DVllrXSA"W, WOODMEN DEDICATE HALL Splendid New Structure In Dallas Opened With Formal Exercises Tuesday Evening. Is The beautiful new Woodmen build ing in Dallas was dedicated to the uses and purposes of Woodcraft by Head Consul I. I. Boak, of Denver, assisted by the officers of Dallas Camp, No. 209, Woodmen of the World, Tuesday eveuing. The largest gathering of Woodmen ever assembled in Polk county witnessed the exercises and listened to an able address by the honored Head Consul. Members of the order were present from Portland, Salem, .Eugene, McMinnville, New berg, Sheridan, Dayton, Amity, Inde pendence, Monmouth, Falls City, Ballston and other valley towns. The large audience filled the new hall to overflowing, and many people stood in the halls and ante-rooms through out the exercises. The Head Camp was represented by Head Consul I. I. Boak, of Denver, and Head Banker P. E. Snodgrass, of Eugene. Hon. Walter L. Tooze, of Woodburn, Oregon's delegate to the Fraternal Congress of America ; State Organizer Harry L. Day and Hon. J. M. Woodworth, of Portland, were also among the prominent guests of the evening. Uniformed drill teams from Monmouth, McMinnville, Sheri dan and Dallas camps were in attend ance. A special motor train from Monmouth early in the evening brought a large crowd of enthusiastic Woodmen from the south end of the county, accompanied by the Oregon State Normal School brass band. Head Consul Boak and party arrived from Salem in the afternoon and were driven to the Hotel Gall, where rooms had been reserved for them. They were met at the hotel by the members of the reception committee, and a pleasant half-hour was spent in re newing old-time acquaintances and in social conversation. The members of the reception committee were V. P. Fiske, Judge J. E. Sibley, Frank Kerslake, E. C. Kirkpatrick and W. A. Ayres. Messrs. Kirkpatrick and Fiske having attended former Head Camp sessions, were personally acquainted with Head Consul B;mk, and intro duced him to the members of Dallas Camp who called to pay their respects. Later in the afternoon the visitors were escorted to the new Woodmen building, where an informal reception was held. The Head Consul was greatly pleased with the arrangement and furnishings of the new structure, pronouncing it one of the most com modious and up-to-date lodge build ings he had ever visited, and paying a high compliment to the members of Dallas Camp, No. 209, for the energy and progressive spirit displayed in the erection of a building creditable alike to the order and to the city of Dallas. Before returning to the hotel, the party was formed in a group in front of the building and photo graphed by T. J. Cherriogton. The evening exercises did not begin until 8:45 o'clock, owing to the late arrival of the train from Portland. While waiting for the train, the large crowd was entertained by the Mon mouth band, which rendered a num ber of choice selections. Visitors arriving from the north were met at the train by the band and the Dallas drill team, under command of Major V. P. Fiske, and escorted to the hall where seats had been reserved for them. The vast assemblage was called to order by E. C. Kirkpatrick, who had been chosen to preside as chairman of the evening. After a stirring rendi tion of "Hail Columbia" by the Woodmen orchestra and the singing of "America" by the audience, Mr. Kirkpatrick arose, and, in a graceful speech, requested Hon. Walter L. Tooze, of Woodburn, to assume the active chairmanship. In accepting the proffered honor, Mr. Tooze gave a pleasing 10-minute address, in the course of which he puid a high tribute to tho work of the fraternal orders In the United States. He closed by warmly congratulating Dallas Camp for its enterprise in building such a beautiful home and for it3 rapid growth in membership. Mr. Tooze is an eloquent and entertaining speaker, and his brief remarks were received with enthusiastic applause. Hon. George L. Hawkins read an excellent paper on "The. Objects of Woodcraft," and closed by giving a brief history of Dallas Camp, No. 209. He traced the growth of the camp from the date of its first organization down to the present time, and told of the active interest that has always been taken by the Woodmen of Dallas in the growth and development of their home city. Oscar Hayter was iwi nested to read a portion of the Woodmen ritual entitled "Woodcraft in Life and Death" and responded in a pleasing manner. Head Consul Boak then took charge of the exercises and formally dedicated the new hall to the uses of Woodcraft- He was assisted in the dedicatory ceremonies by the officers of Dallas Camp. Head Banker P. E. Snodgrass was next introduced, and gave a clear anJ concise statement of the manner in which the vast amount of money paid into his hands each month is handled. It may be stated here that since Mr. Snodgrass took charge of the office of Head Banker, the order has received interest on daily balances every month, with the result that $1050 has been earned for the treasury in three months. That the new Head Banker is popular with the boys throughout the Pacific Jurisdiction goes without saying. The address of Head Consul Boak is one that will be long remembered 8 I I I S 1 1 in I TtTL II ftil r 1 WJ We Tallt Quality and the" Price.

While following the line of argument pre sented bv all effective speakers in the interest of fraternal insurance, Mr. Boak went farther and spoke for iarhteousness and faithful service in all forms of government city, county, state and national In tne united States, and pleaded eloquently for the support of every movement or organi zation that has for its object the up lifting and betterment of mankind. Hia tribute to the memory of the late Head Consul Falkenburg was beauti ful and touching and made a deep impression upon every Woodman present. Head Consul Boak Is an earnest forcible speaker, and has the power of holding the closest attention of his hearers at all times. Excellent music was furnished for the entertainment by the Woodmen orchestra and the Monmouth band. The latter organization, under the able direction of Prof. Frank Lucas, furnished two numbers that was greatly enjoyed. Mrs. J. C. Uglow, one of Dallas' favorite vocalists, sang with charming effect "My Dream, by Tosti, and In response to an encore gave Nevin's "Mighty Lak a Rose." Miss Georgia Shriver delighted her hearers with "The Sweetest Story Ever Told," and for an encore sang "Coax Me." The members of Dallas Damp deeply appreciated the kindness of Poem No. 4.

One of the enjoyable features of the evening was the exhibition drill by the Monmouth team, under the direc tion of Captain II. D. Whitman. Difficult manoeuvers were executed with skill and precision, showing painstaking practico on the part of the Captain and his men. The team presented a neat appearance in their rich blue uniforms. After the exercises were concluded an informal reception was held to give the people of Dallas an oppor tunity to meet the distinguished guests of the evening. An hour later, the big crowd dispersed, and the most en joyable social event in the realms of Woodcraft in Polk county passed Into history. Any account of this great fraternal meeting would be incomplete without a mention of the beautirul decora tions in the hall. Boses, chrysan themums, ferns and palms were everywhere in evidence, and the hand some effects obtained called forth many compliments from the guests of the evening. The decorations were in charge of a committee consisting of Mrs. Frank Kerslake, Mrs. J. E. Sib ley and Mrs. H. P. Shriver. Legal blanks for sale at this office, Those new oil cans at Howe's are O.
