WASH|NGTONs BIRTHDAY

BRUSSELS, APRIL 5.-No foreign
holiday has ever been celebrated SO
fervently in Belgium as was Washing
tons Birthday, but in the City of Brus-
sells st. Valentine almost usurped the
honor which the Belgians wished to
pay to the memory of Americas first
president. Someone started the story
that st. Valentines Day was the ma
tional fete day of the United States
and consequently on the fourteenth
thousands of citizens wore small Am
erican flags, and letters of good wishes
poured into the American Legation.
The province of Liege made no mis-
take in the matter and the City Coun-
Gil of Liege ordered that Washing
tons Birthday should be celebrated
with formal exercises in the schools
which were also granted vacation on
the twenty-third. The following cir
cular was therefore sent to the head
masters of the various schools: THE
United States of America have, of late,
shown deep interest in the welfare Of
Belgium. By revictualling the popula-
ton which has suffered so much from
the war, America has rendered an i'm
mense service to our country. The
22nd Of February is a national holiday
in the United States. l desire that on
this day the pupils of all professional
schools for girls and of all grammar
schools partake in the celebration ami
that on this occasion the importance OF
the ervices rendered by the American
rep bic to the Motherland and the no
bic example set by this act of inter
rational solidarity be clearly illumined
leave it to your judgment to arrange
the details of the manifestation.

When George III. ascended the
throne of England his wealthy sub
jects were beginning to leave off wigs
and to appear in their own hair, II
they had any, As the sovereign was
himself one of the offenders, the Pc
ruke makers, who feared a serious loss
of trade, prepared a petition In which
they prayed his majesty to be gra-
ciOusly pleased to SHAVE his head" fol-
the good of distressed workmen and
wear a wig, as his father had done be-
fore him.
When the petitioners walked to the
royal palace, however, 1t was noticed
that they wore no wigs themselves
AS this seemed unfair to the onlook-
ers they seized several of the leading
processionists and cut their hair with
any implement that came most readily
to hand.
From this incident arose a host Of
curious caricatures The wooden leg
makers were said to have especial
claims on the kings consideration In
asmuch as the conclusion Of peace had
deprived them of profitable source Of
employment; hence the suggestion that
his majesty should not only wear a
wooden leg himself, but enjoin the peo-
pie to follow his laudable example.

FIRE PREVENTION DAY

Governor Withycombe has proclaimed
October as fire prevention day. Citi-
zens of Oregon communities are urged
to take an inventory Of their fire traps
ON this occasion and set about to re-
move them, and thus prevent serious
fires.
A large percentage of bad fires could
easily he prevented by a little fore
thought in removing debris. Often
people become accustomed to some old,
worthless, unsightIy building. not only
an eyesore to the town but an ever
mcDacing fire trap, Catching from a
carelessIy tossed match or from some
other source the old structure is sud
denly in flames, ignitng valuable
neighboung property. Several months
ago we saw the old Armory 20 up in
Aames. Hood River was never luckier.
If high wind had been blowing the
damage of a night might have reached
a thousand times the worth of the old
structure.
Hood River has a few vacant lots
that should be kept clean % dead veg
citation and litter. We may well Iook
around us on fire prevention day.
