OFFICIALS PREPARE
FOR DRAFT DETAILS

The Offices of the county clerk and
sheriff are both busy making ready for
the approaching examination of the 609
Hood River men eligible under the Sc
leetive draft for the classification that
will be undertaken BY the government.
Acting Clerk Francis and Mrs. Geo.
Mellon. deputy clerk, have finished q
complete segregation Of eligibles that
shows the following respective data :
Single men, 289; married, 1928; total
aliens, So; Japanese. 81: farmers, 299.
Data prepared by the clerks Office
shows 22 alien enemies registered In the
county. Five Of them are Germans. IA
are Austrians and the balance Bulgar-
ians.
The questionnarire, which all draft
eligibles win be required to fill out, is
l6 pages in length and contains almost
every conceivable question which might
tend to throw some light on the family
and business life of every prospective
conscript. Beginning with the date Of
his birth, the registrant. must give a
complete and accurate account of his
actions up to the very day he signs his
questionable and returns it TO his local
exemption board. He must name in
detail and with dates. every occupa-
tion in which he has been engaged dur
ing the past ten years.
In fact, so exacting is the War De.
partment in seeking all possible data
from registrants under the selective
draft that the registrant, if married,
must give the name and address of the
officiating clergyman or magistrate.
If renter, the applicant must give
the amount Of rent he pays each month
as well as the name and address of his
landlord.
Although the preliminary machinery
for the second draft call probably will
not be set in motion until December Is
local exemption boards are already as.
sembling preliminary data concerning
the classification Of all registrants.
This information is taken from the
original registration cards.
According to word from Washington,
the questionnaires probably will not be
mailed to, registrants before December
Is, and it is expected to take at least
go days for the local and district
boards to make their final classified
tions of men after the questionnaires
have been returned by the registrants.

The DAVIDSONS SEE
MANY OREGON BOYS

visits of Mr.. and Mrs. H. F. David
son, who are spending the winter in
New York city, have recently formed
delightful surprises for Hood River and
Oregon soldier boys in training quar-
ters in and around the metropolis.
In a letter home Mrs. Davidson tells
of surprise visit to Sgt. Ellis Morse,
of an aero squadron. On receipt of
telegram from Hood River announcing
the arrival of the young man in New
York, Mr.. and Mrs. Davidson packed a
basket with apples, fried chicken, Hood
River strawberry and cherry preserves,
cookies and candies and called on the
young flyer.
''The smile on his face, writes Mrs.
Davidson, WAS worth the price of
many kilograms. He did not know we
were in New York.. am sending our
home address and telephone number, so
that the Hood River people with boys
in the army or navy may inform their
boys of them. We will then at least
see. if they call us, that they get some
Hood River apples to eat while here
and anything else that will make it
pleasant for them. Our home address
is $50 st. Nicholas Ave-. telephone
Audubon 7l40. Mr.. Davidson's Office
address is 81 Warren ST., telephone
Barclay 1914"
On a recent visit to Long Island Mr..
and Mrs. Davidson, according to the
letter, met so many Oregon men that
they characterized the day as Oregon
Day.

StOrk Almost Stops Trains

The arrival last week of the stork
at the home of Toby Morioka, jani-
tor at the local O.-W. r. & N. station,
one of whose duties is to convey the
United States mail bags to and from
the postoffice. demoralized the stat ion
force and all but delayed mail trains.
When Morioka was summoned home to
greet his new daughter, Agent j. H.
Fredricy was unable to find any one to
take his place. The genial Mr.. Fred
ricy spent an hour Friday at the
big passenger station welding broom
and duster. c. Evinger, the station
baggagemaster, carried the mails.
"Toby" has been employed as jan
tor at the station for the past 10
years. He has been absent from his
post on only four occasions, once
when he was married and twice to cell
ebrate the visits of DR.. Stork.
On the other occasion Toby was
missing from his place to attend the
funeral arrangements of his first born.
The Japanese man is very fond of
children, and the death of his little one
was blow that he never recovered.

Logger Killed in Wreck

d. A. Bassich, an Austrian laborer
on his way to work in the company's
West Fork logging camp, was instantly
killed Monday afternoon when the log
ging train returning from the mill to
the woods collided with nine wild cars
that had broken from switcher and
had swept with great speed down a
long heavy grade. Members of the
logging crew jumped to safety.
Papers in the dead mans pockets in.
dicated that he had been residing at
Hillsboro. The body was brought here
by Coroner Bartmess.
The accident, the first of its kind
ever had by the lumber company here,
demolished three cars, and dozen
others will have to undergo extensive
repairs.

Hood River has lost one of her op-
timists in the passing of w. L. Smith,
whose funeral occurred last week. Mr..
Smith, who is survived by his widow
and two children, Miss Hazel H., and
Wesley w.. the latter of Portland. was
known for his ever sunny smile.
At the funeral last week tributes
were paid to the memory of the de-
parted by Rev. E. H. Longbrake and
Rev. j. L. Hershner, both his friends.
Mr.. Longbrake said in part:
There are certain folk whom we
delight to be with and with whom we
delight to mingle and whose presence
is a benediction to US. To meet with
them is to find relief and refreshment
and blessing. We always feel the hap
pier for having been with them. In
this day of gloom and despair it is a
great blessing for one to be able to
carry the Gospel of Sunshine. There
| is a geat need for those whose DISPOSE
tions and, characters are such that they
can carry the Gospel of Sunshine, and
they are a very great asset to any
community and people. We are truly
made better and the world loses some
of its gloom because of such disciples.
We love to sit under their shadow and
come close to them."
Rev. Hershner spoke with great sym.
pathy, as friend and near neighbor
Of Mr.. Smith. He said:
'The tribute of respect and esteem
that is given to person by his friends
and neighbors Is greater, higher hon.
or than any public honor or favor.
This tribute as friends and neighbors
we today brought to honor the memory
of Mr.. Smith. He was always cheer
ful and good natured and If he had
dark hours he kept it to himself.
He was q man who did not make
great professions, but his friends knew
where he stood on all moral questions
and his influence will be felt for good
in years to come His family and home
were always in his thoughts. He be-
longed to the class of farmers who do
their best, and he always honored his
calling with the most scientific, up to
date methods.

APPLE PARlNGS ARE
SAVED and DRIED

Local operators of apple by-product
plants are going pork packers, who
have won the reputation of saving all
the hog except the squeal, one better
this year. The apple Gamer and cider
mill men are saving every last bit of
the Gull fruit.
The evaporating department of the
Hood River Apple Vinegar Co. is be-
ing devoted exclusively this season to
the curing of apple parings hauled sew
eral blocks from the two canneries.
All parings are also saved at the Odell
plant Of the Hood River Valley Prod
ucts Co., and are as carefully dried as
the fruit itself. The apple peels, con-
tanning the properties from which jell-
les are made. bring high prices from
eastern jelly makers.
The big vinegar plant in the city has
contracted all of its pomace to be con-
veyed across the street to r. H. Ull-
rich's evaporating plant constructed to
handle the former refuse product ex-
clusively. When prepared for ship
ment to jelly makers, the dried pomace
resembles number of the prepared
breakfast foods now on the market.

the fund given either to charity or to
some patriotic cause.

This is Year for Big Apples

The season of 1917 will be remem-
bered by many growers as the year of
big apples for varieties that uusually
run to small sizes. On the East Side
ranch Of Felix Vonnegut number of
boxes of Jonathans, running 72 to box
were harvested. Jonathans do not
usually average $50 in size.
Many growers have also harvested
huge Newtowns this year. The large
Newtown is in good demand in domes-
tic markets, but for export the small
sizes are preferred.
