membership of the organization last

over the increase, especially consider
ing tho fact that the Portland Lodge
is less than five years old. A member

New Home Kxpected This Tear.
The lodge looks forward hopefully
this year to the building of the new
home at Fourth and Taylor streets. The
site was purchased early in the year
for $78,000 and it is expected to go
ahead with the work this year.
According to present plans, the struc
ture will bo about six stories and will
cost in tho neighborhood of $120,000.
Tho building will be fitted up with a
fine lodge room and entertainment hall
and in addition with a gymnasium,
swimming pool, bowling alley and the
various other adjuncts of a modern
clubhouse.
The swimming pool is to be made the
largest in the Northwest and it is
planned to fit the lodge room up so
that it will be second to none in the
United States. The members of the
lodge plan to spare no pains or money
in making their new home one which
will be a credit to the city and to the
organization.
Entertainments Bcinn rianned.
The new dictator intends to appoint
an entertainment cqmmittee and a pub
licity committee. Both these will be
new departures and will mean that
some of the energy of the lodge will be
diverted along those new channels.
With the new entertainment committee
In charge, the lodge plans to give oc
casional entertainments and thus be
come, to a. certain extent, a factor in
Ihe social life of the city. The work
"'of the publicity committee will be pri
marily to acquaint the public with the
crganization and what it is doing.
The Moose Lodge had a splendid rep
resentation in the Rose Festival parade
last year and the organization assisted
materially in various ways in the suc
cess of tho festival. This year the
members expect again to take a promi
nent part in the festival and, if pos
sible, will surpass their showing of
last year.
The Supremo Lodge meets- at San
JMego in July and it is expected that
many of the delegates and officers will
return to the East by way of Portland.
The Portland Lodge is preparing to
give them a royal reception when they
arrive in this city. It is believed that
tho supereme dictator will be in Port
land following the meeting of the Su
preme Lodge, and. if he is. some special
means of entertaining him while here
will be arranged.

'ECONOMY LOST ART TODAY'
Senator McCumber Speaks Before
Kugene Commercial Club.
EUGENE. Or., April 17. (Special.)
a'h American Nation, in ita tremen'
dous haste, is in danger of abandoning
old constitutional principles essential
to the existence of free government,
was the warning given by Senator Por
ter J. McCumber, of North Dakota, here
last night at a banquet attended by
ISO members of the Eugene Commer
cial Club.
Even American Presidents, he said,
have fallen into the belief that tbj
rule and wisdom of the present major
ity is superioV to that of the consti
tutions and principles of centuries. He
referred to the independence of the ju
diciary, the executive and the legisla
tive branches of the Government.
The safety of the majority lies,
ho said, in adherence to the Constitu
tion. "Economy is a lost art today,"
said the speaker.
Following the address the Senator
was made an honorary member of the
Commercial Club. , .

Dr. Calvin S. White Refuses
to Shoot "Mad" Dog.
Poor tittle Terrier Kound Tethered
by Heavy Rope in Boiling; Sua
When Guardian of Health Answer
Emergency Call.
(CpHERE is a mad, dog out here
X which is terrorizing the coun
try," was the information which came
over the telephone Friday to Dr. Cal
vin S. White in a woman's voice. The
voice further informed the physician
that the police had been notified an
hour previously but that no member of
the force had made his appearance. Fur
ther remarks relative to the efficiency
of the police bureau followed.
After Dr. White had learned that the
mad dog was on College street, between
Eleventh and Twelfth, he procured a
revolver and, borrowing an automobile
from a friend, drove in search of the
rabid canine. After some inquiry he
found the lair of tho animal, and, with
his gatling gun ready, approached
where it was hidden behind a fence.
The shot, however, which was to send
the bloodthirsty animal into eternity
was never fired. Dr. AVhite found a
dog of the terrier breed lying tethered
by a huge rope about as thick as a
man's thumb. The dog was about a
foot long and was far from being the
huge, infuriated creature which his in
formant had led the guardian of the
public health of expect.
"The dog was panting as a result
of the hot sun in which he was tied
and this probably had led to the belief
that be was mad," said Dr. White.

Acid Stomachs

"Acid" stomachB are dangerous be
cause acid Irritates and inflames the
delicate lining of the stomach, thus
hindering and preventing the proper
action of the stomach and leading to
probably nine-tenths of the cases of
stomach trouble from which people suf
fer. Ordinary medicines and medicinal
treatments are useless in mich cases,
for they leave the source of the trouble,
the acid in the stomach, as dangerous
as ever. The acid must be neutralized,
and its formation prevented, and the
best thing for this purpose is a tea
spoonful of bisurated magnesia, a sini
ple antacid, taken in a little warm or
cold water after eating, which not only
neutralizes the acid, but also prevents
the fermentation from which acidity is
developed. Foods which ordinarily
cause distress may be eaten with
impunity if the meal Is followed with a
little bisurated magnesia, which can be
obtained from any druggist, and should
always be .kept handy, Adv.
