Women To Perfect An
Auxiliary To Co. M

Tuesday evening, March the 10th,
the ladies of Company NJ, Bird Regt.
Oregon National Guard, are to meet
at the armory and perfect an auxiliary
organization to the company, the mem
bers of which will consist of the wives
and lady friends of the men belonging
to the organization.
Any organization, be it fraternal,
civilian or military is only half com.
plete which does not include the
ladies in its general scope. This
theory is recognized by the men of
Company NJ, and in loyalty to the or
ganization they take this means to pay
homage to the women.
Club rooms up stairs will be arranged
for their accommodation on each drill
night Tuesday evening they will be
handsomely decorated with military
flags, pennants, guidons, arms and ac.
couterments. A light luncheon will be
served consisting of the usual hot
wenies, buns, pickles and coffee. 1t is
expected that the ladies will perfect
an organization, and elect com
mander, vice commander, adjutant and
a top sergeant.
During the next few months it has
been suggested that they cooperate
with the men of the company in raising
fund for the benefit of their organ
ration. Company NJ, is giving a
series of Military Balls and entertain.
ments for the benefit of the company
fund. The next event of which will be
large military masque ball given on
the evening of Thursday, April first.
Invitations will be out for this event

Loss OF APPETITE
Most Successfully Treated by Takina
Hoods Sarsaparlla.

Loss of appetite is accompanied by
loss of vitality, which is serious.
It is common in the spring because
at this time the blood is impure and
impoverished and fails to give the
digestive organs what is absolutely
necessary for the proper perform
ance of their functions.
Hoods Sarsaparilla, the old reli-
able all-the year round medicine, is
especially useful in the spring. Get
it from your druggist today. BY
purifying and enriching the blood
and giving vitality, vigor and tone,
it is wonderfully successful in the
treatment of loss of appetite and the
other ailments prevalent at this time.
1t is not simply spring medicine--it
is much more than that-but it is the
best spring medicine.
Hoods Sarsaparilla makes the rich
red blood the digestive organs need.
