relvet."
- Dr. Straton came to Oregon last July.
He lectured at the Chautauua, and dur
ing the laat two Sundaya in July and
the month of August filled the pulpit
of his -warm friend, Rev. i. Whltcomb
Brougher. in the White Temple. ,
He kept hla eyes open. Dr. Brougher
and other enthusiastic Oregonlana took
him around a little, ahowed him tho
cherries on tbe Webb farm, the view
from Council Crest tha busy Portland
harbor. He discovered how the grate
ful green of the flra on the hillsides
made for rest and coolness in summer,
and took Dr. Brougher's word and tho
report of the average mean winter tem
perature aa furnished by the weather
bureau to show that tho winter climate
la unsurpassed.
Dr. Straton waa born in Indiana. Ha
waa educated and grew up in the south.
He had been paator of the Second Bap
tist church In Chicago, and Is now call
ins; Baltimore his homo. He felt that
so fas as America la concerned ho
waa something of a cosmopolite. Ho
knew that neither the south nor the At
lantic coast nor the middle weat could
compare with what he found In Oregon.
80 when he went back to Baltimore at
the close of hla vacation hero he wrote
an article for the Baltimore American,
telling something of the beauties of
Oregon and describing in modest enough
terms what he had seen here.

If you have read E. W. Howe'a "Daily
Notes of a Trip Around the World" you
wm unaeratana wny miss Aiateei wowe,
the "Information Bureau" of that de
lightful work haa aecured $500 for an
article written about Oregon. Hiss
Howe won the aecond prise in tho Com
mercial club contest because of her ex
ceptionally brilliant style of writing,
an inherent gift of description and a
most original and entertaining narra
tive element in her work.
It is simply another Instance of the
Howe family genlua cropping out. Her
father, E. W. Howe, is the editor of the
Atchison Qlobe and the author of "The
Btory of a Kansas Town," as well aa
the "Dally Notes," and some other
equally entertaining books. Miss Howe,
although born in Atchison and edu
cated In Washington, where she gradu
ated three years ago from Mount Ver
non seminary, ia the most enthustaatlo
Oregonlan in the state. She recently
returned from a trip around 'the world,
and in spite of the fact that with her
father she visited every city of Im
portance In both - hemispheres, she la
more enthusiastic than aver over Port
land. - -
In view of her intense admiration for
Portland and Oregon, It is not unnatural
that aha should have been able to have
written the $500 article descriptive of
Portland. It waa a fortunate combina
tion of native literary talent and en
thusiasm that won for her the . prize;
