That the first convention of the Central Oregon Development Leoguc at I'rineville thin Friday and Satur day will be attended by a large dele gation of Hend people ta assured. The local interest is due to tho pre liminary missionary work of J. J. Sayer, field secretary of the Oregon Development League, who was here last week working on behalf of the get-together meeting; the enthusi asm nroused by Manager C. C. Chapman of the Portland Commer cial Club at his address last night, and perhaps chiefly because local people realize that Bend is primarily responsible for the inauguration of the Central Oregon League, and are determined that this place be well represented. Friday morning the Bend boosters who ore scheduled to forget their location and become Central Oregon boosters first, last and all the time, go to the county seat, where ar rangements for their accommoda tions have been made. Delegations from all the towns of south-central Oregon are expected. Many Portland business men will attend. President Gray of tho Hill lines will be one of the principal speakers, many other prominent rail road officials also being on hand. Bill Hanley of Burns will preside. There will be five sessions. Friday morning there will be ad dresses of welcome, Bill Hanley and C. C. Chapman being listed among the speakers. Friday afternoon "Cooperation" will be the subject for discussion, and in the evening President Gray will be the principal speaker, the subject being "Central Oregon's Resources." Saturday morning special commercial club methods and the use of the local press in publicity work will be dis cussed, the afternoon session being devoted to talks upon good roads, dry farming, irrigating and experi ment stations.
