The Oregon Journal of Portland reported interestingly concerning Mr. Johnson, the soloist, as fol lows: Following his appearance in Spokane, under the dircetion of the Musical Art society, the Spokesman-Review said of Arth ur Johnson, Portland tenor: "The youBj-Jor possesses a lyric voice " ot apptHing quality, blended with a highly developed sense of the artistic. Mr. Johnson sings with ease, a great deal of sympathy and musicianly understanding. More over, his diction is splendid. Also it mav be said of Mr. Johnson's vclce that it is even in all regis ters and never forced, bringing to hi internretations a marked fin ish and style not often round among the younger artists." This same reviewer also wrote: "May Van Dyke played the accompanl ments from memory. She was at all times in complete Bympatny with him. and her clear-cut touch aad masterly style added much to the charm and enjoyment of the concert." Mr. Johnson and Miss Van Dyke have been engaged to appear in Seattle, Tacoma, Salem and "Tillamook in the near future. A signal distinction is that trained by Arthur Johnson, tenor of Portland, in the November issue of "Singing." wherein Carl Fisch er. Inc.. music publishers of New York, advertise to the extent of a quarter page Mr. Johnson's use of several songs published by that house. These songs, in which Mr. Johnson lias been heard locally, include Hageman'a "Christ Went I'd Into the Hills," Kreisler's 'The Old Refrain. "Oscar Fox's 'The Hills of Home," and True co's "Reve Blanc" and "Reve Noir." It is said that Mr. John sr.n is the only Pacific Coast ginger to appear in the series of adver tisements of which this is one Other singers who have-been sim ilarly featured are Reinald Wer rtnrath.

( ) SNAKE SCARES TENANTS Six Foot Serpent in Rooming House Surrenders to Law Special as long as thev last body powder and bath salts only 6c, regular 75c each. These make wonderful Christmas pres ents. Crown Drue. 332 State. ti SEATTLE, Dec. 13 (AP) After a six foot blue snake had terrified rooming house tenants by dropping from chandeliers, coiling up in their, bathtubs and slipping through transoms,' it sur rendered to the law today and Snowdrift looks good ' tocat. It's snow-white acid creamy and as dainty as a shortening could be. And Snow drift is just as good as it looks. Your cakes and biscuits and pastry will prove that to you when you make them with this fine shortening. KATE BftEW VAUGHN'S RECIPE CREAM PUFFS I Cup Boiling Wattr yi Cup Snowdrift Teaspoon Salt x Cup Flour : 4 ESS1 Put water and Snowdrift in saucepan, when it comes to boiling point add flour all at one time and stir and beat until it leaves the sides of pan. Remove from stove and add one at a time the e.ggs, beating in each egg well be fore adding the next. Drop by spoonfuls on a greased baking sheet. Bake from 35 to 45 minutes, according to, size, in oven 5O0 degrees F. for the first five minutes, re ducing about 50 degrees at a' time every five minutes, until when they begin to brown the temperature is 350 degrees ,F. When the puff leaves the greased bak ing sheet easily, they are done and should. be cooled on a rack with tr circulation of air all about. When cold, fill with whipped cream. Snowdrift Qui ck IQ All the world loves fluffy, wholesom? hot biscuits but they must be fluff y and wholescmje. Some such form of quick bread often adds just the perfect touch to an otherwise ordinary meal. Many a housewife hesitates to plan hot biscuits into a meal because they at times fail to measure up to her standard of daintiness. Some think there is a lot of "luck in the making of hot breads when, as a mat' ter of fact, the only element of luck is variableness in the ingredients, the handling, or in the baking. One of the more important factors is reliable flour flour that is uniform in every sack and unvarying in every action. Such a flour is milled according to formula. There is never any change in its compO' sition of food elements. Fisher's Blend Brand Flour is a formula flour, the same today, as last month, as ten years ago.
