Preparations for the final campaign
to complete Oregon's share of the
piscopal clergy pemsion fund will be
made) at a banquet to be held Februaiy
14 at the Hotel PorH&nd. At this gath
ering which will assemble at 6 o'cIook,
Ht. Kev. Walter Taylor summer win
preside, and will deliver the principe.1
address. Besides Bishop Summer sev
eral clergymen and laymen will make
hsort talks. The plates at this ban
quet are placed at 75 cents and reser
vations can be made by notifying Paul

ering will be addressed by Bishop

Bishop Page of Spokane and several
other bishops as well as by prominent
laymen.
The Episcopal church March 1, 1916,
undertook to raise a pension fund
amounting jk 15000,000, the income of
which should be used to pay small sal
aries to superannuated and otherwise
disqualified classes of the clergy. Each
state In the Union was apportioned' a
pro rata share of the total, Oregon's
being $17,000. While a large sum of
money has been given Into the fund
a larger portion, It is said, is In the
form of pledges contingent on the en
tire $5,000,000 being raised by or be
fore March 1, 1917. It is therefore es
sential that each state contribute Its
full share. In order that there shall be
no danger that the fund lapse.

There are hundreds and hundreds of

newspaper publication of delinquent
tax proceedings cost two to three
times as much as the tax itself. If
the delinquent whose delinquency was

Teachers Resent
Attack on Measure
Head of Portland Educational Associa

ton's Bill as Offered in legislature.
"The action of a few teachers a
tacking the Orton bill is resented by
all of the teaching organizations in
the city." A statement, signed by M.
M el and y. head of Portland Educational
association, and William Parker, presi
dent of .the Principals' association,
contains the statement (fcoted. The
criticism Is directed at a group or
eachers who sent a letter to the legis
lature declaring that the Orton bill.
proposing amendments to the teachers'
tenure law, did not meet tne approval
of a large number of teachers, who
are opposed to any amendment what
ever of the law.
The Orton bill provisions were sub
mitted in competition with provisions
of the so-called school board amend
ments to the teachers' tenure law. The
chief feature of the Orton bill is thi
clause requiring the trial of a teacher
against whom charges have been
brought by a commission appointed by
the circuit court. The teachers oppos
ing the measure declare that they have
more confidence inn elective than an
appointive board more confidence in
trial by the school board than by an
appointed commission. The Portland
Educational association indorsed th.
Orton bill at a meeting Tuesday afternoon.

Apparently the couple had become

.Tribute to Wilson
ramous French Dramatist Says "Mystic
Idealism of President Impressed Him
"Profoundly lrom the Beginning.
Paris, Feb. 7. (I. N. S.) Tie fol
lowing high tribute was paid to Presi
dent Wilson today by Edmond Ros
tand, the famous French dramatist:
The mystic idealism of President
Wilson made a profound Impression on
me from the beginning. It seemed to
follow the drama being enacted in the
soul of th-is honest and great states
man a poetical drama, I may call it
a struggle between the noble senti
ments of the private man and the re
alistic duties of a chief of a great na
tion, a drama of patient waiting and
vigilance. He did what was humanly
possible to preserve his country from
war tilT the day when, feeling that the
country was enlightened by the truth
of events, he could speak openly."
Primitive Man Made
Slow Gams at First
Don't worry about blotches or other '
. skin troubles. You can have a clear,

obtained at any drug store for 25c or

Zemo easily removes all traces of

and ringworm and makes the skin clear
and healthy. Zemo is a clean, penetrat

greasy and stains nothing. It is easily
applied and costs a mere trifle for each
Implication. It is always dependable.
