent. It is to a woman what capi tal is to a merchant. Its absence is a misfortune; its culture wise and . proper. "There is no doubt -in my minu that Eve ate the forbidden fruit because she had read in the beauty column of the Eder. Figleaf that apples were good for the com plexion. "Beauty makes charm and win someness, and with this trinity gen erally goes the winning of a good husband and home and, more im portant still, the keeping of them. "Pandora's box was no doubt filled with face powder, which has wrought more havoc and made more history than gunpowder. i Cultivation Is Duty. "It is every girl's duty to make hers;If- as beautiful i.s she can. "Discard the old-fashioned notion that you Bhould not use powder, rouge, lip salve, etc. It's the mod ern idea. Everybody's doing it. "Thou should assist nature when- ever possible by the use of cos metics and other remedies; remem bering that we live unnatural lives and therefore must adopt artificial means to preserve and. enhance the beauty that nature hath given. "A pretty mouth and velvety lips carry the mind to the land of ro mance and love. "The lips are love's -delicious weapons of attraction as well as her seat of approv .1. "The famous perfumes of Arabia are entrancing, but there is noth ing sweeter than the natural scent of a woman's hair. "If mother nature has not be stowed upon a woman the priceless gift of beauty, she must seek father art. IVatural Look desired. "Milady muBt not look made-up, but natural. "Think t.! something pleasant upon arising in the morning and again before retiring -t night. Espe cially at night. "There Is nothing more irritating to a woman of refinement than to see a man sit with his feet on a table or ' esk. Yet beauty special ists say that if more women af fected this habit there would be less tension of nerves and more real poise" among them. "A little red or pink will tend to reduce the blemish of a pimple or wart, "There is probably no woman in the world so beautiful but that she can b- made more beautiful. Smile Is Essential. "Wear a smile in the eyes and on the lips and you will 'make friends. "I'd hate to know my man was a painted and powdered man. I find it hard to reconcile myselt to the thought that my man used to paint and powder as I do. "It is not the province of man to be beautiful. Yet every man should strive to look his "est. "There are other things in this world besides beauty. Don't let it run away with you, my dear. "You who have mere physical beauty, beware! You may have ad miration, but you have not love."

Nathan Robinson, 23, stevedore, who has spent most of the last three years in Portland under the name of Joseph Smith, was arrested last night in a downtown lodging house by inspectors Tackaberry and Phillips and Lieutenant Thatcher on a charge of murder. ' He is accused of having slain Nelson Dunning, a longshoreman, during the San Fran cisco waterfront strike there of 1919. Besides the alias of Smith, Robin son has been known as Robinovitz and Joseph Kelly. Since October 2, 1919, the date of the murder, a price of $2000 has been on his head, offered by the waterfront employes' union and the shipowners' associa tion of the Pacific. The arrest was made on a circular dated and re ceived here in December, 1919. Last night Robinson called for a lawyer and intimated that he would fight extradition. He denied having caused Dunning's death, or having any knowledge of it. He told po lice that since being in Portland he had been arrested five times on various charges, the last time being on October 22 last, when he was photographed and fingerprinted as a vagrant. ROAD BIDS TO BE OPENED $500,000 Worth of Construction Work to Be Considered. SALEM, Or., Dec. 11. (Special.)

Pantages. j NOVELTY characterizes the show that opened at the Pantages theater yesterday. The headline honors are divided between the "Fashion Plate Minstrels" and Miss Maud Earl, the vocalist. The "Fashion Plates" consist of seven talented girls, good singers and dancers, including Mildred CreWe, Marjorie Wellman, Alice May Howard, Esther Geisinger, Sophie Bennett, Gertrude Katz and Helen Filling. Individually each member scored convincingly with the num bers they introduced. Their efforts weie generously applauded by the audience. Maud Earl in her act, "Songs a la Roue Roulette," with Wilber Knight at the piano, has a tasteful, attrac tive setting for her act. Ostensibly she chooses her repertoire for each performance from the roulette wheel. The said wheel, however, must have been on bad terms with her yesterday afternoon, for there was an uninteresting sameness to her offerings. She found the audi ence so decidedly chilly that she virtually had to ask for applause to pull an encore, which did not meet with any great success, either. Port land audiences are not unappracia tive, and evidently they can't be coaxed. The bill was opened by Alexander Brothers and Evelyn, billed as the "world's greatest ball bouncers." That is taking in considerable ter ritory. However, their work with the balls is clever, and one of the men adds considerable comedy to their offering. Ridiculous Recco, presenting "How to 'Become an Acrobat," lives up to his, billing, particularly so far as the ridiculous part is concerned. . lie experienced no difficulty in winning the audience with his clowning. Recco worked hard and the audi ence liked him. Britt Wood, the "Boob and His Harmonica," was a welcome visitor. He was accorded a reception as soon as the audience heard his harmonica off Stage. Wood has a fine line of comedy materia! which he knows M with the Wider and Thicker Tread What Does It Really Mean to say that Gates Super-Tread Tires have a wider and thicker tread? It means more rubber in the tread more rubber to wear more rubber to keep bruises away from the inside fabric and naturally this means more miles.

The show was closed by Wood's comedy mules, a lot of fat, well trained little rascals, who, contrary to tradition, do as tbey are told and didn't take a week to do it in. The act features the only crawling mule and a high-jumping mule. Addi tional comedy was injected into the act by the antics of the monkeys.
