"Woman's Press CInb.
The members of the Woman's Press
club feel that Wednesday night's meet
ing was one of the most valuable it
has been their privilege to enjoy.
. Mrs. Alice Ogdeh told In an amusing
way her experiences In placing manu
scripts. William Bittle Wells then gave In
a vifid, forceful way his practical and
helpful Ideas on "Marketing Our
Products."
He said part of the "A. B. C." of pre
paring manuscripts,, the "A" is to pre
sent them in a professional way, that
is use typewritten sheets, 84 Inches
by 6 inches high, that' they may fit
the linotype case.
The first sentence or page of a
manuscript is invariably the index of
the story to follow. I
To succeed, one should be systematic, I
carefully consider what each editor
desires. To make money by writing,
take up eight or ten different lines,
for Instance, practical business ar
ticles, farm magazine subjects, west
ern stuff, and give a new garb, or fresh
view point to some old, hackneyed sub
ject. - Simplicity in telling stories is
essential. One must prepare the mind
for writing and then write the subject
out, giving place to new Ideas, which
will come faster and faster. "Writing
is all inspiration, when one is Inspired,
. tbey the impulse, do not let the
thoughts escape. Somewhere, some
how, all will attain the ideal of self
realization. Miss Loia Bain, who is a successful
photo-play writer, gave a fine, helpful
pftper on the subject, "The Photo-play:
Sources of Material."
She is convinced that the photo-play
Is a permanent thing, but the one and
two reel production will become the
standard.
- -Miss Bain says in writing them
one should reflect life as it 1.
In Imagination lies the appeal of the
film. Cultivate the ability to grasp
the material all about. Never throw
off alertness.
' Analyze every laugh, study every
face. of Interest.
; Miss Bain gave the club a glimpse
of her note book headings and her
rnethod of criticising her own manu
script. It was unusually helpful.
Miss Alya French and Miss Leta
Dee "were appointed to assist in selling
candy at the Federation vaudeville.
The Press club Is to give an entertain

PERSONAL MENTION
finds Portland Much Changed
O. P. Shoemaker, who" has Just re
tired as postmaster at Newport, Is In
Portland today for the first time In 12
years. Naturally, he finds many
changes, as he left the city before
the Lewis and Clark exposition. "The
greatest Changes are in the downtown
section," he said this morning, "but 1
&m not particularly surprised, as I
have kept abreast of progress in Port- i
land through the newspapers." Mr.
Shoemaker anticipates one of the great
est summer seasons in Newport his
tory. "People have already begun to
inquire for cottages and the outlook
is bright for a larger number than
ever before of aummef visitors. New
port is getting to be a winter resort,
too, for we have had double the winter
colony this, year that we had last."
Mr. Shoemaker Is engaged in the news '
business. He Was postmaster for four
year3, and previous to receiving his
appointment, assistant postmaster fer
over three years.

T OF REAL FUN
GREETS AUDIENCE AT
HEILIG IN 14 FOLLIES
Plenty of Singing and Danc
ing and Burlesque Present
edin Varied Production,
A riot of fun ana a forest of legs,
Mr. iHoMan Zlegfeld's celebrated Fol
lies for 1914,' not sd long out of NeW
Tork, opened a three days engage
ment at the local opera house last
night 'and pleased "the townspeople
mightily. " "
Those who forgot thelf opera glasses
Will khotf better hext time: those who
expected a plot Will know betted next
time; those who didn't believe Bert
Williams Is one of the funniest men in
America will know better next time;
those who doubted the existence Of
pulchritudinous choruses will know
better next time; and so on, et tu and
etral.
There are only two acts but the
scenes change with such ' startling
rapidity that it is almost impossible
to follow the program; And the cos
tumes change with every scene.
There are lots of songs, lots of
dancing, lots of excellent
Th music of the Follies is not of the
patricUlariy catchy kind but this
fault, if it is a fault, is more than
compensated by the revelry of the
piece's threa comedians.
First of all is the incomparable Bert
Williams, a little stouter than of yore,
but still original and inimitable. Then
mere is Ieon Errol, who Once called
Portland his home and who Staged the
production. And lastly but not least
ly Ed Wynn whose bubbling mon
ologues bring ripple after ripple Qf
laugmer. , - 4
Williams and Errol play opposite
each other In several burlesque scenes
that offer more genuine fun than a
bashel of ordinary vaudeville acts or
comic operas.
It IS In the real comedy of these
three funmakers that tne chief merit
Of the Follies lies. Glrjles in tights,
splendid Scehlc effects, dancing, and
the like are merely the shell around
tne kernel.
- Some old favorites are with the pro
duction. There iS: Vera Michelena for
One, and Louise Meyers who sings
sweetly for another. , Anna Penning
ton dances in her own peculiar and
graceful way and Walter Fercival
sings the tenor solos.

; Peter Finds Old Mr. Toad.1
Let all the world with music ring
Beneath the magic touch of spring.
It isn't often that Peter Rabbit Is
ttmly -envious, but sometimes in the
jbyousness of spring he is. He en
vies the birds because they can pour
out in beautiful song the Joy that i
In them. The only way he cato express
his feelings is by kicking his -long
heels, jumping atwut, and such like
foolish things. While that gives Peter
a great deal of satisfaction it doesn't
add to the Joy of other people as da
the songs of the birds, and you know
to give joy to others Is to add to your
own Joy.; So there are times when
Peter wishes he could Bing.
He was wlsHIhf this Very thing now
as he sat on the bank of the Smiling
Pool listening to the great spring
chorus.
"Tra-la-la-lee! Oka-chee! Oka-chee!
There's Joy In the spring for you and
for me."

bulrushes.
From over in the Green Meadows
rose the Clear lilt of Carol the Meadow
Lark, and among the aiders. Just Whefe
the Laughing Brook ran into the 8mil
ing Pool, a flood of happiness was
pouring from the throat of Little
Friend the Song Sparrow. Winsome
Bluebird's sweet, almost plainttva
whistle seemed to fairly float in the
air, so that it was hard to say Just
where it did come frorri, and in the top
of the big hickory tree Welcome Robin
was singing as if his verjr life de
pended oh telling the world how nearly
bursting with Jdy his heart-was. Even
Sammy jav was adding a beautiful
ben-like note instead or his fcsuai
harsh ecieam. AS for the smiling
Pool it seemed as if the Very Water
itself Sang, for a mighty ' chorus of
clear piping voices from unseen sing
ers rose from all around the Smiling
Pool. Petet knew who those singers
were, although look as h would he
could see hone of them. They Were
nylas, the tiny cousins of Stlckytoes
the Tree Toad.
Listening to all these Joyous -voices
Peter f of got for a time What had
brought him to the Smiling Pool. But
Jimmy Skunk and Unc" Billy Possum
didn't forget. They were still hunti
Ing for Old Mr. Toad.
"Well, old Mr. Dreamer, have you
found him yet?" asked Jimmy Skunk,
stealing up behind Peter and poking
him in the back.
Peter came to himself with a guilty
start. "No," said he "I was Just
listening and wishing that I could
sins, too. Don't you ever wish you Next story:
could sing, Jimmy?" . 1Bag.'
