It has been definitely decided that
the commercial, industrial and develop
ment organizations of Portland will
hold a tig industrial and land and pro
ducts show in Portland from October
26 to November 14. and the armory,
together with one or two more tempor
ary structures, has been selected as
the site. Louis. W Huckley, formerly
of the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific exposition,
has been selected to manage the big
shew. About 80,000 square feet of
space will be utilized and this will be
nearly equally divided between soil
products and products of workshop.
About 12,000 square feet will be used
to show municipal and educational
work. It is expected that the best
showing of apples and other fruit ever I
made in Oregon will be found at this

TRAVEL RECORDS
One may enjoy the delights of travel
at home by means of the new illus
trated talking machine records. The
most famous lecturers in the world
may be brought into your home, just
as the music records carry the voices
of great singers to every part of the
world. You need only place a record
in your talking machine and open the
illustrated booklet which accompanies
it to enjoy a profusely illustrated lec
ture. No trouble or expense is spared
to secure the best talent. The voices
which describe famous cities and coun
tries are those which have charmed
large audiences on many lecture tours
throughout the country. The photo
graphs which follow the lecturer step
by step are the (inset obtainable. The
owner of a travel record enjoys a front
seat at every lecture. Still another
advantage is that the lecturer, how
ever high priced he may be, will re
peat his travel talk obligingly as often
as one desires. A complete library of
travel talks of cities and countries the
world over is being prepared by the
Hamburg-American line so that one
may listen to their favorite lecturer on
a wide variety of subjects. The first
of these records, which are of standard
make, is sold for the nominal sum of
25 cents to cover the expense of pack
ing and shipping. This record, entitled
"A Day in Berlin," has been prepared
and delivered by the celebrated lectur
er, b. M. Newman. The travel talk
carries the reader, or rather the listen
er, rapidly through the Kaiser's capi
tal, stopping at the principal points of
interest and recalling much interesting
history. The accompanying book con
tains twenty full page illustrations re
produced from photograph which vis
ualize the scenes described in the lec
ture. This record and booklet may be
obtained at any of the branch offices of
the HambuJg-Amcrican line in the
large cities or from the Travel Depart
ment, 45 Broadway. New York Citv.
Other travel talks will follow on days
in Paris, London, Rome and other
cities and describe little journeys in all
parts of the world.

A clergyman was very anxious to in
troduce some new hymn books into the
church, and arranged with his clerk
that tbe latter was to give out the no
tice immediately after the sermon.
The clerk, however, had a notice of
his own that he wished to read first,
with reference to the baptism of in
fants. Accordingly, at the close of the
sermon he said: "All who have chil
dren whom they wish to have baptised
are to send in their names at once to
the clerk."
The clergyman, who was very deaf,
thinking that the clerk was giving out
the hymn book notice, rose and said :

have seen raw wool, one of the best
tariff barometers there is, sell higher
than ever before.
They have seen delicate a railroad
situation, that would have created a
financial panic at any time in the past,
studied and pondered over in a way
that has simply taken the breath from
speculators. The people have refused
to become excited over it. The) want
it settled everywhere, but they want it
settled right.
Why? Because the railroad industry
is not the one dominating industry of
the country any longer. While finan
ciers have been juggling railroads the
past 25 years business men have been
building up other great enterprises all
over this land.
1 his is a bigger country than it ever
was before. Its potential possibilities
are being more and more realized in
every direction. The farmers have be
come scientists, and the arid lands and
the swamp lamia are being reclaimed
everywhere and being made to yield in
sucn abundance as was never known
before in the history of farming.
In the South, malaria has been con
quered and the rich swamp lands are
no longer the terror they were. Irri
gation and dry farming nave brought
new prosperity to the West and South
west. Water power is being conducted
over wires hundreds of miles where
formerly it was all but wasted. The
oil lands and the mineral wealth have
burst the bounds of former monopolies
and opened up vaster possibilities than
ever before, and the inventive genius
of the American haa nevet been idlo.
New miracles are daily being wrought
by invention.
Why, then, have we had a business
depression in the face of these things?
Simply because a great many people
thought we ought to have it ; we should
have it; and must have it; it was due.
It was largely a mental state. There
was no real need of it. or for it. Busi
ness men see that more clearly now.
But many of them are more satisfied
apparently because we have had it.
And they have learned something.
They have learned that you cannot
have panics unless there is "tight
money" unless the reserve is tied up,
as it was for the past 50 years tied up
when it was most needed. This busi
ness depression we have been through
has been valuable, then, in that it has
demonsrtated to all the people the wis
dom of the present system of a flexible
currency. The old conditions have dis
appeared forever. Panics need not be
feared.
As Mr. A. W. Douglas, of St. Louis,
said at the Economical club a few
nights ago, there has iieen a curious
psychological phenomenon during this
business depression the people the
common people have been optimistic
through it all. They left their money
in the banks. The common people had
more confidence than the so-called
financiers, and when the common peo
ple have confidence you can't have
panics.
So now that the lesson has been
learned, and that the greatest crops
in the history of the country are in
sight, it is up to everybody to forget
the mental depression, start in quickly
and get aboard the prosperity train
that has been simply standing still on
the tracks waiting for the engineer to
oil up for a long run. Uncle Dudley.

CASHMERE MAN
PAYS VALLEY VISIT
John F. Sugrue, manager of the
Cashmere Fruit Growers' Union, an
affiliation of the Northwestern Fruit
Exchange, was here the latter part of
last week visiting the local office of
the central selling agency. Mr. Sug
rue, who made a tour of the valley
with J. C. Skinner, local manager of
the Northwestern Exchange, says that
he has never passed through a more
delightfully situated community.
"You have the soil and the loca
tion," he said, "and the water for irri
gation. But I don't think you are us
ing enough water here. Your growers
will have to come to irrigation. I
think it will give them more tonnage
and make for surer crops in every
way."
Mr. Sugrue declares that the crop
conditions in his district are excellent.
Mr.Sugrue declares that Hood River,
for the reason that it grows berries
and cherries, is in a better condition
for securing labor than Cashmere.
"We have to pay the highest price
of any district in the northwest for our
labor," he said. "Last year our pack
ing cost eight cents a box. Here you
can get the men that have been en
gaged in your berry and cherry crops
to remain for the apple thinning and
harvest, and you can easily draw on
the Willamette valley hop pickers.
There we do not have such a rotation.
Many of the growers are going in for
hogs, but they donot take many labor
ers to care for them."
When you feel lazy, out of sorts and

made me sorrv for him. 1 had been
interviewed the day before myself.
When he sat he hunched down in his
chair, resting on the small of his back,
with his legs crossed and propped up
upon a large wooden wastebasket the
attitude of a lanky boy. And, despite
his gray hair and the netted wrinkles
about his eyes, his face is compara
tively youthful, too. His mouth ia
wide and determined, and it ia capable
of an exceedingly dry grin, in which
the eyes collaborate. They are fine,
keen eyes, set high under the brows,
wide apart, and they seem to express
shrewdness, kindness, humor and a dis
tinct wistfulness. Also, like every
other item in Mr. Ford's physical
makeup, they indicate a high degree
of honesty. There never was a man
mure genuine than Mr. Ford. He haa
not the faintest sign of that veneer so
common to diatinguikhed men, which
is most eloquently described by the
slang term "front." Nor is he, on the
other hand, one of those men who (like
so many politicians) try to simulate a
simple manner. He is just exactly
Henry Ford, no more, no less; take it
or leave it.
And if you are any judge of charac
ter at all, you know immediately that
he is a man whom vou can trust. 1
would trust him with anything. He
didn't ask me to, but I would. 1 would
trust him with all my money. And,
considering that 1 Bay that, 1 think he
ought to be willing, in common cour
tesy, to reciprocate.
He told us about the Ford business.
"We've done two hundred and five mil
lions of business to date," he said.
"Our profits have amounted to about
fifty-nine millions. About twenty-five
per cent has been put back into the
business into the plant and the
branches. All the actual cash that
waB ever put in was $28,000. The rest
has been built up out of profits. Yes,
it has happened in a pretty short time;
the big growth has come in the last six
years."
I I asked if the rapid increase had sur
prised him. "Oh, in a way," he said.
"Of course we couldn't be just sure
what she was going to do. But we
figured we had the right idea."
"What is the idea?" I questioned.
Then, with deep sincerity, with the
conviction of a man who states the very
foundation of all that he believes,
Mr. Ford told us his idea. His state
ment did not have the awful majesty
of an utterance by Mr. Freer. He did
not llame, although his eves did seem
to glow with his conviction.
It is one model !" he said. "That's
the secret of the whole doggone thing."
(lhal is exactly what he said. 1 noted
it for "character.")
Having revealed the crux of things,
Mr. Ford directed our attention to the
little toy Ford in the glass case.
"There Bhe is," he said. "She's al
ways the same. 1 tell everybody that's
the way to make a success. Every
manufacturer ought to do it. The thing
is to nna out something that everybody
is after and then make that one thing
and nothing else. Shoemakers ought
to do it. They ought to get one kind
qf shoe that will suit everybody, in
stead of making all kinds. Stove men
ought to do it, too. 1 tbld a stove man
that just the other day."
That, I oelieve, is, briefly, the busi
ness philosophy of Henry Ford.

BLOODLESS BATTLES
AT CLATSOP BEACH
Clatsop Beach resorts will be unusu
ally gay during the midsummer season,
due to the moblizing of three thousand
troops, embracing the United States
regulars from Fort Vancouver, the
Idaho National Guard and the Oregon
National Guard, 'the arrangements
have been made for the maneuvers
which will continue over a period of
fourteen days, commencing July 12.
The general encampment will be near
Gearhart Park, overlooking the Pacific
ocean.
Every branch of the military service
will be represented and will be seen
practicing bloodless warfare. The op
portunity will be afforded summer col
onists and visitors at the nearby beach
resorts to be spectators of the various
operations of the nation's defenders.
Part of the maneuvers take place on
the broad oceanside meadows, where a
golf course ia laid. Back of the mead
ows is a fringe of forest, also creeks,
hills and a country of varied topog
raphy which is admirably adapted, say
the military experts, for mimic war.
There will be artillery, cavalry, signal
and hospital branches of the service ;
also three regimental bands of from 35
to 40 pieces each.
The military display, band concerts,
drills, fetes and receptions and other
social activities are expected to draw
immense throngs to the recreation re
treats of the Clatsop Beach section.
