PAID SERVICE IS ISSUE Primary Purpose of Youthful Or ganisation Is to Dispense Free Entertainment at Affairs of School Xatnre. Whlla th controversy has not nro gressed sufficiently to call for official consideration, ther Is conflict between ins stusicisns- Union and the Hia-h School Band, composed of boys from tna naamngton and Lincoln Illith. Schoola. Tha pending trouble arises from a desire on the part of tha llluh Softool Band to furnish its services for remuneration In connection with dances and otber entertainments of a public nature. To thla the organised musi cians object, unlesa tha members of the school band become members of th union. This condition haa caused keen dlaan- pointment among tha students of both high. schools, who have taken pride in their band, and have rejoloed aa It haa improved and proa per ad. For . Borne time ona of tha moat popular and ap preciated organlsatlona In th high schools haa been th band. Band Stirs Enthusiasm. Photograph Sharp at Work.

"Football games were mad Immensely popular last season by th lively nthualasra that the band caused. "Of course the band was a purely honorary Institution and freely contrib uted Ita services out of school patriot lam and devotion to the school cause. All expenses Incurred by the band were generously defrayed by Its members. After playing together thus success fully for a long period, some of th more finished musicians organised an orchestra of about ten pieces. After continued practice this orchestra at tained a degree of perfection equal to that of many of th professional or chestras of the city, and te demand for ita presence at mgn ccnooi atrairs be came strong. 'Later there began to come calls for good muste from other sources, and a good patronage was built up. Natur ally a fee waa collected In cases where th music wss supplied to outsiders. and It was found that the fees were sufficient to recompense the youthful musicians for their gratultoua services at High School affairs. Boys Will Oppose. A short time ago It was discovered by th High School boys that while they remained outside of the union they would not b permitted to play in the halls In the city or furnish music to any dance taking place at any of the usual halls here. This movement was en tirely within the power of the union. The plan of Joining the union cannot as yet be carried out by the boys, since the major function of the band could not then be performed: that is. to fur nish school spirit and Jubilation at school celebrations and games. This Is farbldden by the union rules, by which, J all services In a professional line must be paid for. which Is not In accordance with the generous principles of th school musicians. The situation will be met by the boys with stubborn re sistance, and the insurrection promises to ne serious. "while the subject has not been called officially to the attention of the Muslclnna Mutual Association.", .said John R. Tomlinson. representing; the musicians, last night, "we feel and con tend that before the High School Band enters Into competition for services -of a public character, its members should belong to the union and enjoy the benefits that go with such a member ship. Members of the Peninsula' and Third Regiment bands have recognized the value of our organization and have made application -to join."

ROSE SHOW PLANS FIXED PRESIDENT ' OF . SOCIETY SEES MOST BRILLIANT EVENT, Special-Attention -This Year to Re Paid to' Competition for Bene- " '-fit of Women Only.' PORTLAND, Or, May 20. (To tha Ed itor.) The twenty-second : annual rose show of the Portland Rosa. Society, which la to be held in the Armory, June and 7. promises to bo the most oru llant event of its kind ever seen here, owlna- to tha fact that more Portlanders than at any time In tna past nav do come enthusiastic about raising roses for exhibition-purposes, while our gen erous and public-spirited people have ffered a greater numoer oi iropnies, nd these finer than aver before, for competition. It la to ba hoped that ail who have rosea arrowing in their gar dens will enter them for these prizes. as they will be' awarded impartially to those showing the best Diooms. In my opinion, people are commonly too timid about showing their roses, for I have seen many a rose well wortny oi orlxe left growing In tne garaena about the city aurtng our rose snow. PeoDle also refrain from exhibiting be cause thev do not know bow to enter their roses, but they should not stay away for that reason, for we shall have committee at the Armory tnia year to, show everyone how to enter roses properly, and tne secretsry, jar. n, a. Lamson. . will furnish the necessary blanks to all-who desire them. Everybody should Join our society. all being welcome, and take a prao tlcal part-in promoting rose eultui that most delightful occupation, which haa added so greatly to the fame of our city. I wtsh to oall special atten tion to the competition for women only, for floral table decorating, aa we have circular tablea to be decorated and wo handsome trophies. AJ1 entries for this must be mad two days before the show. ' A few words about the care of roses may not ba out of place here. While I woud not presume to offer advice to people who have given the subject of rose growing and rose showing much attention, to novices I might say, that to bring roses to perfection, even In our idesl climate, needs some care and work. . The cultivation of roses for this season should now be so far ad vanced that we have to deal chiefly with disbudding and the enemies of the rose. As to the former, we-should not hesitate to disbud freely, leaving but one bud on a stem, or not more than two, the second being left so low down on the stem that the main flower may be cut without interfering with It. The finger, or a small pair of tweezers may be used for pinching off the buds. Too many buds should not be re moved at the first operation, one bud being left by the side of the main bud until the wounds caused by the first disbudding have healed; otherwise it is found that malformation of the prin olple bud v may take place. Not all roses should be disbudded alike, for Instance: Bent Cant, Duke of Edinburgh, Mabel Morrison. Charles Lefebvre. and others with globular buds should not be disbudded so freely as Madame Mel- anie Soupert, His Majesty, Lady Ash- town, Dorothy Page Roberts, etc, 'which have pointed flowers, opening quickly. To prevent wildew, which Is one of the most formidable enemies of the rose, dissolve one ounce of potassium sulphide in five gallons of rain water. adding the whltea of two eggs, and use as a spray say once every week 'or two as required. This solution is also destructive to the green aphis, which is another pest. The green, leaf-rolling caterpillar (emphytus) is very active, at this sea son and should be carefully; .looked for daily. Its presence Is known when we see that some" of the foliage has been mutilated by the hungry grub, and careful search will find the offender en sconced within a curled-up leaf or he- 1 tween two adjoining leaves held togeth er by the caterpillar's web. It Is also found on or in the buds, to which It is most destructive, and must be re moved by hand. Constant vigilance Is the price of success. CORNELIA E. LAWTON. President Rose Society. GILLIAM COUNTY VICTOR City of Condon Cannot Force Payment of Tax. - - SALEM, Or., May 20. (Special.)

R. & N, In the city limits of Condon, and as to whether the city can force the county to levy and pay such tax, the Attorney-General holds that the county is not compelled to pay the tax to the city, nor can the county compel the road to pay 10 mills city tax. Corn Troubles Ended in 48 Hours A Blue-jay plaster is applied in a jiffy, and the pain of the corn ends at once. You simply forget it. The bit of B & B wax gently loosens the corn. In two days yon lift it out. No pain, no soreness, no inconvenience. Compare that with old-time ways. Can yon wonder that Bine-jay is now being used on five mjUion corns a year? Can yon wonder that Bine-jay now outsells by fifty times over any other treatment known? People who once try Bine-jay simply laugh at corn. . See the Picture r c A D wtkicl laomam Ua oorm.
