FOR LOGANBERRY POEM Here is a chance for a bright student in the .Salem high school or the univer sity to earn some spending money, the Portland Ad club decided to start a big advertising campaign for the loganberry, and to interest the school children of the entire state, has offered prizes amounting to $250 to the stu dents who will submit the best poems on the loganberry that can be set to music. The contest is on uow, and will be open until the last day of this month. For the best words, or poem, the prize is 125, and for the next best T5. As a third nrize. the award will be 50. and j even this amount is worth burning a lot Ti of midnight electric light and the trou Jjble of looking up a rhyme book for suitable words to jingle with tho word T loganberry. I The Ad club intends to have the best song adapted as the urrtclal loganberry soiic and to have it introduced in all the ti public schools, with the pictures of the writer oi me woros aim composer ui me music. If the student can compose a jolly, jingling song, so much the better, but the contest is just for the words. A committee of five of the leading educators of the state will pass on the merits of the poem. This committee will meet in the rooms of the Chamber of Commerce, Portland, at the close of the contest, October 31, and have the words sung to some populni ong, to ascertain if they have the right swing and correct ideas about loganberry juice. Should there be any ambitious poets in the schools of the city, here is their chance for earning a little pin money. Send the poem to the Portlnnd Ad elub. Mqltnomah Hotel, Portland, care of the song committee. Possibly it might be a good idea to inclose stamps for the re turn, should the poem be found not available. , .Tnst to give an idea of how a song can be written about the loganberry as a theme, here is one by Dean Col lins that was sung by the Ad club quartet nt the luncheon last Wednes day: Loganberry Juice. (Tune: "When You Wore a Tulip.") 'Twos in a native garden that the Blackberry was wed. And got his bride, 'tis said, a nice rasp berry red: And now throughout -the country tho people hnil her huskv son, Tho Loganberry, pride of Oregon.
