Mrs. Matt 8 . Hughes of Portland, president of the society, presided at the ses­ sions. and Dr. Hultt, pastor of the Rose City Park church o f Port­ land, made the opening address. Dr. Hultt chose for his subject, ‘ Con­ scription," and made a most excellent address on this subject. He showed how we are all subject to conscrip­ tion In almost our every act. and aaentioned the military conscription, the conscription o f taxes, the con­ scription o f education. Jury con­ scription. He then drew a parallel with religious conscription, and showed how the Biblical characters were subject to conscription. The doctor interspersed his talks with numerous humorous stories. In speaking of tainted money he said that its taint Is only “ taint ours.’’ The doctor concluded his subject by showing that even in the punish­ ment for failure to comply with con- ecrlptlon orders there was a parallel between physical and spiritual con­ scription— on the one hand the peni­ tentiary, on the other the punish­ ment o f hell. On Wednesday there were devo­ tional services, musical numbers, re­ ports, a round table, introductions and announcements.

In fact the Presbyterian church haa guaranteed its quota of 9100 , and about 930 haa been paid Into the fund from outside sources. China has passed through three years with no harvest and her peo­ ple are starving for want of food. Floods destroyed their crope three years ago, and the last two years drought has left them, with empty warehouses.. Some 300.000 of those war to help make the world habitable for all mankind, and It is unthinkable that the world will not help them In this time of trouble. Both of the local banka are reci­ pients of the funds, and anyone de­ siring to contribute may do so through them. One of tbe features of this drive is that every cent given goes to feed the Chinese, as arrange­ ments have been made so that all expense is borne outside of the funds raised. Then, too, further arrange­ ments have been made so that within 48 hours from the time funds are paid in here, they are feeding the Chinese in China. Thus no one cmn say that their money w ill be wasted m- that It w ill not reach Its destination. --------- o--------- IM PE R IA L CHARGES HARDS The Imperial Hotel haa changed hands.

These are the reasons given by the department for getting a siren. Realising that it la up to them to raise the money, they have beeen giving entertainments and dances to raise the funds. They say that they have a genuine surprise in store for the near future in the form of a big show at the local theatre.

Oregon State Chamber of Commerce is Making Plans to Conduct Party Over the State by Anto Portland, Ore., April 9.— (Special). — Despite stepe toward carrying out the land settlement plan announced by the Oregon State Chamber o f Commerce whereby prospective Im­ migrants from tbe middle western state« would be grouped together and brought to Oregon in a body, were taken at a meeting of tbe executive committee yesterday through the appointment of William “ Bill” Han­ ley of Borne, a director of the State Chamber, and J. R. Heuring, fo r­ merly with the Eastern Oregon Land Company, to represent Oregon and the State Chamber in the middle weet this summer. The two mem will leave for Omaha within the next; ten days. It was announced. “ Bill” Hanley is probably one o f the best known men In tbe state o f Oregon in agricultural and stock- raising circles. Coming to Oregon In the pioneer days, when the state was practically an untouched w ll- dernnese, he has “ grown np with the West” and has become a powerful figure in ail movements having to do with the development of the state. As a director of the State Chamber, and through his belief in the future of Oregon, he has become enthusiastic over tbe plans for bringing settlers to the state, and offered his services without remuneration for the cam­ paign in the middle west this sum­ mer. ' ‘T m going to tell those people in. the middle west what wS’ Vs got in Oregon,” , said Bill - Hanley. “ W o don’t have to exaggerate or tell smy big stories, but just tell them thft truth about the state. What Oregon needs is more farmers to settle up the stats and develop our idle land, and that is the kind of men we’re going to bring here from the middle west.” J. R. Heuring” who w ill do the field work In tbe middle west this summer, has been active in colonisa­ tion work in the northwest for a number of years. He is familiar with the agricultural possibilities and re­ source* of every section o f the state, and as a representative o f the Mast­ er n Oregon Lend Company and the Warm Springs Project, has person­ ally located mote than 250 fam ilies in Oregon during the past five years. Great interest in the plan for land settlement as announced by the State Chamber has been manifested, not only in Oregon, but as far east as Owasso, Oklahoma, and Duluth. Minnesota. Almost every mail brings in inquiries as to when the party w ill leave the middle west for Oregon, ac­ cording to Secretary Quayle. A num­ ber of these have declared themselves ready to Join tbe party when i t starts for the west. The plan for land settlement as announced by tbe State Chamber re­ cently includes tbe grouping together of a large party of prospective set­ tlers to be brought to Oregon from tbe middle west in a body, taking ad­ vantage of the homeeeekers' rates over the lines serving Oregon. A r­ riving in this state, the party w ill be conducted over the various com­ munities by automobile for a personal Inspection of the attractions that the state has to offer. The cooperation of the railroads has beeen assured, and it Is believed that a large number of substantial citizens will be added to the state through this means. ------------- o-------------- ERNEST BALES T A K E N TO 7he Westin^hou8e°compan y" t*he Se*ec^ DENTAL INSPECTION GIVEN TO trical equipment.
