GOOD WORK IS BEING DONE
AVill Warren. Ir'ormcr Secretary to
JMa.tor A I bee, Writes of What Is
liclujj Accomplished last.
Oregon's welcome committee in New
Tork. is doing a great work among the
returning soldiers and sailors, but is
b ndicapped by lack of funds with
which to provide adequately for the
men. according to 'Will Warren, former
t-ccretary to Mayor Albee. now In r.cw
Tork on Y. M. C. A. work. In a letter
iccetved by Portland friends Mr. War
rcn tells of tlie work of the committee
members among the troops as follows
"Heally, the folks in Oregon have no
idea of the truly great work O. C.
Inciter and his committee are doing
for the Oregon boys. Why. just last
Jilght bunch after bunch of them came
in here and were tickled to death just
to Bit in and chat with us.
Hoy Are Greeted.
"Peggy Curtis was here until late
last night, after working nearly all
clay, and is this morning down on the
tlocks checking on incoming small or
individual units of-men, among whom
may be some from Oregon. Believe me.
it's great work they're doing, and I
should like to see Oregon people realize
how greatly the boys coming into this
town need a welcome. One can scarcely
realize it until seeing the situation
first hand.
"It is the unanimous opinion here
that New York is the place to do this
work and that home-city parades, nice
ms they are for the home folks, are dis
tasteful to the men and should be cur
tailed; but in any event when in New
York they should be shown every pos
sible attention.
"They think it's the finest thing go
ing, and the pity is that the committee
is so cramped financially that it cannot
have ample space for its work. They
sire trying to work this out, but funds
have been slow in coming and they
have been greatly embarrassed, al
though not complaining.
Mayor to Be Shown d.
"Mayor Baker is due most any dy
now, Leiter tells me, and he is to be
impressed with the needs of the com
inittee at first hand. He sure will see
womething worth while if he sticks
around this headquarters any, for the
boys eat this stuff up.
"Peggy Curtis and Maude Gilbert
Judge Burke and others from our state
are welcoming the boys in fine style
and all on their own time.
"Right now there are nearly 500
Oregon boys on provost guard duty
here. -Surely the committee needs
nice headquarters for lounging, reading
and coffee and sandwich room, writing,
etc., and then it would be fixed up fine
for its task, which will continue in
definitely.
"L. R. Alderman expects to sail
"Wednesday and Dr. Brougher goes at
the same time."

M'
ISS ANNA CASE, giften soprano
of the Metropolitan, Is making
her first western tour, and will
appear in a recital at the Ileilig March
19, direction Steers & Coman.
On last Monday Miss Case made her
first bow to a San Francisco audience
and scored a great triumph. In speak
ing of the recital the critic of the Call
says:
'Beautiful Anna Case played upon
every emotion . the . human voice is
capable of expressing last night in her
concert at the Savoy theater, and
proved herself mistress of all.
"Greeted on her appearance with an
enthusiasm that few could provoke in
less than an evening's exquisite enter
tainment. Miss Case enthroned herself
Into the hearts of her hearers 'long be
fore her recital was half over.
"Combined with a charming person
ality and the ability to transform her
self into a veritable human image full
of soulful expression of every motif
she interprets, Anna Case is the pos
sessor of a. voice that marks her out
as an exceptional- singer.- Of pure,
bell-like clarity, wonderful flexibility
ana unusual range, even for a soprano
her tones proclaim her a born vocal
ist. Every expression has the "human1
impress and yet her artistry is so great
as to be beyond criticism. It is the
perfection of art that conceals art and
yet presents all that art can encom
pass."

pended on the Olympic highway. Of
this amount $100,000 is proposed for
completing the stretch of road between
Lake Quinault and the Clearwater. The
building of the Clearwater road would
open up a very rich agricultural valley.
Work of Mercy Organization Is Ex
pected to Expand Under Lat
est Plan of Operation.
The American "Red Cross shop and
salvage bureau have consolidated and
will now be operated, beginning tomor
row morning, as the Red Cross shop, at
"70-72 Third street, the salvage depart
nient being a branch of the ahop to be
conducted in the basement under the
ehop.
The salvage bureau has been one of
the most profitable Red Cross activ
ties. Following the success of Mrs. W.
Ij. Wood in opening the Red Cross shop
on Fifth street, Fhe decided to expand
and opened the Red Cross salvage bu
reau in the old Portland Trust com
pany building at Third and Oak streets
Later the salvage bureau moved to
70-72 Second street, and a few months
later back to its former location.
Because activities of the shop and
-salvage bureau in many respects over
lap, the Red Cross has decided to amal
gamate the activities, Charles R. Rose,
of the Ruth Trust company, being
named director, while Mrs. G. T. Trom
inald will be active manager of the
fchop and bureau. Mrs. Trommald is
volunteer worker, as are all the mem
bers of the shop staff.
The Red Cross shop hopes to main
tain the very efficient collecting or
gaitization of the salvage bureau, the
workers of which extend to every part
of the city. Branch stations for both
the shop and salvage bureau are at all
the fire stations in the city.
The Red Cross shop, with its salvage
department, is now the main source of
revenue for the Portland chapter.
For this reason a widespread appeal
is issued by the shop for anything of
tales value.

aged and Officers Ingle and Drapeau
were thrown to the pavement in a colli
sion Friday night at Third and Oak

driving west on Oak street when the
other car, driven by the thieves at a
fast rate of speed, collided with the
police patrol at the street intersection.
The police car was spun around like
a top on the slippery pavement and the
heavier machine continued north on
Third street. Mr. Blazer, of the Factory
Motor company, offered his machine
to the officers to pursue the stolen
machine and it was found at Sixth and
Pine streets, where it had been aban

When the Baby
Needs a Laxative
No one Imowa better than the ever-watchful
mother the natural doctor of the family in
all the small ilia that when the baby is out
of sorts it is usually due to indigestion or
constipation.
It ia always well, in any of its Illnesses, to
look for this cause. The diet may have to be
changed, but before good can result from it,
the bowels must be moved.
The mother has the choice of many medi
cines cathartics, purgatives, bitter-waters,
pills, physics, etc But the little body
doesn't need such harsh remedies for they
wrench the system and do only temporary
good, so often followed by an unpleasant
reaction.
A better plan Is to employ a mild, gentle
laxative of which only a little is required.
There is a combination of simple laxative
herbs with pepsin sold by druggists under
the name of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin that
thousands of mothers have used successfully
for baby's constipation and its accompany
ing ills, such a belching, wind colic, rest
lessness, sleeplessness, etc
The nursing mother will also find it ideal .
for herself, and it is especially important that
she be free from constipation.
Syrup Pepsin is guaranteed to do as prom
ised or the druggist will refund the money.
Thousands of cautious families have it is
the house, secure against the little ills.

THE best proof of the popularity of Paige Cars is the
shortage of Paige Cars. We mean that literally--a
shortage of New Paiges and Used Paiges.
We have never had enough Paige Sixes-.-either the New
Series five-passenger Linwood or the New Series seven-;
passenger Essex to satisfy the world-wide demand.
That shortage today is more acute than. ever.
The explanation for that lies fairly and squarely in Paige
Worth. Paige Owners find that Paige Quality pays in
Economy and long Service precisely as Paige Beauty
pays in Satisfaction. Low up-keep, absence of repair'
bills, continuous running, are the foundation upon which
Paige Supremacy has been built.
