british ARMY CHIEF
Held UP BY Lions
General SHUTS, Commander
in German East Africa,
Has Unique Adventure
HIPPOPOTAMI CHARGE
THE MOTORCARS

General SHUTS, Commander-in-
Chief of Britain's "ragtime army" in
German East Africa, with his staff,
according TO a dispatch from Cape
Town. recently had the unique
experience of being held up, not by
the Teuton enemy. but by a combined
force Of lions and leopards. These
and other wild animals are nightly
providers around the camps. and their
crowlings are the lullaby to which
the now usually rain-soaked soldiers
doze off when they have wearied of
resisting the mass attacks OF Big
hungry and not-to-be-denied mos
quitoes' and a varied assortment Of
other insect pests which become eI-
pert at working their way through
and under the netting entanglements
designed to circumvent them.
The General and his staff, who were
without an escort. found themselves
at niehtfall some miles from camp
and. trying to pillow their way to II
in automobiles, sunk in mud over ulo
axles. II was not long before tne

AFFAIR is ARRANGED FOR NEXT
THURSDAY EVENING; FIRST
EVENT SUCCESS.

So successful was the dancing par
ty given last evening In the Eagle
Woodman hall for the benefit of Pen
dleton's campaign for the election of
Rose Festival queen that the com
mittee of young men and women who
sponsored it have decided to give an
other party rAxt Thursday evening
1t will be held i'll the same hall.
Despite the fact that the dance last
night had been arranged upon short
notice and that it had been sand
wiched into week heavy with social
events, the attendance was quite large
and the net proceeds will be suffi-
cient to purchase several hundred
votes.
Miss Muriel Sailing. the Pendleton
candidate, was present and the COM
mittee sold her dances by numbers,
adding materially to the FUNDS by this
means.
The dance next Thursday evening
promises to be much larger. A num-
Der of out-of-town guests last evening
asked permission to sell tickets in
their home communities in order tc
make It a countrywide affair.
