ARMORY REVIVAL Meetings Every Night This Week Except Friday At 7:30 sharp. Those attending express their apprecia tion of the sane, sound, practical messages which effect all phases of human affairs in these last days. These meetings are absolutely free from fanaticism and hob bies as wel as dry, dead mechanical formalism. God's people are disgusted with both extremes and are looking for a "center line track," which is the feature of these meetings. All are invited to come and bring their Bibles . and hear and see what God is doing in these last days. ADD HALF CENT BUTTER DROPS COMEDIANS TO CLIMB FILM LADDER.

Thm advnnre on 40s Is particti larly interesting, considering the trice that an advance of halt a cent on Oregon 4Uu to 9 cents is in.minvni at any time. In fact announcement of this expected ad vance may come any day tnis week. The new rise in 40a on the CallMiniJM put KUity 4US at luv cents and Sunsweot 40 at 10 ftentjt leavlnif a differential con- ldered too wide, in llht of the fcllh differential that has existed all alnn,i this year. With probably no more than f. 00". 000 pounds of prunes to be didpnwed of In the- northwest, and r!Hiiforiiiii with the dominating tonnage that remains unsold, there aeeimt no reason hero why packers ahould not (shove 40s up to 9 cents and realize nomething on the crop for this year. Forties are the Iujik nd of the prune slick In Ori-Kon and havo been the only fly in the prune Jam. Kvery other size could be cleaned out slick as a whlHtlc in abort oidr, particularly 30s at lat prices, but it haa been neces sary to move the 40s by selling In assortment. With California shov ing up 1U price certain packer aee no reason why all of the 40a should not move In easy order from here at 9 centa and there Is little doubt that the 9 cent price will prevail shortly. Indications are that the Drager prune pol is getting; Ha share of signers. "It costs but a twentieth of a cent a pound for the grower to try the new proposition of fixing a cer tain minimum price and If he does not realize that minimum he is noi cut a cent," says a statement from that company today. "The prune market Is growing stronger. Cali fornia made further advance on their prunes yesterday. The only thing the matter with the fruit business In Oregon is there la a lot of fe'.lows fooling with the fruit game and hindering the producers from getting a fair price for his fruit. Unlewi growers organize in some way there is little chancefor Improvement. The h ou h Monday afternoon adopted a Joint memorial calling upon Oregon s aeiegauun in cun greiM to ak for a three cent a pound auty on cnernes lmpurini Into the United States. The Joint memorial introduced by Represen tatives Miller and Reynold and Senator Dennis points out that the cherry Industry of Oregon Is suf fering on account of Imported fruit. The present Import tariff Is two cents a pound. The memorial specifically calls upon Oregon's delegation In con gress to appear before the board of appraisal In New York City January 28 to urge a tariff of not lens than three cents a pound.

FOR '24 EXCEED 2 YEARS RECORD Portland, Jan. 20 (Special) Dried prune exports from the port of Portland for 1924 were In ex cess of the total shipments for 922 and 19'3 combined, the total tonnage for 1924 shipped to for eign countries being 10,232. while In 1923 the port shipped out 7473 tons and In 1922, 2713 tons. 'rune shipments go to 19 differ ent countries from this port, the United Kingdom being the larg est buyer. Other largo shipments went to Holland, Belgium. Den mark, Norway and Sweden. i lie move of canned goods also shows an incre-une over the two previous years, the figures for 1924 being 8719 tons, for 1923, 4921 tons nnd 1922, 674 tons. The greater part of the movement of this commodity Is also to the United Kingdom with smaller ship ments to llelglum, China, (Jermany Kratu-e, Japan and the Scandinav ian cb ii n tries. The shipment of dried apples Is a recent movement from thi port. During 1924, 390 tons of this com modity were exported of which approximately half was delivered In the United Kingdom and the balance to the various other coun tries in Northern Kurope. This Is a movement which should Increase quite rapidly. Cascara bark exports also show ed heavy increases over previous years with 443 tons shipped. As this commodity Is very light, this means quite some little volume. The total export for the year 1924 amounted to 1. 396.937 tons compared with 1.261.558 tons In 1923 and 1.294,848 tons n 1922.
