AN INDIAN HINT

If it is not unduly cold an Indian
will light a large fire and warm the
earth. then rake away the Goals and
lie down and pull his blanket over
him. says Boys Life, the Boy Scouts
magazine.
In cold weather he heats a large
stone or boulder, covers it lightly
with earth and curls himself around
it. He never wraps himself in the
blanket, but uses 1t exclusively fol
covering the heat in.

Tuesday was devoted entirely to
road discussion.
Remarks were made by S. A..
Barnes from whcih it appeared that
there is considerable prospect that
the proposed road crossing the Blues
from Elgin to Weston will be Sc
lected as the route Of the Oregon
highway. Other routes under con-
sideration are said to involve con-
struction costs almost prohibitive.
It is also said that the Elgin-
Weston route is the only one that
will receive support from the fed
eraI government. Even though it
fails TO become the state highway it
will be built as post road by the
government, according to those in
touch with the situation. This

For our soldiers and sailors, we
would give no evidence of the con-

In our selfish clinging to conven-
ience, comfort and luxury we would
give no sign of the Esprit of re"

that strengthened the fingers of
our women in the civil war as they
tore their delicate garments into
bandages.

and elevated the Red Gross.

and elevated the Red Cross.
On every battlefield our soldier'
will not go further than the stretch
er bearers of the Red Gross, will
not risk their lives more splendid
ly for our liberty than the stretch
er bearers do for mercy.
Our ally will not love us better
for the strength we give his fight
ing arm than the healing we lay
upon his wounds. Our boys will
fight more heroically, confident that
if they fall the Red Cross will car
ry them back Of the trenches and
do all that skill and love and devo-
tion can do to save their lives.
Knowing too that if little cross in
a foreign land must mark their last
resting place, the Red Cross at
home will be keeping from want
mother, wife or children.
Wherever war makes need, the
Red Gross serves. The service of
the Red Cross demonstrates above
all that we do not brutally fight to
beat down and break foe, but for
liberty, not so swayed by lust Of
battle that we cast from the hand
of love the symbol Of mercy-the
Red Cross.
Thus, even as America fights,
heart thrills in response
to the Red Cross appeal and Ameri-
can pocketbooks open wide.
Thus, even as Oregon gives her
young men to the army and navy,
3he gives her money to the Red
Cross that our defenders may be
defended.
Throughout the state the emer-
yency appeal Of the Red Cross has
et in motion an army of volunteer
workers who are getting enthusias-
ic, patriotic, generous response.
Oregon's dollars are not slackers.
