servances In the main will be purely
classroom affairs, the Individual teach
ers determining upon their nature.

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

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

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.

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.

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

Kich GirL" will be given at the Heilig

will also be held at the Baker Theater,

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.

iasts among the newsboys' fraternity,
who, through the courtesy of Dorr E.
Keasey, have signed up as follows:
Dave Schneiderman vs. Abe Cantor;

strictly a "stag" affair. Admission Is
free, but the admission to the various
CHIEF
side shows la 6 cents. The proceeds of

SCHOOLS TO SEE FILMS
Invitation to "Julius Caesar" at Na
tional Is Accpted."
Manager "Wlnstock has extended, and
the school authorities of Portland, as
well as the faculty of Heed College,
have accepted an Invitation to see a
private exhibition of "Julius Caesar" at
the National Theater. Saturday, No
vember 28, at 10:15 A. M. The same
company which put forth "Quo Vadls"
and "The Last Days of Pompeii" made
"Julius Caesar." which production ' is
in six full acts and is pronounced by
critics of the industry to be the great
est and most complete photo-spectacle
ever undertaken.
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. He never spares
expense andln "Julius Caesar" he has
used in one scene alone 20,000 supers..
iaa proaucuon wnicn goes on at me
National Is based on. Shakespeare's
great play, and every character in the
historic tragedy Is assumed by an actor
of reputation. Antonio Novell!, who
Played the lead in "Quo Vadls," plays
Caesar, while "Marc Antony. Brutus
and Cassius are all well portrayed.
Tie scenes are laid and played in I
noma on the spot where Brutus and the
rest of the conspirators ended the life
of the great Roman tribune. 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.

An Appeal for Old Linens
Have you any old sheets, "old handkerchiefs, old un

you anything old about the house in white linen?
No matter how old, how torn or how darned.
Every Scrap Is a Godsend
to Wounded Soldiers
Telephone to the store; our wagons will call and collect
bundles from your home. They will be all assembled in
our receiving rooms.
A Committee From the
Daughters of the American
Revolution
will inspect and pass on all materials contributed to this
appeal. These women are familiar with the needs and
requirements of the tibspitals in the war zone. Volunteers
will cut and roll bandages and prepare these linens for
shipment.
It's an urgent call. Every moment counts. Can you
realize what it means to these wounded soldiers to have
their wounds undressed for lack of material?
