Senior Play SWells
Red Cross Finances

The largest crowd which has
jammed into the high school gymnasi'
um for a senior class play saw the
creditable presentation of "A Russian
Honeymoon" last Friday evening
Every one of the senior actors acquit-
ted themselves well and the play was
a success both from an artistic and
monetary point of view. The pro-
ceeds go to the Ashland chapter of
the Red Cross. The synopsis of the
play follows;
Synopsis
The rising curtain discloses the In
terror of the house of Ivan the Shoe
maker. The samovar burns on the
table. The lamp burns under the
Virgins picture. A wolf skin is nail
ed to the wall, High up above the
stove, covered with sheepskins,
lounges a peasant smoking, while
others drink around the table, dur
ing the hour of recreation. Outside,
the snow is falling in thick flakes;
inside the log fire is roaring Justify.
Wedding bells are Ginning; men and
maidens clad in gay peasant garments
are marching in procession to the
church.
Gustave, Count Woroffski, has
married Poleska de Fermstein, only
to find that early In the honeymoon
she develops such traits of temper
and pride as will render their mar
ried life insupportable, unless he can
find some means to subdue her. He
accordingly goes before her to an es-
tate, lately become his by inheritance,
where he enters the service of a shoe
maker, Ivan, under the assumed
name Of Alexis Petrovitch, and awaits
the coming OF his wife. Upon her
arrival he tells her that he is Alexis,
serf, having married her on a false
pretense, and that she, being his wife.
is serf, too. He sets her to sew and
to spin; he tames her as Petruchio
tames Katherine. She, however,
manages to send an appeal to the
Counts sister, for protection, and the
second act closes with the arrest of
Alexis by his own guards.
The third act shows a drawing
room in the Chateau Woroffski.
where the Baroness has summoned
Poleska to state her wrongs. Poleska
obtains from the Baroness an order
OF separation, and, having obtained
1t, repents, declares that though her
husband is a serf, she cannot leave
him, finally see Gustave appear In his
true character, and is folded in his
arms. Love has conquered pride.

Demand for Annals
Exceeds the Supply

The best high school annual yet"
came off the press of the Ashland
Printing Company last Friday, and
by Friday evening every one of the
275 copies had been sold and the
demand threatened to swamp the
business managers. Fifty more Or
ders than could be filled came in.
The students were greatly pleased
with the artistic chronicle of their
years work, and the book is for a
fact one of the most clever publica-
tions of its kind ever put out in Ore
gon. With the exception of the an
nouncements of two colleges, the 90
page book is free from advertise
ments and is full of fine illustrations
and bright material. 1t is printed in
green ink on white paper. white and

inality of Editor Abbott and his staff.

What Good Roads
Mean to the Farmers

Seven Of Portland's leading hotels
annually disburse among Oregon pro
ducers $350,O00 for the products Of
the farm. OF that total at least
$4,000 is distributed direct to the
small farmer for poultry, butter, eggs
milk, cream and vegetables. The re-
naming $4,000 is paid out for
ham, bacon, fish and fresh meat.
Although the foregoing figures are
those Of the hotels which handle the
bulk Of the transient travel in Port
land they do not show all that the
transient travel means to the Oregon
farmer.
Hundreds of tourists frequently
take their meals at a grill, restaurant
or cafeteria not connected with the
hotel at which they are registered.
IL obtainable, these figures would
materially swell the grand total of
what this business means to Oregon
producers.
One of the arguments used against
the $6,O00.000 road bond bill is that
the roads to be hard surfaced under
the provisions of the measure will be
Scenic roads" rather than market
roads. The figures quoted above
would indicate that the farmer has a
direct and material interest in any
plan OF road building such as is pro-
vided for II it will make more accessi-
BILE a market such as Portland at
fords for his products.
AS an illustration of what good
roads mean to the farmer, one Port
land hotel pays one producer annu-
ally $4,000 for eggs alone. He pays
33 cents dozen under contract
throughout the year.
There is no question but that with
the completion of the roads designat-
ed in the bond bill Oregon will at
tract a good share of the tourist bust.
ness now largely monopolized by Call.
fornia and estimated to be worth to
that state annually 100000, 900.
The Oregon farmer will prosper In
proportion as the state is made more
accessible to tourists through the con
struction of permanent roads whicl
at the same time will encourage LAND
development and make more access,
BILE the markets of the state.

About 1000 Men
Enlist From State

Although Oregon's quota of the
100000 army to be raised is estimat-
ed at about $500 men, this state al
ready has raised approximately 1000
in addition to whatever the selecti,e
draft may call for. In other words,
Oregon is raising three times as
many men as the state will be called
on to furnish for the new army.
1t is not known whether enlist
ments in the regular service will be
credited to Oregon, or whether the
state will be credited for the national
guard in computing the number re-
quired from this state for the select
i've draft
Thus far, however Oregon hos
made splendid showing of patriot
ism and there has been a generous
response to the call to the colors. OF
the 100000 soldiers of the regular
standing army which the government
is raising, Oregon's quota was 1874.
This number has been exceeded, for
there weie 1888 enlistmenus n the
regulars from the Porria.i1 recruiting
office in April, and in the first three
days of this month 158 were enlisted,
making 1891 enlistments since April
1, matter of AZ more men than Ore
CONS quota. This does not include
the 245 enlistments in the army dur
ing March.
Enlistments in the navy number
1,133. Portland was one of the two
cities which furnished its quota in
the first 20 days of April. Portland
was asked for 500 men for the navy
by April 20, and this number was ex-
ceeded.
Marine corps enlistments run into
several hundreds.
The 3rd regiment Of infantry is
recruited to 2,002 men, the war
strength. The coast artillery, which
has not been called yet, has 1,4OO
men, and as soon as the coast artil-
lery is summoned its enrolment will
run up to 1900. There is big batch
of men being held for enlistment in
this arm Of the service when the
time comes. The naval militia, which
is already at sea, numbers approxi-
mately 200 men. There are $50 men
In battery A, and there are three
cavalry troops with 225 men.
All these men are in addition to
the quota which Oregon will be re-
quested to furnish for the army of
500, 900.
No account Is taken, either, of the
500 men who have applied for COM
missions in the officers reserve
corps at San Francisco, nor of the
home guard organizations.

large armies in Egypt. several other parts of Africa, Mesopotamia, Pales- tine and at Saloniki. The word main- tain means that we keep that huge mass of men up to fighting strength constantly replacing the terrific drain of killed wounded and sick.
 German propa gandists, here with the idea of creating friction between the Allies have tried to spread the legend that Britain keeps the bulk Of her army in England to repel inva- sion. That is characteristically un- true. The military forces in England consist of troops in course of training, of units of oldish men of little mili tary value. and of the last reserve line. which we still call by the name of volunteers, or better, home defense men. All of these latter are over the military age of 41.'
 Lord Northcliffe then told what had been accomplished by the Over Seas Club, which has 100000 mem bers of both sexes and all ages. About 12,0O0 of it's young men have travelled across the oceans to join the armies in Europe. It has raised $2,O00,o0o for patriotic purposes. The Over Seas Club Tobacco Fund has raised. adnninistrated and expended over S1,- 100000 for the sending of "smo<es' to the fighting men and the hospitals. This fund has the direct sanction and approval of the War Office.
 Brig. Gen. White is doing very fine work in his recruiting campaign among British subjects over here the speaker added. It must be re- mem bered that he has many difficult ties of an economic nature to deal with Every man of military age must offer himself, whether single or married. If he Is not fit for active service, the military authorities will tell him so. His duty is to offer him. self, and I am quite certain that Gen. eral Whites appeal will be fully an- wered by all Britons of military age.

PREDICT ATTACK ON BAGDAD.
Von Falkenhayn to Reorganize Turks
 in Asia Minor.

New York, July 11.-Persons in a position to speak with authority, who have returned recently from Con- stantinople, say Gen. Won Falken- hayn, with German army, recently passed through the Turkish capital on his way to the Mesopotamian front. above Bagdad, to reorganize the Turkish forces in that region and launch a new offensive whose design Is to recapture the city of Haround- nl-Raschid from the British, who took 1t March II.
 Falkenhayn Is one of the greatest strategists in the Germany army He succeeded Won Moltke as chief of staff early in the war-the position later assumed by Hindenburg Many critics attribute the success of the Rumanian offensive to his leadership although Mackensen got most of the credit. Constantinople circles expect his arrival on the Mesopotamian front 10 change the whole situation there.

FREE LUNCH GOES
 FROM GOTHAM CAFES
And the Tall Glass of Beer for Nickel Also Is Sent
 Into Exile.

New York July 11.--"HoW dry 1 am." will be turned into a nourner s wall next Monday when two of New York's most cherished institutions will cease to exist. The free lunch and the tall glass of beer for a nickel will pass into oblivion after Sunday.
 At a closed meeting of the Retail Liquor Dealers Association of New York county yesterday afternoon in Terrace Garden this stern measure was adopted. Members said after ward there was "considera ble debate' over the question.
 One member. delegated to speak for William Mechanism, president of the association, said the association had abolished the free lunch in order to help the government in food con- servation. It was pointed out that the free lunch costs the dispenser from $4 to s2O day About 5000 of the 5000 members of the association provide d free lunch. It was esti- mated that the average cost was $7, which would make the total amount for these free feasts $2l.OOO day.
 The association voted to raise the price of beer to 15 cents container and 20 cents d pint At the bar smaller glasses will be used.
 Because of the increase in the prices of imported liquors it was de cided to add 3 cents to the prices of imported drinks, such as Scotch W hiskey, gins and lHuers.
 As to domestic drinks said the in forn1ant, "we have decided to wait
