I CECIL, FANXIXQ t Cecil Fanning, the popular young American baritone, will sing at the Heilig theatre, Portland. Wednesday. April 9th. under the direction of the Ellison-White Dusical bureau. Middle West materialism may be a sturdy and abundant soil, but it Is scarcely one from which one an ticipates a rare artistic florescence. However, from the obscurity of a stenographer's desk in Colwmbus. Ohio, Cecil Fanning has gone forth into the great art centers of the world with a message, plus a voice, superimposed on a personality of dis tinction and charm, and returned from them a bearer of laurels and high tribute. Doth in Europe and America. Fanning is accounted an advanced figure in the world of fine arts, an uncommon and versatile mu sical force. i That song, rather than the drama, became Fanning's means of expres sion, ib due to his friend and advisor, accompanist and teacher. H. I. Tur pin. who. hearing Fanning sing. when still a mere lad. realized the promise latent in so fine j a musical material, allied to so uncommon a mentality, to the end that he decided to devote himself completely to the comprehensive training necessary for a true crystallization. .Nor was il the customary hopscotch from studio to concert ftage. For four .long years thee two enthusiasts delved and worked, laying4 the foundation on which Fannin has since; reared so fine a reputation. ! In the parlance, of the! American concert activities.

Vinton, distinguished missionary. In a letter received today at the northwest headquarters here of the $103,000,000 Methodist Episcopal centenary. "The Japanese now have regular Buddhist institutes for training men with all the methods iraed In our American Christian training schools. They study In these institutions our church services and Snnday school activities." writes Mr. Vinton. "There was one beautifnl Japanese girl who professed conversion at one of our Sunday schools. She was one of the ornaments of our church, our missionaries believed. "Six months later she disappeared. Then we. discovered she had been sent to learn our methods. She had committed our best hymns to mem ory. Today she is back imparting these methods for the glory of Buddha."
