A mammoth ship- numiing piant to construct wooden ves sels tor nver service and for trans oceanic trade probably will be started in Portland within the next 3D days. Portland capitalists, together ' with Spoktne, Seattle and Eastern capital ists, are iinea ot tne enterprise.

While the world's preference may be for steel bottoms, it is our plan now to build nothing but vooden vessels. They aro just as ser vice tide as steel for carrying bulky car gees, but it is next to impossible to get steel. The snipping interests will take any kind of ships that they can get and some of them even prefer wood. "The superior advantages of build ing wooden instead of steel vessels in Portland are obvious. Each ship will take about 2,000,000 feet of lumber.

Hero is a (fnastion that arose in a Canatlian hospital: "I'm an American," you say proudly to a French officer. " "Ah! Xorth or South Amer ican?" he savs. "Xorth." "Ah! From Mexico or from Labrador f" "United States." "Ah, yes, 1 understand." 'I'm an American. 1 you say to a Canadian. "So am I," he says, delight edly. "I'm from Canada." "I'm from the United States," you explain. "Shake," he says. "Always glad to meet an American." " "I'm an American," you say to a war correspondent from South America, speaking in French. "So am I." 'Ah, you speak Spanish thenJ' What republic do you come from ? " "From the united States." "Lucky none of us Americans are in tins w ar, lsn t it I ho says. After a few experiences like this you make your claims to nationality more definite. You say, "I'm from the I'nited States." The big question is "Who is an American!" the orderlies. "He preaches slang," was the gist of their explanation. "He's a revival ist." "Who goes to hear such sermons as that?" "Everybody," said one nurse. "The papers say that thousands of Toronto people go to hear him." "I never can understand you Amer icans," said the officer who had asked the question. "It's just as hard for us Americans to understand you old country folks," said the nurse. The question "Who is this Billy Sun day person'' became persistent. All the home newspapers from Toronto told of his meetings and all the home talk of the Toronto nurses was of the Sun day meetings. One Hritish officer finally appealed to the Canadian Episcopalian parson. " I "v got a book about him and his work," said the parson quietly. "That will answer your question better than ft Mxdame, nr A Shoe for Every Foot.

It be came so popular that the parson do nated it to tho hospital library. Xo growth in grace was evident as a result of Billy's religion; no abate ment was noted in the usual, vain even ing demand for "hot toddy," as a re sult of Billy's anti:nleobolism. But there was a tremendous rise in respect for American slang and an increase in wonder at American institutions. "Most astonshing place, America," was the verdict of most of the officers after they tad completed tho book on Sunday sermons. But tho last you saw of the book which was number 312 it was the grimiest, and most bethumbed volume in the library.
