WILL feed
SOLDIERS SUNDAY
800 Will Be SaIem's Guests
for Breakfast at els
Sunday Next

The first train of Liberty" soldiers
to be served a meal in Salem will arrive
next Sunday morning at Z O. o'clock. All
women who have volunteered to assist
in serving the soldiers upon their arrival
are requested to report at the armory
Sunday morning promptly at 6:15
O'Clock. The special train carrying
about 800 soldiers will remain in Salem
just long enough for the men to be
given their breakfast. 1t is estimated
that about $500 soldiers will pass thru
the city during the week on their way
to American Lake. An agent of the war
department was in the city last week
making arrangements for the serving of
breakfast for the one train load. The
work is in charge of Willamette chap
ter, American Red Cross. AS Salem is
so near Portland, the Red Cross here
will serve but one special train. Rose
burg has been asked to serve IA meals,
Ashland IA, Grants Pass 3, Albany 0,
Eugene 2, Salem l, and Medford 2. The
travelling schedule arranged by the
Southern Pacific requires that all trains
carrying Liberty soldiers be given the
right of way. During the time the sol
diers are in the city, the armory will
be guarded by a special volunteer detail
from the Salem rifle club. Only those
who have business at the armory will
be admitted.

Most Stocks Went
Down Several Points

New York, Sept. 1.-THE New York
Evening Sun financial review today
says:
HEAVY liquidation in the steel and
shipping shares brought about a gen.
eral reaction of broad propositions in
the industrial list in today's stock
market, an influence which spread ov-
er into the rail department to some e&-
tent depressing such leaders as Read
ing, Union Pacific, Southern Railway,
Louisville and Nashville and SO on one
to three points. J
Although the, steel and shipping
groups transactions were in small lots
as a rule, the selling wave left very
few issues untouched. United States
Steel "B" common gave way some
six points to a record low level for all
time.
Losses of 2 to 4 points were suffered
by the shipping shares and at the same
time marine insurance rates were low
cred as the sequel to reports of enemy
submarines in waters off the New Eng
land and Long Island coasts.

REGISTRATION NOT
WHAT WAS EXPECTED

There may be possibly 5000 women
and girls over the age of Is years in
Salem and vicinity who feel as patri-
otto as any man, and who perhaps
would be moSe than glad to serve their
country, but the fact is, they did not
so register themselves last Saturday.
Instead of the number that was
hoped would register, the total was
1923, registering as follows: Y. W. c..
A., 300; Richmond school, Sc; Grant
Junior high, 70; Washington junior
high, 95; Park, rs; Salem Heights, 3d.;
Mckinley, 20; Garfield, 1876; Lincoln
junior high, SO; Highland, 7; State
house, II.
The opinion is general among the
women who served as clerks at the
registering places and of those who
have been endeavoring to secure a
large registration is that the women
were not fully informed as to what the
registration really meant. Notwith-
standing the publicity given the regis
t%ration, there was general ignorance as
to what the government wanted and Il
fear that by signing the card, one was
under obligation to the government and
subject to call. Then very few had
seem the card and as they were not full
ly Informed, just failed to register.
In order that all may be given an
opportunity to register, cards will be
left at the Commercial Club. the +. w.
c. A. and the city library for registra'
ton until October I.
Among the ladies who served as
clerks at the various registration places
were Miss Eta White, Mrs. o. A. Chap
pell, Mrs. E. F. Carleton, Miss Matte
BeBatty, Mrs. w. A. McCallum, Mrs.
Don Miles, Miss Mabel ROBERTSON; Mrs.
w. |. Staley, Mrs. Frank Brown, Mrs.
LaMoine Clark and Mrs. W. NJ. Smith.

THE MIMIC PASS

Viewed by the late Hon. John Mimic
of Salem. A practical man of good judg
ment and knowing whereof he spoke
from personal observation declared
this to be a way of easy grades that
could be made a good roadway thru
to the eastern Oregon country at a low
cost.
From Salem through Turner, Aums-
vile, Stayton, Mehama and some dis
lance beyond, probably some thirty
miles in all, it is mostly but a gentle
upward incline.
On the Lebanon way there is a steep
sandy up grade for five miles on Sand
mountain. The Lebanon and Mckenzie
roads are but a few miles apart demon
strating how a much larger section
would be benefited by the Mimic Pass
road. Like other mountain roads in
q Beautiful Oregon" is not without it's
attractions for seemingly within
but a stones throw towers the great
white robed mountain, and there in
surprising charm lies the lovely lake
Marion. Nearby is the rock walled
gorge where the Santiam river swirls
through a narrow space of but a few
over, near, too, are the celebrated
Breitenbush mineral springs.
To the tourist the easy ascent of the
Mimic Pass road will be a constant
wonder and when reaching the summit
a surprise to behold an equally easy
descent on down to the open country
To those seeking a summer outing
there are many restful camping places
on the way. In the cool shadows of the
trees bordering along the running
streams conditions ideal for the camper
and lover Of outdoor life. Wishing for
the greatest road to the greatest num-
Der for the least expense.
Very truly,
CITIZEN.

Adams in charge of the navy recruiting

cruiting inspector that recruits can be

makes a shortage of 20,S5S. Men high

MILLION DOLLAR FIRE
At CALIFORNIA Mill
Million Feet of Lumber
Burns But Plant Itself
Is Saved

Westwood, Cal, Sept. 17.-One mil
lion dollars damage was done today by
a fire which destroyed two thirds OF
the lumber stock of Red River Lumber
company and threatened the plant it.

were swept by flames for several hours
and 50,OO0,00O feet of lumber destroyed
The fire which began at 8 a. m. en-
dangered the entire plant but at 10 a..
m. was brought under control and con-
fined to the company yards.
Officials of the Red River Lumber
company believe the fire is of incendi-
airy origin. Shortly before 3 a. m. when
the fire started, an automobile was
seen to leave the company's yards and
a few moments later the whole south
end of the yard burst into flames sim
ultaneously. The fire quickly swept
through the millions of feet Of green
timber in the yards. General Manager
r.. F. Pray and Willis Walker, a mem
Der of the firm, were summoned and
three general alarms summoned the g.
600 employees of the plant.
Yards Dynamited
The entire early efforts of the fire
were TO keep the flames away
from the extreme east end of the yard,
where the box factory and other build
ings of the plant are located. Mean
while train crews were rushed into the
yard and removed 35 carloads of lum-
Der which had either been partially or
loaded for shipment.
Fifty boxes of explosives were used
to dynamite sections of the yard in an
to save the east end buildings
and this plan finally succeeded in
checking the flames at 10 a. m. The
early difficulty in getting sufficient
water into the yard was solved by
s%tringing lines of hose for several
