This is the slogan selected last even ing out of the several thousand that were submitted In the rose festival con test, by the committee of five adver tising experts appointed by The Jour nal. William McMurray, of 269 East Third street, North, was the lucky man and the winner of The Journal's $15 prize. Mr. McMurray's slogan was numbered 20 In the list submitted and was chosen by the committee after a couple of hours' hard work. There were at least 100 slogans left after the others had been winnowed out from which it was necessary for the committee to select one a task far from easy. The prize slogan is regarded as being the best adapted, everything considered. to the uses of the festival association. It brings out strongly the point of the rose festival the roses themselves, and It expresses concisely the three delight- ful characteristics of Portland roses their fragrance, their unusual beauty EASY FOOD Beady For Instant Use Without Cooking. Almost everyone likes a cereal food of some kind at breakfast and supper, but the ordinary way of cooking cereals results In a pasty mass that is hard to digest, and Ir not properly digested, the raw mass goes down into the Intestinal tract where gas is generated and trouble follows. Everyone knows that good food prop erly digested keeps the body wall, while or even food of good quality not aigestea, kind of dls- LOOKING TOWARD HAR RIMAX. ftlnee ft became known that the Har- Hraan system purchased 4,000 feet of waterfront near Harriman, and 1.000 ores near Warrenton and Astoria, there Is a small flurry in real estate at those points.

A Chicago young lady writes that she suffered for years from Indigestion and dyspepsia from the use of food that was not suitable to her powers of di gestion.

It will be generally agreed that the last line is particularly apt in express ing the Portland situation that there are literally roses everywhere In the Rose City. Then In addition to these good points the slogan has a catchy swing and Jingle to it that carries it along splen didly and It is also well balanced. Mr. McMurray Is one of the prime movers in the rose festival, and is general passenger agent for the O It. & N. and the 8. P. At present he is spending a short vacation In New Hamp shire so that he has not yet learned of his good fortune In being the winner of The Journal prize. As every contribution to the slogan contest was received In The Journal office It was given a number and the name of the writer was given a corre sponding number and was sealed up. Tims when the Itulges came to look over the slogans there was no way of telling who the writer was until the decision had been made. Then when the prize had been decided the enve lopes were opened and on No. 20 was found Mr. McMurray's name. Tlie committee selected by The Jour nal to act In the matter was composed entirely of advertising experts. It in cluded A. Holtz, advertising manager for Meier & Franks, II. A. Little, ad vertising manager for Olds. Wortman & King, Miss Anna Shannon Monroe of the Monroe Advertising company, C. C. Chapman of the Chapman Advertising Bureau and Leo PertiUlon of the Chi cago Clothing company. These persons make a study of catchy advertising phrases and should know a good thing when they see It. Rut in spite of the good points in Mr. McMurray's slogan there were others that caught the eyes and the minds of members of the committee for nearly half an hour it was a serious question whether the prize should not go to Dr. H. J. Harris of 306 Grant street whose "Where Blows the Rose pos sessed the very strong merits of being dignified, short and catchy, and yet graceful. Neither motto mentioned Portland or Oregon but the commltteo suggests that in printing Mr. McMur ray's, If it Is finally accepted by the Rose Festival association, that It would bo advisable to print "Portland. Ore gon," underneath the words of the slogan. Two other slogans were selected for honorable mention by the committee "What a the matter with Portland? Hhe's all rose," which was one of the cleverest and best things sent In dur ing the contest and Charles N. Black's slogan. "The Call of the Roses." A straw vote of The Journal staff on the slogans showed the majority to be in 'favor of "Where Blows the Rose," al though the members of the telegraph department of the paper were unani mous in their choice of slogan 643 sent in by a young lady of Fossil, Oregon, which read; "Let roses bloom and Port land boom and everybody boost." Upon Mr. McMurray's return from his New Hampshire trip he will find The Journal's check for $15 waiting him as payment for the fcst Rose Festival slogan. lKANTl.M( I a i h j Hot Water Bottle $1.69 Do not expe this supply of Hot Water Bottles to last over a day at these prices.
