July 1 Oregon Pioneer association.
Portland was eased into convention
month by the sessions of the State
TUedical association and the alumni
of the University of Oregon medical
echool, and from now on, not a single
week, and mighty few days, have
blank spaces on the calendar.
In all the history of conventions,
probably there never has been such
a list of them held anywhere in the
same period, with the possible excep
tion of the exposition months at San
Krancisco.
Take a look at the list: The grand
chapter of the Blastern Star, June S;
the. Travelers' Protective association
from June 14 to June 19; the Kiwanis
clubs June 1 6 to 19; the state lodge
of Masons June 16; then, that never-to-be-forgotten
three days of the
Shrine. June 22 to June 24; then two
days of Rose Festival, beginning June
24. the last day of the Shrine; a
week's breathing spell and the brave
old Indian war veterans gather the
last day of the month, with July 1
entertaining Oregon's venerable pio
neers and-the affiliated organizations.
Shrine Leada Them All.
Of course, the Shrine leads them
all pre-eminently in point of num
bers, but in any ordinary month any
single convention of them all would
le notable. The travelers will bring
from 4000 to 5000 persons. The Ki
wanis will entertain from 2000 to
2500 delegates, not to speak of as
many more friends. Who knows how
many thousands will pour in for the
Rose Festival? Then the hundreds
of the veterans and the 2000 or so
pioneers and their friends.
Parades, bands, fun, auto drives,
why, Portland will be a merry, merry
host the livelong month. For the
crowds from one convention will over
lap into those of the next and be in
extricably mingled.
How 3Iany Can See Hlfchwayf
How many thousand of Portland's
guests will see the highway is a
matter of conjecture. The travelers
hope to get all their delegates on the
nation's most imposing drive and -so
. do the Kiwanis. The Shrine com
mittee believes it can take 12,000 a
day or say 40,000 in all.
The Kiwanis have a great stunt
parade, so have the T. P. A. The
Shriners have their own evening dress
affair, with 70 bands, etc. There is
the electric parade, the decorated pa
rade of the Rose Festival, the digni
fied march of the Masons yes, there
will be parades.
Avaunt, dull care! Make it vacation
month. Let's give everyone a right
royal Portland welcome and over the
length and breadth of the country
will be carried Portland's fame anil
Portland's name.

Shriners! It's No Trouble
to Get a Dress Suit.
"Dadu" I'llker ew or Second
Hand Offered Freely In Portland.
HAVE you a little dress suit in your
home?
If you are an old-time Shriner. of
course you have your pet "open-face"
all cleaned and pressed ready for the
big doings.
If you are one of the recent noviti
ates, all Portland clotliingdoni has
eager hands outstretched ready to
outfit you at a price.
And if you haven't the price, why,
the friendly want ad comes to your
assistance. For example:
"Fine selection full-dress suits for
sale or rent."
If you are a new Shriner, you will
not yet have reached that rotundity
of dimensions that is fatal to 'that
dress suit you wore when you were
married. Yes, there's hope for you, at
bargain prices, too. Just read;
"Dress suit, reasonable; too small
for owner. Phone Sellwood
If you are pompous and. as one W.
Shakespeare said, "of fair round belly
with good capon lined." why, you may
get a note of joy in this one:
"New Shriner's dress suit, size 44.
Phone Tabor E F G."
And perhaps you expect hard wear.
If so, try this extra coat ad:
"Full-dress suit, 3 coats, size 38,
perfect condition, a bargain. Call No. 7
A street. Phone Portland XYZ."
If style is your idea in life, you
Shriner. why. this little ad may bring
comfort to your frame and pocket
book: "Gentleman's tuxedo coat and vest,
made in New York: also new full
dress suit, size 39; both latest style;
buy from owner. very reasonable.
Phone Main ABC."
The friendly little want ad was
never so friendly as Just now. It ac
commodates itself to every need.
Of course, to you whose pocketbook
is plethoric, the little comforting want
ad will not appeal. Smith or Jones or
Brown will be glad to take your
measure and deliver you the regula
tion "soup and nuts" in full time for
the ceremonials and the parade in
which you simply must appear - in
broad daylight with the insignia ded
icated to the darker hours the full
dress suit.

STAGED BY HILLAH TEMPLE.
Gasoline Needed to Provide
Beds for Shriners.
Woman In Yamhill. Or.. Writes, of
Inability o Move . Kurniture to
Portland.
Suggestions by the score of how
Portland may take better care of its i
thousands of convention guests, es-
pecially the Shriners. pour in daily to
convention headquarters. I
Here are some of them:
Get your hair cut before the con- I
vention days. The convention guests
will need to monopolize all the bar
bers in town. And for the same rea
son dig out the old safety razor and
learn to use it yourself.
Bring your own lunches downtown.
The restaurants are going to be
crowded. Let the visitors have first
chance at getting good meals and
they'll feel better and enjoy them
selves more.
Ose-War Traffic Wanted.
Pedestrians, take the right side of
the street. One-way traffic will make
everything easier and the visitors will
soon catch the idea.
Have the winter's wood cut and get
it into the basement at once. The
city can pass an ordinance to make
you do it, but how much pleasanter it
will be to do it of your own volition,
just to spruce up for the visitors.
Clean up and paint up all you can.
Trim the rose bushes. Mow the
lawn and spade ,up the flower beds.
Visitors appreciate a fresh, spick and
span, spotless town.
Portland hardly appreciates the
mammoth nature of the Shrine con
vention as yet. For example, there
will be 7000 uniformed members in
parade, not to speak of the three or
four times that number in dress suits.
There are 190 marching organizations,
70 bands, chanters and patrols in
tending to participate.
Many Maneota 'Are Comlnc,
Elephants, camels and mascots of
all size and kind are being brought in
the special trains. There will be a
regular circus menagerie.
Just to bid farewell to Frceland
Kendrick 10,000 Shrinera in Newark,
N. J., paraded through the streets of
that city, coming from, far and near,
and they had everything in the line of
a menagerie then and that was but
a "little" farewell gathering.
"Everyone is coming," is the mes
sage that now comes to Shrine head
quarters and they are coming in
everything short of those "hommea
16 chevaux 8" freight wagons. By
Pullman, tourist car or day coach
they have announced they will come
any way to get to Portland.
Great Event Proposed.
Shrinedom intends to make the
Portland convention the greatest ever.
Portland must do her part so that the
Shriners will feel that way after the
convention as well as before.
"Write to your Shrine friends there
will be plenty: of gasoline," urges W.
J. Hofmann.
"Paint up, clean up, wash up," says
George JU. Baker. "The theaters and
down-town business houses are doing
this; let the home owner do the same."
And from Shrine headquarters.
Travelers Protective association of
fices, Kiwanis and all the rest comet
the' message, "Let's make the Port
land welcome the greatest ever."
Club Attend in Body, 50 Shriners
Coming I'roin Klamath Falls.
Portland Trip Planned.
ASHLAND, Or., June 5. (Special.)
All roads led to this city today,
when the "homecoming" ceremonial
was staged by Hillah temple of the
Mystic Shrine.
Hillah temple Shrine clubs attended
in a body and participated, more than
60 persons coming from the Klamath
Falls organization alone.
Hillah temple plans on- going to
Portland en masse, according to an
outline as presented here today. Many
of the Shriners had planned on driv
ing by auto to the state's metropolis,
but due to the shortage of gasoline
they felt it would be better to con
serve as much gasoline as possible
for the farmer.
Deputy potentates for Hillah were
appointed as follows: George S. Cal
houn of Grants Pass, for Josephine:
R. IX Williams of Roscburg, for
Douglas; Worth Harvey of Cottage
Grove, for Lane, and Jackson F. Kim
ball of Klamath Falls, for Klamath
and Lake counties, all of whom are
planning on making the trip to Portland.

"Wanted To get to the Shrine
convention. We need eight gallons
of gasoline. Can you help us?"
As an indication of the desire on
the part of Oregonians to visit the
"convention city of the country" this
year, the Shrine committee yesterday
received a letter from a woman in
Yamhill. Or. as follows:

furniture to get to Portland to be
used for the benefit of the Shriners.
Would like to take them to Portland
next Friday, June 12, or Saturday,

OFFICIAL
FACTS CONCERNING GASOLINE
The Following Statements Are Authentic and Tell
the True Conditions of the Gasoline Situation
The Shortage Is Only Temporary Do Not Be Alarmed
There exists in the State of Oregon and on the Pacific Coast a tem
porary gasoline shortage. To eliminate this shortage and to supply
industrial and agricultural requirements we have been convinced
that it will be necessary for motorists throughout the entire Coast
to curtail the use of gasoline for pleasure purposes.
The percentage of curtailment will have to be more drastic in
Oregon because the situation is more acute here than in California
or Washington, caused principally by our gravity test law.
In order to conserve enough gasoline from Portland's allotment
for agricultural requirements and the convention period it will be
necessary to curtail for the next two weeks the use of gasoline for
pleasure riding 80. Such curtailment will give us almost a normal
supply during this period.
Following the convention period and through July and August
there will continue to be a shortage, but we are assured by the Oil
Companies' representatiyes that approximately a 50 of normal
supply will be available.
There has been a great deal said of late about shortage of motor
fuel. A great many people think there is some ulterior motive on
the part of the Oil Companies but we are convinced that such
is not the case. The report that large quantities of gasoline were
being exported has received wide circulation, and it is true that
there has been some exportation, which was necessary on account
of existing contracts, but for each gallon of gasoline exported from
this coast, four gallons have been brought in from the East. At the
present time shipments from the East average six gallons for each
gallon being exported. Oil Officials assure us that no new export
contracts have been accepted for several months, and that none will
be accepted.
No Occasion for Alarm Shortage Only Temporary
We wish to advise the motoring public that there is no occasion
for alarm, but to emphasize and to assure them, as the result of the
statements made us by the representatives of the Oil Companies,
that the shortage is but temporary and that conditions will again
be normal at the end of the ten weeks' conservation.
We notice the Oil Companies continue to dot the city with service
stations. It does not stand to reason that they would make such
investments if 'they did not know that the present situation was
only temporary.

Always on the Job.
Visit your dentist more often and you will visit your doctor
less frequently.
The dentist of today occupies an important position, and
upon his skill, knowledge "and integrity depends his value to
the community.
Science has proven beyond question that bad teeth cause half
our bodily ills, and physicians everywhere are working hand in
hand with the modern dentist in an effort to educate the public
to the necessity of keeping the teeth and mouth in as nearly
perfect condition as possible.
Infection taken into the blood through the oral cavity, due to
pus pockets, decayed teeth and infected roots, causes rheumatism,
kidney and stomach troubles, and even more serious troubles have
cleared up after extraction or treatment of the infected area.
Between the views of the more radical members of both pro
fessions who advocate the extraction of every suspected tooth, and
the ultra-conservative views of the "stand pat" element, who take
the other extreme, the public is left in doubt as to the best
course to pursue.
A complete examination with frank advice and estimate of
work which may be required costs you nothing here. You do
wrong to remain in doubt regarding the condition of your mouth
and teeth when this service may be had for the asking.
OFFICE OPEN EVENINGS
For the convenience of people who work all day, this office
will remain open every evening (except Sundays) until 8 P. M.
Take advantage of this opportunity to have your work done after

MY 15-YEAR GUARANTEE
My quality has stood the test. Thousands have found it per
manent. How else could I personally guarantee it for 15 years?
Quality dentistry does not always mean extremely high fees. My
low fees are within t each of all merely a fair profit on your work.
