We have made a quiet but thorough canvas of the situation and ' 1 haro reason to feel quite certain that ; the cause of woman's suffrage will be j favorably , voted on today In the statu 'of Oregon. We shall not be disappoint f ed If we run behind In the city of , : Portland, but we confidently expect to ! make up more in the state at large than Jwe lose In thiso Uy. My 41 years. of I service In this cause is drawing to a close. . I wish especially to thank the '1 ' preta. the clergy, professional' men and me voters generally tor mcir lbsibibiius in this struggle for the freedom of the women of Oregon." v Mrs. Sarah A. Evans, chairman cam paign committee-Woman's club: - "The evtlook Is favorable, I think. I do not expect Multnomah county to carry, but X tMnk the vote against suffrage will be pared .down so much, that the strong PA HE ful repro ductions of solid ma hogany four f poster bed, on display in our show windows are now offered to you at a ; special price of $50.00 - apiece.

"I am very- sure of the strong-sentiment against granting equal suffrage. We have worked' to the best of our ability to down the amendment, but If we are defeated we will go down with colors flying, but we are hoping the men will be sensible and vote for the best inter ests of their state and nation." . ' Sepend oa Ken. Dr. Esther Pohl-Lovejoy, president of Everybody's Equal Suffrage league: "I am certain we .veill win, for I feel that the men of Oregon realize as never be fore the humiliating position the women of our slate : are ' placed In by being hemmed n--tn-alhatda,-i)y-stnte--whn allow their women to vote. I think the amendment will carry by a big majority, even in Multnomah county To be sure straw votes have sometimes , shown a majority-opposing ue, but I -do - not think the localities in which they were taken were average - ones. If we do fall, . however..we . wlJL starttomorrow to win two years hence." , .'.'' . Mrs. J. F. Bailey, president of associa tion opposed to suffrage: "I Still feel that 23,000 men are not going to de sert ua In two years. That was the ma jority which defeated suffrage two years ago, hence I feel very confident that the ballot Is not going to be thrust Upon us At this time." Miss Emma wold. president College Equal' Suffrage league: "Those who have been most deeply engaged in the fight are I think the least able to Judge of the outcome, because we have not oome Into contact with the opposition to any great extent It seems to me that the outlook is good, however, and I am hopeful. If we should fall do doubt the fight will be carried on. but probably by new blood as those who have worked In this campaign are very weary and will be glad to have others take up the work actively, '. " ' Antla An Bitter. Mrs. R. W. Lewis, member executive committee opposed to suffrage:- "It is very, hard to fight against people who are untrue,, and as for myself I must say that I ant disheartened - and ashamed of my sex. The manner In which .those favoring suffrage have gone about it to win their point has grounded my belief as an anti-suffragist mora firmly than ever. Their aggresslvness Is, I think, only a sample of what they will be If they ever get hold of the real thing in the way of the ballot " ' i Mrs. Henr. Waldo Coe, acting presi dent State Equal Suffrage league: "The outlook Is bright and encouraging. Out side of the encouragment we get from the suffrage workers themselves we are mush : encouraged .by the attitude of the men and that Is what will tell to day, you know. Many men who were antls at the last election have oome around to our way of thinking this' time. Then, too, I am sure we lost many votes two years ago by the property Ultima. The elimination of this, will. I think, help us materially. We can scarcely expeot to carry Portland. His tory shows Us that on account of or ganised vice, which Is always opposed to suffrage, an amendment to enfran chise women never carries in cities, If by any cjiance we should lose we wlU be ready to start in again tomorrow morning., Mrs. Gordon Voorhles, member exe cutive committee opposed to women suf frage: "I think we will be successful in ! voting down theJ amendment Of course -suffragists are Tnore given to exprelng their views than we are, thus it might seem that they are about DARING ACROBATS v , HAVE CHARMED LIFE V i .h. n i i k-.A.'.. v.. - O .- .'Ml Fans and Falls, eccenirlo acrobats at the Empress,, have an act which waa originated in a barn in Philadelphia, the tumbles, twists and turns of the vaude ville pair having been perfected by them after they had rigged up hbme-made trapeses made of j broomhandles and clothes line taken surreptitiously. when their trusting mothers were not In sight In real life the acrobats are Archie Falls and Frank Green, both Yankees. They have been on the stage for more thasli years and are listed among the Deal comeay tumDiers in me Business. In all their time before the publlo neither one has been injured, a record seldom equaled by vaudevllllst en gaged In such a haxardous act to sweep the state, but I think the counting of the votes will disclose an other phase to the question." Mrs. Millie Trumbull: "I think we are going to win. Suffrage has all the support it had before and in addition has the support of the politicians and of many others whom wo did not have before. If we don't win, we will start in at once to get It' next time. Bran Bath. Dear Mrs. Lee Will you please give directions tor .making a bran bath?

The final lecture la the Baumgardt series at the Lincoln high school was given last night Notwithstanding the many .otherarQUoo-Jin(L.llie. exciter ment due to election eve, the auditorium waawelt filled -and the audlenoe was taken on a word and picture trip to Ve nice, the City of Dreams. . Few cities afford greater opportunity for the artist and writer ' than this Pream City, and the leoture last night was illustrated with m views, executed In water color, giving hot Only a por trayal or Venice toaay, but also of Ve nice at-the- height of her glory, in the days of Enrico Dandola, Foscart and Fallen. In the course of the leoture Professor Baumgardt said: ' ,"Hardly could a more effective Uluo- tratlon be. found of the paramount influ-J afforded by Venice. Little did itf occur to refugees from the conquering hordes of Atllla in 451, when they drove their first pllesvon the mud banks of the Ad riatic, that they were laying foundaUons for a republlo destined to endure more than 1200 years.; Her Insular position, through the skill of her engineers, made Venice practically unassailable. From insignificance she rose to hold the proud dominion of the seas and had at one time S200 vesseds netting their owners 0 per cent Fler agents were stationed In every important city in Europe.

"The discovery of America ' and' the circumnavigation of Africa sounded the deathknell to all this greatness and lm perishable fame. The commercial equi librium of the world had been shaken. the Mediterranean teased to be the most Important commercial highway and be came instead a relatively unimportant Inland sea.

That our, rest;recreatlon, and amusement mustn't do aone oynaives, euner. But somehow we won t give these things serious attention. We use our busy hours with the utmost waste and economy;, our free tones we waste and alur and misuse any old way. Yet they are the ones from which we must get all our reserves of health and strength, our breadth of culture, and the- refresh ment and stimulus of' new experiences and social intercourse, ; v ' When we gulp our breakfast down in a hurry, don't give ourselves time to swallow more ' than a hot drink at a soda fountain for lunch, and "make out' with "something from the delicat essen store for dinner, washed ' down with a cup of tea, 'We are doing things by halves, end we'll pay for it with failure in the end, quite as surely as though it were our business we were neglecting.''''-,' ;':"':' ''.'; .There are so 'many ways of doing it we cut out the dally walk t dawdle through it, instead of moving cleanly and alertly; or when we don't -take enough sleep; or when we are constant ly dressing our. working problems into what should be our carefree time; or when we refuse a chance for a pleasant outing because wo think we can't man age-it,-when' bit Tf careful planning would easily make the opportunity in these and many other ways we are do lng things b halves, r ; , Don't do it!
