THE SLACkER

From the Atlantic to the Pacific the
Stacker, the chronic recalcitrant and
the pro-hun are meeting with their
desserts these DAYS. While stupen-
dous, amazing and inspiring patriotic
sentiment, one that YIELDS the nation
together from corner to corner. surges
ever stronger around them, those few
men and women who still howl and
moan the nonsense and perversiOns Of
pacificism, wander like lost souls. As
the beasts Of wood and field shun the
polecat, so do their fellow men shun
these pacifcists, who hide behind
mouthings of alleged dictates of their
tender consciences. The thunderbolt
of righteous criticism and Indignation
is hurled at them. they are scared by
the burning thoughts of mothers and
fathers who have sent their sons to do
battle and win victory for the protec-
tion of the undeserving winners, they
have won a great nations anathema.
And yet you will sometimes hear
these puny, contemptuous slackers try
ing to goad themselves into fit of an
ger over the alleged loss of reputa.
ton at the hands of their fellow men.
Certainly, their reputation has become
a thing to be despised
Whose fault is it?
Let them look in the mirror.

FIRE TAKES ANOTHER
OLD LANDMARK

Fire Of mysterious origin destroyed
a two story structure adjoining the
Mount Hood hotel. Tuesday morning
Sides Of the hotel and the Gerdes
House, the slatter on the opposite side
Of Cascade avenue. We're scorched.
Night Marshal Frazier, about 3.30
o'clock, heard a subdued explosion in
the old building. This was immediate
" followed by a rush Of flames. An
O.-W. K. & n. freight crew simultane-
ously saw the FIRE and sounded the
warning by the locomotives whistle.
The structure was built about 80
years ago by Seward Bros. as an an
mex rOOming house of the Mount Hood
hotel, which they were operating IN
der lease from Robert Rand.
The old building has not been Oceu-
pied for more than a year. The origin
of the fire is unknown. Despite the
fact that the Volunteer fire depart
ment has recently lost II men through
enhstments, the organization was on
the scene in 10 minutes after the alarm
sounded. Their quick work saved the
big Mount Hood hotel and other ad.
joining structures.
The old building was owned by c. A.
Bell. The building. valued at 81, 500,
was insured for 200.

MR.. APPLE GROWER

Don't place your order for grading
machine until you have seen the 1918
model CUTLER. A new sorting table
is used, which will reduce your cost Of
sorting by 40 or so per cent The fruit
is moved across in front of the sorters
and is revolved slowly so that the sort
er can easily see any defects and only
picks out the culls and lower grades.
The predominant grade passes auto
matically into the grader without any
handling by the sorter, and it is this
fact which results in the maximum
output per sorter with minimum cost
per box.
Don't buy machine just because its
first cost is low It's very easy to
drop $l00 in wages by using an inefIici-
ent grader. CUTLER GRADERS pay
for themselves in "a short time.
We will have a demonstration in
Hood River in the near future. notice
Of which will be given in the papres.

for Paris Island, S. c., the marine
training camp.
The force consisted of four able bod
led men, Robert Nader, Clinton Nader,
Charles Shut and Chester Bisby. The
Jail at Macuh Chunk has not been oc.

''It's bull Cow and calf doing fine
thank you, was the message Judge
Derby telegraphed to Circuit Judge
Wilson, of The Dalles, Immediately he
learned that the stork had visited his
prize Jersey heifer.
Adopting policies of war time econ
omy last fall, Judge Derby leased va
cant lots on the outskirts of the city
near his home built COW barn and in
stalled the premium heifer. Unaccus-
toned ITO the duties of milking and
care of COW his trials at first were
many and varied and he was joshed
numerically by his fellow attorneys
and Judge Wilson. Cow-keeping reached
an unpleasant climax for Judge Derby
several weeks ago when his heifer
planted kick on one of his shins.
Blood poison resulted and he was in
the hospital for a week. But Mr.. Der.
by remained strong for his COW and
the daily quota Of fresh milk she furn-
ished and his JOY knew no bounds when
the heifer gave birth to male calf.
The new arrival was first seen by a
neighbor who telephoned the tidings
to the Derby family. When visit was
made to see the calf it had disap.
peared. Cows. especially young cows,
so those familiar with the range say,
have habit Of hiding their young off
spring The search was unavailing.
Marshal Carson joined, in and a dog was
used in the search. While the party
grieyed someone happened to enter the
COW barn, and there, lying snugly in a
corner beneath manger, was the un-
moving fawnlke little animal. MIR.
Carson, skilled cow man, has beer
attending the little heifer, and as his
reward will take the little calf to rear.
Judge Derby says his COW bids fair tc
give about five gallons of milk per day.

F. A. Massee and J. T. Holman,
county road viewers, in company with
A. r. Cruikshank, county engineer,
completed the viewing of the Hood
River-Mosier stretch of the Columbia
Highway within this county last week.
Mr.. Massee says that he believes
that most of the Hood River county
construction will be comparatively
easy, being composed to large extent
of earth excavation. The last mile of
the work, however, will be expensive,
because of much solid rock.

We will present the superb Geral-
dine Farrar in "The Devil Stone. -
Miss Farrar has won fame throughout
the world as one of the greatest act
resses in the entire history of the
stage. and stories of tremendous power
and virility must necessarily be select.
ed to provide her with roles broad
enough for the display of her remark
able talent.
''The Devil Stone" is an extraordin-
airy photoplay founded on superstition.
Miss Farrar interprets the role of a
fisher girl, Marcia Manot, who finds a
priceless emerald. Her simple mind
associates the jewel with legends
handed down through generations in
which the pagan queen, Grenelda. stole
the jewel from Christian church and
curse follows possession of the treas
ures until they are restored to the
rightful owner.
Marcia soon begins to experience
trouble and sorrow. "A rich old miser
who covets the emerald marries her.

as the emerald is in his hands. The

old scoundrel weaves about her The
old man loses his life in a sensational
manner and Marcia is accused of the
