The two little gins, wro have ex pressed a desire to carry the message of the Portland rose across the conti nent, are Grace and Orajane Cordson, daughters of Mr. and Mrs. C. H. Cord eon, of the . Wellesley Court Apart ments. Since they will spend the Summer at Savannah with their grandparents, the little girls will not be here to take part in the children's parade opening iay of the Festival. June 7, and both wanted to have a part in the show, so they will tell of the beauties of the annual fiesta and exploit the slogan, For You a Rose In Portland Grows," to fellow passengers on the trip to Savannah, and to friends in the Georgia city. Grace, 10 years of age, will pilot her sister, Orajane, 9, on the long- trip. The Rose Festival publicity department, hearing of the journey the two little girls will make alone, called on Mrs. Cordson and asked her permission to let the children wear Rose Festival sport caps and arm bands. On both the bands and caps appear the slogan and Festival dates and the girls have promised to talk Rose Festi val and Portland roses to everyone they meet on the journey. They will be met at Chicago by friends of Mr. Cordson, who will see that they are transferred to the proper train to con tinue their journey to Savannah. The girls have traveled alone often and have no fears in starting out on the journey to the South. CAMPUS DAY ARRANGED ItEED STCDKNTS WILL, CLE AX IP COLLEGE GROUNDS APRIL 5. Vorklnjf Crew and -'lleadera Have Tasks Assigned Co-eds Will II rip, and Also Serve SleaL Every 6tudent of Reed College will lay aside his or her college work on April 5 and devote the day to hard manual labor, for it is & tradition of the college that every year one day should be set aside for the beautifica tion of the caxnpus and its environs. On Campus day every student will lave a particular task to do under the Fupervision of a committee chairman. The work has been so divided that the whole Caxnpus day may be benefited, in appearance, and usefulness. Crystal Springs Lake, on the lower dge of the campus, will be cleared of derelict logs and all of its submerged stumps will be charted and marked by buoys so that canoes will no longer have the unwelcome surprise of seeing an ugly black snag poke its way through the bottom of his craft, ac companied by a. gush of water. The canoe bonse at the lake will also be repaired and a permanent well graded path from the campus will be built. Archibald. Clark will be chair man of the lake committee and will be assisted by a company of men and Bristol will have charge of e. committee oaf huskies who will drag the remaining loss from the swimming pool, repair the rustic bridge and mend the dam. With the aid of a block and tackle they hope to manage some of the great logs which proved too much for last year's Campus-day workers. Under the guidance of Dean Webster, the paths of the campus will be re paired. Calvin Hlrsh will superintend the renovating of the tennis courts and their surroundings. Alvin Shagren and a crew of young athletes will put the baseball diamond into condition and clean up th-e athletic field. Some committees will have such esthetic ftuties as the planting of flowers, the beautif ication of the lawn and the preparation of the viands for a big bancruet for the hungry workers at the noon hour. These delicate du ties will necessarily be intrusted to the co-eds. All the students will be expected to dress for the occasion, and working ciotnes win be the only costume tol erated from chapel in the morning until the day ends with the special entertain ment, which is being planned by Bess Haverly and a secret band of enter tainers. Campus day has always improved the looks of the campus and its surround ings Immensely, and Professor H. B. Hastings has estimated that the work d5ne on these occasions has been worth more than J250 to the college. refused permission to land because of a lack of the proper papers.

K. BANGS TO LECTURE HUMORIST W1L.1. SPEAK AT LIN" COLS HIGH SCHOOL TUESDAY. "We, Vm & Co." Will Be Subject of Entertainment to Be Given Under Education Body' Auspice.. John Kendriclc Bangs will deliver his lecture, "We, Us & Co.," Tuesday evening-. March 28, at Lincoln High School auditorium at 8 o'clock. The ap pearance of the noted humorist in Portland on this occasion is under the auspices of the Portland Education As sociation and the lecture is for the benefit of the Vista House memorial fund. x "We, Us & Co.," is a new lecture con cocted by Mr. Bangs and is said to ex cel in entertainment his now famous "Salubrities I Have Met." Mr. Bangs is a Yankee and a graduate of Colum bia College in 1883. His father was an eminent member of the New York Bar Association and his grandfather was at one time president of Wesleyan College, in Middletown. Conn. The last decade has brought unusual distinction to him on the lecture platform and in the literary field. He has lectured be fore more than 500 audiences and in every state in the Union. He has held responsible editorial positions, among which were editor of Life, humor editor of Harpers, editor of Literature and editor of the Metropolitan Maga zine.

His lectures are intimate in sights into their lives and he chronicles in a humorous way the idiosyncrasies of these men and women he has met in his literary pursuits.

A part of it will purchase a curtain for the stage of the .auditorium. Kive dollars will be given the. yifita, House fund, and .the rest will be expended for library books. Wednesday saw an interesting ex hibit of replies to the letters sent by the pupils of the school. A large part of a wall was covered with letters, and on a chart board hung the pictures of Oregon scenery, given to little Miss Marie Uoodwla by. .the P.-w- & V for her excellent letter to the Boston Transcript that replied with an edi torial on Portland. The display in cluded letters from most of the men who are prominent political figures, from Cabinet officers. Governors and many others. In the display was an encouraging letter from Governor J, Kindel, of Colo rado, directed to Master Jason McCune. The letter reads: "Dear Friend Jason: I was very much pleased to receive your nice letter, and in answer to you kind invitation or ex hortation, "Why not spend your vaca tion in Oregon this Summer?" will say that I appreciate every word and argument that you have advanced, and I am sorely tempted, if at all possible, to pay you a visit next June. Having visited Portland years ago, I know that the roses in Portland are more fragrant and beautiful than anywhere I have ever been. I am in receipt of the information about the Columbia Highway being dedicated. Having re cently purchased a car, I will prepare to lay out a route to reach your famous city when she is in dress parade. Bar ring accidents, I shall anticipate a glorious trip and look forward with pleasure to seeing you and nry Buckeye friends, your parents. Thanking you for your kind reminder and invitation, I am yours hopefully. "GOV. J. KINDEL." Buffalo Merchant Accepts. Another letter that is an acceptance came to. Shirley Baron from M. Wile, a merchant of Buffalo, I. Y. He will come to Portland between June 7 and 9. A letter to little Miss Mary Corbett comes from Herbert W. Congdon, a Columbia University man, of the class of '97, who styles himself a "New York Bachelor," and admires Western spirit. He says in part: "We have a lot of things, but we have not the fine public spirit and the willingness to do some thing new that you have. You have taken from us some of the best of our best people and have made them into Oregonians. They are hard to spare, and we have to replace them with for eigners. "Foreigners are all right, but It takes a long time to make Americans of them, and sometimes I fear there will be so many that, instead of our mak ing them over, they will make us over. Though I cannot come to visit Portland yet, I will do It some day." Teachers Get Replies. Perhaps the children of the Couch School would not have been as aggres sive in their letter campaign had not the crdent support of their instructors been given them. Even the teachers of that school Joined in the spirited con test and set the example. Every one of the teachers wrote letters. On the display board hung a letter received by one of the teachers from a friend who had passed the good news of the "City of Roses" on to a Japanese friend,, who responded in his own lan guage. The Chicago Tribune devoted several hundred words to a story of Portland's letter-writing contest, and pictures of scenes taken . during Letter-Writing week were printed. A great many of the Couch School pupils wrote to people in the East, telling of the merits of Portland as a city of homes and of the splendid farming facilities of Oregon. To these came replies of fathers of families who as homeseekers promised to consider Portland when they made their new homes. Visitors at the school Wednes day read many of the letters.
