Frankel spoke Interesttngly to the class regarding the work of the National Speech Arts Association, of svhK'U aba is a member. Portland and the Western prosres siva spirit are mentioned in the pub lished form of a recent sermon given by Kabbt Leon Harrison, of St. Louis, reputed to be "one of the most noted rabbis In America." The subject of Kabbl Harrison's sermon was "A ireat America Thut Should Make Great Americans." and win delivered to the Temple Israel congregation recently. Kabbl Harrison reviews the things that came under his observation durinit his tour of the country during the Summer, tells of the wondrous scenery of the Pacific Coast and in li is appeal for park beautltlcation propounds to his congregation this: "f wonder if the City of Portland would have rejected the project of a central parkway, in i campaign against- u necessary ami splendid improvement, led by repre sentative men of wealth and promi nence in us community. To my mind, such a pitiful and niggardly attitude on the part of a great and enthusiastic city of tho Far West is utterly in roncclv.iMc. For their spirit is not one of reaction and le trif.iction. t In spirit of the Itip Van Winkle who never wakes up. Theirs is the ypirit of prorefs. or enthusiastic civic pride-; the apirli of men of viaion. who. fore teeing tho needs of a great future, pro vide for tho same, wisely and abun dantly." The Columbia Highway, world fa mous, also has evoked praise and ad miration from Kabbl Harrison and he has given the scenic road and Portland more put'llcliy by the following com ment: "There is another wonder city of the Great Weft, visited by ships, crowned by mountains and looking down upon a river that is as pictur esque aa the P.hlne and as majestic aa the Hudson. And along the Colum bia Itlver. that comes uown to Port land from the backbone of the conti nent. Ihe. farsighted State of Oregon la building the Columbia Highway, over tho bluffs and hills, opening up all the splendors of these far-Hung vistaa: a road, solid and superb, re calling tha palmy daya wnen i.ome linked together Its principalities ami so introduced civilization. And even so ihe Columbia, JSiver. in oil its hun dreds of miles of picturesque beauty. will be rrought nearer mis nitriiway of iiian'iiniental beauty." Linn County Fanner Dies. LEBANON', Or..

Combined reports of the cream eries at Monmouth. Dallas and Inde pendence show that the cream produc tion of Polk County has experienced a remarkable gain this Fall. The results of the Summer's storing of feed of all kinds have been evident in the exten sive milking of cows on the smaller farms and tho farmers have demon strated this Fall that not many acres are needed for dairying. The hay and mill feed was stored this Summer, while the green feed has been held out of doors as long as possible. Poik County's cream production in 1914 totalled i50.00. Rous estimates show that amount already has been ex ceeded for the present year. REALTY MAN JOKE VICTIM Silverware Taken From His Pockets Chagrins W. II. Mall.

With such conclusive evidence of guilt Mr. Mall could do nothing but smile in chagrin while his fellow "real estaters howled with laugnter. Tne joke had been framed by Mr. fcchalk. George P. Henry and several other leading comedians of the Realty Board, who chanced to sit alongside Mr. Mall at tha luncheon. Several Hundred Uusiiicfs Men, Hay Teachers and Office Women Are Among Those EnrolledTrade Languages Arc Taught. Approximately 3600 persons are at tending the night schools of Tortland. Every nationality, every creed, and persons of every degree of material prosperity are represented in t'ae com posite student body. Contrary to the popttlar belief tho night schools are not conducted for the benefit of the aliens alone, nor for the benefit of children who work dur ing the day and take advantage of the educational opportunities at night. The night schools also offer courses that have proved attractive to the col lege graduate, the business man. the dav teacher and the professional man. In the Lincoln High School build ing, where the languages, commercial course:. salesmanship. stenography, typewriting, business arithmetic. Eng lish literature and kindred subjects are taught, there are enrolled 1700 stu dents and there is an average attend ance of more than looo. Ilualneaa Men Are In Classes. The majority of those attending tho classes are not only past the academic age but they are representative of tho prosperous class of Portland citizen. Some, of the best known of Portland's uisiness and proiessionai men aie en rolled in the night, courses. In the Spanisli clans alone there ari enrolled between :;.' and (on men and women, many of them tea' hers from the Portland day schools. The French courses have also proved attractive, and there are courses for both elemen tary and advanced students in all the romance languages. tine of the features that has heen added to the courses this year at Lin coln Hign is a class in business meth ods pursued in South American repub- ics. It is conducted entirety in Span ish, Spanish newspapers are read and the instructor in charge of the course comes direct from one oi me poiriii American republics. Teachers Are Alao Student. Besides the large number of busi ness and professional men who arc at tending the night classes there are be tween 2.",0 and SOU day teachers in Portland schools enrolled. John ". Veatch, the principal of the night school at Lincoln, lias said that the average aito of the students in his school is -h. In the. school of trade for the girls, located In the old Lincoln High build ing. Fourteenth and Morrison streets, there are taught courses that were un heard of in educational circles five years ago. neside tne courses in ao mestic arts and science, that have been intensified in Portland schools during tne past few years, millinery and arts and crafts work are now popular courses. In these, clast-rooms business gills learn to sew. malte tneir own dress patterns, cook, learn how to buy t lie proper things to eat, mane their own hats and become capable and economic housewives. ;lrln l.earn Core of Home. One uf the instructors in domestic science in tho night schools lias said thut her classes were made up entirely of office girls. "It takes a big incentive for girls to attend my classes night after night when they work all day and might bo at home resting." said this teacher, "but it shows tire interest t hat they have in preparing themselves to be come efficient housewives." Mr. Alderman has said thai to elimi nate from the night schools any of tho courses offered at the girls' trade school would be to rob the community of an inestimable amount of good that is returned to that community through many channels. Perhaps the most spectacular of the night institutions is Sliattuck. where the hyphen is eliminated from every nationality. A census of the men anil women registered there, most of them attending to learn the fundamentals of the English language and the Amer ican institutions and customs, discloses the fact that there are ZH nationalities represented, distributed among the fol lowing peoples: Am-rlcan African ..
