That's right! Get all
you can for the money you
spend whether if be much
or little.
Here's how to get your
full moneyVworth in tea:
Don't buy common tea,
even at a low price per
pound. It is extravagant per
cup, because a pound makes
so few cups unless you
want tannin-strength, which
is harmful.
Pay the price fdr good
tea, which is full of tea
flavor, and is really cheaper
per cup. .
You save money, and you
get the cheer and invigora
tion and restfulness that only
line tea can give.
Schilling Tea is your tea.
There art four flavors of Schilling
Tea Japan, Ceylon India. Oolong,
English Breakfast, AH one quality. In
parchmvn-lined moisture-proof packages.
At grocers everywhere.

Here's Something New Again
Liberty to Feature Effects
More "big time" stuff for Portland.
Again, or yet. It might well be said.
It's Paul Noble, manager of the Lib
erty, who has something to offer, the
story being, briefly, that beginning next
Saturday, pictures at the Liberty will
be presented in style de luxe, with all
the stage settings, scenery, effects and
people, that mark the service of the
really big New York houses and of the
Orauman theatre, Los Angeles.
In fact, it Is from that Los Angeles
cinema, where he has attracted na
tional recognition for his exploitation,
that Jack Calllcott comes to the Liberty
to inaugurate a new era for the big J.
tc V. house.
"I have given Calllcott carte blanche,"
says Noble, "to 'go to it and he has
already lined up a program that la go
ing to make motion picture history in
Portland."
The familiar Columbia highway Tails"
effects on the stage at the Liberty,
long the admiration of - patrons there.
Are We More
St
Is Our Taste More Exacting?
Has the housewife become extrava
gant as the result of having more
money to spend?
Are her tastes mors luxurious and
more exacting?
Does she confine her purchases to
necessities, or are unseasonably luxu
ries included?
Is not the failure to keep an accurate
account of household expenditures a mis
take that costs a good many dollars
every year?
These and other problems are sug
gested by the score or more or house
wives who have discussed their views of
the high cost of living with the House
hold Editor during the last two weeks.
The Journal Is desirous of making
this department a basis for real help to
the housekeeper who Is anxious to meet
present conditions with the least possible
outlay and to that end communications
either by mall or over the telephone con
cerning, household experiences will be
welcomed. If you have actual figures on
what your living costs were four years
ago and what they are now, they will
be especially appreciated. Address the
Household Editor.

Mrs. Donald Spencer, housewife and
business representative of the Portland
Symphony orchestra, says :
"Home management is the most inter
esting thing in the world to nie next
comes the orchestra. I keep a strict ac
count of the cost of the household. The
comparative figures for a month tn 1916
and the same month in 1919 are typical
short musical and literary program will
also be given. At the conclusion of the
program a three piece orchestra will
furnish music for dancing. The affair

BV CARLYSL,E H.HOLCOMB
I The Feathered Creatures Arrive I
CX THE morrow the king was greatly
J surprised.
North Wind had heard
about the affair and when morning
came he blew the clouds away and the
sun shone brightly. The Chickadees
were first on the scene, for they roosted
near the King's Palace. Then there
began to gather feathered creatures of
many kinds. Tinker Bob was Indeed
astonished to find so many had remained
In the Great Forest for the winter.
"I have not seen you before," said
Tinker, speaking to an early comer.
"I am the Mrs. Sage Hen. I live on
the edge of the Forest where the sage
brush grows."
"Don't you go to a warmer place in
the winter-timer asked the King.
"No, we live In one place all seasons
of the year, and as long as there are
sage leaves we can live," said Mrs.
Sage Hen as she spread her wings. "I
came here because Mr. Weasel has killed
many of my children."
"There comes Bobby the Screech Owl,"
said Tinker, "I don't see you wandering
about much In the day time."
"I don't go out much In the day light,"
said Bobby. "The light hurts my eyes
and so I stay in a hole in a tree. But
this Mr. Weasel has been so troublesome
to all of - the smaller creatures that I
want to' speak against him."
"Here comes Mr. and Mrs. Whitetailed
Ptarmigan," said the King. We do not
see them very often, they are so timid.
Why do you come here today?"
"We come because Mr. Weasel .has
killed many of our brothers and sisters."
"You have a beautiful coat of white.
It's hard to tell where you are when
the ground Is covered with snow."
"Mother Nature has 'given us a white
coat for winter and a gray and black
one for summer.
"Well, there comes Mr. Ruffled Grouse.
He braves all kinds of weather and is
so strong."
"I heard Mr. Jay Bird telling Mr.
Weasel and I thought I must come and
tell , you he has killed nqr mate and
should pay the penalty." -, ,
have been taken out. and other changes
have been made to accommodate a large
cycloramic sky pieoe that will be used
as a background for effects and it will
handle anything from the whistling of a
snowstorm "round the curves of an Arc
tic igloo to a starry night on the sands
of the Sahara.
A regular staff of players and vocal
ists is being engaged for use in prologue
and tableaux effects and in whatever
other manner may be desired for the
realistic presentation of pictures. Noble
says, too, that where possible, the real
thing In stage settings, rather than
pictured effects and cutouts, will be
UEtd. The Liberty, In short, will be
equipped as a regular theatre for the
presentation of any and all productions.
Paul Gribach has been engaged as
stage manager and - will have things
ready for the kickoff Saturday.
Murtagh and the organ will work in
harmony with the new scheme of pre
sentation and will add materially to the
effectiveness of the exploitation.
Extravagant?
of the Increase in the cost of necessi
ties. I have chosen September, as that
seems to be the month when there are no
extra items, such as sugar for canning
or eggs for winter packing or when the
market is extra high, as in winter. My
September bills for 1916 were: Gas,
J.az ; electricity. 1.75 ; water. $2.98
heat. (5; telephone. $2.75; groceries.
$22.25; milk. $3.64; meat and fish. $5.
For the same month in 1919 the bills
were : Gas, $3.76 ; electricity, $2.20
water, $3.44 ; heat, $10 ; telephone. $3.50
groceries, $54.50; milk, $8; meat and
fish, $19. In 1916 the month's bills
totaled $45.69 ; in 1919 they totaled!
$104.39. There are four adults in our
family and only breakfast and dinner
are served, there being no luncheon, ex
cept "in the pantry."
LESSON IS VALUABLE
Mrs. J. E. Withrow, housewife, says:
"I think the war has taught us very
valuable lessons in thrift and economy.
The restrictions on certain foodstuffs
taught us that what we ordinarily thought
absolutely necessary could be got along
without quite comfortably. Then our
patriotism spurred us to economy and
self denial that we might contribute to
the various war funds and subscribe for
government securities, and as a result
of all of this, we have saved more in the
last four years than we did before the
war. Salaries surely haven't increased
In proportion to the increase In the cost
of food and clothing, so It must be that
we have learned to live more economi
cally." noon for Mrs. Albert and Mr. and Mrs.
Clarence Hotchkiss will be hosts for a
studio tea on Sunday In the Eilers
building.
"The Climbers"
At Columbia Today
"What is a "climber"? The term is
almost exclusively used In the social set
to designate a type of social parasite
who strives to break inside the for
bidden precincts of the social circle. A
visualization of such characters Is given
In Vltagraph's latest picture, "The
Climbers," starring Corinre Griffith, at
the Columbia today. Climbers are seen
to be persons who use all manner of
ruses to reach recognition as wearers
of the social purple, but who for some
indefinable reason cannot attain the
goal of their ambitions.
"The Speak-Easy," a Sennett comedy,
on the same bill.
Oregon Electric council Tuesday night
installed officers and had a supper at
the new K. of P. building.
"I don't go out much In the daylight,"
said Bobby. "The light hurts my
eyes."
Mr. Ruffled Grouse Is sly fellow
but, even with all or his slyness Mr.
Weasel the Great now and then catches
him sleeping.
"There comes Mr. Great Horn the Owl,
I didn't suppose he would associate with
any other creature -of the forest. Whv
do you come here?" said Tinker in sur
prise.
The Great Horned Owl is a daneer-
ous creature in the forest, about twenty-
two inches long, with large tufts of
feathers over his ears that look like
horns. All of the smaller birds are very
much afraid of this fellow, and when
he is anywhere about they usually get
out of signt. ,
"I come." said he, "because I want
you to turn Mr. Weasel the Great over
to me for punishment, and when I am
through with him there will not be
enough left of him to see."
TomoAowt Mr. Weasel Found Guilty.

Comedy Players
Offer Fine
Numbers
By S. S. Jr.
rrpRUTHFTuULiY, If prosaically speak-
A ing, a small but very appreciative
audience greeted the Devereux players at
The Auditorium last night In their pre
sentation of Oliver Goldsmith's oomedy,
"She Stoops to Conquer."
In fact. It seemed almost like feetnc tn
the classroom again for a tanon In
English literature. The atmosphere was
there ; a considerable part of the small
audience was composed of students, and
the rest were those not regular th atre
goers, but rather those who pride them
selves on being well read and equtoped
men tall and temperamentally to appre
elate and comprehend the finer things
of the stage.
"She Stoops to Conquer" is a spark
ling comedy old, indeed, but It nat aged
like wine. It is anything but the dry.
draggy, musty antique as pictured bv
those who shudder at mere mental crn
temptation of anything classical." The
lines are snappy and the situations
laugh provoking, though less could eas
ily make mere buffoonery of the comedy.
In this piece the work of Agnes El
liott Scott as Mrs, Hardcastle. and of
Ralph Bradley as Tony Lumpkin, stand
out especially. Miss Graf is charming
as Kate Hs.rdcastle, who "stoops and
conquers" Charles Mar low, finely inter
preted by Mr. Devereux. Gage Bennett
scores, too, as Hardcastle, and others of
the cast are no less finished In. their
art
The attendance last night, thou;i not
what it should have been, was better
than on the opening night, and as the
-eal worth of the attraction becomes
better known locally It la expected that
more hearty reoeptlon will be accorded
these players.
This afternoon "The Proposal'
(Tchekoff) and "Romancers" (Rostand)
are being given. Tonight, tomorrow
night and Saturday night, "School for
Scandal" will be repeated, and Saturday
