Imperial and Benson hotel grilles are planning to have sumptuous dinners Thanksgiving night, lasting from 5 until 8 o'clock! Orchestras will be aug mented for tho occasion -and in several instances special amusement features may be furnished for- the evening. Though the public schools of the city will be closed on Thanksgiving and the day following, . special exercises com memorative of the holiday will be held in classrooms Wednesday. These ob servances In the main will be purely classroom affairs, the Individual teach ers determining upon their nature. Thanksgiving ' poems and stories will be memorized , by the students or read in the classes. Art classes will paint and draw pictures with Thanksgiving themes, and in every way possible the significance of the day will be brought home to the young people. In several of the larger schools It Is probable that exercises will, be held In the. audito riums. Charity to Be Featured. But this literary observance of the day is not the only' method by" which the spirit of giving and giving thanks is being instilled into the minds of the young of Portland. For weeks past the students have planned baskets to be distributed to charitable organizations, which, more than anything else; will bring cheer to those whose Thanksgiv ing otherwise would not be distinguished from other bleak days of Winter. It is the school children of this city that contribute mainly toward the Thanks giving dinners of thousands, in the jails and homes, of the unfortunate. An elaborate Thanksgiving dinner will be given at the Commercial Club Thursday night. It will be an Informal affair, and there will be no toasts or speeches, but the repast will be the best the club can serve. It Is promised that the dinner will overshadow any previously given In the club. It will begin at 7 o'clock. At the Press Club Thanksgiving night a high jinks will be held,- with dancing, musics -tand singing. Vaude ville acts tttftft several of the . local theaters will" adf". to the enjoyment, and many novel features will be staged. The affair will begin at S o'clock. Amy" Workers Remembered. Special Thanksgiving services will be held Thursday evening in Salva tion Army Hall, at 24 3 Ash street. In charge of the Army Corps No. 1. At the same hour in the hall at 207 Salmon street Corps No. 4 will hold a musi cale in honor of the occasion. - The employes of the social and in dustrial departments of the Salvation Army will be tendered a dinner at 12 o'clock at the headquarters at 21 Union avenue. The young women of the Rescue Home, at East Fifteenth and Hancock etrets, will be given a turkey dinner at noon by the Army. No special re lief work is being planned by the officers of tho Salvation Army for Thanksgiving, but many baskets of good things will be sent out. For those of the patients well enough to enjoy the luxuries, the Good Samari tan and St. Vincent Hospitals will torve turkey dinners at noon. Turkey and cranberry sauce, creamed potatoes, and all the trimmings down to mince pie will be on the menu for those whose constitutions are fairly robust. The Good Samaritan Hospital has Is sued a Thanksgiving appeal asking for donations to aid in caring for the poor er patients at the hospital. A liberal response is expected to this. Donations of public school children enjoy a Thanksgiving dinner this year. This home, which is located at East Twenty-ninth and Irving streets, will serve a big turkey dinner at 2 o'clock. There are 86 children to be fed, but it is expected confidently that public generosity will make ample provision for them. The Home for the Aged will hold its usual Thanksgiving dinner, entertain ing 115 old folk. Donations have not yet begun to come In, but it is expected that the public appeal of the home will bring scores of replies before the day arrives. The dinner will be served at 12 o'clock and, If possible, will consist of all the good things appropriate to the occasion. Prisoners at the City Jail will be treated to a Thanksgiving dinner, if plans now being made are consum mated. It is probable that, similar to last year, a local restaurant will pro vide the major part of the dinner. Many baskets of food are always sent the prisoners at Thanksgiving time and there is little doubt that the City Jail Inmates will enjoy a big meal. Some "Play Possum." In addition to the "transients" there are 20 prisoners in the City Jail. This number doubtless will be swelled great ly by many who will seek a short sen tence to make them eligible for the big "feed." At the County Jail Sheriff Word la planning to feed 17C prisoners, Turkey and cranberry sauce, celery, etc., to bumpkin pie, will be on the menu and will be served in the corridors. Sheriff Word is furnishing the dinner. Eclipsing other sporting events of the day in importance will be the foot ball game between the University of Oregon and Multnomah Amateur Ath letic Club, scheduled for 2:30 on the Multnomah Club field. From the In terest already displayed in. the match It is thought that several thousand peo ple will see the game. In the morning at 10 o'clock the Port land Hunt Club will hold a paper chase. An elaborate breakfast at the club house at Garden Home win precede the chase, in which 15 or more riders will be entered. A special Thanksgiving matinee of Eleanor Gates' play, "The Poor Little Kich GirL" will be given at the Heilig next Thursday, and a special matinee will also be held at the Baker Theater, where Is being given "Merely Mary Ann." Vaudeville houses and moving picture shows of the city are planning attractive programmes for the after noon and evening and expect to attract large crowds.

Better highways for the whole state will be talked and co-operation between the various districts of Oregon will be promoted in every way possible. A feature of the convention will be a visit to the Columbia Highway, ar rangements having been made to take the visitors over the completed por tions of the roadway and demonstrate to them what can be done In the making of splendid driveways. An illustrated lecture on the subject. "Highway Construction," will be de livered . by Samuel C. Lancaster, con sulting engineer for Multnomah Conn, ty's.rpad department. .

SECRETARY REPUBLICAN COUNTY COMMITTEE AND . CLERK WHO WERE MARRIED RECENTLY. '-' 1 , i. A V - ). A . VI y-. k ' Politics has its Joys and its sorro ws, its tragedies and its comedies, but it remained for the recent campaign to develop Its romance. The principals in this interesting event were Elmer L. Amidon,' secretary of the Republican County Central Committee, and Miss Anne Ruth Gilbert, chief clerk in the county campaign headquarters. Although the two had been friends for a few months before the campaign opened, their association dur ing the exciting times preceding the recent election led to a romance. They were married last Wednesday. - Mrs. Amidon -is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. D. J.- Gilbert, of Newberg. She is a native of Indiana, but has lived in Oregon nearly all her life. Mr. Amidon has been a 'resident of Portland for about four years. He came here from Tacoma, where he had been active In politics. Since coming to this city he has engaged successfully in newspaper work, real estate, insurance and other activities, and more recently again In politics. Mr. and Mrs. Amidon will live at 877 Vancouver avenue. UNIQUE FESTIVAL PLANNED BY CLUB Tuesday Is Set Forth as Night of Revelry by Progressiva Business Men.

George Klelne. the man who controls "Julius Caesar" in America, has the highest ideals of any photo producer In the world. He has risked more than Jl, 000. 000 to prove that the American public would accept the higher things if presented properly.

The group ings and massings of great bodies of Roman soldiery and common people are all done i with masterly art and skill. Everything in cast, acting, costume and direction was almost perfect. The scale upon which all was done was lavish. Every detail has received care ful and conscientious attention. There Is no padding, and out of all nothing can be eliminated. "Julius Caesar" can safely be added to that brilliant list of photo achieve ments which strengthen the hold which motion pictures have In popular esteem.

Common garden sage brewed into a heavy tea, with sulphur and alcohol added, will turn gray, streaked and faded hair beautifully dark and luxuri ant; remove every bit of dandruff, stop scalp itching and falling hair. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sulphur recipe at home, though, is troublesome. An easier way is to get the ready-to-use tonic, costing about 50 cents a large bottle. at drugstores. known an "Wyetn's Sage and Sulphur Compound," thus avoiding a lot of muss. While wispy, gray, faded hair Is not sinful, we all desire to retain our youthful appearance and attractive ness. By darkening your hair with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur, no one can tell, because it does it so naturally, so evenly. You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning all gray hairs have disappeared. After another application or two your hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy. soft and luxuriant and you appear years younger. Adv. COMB SAG
