THE SUNDAY OKEGOX1AN. PORTLAND, NOVEMBER 1, - IPOS. 2 The Store Noted for Best Goods at Lowest Prices ... .. .fF, mm tilml ' A CVVUC-HTEFi- WHO WILL MAKfi PRACTICALLY every ona in society contributed to the success of "Tag Day," which yesterday netted a handsome sum for the Babies' Horn. Dignified matrons sold tags on street cor ners or acted as chaperons for the girls who did most of the soliciting. Such gen eral co-operation In behalf of a local charity has no parallel In the city's his tory. It was generally felt that the char ity is one of the most worthy for which an appeal could be made, and the re sponse was all that those who directed the successful campaign could have de sired. The man who was not decorated with one or more tags was the rare ex ception, and instances are on record where tlO or $1S worth of the little "you're It" signs were sold to a single purchaser. The universal sympathy felt for the lit tle charges -of the Home touched the heart of the most calloused, and the re markable success of the unique campaign proves that the Idea was a most happy one on the part of those who instituted It. The attractive Miss Genevieve Parke, who made her debut last WIntPr. writes from Manila that her parents. Major and Mrs. Parke, are stationed at Ctebu with a battalion of the Fourteenth Infantry. The weather. It seems, has been oppres sively hot. but It has, however, not inter fered with entertaining, and the post hops have attracted attention from the different nearby garrisons. Among others at Obu are Lieutenant and Mrs. Gregg and Major and Mrs. Hasbrook. In these columns last Sunday, refer ence was made to the fact that two prominent members of the younger set had recently composed a popular song. They are Miss Genevieve Thompson, the daughter of Mrs. D. P. Thompson, and Leland Smith, a son of Mr. and Mrs. Walter V. Smith. Miss Thompson has written the words and Mr. Smith, who is a talented pianist, the music. Miss Thompson is particularly gifted with her pen and has during the past few years contributed many clever magazine stories to Eastern publishers. The new piece has been christened "Swastika Sue" and is attractive ly gotten up with a flaming red cover and a great white swastika emblem In white, the center of which is the head of an Indian maiden posed for by Miss Buford, the handsome Cuhan, who ap peared at the Orpheum a fortnight ago In conjunction with Barrlngton Carter in a sketch called "The Act Beautiful." While here Mr. Smith called the atten tion of the vaudevilllans to the new song In which they at once became In terested and signed a contract to give the initial performance In Spokane, singing the song In appropriate Indian costume while the scenic effects are to be on an elaborate scale. Mr. and Mrs. Maxwell Blake (Miss Ruth Maxwell) have returned to Scot land from a month's visit In London. While Mr. Blake Is engaged with his consular duties at Dunfermline, Scot lsnd, Mrs. Blake will leave tomorrow tor a month's motor tour with friends which will Include France, Portgual and Spain. They will start from Lis bon, sailing on December 1 for Lon don, where Mrs. Blake will Join her husband and where they will spend the Christmas holidays. While In Lon don Mrs. Blake met Mr. and Mrs. George Goode and Miss Frances Lewis Just prior to their sailing for America, and she also had luncheon in Edin burgh. Scotland, with Miss Haxel and Miss Leslie Weldler. Many pleasant things have been done In New York for Miss Marion Jackson, by the friends of her cousin Professor Murray Butter, who Is president of Co lumbia College. Miss Jackson has also been entertained by her brother. Lieu tenant Knees Jackson, at Fort Joy, Governor's Island, the same post where Captain and Mrs. William H. Jordan. Jr.. are stationed. The latter waa for merly Miss May Beall. A pretty luncheon'on Monday had as Its hostess Mrs. George S. Whltslde, who entertained for her mother-in-law, Mrs. Whltslde. of Boston, who is spend ing a few weeks out West. The guests Included Mrs. W. S. I -add, Mrs. W. J. Bums. Mrs. C. F. Beebe. Miss Sally Lewis. Mrs. Helen Ladd Corbett and Mrs. Holt C. Wilson. Mrs. J. W. Cook has sent out cards for a reception on Wednesdsy at her new Portland Heights residence, at which time Mtsa Cornelia Cook will make her formal debut. Mlsa Cook 1 -r -mr -w rii JTKrKiV .Tvta&QrrKrf. " nkivriv A nAUCHTCE OF1 MR A)TO MRV C.f.ARAd graduated last year from Rogers Hall at Lowell, Mass., where her sister. Cully, is now attending. Miss Cornelia has been much admired for her piquant beauty, having a wealth of brown fluffy hair and expressive brown eyes. While In Washington, D. C, during the Christ mas holidays she visited Senator and Mrs. Levi Ankeny, at which time she was made much of by the members of the younger set. Added to her long list of miniatures and paintings, Lillle V. O Ryan will show at her exhibition this month, a painting of Mrs. George W. Mc Bride, wife of ex-Senator McBride, whose handsome brunette type of beauty la shown to advantage In a lace gown worn with a broad ermine stole. An other strikingly effective piece of work Is a pastel drawing of Miss Maud How ell, who Is painted as Bizet's heroine In a heavily embroidered Carmeneaque style of shawl with brilliant scarlet popples arranged at the nape of her neck. Miss Howell is of the attractive Irish type of beauty with blue eyes and Jet black hair and naturally lends her self picturesquely to the pose. Mr. and Mrs. Chauncey Wlnslow, after a year's residence abroad, will sail for America this, coming week, ar riving home early In December. Some elaborate entertainment was re cently done in Washington, D. C, New Tork, Massachusetts and in Philadel phia for the International Congress on Tuberculosis which met in Washington, for which there was 6000 delegates, which represented S3 foreign countries. The two Oregon delegates were Dr. E. A. Pierce, of Portland, and Dr. H. E. Beers, of Wasco. Or., who are enthu slastto over the trip. While at the capi tal they were given an elaborate re ception at the White House by Pres ident and Mrs. Roosevelt, a smoker at the New Wlllard Hotel, a reception at the Corcoran Art Gallery, and scores of banquets, luncheons and dtnnera of lesser magnitude. At these formal functions the Americana naturally ap peared In evening clothes while the foreigners in most Instances wore eve ning clothes with accompaniment of a brilliant sash indicative of honors con ferred and around their throats neck laces with bejewelled pendants. Partic ularly handsome were the decorations worn by the famous Dr. Unterberger, who la the physician to the Czar, and who at the afternoon sessions of the conference appeared in the uniform of a Russian cavalry officer with spurred boots and saber and uniform laden down with medals. The convention convened for a few days at Philadelphia where much en tertaining was done in their honor at the Bellevue-Stratford Hotel. Great In terest was manifested by the visitors at a reception given by Mr. and Mrs. P. A. B. Widener at the Wldener Me morial Home for Crippled Children be tween the ages of 4 and 10 years. The Wldeners who are among the wealthi est families of the Quaker City, have donated several handsome buildings where the unfortunate children are given every advantage known to mod ern sclenoe, where money Is unstinted and where they are surrounded by the moat healthful environment until they become of age. After that period If they be still incapacitated they are re moved to a comfortable adjoining cot tage where they are enabled in a de gree to support themselves. - The final meeting of the conference was an In teresting one, representatives from for- elgn countries making farewell speeches. While the closing address was being made by Secretary Cortel you, President Roosevelt, unannounced and unexpected, walked into the as semblage in his characteristic "stren uoslty" and delivered an inspiring speech, disappearing again with his bodyguard amidst the cheers of the as sembled convention.
