new MEN CALLED
TO FIGHT FIRES

Responding to a call from Warren
Cooper, forestry man experimenting
crews fighting Upper Valley national
forest fires, Forest Ranger Albert
Wiesendanger, from the Portland Office
of the United States Forestry Service,
and crew of Is men were rushed to
Parkdale Tuesday by rail automobile
of the Mt. Hood Railroad Co. The new
men, needed to fight fire that devel-
oped on Clear creek, tributary of the
Upper West Fork of Hood River, were
met by Mr.. Cooper with automobiles
and hurried into the woods. Heavy
timber and dense underground grow
on Clear creek, and it is feared that
the fire, if not checked, will spread to
valuable commercial timber j. w.
Palmer, of Portland, and associates
last year purchased from the govern
ment an enormous area of ripe fir and
cedar in this vicinity.
The Upper Valley fire, burning on
the Bear and Red creek watersheds, is
spreading west toward the top of Red
hill. Unless an east wind springs up
and continues, Mr.. Wiesendanger, who
returned to Portland Tuesday, says that
the crews of fighters expect to bring
the fire under control on top of Red
hill and thus prevent it from entering
the dense timber on the headwaters of
the West Fork. Mr.. Cooper has total
of so men engaged in fighting the fires.
Mr.. Wiesendanger says that fire,
starting off the Columbia River High
way between Multnomah Falls and
Oneonta Gorge Saturday is being con-
trOlled.

MOuntaineers in Hood Avalanche

A thrilling adventure was expert
enced Tuesday on Mount Hood by a
party of four Seattle mountaineers,
two men and two women, when an av.
alanche of loose rocks fell around them
as they were descending from the
summit.
One of the young women was struck
IN the back by falling rock. Forest
Ranger Elijah Coalman saw the acci-
dent and hastened to lend assistance.
The girl was supported to point blow
Cooper's Spur, where she was met by
horse from Cloud Cap Inn. The in
jury, it is reported, was not serious,
and after days rest, the young wom-
an. it was thought, would be able to
travel.
While names of the mountaineers
could not be secured from Cloud Cap
Inn, it has been learned that the
climbers were Misses Dickerson and
Wagon and Messrs. Anderson and Bak.
er. 1t is thought that Miss Wagon
was the young woman injured.
The party was with mountainers
who recently, after an ascent of Mount
st. Helens, Travelled with pack ponies
to Mount Adams and climbed to the
summit. On arrival here they pro-
ceeded to Homer Rogers and securing
a pack pony journeyed to Elk Mead
ows, making the ascent of Hood, with
out a guide, from that point.

CHAIN LETTERS
MAKE APPEARANCE

Chain letters in which are embodied
prayers to work on the superstitious
and cause worry to parents who have
sons in the service will result, num-
Der of local citizens say, in complaints
to postal authorities.
The following is the sample of let
ters, always anonymous, received by
local mothers of soldiers during the
past week:
"Angel Chain Prayer
"Oh Lord. | implore thee to bless
our soldiers and sailors and America
and bring them to dwell with thee in
eternity.
'"This PRAYER was sent to me and
must be sent all over the world. Copy
and see what will happen. It was sent
in ancient times of war and all who
pass it by will meet with some great
misfortune. All those who write it
will be free from harm. Send it to
seven different persons, one each day
for seven days and on the seventh day
you will receive great joy. "Do not
break the chair"
Rev. Longbrake of Asbury Methodist
church, to whom chain letters have
been referred, declares that he will
endeavor to stop the abuse.

JUDGE GARY VISITS
REV. BILLY SUNDAY

Direct from a visit to Alaska, even
before he stopped at Portland hotel,
Judge Ebert T. Gary, president of the
United States Steel Corporation, and
Mrs. Gary, accompanied by E. R. Ed
ridge, the Portland representative of
the big steel concern, motored up over
the Highway Monday for visit with
Rev. William A. and ma" Sunday.
The steel magnate and party had din
ner with the Sundays at their Odell
country home, returning to Portland in
the late afternoon.
Piloted by the noted evangelist, the
steel magnate was shown through the
principal orchard districts. Despite the
smoke that obscured the surrounding
snow capped peaks, Judge Gary de-
clared that he would not soon forget
the sights of the Hoed River valley.
"Mr. Sunday told. me-" he said,
"that Oregon is one of the finest
states of the Union and that the Hood
River valley is the most naturally
beautiful spot in theIcountry. He has
chosen well. have certainly enjoyed
today"

PIONEER WOMAN
CALLED BY DEATH

Mrs. Anna MatildalMohr, one of the
valleys earliest surviving pioneer
women who assisted her husband, Pc
ter Mohr, in carving from the Hood
River timbered wilderness home-
stead place that is today one of the
fruit districts most productive tracts,
passed away at 1890 o'clock Tuesday
night. Through her sympathetic aid
in time of need and sickness, Mrs.
Mohr won the esteem and love of Hood
Rivers pioneers, and news of her
death brought general expression of
grief.
Mr.. and Mrs. Mohr last winter de-
cided that they had worked hard
enough on their homestead place to de-
serve reward of leisure during the
eveningtime of life, and just few
weeks ago they had moved from their
old East Side ranch home to a comfort
able cottage erected on the Heights.
Mrs. Mohr was a devout member of
the Catholic church, and in gratifica-
tion of one of her wishes the Heights
home had been built near the Francis
can chapel.
Mrs. Mohr was a native of Bavaria
and was 67 years of age. She was
born on February % and an annual
event at the Mohr home was the joint
celebration of the birthday anniversary
of the mother and that of the father Of
the American nation.
Mrs. Mohr's maiden name was Dem
ner. Her wedding to Mr.. Mohr oc-
Cured at Napa City, Calf, July 16,
1873. Mr.. Mohr having preceded her,
Mrs. Mohr and her eldest son, John H.
Mohr, a prominent East Side orchard
ist and grange member, then a babe
on year of age, joined him May "a,
1880. Four other children are left sur
viving-Peter J. and A. A. Mohr. both
of Hood River; Mrs. George Baker,
of Estacada, and Mrs. E. F. Dresser,
of Parkdale.
The funeral mass will be said at St.
Mary's Catholic church tomorrow
morning at 10 o'clock, Rev. FIR. Maxi
milan Klein officiating. lnterment
will follow at the Catholic cemetery.

BIG new LUMBER
MILL WILL START

With daily capacity of $4,000 feet,
the Mitchells Point Lumber Co., the
new plant of which is located just west
of the Mitchells Point tunnel on the
Columbia River Highway, will begin
work Saturday. The mill, owned by
A. A. and j. H. Lausmann, brothers,
of Hood River, and M. D. Jameson, a
Portland lumberman. will be, with the
exception of the Oregon Lumer Com
pany's plant at Dee, the largest lum-
ber concern in the county.
''We have just one thing to contend
WITH" says A. A. Lausmann, who will
manage the plant" and that is the
lack of men for the woods and around
the plant. We are now short many
men, but every effort is being made to
recruit labor"

Meaning Of Marines Badges

"The strips of parti-colored ribbon
so often seen on the breasts Of our
Soldiers of the Sea are mystery to
most civilians says Major General
George Barnett, Commandant of the
United States Marine Corps. Every
one and three-eighths inches of the
strip denotes that the wearer is the
possessor of a medal awarded for valor
or good conduct or of badge for SER
vice in some famous campaign.
"The man with the light blue strip
decorated with white stars possesses
the greatly coveted medal of honor !;
the blue, white and red combination
mean service in the Philippine insur-
rection; two bands of blue and gray of
equal width, service in the Civil War !:
two bands of blue separated by yellow,
service in the Spanish-American War !;
red, yellow, blue, yellow and red bor-
dered with blue, the Cuban occupation.
One of the easiest to recognize is the
China campaign badge-a band of yell
low with edges of blue"

COW GIRL BRINGS
ROUNDUP INVITE

"It was one of the tamest and yet
one of the most wonderful rides that
have ever had in my life," said Mrs.
Bertha Blancett, world famed broncho
buster and cow woman, who yesterday
rode from here horseback the nine
miles distance to Rev. VIM. A. Sun
days Odell ranch to deliver to the not
ed evangelist and Ma Sunday an invita-
tion from President Til Taylor to the
approaching annual Pendleton Round
Up.
~ have often heard about Hood Riv-
er apples, and guess they are about
as we'll known over the world as the
Pendleton Roundup. After Is miles
of jogging on family horse through
endless vistas of apples have been
wondering just what you ever do with
all those apples.
Dressed in full regalia, Mrs. Blanch-
EFT reached Hood River yesterday
morning, and after breakfast at the
Hotel Oregon began search for a
horse. 1t looked for a time as though
her trip would have to be taken in the
conventional automobile, for livery
stables, with stalls turned to garages,
could furnish no horse. Finally Mrs.
Blancett secured Mrs. H. T. DeWitt's
saddle horse.

LAND SHOW EXHIBITS
ARE CALLED FOR

On receipt of letter from Col.
David M. Dunno, of Portland, who
asks that Hood River county autori-
ties take some action looking toward
an exhibit at the approaching Portland
Land Products show, County Judge
Blowers says he will confer with Pres
ident Cutlery, of the Commercial club,
and other influential citizens, and en-
deavor to create sufficient local interest
that creditable display may be as
sembled.
Judge Blowers says he has discussed
the proposed county exhibit with num-
erous ranchers who are favorable to
the plan. Many orchardists will make
individual displays at the big north
western show.

SUMMARY ACTION

Met by summary action of United
States military authorities, We have
seen the threatened Northwest-wide l..
w. W. disturbances melt away. That
immense strike. so talked about by
blatant agitators, fizzled out like an
incipient winter gale in the mid-Co-
lumbia before the breath of a chinook.
The |. w. w. has based his deceittful
pleas on an alleged yoke that labor is
said to bear. In the name of the work.
ingman he breaches sedition and an
archy. But honest labor has realized
that the pernicious preachers of sabot-
age and destruction in their midst SIM
ualte the proverbial snake in the grass,
and honest labor is clearing its camps
of the |. w. w.
Two weeks ago, We people of the
Northwest were truly alarmed by inn
pending labor disorders. We did not
then know how really f1imsy the dirty
house of cards of |. w. W.ism really
was. Uncle Sam called the bluff, and
it does not appear now that any really
great cause for alarm exists.
But loyal citizens the country over
must be on the alert. If we had been
more drastic, had nipped in the bud
little sooner the plots of bowling dis
contents, the little deviltries that they
stir up would have been ended just so
much sooner. Fortunately we have had
but one of the agitators among US. We
gave him the welcome he should have
had. Representative, grim. purpose
full Hood River citizens gave him
demonstration that we hope makes of
him better citizen. Pete Shad's case
was not attended to by mob. He was
talked to in plain English. We believe
he will follow the few simple sugges-
tions that were made to him by men of
Hood River, representatives of law and
order.

MOTORISTS DIVERTED.
IRE Is AROUSED

The perseverance of representatives
of mid Columbia steamboat lines to in
fiuence motorists travelling toward this
city over the Columbia Highway to cut
out Hood River by taking a boat for
The Dalles at Cascade Locks has
aroused the ire of local people.
Certainly the road between here
and Cascade Locks is rough" says d.
Nc Donald, "but that does not warrant
the reports that the Highway is impas-
sable. ! have heard of numbers of
tourists taking the boat at Cascade
Locks, however, after listening to such
representations. The family of T.
Campbell, of Curwell, en- route here
to visit US, were afraid to take the
route after they heard such story"

MARGULIS PLANT
WILL SOON BE READY

The Odell plant of the Hood River

which will also turn out jellies and
evaporated product, will handle from
40 to so tons of fruit per day.
1--WE are going to be all fitted up
even before the delivering season is on

me, we are going to make things hum
out at Odell. We are planning to re-
ceive at our different receiving sta
tions cooking apples in lug boxes"

concern is Odell 242.

In Congressman N. J. Sinnott the
apple growers of the Northwest have
a true friend. Food Administrator
Hoover, too, whose experience in dis
tributing food to masses of beleaguered
people in Belgium has taught him the
value of fruit in diet, is working for
the interests of apple growers as well
as for the residents of the trans-Atlan-
tic countries who will be benefited by
apples. The problem of apple exports,
we believe, will finally resolve itself
into that of available shipping facili-
tioc
