last night and today and made the city's
, downtown region hum and vibrate with
excitement. .
Nearly every delegation In the city,
however small, did Its beet to outrival
all others In the amount of nolae and
lauthter-provoklnir stunts. There were
many novel features. Maude, the Idaho
inula, did her ahare. The "poppy pick-
' fa" from Los Angeles and southern
California, created some excitement.
Seattle. Tacoma and Everett held up
Puget aound'a end of the noise. Seattle
especially was demonstrative, advertis
ing her, Fotlatoh celebration in all quar
ter. Ban Tranclsco was a noisy and
fun-making contender. The delegations
from the far southeast were lusty mem
bers of the throng. And as for the
outbwest, Oklahoma, Texas. New Mex
ico and Arixona were In evidence.
Chicago Elks were active on the
"itreeta, while those from New ' York,
Boaton. Philadelphia, and the New Eng
land states did everything possible to
make themselves heard. Middle western
brethren Contributed to the general up
roar, each seemingly voicing a different

HOSTS DELIGHTED;
PORTLAND WINS
ELKDOM'S PRAISE

! raised a million dollars to entertain us
on. I tell 'you, and I mean it, every
word of It. that Portland haa in every
' way outdone any Elks' convention city
In the last 10 years.
"Comparisons are odious, but they
' would not be to Portland. Not one of
the grand lodge cities in the last 10
years could compare in reception or
(entertainment, or in the hearty, whole
souled, make-you-feel-rlght-at-home kind
of welcome you people have given us. It
, has been marvelous. To tell the truth,
we were not expecting a great deal
away out here at the end of the United
States, but you have given us the sur-
. prise of our Uvea.
Splendid Eleotrio Parade.
. "I have never seen anything anywhere
that In splendor and beauty could equal
the electric parade the other night. It
waa a rare treat. . I want to say that
the man who produced the electric light
effects that brought out the colors on
those floats was a real artist, and I
know what I am talking about, for I am
In the electrical business in Phlladel-
' phis, myself. Moreover, I waa in charge
of the electrical feature of the enter
tainment of the Elks when they had
their convention in Philadelphia, but we
had nothing that could compare to this.
; ."Portland Is really a great city.
Moreover, this is a wonderful country
yon-have out here. It's the greatest
country in the world, that's what it is."
John P. Sullivan, grand exalted ruler
of the Elks, who will yield his gavel as
'the last act of the convention to his
auccessor, Thomas B. Mills, and retire
inta. the trcie of past grand exalted
, rulers, is another high El it who hju nic
things to say of Portland.
"My onjy regret," said Mr. Sullivan,

"is that we can't have our grand lodge
here ever year. If it depended on my
vote, I'd cast a perpetual ballot for
Portland. This city has certainly mads
great impression on the Elks.'
James R Nicholson. gTand esquire,
who led today's great Elk parade, would
like to live in Portland If he couldn't
live in Boston, which is now his hom
city.
We appreciate Portland s hospitality
Immensely," said Mr. Nicholson. "Port
land has nothing to fear from compari
son with other grand lodge oltles. In
every respect, I think, except in its
distance from the east, Portland has
the advantage over every other town
where the Elks have met. The summer
climate here Is a treat."
John J. Faulkner, city controller and
commissioner of public works of East
St. Louis, 111., who was elected grand
trustee of the Elks by the grand lodge
Tuesday, is another Elk who Is mightily
glad he came to Portland.
Entertainment Galore.
"I wouldn't have missed this trip for
two years of my life," said Mr. Faulk
ner. "Portland is a wonderful city,
and the hospitality of her people has
warmed the heart of every Elk to come
here. Portland has set a mark for
convention hospitality and entertain
ment that will make succeeding cities
hustle to keep pace with."
I never saw anything like it," said

What Correspondents Bay.
Without exception, the same strain
has run through the reports sent to
their home papers by visiting news
paper correspondents from oitlea all
over the United States. "Portland has
handled this convention better than
any city that ever naa an kiks conven
tion," wrote one newspaper man.
"Oh, you Portland! Atlantic City isn't
In It with what they are doing for the
Elks here," wrote another one. While a
third, who writes for a big newspaper
in an Atlantic seaboard city, said that
Portland had won 16,000,000 In free ad
vertising through its hospitality to the
Elks.
By all the visiting writers, the Port
land convention is hailed as a remark-
htble success.

The building of this railroad is to solve

How to Keep Face
Young and Attractive
(National Hygienic Review)
The way to ward off old age Is not
to fear It, not to allow one'a self to be
oppressed by the dread of advancing
years. Use only legitimate preventives
and avoid trying experiments with prep
arations not endorsed by physicians. An
entirely safe and very effective way
to keep the complexion young look
ing and beautiful is to apply ordinary
mercollzed wax at bedtime, using it like
cold cream, washing it off In the morn
ing. This gradually absorbs the withered
faded cuticle, which is replaced by the
more youthful, pink-tinted underskln.
One ounce of this wax, to be had at any
drug store, is enough to completely re
juvenate a worn-out complexion.
Wrinkles and flabblness of cheek and
ohin, the first signs of advancing age,
may be lessened by a simple, harmless
preparation made by dissolving an ounce
of powdered saxollte In a half pint witch
har.el. It is used as a face bath.
A SUMMER RESORT THAT DOM
INATES the bias traveler ai well
as it does the average stay-at-home
through its sheer merit of beauty and
comfort. It embodies many features,
exclusively new. It is as different
from the ordinary resort as its Tent
City differs from the Indian camp of
half a century ago.
