Mrs. Casslus Miller renderen two Interesting readings. Then fol lowed a most unique and delightful number, a "Kitchen Symphony," un der direction of Mrs. Reynolds and presented by an orchestra of twelve members. These were young women attractively dressed in white, with pink aprons and caps, and their mu sical instruments were ordinary kitchen utensils. Perhaps few of the audience realized that real harmony could be obtained from fire shovels, tin covers, chopping bowl, but ter jars, bottles and water glasses, but the musicians dem onstrated their skill on these Instru ments which were tuned to an exact pitch and rendered a selection that carried the house by. storm. Lianorate refreshments were served inthe dining room, presided over by members of Alpha chapter. who proved their excellent culinary successes in the delicious viands set forth. Then followed the pleasant social period that to all such affairs Is the happiest time of all. Groups settled In corners chatting, and oth ers gathered around card tables and were soon deep In the intricacies of that sport. Later In the evening Mr Frank Jordan tuned his violin while Mrs. Dewey Sackett presided at the piano, and led by Stuart Saunders and Mrs. Ella Mills, the old Virginia Reel, ever dear to the hearts of young and old alike, started dancing that lasted until a late hour.

CHILDREN 15 cents MAT.-, EVENING iJ One Salary Only For Gov. Olcott Dating from the time when ' he took the oath of office as governor of Oregon, Ben W. Olcott has re nounced the salary of $4500 a year that goes with the office of secre tary of state and will decline to ac cept two salaries while serving in the double capacity of -the state's two highest public positions. If by any Interpretation of the Oregon constitution he can resign the office of secretary of state but continue as chlef"W(ecutive he will relinquish the former and appoint a new secretary Governor Olcott made known his position on these questions and an nounced that ho will ask Attorney General Brown if there Is any way In which the question of whether or not he can resign the secretary ship can be gotten into the courts for adjudication. Should the courts hold that Mr. Olcott Is governor. In fact he would have the power to resign the secretaryship and appoint his successor In that office without jeop- radizng his position as governor. When Mr. Olcott automatically be came governor by the death of Gov ernor Wlthycombe he was of the opinion that his tenure of office as governor would terminate with the election and qualification of his suc cessor at the next general election, which will fall In November, 1920 Some of the most learned lawyers in Salem hold different opinions and as sert that Olcott will hold thru the entire unexpired term of Governor Wlthycombe. This question Is in volved with the question of his pow er to resign as secretary of state which Governor Olcott wishes to have adjudicated lu court. Several law yers believe the attorney general will hold that no way exists to place the question up to the courts until It can be presented In connection with the question of whether or not the gallot at the election of 1920 shall provide for the election of a gover nor. At that time, should Mr. Ol cott be held governor In fact he would then be free to quit the office of secretary of state and appoint his successor In that office. . Regardless of what the legal opin ion Is, Governor Olcott will renounce the salary of secretary of state, $4, 500 a year, and while serving in the two offices, will accept only the $5000 annually paid the governor. In making this announcement he only makes the reservation that the money may be held 'for use In con nection with paying the expenses of the secretary Of state's office, where it may be needed because of new duties placed upon that office by tho recent legislature. "It is not my desire to serve both as secretary of state and as gov ernor," Mr. Olcott said, "and I want an early decision oif the question whether I can resign vas secretary of state and appoint my successor. This Is desirable for several reasons. One is that the office of. 'governor pre - sents sufficient duties to occupy all of the attention of one man. Another reason Is that the counsel of the third man is needed on the state board of control. Particularly will this be true because of work added to the board's duties by the last legisla ture In connection with the recon struction program, if the $5,000,000 reconstruction landing bin is passed by the people. This bill delegates to the board of control authority to CHROME MINERS' LOSSES AIUUSTKI) A bill was recently passed by Con gress authorizing the Secretary of th'ej Interior "to adjust, liquidate, and pay such net losses as have been suffered by any person, firm, or cor poration, by reason of producing or preparing to produce, either manga nese, chrome, pyrites, or tungsten in compliance with the request or de mand of the Department of the In terior, the War Industries Board, the War Trade Board, the Shipping Board, or the Emergency Fleet Cor poration to supply the urgent needs of the Nation in the prosecution of the war."
