Trip to Break Past Records. " Great as was the trip in 1912 not only as an advertisement of Oregon, but as a social event of most delightful charac ter for those who participated In it, the reports of the various committees on the Royal Rosarians excursion indi cate that the coming trip will be one of even greater magnitude, more im portance of detail and more elaborate in its carrying out than any excursion that has gone out of Oregon before it. " One of the first important functions Of the trip will be the dedication of the Oregon State Building for the Panama Pacific International Exposition and the other is to represent Portland as a delegation to carry through the pro pram me of Portland and Oregon Day Kt the California Exposition at San Diego. To arrange for the carrying out of these two important programmes the Rosarians at the monthly meeting Monday, by resolution appointed Lewis W. Buckley as chairman of the Dedi cation Ceremony committee. ' . In conjunction with Mr. Buckley will work D. O. Lively, George L. Hutchin, C C. Craig and M. J. Shelby, and other Oregonlans now in San Francis co, and members of the Oregon Society, together with Hollia E. Cooley,- chief of the department of ceremonies of the Ka.n Francisco Exposition, the Rosar ians will fittingly, and in fact elabor ately and beautifully dedicate the Ore gon State Building. Dedication Date Changed. -The original dates and. itinerary as arranged for by Hy Eilers, chairman at Rosarians, brought the dedication ceremonies to take place on the morn- ftiggestion of Mr. Buckley and Mr. Ifyland. these dedication dates were changed from December 31 to Decem ber .u, and win taae place at 3:30 i. SI. In a tentative manner the cere monies will consist of invocation, the reading of messages and letters through the representatives of Governor West nd Mayor Albee, the formal turning over of plans and keys of the building by the architect to O. A. Clark, presi dent of the Oregon State Commission, who. In turn, will tender its use as one of the official family of the Exposition to C C. Moore, the president. The Royal Rosarian Band will give a concert among the other features of the celebration, the singing of the Na tional anthem, and initiation ceremony of the Royal Rosarians will no doubt Drove of great Interest to thousands of Ban Franciscans, and will help to make the programme the equal of that of any state building dedication. It la probable that a buffet luncheon will te given to the men and women from Portland and some of the State Com missioners. Creed to Be Distributed.

Governor West has issued a proclamation asking for the observance of the day through out the state and Mayor Albee has asked all citizens in Portland to ob serve the day here. At 10 A. Jul, every citizen is expected ' to pause and re solve hereafter to favor goods made In Oregon when the price and quality is equal to goods made elsewhere.

Later the Muts are going to give an Immense Christmas tree for the poor little children, and all these toys that are gathered in next Thursday, as well as hundreds of others, will go on this tree and be given out to deserving; little kiddies who have no other means of knowing the- joys and delights of Christmas time. But that's another story later on. Just now the Toyland matinee. That big arcade of the Baker, should look like Santa Claus' home next Thursday. "You do not have to stop at one," says Milton Seaman, who is arrang ing the matinee. "All the toys you can bring will be put to good use. Never mind if they have been used a bit. Bring them to the big contribu tion and see the popular Baker Play ers in the best comedy Portland has seen in many moons, 'Ready Jloney,' which recently was played by the com pany and which made a tremendous hit. It is worth the price of many toys. Suppose you have no toys and do not - know how to buy them. In such case we recommend that you bring a piece of money, every cent of which will go towards buying things for the Christmas tree.
