Money Abundant
In Northwest Says
Leading Banker

Protland, Or, Oct. 19.-'fYou can
safely say that business and financial
conditions in the Pacficl northwest are
improving every day, and are now
quite good.
These words are those of A. L. Mills
president of the First National Bank
Some time ago ! made the asser'
ton that business was much better in
the Pacific northwest, says Mr.. Mills,
81 and / am more convinced of it today
than ever before.
"There has never been so much
money brought into this section from
the outside world as during recent
months. Our wheat is selling at the
highest price known, we had a very
big crop of it; all farm products are
commanding good prices and taking all
lines into consideration, i see not the
slightest cause of complaint.
"The banks are overflowing with
money. Our deposits are the greatest
since the bank was organized and we
are willing, no, anxious, to put it into
circulation. Any business man who has
legitimate need for money can get 1t
in abundance; the more he needs and
takes the better for us. We are turning
no one down who has the slightest ex-
cuse to secure credit.
"Our vaults are full of gold, and we
are trying to discover places where it
can be put at a profit We want to
loan money to business interests, not
only for the good it will do business
generally, but for our own sake. A
bank does not want to keep money in
its vaults. 1t must loan it to make
money for its stockholders.
"Our country is getting more pros
porous every day, and the outlook is
even better for the future

Chicago, Oct. l9-President Wilson
arrived at the New York Central sta.
tion at 1:O5 p. m. today. Enormous
crowds met the train and surged
through the station cheering loudly as
the president and his party left the

see the president pass on his way to the
Blackstone hotel. After short rest
at the hotel he left for the Press club,
where he is to speak at luncheon.
En- route from the Blackstone hotel
to the Press club, where he was to be n
luncheon guest, the president again re-
ceived great ovation from people lin
ing both sides OF the street. In some
places the jam threatened to block his
advance entirely. Windows of the large
stores in the Loop district bulged with
people and from one building hundreds
of tiny flags were dropped down on him
as he passed.
The president was enthusiastically re-
ceived by select but small crowd that
occupied every available seat in the
Press club loungipg room where the
was luncheon was served.
Mrs. Wilson accompanied the presi-
dent. She was dressed in purple wore

argument
Is Badly Disgruntled
Roosevelt admittedly is glad to get
out west. 1t has been four years since
he did any western travelling. Then,
too, his day yesterday was not all beer
and skittles. Besides the wrecked
freight train ahead of his special, which
delayed him two hours, the engine
pulling his ear broke down six times.
The last time was at Livingston. There
was a crowd at the station calling for
him. He-was greeted with shouts of
" Woodrow Wilson. Woodrow Wilson

heekling plainly nettled the colonel and
unable to get well started, he shouted
at the men, "that's s right; shout for
Woodrow Wilson # you re too proud to
fight and if the Lusitania sinking
doesH't make your blood corpuscles

more until he reached Louisville for his
first big address of the trip.

his best reception at Corbin. Despite a

this thought by what I saw in a home
visited on a recent club trip. and
made up my mind then to make it
the subject of one OF our club talks.
There were several small children in
this family and at the breakfast table
the morning after my arrival I no
tiCed that each child had its OWL
bowl OF cereal. its individual sugar
bowl and cream pitcher TO match, and
that each one sugared and creamed
its own portion. although I almost
held my breath once or twice when
the awkward little hands nearly tipped
pitcher and bowl over. No accident
did happen. however. and as the moth
er was calmly conversing with me and
paid no attention to the attempts Of
the children TO prepare their cereal,
l decided she knew that they were
to be trusted. The little sets Of dishes
were of fine and dainty china, and all
different in design.
At the noon hour Just before the
family luncheon was served. the moth
er said to the children: Look in the
den, dearies, and see what you will
find there"
The three youngsters raced to the
den and there, on small table, with
their own little chairs about it, was
an attractive lunch all ready for them.
\ bunch Of flowers stood in the ceEtC>
of the table, at each plate was a gin
gerbread man with Currants for eyes,
the meat course was in ramekins. each
with a tiny American flag stuck on
pin in the middle. and the hot bis
cults were the tiny ones that all chill

HOROSCOPE.
The stars incline. but do not compel"
Monday, May ~, 1916.


Monday, May ~, 1916.
An unfortunate day. according to as
trology. Uranus is strongly evil in in
fluence and Mercury is adverse.
Women are warned to pursue routine
occupations, for the rule IS not lucky
for them. especially II they are enga ged
in any work dependent upon publicity.
Actresses should be cautious.
1t is not a propitious day for making
new acquaintanCes and romance Is sub
tect to an unlucky guidance. Susceptible
ity on the part OF men in public office
may lead to scandals. New York and
Washington. D. c.. have an especially un-
favorable planetary government.
This is not a fortunate day for any
diplomatic decision or important con-
tract. The signing Of papers should be
deferred.
Women continue under direction that
is inconsistent TO the superficial observer,
for they will have experiences that are
extreme in all matters relating to their
material interests.
Dress will occupy serious attention,
which will arouse pulpit and press, the
seers predict. While it will be recognized
as one of the fine arts and forced into
a new importance, It may become a ma
tional issue, owing to international prob
lens.
Again the seers prognosticate that a
powerful leader will arise for the final
adjustment of Mexican affairs
Bereavement in the royal family OF
England is repeatedly indicated. July
may be an unhappy month not only for
Great Britain but for Greece, Italy and
Holland.
The heroic death OF famous prelate
in Europe is foreshadowed Troubles in
the Catholic Church also are perslstently
predicted.
Astrologers still announce that the Uni
ted States will escape actual war. al
though the stars indicate vast expendi-
lures for naval and military activities
Persons whose birthdate 1t is have the
augury Of rather tranquil year.
Children born on this day are likely
to be unusually clever and original These
subjects OF Gemini have Mercury as their
principal ruling planet and they may be
doubly endowed with talent
