A Bouquet For Rice

The following is from the daily
with Us Today" column in the Port
land Evening Express:
Now here's Dan Recall pep and
srice--a man of great renoWn. In
singing songs and telling yarns, he
sure can beat the town.
Daniel J. Rice is one OF those clever
guys" who can show you by a Won
derful mathematical camoufiage how
you can leave your family a million
dollars by insuring your life at a
trifling cost per year and then leaves
you feeling like q Vanderbilt until
your policy comes In, when you dis
cover that the difference between the
! premium and what you are worth to
your sorrowing relatives after rigor
motis has set in would buy about two
I round trips to Evergreen during the
present high price of carfaes. Spe-
officially speaking, Mr.. Rice lis one of
the high line agents of the Portland
branch of the Metropolitan life In
surance Company. He also works for
Uncle Sam in the infants department
in other words. sells Thrift Stamps or
baby bonds" In this line he has
shown his patriotism in convincing
fashion, and he insists that all his
policy holders come across for war
stamps as we'll as insurance. Dan
Rice j.; always one of the leading
spirits at all house parties or camp
ing expeditions. While he does not
possess the dramatic tenor of Ca
russo, yet he can 'render'Tthe popular
ballads of the day in fne'style and as
a story teller he is in class by him
self. his repertoire far exceeding in
variety that of any graphophone on
the market. Mr. Rice wasiformerly a
district superintendent for the Metro
politan at Augusta. but hearing that
there was movement on foot to
bring the capitol to Portland. he
thought he would come along as an
advance agent and look UP good site
for the building. The place looked so
good to him that he decided to set up
his wigwam here.
