THE FIRST LONG PANTS

y You know that awkward period in a boys
life when he is neither boy nor yet man:
that sensitive period, made doubly so from
the fact that his clothes are not right often
too young and many times too old. Why not
come to the relief of this splendid lad by buy
ing clothes that are becoming to his age; that
have youth, style and service; that will de-
light the boy and please the parents? We
carry them in the famous Belmont as well as
the Clothcraft for young men, and priced at

Sewers and Knitters Needed.

The Red Cross needs more sewers and
more kr1itters. The material for the
childrens refugee garments has arrived
and big supply of knitting needles has
reached Moscow. This local is expected
to furnish large number of these gar
ments before September l. To do this
means that many more people must go
to work. Any woman who can and will
sew or knit can get the supplies at the
Red Cross headquarters in the federal
building and is urged to get them at
once and "get busy"

Cure for Dysentery.

'While l was in Ashland, Kansas,
a gentleman overheard me speaking
of Chamberlain Collie and Diarrhoea
Remedy" writes William Whitelaw,
of Des Moines, Iowa. "He told me in
detail of what it had done for his
family, but more especially his daugh-
ter who was lying at the point of
death with a violent attack of dysen-
terry, and had been given up by the
family physician. Some of his neigh
bors advised him to give Chamber
lain's Collie and Diarrhoea Remedy,
which he did, and fully believes that
by doing so saved the life of his child.
He stated that he had also used this
remedy himself with equally crafty
ing results" a.

They make the relatives all SO satisfied

commanding general of the N L. might
call on us for | recruited 10 good,
strong national college sororities, max
ing somewhere between $50 women to

briefly what tremendous task was put
on me all at once. There are 5000 adj
vance tickets to be sold The city was
divided into five-the whole list of Port
land industries (including all ship and
lumber yards, manufacturing plants,
etc) was my division. I was one of five
women heading this huge sale. l had to
get people, driving cars, speakers, ticket
sellers, and arrange with these plants to
let us in and talk to their men and sell
tickets at noon hours, tomorrow, Satur

Tuesday evening to gain some informa-
ton from Will MacRae, who has beer
with the 162nd regulars ever since ii
went to France. One of your last let
tiers you said the Hawleys thought that
, Archie was at the front Will MacRae
knows all the boys of the 162nd and
loves to talk about them. | won't tell
you much of the meeting at the Audi
forum because | am sending the paper
and marked the article. We went before
seven so we would be sure and get a
seat. As consequence we stood outside
(among those in the picture) waiting for
admittance until 7:30 There was an
organ recital until 800 Everyone was
enthusiastic over MacRae, because he
had just came from over there and had
been there just as one of the boys of the
162nd He gave a short and interesting
talk and then the meeting was made in
formal by people rising and asking ques-
tions of either personal or general inter-
est. A good many passed notes to the
stage, which developed into being the
most satisfactory way of getting an
answer, so | sent up the following in
scribed card: DO you know Archie
Hawley of Co. C, 162nd Regs; where
is Co. c. located now, and what doing?'
He answered it by saying they spent
long time in training at Bordeaux A
short time ago they were transferred to
e. can't say the name of the place, but
it sounded like Kahn, may be Dad will
know the place, rightfully spelled). Any
way Hawleys no doubt know all those
details and more too He said there
were good many companies there-L,
M, d, c and others-aild they were right
now supplying the troops at the front,
in place of the killed and wounded, SO
quite likely he is either in action or
called any time for his company; if he
is yet in c he is there awaiting orders
to fill in the broken troops at the front.
He said Yes, know him. I know
every boy in the 162nd, and have talked
with him many times
Mothers, wives, sisters and sweet
hearts nearly went wild over him, for he
seemed like a personal greeting right
from there dear ones He is an Ore

this when they get no news that the re-
urned men all say don't worry, no news,
