last night; at the Capitol theater.
thf pleasure Is multiplied. The
director of the rliorus. Professor
Kmory V. Hohnon. dean jof the
school of music, performs-a-service
that 'can scarcely he appreciated
when he present!! to the public a
singing1 body which seord such a
success as that which the club
achieved last night.
The theater was packed for the
event and the program, with the
addition of many encores, was al
most doubled in length so it was
a poor ;Scotchman who didn't get
his money's worth.
,Tbo program opened with that
masterful composition of Mallard,
"Sword of Feirarra," which few
clnbs hare ever sang ranrc success
fully.. ' . r
Donald Craven, tenor,-whose
voice has won much favor in tb
lafltew years, was in excellent
form last night for the plaintive,
tender's ppul or '.Spirit Flower."
(O.TJpton). Mr. Cravnn respond
ed with .the encore. "It Is Morn
ing," which set the pace of the
program. J j
Cad man's "At i Dawning" j was
ung with the sympathy thajt at:
tended the -ntir pt-rformamje,
S bu man's stirring number j"Tho
Two tirenadiTs."; wars thrivingly
rendered by Lfoyd Thompson,

a burst of applause, when the1 four
sang "Massa of de Sheepfold," a

was the encore.
The club closed the first half of
the prog nun with. Hanley's ''Just

, Mendenhall's "Jolly Students'
depicts college spirit with ! such
fine' flavor that veryone's heart
was warmed.
Tell Me Not of a Lovely Lass
was another number which; the
club as a whole feave with splen
did harmonic effects. I
To. Mr.. Joe Nee, Willamette's
.iicotch soloist, went the individual
laurels of the evening. The audi
ence clamored for one number af
ter' another until three encores
finally quieted the crowd. I Mr.

The, duet. ."Joshua Fit' the Rat

cally received and again it took
the antidotes of encores to quite
the audience. A popular Willam
ette song carried much appeall
Paul Trueblood's readings were
received with as much favpr as
the songs which scored so well.
The clever skit staged during the
intermission was an uproarious
contribution to a highly successful
program which formally closed the
season of, the club.

'Every friend of the senior class
of the Salem high school who at
tends the class play, "The Young
est." tonight at the hish school
auditorium will doubtless be more
than pleased with the drama.
A snappy dress rehearsal took
place last niKht and those who
shared in the pre-yiew were great
ly impressed by the dramatic zeal
with which the amateurs put the
plot across. Phillip Barrie is the
author of the three-act drama, one
of the best the high school has
ever secured for presentation. This
is only the second time the play
has been giren in the northwest.
The first time was at the Wash
ington hip;h si hool in Portland last
year.
The , brightest candle of tho
whole performance is, of course,
the leading lady. Katherine Elgin,
a very winsome blonde, who makes
a sporting bet that motivates the
entire drama.
Miss Minnie Shrode is excellent
in the role of Mrs. "Winslow. the
widow of a prominent and influ
ential citizen. Her poise and ease
of manner are dfstinctive.
The impetuous, sensitive Rich
ard, "the youngest." who carries
the title role, is a true "find" in
th field of amateur dramatics. He
acts with a glow of feeling that
comes from :i fine instinct for
character woi kj.
I'rlin Page and Uobert Shattuc.
as Mark and Oliver, respectively,
are immensely essential to the un
folding of the plot. As elder
brothers they exhibit their station
in quite a peerless way. Harold
C'olgan. as Allan, is a capable law
yer at hand for more than one
emergency in the tumultuous
t curse of an excellent play.
Julia Currie. as the decisive,
iuxury-loving Augusta, is a supe
rior addition to the cast. Her
enunciation and facial mannerisms
quickly and clearly convey her
status in the family. Lois Burris
as Muff, fills a second "sisterly"
role with a keen feeling for a
highly charged plot.
Miss Florian hlrubetz. as Katie,
in trim black satin and frilly apron
bridges many gaps and leads the
family smoothly from one scene
tq another. While her part is an
rnobti'usive one. it is far too well
done to be called minor.
Both the t.tage sets and the cos
tumes are appropriate and unusu
ally effective.
The coach. Herman Kerhli, has
brought the annual senior play to
a stage where, when it is finally
presented tonight, it may well be
classed with the best Uhe school
has ever offered.
"Gold Hill Champlin placer

his own experience as a grower.
An increase of one cent in the
tariff is all that is possible until
a jiew law is enacted. The present
tariff is two cents a pound, and
the .president Is empowered to in
crease this 50 per cent on the
recommendation of the tariff com
mission. The present investiga
tion must include an inquiry into
the costs of production and. selling
prices in the competing countries,
and a decision may be announced
in May.
Hogg's figures showed that the
cost of reproducing present or
chards in this vicinity would be
SO&o an acre. He contended that
H per cent would be a fair return
in interest on so hazardous an
occupation as cherry growing,
pointing out. that federal and
state farm loan boards will not
make loans on cherry orchards he
cause of the uncertainty of a re
turn on the crop.
Costs Shown High
It requires 0 to 12 years for a
cherry orchard to come into full
bearing, and its life is 20 years.
Average production over a five
year period has been lOOti pouuds
to the acre, it was shown. Main
tenance costs average S3 5 an a re,
and a fair return to the operator
above the cost of lahor was fixed
at S10 an acre. The cost of pick
ing and marketing is nearly 1
cent not counting the 2 cents a
pound paid the pickers. Taxes on
cherry orchards average 1 an
acre.

The application for ballot title

That Oresonians may know the
many benefits which their state
afords them hut the people of the
United States at large are still un
aware of the possibilities here,
was the gist of Herbert Cnth
bert's address to members of the
Salem Realty board and Salem
Ad club yesterday.
Cuthberjt heads the publicity
bureau of! the Portland chamber ,
of commerce, facing every day they
problem of broadcasting Oregon's
bright points to other states.
"No matter how badly we want
new industries we are not going
to get them until our present ones
are boosted and advertised as
profitable and well managed con
terns, which most of them are, or
additions to the payroll of our
state will be scarce," said Mr.
Cuthbert. Del Monte. Heinz, and
Sunkist products were mentioned
as prominent examples of what
directed advertising campaigns
will do for such firms.
Tho dairying and poultry indus
tries have been scratched only on
the surface in the state. Roth offer
unlimited possibilities for increas
ed revenue if advertising is re
sorted to.
The speaker pointed out that
17G cities spent $8,300,000 in self
advertising last year in tho Unit
ed States and of this amount only
$:!.r.00o was spent in Oregon. All
of that amount was expended by
the 1'ortland chamber of com
merce. Iast year lO.'.OOO tourist auto
mobiles brought approximately
$2,000,000 into the state, accord
ing to the files in Portland. This
number is expected to increase by
