But by far the targ- er part will carry their own equipment ' and will look rather for camping i grounds and supply facilities. With the closing of the fair there will be ample buildings, spacious and suitable grounds and attractive drives and parks available for the use of tour ists. The most attractive are found in the confines of the proposed Ross. Island-Council Crest site. Robb Ib land itself has long been considered as a possible location for a city aquatic park where boating and bathing may be made a part of the daily program and where aquatic sports may be car ried out. The river at this point is especially suited for this use. North of the bridges the river is covered with a film of burned oil which makes , it unsuited for bathing and pleasure . boating and the presence of much wa ' tor traffic makes it unsafe for boat ; ing and aquatic contests. South of the Hawthorne bridge the black scum ' does riot reach and the traffic is so limited that there is little to inter fere with pleasure boating, bathing and water sports. To remove these conditions at any of the available beaches North of the bridges will Ber- iously hampw the use of the Port of : Portland by the world commerce now ' entering Ross Island and the adjacent Sell wood 'Slough, including the Oaks Amusement Park are admirably suited for such a park. Commencing with the Sellwood Slough of approximately 200 acres, there is at the southeast corner of this tract an unusually good location for a irct natural, amphi theatre and athletic field or stadium ,' under the bluff which recedes in a Semi-circular form at this point. Fart of the remaining tract could be used by the Fish and "Game Commis sion as a concession during the Fair and after its clone -the permanent buildings could be turned over to the City of Portland Park Bureau as an aquarium and park for the study of aquatic biological and botanical life. The north end of the tract from By Die Avenue to Holgate Avenue may well be used for the Machinery Ex hibits of the Exposition and affords an excellent opportunity for the demonstration of water raising de- viWS. hydro-e.ect power senator, I and other machinery of this nature. The bluff at this point averages about 80 feet in height. After the fair is over, this section may well become the habitat of the city's zoological gardens where beautiful natural homes could be provided for the various animals and all disturbing sounds and odors will be far removed from any resi dence section of the city. ThuB the present unsightly Sellwood Slough might become in future years the most celebrated zoological gardens on the Pacific Coast ,t .... , Ross Island itself, by natural con-i tour, area and proximity to the heart! of the city, is better fitted to become a popular resort than either the fa mous Coney Island of New York City, or the equally popular Belle Isle of Detroit Belle Isle consists of 704 acres and was purchased by the City ' of Detroit in 1879 for $200,000 and is today conservatively valued at $17, 000,000. It is visited by 10,000,000 people annually. Figures are not available for Coney Island but the figures are undoubtedly much larger than those for Belle Isle. Ross Is land ccntains approximately 400 acres and its present owner offers to sell it to the city for $200,000 on condition that it become the site of the exposi tion and afterwards remain the pro perty of the city as a permanent park. its value as reclaimed commercial property after the close of th expo- sr. on is estimated at $4,000,01)0 while as a public park Its value would j Increase from year to year.

In this connection it is noted that out of the Panama Pacific Ex position of 1916 came the Civic Cen ter and Auditorium of San Francisco. On the bluff at the northeaBt cor ner of Sellwood Park we suggest a museum and permanent home for the Oregon Historical Society. On the 25 acres along the bluff be tween Holgate and Pershing Ave nues, the concession of the Army and Navy Departments of the Government during the Exposition, could easily become the permanent armory of the Portland National Guard when the exposition closes.

Washington County boosters tor the Ross Isiand-Councel Crest Fair .Site will hold a big get-together dance at the HUlsboro pavillion early in Jan uary if plans now onder way mater ialise. Cost of preparing the answer to the questionnaire submitted by the site committee totaled about $600 to date and it is proposed to utilize the proceeds of this dance to reimburse those individuals and clubs which have advanced the money to pay the engineer!. Tuesday evening a committee of business men from the Beaverton Commercial club visited the HUlsboro club and presented there the matter of the questionnaire. Members of the Hillsboro club received the plan with approval and appointed a com mittee to raise $70 of the needed amount. Mayor Shute was present and assured the committee that the use of the dance pavillion could be se cured any Saturday after the first of the year. . ., The questionnaire haB been ans wered most faithfully by Messrs. Lewis and Clark and will be filed with the site committee of the At lantic and Pacific Highways and Electrical Exposition as soon as the balance of $190 is paid. It is the purpose of the Washington County clubs to raise this money as' soon as possible for this' purpose. The proposed site consists of 810 acres and extends from Council Crest to Ross Island and includes the Sell wood Slough adjoining the Oaks park. Its present assessed' 1 valuation is $746,200. There are very few im provements on this property and those that are there are of a temporary nature and easily removed or utilized. It wilt be necessary to move 9,f00,000 cubic yards of earth and rock in pre paring the site, inis is the smallest quantity of any Bite proposed and the distances to move it and the difficul ties in the way of -preparation are the smallest of any. The average dis tance which material must be moved is only 1000 feet and the greatest dis tance that any part of it need be moved is 1,700 feet. The shortest distance from Broad way and Washington Streets to the proposed site by thw usual route of travel is 1 8-8 miles and the entire site is within 2 miles of the accepted center ut Portland. Already located in this. site are the University of Oregon Medical School, the Multnomah County Hospital and the propostfd Sh'riners' Hospital. Oth er attractions which it is proposed to locate permanently here are the State Occupational School for the Blind, the armory of the Oregon National Guard, a city zoological garden", a stadium and a state camping ground for automobile tuorists; COOPER MT.

BOOZB IN VIOLIN CASE Note A man in Portland was ar rested with a violin case which con tained whiskey. Music gives us all a pbasure Lends enchantment tuTour ear, We all enjoy the band whenever they play, f When we have a little leisure Then Borne medicated tfeer Would have tendencies to drive our careB away. v i But since we have 'jateyUhtUon, n our country at tins time, It makes it more difficult to get' drink, Rut if wet goods is your mission You can purchase some moonshine If you sneak around and pass along a Wink. They have schemed with new devices For to peddle out the booze They are trying every way the law to beat , Sell regardless of their prices For it men are bound to use Finding it in spine hallway or dark ened street. In hotels they are debating With a stranger from some place Talking round so to sell him a quart or two, In the lobbys they are waiting With handbag or a suitcase For the guy who is ready to spend his last sou. Some are experts to scent whiskey By its gurgle and perfume They will search the woodlands and your cellar home They take chances that are risky For two of tHem got a room And they called a man suspicious on tne phone. Soon a tap tap they were hearing In the hallway on their door They opened it and a stranger came Within No arrest was he a-fering For he had dune that before, Selling booze from the case of his old violin. Charms of music had been tested, The melody was not stale Although it was not the kind of strings to plsy So the fellow was arrested, And was taken off to jail So for a while his CASE will be laid away.

EVENING OF DEC. 21 Postponed from This Evening Bcacnee of Diphtheria Scare Big Time Is Promised. The high school carnival was post poned from the evening of Pec. 16 to Dec. 21, because of the threatening of diphtheria. However, since the full quarantine has been removed and all cases have disappeared, the students are going ahead with' new seal for kn evening of fun, hilarity and entertain ment. Among the features of the evening will be a twenty-minute play; fifteen minute concert; eugenics contest, Doctor Schmeiser in charge; Dutch kitchen; Japanese tea garden; con cert; candy and ice cream; bazaar of Christmas presents; fortune teller; hot dogs; museum and Bluebeard's Wives. The concessions will run from the cellar to the garret and all are urged to come after taking a nerve tonic. The purpose of the carnival is to help the football team to pay fot then equipment and to meet the deficit from the annual of "11, Each concession will he a live one and there will not bo a dull moment' from the opening gong to the fall of the curtain. This is a new stunt and is going to be a "Hummer." KEEP ROADS KRKE TO PUBLIC ; DENNIS SEBS BUS MONOPOLY W. B. Dennis, of Carleon, who took an active part in the framing of the present jnutor vehicle law, suggests that if the coming special session of the legislature determines to place place passenger busses and freight trucks under the control of the public service commission the Irw should he religiously so fv guarded ugainst the possibility of creating special priv ileges upon our public highways, "Our state highways are," says he, "like the Columbia river has been, th people's weapon of defense against exorbitant freight and pansengei rates, but if we clone these highways by special privilege we will have thrown our sword into the sea." "Let ns Hsitumu that as many a,p four competing bus line? running between Prn Innd and Salem should sucrot'd in obtaining permits to operate and that the gate should then bo closed. it does net reouire the jmnp-inittfon of Dante to conceive that actual compe tition would noon be wiped out by a combination it tnt by actual cn.l dation nf ownership. Nor does it take turther great stretch of itnagi tion to surmise that the railroad ompunies trio nine! va might tiecoine the real owner of thewe bus lines, pro tected us they would he by exclusive Irancnme privileges. It haw liecn stated in the nunen that the owners of exisling auto bus men and auto truck freight lines are in favor of the MoKer law, which was pc-MHed by the luginicture mil wisely vetoed by Gove rnor Olcott, or t similar Itiw placing them uiiiier thit ontrol and regulation of tho public :ervice commUnion, Thin childlike submission to public control is not the least surprising in view or the pro vision in the Mtiscr law for a cur til'icate of public necessity, ft li minute that provision and i.iae the roud free to ail comers anu 1 wonder how long their enthusiasm for public con trol would remain effervescent. On any of the runs between important towns or the state ext'ltiK ve fran chise privileges would in a compara tively short time become extremely valuable property that could be bar tered In and capitalized for thou- andH and perhops hundreds of thous ands of dollars. It is not to be kiiii- piuted that owners of existing high way transportation lines are aHleuo to this possibility." Certificates oi pulilie necexHity arc requit'tiu before a new railroad or utreot car line can be conn true ted. The theory of the law is protection from ruinous competition and destruction of capital investment in the first rail roads. In the case of the highways the conditions are not analogous, thinks Dennis. "With the railroads you are deal ing," says he, "entirely with private property rights. The railroad buvs its own rignt or way, builds its road bed and lays its tracks at its own ex nense and in addition pays the state enormous sums in taxes. In the case of our public highways, the roadbed has been built by the people entirely at public expense. They are main tained, policed and protected at the expense of the people. They should remain free and open for the use of the public. To give to any priv ileged few an exclusive franchise over any part of our public hiirhwava la repellent to every principle of democ racy. A erooer treatment of the ssua in the view of Dennis is to establish a minimum requirement as to responsi bility to maintain service and the de posit of four suitable indemnifying Donas, leaving tne number of lines to be operated to the determination of iree and open competition. in tne matter of law enforcement Dennis SUfestl that thk authnritv oe joagea soieiy m tne state high way commission and that all matters relating to registration, including the police work necessary to that end, should remain with the secretary of state. As to penalties for violations of th law he recommends a graduated scale of fines and imprisonment with i minimum punalty.
