      "The Oregon State Bankers' Association met in Bend on June 7 and 8, 1918. The committee's plan put a dinner at the Pilot Butte Inn on the Friday, a day among the logging camps and mills on the Saturday, and in the Saturday evening a song service by the Emblem club.",
      "Then the detail that matters, and the notice states it flatly.",
      "Cheney had organised the Bend Park Company's publicity from Seattle, written its books, and founded the Emblem Club in 1912 with himself as its only officer, the Taboo. By 1918 he had been a Seattle businessman for years and would be in Oklahoma within about a year. This notice catches him in between — still close enough to the club he made that a committee in Bend could expect him to come and run the programme, and he wired ahead to say he would.",
      "It is a plan made in advance. Whether he came is established by a later page, not this one."
