Portland lodge of Elk3 believes
that the time is ripe for a great re
vival of civic spirit, for a solid drive
to bring back normalcy, and has de
cided to dedicate an entire week to
the sole purpose of arousing Port
land, the state and the whole north
west, so far as they can, and every
one of the 3700 members of the pop
ular order of Good Fellows is pledged
to help put the plan over.
"We want more pep and less pare
goric," firmly declared the new Elks'
festival commission, which hag been
appointed to stage the big spectacular
undertaking, which is planned to
wake Old Man Portland up as he
hasn't been aroused for many moons.
The week of May 15 has been se
lected as the season for snap and
sunshine, and a programme of enter
tainment and frolic, pageantry, pa
rade, masques and spectacles that
beats anything Portland has wit
nessed in years, if not in all her his
tory, is being lined up to put ginger
and jazz into the entire community
and throughout all Elkdom of the
northwest.
Normalcy Move Next.
Portland's strong and growing herd
of high-spirited go-getters feel that
they are the logical organization to
stage the proposed revival of good
times and to make a reality of "nor
malcy," which everyone is talking
about. The Elks accomplished great
things during the war; they helped
the Salvation Army and led in many
patriotic movements. Each year they
provide necessities and comforts for
thousands of needy men, women and
children through the picturesque
Chris'tmas tree celebration, and now
they are shoulder to shoulder in an
effort to build up better times here
at home by the erection of a million
dollar temple.
The municipal auditorium has been
secured for the entire week of May
15, and It will be the scene of some
brilliant and thrilling events.
Circus to Be Staged.
Chief among the star attractions
arranged for is a top-notch indoor cir
cus, with a bewildering array of
splendid equestrian events staged un
der the direction of Walter Honey
man, who will be assisted by the
members of the Portland Hunt club
and other crack horsemen of the Pa
cific northwest. A group of 30 of
the best trained horses in the country
have been obtained for this feature.
Negotiations are now going on to
secure a reproduction of the wonder
ful chariot race from the play "Ben
Hur," which could be given most ef
fectively on the large stage in the
auditorium.
Other features so far determined
upon are: Spring fashion review an
industrial fair, a queen voting con
test and imperial coronation, oriental
garden fete, bazaar, a dansant and
Mardi Gras, fairyland and other en
tertainment events of interest.
The following is the personnel of
the Elks' festival commission which
will have general charge of the cele
bration: J. W. Morrow, chairman;
John B. Hibbard, W. P. Strandborg,
Milton R. Klepper, Gus C. Moser, A.
R. McKlnley, Ben Norden and M. E.
Spaulding, secretary.
Headquarters will be opened in -the
Elks' building this week.

Internal Revenue Collector's Of

In Acme Company Case.
CLEVELAND, Feb. 18.- A decision
handed down by Federal Judge West
enhaver Friday against the govern
ment in its collection of income taxes
from stockholders of the National
Acme company of Cleveland means
that the government must refund
thousands of dollars to stockholders
of many corporations throughout the
country which reorganized in the
last four or five years according to
officers of the Internal revenue col
lector's office here,
The National Acme company, reor
ganized in 1916, Increasing its capi
talization from 5,000,000 to 25,000,-
000. Each shareholder was given
five shares of stock in the new con
cern at $50 par value, plus $150 cash,
for each share of $100 par value in
the old concern.
j The court holds that the internal
revenue collector unlawfully certi
fied the stockholders to pay tax on
$222 a share of stock more than they
were taxable under the law. The
transaction, so far as the shares are
concerned, does not constitute a sale
of stock, but merely a transfer and
income taxes may be computed only
on the basis of the $150 cash part of
the transaction, according to the
court's ruling.

The snow-capped neak of Mount
Rainier was scaled for the first time
in mid-winter when four men suc
ceeded in reaching the summit on
Monday, February 13, after 10 hours
of hard climbing.' The party in
cluded Charles R. Ferryman, moving

Swiss Alpine climbe!,!, Jean Bugues,
and French climberBT Jacques and
ean Landry.
The party started from Anvil Rock
rangers' cabin shortly after 4 A. M.
and toiled upward past Gibraltar,
hewing footholds in the ice-chested
slope. The use of axes again was
found necessary in ascending the
heights beyond. After passing
those two points, the ascent was
somewhat easier, although, still dan
gerous. Many dangerous crevasses
caused the party to detour and use
extreme caution.
The crest of the mountain was
reached at 2:15 o'clock that same
afternoon. The name and address of
each member of the party and the
date were written on a piece of
paper, placed in a bottle and the bot
tle was .laid in a cairn of stones as
evidence that the summit had been
reached by the hardy adventurers.
Perryman obtained iuu leet oi
film showing views at the summit
and also took pictures during the
climb.
The descent was made in half the
time required for the climb. The
four men reached Anvil rock at 7:30
that night. They had passed prac
tically 15 hours on the mountain in
the piercing cold, intensified by a
raw wind. The members of the party
were practically exhausted upon
their return to the ranger's station.

ELSIE fllLLVVITHIN LAW
Xo Statute of Connecticut Can Com
pel Use of Husband's Name. ,
HARTFORD, Conn., Feb. 18. Elsie
Hill, who recently married Professor
Lcavitt, was so well known in Con
necticut as a suffragist leader and
worker, that the announcement that
she would retain her1 maiden - name
though married attracted state-wide
attention. It set lawyers and others
at work reading statutes old and new
to see if there was anything in them
which would prevent Elsie Hill from
using in Connecticut her maiden
name though married.
The best legal opinion in default
of an actual court decision is that
a woman may take any name Bill
chooses provided there is no intent
to defraud.
There are no written words which
requires a woman in Connecticut to
take her husband's nam after mar
riage. Lawyers, however, say that
it will have to be determined if a
marriei woman retaining her Pia'.dn
name can vote under ; the maiden
name or obtain a passport from the
government.

CUPID PLAYS IN HARD LUCK,
BUT MANAGES TO WIN OUT
Bridal Pair Are Wrecked in Auto, But Are Married Anyway, and Then

Venus was on the outs with
Mars, or Jinx had it in for .Hy
men, as the astrologers put it, there
fore in spite of the benign influence
of St. Valentine Cupid placed in bad
luck all the week. He won out all
right, of course, but he sustained a
good many abrasions and contusions
in the process.
There were, for example, the nup
tials and compound fractures of the
Greenbergs and Diamonds. Henrietta
Greenberg set out with Jack Diamond
and various friendg and relatives in
a motor car, bent on nothing more
serious than getting married. In
avoiding a pile of building material
left by the Jinx on third avenue, the
chauffeur wrapped the machine and
its contents around an "L" pillar with
damage to- all concerned. An -ambulance
surgeon was summoned instead
of a cleric. Four stitches were taken
in the bride's cheek and the bride
groom was bandaged and courtplas
tered. Holdup Arranged by Jinx.
When the ambulance man' was
through with them the happy pair
looked upon each other and decided
gamely that marriage couldn't be any
worse.
' And there was the wedding cele
bration in Brooklyn, completely dis
rupted when the jinx arranged a
holdup around the corner. Into the
joy and dancmg of the post-nuptial
festivities dashed Jacob Garber with a

m NOW IN PENITENTIARY
SALEM PRISON AT HIGH MARK
OF SEVERAL YEARS.
Gain of 133 Prisoners Is Shown
for Last 1 2 Months and In
crease Continues.
SALEM, Or., Feb. 18. (Special.)
The population of the Oregon state
penitentiary today totaled 445, which
is the high mark for a number of
years. This figure shjws a, gain of
133 prisoners during the last 12
months, and the enrollment continues
to increase.
During the last year there were
received at the penitentiary 37 men
under sentences ranging from five
years to life. These prisoners were
sentenced for crimes of violence, not
Including murder, and. are not eligi
ble to parole.
Warden Compton said that these
prisoners can be released only after
serving their full sentences, less cer
tain deductions for good behavior or
executive clemency in the shape of a
pardon. -
At the special session of the legis
lature in January, 1920 a. law was
passed, upon the recommendation of
Governor Olcott, which provided:
"Whenever any person is convicted
of the charge of having committed
homicide in any degree, treason, rape
(where violence is an element of the
crime), robbery of any kind, burglary
when armed with a dangerous wea
pon and assault with intent to kill
while being armed with a dangerous
weapon, the court shall, unless the
penalty for the commission of such
crime be life imprisonment," sentence
such person to serve a definite term
in the penitentiary not in excess of
the maximum term provided by law
therefor."
Under this law a person convicted
of any of the crimes enumerated is
never eligible for parole.
"It is barely posslble,"said Gov
ernor Olcott in a statemeiw comment
ing on the prison situation, "that if
those persons who are planning to
commit such crimes notice the sen
tences now being imposed and real
ize that on top of such sentences all
parole privileges are denied them by
law, they may hesitate before carry
ing out their criminal Intentions."
In case the population of the prison
continues to increase during the pres
ent year on the same basis as during
the past 12 months, the institution
will be crowded to its capacity by
December 81.

Fred Princeton, 23, were arrested in
a room of a Tavlor-street lodcini?
J house Friday night, after inanectora
money. Garber, who carried quite a
sum with him, had replied by head
long flight, and as he flashed around
the corner the sound of many peopla
merrymaking came gratefully to hia
ears. In an instant several dozen
wedding guests piled out of the hous
and into taxicabs and gave chase to
such good purpose that they had twi
suspects down and nearly out before
the police came to the rescue of the
captives. But meanwhile the bridal
pair stood disconsolate in the receiv
ing line with no line to receive.
Pencil Costs Man $10.
There was James Mayonl, likewise
who came to Manhattan from Brook
lyn to buy a pencil, which cost him
$10. Mayonl declared in court tha
Cupid had nothing to do with the
matter, but Miss May Davis didn'l
like It because she thought Mayon
winked at her. She thought this fof
three blocks and then the jinx in a
patrolman's uniform took Mayoni to
the night court. Mayoni protested he

the mag'strate thought the same as
