Commencing on Thursday morning, December

the Depot-Morrison and Hawthorne Avenue lines
and will be placed on the Twenty-third street line
at a later date. This style of cars is operated very
successfully in eastern cities and is similar in con
struction to the cars now running on Twenty-third
street and Mount Scott lines, except that the plat
forms are much larger, the rear platform bemg di
vided for EXIT and ENTRANCE, while the front
platform is used for exit only. '
By the installation of this type of car, transpor
tation will be more regular, comfortable and safer
than at present; more regular because of the syste
matic arrangement of entrance and exit passages,
eliminating confusion and lessening the time re
quired for stops; more comfortable because of the
size of the car and the fact that the conductor
is not compelled, in collecting fares, to pass fre
quently.jhrough the car to the annoyance of the
passengers; safer because the conductor will remain
on the rear platform and thus prevent accidents

Eilers Piano House in their Recital Hall, Friday evening, De
cember 11, at 8:30 o'clock, with Miss Kathleen Lawler, soprano;
Mr. Charles E. Couture, tenor, and Mr. Dom J. Zan, baritone,

known to Portland music lovers, to need special mention. Mr.
Zan has delighted many audiences in Portland, and his splendid
baritone voice is always encored whenever he appears. Mr.
Couture, while a comparative stranger to Portland, has appeared
several times, and has fairly carried his audiences off their feet
with his beautiful tenor. ,,.,..,
A superb Steck Themodist-Metrostyle Pianola Piano will be
used for the occasion, and Mr. Louis P. Bruse will act as ac
companist, also rendering several choice selections during the
evening.
These recitals will be given every Friday evening, and all
are cordially invited. To, avoid overcrowding, however, admis
sion will be by reserved seat ticket only.
By calling at our store at any time before Friday evening
two complimentary tickets, each good for one reserved seat,
may be secured.
