ILLUSTRATED STORY OF
FRIENDSHIP TO Be TOLD
PYTHIANS AND FRIENDS INVITED
TO HEAR NOTED LECTURER
TONIGHT.

At the oregon theatre this evening
the illustrated lecture by George w.
PennIman OF Massachusetts, will be
given for the benefit OF members OF
the knights OF Pythias, and their
families and for all others who de-
sire to attend, the meeting being open
to the public without charge.
Mr. Penniman went TO Syracuse on
the Island OF Sicily. and there per-
sonally took pictures OF those scenes
made sacred TO Pythians by the great
est example OF friendship that adorns
the pages OF history. The scenes
flashed upon the canvass include views
in anu around Syracuse, castle halls
and Pythian homes erected by the
order-history, art. romance. beauty,
patriotism and fraternity-works OF
art in colors. "The lecture in itself
is interesting and entertaining in its
fullest sense, whether one is a men,
Der OF the order or not. one OF the
best you will ever have the oppor-
tunity to listen to. lecture that held
the last supreme convention of the
Knights OF Pythias OF several thou
sand members under its magic spell
from the first word to the last" says
Davis OF Union, who saw II at
the supreme lodge.

The war office today issued an Of

SLAMS have captured the great for.
tIess In Galicia. The slays began
their siege many months ago but
were unable TO take the city through
assault. The end. however, has been
forecasted for weeks by the Petro-
grad government as the garrison OF
the beleaguered city has been rapid
ly running short OF food and war
supplies. The Russians have contin-
uously bombarded the defenses OF the
city and have repulsed every attempt
OF Germans and Austrians to raise
the siege.
When the Russians entered the fort
ress they found the Austrians in the
last extremties OF disease and hun
ger. Their suffering had been in
tense and apparently the decision to
su render was the realization that II
was impossible to hold out. The Rus
slams spoke highly OF the bravery and
herolsm OF the defenders who had
fought until their condition was abso-
lutely desperate.
