The 25 European cities in which Miss Cain has sung successfully include Florence, Naples, Trieste, Torino and Modena, where she sang the role of Santuzza and the title role in "Sarrona" on the same night with equal success. Miss Cain's voice Is a "lirlco splnto" of :wide' range and remarkable sustaining power, and she has sung equally well the role of Santuzza and that of Micaela In "Carmen." The European papers have been unstinted In their praise of her-voice, commenting especially on Its beautiful quality and her dramatic abil ity. This being Miss Cain's first recital in Portland, It is creating considerable Interest. him. He has humanity and sanity where the average star has only vanity. . He exults In the sheer Jovtousness of living. He Is a little better than an ordi nary athlete, a fisherman, a motorist, a 'man "who loves horseback. ' and who can sail a boat closer to the wind than any yachtsman sharp in America. They tell In San Diego a -story of a party of gay young chaps who took Farnum a-boat-Ing last year, especially to have fun with him. But when the lee scuppers were under water, the mainsail dragging wet and the party demoralized with sudden fear. Farnum seised the tiller and brought them safe-to -land. -Give Farnum a. fly hook, a four-ounce MONDAV, SEPT. 2T . - " Cameo Kirby" rod and a week up In the wilds of Maine, and he wots little of "Cameo Kirby." His greatest delight is to wade down a mountain stream, one of those swiftly tossing, fighting streams that pounds its way down a steep canyon. There is where the gamey-trout lies, and there is where Farnum is happiest. Last year, at the end of his Chicago season. Farnum motored from the TVlndy City to New York. This year he rode from Denver to Cheyenne to participate in the Frontier day celebration tlyre, and was overjoyed when a duplicate car to his won the feature race of the affair. His Pacific Coast friends have had Far num ocean sailing, deep-sea fishing and long-distance and rapid-firing autolng every day since his arrival four weeks ago. Incidentally, he has been playing in the greatest hit of his career and the finest piece of the year Booth Tarklng ton and Harry Leon Wilson's story of old New Orleans In the early days ot Louisiana's statehood. "Cameo Klrby." THE THEATERS Continued From Pag 2. September 27 with the usual matinee it the Bungalow Theater, Dustin farnum presents a new play called ."Cameo Klr by." written by Booth Tarkington and Harrv Leon Wilson, a pair of celebrated novelists who made a very successful de-. but as collaborating dramatists when they turned out "The Man from Home, which ran for a year In New York and 36 weeks in Chicago. In the Farnum play, the authors have seized upon a fertile time and locality for the action of their story. The time is about 1832, the place New Orleans and the country surrounding that attractive city. TO.MGHT MARKS OAKS' CLOSE Famous Outdoor Resort Will Sus pend Until Xext Season. When John F. Cordray took over the management ft the Oaks, all who knew the experienced "showman," and that means about everybody In Oregon that attends amusement places, great tilings were expected. Taking charge as the season was drawing to a close, ho had rather a herculean task before him to make much of a showing, but his re markable energy and wide experience stood him well in hand, so that one big attraction after another was offered vis itors to the park. Liberatl's great band brought out the biggest crowd of the season; Madam Schell's trained Hons and a wedding In the cage; balloon ascensions; Desper ado In his sensational plunge from a high tower: the Tyrolean quartet; chil dren's festival; aquatic sports; eminent soloists with DonatelH's band, were among the principal new features pro vided and the large crowds attested the popularity of the youthful, veteran man ager. Already Mr. Cordray Is preparing for next season, and basing what may be expected on what he accomplished In his short season this year, the Oaks will be even more popular than ever before. " The park will be closed after tonight until next Spring, and it is a reasonable prediction to make that large numbers of visitors will be found on the grounds this afternoon and evening to- say good bye for the time being to the many at tractive feature- beauties of the park. .
