Little Janle Hall, the 5 year old daughter of Attorney John H. Hall and Mrs. Hall of 866 Lovejoy street, reads The Journal. Not that she reads her self yet, but her mother reads It for her, reading of course those bits of news that would Interest a pretty little miss about to celebrate her fifth Chirstmas. Miss Janle has heard with unceasing Interest the preparations now being made to provide a Merry Christmas for a few of the unfortunates of Portland, She has heard of The Journal relief fund and the efforts being made to fill hun gry mouths on Christmas day and give toys and clothing to little children whom Santa. Claus seems once In awhile to forget. Not that Santa does it in other Christmas and gave shelter first to a foundling child, and then decided she must also furnish a home to some homeless woman, chronicled success in her mission yesterday: "I am so happy I must tell you. I found what I knew existed some place a woman of 50 yeara. broken physically, mentally (tem porarily) and financially, a stranger In our city, and my home and my love Is her Christmas; but mine is greater, the chance to help. Fund Bears Witness. - And in many ways the kindly response of Portland people to the petitions of want have exceeded any year preceding. The Christmas stocking fund bears wit ness. The merchants who have packed dozens and carried them to families of children; the students of Jefferson high school, and of Holladay school's seventh grade, who have taken help to many of the needy: the generous men and wo men who. ha"ve devoted their time for nearly three days, first in determining, then supplying, needs the service of these and many others, though it does not show In the 'listing of contributions.

Dellverymen ate working overtime to have all the Christmas gifts, a ad the viands for to morrow's -big dinner delivered before nightfall. In thousands of homes Christmas trees loaded down with presents await only the lighting of candles tonight and tomorrow. Activity is particularly marked a'mong the Arlous charitable organizations, who guided by the golden rule or nnn wnose natal day Is cele brated tomorrow, are bending every nerve ana bii ineir resources to the end that the more unfortunate of Portland's population will be fed, clothed, and givea a real ennstmas treat. ..Poor Provided Tor. .. -j : Weeks ago they began to collect foods, funl, money and clothes with the view of making sure that no needy per son.' hv- the ' city should go 1 without Christinas cheer. The Portland Commons. Salvation Army, and Volunteers of America have led ' in this work. Today and tomorrow 0.A.C; CADET BAND 3 Enthusiastic Audience. Hears Concert at Washington High School, It was a very pleasing concert that the Oregon Agricultural college cadrt band gave at the Washington high school auditorium last night. Owing to the Christmas rush, the audience was not as large as it should have been, but those present certainly displayed enthu siasm. Applause was spontaneous and encores were numerous. The. band is directed by H. I Beard, of the college faculty, and the fact that such works as "Poet and Peasant," excerpts from "KIgoletto" and other big numbers were played in excellent style, showed that the band has been rehearsing Industriously and effective ly. The fact that tbo organization sel dom retains any individual member longer tnan four years makes Its bril liant work all the more remarkable and praiseworthy, although of course qultj a few of the boys come to the colleue with some musical training. The college has two bands, a senior and a junior, the members of the senior organization being drafted from the Junior when ripe for the promotion. One feature par ticularly noteworthy was.the aplendld military bearing and discipline. On this tour the band presents two soloists, Ross Johnson, tenpr.fend O. w. James, tuba. Mr. Johnsoar Is the possessor of a beautiful voice of the true lyric quality, velvety and even throughout, and he sang with, perfect ease and fine expression. Few tenors heard in Portland for a long time have been more pleasing. Mr. James played tiie tuba with the ease of one perform ing on a cornet, his cadence being clean cut and well balanced. Tonight the band plays at Hood River, tomorrow night at La Grande, Friday night at Enterprise, Saturday night at Wallowa, Monday night at Pendleton, Tuesday night at Heppner, Wednesday night, Dec. 81, at The Dalles, Thursday night, Jan. 1, at Oregon City, and Friday night, Jan. 2, at Rllverton. they will feed thousands of people and hundreds of children will have them to thank for a "Merry Christmas," something they otherwise wuld not enjoy. Nor will the prisoners in the Jails be forgotten. Today the Portland Commons is ship ping out 360 Christmas ' boxes to tne prisoners at the state penitentiary at Salem; 160 boxes for distribution among the inmates of the county Jail; 76 to Kelly Butte; 80 to the Llnnton rock pile, and a score or more to the city jail. Each box contains cakes, fruit, nuts, candy and a book,' and Is valued at more than a dollar. Salvation Army Distributes Baskets. At the Salvation Army headquarters on Ankeny street, near First, Adjutants Whitney and Genge ure distributing ap proximately 300 baskets of foods for families, whose needs have come to the attention of the army. Each basket con tains a chicken, canned goods, butter, tea. sugar, coffee, bread, etc. The cost of the chickens alone was $200. The Volunteers of America are like wise busy at their mlBslon on Ankeny, near Fifth. . Major Jessie Starks has 266 family baskets which are being distributed among the needy poor. Each basket loaded with everything, from chickens to celery, cost $2.60, and contains all the things necessary for a Christmas ' dinner. ; But the good work does not cease here. Many families without fuel will find It In their dooryards tomorrow delivered by Santa Claus via organized charity. Overdue rents will be paid, and persons in need of material com forts such as clothes, will receive them, j Hundreds to Dine Pres. In addition hundreds of men and fam-1 illes will be treated to big dinners free, j W. Q. McLaren of the Portland Com mons is planning to feed no loss than 1200 men at the Commons headquarters. Front and Burnslde, beginning at 8 o'clock in the afternoon, and continuing until midnight, or as long aa a hungry man is in line. From 12 noon until S o'clock arrange ments have been made to serve a free dinner to the women and children of 260 families at the Commons building. This dinner Is to be given by the Al bertlna Kerr Nursery home, and is the third annual affair. Karrlman Cluh to Peed Many, To supply all them with food, 160 turkeys and D70 pounds of meat, not counting large quantities of vegetables and fruits, have been procured. The O.-W. R. & N. will also extend Christmas tiheer to the hungry and homeless. Beginning at 9:30 in the morning and extending into the after noon free meals will be served at the Ash street dock and it is estimated that fully 1700 men will be fed. Many other godd things have been arranged for the enjoyment of the 'Im poverished and unfortunate, both by or ganizations and Individuals. Every ef fort has been made to make it as near truly "Merry Christmas" as possible, and apparently none will have been overlooked.
