Feathered pets have never re ceived credit for any large amount of brains; in fact, many satirical ep ithets originate in the poultry yard to the disparagement of fowls. Take for instance the "silly little goose" phrase, or "O Robert, you great big goose." Then again "some chicken," a comparison that is not always flattering to the hens in the barn yard, and son-in-law's pet phrase, "the old hen," out of keeping with the honest bird that clucks and cackles and lays eggs for son-in-law's breakfast. The only part of our story that is in keeping with common impression - regards - the proud and haughty swan. To contradict the illusion that feathers coyer bodies that taper off to necks that are healed over with heads containing dormant, unrea soning brains, step forward and be Introduced to Bob, the speed fiend goose. Napoleon and Crooky, educat ed chickens, and General Pershing, wife and family, particular swans of particular tastes. All of them, ladies and gentlemen, are home grown, hatched, raised and educated in Ore gon; unfouled by tne smudge and heat of a circus tent and unsullied by the stare of curious crowds. Rooster Is Made Pet. While Keith DeLong, 660 Nehalem street, lay in bed, an invalid for months, he drove away dull care by ' making a pet of Napoleon, a rooster. Napoleon grew fond of the boy as time went on and when- Keith was able to leave his bed Napoleon be gan following him around. Later when Keith was able to ride a bi cycle he placed Napoleon on the handle bars and taught him to ride. .Napoleon, by the way, was young 'in those days, and it was not until .he had mastered the art of handle bar riding that he began to take notice of the ladies. For beauty he had no taste whatever, and he chose for his mate and companion a cer tain hen with a crooked bill, called Crooky for short. Crooky also took to joy-riding and the pair and the boy are now .seen on Portland streets, gadding around with splen did interest in their pastime, but no concern for the attention they re- ' ceive. Tie a string around a chicken's neck and It will invariably hang it self. Not - so with Napoleon. He took to harness with the same fine reason that he ook to joy riding, realizing, as it were, that he must give rides if he receives them. Young Mr. DeLong manufactured a email cart and a set of rooster har ness and taught Napoleon not only to drive and haul a load, but to stand without hitching and to an swer to both "Giddap" and "Whoa." And to make matters better, Crooky climbs on the cart and Na poleon hauls her around like a duti ful husband. Later on perhaps they .will have a chick carriage for Na poleon to push while Crooky does her shopping. Goose Rides Automobile. ' But the doughty rooster on the handle bars of a bicycle fades from the limelight in point of daring when Bob, the speed fiend goose, owned by Mrs. Eunice M. Bothwell, 928 Everett street, goes by perched on the radiator of his mistress' au tomobile, balancing himself nicely to the motion of the car, leaning for"ward with joy when the car speeds and walking back and forth on the hood promenade deck ac cording to his inclinations. Becently he made a trip t Seattle on the radiator of the car. While there he was stolen and rescued again by his owner. He rides the radiator in all kinds of- weather, over all kinds of roads, cutting ma neuvers to negotiate rough roads end, backing to the rear of the hood when he sights trouble ahead. Driven with ribbons, Bob has strutted around the arena of the state fair, the International live stock exposition, in parades, and this week he will cut capers in the Rose Festival. Also he is an actor, having recently starred in a "Mother Goose" play given by the children of the Hawthorne-Buckman school. As to General Pershing and fam ily, they live in Laurelhurst park, the guests and wards of the city. Most of the family, the three baby, swans, arrived a short time ago, MANY TOURISTS LOOKING . FOR PROPERTY IN WEST One Family Buys Ranch Near Kalama, Wash'and Others Inspect Tracts in Neighborhood of Portland. BY 'ADDISON BENNETT. KJ. KOIVULA, Mts. Koivula and two small children are all the way from Detroit, Mich., and do not care where they go or when they go. Just so they keep going. They may winter in California. Mr. and Mrs. C. H. Barker, with their 30-year-old son, Ben Harrison Barker, are looking for a ranch to buy or rent. They are from Sacra mento, Cal., and for ten years trav- " eled with another son and brother, who was . ill for many years. He died a year ago last March. Mr. and Mrs. H. C. Craig have a wheat ranch near Pendleton, and reside in the town." They are here -for the Rose Festival, but -left Saturday- for a run to Seaside and back. , ' One very pleasant feature of the camp, one that makes Superinten dent Keady feel pleasant, is that thAre la no complaint about losses. Some of the campers every day .teave their plunder at the camp and take a spin up or down the high way, maybe to Salem or Albany, and return at night to find every thing just as they left it. This is not only pleasing to Mr. Keady and . the management in general, but speaks well for the travelers. Mr. and Mrs. Patrick Gibbons and their fine family of four children, . John, age 16; Elizabeth, 14; Jessie, 13, and Alice, 12, are from' Butte, Mont., where for years Mr. Gibbons has worked in the mines.

'Graceful and dignified, haughty and reserved, papa and mamma float the ripples of the lake and guard the precious cygnets, which means gosling in swan language. ' General Pershing Gives Chase. The story of the swans can best be told by relating the experience of "Mac," the photographer. Ar riving at the lake where the gen eral, wife and three children were swimming around, he set his cam era to catch them as they were. Angered at the intrusion of the fam ily's privacy, and fearing for the safety of the children. General Per shing lived up to the reputation of his namesake by leaving the 'water and chasing "Mac" around the lake. This cunning caper was repeated several times. Unfortunately, "Mac" couldn't take a picture of himself being chased, but he finally succeed ed in sneaking up while General . Pershing wasn't looking, snapping the picture and getting on his way as quickly as possible. Custodians of the nark say that General Pershing treats all visitors In the same manner. As long as they keep moving he Ignores them ana concentrates his attention on his family, but as soon as they stop on the bank of Uie lake the general be comes indignant at their stares and chases them away. The three swan lets are now about two weeks old and spend most of their time on the lake. ' They have been swimming most of their lives. Official Quits; Road WorkWalts. WHITE SALMON, Wash., June 17.

CAMP TO BE ATTRACTIVE YOUNG MN URGED TO TAKE VACATION WITH AKMT. Dances, Picnics, Boating and Other Forms of Entertainment ' , to Be Provided. "Take your vacation with the army" Is the substance of an invita tion extended y the federal govern? ment to the young men of the north west through the annual citizens' military training camp, which will open at Camp Lewis July 27 and close August 25. Colonel P. Whit- worth, chief of staff of the 96th dl vision, who will command the train ing camp, yesterday outlined the ac tivities planned there for this sum mer and declared that less intensive training and more recreation and entertainment will be included in the amp programme this year than ever before. During the war period, and to STEAM AND AIR VALVE SAID TO ELIMINATE LEAKAGE. Apparatus invented by Gust Grafflnberger, Portland me chanic. A new steam and air valve which Is declared . to elimin ate leakage is the invention of Gust Graffinberger, Port land sawmill mechanic, and a company known as the Graf finberger Air Valve company. Incorporated, has been organ ized for the manufacture of thesC valves. The valve has been tried out in actual, work at the Peninsula Lumber com pany's mill and Is declared to have proved successful., Th valve is automatically , closed and the greater the' pressure of steam or air the more firmly it closes. This is brought about through the special construction of the gate to the valve opening. The gate is placed on the inside of the steam chamber and is pressed against the opening or exit by a spring. In open ing the gate for the release of the steam a plunger operated by a lever presses it inward away from the opening. - ' j m n some extent last summer, the train ing camp activities embodied the idea of making troops of recruits or students In as short a time as pos sible. Colonel Whitworth, however, is authority for the statement that there will be nothing Intensive about the training at this summer's camp, but that rather the young man attending the camp will be made to enjoy the experience so .thoroughly that he will wish to re turn to the camp next summer for the more advanced course in mili tary science and tactics. Dances attended by the girls liv ing in neighboring cities and their mothers will play an important part in the social life of the camp, and such affairs are to be staged every Wednesday and ' Saturday. Picnics and boating and swimming parties will also be included In the recrea tion of the students and Saturday noon to Monday morning outing trips will he a regular weekly event. Baseball games, track ' and field meets and other forms of athletics will form a part of each day's rou tine, along with the drill, cales thenics and instruction in the use of arms. Colonel Whitworth is explicit in the statement that attendance at the summer training camp entails no additional obligation for further military service on the part of the student, though every one who com pletes the three prescribed courses of Instruction will be qualified to become a commissioned officer in the organized reserves of the nation. A. E. F. SI TOM HARNEY ON 3000-MILE HIKE TO CONVENTION. Traveler and His Dog Are Well- Plastered With Signs Telling, of Seattle Gathering. Tom Harney, known throughout the i American expeditionary forces In France for his mile-running abil ity, arrived in Portland yesterday on the last leg of a more than 3000- mile hike from his home in Wor cester, Malss., to the national con vention of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, to be held in Seattle, Wash., August 14 to 19.- Harney is accom panied by his Airedale dog, Girlie, and both are well plastered with signs announcing the veterans' con vention.

Survey Intended to Give Most Complete Library of Informa tion Yet Assembled Here. A study of Portland as a city, in cluding an analysis of its physical machinery, amounting to an inven tory of its equipment, and a study of the organization of its operative features, such as laws and personnel of administration, is a unique plan of civic work being evolved by the oity club of Portland through its puouc affairs committee. The con summation of the survey is intended to give the city club the most com plete library of Information on local municipal affairs that has been as sembled. Dr. Otis B. Wright chairman of the committee, of which, Norman F. Coleman, J. A Cranston, C. C. Ludwig. W. H. Marsh and Sin clair A. Wilson are members. The scheme of the study is being planned by Mr. Marsh and will be submitted to the club this week in chart form. The plan divides the city into two divisions, the physical and the oper ative. Under the first division are listed the industrial, educational, rec reational and correctional subdi visions which compass the "physical plant" of the city, both under public and private ownership. The admin istrative organiztaion and the laws and statutes affecting city manage ment will be studied as operative features. . Especially commending the plan to the city club is the fact that it will include work now under way, that already accomplished, as well as outlining the -entire civic field in a graphic manner. Early last week the "cabinet" of the club, including officers and all committees, held a dinner meeting to consider the year's programme of work, reported on by chairmen of committees. Ownership of the Latourell loops, or the "figure eight," on the Colum bla river highway, in order that the 40-acre tract may be deeded to the public and thus perpetuated in all its beauty, is a goal upon which the city club has set its heart. The own er arrived in the city last week to confer with the club committee and plans for devising ways and means for purchasing the tract will be con sidered by the club governors to morrow.

Advertising; is an important part of every live busi ness, BUT ONLY A PART. -' The man who imagines it is only necessary to place an advertisement in the papers to make his business a suc cess has a rude awakening' coming to him. Even when properly done, advertising is merely a bid for patronage ; if it brings inquiries it has done its part, although it does frequently clinch sales as well. To interest people the advertisement must, first of all, RING TRUE; it must be believed. It must convey a' message that pictures the "goods" advertised clearly; it must awaken a desire to possess, convince that both goods and price are right, and either directly or indi rectly point out how the articles may be secured without too much effort. Claims made in Dental Advertising must be made 100 per cent good. Promises, direct or implied, in the adver tising done by this office are as carefully written and conscientiously made as if they were being written into a legal contract.
