However, More People Than
Ever Before Patronized the
Stores Earlier This Year-
Due to Efforts of League.
BISHOP GREETS
rW CHILDREN
Asks Boys and Girls to Make
Offering for Newsboys'
Cot.
The "early shopping cry," designed to
relieve the store Clerk of the nerve
ehatterlng eleventh hour rush and also
to sav the shopper from the- dan serous
crashes in vogue during years past, ha
been more effective, this year than at
any time previous, in, the opinion of of
ficers of the consumers league. and
store managers. .
Early in' the season the consumers'
league opened its annual campaign to
awaken the Shopper to the need of
starting early. " Posters were sent out
and displayed in various Btorea. The
league had the hearty; encouragement
and cooperation of the stored in their
work. Some of them offered special
inducements to early shoppers and prac
tically all or them; called the attention
of their patrons to the advisability of
buying at a time when there was not an
urgent need for' making a hurried se
lection and when the clerks could devote
more attention to patrons.
: Stores Aided Campaign. ' :
1 am positive that the league has
accomplished more this year with the
early shopping -campaign than at any
. previous time" declared Mrs. H. R. Tal
hot, president of tho organization -yesterday,
"We have had the unreserved
aid , of the , store managements, and I
know people are learning the advantages
of early buying."
Clerks this year approached the last
days of the Christmas buying in better
physical condition andsare well prepared
to withstand the final crush which
comes today and will come every year,
despite ail of the educational work of
the league and stores. Moist of these
buyers come from the laboring classes,
at least those whose funds are not so
plentiful that they can lay by a sum of
money for .Christmas purposes.? Many
of them received their checks or pay
envelopes this afternoon or ; evening
and a rush on the part of the women to
the stores follows.
Again, in the crowd thronging stores
and streets today you will find those
who had forgotten some person or per
sons and who Join . the ' current enter
ing and leaving the stores,, muttering
Imprecations on their own Carelessness.
1 Christmas atmosphere Everywhere.
In another class there is the Inevi
table procrastlnator, the person who
will not complete his or her buying un
til the last moment Still another ele
ment is the harried business man, who
has finally torn himself away from of
fice cares to snatch something for wife
and family. Usually he does not take
long to decide what he .wants and he
does not haggle about prices. The tired
clerk summons a smile for him. ,
The Christmas atmosphere has been
plain upon Portland streets for at least
two weeks, but today it fairly bursts
upon one in the crowded sidewalks, and ;
the street cars fined to the vestibules
at all hours of the day. The street
merchant's daring the police under a de
cision Of , the municipal court which
permits them to remain in one spot for
half an hour ere also displaying their
wares from cart and box, disposing of
wreaths, flowers, toys, tinsel and other
articles of the season. ,
Here and there can be seen a father
toiling under the burden of a Christ
mas tree, picked up around Front and
First streets, and wearing a smile at the
thought, of the Christmas Joys of the lit
tle ones, Which dissipates any contem
plation of the spectacle he presents.
Down in the market district of the
' town, there is also the rash of- prepara
tion for the Christmas' observance. The
markets have hung out their tempting
arrays of turkeys and holiday meats and
have put up decorations of tho seasons.
Those who have been wise enough or
fortunate enough to care for the gift
purchasing earlier are tranquilly In
. specting the fowl and meats, tho Christ
mas dinner their only remaining .care.
' Turkeys are, of course, the piece de re
sistance Of the average Christmas din
ner, but they come rather high and
chickens are popular. One market dis
plays a number of possums at f 3 each
and is selling a number of these south
ern delicacies, ,"

GRANT DECLINES T0
MEET1 PROPERTY OWNERS
City .Attorney Frank Grant yesterday
afternoon submitted a letter to the
street committee of the , city council,
declining to .confer with. Karl street
property owners, in accordance 'with the
direction of the city council, in an ef
fort to reach a compromise in the mat
ter of a near delinquent street, assess
ment )is w::V;7v'- h '' i
Karl street was ' improved from Mil
waukee street to East Twentieth street
nearly seven years ago and the prop?
erty owners refused to pay their assess
ments. A. local attorney, noted for his
obstructionists tactics against public
improvement!!, .has been . fighting the
assessment in . the courts. '. ; r f. '
Some of the property owners 'wanted
to compromise by paying, 75 per cent
of the assessment but the attorney only
offered, on behalf of his clients, to pay
30 per cent,..: The offer was' made to
City t Attorney .'Grant I In his , letter to
the committee the city attorney said it
would not be In accordance with the
code of his profession to ignore the com
munication . of a fellow attorney and
to . confer with that ; attorney's clients
without his permission. The councllmen
on the street committee dldn t appear to
be -much impressed with such .viewa
However, they accepted Mr. Grant's ex
cuse, but decided to delegate' a man
from the city engineer's office to make
overtures to the property owners.
Tho eamnala-n for . the Bale of Red
Cross seals is ending today In a burst
of Unprecedented, enthusiasm. From
booths in department stores ; and busi
ness buildings come reports of greater
sale than on any previous Christmas
day. The Christmas spirit has appar
ently been the impulse prompting r-
SDOnsai to the annnala mnAn thronrh av.
eral weeks by Portland women asking
aid In the effort to raise nyoney 'ith
which to combat consumption in Ore
gon. Hopes are entertained that the to
tal of sales may ultimately reach to
ward tho desired goal of $10,000.
The members of the Visiting Nurse
association, which directs the spending
of the money raised, feel very grateful
to tho women who- during the campaign
have sacrificed time and convenience
and have, contributed effective effort
toward the success of the cause. ; v
- Many words of appreciation are ex
pressed particularly because of the good
work accomplished by Mrs. I H. Tarp
ley who, unassisted, has had charge of
the publicity features of tho campaign.
This duty has entailed not only a daily
resume of ' progress for local papers,
but has involved no small amount of
planning' for features that would In
crease public favor for and understand
ing of the purposes of anti-tuberculisis
fight in which the Red Cross seals are
called "bulleta" , . .
v Thousands of Jted Cross seals have
been sold by Alice Lloyd and Grace
Cameron. In an hour yeeterday at
Swetland's Miss Cameron sold 2600
seals. The workers m tho booths have
won appreciation for their - enterprise
and faithfulness. Although the big sale
ends today,- stamps may be bought for
holiday week at 82 H Third street where

"THE BURGOMASTER"
TUNEFULAS
"The Burgomaster," tuneful and
melodious aa of yore, with a hew song
or two added to the galaxy and upbol
stored somewhat, according to modern
requirements by clever Gus Weinberg,
returned to Portland last night for
four days sojourn at the Helllg. .
Weinberg, as the burgomaster, the
music and a few good supports form
the mainstay of the piece, the chorus
being somewhat below the standard set
for Helllg musical attractions and with
a "number of members who have for
gotten how to smile or have become
rather negligent over this decided show
girl asset. . Weinberg is ubiquitous, as
enthusiastic , as . he was when he first
made his entrance with the same at
traction and with the same personal
charm to enhance the character he
portrays. His originality crops , forth
every few minutes with self-manufae-tured
and localized 1 witticisms, v Prob-
aoiy no never boasted of bis vocal
ability, but he uses his chords to the
best effect' - ? ..
Julia Curtis has a voice of no car-
tlctdar strength, but' of peculiar charm
and her songs well entertained the au
dience, aa did in fact the .entire pro
duction. Miss Curtis with "I Love
You," drew the plaudits of the even

ATTORNEYS ASK THAT
FINES BE SET ASIDE
A few attorneys practicing hi the mu
nlcipal court have joined in asking the
: circuit court to allow them a. writ of
review in several cases in the lower
court In which they seek to overthrow
fines and sentences imposed. - This ac
tion Is taken upon the ground that no
complaints have been filed against the
persons accused. The charter provides
that complaints shall issue against all
persons - brought before the municipal
' court. The work there has been so heaw
that the city attorney has been unable'
to make complaints In each case. .
Attorneys M. O. Wilklns and H. C.
King have been active in arranging the
suit for the writ of review. They have
gone over all: records, taking" the name
where a fine of more than $50 was im
posed. They propose to have the caso
reheard and say they have the law that
will cause the city to turn this amount
back to the person so fined. They say
they have claims in such cases aggre-
- gating $10,000. The request for a writ
of review is based upon the fine given
Augustus Franso.
Considerable criticism has been made
about the methods used by Attornevs
Wilklns and King In obtaining the
names. Nicholas Beutgen, clerk of the
municipal court refused Wilklns access
to the books, whereupon Wilklns
charged the clerk with being afraid to
have his books examined. There are
many minor cases in the municipal court
, In which it is deemed needless to file
complaints and the great majority of
attorneys practicing there are satisfied
with the old way of filing the com
plaint on the judge's docket
