PARADISE
OPEN THIS
WEEK END

Paradise Valley becomes Access
sible to travellers this week with
the opening Of Paradise Inn on
Saturday. Rarely before has the
place where the flowers and gla-
ciers meet" been as wonderful a
sight as it is this year, it is re-
ported.
Within one short week the snow
has left many of the lower slopes,
and on the hillsides and meadows
of the valley there has superseded
it mass of riotous color in the
wild flowers that make this one of
the most beautiful Alpine regions
in the world.
Buttercups and anemones, vio-
lets and lilies and triliums swarm
over the slopes as IL rejoicing at
Their release from winter bondage,
and M the midst of the riot Para
disc Inn. opens its spacious doors
to afford wayfarers a brief glimpse
OF the conflict between winter and
spring.
On the upper slopes of Alta
Vista the snow lies as an invita-
ltion to toboggans and skis, and
has never been in better shape for
the thrilling winter sports.
With the motor highway open
to Narada Falls, the one and a
half mile trip by saddle horse or
afoot over the pony trail to Para
disc is just another opportunity
to see the valley in a Closeup"
of flowers and snow.
Within a short time the auto
mobile road will be open the en-
tire way to Paradise. but when
that is true the SHOWS will be gone.

SO.
Dear Miss Grey: have
been married but q short
time. My husband is good
man and loves me, but he gets
angry occasionally and then he
will not speak to me, and I
worry and cry over it. I have
good parents, but I do not like
to hurt their feelings by telling
them my troubles. My husband
has said the next time he gets
angry he will go away and
leave me. I do not know what
to do, because he gets angry
in a minute over such little
things I do not know when
these times are coming. It
breaks my heart that he does
not speak. How can I avoid
such scenes? 22.
Your problem is one of ad-
justmeht, which means time. II
your husband is q good man and
loves YOU, you must be willing to
make the concessions that will
make him i'm to u more ideal hus-
band. You must study him and
find out what particular things
irritate and anger him and you
must not let these things occur
or ut least, the occurrences must
be infrequent. Keep your own
feelings in check and ignore his
fits Of sulking. DO not cry and
worry over things; this will only
aggravate the situation. Above
all, keep happy and gOOd.natured
yOurself-that is the hest pos
sible way to avoid trouble.
Dear Miss Grey: There is
woman living not far from me
whose son is of draft age. He
was put in class three on the plea
of supporting his mother. He
owns his own home and has
money in the bank. He Is also
supporting a young woman under
questionable conditions. She lives
with them. There is also a man
that has been living with the
mother for years under the gulse
of a boarder.
Do you think IL is right for a
man of this kind who is big and
strong and able to make a fine
soldier for Uncle Sam to remain
at home, while other decent young
men are at the front fighting
and dying for his safety? He Is
not even doing war work. Would
you call a man of this kind a

BY CYNTHIA GREY !

Dear Miss Grey: Some
time ago while ina theater
with a girl friend, a young
man came and sat next to us
and asked US to go to have some
ice cream. We refused. The
next week he came again and
repeated his invitation. told
him we did not go out with
strangers. A few weeks later
he came again with a young
man whom 1 know we'll. and
this friend asked my permits
sion to introduce him. or
course we were introduced.
Now the strange thing is that
since that time this young
man does not speak to me.
see him often. He seems to
haunt the places l go, but he
merely returns my bow and
makes no effort to continue
the conversation. Can you tell
me the reason for this? Was
rude to treat him the way I
did before l knew he was a
friend Of one Of my friends?
GOLDIE.
Your conduct was that of q
born lady. 1t is evident the
young man is fhoroly ashamed Of
his previous behavior. He is
leaving all advances to be made
by you, because he Is doubtful
of your attitude toward him. And
really, that introduction made no
change. He was guilty of an act
which you ought not to forget,
even tho you have gone thru the
form Of an introduction.
Dear Miss Grey: I don't
know of anything more liable
to lead to brain fever than
looking for a house when one
has children. I don't know
what is to become of us. I
have looked till l am sick. We
have eight children, the young
est 10 months old. When the
oluer~Cnlluren are out OF Scn00l
and able to help some we in
tend to buy a small place in
the country near car line, but
while they are SO small 1t
seem best to rent in the city.
wish you could advise me of
some way l can find a place
close in? DISTRACTED.
Tho solution Of your problem Is
to buy or rent q house in the
suburbs now. IL Is not really
fair to a growing family to pen
them up in small quarters. Give
them a place to run and play
without encrOaching on the rights
Of others. You will find schools

9TH BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION
CASCADE CHAPTER EASTERN STAR
Turned into w. S. S. Meeting-Auc-
tion Sale of Cakes and Pies
Nets Over S2,SO8.

Cascade Chapter of the Eastern
Star had a birthday party last Fri
day evening in the Masonic hall.
When the luncheon hour was reached
it was turned into a War Savings
Stamp meeting. The cake and pies
intended for refreshments were auc-
toned off by DR.. A. G. McKeown
who proved quite an adept in realiz-
ing full value for every dietary NOR
sci offered for sale. One cake
brought two hundred dollars. The
total amount realized was over
$1,000. The purchasers will receive
in War Stamps the amount of each
ones bid.
The ground for the sale was pre-
pared, however, by some patriotic
talk by Mr.. c. G. Smyth, Mr.. L. w.
Woodrow and Mr.. L. C. Taylor.
After the sale the edibles were
redonated to the Chapter and formd
substantial part of the very appe-
tising luncheon served by the ladies.

ROOT FOR YOUR GOVERNMENT

Rev. John Cavanaugh, president of
Notre Dame University, says: "The
War Savings campaign will be pow
erful in wining this gigantic con-
test. Did you ever see a football
game? Did you notice how much
depended on the roofing from the
sidelines and the bleachers Well,
the War Savings campaign is an
ideal form of roofing for our side
1t disheartens the enemy as much as
it cheers and invigorates our side
"The duty of patriotism lies equal
ly on young and old, rich and poor,
on clergy and laymen. There is no
reason in creation for selecting our
soldiers among men between 81 and
81, except that they are better able
to do the physical work of the war
than the rest of US. But the work of
the war must be done in homes, in
churches, in schools, and in factories,
as well as upon the battle fields of
the world. And the worst form of
slacker-because he has not even
the poor, silly reason of fear to ex-
cuse him-is the Stacker who is
called upon to make only the minor
sacrifice of money and has not the
heart to make it."

IL TROOP TRAINS WENT EAST
THIS WEEK.

Last Sunday night three troop
trains passed through here on their
way to the Atlantic seaboard. Mon
day night four trains passed through
here and Tuesday night four. All
were from Camp Lewis. Each train
contained about 500 men. The first
train Monday night arrived early in
the evening, while it was yet light,
and stopped fifty minutes. Two
troops of $50 men in each got out
and marched through town, probably
more to give the men exercise than
to show themselves. Nevertheless
they made a great showing. In one
troop of 180 men not one weighed
less than 172 pounds, and none were
under five feet ten. 1t was a remark
ably fine lot of men. Everyone
looked in the pink of condition. In
side of thirty days they will all be
on their way to France. While we
have great pride in their appearance,
rejoice at their going and feel conf
dent that they will give a good ac-
count of themselves, there is yet an
after-thought, the sad reflection that
some of them will never come back.
Four trains passed through Tues
day night and three Wednesday.
This will conclude the troop move
ment to the east for the present. In
this connection it is of interest to
state that every day new recruits
are going west bound for Camp
Lewis to go into training.
An unusually large crowd gath
cred at the depot Monday evening
and gave the soldier boys fruit, Gig
arettes and reading matter. The
band, also, was on hand to lend aid
to the welcome and cheer them on
their way.

PESHASTIN TURNS STRAW
BERRY FESTIVAL INTO w.
S. S. DRIVE.

A War Savings Stamps campaign
camouflaged as a strawberry festi-
val given under the auspices of the
Peshastin Red Cross Tuesday even
ing at the school house, proved to be
not only most enjoyable but a very
profitable affair. Judge Mohler, of
Cashmere, gave the principal talk of
the evening urging all those present
to subscribe to the w. S. S. cam
paign until it hurts" AS a result,
a number of cakes, all of which had
been donated by the ladies of Pc
shastin, were auctioned off at prices
ranging from War Savings Stamp
TO $35. The bidder receiving the
cake was accredited the amount bid
on his War Savings Stamps sub
scription. AS cakes of all colors and
sizes were auctioned, the amount
subscribed for the w. S. S. campaign
grew until it reached the two hun
dred mark. Mr.. ]. A. Warman made
a splendid auctioneer. Strawberries
and cake were served during the ev-
ening, the proceeds from this
amounting to $780, which was given
to the Peshastin Red Cross. Mr.. and
Mrs. E. w. Gray donated the straw
berries. Mrs. P. R. Bradley had
charge of very interesting pro-
gram which added much to the even
ing's entertainment. The following
numbers were given:
Song-Red Cross Maids, Beda

The storm which gathered twp

Sunday evening between six

because of the great amount of
lightning and thunder, moved east
and hung around the vicinity of
Cashmere and Monitor, where con-

has been called a cloudburst. The
roads were more or less damaged,
much land was flooded and north of
Dryden, opposite a canyon, some
two miles of the highline canal was
filled up with dirt, rock and brush.
Those who have witnessed the scene
say it will require week to clear
the ditch and get the water through
it. 1t will work a hardship on many
orchard owners who had planned to
spray their orchards this week. Some
damage was also done by washing
loose earth away, leaving the ground

West Searles and his son Ike and a

seriously hurt and the car was only
slightly damaged. After being
righted and put on the road the
party motored home. 1t was a Ford.
