Adaptation by the oranges of Hood
River county of the chautauqua idea to
their summer meetings this year shows
appreciation of one of the fundamental
ideas of the chautauqua movement,
which is the creation of an atmosphere
especially suited for the mutual pur-
poses of those who attend. The grang-
ers will camp in a pleasant grove,
where the beauties of nature will add
to their enjoyment. and they will be
far enough away from the distracting
influences of those who are not in full
accord with the serious educational
purpose of the gathering. Perusal of
the program shows nice balance be-
tween outdoor sports and study of top
les of interest to farmers and fruit
growers. and their is measure OF
other entertainment. But as was to
have been expected and is proper, con-
sideration of the greater problems of
everyday life will consume most of the
time. Oregonian.

0UR BUYER, Mr.. McCarty, left this
week for his regular sem-annual trip
to the Eastern markets to select our
fall and winter merchandise. We feel that
it is greatly to your advantage as well as
our own to go direct to the mills and larg-
est wholesalers and personally select mer-
chandise we need. In this way we get
what you want and get it at the right prices.
All the big wholesalers and mills have many
new articles and weaves that you would
never get chance to buy at all unless you
were right there to pick them out.
You will find by comparison of quality for
the money that you can always do better at
the Paris Fair, due-entirely to the fact that
we buy for cash, thus getting the very best
prices the mills and wholesalers can offer as
they are anxious to sell and retain the trade
of the cash buyers. Our terms are strictly
cash and we endeavor to give you the Big
gest Values we possibly can on all classes
of merchandise.
We want to thank you for your past pat
ronage and trust that your treatment has
been such that we may expect continu-
ance in the future.
You will find us willing and anxious to
make any complaints right. We want you
to be satisfied with every purchase you make

PRINTERS FEEL War COST

In no other industry, perhaps, have
materials so increased in price since
the beginning Of the European war a.
in printing. The making of papers
and inks requires certain chemicals
that were formerly produced in Ger
many. In numerous cases it is no
longer a matter of price. articles for
merly obtainable are no longer in the
market.
Commenting on the paper situation
the Eugene Guard says:
White paper is one of the great items
of expense in newspapers, and in the
last few months its price has advanced
20 per cent, so per cent, and even in
some cases 100 per cent. The advance
in other materials, while not so great,
is very material, and increase the
gravity of the problem.
The magazines are feeling the same
pressure. The August issue of the
Worlds Work, for instance, devotes
considerable space to the paper situa-
tion, while Life, the Independent and
other periodicals have explained to
their readers the necessity Of changes
in their circulation schemes because of
the emergency.
Newspaper and magazines alike are
doing their best to tide over the situa-
tion with no radical changes. 1t is
only prudent, however, to recognize the
fact that if the advances of the last
few months continue, the entire peri
odical business will have to be read
justed.

The LOOP HIGHWAY

To the people of Hood River county
and eastern Oregon it must be particu-
larly gratifying that the United States
Forestry Department has designated as
Project /" the proposed Loop high.
way extending out of Portland up the
Columbia River highway. through the
Hood River valley, around the east
base of Mount Hood and thence along
the old Barlow road and down the
Sandy river back to Portland.
Still the act of the Highway Com
mission in making application to the
federal government has antagonized
southern Oregon apparently. The Eu-
gene Guard in an issue Of last week
says:
The federal good road appropriation
was intended to aid in the development
of states, especially those with large
areas where il was improbable that
roads could be constructed in the usual
manner. The basis of the appropria-
tion made by the federal government
was area, population and rural routes.
The three factors were taken into con-
sideration and the money set aside for
the various states. Scenic highways
were not given a place in the calcula-
tions by the federal government. Yet
in Oregon, it is proposed to spend Ore
CONS share on one road which is almost
exclusively In that class.
ln their plans for improving the Loop
highway the United States Forestry
Department was applying the princi-
Piles of the first sentence of the above
paragraph. 1t was improbable that the
Loop highway would ever be built from
state or county funds. II is true that
the way is most scenic one, and that
Is fortunate. But the route will be
utilitarian. Feeders to the road will
be pushed into the remote sections of
Wasco county. Ranchers of those iso.
lated regions will be given access to
markets. But one of the most impor-
tant features of the highway will come
from the inestimable value to be de-
rived by the foresty department in
coping with possible fires in the ma.
tional forest around Mount Hood.
1t may be true that the Columbia
River highway proper may be practi-
cally altogether scenic route. But it
is not fact that the Highway Com
mission has decided to spend practically
all Of Uregon's fund on that route. II
may be that the most of the fund from
federal sources will 60 to the Columbia
River highway. But comparatively
small portion of state funds will be
used by the state in matching the fed
eral fund. s. Benson and other Port.
land men are putting up the larger
share of the money, and thus the state
funds can be applied to roads in other
sections. Multnomah county has given
Oregon some of the best advertising
the state has ever had through the con-
struction of the Columbia River high
way. Not one cent was asked from the
state to be used in this work. II is no
more than right that the progressive
and public spirited men of Portland
should get recognition. Southern Ore
gon should get her just portion of road
funds. We do not believe that portion
of the state should be neglected. But
the Guard should remember that part
of Oregon, and great part of the com.
m0nwealth, lies east of the Cascades.

JAMES WHITCOMB RILEY

To the literary world he will be
known as James Whitcomb Riley. To
his Indiana friends he was Jim Riley.
To the children, of the past decade and
more, of Greenfield and indianapolis,
where he was best known, he was
Uncle jim. Every boy and girl in
town knew Uncle jim, and he knew
them, but he never called them by
their real names. If the youth were
red headed it was probable that he won
the name of "Gold Fish," But no
youngster ever resented Jim Riiey's
calling him names. They were not
meant to deride.
James Whitcomb Riley died last
month. His name will live as long as
books exist, and the children, as we'll
as old folks, will derive pleasure from
his quaint expressions for continuing
generations. At times the great Hoo.
sier poet allowed his mind to ponder
over unseen depths and he dipped his
pen into the ink of mystery. The
comparatively few works produced
while he was in this mood, however,
are but little known. He was at bis
best when dealing in his Hoosier way
with the simple everyday life of the
country. His was gentle, kind and
sympathetic soul. and st. Peter, we
think, stopped for time his never
ending duties and passed the time of
day as he opened the gate for the soul
of Riley to pass into the Eternal City.
The following tribute to Riley. writ.
en- by Bide Dudley. is taken from the
New York Evening World:
Well. goodby, Jim: take keer yerself!
You've crossed the Great Divide.
Yer with that dear old sweetheart, Jim,
There on the other side.
A tears in Orhpant Annie's eve,
A Jumps in Sifee's throat.
An Jim, they's quite raft of US
That's in the same old boat.
Well. goodby. Jim: take keer yerself!
Yer dead, but'still you'll live
In human hearts as long as God
Has human life to give.
You b'longed to Him, Jim, anyway,
An you was only lent.
A nations everlastin' love,
Shall be yer monument.

Epidemic of Influenza Endangering
the Nation.
Washington Dispatch. J

washington Dispatch.)
Influenza is spreading over the
United States from coast to coast In
the most serious epidemic ever
known, taking a large toll In lives
and causing economic loss by in
capacitsting workers In all walks OF
life. Reports from public health ser
vice officials made public Monday
night by Surgeon General Blue show
that already the disease has created
a grave problem for many of the
larger cities, and is spreading to the
rural communities.
New York, Chicago, Philadelphia,
Boston. San Francisco. Seattle, Cleve-
land and Detroit reported the disease
widely prevalent. Cleveland and De-
troit each have probably 100000
cases. or the larger cities Buffalo
Pittsburg, Baltimore, San Diego. Dali
las and Mobile reported no signs OF
an epidemic.
There is practically noting the fed
eral government can do toward aid
ing in suppression OF the epidemic.
1t must be dealt with by local author
tiles. and they, in turn. it is explain
ed, are almost helpless without CO.
operation from the public. Surgeon
General Blue said Monday night he
had called for reports from all parts
of the country with the hope that
publicity would tend to stimulate
this cooperation.
