Gillette and Mrs. Whitney, leaders in
a competing campaign to increase the
membership of the Civic Club, select

A Saturday night public gathering,

to stimulate interest and enthusiasm

The following letter from the gov
ernor of Oregon to the club was read
by the secretary:
Replying to your letter of the
goth inst, have to report that have
already made arrangements to pro
claim the week of April IA to 81 as
Western Women's Consumers Week.
This action was taken at the instance
of the New West Magazine of Salt
Lake City, which has interested the
governors of the other western states
in fixing this week uniformly.
Regarding the Cleanup Week in
May, it would seem little premature
to issue a proclamation now. but |
will be glad to go into the matter
later on if it is the desire of the
women Of the state.
VERY truly yours.

PULLAR
& NVEN
FOOD IS CHEAPER
over IN IRELAND
Potatoes Can Be Purchased for
Less Money Than Here

Base of American FIotilla in British
Waters, Nov. 10.-When an American
naval man who has visited Ireland in
time Of peace is asked what has i'm
pressed him most about Ireland in
war. the inevitable answer is:
"Ireland's prosperity and freedom
from wartime restrictions of other
countries
Hundreds of Americans in the
naval forces have visited England,
Scotland and even France. All agree
that there is more freedom in Ire
INDEPENDENTLY less wartime cur
tailment of personal liberty, as, for
instance, regarding restrictions in eat
ing and drinking. There is no con-
scription there, no defense of the
realm act" and few war taxes exist.
Certainly when it comes to food and
drink, Ireland is a land OF plenty in
comparison with England. There is
not any more food or drink there
than in England, but 1t is Of better
quality.
And in most parts Of Ireland it is
cheaper. Meatless and potato1ess
days are unknown there. Potatoes
never were high or so plentiful. That
they are cheaper than even in the
United States was unknown to the
commtssary department of the Amer
lean Navy which recently shipped to
the fot1lla about ten thousand bushels,
but which never were unloaded. After
discharging it's cargo of other food
stuffs, the naval supply ship was sent
to another port, where the potatoes
were sold to the British government
Fresh meat is also cheaper in Ire
land than in England or the United
States, porterhouse steaks being from
to cents a pound below the Amer
lean price. Americans are struck
by the large portions served in Ire
land as compared with what they get
In England. For three shillings they
get a meal which includes soup, fish
or lobster, and some tfmes both: hot
or cold meat. dessert, cheese and bis
cults, and tea or coffee. The same
meal in a hotel of corresponding
grade in England would cost at least
six shillings.
Drink, too, is not only more plen-
tiful, but Of better quality The
drinking places in Ireland are open
all day and until II o'clock at night
whereas in England and Scotland they
are open only for two hours in the
afternoon and three in the evening.
In England it is considered indeli-
cate to ask a friend for a match. II
France matches are we'll nigh unob.
tainable. All the continental coun.
tries are suffering from a match
famine. Not so in Ireland. Hotels
bar-rooms and cigar stores all have
matches in abundance and they are
used with the same freedom as II
time Of peace.
The Americans see the Irish farmer
prosperous beyond precedent. The
sailor, in his little trips to Dublin
and such resorts as Killarney, Yong
hal and Glencariff, passes through
some Of the richest agricultural coun
try in the world, and farmers boast O
the record price they are getting TO
their produce, especially their live
stock. Moreover, farm labor is plen
tiful and of good quality, due largel
TO the fact that there has been viz
ually no emigration from Ireland 70
three years.
