17 TIIE SUNDAY OREGOXIAX, PORTLxlXD, XOYEMBER 17, 1912. 6 BOOSTERS TOT OUR San Diego Plans Great Time for Royal Rosarians. VISITORS TO PLANT ROSES Holiday Excursion of Local "Live "Wires" to .California Will Be VUUzfd to AdTertise Rose Festival and Portland. Word has been received here by the Royal Rosarians that San Diego Is pre paring to hold "open house" when the special tranload of Frrtalnd boosters reach Southern California during the holiday season. The officers of the Panama-California Exposition Commis sion, who have charge of the big fair which will be helt in that city in 1915, have extended a most cordial lnvita. tlon to the Portlanders and are plan' nlng a unique celebration in honor of the proposed invasion 01 me bouin. San Dieito will devote the entire day of January 2 to entertainment and hospitality for the Rosarians who will be the strong feature at the Tourna ment of Roses at Pasadena on New Tear's day. Pasadena and San Diego will work in harmony in making the trip of the Portland "live wires"- a notable affair and as soon as the Rosarians have played their part in the Tournament of Roses at the former city they will pro- ceed immediately to San Diego, where the keys of the city will be turned over to them. Rosarlus to Lead Cfremomr. The Rosarians will take the leading part in planting a large bed of roses, the bushes being taken wiiu the party from Portland and a special ceremonial will be arranged In honor of this event which had its origin so far as mid winter rose planting is concerned in Portland, some years ago, in connec tion with .the Rose Festival. Besides the Portland guests, the San Dlevans will have representatives of all foreign nations take part in the pro gramme and a separate block will be . set aside in one of the public parks or squares, where the rose trees will be set out and dedicated with both patriotic and religious services. The interest which San Diego is taking in the matter of entertainlg the Rosarians Is due to a desire on the part of the Callfornlans to cement more closely the social and business relations of the Pacific Southwest and the Pacific Northwest. The leading floriculturists of the Bear state will be Invited to be the city's guests and will share honors with the Rose Cltyltes in this function, which is entirely novel for that part of the country. City officials and the leading spirits in the financial, commercial and indus trial circles of San Diego, together with the Panama-California exposition commission, will work together In pre paring the official programme for the entertainment of .the Portland Rosar ians. They are in correspondence with Crown Prince Bristol, who has already elected a special committee to handle the details of the trip, consisting of W. J. Hofmann, Hy Eilera and Ralph W. Hoyt, and a number. of sub-committees will be appointed by chairman Hofmann to take care of additional details. Visitors to Boost Portland. " While at San Diego, the Rosarians will issue a formal and official Invita tion to all Southwestern California to attend the Rose Festival here the week of June 9-14 and a special message will be delivered to the railroads and .hotels of that city and surrounding tourist resorts, to encourage the East ern visitors to California this season to arrange their tickets so they will come to Portland and the Northwest early in the Summer, take In the Rose Festival, and have a chance to enjoy side trips for sight-seeing purposes while In this territory. Crown Prince Bristol believes that by taking advantage of the opportuni ties of visiting San Diego, Los Angeles, Pasadena, and other tourist centers In that part of California, tens of thou .. sands of Eastern pleasure-seekers can be brought to Portland, and from the way In which all California towns on the proposed Itinerary are showering In vitations upon the Rosarians, It will be the most notable excursion ever or ganised In this city, and one that is destined to do more real good from a business and commercial standpoint than any other that ever left the city. and it is probable that he will make a trip to that country soon -for the pur pose of carrying this plan into execu tion. In connection with these foreign agencies the Meier & Frank Company also maintains a foreign credit serv ice for its Portland patrons. Any patron of the store traveling in Eu rope can, through the agency of these branch offices, use their credit in the forclgs markets, have their purchases sent to them 6;rt at their homes and pay for them here in Portland at their convenience. The European agents also give particular attention to the wants and comforts of Portland and Oregon persons visiting the old world and often assist the traveler In ar ranging tours and sight-seeing trips. Mr.. Strauss, who has charge of all these agencies, is known as a special ist and an' expert in European mer chandising. He has a reputation not only of knowing where to find every important article of trade In the old world, but also of knowing what the women of this country want and need, as he has made a study of this" work for 25 years. "1 regret exceedingly that my pres ent visit Is of such short duration," he said yesterday. "I wish that I would have an oportunlty of meeting personally the friends and patrons of the Meier & Frank stores, who. In traveling abroad, already have taken advantage of the opportunities our service offers them. "To conduct such a system of for eign buying agencies involves a great deal of expense, but the patrons of Meier & Frank get the benefit as they get the goods direct from the manu-1 facturers, thus saving the middlemen's profits." . : MAZAMAS MAKE PLANS AXNUAli OtJTIXG WTLIi BE TO MOUXT ADAMS.

Consldlne, theatrical magnate, and several other mutual friends were telling reminiscences in the corridor of the Portland Hotel, one said: "Mr. Pinkerton, how old Is John Consldlne? You ought to know, as you were friends back in Chicago years ago." Pinkerton looked at Consldlne. shook his head and said: "No, but I can give you some idea by telling a tale of my childhood days I am over 70, and when a small boy lived In the outskirts of Chicago, which was then only a country town In com parison with what it is today, and with other boys we would jump upon farm ers' wagons, coming into town with produce, and take fruit and vegetables. We did it so often that my father was notified, and he made the worst threat that I ever heard at least I thought so at the time. He said if I was ever reported again for the offense he would turn me over to the policeman on the beat, and that policeman was John Con sldlne, a man of middle age and a terror to us kids." . All turned their eyes on Consldlne in wonderment at bis preservation, . and getting up from his chair said: "I'm going" to bed, for when yon get as old as I am you need more sleep than kids do." j Van Meter Funeral Today.
