'K SOCIETY women do not know
how to knit they are rapidly learn
ing and soon will be experts in this
field. They are daily taking- lessons
from clever needlewomen in making:
helmets, socks, mufflers, and various
articles of apparel . for the American
Bed Cross Society. Even the little
school girls, many of whom are re
markable for their cleverness in knit
ting: sweaters and mufflers, are devot
ing a part of their busy day to assist
ing "mother" or "grandmother" in her
work for the soldier lads.
Bandages and surgical dressings are
receiving a great deal of attention from
adept women who long have devoted
themselves to thia line of work. Women
also are busily studying telegraphy,
wireless, clerical and mechanical work
and even farming as well as planning
Informal functions as adieux to their
husbands, fathers, brothers and other
male relatives and friends who are on
their way to camps.
And the fact that the men of Port
land are going into training for the
next few months furnishes many per
fectly good reasons why social affairs
will partake of the atmosphere of ab
solute informality. Dinner :ind dance
partners will be exceptionally scarce
May, as the marriage month, vies
With the traditionally honored month
cf June, and evening weddings which
are considered not at all smart are
growing more and more simple in
Portland. The simplicity, however, is
a welcome note, relieving the strain
that the elaborate wedding suggests.
Kven wedding presents are much more
simple this year, the curtailing of such
fx
slated by Misses Helen Ladd, Mary L.
Feldenheimer, bara McCully, Albert
Eir. Antoinette Mears, Loretta Hardy,

extravagance no doubt being due to
the National economy necessary these
days.
-6ome persons are rather careless
bout noting the "R. S. V. P." on invi
tations to breakfast or reception, and
this has caused some hostesses to profit
by the experiences of others who have
spent the day following the wedding in
packing baskets of foods for the char
ity organizations or writing letters of
explanation to friends as to why the
refreshments" gave out, and they now
havei the invltntions plainly marked in
English, "Kindly Respond."
Portland will not have a long list of
war brides, roost of the engaged cou
ples preferring to postpone their wed
dings until the. affairs of the country
are more settled, and those who have
not announced their engagements, will,
in the majority of cases, refrain from
doing so until some time later.
Perhaps the largest benefit of the
aeason was that given on Thursday
night in the Heillg Theater by the
Honor Guard Girls, which not only was
a huge success, but served to make
known how much cleverness and artis
try abounds in the younger set of Port
land, as well as the splendid manage
rial ability of the women who carried
the big affair through with such a pro
fessional assurance. As customary, the
benefit was surrounded with many din
ner and supper parties, line and box
parties.
The biggest event of the entire week
socially and financially, as well as
from a standpoint of entertainment,
was the vaudeville performance given
by the National Girls' Honor Guard
at the Hellig Theater on Thursday
night. The boxes were filled with a
representative assemblage of prominent
men and women, some In gala attire.

others in simple street garb. Home
made candy was sold by a bevy of
pretty and alluring gills, headed by
Miss Elizabeth Jones. Miss Mamie
Helen Flynn, general chairman of the
affairs, and Miss Jean Morrison worked
hard and untiringly for the benefit, and
they are largely responsible for making
it the stupendous success it was.
The committees were headed by
prominent women, and they chose a
corps of able assistants to sell the
tickets, obtain advertising for their
programmes, decorate the theater, and
secure boxs and sell the candy. The
net proceeds totaled $1800. The pro
gramme was .a varied and interesting
one and consisted of several numbers
by well-known Portland men and
women, some of whom never have per
formed before: and several acts from
the Orpheuin and. Pantages. . Dr. K. A.
J. Mackenzie, in a short address, ex
pressed the gratitude of the Guard girls
for all the assistance they received.
Patrons for the evening were: Dr.
K. A. J. Mackenzie. Dr. and Mrs. A. E.

Keeping Business Going
for Our Country's Sake!
This is the patriotic slogan recently published
in all the Eastern papers by the world-famous
merchant, John Wanamaker. He appeals for
sanity in American business during the early
days of the war. He urges that we KEEP
MONEY IN CIRCULATION! KEEP EM
PLOYMENT FOR EVERYBODY! KEEP
WAGES GOOD! KEEP ON MAKING MONEY,
THAT WE MAY HAVE MONEY FOR WAR SACRIFICES!
He says that the worst thing that could happen to the world
these days would be business depression in our United States.
This is indeed true, and for that reason we are coming to you
at this time with this appeal: KEEP UP THE PROSPERITY OF
THE NORTHWEST. -There are many ways in which this can
be done, but by far the greatest of these is the spending of our
money in the section in which it is made.
Now we, as merchants of Portland, urge you to spend your money this year
for the things you need as you would if conditions were different. It is
imperative! -The business of this great Pacific Northwest can grow
and remain healthful only when the people of this section buy and
keep money in circulation the money put in circulation here will
make money here.
Let us, therefore, work for each other's interests we will keep our prices
as low as possible with a legitimate profit we urge you to do your part.
Let us increase our employes' salaries to meet the present conditions. Let
us all advocate the KEEPING UP OF PROSPERITY OP THE NORTH
WEST FOR. EACH OTHER'S SAKES.
