The versatility of these college boys was a forceful testimonial of their sound and careful training. Popular airs and the intricate bars of th classics surrendered alike to reeds and brass. The third number of the pro gram,' Grieg's Peer Gynt Suite, No. 2, wa especially well inter preted. This selection, less famil iar than iw' companion. Suite No. 1, and more difficult, too, was last night a masterpiece of fire and delicate gradations. In this visiting aggregation of good musicians, one number stands out from tha others. This youngster is Sigvald R. Sporati, j a freshman at the institution in Decorah, la., whose mastery of the cathedral chimes, xylophone and traps makes him a specialty art ist of true professional merit. A crowd of perhaps one thou sand music lovers heard the pro gram, which was played on the eve of the National Luther League "onventlon. During this assem bly, which began this morning, the band- will assume an important role, appearing tomorrow evening in the University of Washington stadium as a supplement to St. Olafs choir and the choral union of 1,000 voices. Kb-inoie Theater With plays produced in London, New York and Boston, with sever al of them running simultaneous ly in one or more of these cities. A. A. Milne, the author of "The Truth About Blayds," and "Mr. Pirn Passes By," is certainly a dramatist who has arrived. But he takes his success very modest ly, as will be seen from this brief sketch of himself from his own pen. "I was born in London," says Mr. Milne, "on Jan. 18, 1882. and am therefore over 40 years of age, although many people refuse to believe it. At the age of 11 I went to Westminster school, and there did considerable studyins, intermingled with work and play on football and cricket teams. I began writing for the school pa per verses. parodies and such things, and when I went to Cam bridge I edited the Granta. fa miliar to all students at the uni versity. . . "I left Cambridge in 1903 with Nowadays . . . you press a button fR PERHAPS a switch, or some little gadjet, V- and a lot of things happen around a home -that lighten labor and banish trouble. ; A whirling fan brings a cooling breeze, and a Htle copper dish-like affair throws ouf a sizzling blast that warms the room in no time. Another button boils coffee, toasts bread and cooks waffles! Another does a better job than a broom. Another makes a happy laund ress out of a dismal washwoman. Another one cools the icerbox. Another but why go on? Labor and time saving devices have come and are today within the reach, of the humblest home. i And one of the chief reasons why they have come and why they are within the reach of the humblest home is the power of advertising. Advertising has carried the news of these better ways of doing things to every home. It has created a desire to possess them, and count less thousands have purchased them,, and . live fcetter because of them. - 4 Reading advertising not only tells you about nTVvv lieJpful metbanical devices .for the; home - fciil it isan, unfailing guide td. reliable riroducts. - x i - ,- s " - I O -, , . : , " Read the Advertising regularly. V It points . "i the way to a very moderate degree, and a feeling among the members of my family that I had belied the prom ise of my youth whatever thejr may have thought that to be. I had even then ambitions to be come a professional writer, and I remember well the two cheap and dirty rooms in a policeman's hous in Chelsea where I lived during my prentice days. "By the end of my first year I had earned about 20 pounds, and by the close of my second year in London it had increased to 120 pounds. In February. -1906. a surprising thing happened. The editor of Punch retired, the assist ant editor was made editor, and I was offered the assistant editor ship. I accepted, as may be imag ined, and immediately began to feel important and rich. "I remained on the staff of Punch until 1914. when my war service began. My first play was produced in 1917. and since then those who follow the dramatic may remember what I have done. I really think that perhaps the critics are right, and that "The Truth About Blayds" is one of my best plays. But I have many otb ers in mind, and perhaps I may be able to write a better one." Those who visit the Elsinore theater next Tuesday, July 13, will undoubtedly say that he has done it in "Mr. Pkn Passes By." Trinity Congregation Agrees on Languages SILVERTON, Ore., July 8. (Special) At a meeting at Trin ity church this wek it was decid-, ed that English services would be held each Sunday at 11 o'clock and that Norwegian services be held on Sunday afternoons or evenings at such times as arrang ed by those wishing the Norwe gian.

BLACKMAILER ESCAPES Seizes Fake Bills, Flees Amid Hail of Police .Bullets PORTLAND, Ore., July 8. (AP) A youthful blackmailer whoso illadvised attempts at ex tortion failed to bear fruit, is nevertheless fortunate in retaining his life and freedom, police con ceded tonight, in commenting on the activities of a lad of 20, who escaped a trap only because of his eagerness to reap the profits of his scheme. Pouncing out of the underbrush upon a roll of fake bills fully ten minutes before the appointed hour, the youth escaped simply because police expected him at 8 o'clock, and not 7:50. A shower of bullets from sev eral officers already on the scene, peppered into the brush after the blackmailer as he darted for cov er, but none is believed to have taken effect. The youth, not identified, had written three crudely worded notes, to three Portland business men. .demanding sums ranging from 200 to $500.

It is now up to the free traders to show that this will be a burden on the people living in glass houses. r -i , : ; REALLY SUMMER SE S Tribute Paid to Gameness of Veteran Actor Under Painful Treatment SAN FRANCISCO, July 8. ; (AP) John Drew, 73. noted ac : tor. was nearer death tonight than jeAer before during the illness i which has confined him to a hospi i tal here since May 31. j Announcing that his patient's condition had ..taken a grave turn for the worse Dr. Lawrence Hoff I man, physician in charge, said he expected to visit Drew shortly be fore midnight, and would issue another bulletin at that time. Mr. and Mrs. Jack Deveraux, Drew's daughter and son-in-law, and his nephew, Jehn Barrymore, were at the bedside. "Mr. Drew is the most remark able patient I have treated during thirty years' practice," Dr. Law rence Hoffman, the actor's person al physician, said today. "Despite the painful treatments we have admniistered, he won't admit that hehas been hurt. From the start, he has been so uncom plaining, so gracious and so kind ly. "John Barrymore, his nephew, is here now, and has been with Mr. Drew much of the time. Lionel Karrymore, John s brother, came here from Hollywood, to see his uncle, but was obliged to return to a picture which he abandoned when half completed. Ethel Barrymore, a niece, telephones al most every day from New York. "Mr. Drew is very low and there is little hope of his recovery, but he is such a remarkable man, it would be foolish to say he has no hope for recovery."
