Miss I C. Cecil, who bangs from ins
top of 17-story building a on tba narrow
' ledge of a swinging scaffold and paints
. pictures and novelty teilrsi In the ad
vertising line, is decorating the unem
ployed wal i of nigh Portland structures
, to the great consternation of natives.
8be enjoys the work and has adopted It
as her life calling. '
. Slgfet Drew Biff Crowds.
Hiss Cecil, in company, with three
sign-painters of the male . persuasion
, started Friday afternoon to improve the
scenlo effect of the city of Portland by
painting a monstrous picture on the slds
tot an office bu lifting on ' Washington
street, iue ouuaing is not very nign,
Just six stories, but that's plenty. Many
people were attracted by the unusual
sight and stopped to eomment upon It.
They were very doubtful as to toe au
thenticity or correctness of their own
' eyesight ' '-'
"X guess Its easy t Nltrf aaidone
wise bystander and up-gaser. t"l guess
J've been around some mvself ; they
on't work no stunts like that oft on
me." , , - ,
"Sure" Interrupted another. "I've seen
that before. It's all a ut up Job for an
advertising gag. That's no woman; Just

a man in woman's clothes. X oaa tell by
tha way -she works." .

Getting curious, a representative of
The Journal took 4 camera and went op
to Investigate; got right close to It and
interviewed It And It waa a real, live
woman, pretty rood looking, too, - and
she wore a peek-a-boo shirtwaist Miss
Cecil was very willing to be Interviewed
as that Is part of hen business. Her
work. Is la the advertising line, as sne
very modestly admits.
Miss Cecil began her career as a sign
painter about -four years .ago in the
city of Chicago. At the time it waa Cer
tainly a unique advertising scheme as
the orowde thronged in the streets be
low to- witness the woman dangling in
mld-alr from the roof of a sky-scraper.
The police were called out to clear the
streets.

of going Into sign-painting. I don't mind
high 'buildings and have grown quite
used to these scaffolds swinging hun
dreds of feet above the busv streets. I
do It for the money there Is la It and
am paid for the advertising it brings the
Arm for which I work."
. Miss Ceoil perhape In the past few
days has caused more staid and con
servative buslnese men to "rubber"
until their oollare chafed the backs of
their .necks, and has been more In the
public eye than any woman who has
visited Portland for many a day.

Manarer H. CVBoWera of the Portland
hotel . announced yesterday . that . he
would be glad to adopt the scheme pro
posed by The Journal In setting forth
ths merits of the Bull Run water. For
many years the Portland ran a oeacrip
tloa of a paragraph about Bull Run
water upon Its menu cards. - When the

to sdvertlse the city, and will have th
description placed on the menu cr.ls.
Otto Metsrhan of the Imperial bntcl
was also enthuelaatlo over the prot-ct,
and promised to have placards print.-1
and placed above the drinking fountxi'i
In the hotel lobby and In each of the
rooms telling of the wonders of Lull
Run water..
"There is seldom a day pass." sai l
Mr, Metschan, "that somebody does not
remark' upon the purity and tatinr
qualities of the water. "We reran lv
filaced a aew drinking fountain In the
obby of the hotel, and hundreds tf po.
pie use It svsry day. BtranKers who
are not guests of the hotel come in Jtmt
to get a drink of water, and l?ava at
lafled In the knowledge that they need
have no- fear of . baa teeults coming
from their drink. " . .
"Easterners staying at the hotel al
waye Inquire about the water, end want
to know whether we have a privets well
beneath-the hotel from which we get
our drinking eunply." m
Other hotels have promised to do all
they can to advertise the water. Depart,
ment stores and other places where pub
llo drinking fountains are In use will
probably take up ,hs movement and
have a card placedabove the fountains
telling the drinkerthat Bull Run water
only is used at that particular fountain. .
