Prom a musical and entertainment
standpoint the public auditorium
will have a big season this fall
and winter, according to Hal White,
manager, who is now completing
the season's principal bookings.
There will be a great deal of mu
eic this year and a few theatrical
attractions. Theatricals, however;
are uncertain because of railroad
conditions. .
It is considered certain that the
Chicago Grand Opera company,
which played in Portland last sea
son, will not come this year and It
is doubtful if the San Carlo Grand
Onera company will come. The San
Carlo management met with re
verses on the coast last season, due
probably to the coming of the Chi
cago company, and the company
probably will confine its activities
to the east this season, rnis win
leave Portland with no grand opera
during the year unless some other
company comes.
' Season Late in Starting.
The auditorium's season is late in
starting thia year because of the
Episcopal convention. The season
will open on Friday, September 29,
with the old testament of the Bible
in motion pictures. This is a nine
reel special production of the non
theatrical type and will be pre
sented with an elaborate musical
programme for one week, with one
performance each afternoon and one
each evening. The film starts with
the creation of the world and fol
lows the Bible stories through show-
ing the creation, Adam and Eve,
Noah's ark, Cain and Abel, the del
uge and other stories of the Bible.
Portland will be the first city to
see the entire production.
The annual season of Sunday af
ternoon concerts are being arranged
to start Sunday, November 5, and
will be given each Sunday afternoon
until April, featuring bands, orches
tras, singing societies, soloists,- etc
It is planned this season to bring
two or three prominent organists
here from other cities.
Amateurs Stake Plans.
The amateur theatrical and sing
ing organizations are planning
their usual season. The Portland
Opera association, due to successes
in past seasons, is preparing a two
nights' engagement, November 17
and 18, and will enlarge this year
on its performances. The Elwyn
Concert bureau will Kve a course
of .seven numbers during the sea
son. The list includes' the follow
ing artists and attractions: Madame
Matzenauer. Evelyn Scotney, Miro
vitch, Mozart's opera comiquejv"Cosl
fa tutte," Mischa Elman, Florence
Easton, Paul Althouse and Salvi.
This agency also Is arranging for
other numbers during the season.
The Apollo club will present its
usual season of three concerts and
will have a special soloist at each
concert.
One of the big attractions will be
the Ukrainian National chorus, an
organization of 40 voices, with sev
eral operatic stars from Ukrainia.
This organization, which has been
the sensation of New -York for sev
eral months, will be brought here
by Max Rabinoff, noted director.
This will be Mr. Rabinoff's first ap
pearance here in about ten years.
His last trip was with a large sym
phony orchestra.
In addition to the regular musical j
numbers will be a number of world
stars. Among those who will ap
pear in concert are ftladame Gadski,
Rosa Raisa and Giacono Rimini of
the Chicago' Grand Opera company,
and Titi Ruffo, baritone.

JEWS OBSERVE HOLIDAY
ANNIVERSARY OF AVORLD'S
CREATION HONORED.
Synagogues Hold Special Services ;
Orthodox to Have Two-Day
Celebration.
'New Tear's day, the year 5683, the
anniversary of the creation of the
world, was observed by Jews of
Portland yesterday in the celebra
tion of Rosh Hashanah, a sacred
holiday.
From sundown Friday evening
until the same time last night, all
the sons of Israel set aside their
worldly cares and gave observance
to what is said by them to be a
time sacred for commemorating the
birth of humanity. Like the secular
New Tear's day, Rosh Hashanah Is
a time for the strengthening of old
resolutions and the determination of
new ones, particularly religious
vows for spiritual guidance and
harmony with God.
All synagogues of Portland con
ducted special services for the
occasion both Friday evening an&
Saturday morning. The Temple
Beth Israel also has services this
morning for the benefit of . the
young people and children.
The orthodox Jewsv not content
with passing off the coming of a
new year with 24 hours of holiday,
insist upon Sunday also being ob
served as a day equal in importance
to the first day. Services are to be
held in the four orthodox syna
gogues this morning.
When a week has elapsed from
the time of this celebration, the
Jews will observe what is known
as the holiest day of the synagogue,
the day of atonement. Tom Kippur j
Is the time for a 24-hour fast
among the Jews, and will fall on
Sunday, October 1.

IXNDON, Sept. 23. Submarine
cabling is not in danger of being
superseded by wireless transmis
sion, if one may Judge from the ac-
tivities of cable companies since the
armistice. One European company
has laid more than 23,000 miles of
ocean cable in the past three years,
and it is believed that American
companies have done as much in
other parts of the sea.
Today the world Is encircled by
225,000 miles of electrified ropes
that carry messages from man to
man. Fifty years ago there were
only 8000 nautical miles of cable.
On the modern routes duplicate
triplicate, and even sextupllcate
cables are provided, and the entire
system is linked up by alternative
and circuitous lines, o that it inter
ruption occurs on one artery an
other may be quickly pressed into
use.
Vast Network Covers Globe.
Land lines that link these ocean
cables into one vast network con
stitute the nervous system of the
civilized world. There is hardly any
spot on the habitable globe which
cannot speedily he reached by a
message over this great arterial
system.
With the amazing develonment
and1 perfection of wireless as
means of disseminating the world's
thought. It was believed at one time
that the submarine cable soon would
1 become obsolete; but the fact is that
the business of the ocean telegraph
companies has increased by leaps
and bounds until today there are
scarcely sufficient cables to carry
the enormous volume of messages
daily sent across the five oceans
and under the seven seas. It is ap
parent there is ample room for both
forms of telegraphy.
Development Reads Like Romance.
The development of the submarine
cable reads almost like a romance.
As in so many of the world's other
modern miracles and inventions it
was an American Cyrus W. Field
who was the pioneer in the Industry
In 1858 he laid the first cable be
tween Newfoundland and Ireland
This line was 2500 miles long and
the wire weighed one ton to the
mile.
The project was characterized at
the time as ''the boldest feat of
electrical engineering work ever at
tempted." The cable tolls then were
$100 for 20 words of five letters each
and $5 for every five letters extra.
Today the fate for 20 words is less
' than $5.

SHERIDAN. Or., Sept. 23. (Spe
cial.) The Willamina plant of the
Yamhill Electric company has been
improved with the installation of a
new flume and dynamo, heretofore
the Willamina plant has been a dead
loss during the summer months, as
it was not equipped to furnish
power during low water. This
change will cause the plant to be
used winter and summer. The towns
of Sheridan, Amity, Ballston, New
berg, Lafayette, Carlton, Yamhill,
Dayton and Dundee, as well as Wil
lamina, are supplied with power and
light by the Yamhill Electric com
pany, and Willamina will now be
one ot the sources of power.
HEN the third conduit from
the Bull Run reserve is com
pleted, and it is planned to
begin construction on this project
next year, enough water can be sent
to Portland through this and the
two existing lines to care for the
needs of 1,000,000 people.
And, should the population of
Portland and . its environs increase
to such an extent that this amount
of water each day will not be suffl
cient, it will be possible to make
additional development in the vast
reserve so that at least 500,000,000
gallons of water can be sent to
Portland each day. This amount
would care for about 3,500,000 peo
pie.
This is what city officials learned
on a recent inspection trip In the
beautiful Bull Run reserve, a tract
of timbered land comprising 222
square miles.
Seepage Is Prevented.
Twenty per cent of the water that
Is used by Portland residents comes
from Bull Run lake, which nestles in
the shadow of Mount Hood, about
50 miles east of the city. The re
mainder of the water comes from
many litle streams that empty into
Bull Run river as it courses from
the lake to the Bull Run headworks
where the Portland pipe lines be
gin. The initial storage project is now
being completed at Bull Run lake.
The permanent dam of timber-crib
construction, with rock fills, was
completed in 1919, and since that
time an impounding dam has been
completed. This dam is at the
north end of the lake and aids ma
terially in preventing the loss of
water through seepage.
Bull Run lake covers 500 acres.
Many Portland people are under the
impression that Bull Run water Is
furnished from glaciers on the side
of Mount Hood. This is not true,
for the-lake is separated from the
west slope of Mount Hood by a
high range of hills.
, Through the development of stor
age facilities by the water, bureau
f at the lake during the last few years
it is now estimated that there are
3,285,000,000 gallons of water In the
lake and, if necessary,- a 50,000,000
gallon flow can be turned out each
day for a 60-day period. At present
18,000,000 gallons are being turned
out of the lake each day, the lake
being lowered so that dead timber
on its shore lines can be removed
more readily.
Before the permanent dam was
completed the lake dropped 23tfeet
below the bottom of the present
sluice gate, but now the water never
falls below this gate.
Nature has provided a natural fil
tering plant for all the water that
flows from the .lake, for the Bull
Run river courses a defined chan
nel for about a quarter of a mile
and then drops into an underground
channel, flowing thus for about one-
half mile, when it appears on the
surface again. During the low water
period it drops underground once
again and continues on the surface
for 21 miles to the headworks.
Many Stream Available.
Future development of storage
water can be made at a reasonable
expenditure on a number of the
many streams that -empty into the
Bull Run river. The first develop
ment project for further storage of
water would be made on the Blazed
Alder river, a stream of consider
able proportions. Other streams
that contribute to Portland's en
viable water supply are Log creek.
Falls creek, Trout creek, north and
south forks of the Bull Run river.
Cougar creek, Bear creek and Camp
creek.
The city officials on the inspec
tion trip traveled down the river
for about 22 miles on an excellent
mountain trail, viewed the various
streams mentioned above and Saw
for themselves the huge timber tract
that forms the ' watershed In the
reserve. -

from the government of value that
cannot be estimated in dollars and
cents. Huge larch, spruce, fir and

Key to vNear East Crisis.
Unity of church and state within
the Moslem- empire is a key to the
present crisis in the near east, in
timated Dr. Snuel L. Joshi of
Baroda university, India, who spoke
before the first Reed college com
munity gathering Friday night.
'.'Religion and politics in Turkey
are Inseparable," said Dr. Joshi, "be
cause the sultan of Turkey is the
'pope' of the Mohammedan church
and because Constantinople is at
the same time capital of both sec
ular and ecclesiastic empires."
Consequently the treaty of Sevres,
which reduced Turkish lands In
Europe and threatened the power of
the sultan, has aroused the ire of
the Mohammedan peoples. This fact
accounts for the recent Moham
medan uprisings in India, he con
tended. Dr. Josh' related the changes in
Hindu culture and social and po
litical life wrought by the invasion
of Islam centuries ago. Pure
Hinduism and Buddhism gave place
to the more militant creed of the
invaders. It became necessary to
marry Indian maidens at a tender
age to save them from Mohammedan
harems, and much or the ancient
Indian culture was obliterated.
Every Precaution Taken.
