PATRIOTISM IS FORECAST
Owners of vacant property in Port
land will receive no mercy at the bands
of the Municipal Court in case they
are placed under arrest for permitting
weeds and grass to grow upon 'such
property. This was announced by Judge
Stevenson yesterday, who declared that
any such violators of the law would
be sentenced to the limit.
With the present need for food prod
ucts in this country, I consider it a
crime to permit vacant property to be
peeled Opposition to Continuation

Pledges of Loyalty and
Funds Presented.
Portland will hold the Rose Festival
this year as usual.
This was determined last nlgrht at a
poecial meeting' of the Portland Rose
festival Auxiliary at the Chamber of
Commerce. J. E. Werlein is chairman
and Mosessohn secretary of this
organization, which represents 525 or
ganizations in Multnomah County.
President Larimore, of the Rose Fes
tival Association, pledged the manage
ment to expend the money entrusted
to it to give Portland the best possible
Festival and that no debts or unpaid
jianuities will be incurred.
There was but one dissenting vote
last night when the motion that the
Festival be held was put. This was
trom Mrs. M. wyvllle, who represented
the Portland Woman's Research Club.
She said at a recent meeting of that
organization, attended by 120 women, a
resolution opposing a Festival this
year was adopted unanimously.
NoIy Element Opposed.
Expected opposition to the Festival
aid not develop at last night" s meet
ing. Every speaker, save Mrs. Wy-
vine, favored a Rose Festival on pa
triotic lines, with some of the more
noisy element of former fetes elimi
nated. It was the general agreement
that the coming Festival shall be a
striking object lesson in patriotism.
Charles F. Berg moved that expendi
tures be limited to 115.000 this year.
The plan was opposed and did not
carry. A pledge not to entail any un
paid bills was then made by President !
Larimore.
A feature of last night's meeting.
wnlch was a special one called to con
sider a petition lately presented by
Portland business men asking that the
1917 Festival be not held, was the
reading of a resolution adopted by the
Chamber of Commerce favoring the
Festival and pledging $1000 to it.
Patriotic Spirit Forecast.?
' Joseph F. Morris, of Vancouver, B.
C, representing the War Dance and
Carnival, to be given there this year.
spoke briefly, advising that the Festl'
val be not abandoned, as he said it
Is known widely and has become a
great attraction. lie said Portland can
do more good by giving the Festival
and a more patriotic spirit will be
created thereby than by abandoning it.
President Larimore explained the
circumstances the directors face and
referred to the objections that have
been made to the 1917 Festival. He
said that when the war began he tele
graphed President Wilson and asked
his advice In the matter. The Presi
dent replied that he thought it would
be a good thing to carry out the ar
rangements and that be would press a
button at the White House to start
the Festival If that action was de
sired.
"Why pick on us?" asked Mr. Lari
more. "There is no talk of calling off
the National Education Association
convention here next July, nor is the
suggestion to stop baseball, dancing
parties, theaters, teas and any other
of the usual diversions ever heard."
Recreation In War Recalled.
He referred to the fact that "Verdun
held its annual sweet pea festival last
year while the place was being shelled
and that the soldiers on the western
front are playing football between
drives.
Resolutions favoring the ' Festival
adopted by the Oregon State Hotel
Association were read, as were similar
expressions from the Salesmen's Club
and the East Side Business Men's Club.
A. F. Flegel said frequent objections
to good or new things have been heard
in Portland and that he believed the
Festival the highest type of patriotism
for Portland, either last year, this year
or next year.
C. C. Chapman suggested that op
ponents to the Festival did not under
stand clearly the situation and that
when they do they will fall in lin'e
with a revival of the old Portland
spirit.
Obligations Total 2537.
Dr. Alan Welch Smith, chairman of
the finance committee, said obllga
tions amounting to $2537 have been in
curred and that the Festival is com
matted to that expenditure in any
event.
During the meeting Al Kader Temple,
Order of the Mystic Shrine, which met
last night, telephoned in a subscrip
tion of $100 to the Festival fund. The
ElKs added assurances of their sup
port.
J. E. Currey said he is advised by
letters from England that the National
Rose Society is going ahead there with
plans for its annual rose show, even
though the country is in the midst of
war.
Li M. Lepper, Gus Moser, Miss Viola
Ortschild, J. E. Dundore and others
spoke for the Festival, and when
C. Bratton made the motion that the
Festival be indorsed unanimously, it
was carried with but one opposing
voice.

Private "Dick" Word, formerly of
Washington High School, and Private
Parker, formerly captain of the Junior

mistake he dropped out of the ranks.
When the drill narrowed down to 12
men it became exciting and lasted
sme time before it was reduced to
Word and Parker, and the honors were
shared by them when it was found im
possible to shake either in executing,
the commands.
Company K enjoyed an "applie pie"
