Our Soldier Boys.

There has been widespread sorrow
over the country at the sinking OF the
Tuscania, with the loss OF 113 OF our
American soldiers. 1t was with great
relief and thanksgiving that we read in
the list OF survivors the name Of Alillard
l., Brooks, of Brnnot. His tarheri is pas
tor Of the Christian church there, and
we know it must have been a great
10y to his family to know that while
so many were lost, their boy was saw
ed.
Among those exempted from SER
vice are students of the ministry. One
Of our Iron County boys realized that
ii is often among the crowd that we
find our best opportunities for doing
good. Robert L. Wood, of BellevieW,
had one year as a student at Marble
Hill, and two years at William Jewell
College, at Liberty. But when in the
first draft one OF the first numbers
fell to him, he did not claim exemp-
tion but went where country and duty
called him. He is now Corporal Rob
ert II. Wood, Go. 4, 3l4 Engin ers,
Camp Funston, Kansas. He says he
finds large opportunities there for
working for his Master. He Is presi-
dent Of his Bible class, and in many
ways can show that he is a loya! SOL
dier of the cross aud stand up for

MOSIER PUBLISHER
PREPARES FOR CALL

Roger W. Moe, publisher of the
Mosier Bulletin, is looking for pur-
chaser for his paper and publishing
plant. The young man, former stu
dent of the University of Oregon de-
partment of journalism and son of
A. d. Moe, will be called in the next
Wasco county draft. Plans for dis
continuing the Mosier paper for the
duration of the war were considered,
but business men of the town and
orchardists of the Mosier district de-
clare that they wish the publication
continued.
Mr.. Moe endeavored to enlist in the
aviation corps the latter part of last
November, but failed to pass the phys
ical test because of temporary minor
disorders. Since then he has been
under the care of physician and the
latter part of last week he was certi-
fed as physically qualified by The
Dalles exemption board. The young
editor, when he is inducted into the
national army. will be the third and
last son of Mr.. and Mrs. Moe to an.
swer the call of their country. Forrest
L. Moe, formerly sergeant Of 18th Co.
.. C. A., is now at Camp Lewis,
attending an officers training school.
Mark E. Moe is somewhere in France,
member of one of the first aero
squadrons in the American expedition.

SNOW BLANKET PRE-
VENTS DAMAGE

Leroy Childs is of the opinion that
the low temperatures of the past week
will cause no damage to Hood River
fruit and Strawberries. While the un.
interrupted springlike weather of the
past two months had prevented state
of dormancy for all trees and plants,
the blanket of snow that has fallen
will make orchards and strawberry
tracts secure.
June-like zephyrs following the
heavy showers of Monday night, the
snow that fell over the mid Columbia
last week has vanished.
For an hour Monday night the rain
storm almost reached cloudburst pro-
portions and damage was caused county
highways. All streams were at fresh
ct stage but no damage from their
floods has been reported.

RED CROSS SPELLING bee

An editorial in last weeks Oregoni.
an on "The Old Fashioned Spelling
Bee, in parts of the country called
Spelling Match" suggested to us
a means of making nice sum OF
money for the Red Cross, and at the
same time furnishing US with amuse-
ment and education.
We suggest that date be chosen for
some evening during the coming spring
and a Hood River county spelling bee
be put on. Who will not be willing to
pay rs cents to hear sixth grade tot
spell down his grandpa?, And likely ii
will be embarrassing for all of us to
be caught on some simple word and
have to take our seats while everybody
else roars.
But what small sacrifice for pa
triotic cause! Let's not allow single
man or woman escape. We can easily
send out of town for someone to give
the words. Hon. Fred ". Wilson, OF
The Dalles, will be glad to help the
cause along that much. And we pre-
dict that he will bring along several
hundred rooters and spectators.
1t has been long time since any of
us has witnessed or participated in a
spelling bee, but this war is causing
the revival of many fine old fashioned
customs. Let the Red Cross executive
committee just announce the date of
the proposed spelling bee, and all of us
will get busy with Webster's or Funk
& Wagnalls'. And We'll all be there.

reckless bravery.
The day circus came to town Big
Frank killed an attendant after an ex-
citing fight and fled. At almost the
same moment one of the lions escaped
from the arena. Rosa's daughter saw
the animal in the woods and while run

told her husband he had not Joined the
others in the hunt because he was a
coward. Her words were so bitter that
John departed for the quarry, carrying
an old gun.
Rosa soon repented her hasty words,
and believing her husbands life in
danger, followed him. In the quarry
she met Big Frank, who urged her to
flee with him. She got away, Frank
pursued, but for a moment lost her
trail. Nearby was powder shack and

MILITARY INSURANCE

Despite its rediculously low cost but
a fifth of the men in the United States
army and navy, up to last week, had
made application for federal insurance.
To speed up applications the govern
ment enlisted the aid of Red Cross
chapters. The soldier or sailor must
apply before next Tuesday or lose his
option.
The maximum policy is $4,000. For
a soldier aged rs this would cost him
Sc. 80 a month; for one aged q, $50
month, and 81 month if he were aged
81.
Insurance may be applied for in any
amount of $1,000 or over in multiples oi
$500 and up to $4,000, and the prem
iums are exactly proportional. Fo'
Instance, a $1,000 policy at age 2l woulc
cost 65 cents a month, $1,000 policy
S1.3O, a $4,000 policy 1925 month.
Any man or woman of any age ir
the army or navy service may take ou'
this insurance, and this, of course, in
cludes Red Corss nurses in the service
of the government.
In case of death the benefciarie
may be a wife, husband, child, grand
child, brother or sister, stepbrother Oh
stepsister, adopted brother or adopted
sister, as we'll as parent, grandparent
or stepparent, either of the soldier and
sailor or his wife.
This insurance may be converted al
ter the war into other types Of insur'
ance, which will be cheaper even thar
insurance in regular companies now on
a peace basis.
The insurance will be paid if the in
jured person is totally or permanently
disabled or dies from any cause or at
any time so long as the policy is kept
up.
If you have relative or friend in
the army or navy who has not taken
advantage of the federal insurance, get
in touch with him at once and secure
his application. If you do not know
of his location or feel in doubt on any
matter of the insurance, get in touch
with any of the officials of the Red
Cross here and they will help you. But
get the insurance application.

The CANADIANS MESSAGE

1t was gratifying to see so many of
the people of Hood River present Sun.
day afternoon to hear the addresses Of
the visiting Canadian officers. Per
haps portions of the talks of these men
will bring the light to some who have
been grunting around over wheatless
and meatless days; and perhaps their
words will shame some of those who
have been voicing loud protests of con-
scientious objections over some of the
patriotic drives that have Just been
made.
Over in England it is an offense, one
that is severely punished, to waste
bread in any fashion. Garbage cans
are watched. The fisherboy cannot
bait his hook with scrap of bread. II
is unlawful for bakers to sell bread
less than IL hours old. One cannot
scatter crumbs to his fowls. Such was
the message that Major Edwards
brought us. Our restrictions are com.
paratively mild, and none of us who
is heart and soul behind our boys and
ready to back our allies is going to he
heard grumbling.
All of the patriotic drives that are
being made under government sanction
are worthy ones. Those who object tc
any one viii be found to be going
pretty light on all.
AS one OF the Canadian officers said
Sunday, the man who is continually
grumbling and who is not doing anv.
thing to support the war movement is
hindranee. The war will end all tbe
quicker if all of US get in and do all we
can to help in every manner possible.

Indian Creek Fill Protested

Proposals of the county court to re-
place the wooden bridge across Indian
creek, just south of the city, with an
earth fill and large eulvert has met
with a protest on the part of large
number of citizens of the West Side
orchard district, who declare that an
attractive concrete structure should
span the ravine. 1t is said that a re-
monstrance petition will be filed with
the court this week.
The matter will be finally decided on
by the court this morning. 1t is likely
that calls for bids on an earth fill will
be made. A concrete culvert will be
used under the fill.

feet, will be about half mile longer
than the river rssroute, itsacost, it is esti.

"cHlLpRENS" DANCE FRIDAY

The fourth Of the series of mar.
ried peoples dances will be given at
Heilbronner Hall next Friday even
ing. Kolstad's orchestra furnishes
the music for these dances and, as
the first three have been so popular,
it is expected that large crowd will
be present Friday night.
This is to be a "Children's Party"
and 1t is hoped that all, or nearly all,
who attend win be dressed as young
sters Of Is years or younger. How.
ever, any who do not care to dress
in this way will be welcome il Just
dressed as for a shirtwaist party.
The idea is to give the men a chance
to dress as coolly and comfortably as
possible.
