LESS THAN $20,000 Expenditures Not All Totalled, but Are Sure to Be Half Usual Amount Spent. ecS Car ji During June VISITORS NUMBER 20,000 ROS Us Sim President E. E. Larlmore Praises ITnited Efforts of Members of , Board of Governors, Who Made Showing Possible. Straight through the calendar, a cen ter shot of highest caliber, drove those three days of dreamy Oregon sunshine which belonged to the late and well beloved Rose Festival. It was kismet of the kindest sort, and the weather man is forgiven much. But kismet had little to do with the pleasing alacrity with which the triple day programme was borne out, trium phantly and with real festival eclat. And kismet had even less to do with the book balance, which shows that the 11th annual Rose Festival success was pained at an expenditure of about one half the sum ordinarily paid for the fair fiesta. They haven't totaled the last column of towering figures multitudes of 'em for every conceivable item but the figure that foots the line will be less than $20,000 says President B. E. Larl more, with a bland wave of his frazzled cigar. That's what the Rose Festival cost, he pursues, and he is prepared to challenge all previous records of economy without loss of effect, and to predict that the mark will stand for future emulation. - ' Low Mark la Established. - "The expenditures of the 11th Rose Festival form the lowest mark" ever reached by any festival board of gov ernors," said President Larlmore. "And the big fiesta was put on -in face of the greatest handicaps that have con fronted any board in the past 11 years. A state of war exists, the board met with some dissuasive discouragement, the roses declined to bloom it was the very deuce and alL "But someone sent us three days of wonderful weather, out popped the roses and the visitors from distant places. And that state of war offered opportunity for something that lay close to the hearts of everyone the expression of clean-strain American patriotism. And they expressed it: you bet, they expressed it! Well, then?" President Larlmore went on the trail of the visiting strangers who came to Portland to play a part in the pageant. He circled the hotels and chatted with the clerks. They told him that their taverns were filled to overflowing and that the festival business was better than at previous fiestas. So the presi dent of the Rose Festival scratched his head in computation and summed up his information and placed the muster of out-of-town visitors at not less than 20.000. Crowds Prove Kete In Wanted. "The crowds along the line of parade and at Festival Center those happy, good-humored thousands certainly evidenced the fact that Portland and the Northwest do want a rose show, and must not be deprived of the mid Hummer floral fiesta. It would have been a crime not to have had one." The highest praise is heaped without stint by President Larlmore upon his fellow members of the board of gov ernors, who, he declares, were re sponsible by their unison of effort toward a common ideal for the un qualified success of the festival. Officials of the recent Rose Festival were: E. E. Larlmore, president; "Will lam Adams, secretary; Mrs. G. J. Krankel, vice-president and chairman of queen committee; Er. Alan Welch Smith, chairman finance committee; William McMurray, chairman Festival Center and transportation; H. W. Plerong, chairman amusements, music and publicity; J. O. Wilson, chairman patriotic pageant; L. M. Lepper, chair man children's parade and grandstands; A. C. McMicken, chairman decorations and electrical displays; A. M. Grilley, chairman sports, athletics and enter tainment; Gus C. Moser, chairman floral parade and property; Mrs. G. W. McMath, chairman special features. C. H. SOMMER IS PROMOTED Resident Manager, Armour & Co., Superintendent of Xorthwest. C IT. Sommer. for almost fiv years resident manager for Armour & Co., )ia-s received his appointment as super intendent of the Northwest houses of the company and soon will leave for Spokane, where his headquarters will be located. The promotion comes as recognition of Mr. Sommers' successful handling- of Armour & Co.'s affairs in the local field and is gratifying to his many friends in this city. His new position will occupy much of his time in traveling- to the various branch houses In his district. J. "W. Furlong- succeeds to the resident managership in Port land. The plant of E. H. Stanton & Co., at Spokane, one of the largest on the Pacific Coast, was recently purchased by Armour & Co. ENTRY MENTION INCORRECT Sons of Revolution Unintentionally Slighted In Parade Reference. The Sons of the American Revolution were unintentionally slighted in one reference to the patriotic parade of Thursday when it was stated that the Spirt of '76" was a Portland Ad Club entry. The entry was made by the torifi of the American Revolution in stead and carried out one of the sev iral ideas in the pageant It represented. The entry was one of the much-talked-of features of the parade and was so well carried out that proper credit should be bestowed. T0NG MAN GOES ON TRIAL Dan J.

In Thursda.ys unequaled patrlotlo pageant there were many entries calculated to summon cheers. None re ceived more spontaneous appreciation than did the float of the Portland Transportation Club a living statue In replica of the Goddess of Liberty. Misa Alvina Larson, of the superintendent's office, O.-W. R. & N Company posed as 'Liberty." "She's real!" cried the astonished and delighted throngs when her happy smile disclosed the fact. The float was awarded first prize as the most unique representation among the American historical entries. . N. E. A. TO HAVE Important Business Will Be In terspersed With Functions. SESSION OPENS JULY 7 Work Is Expected to Be Most Influ ential in History of Association. Governor Witliycombe Is Among Speakers. With the Rose Festival stowed away in lavender for another year, Portland turns toward the approaching meeting of the National Education Association of the United States, for which she has been chosen hostess and which will convene in this city on July 7, contin uing to July 17. The assembling of this representa tive body of men and women from all America is, at this moment of National stress, fraught with a significance that has not been lost upon its members. It is declared that, far from abandoning the meeting, it will prove to be the most influential in the history of the association. The latest Issue of the N. E. A. Bulle tin, official mouthpiece of the organ ization, urges members to consult ticket agents without delay and obtain infor mation on the rates to Portland. While the regular Summer excursion tickets are on sale after June 15. the special tickets offered by the various lines should be considered, as low rates have been made on all. The Bulletin directs attention to the many scenic advan tages of the trip through the North west to Portland. Many social functions have been planned for the entertainment of the guests while in Portland and are now officially listed. At the general ses sions meetings, which open Monday afternoon, July 9, at 2 o'clock. Gov ernor Withycombe, Superintendent of Schools Alderman and President Fos ter, of Reed College, will deliver ad dresses of welcome. In urging attendance the Bulletin says: "The Portland meeting will af ford an opportunity for a large number of our teachers to visit the great North west section for the first time. This is the great scenic playground of Amer ica. On a recent trip to Portland the secretary did not have time to traverse the entire Columbia River Highway, but the portion which he did see only creases his determination to complete the trip this Summer."

It quickly enriches the blood, strengthens the nerves and puts most astonishing; youthful power and vigor into the veins of both men and women. It often increases the strength and endurance of delicate, nervous, run-down folks 100 per cent in two weeks' time. Opinions of Dr. Schuyler C. Jaques, Visiting Surgeon of St. Elizabeth's Hospital, New York ; Dr. A. J. Newman, late Police Surgeon of the City of Chicago and former House Surgeon Jefferson Park Hospital, Chicago, and other physicians who have tested Nuxated Iron in 'their own private practice. In a. very Interesting and tnntnictive discourse on the grreat value of plenty of iron in the blood. Dr. Howard James, late of the Manhattan State Hospital of New York and formerly Assistant Physician. Brooklyn State Hospital, said: "A patient of mine remarked to me (after having been on a six weeks' course of Nuxated Iron). "'Say. Doctor, that there staff mafftc." "Previous to using; Nuxated Iron. I had been prescribing the various mineral salts of iron for years, only to meet com plaints of discolored teeth, disturbed digestion, tied up, hardened secretions. etc, when I came across Nuxated Iron, an elegant, ingenious preparation con taining organic iron, which has no destructive action on the teeth no corrosive effect on the stomach, and which is readily assimilated into the blood and quickly makes its presence felt by increased vigor, snap and slaying power. "Iron Is absolutely neces sary to enable your blood to change food into living tissue. Without it. no mat ter how much or what you eat your food merely passes through you without doing you any good. You don't get the strength out of it. and as a consequence you be come weak, pale and sickly looking. Just like a plant trying to grow In a soil deficient in iron. "As I have said a hundred times over, organic Iron is the greatest of all strength builders. If people would only take Nuxated Iron wlfen they feel weak or run down, instead of dosing them selves with habit-forming drugs, stim ulants and alcoholic beverages. I am convinced that In this way they could ward off disease, preventing it becom ing organic in thousands of cases and thereby the lives of thousands might aovah whn now rile everv vear from pneumonia, grippe, kidney, liver, heart tronhle and other dangerous maladies, The real and true cause which started their diseases was nothing more or less than a weakened condition brought on by a lack of iron in the blood. inoUsanaS OI pruuio euncr iruui Iron deficiency and do not know It "If you are not strong or well, you owe it to yourself to make the fol- lowing lest: ssee now ions you can work or how far you can walk with out becoming tired. Next take two five-grain tablets of Nuxated Iron three times per day after meals for two weeks. Then test your strength again and see how much you have gained. IVora my own experience with Nuxated iron I leet it is sucn a vaiu able remedy that it should be kept In every hospital and prescribed by every Dhvslclan in this country." Dr. K. Sauer, a Boston physician, who has studied both in this country and great Kuropean medical Institu tions, was asked what he thought of Dr. James' remarks. In reply, he ald: mittees now engaged tn the collection of funds for the relief of Jewish war sutferers are earnestly requested to suspend all their activities from June IS to June 24, 1917, and to postpone all meetings that may have been called by them to take place between those dates. Every energy should be directed by our several committees. In common with the entire body of American citizenship, to lend generous and ungrudging support to this sacred cause.' " Old Fishing- Licenses Burned. More than a ton of fishing licenses and stubs were burned Saturday at the crematory by the State Game Warden. The licenses were Issued prior to May 1, on whlrh date the price was raised Evry Hospital and 0 0 s ODVL wsry Manhattan State Hospital of New York and formerly Assistant Physician Brooklyn State Hospital.

WARNS AtiAINST VSE OF- ORDIXARY ME TALLIC IRON, so commonly taken by most people. "I fully agree with Dr. James. Peo- . need more Iron. There ran he no p neea more lron- -mere can do no etrong. vigorous Iron men and .beau- tiful. healthy women without Iron. Not long ago a man came to me who was nearly half a century old and asked me to give him a preliminary exami nation for life insurance. I was aston ished to find him with the blood pres sure of a boy of twenty, and as full of vigor, vim and vitality as a young man; In fact, a young man he really was notwithstanding his age. The se- cret, he said, was taking iron Nux ated. Iron had filled him with renewed life. At 30, he was in bad health; at 46 he was careworn and nearly all in now at 60, after taking Nuxated Iron, a miracle of vitality and his face beaming; with, toe buoyancy of youth." iNw i . ' . I v we have from from $1 to $1.50. thus necessitating the calling In of all licenses issued be fore the raise. The Warden's office carefully checked up the returned li censes from all over the state and when this was completed and the re issues made the old licenses were tak en to the city garbage crematory and burned. Vancouver Man Is Wed. T A COM A, Wash., June 16. (Special.) Roper W. Marse, Vancouver, Wash., and Frances K. K1sn?s, of Sumner. Wash., were granted a marriage license here today. rnvsician 1 BJ Dr. A. J. Xewman, late Police Surgeon of the City of Chicago and former House Strgeon, Jefferson Park Hospital. Chicago, in comment ing on the value of Nuxated Iron, said: "Thi4 remedy has proven through my own test of It to excel any preparation I have ever used for creating red blood, building up the nerves, strengthening the muscles and correcting di gestive disorders. The manufacturers are to be congratulated In having given to the public a long-felt want, a true tonic supplying Iron in an easily digested and assimilated form. A tru health builder in every sense of the word. Dr. Schuyler C. Jaques, Visiting Surgeon of St. Elizabeth's Hospital, New York, was also wnat ne tnougnt or ituxatea iron. in reply Dr. Jaques said: "I have never before given out any medical Information or advice for publication, an I ordinarily do not believo in It. But In the case of Nuxated Iron I feel I would be remiss In my duty not 10 ' mention it. I have taken It. myself and given it to my fatients with most surpris ng and satisfactory results. And those who wish quickly to increase their strength, power and endurance will find it a most remarkabln and wonderfully effective remedy." The next to be consulted was Dr. Kerdinand King, a. New York Physician and Medical Author, who said: "I heartily concur in all that Dr. James has said, only in some respects I would g further. Dr. James forgot to mention how foods los their iron value by improper methods of cookery. In th most common foods of. America, the starches, sugars, table syrups, candies, polished rice, whlto bread, soda crackers, biscuits, mac aroni, spaghetti, tapioca, sago, farinn. determinated cornmeal, no longer in iron to be found. Refining processes have removed the Iron of Mother Kartli from these impoverished foods, and silly methods of home cookery, hv throwing down the waste pipe thn water in which our vegetables aro cooked, are responsible for another grave iron loss. Therefore, if you wish to preserve your youthful vim and vigor to a ripe old age, you must sup ply the Iron deficiency In your food bv using some form of organic Iron Nux ated Iron just as you would use salt when your food has not enough salt." NOTE Nuxated Iron which la Dr,HhMi nd recommended above bv Dhnlrlan, in such a great variety of cases is not a mt,nt medicine cor secret remedy, but one which to well known to druggists and whose iron con stituents are widely prescribed by eminent physicians everywhere. Unlike the older In organic Iron products. It Is eaully assimilated, does not Injure the teeth, make tbem black nor upset the stomach: on the contrary It in a most potent remedy In nearly all forms of Indirestion. as well mm tor nervous, rundown conditions. The msnufarturers have such ffrea-t confidence In Nuxated Iron that tbey offer to forfeit flOO.Ou to any charitable In stitution if they cannot take any man or woman under on who lacks Iron and Increase their strength loo per cent or over In four weeks' time, provided they havo no serious organic trouble.
