j. s. FOOD SAVES
FRENCH REFUGEES

WITH THE BRITISH ARMIES IN
FRANCE, Sept s.-Forty-three refu-
gees-men, women. boys and girls
from the little village of Recount,
near Cambria. today acknowledged
their gratitude TO America for food
which sustained them for four years,
while they were in the hands Of the
German army.
Sitting and standing on a little
hin slope far behind the lines, view
ing the beauty OF a country unmar-
red by war, and a peaceful village
with its roofs unchanged by shells,
they expressed gratitude for many
things-their dellverance by the Brit
ish, the kindly hospitality OF French
villagers, and the very sound of their
native tongue. They said they had
heard the German language until
their own sounded almost strange.
The refugees said they were CRATE
full to Holland, Spain and to the
Americans who had devoted them
selves for three years to feeding the
people behind the enemy lines.
Spoke Pity1ngIy.
or the Germans they spoke almost
pity1ngly. They know they're
beaten" said one. MANY told us IL
now makes no difference who beats
GermAny-England, France or Amer.
lea What they want is to be freed
from their part in it"
This, II was pointed out, was the
tone OF the common soldiers. The Of
fieers consistently argued that Ger.
many is bound to win. For two years,
the villagers related, they had dis
puted about the war almost in friend
" fashion with their unwelcome
guests.
I'VE never doubted that some day
we would be freed, and we were will
ing to endure as long as necessary,
knowing only one end was possible,
they declared.
There were no tales of abuses or
cruelties. On the contrary, they said
the Germans had treated them re-
spectfully.
Supplies Inadequate.
Once early in the war when food
supplies were inadequate the women
organized a sort of strike, refusing
TO wash clothes or care for the rooms
occupied by German officers unless
conditions were improved. They won
the strike.
However. II was asserted that some
times the Germans substituted infer
ior flour for that sent them by relief
societies, and gave them too much
sauerkraut, which they suspected was
being substituted for other foods. The
villagers did not know the word
sauerkraut, but they described it BY
gestures, laughter and shrugs.

INFLUENZA WAS
CAUSE OF WRECK

According to report coming from
Baker the cause of the wreck which
delayed O.-W. trains the other day
can be placed to influenza, The re-
port says that a conductor of a west
bound freight train on the main line
and not the engineer, was running
the engine whe the accidet occurred.
The conductor had relieved the
engineer, who became very i'll and
delirous after leaving Huntington. An
ambulance from Baker went to the
scene Of the wreck after the stricken
engineer and at the hospital he was
found to be suffering from influen,
"a and Use in a critical condition. Being
to the duties of engineer, the

to control the train as he approached

PORTLAND. oct 19.-Publicatior

fourth Liberty Loan is approved by
! the general executive board of the
18th Federal Reserve District. which
district recently adopted resolution
to that effect.
Where committees have names of
affected by the publication of their
names. it is recommended that the
cases be reported to the central lib
erty loan committee, tu order that It
may enlist the assistance of the State
Council of Defense. A public trial
held under the auspices of the county
and state Councils of Defense is sug-
gested as one means of securing desir-
ed results and the central committee
has pledged itself to cooperate.
While the publication of the names
of "slackers' after the loan period
has expired will not produce funds for
the present campaign, it is designed
to show people who made sacrifices
In order to subscribe the limit, that
the local and state liberty loan or
ganizations are treating them fairly
and il may produce results in the fifth
campaign.
In a circular letter, the central COM
mfttee says the slcker evil is not
nearly so great in oregon as in some
ether states, but every liberty loan
worker IN Oregon knows where thero
are slackers and fully appreciates the
necessity of adequate measures for
such cases.

| The Bugle, weekly newspaper pub
lished by the soldier boys at CamI
Lewis, has several stories relating t,
Pendleton and the trip of the Depo
Brigade Band to the Roundup. AL
the stories show great friendliness fol
the town and appreciation of the way
the boys were treated here. One o.
the stories is as follows
Let 'er Buck was the first expires,
sion the boys of the Brigade band
heard when they stepped off the train
at Pendleton.
Well. the boys did let FER buck
whenever they were at work. Every
morning the band paraded the streets
and the business men We're real men.
All merchants and business men did
their share to treat the boys to fruits,
eats, drinks and smokes, an every
thing.
BY the time the boys were ready
to go back to their quarters they al
ways had all they could carry.
The committee had a new band
stand built for the band. Yes. they
said. This is the best band we have
ever had for the Round-Up.' Every
afternoon the Brigade band was at
the stand opposite the grand stand.
In the evening the people were en-
tertained at the Happy Canyon. There
too the band was busy. Every even-
ing the band played a concert from
Z to 8 o'clock Then Lieutenant
picked about 90 men to
play for the performance. The fl
nale was well worth the price of ad~

finest art and old Glory waved above
all.
The boys of the Brigade band want
one more trip, That is, another trip
TO Pendleton. Almost everything was
free TO the boys of the Brigade band,
They stayed with different families
of Pendleton. and to say the least
each man must have gained five
pounds because everyone was ready
to treat the boys. All the boys say
there are many big cars and pretty
girls in Pendleton, Furthermore.
they enjoyed many trips while there,
for there was plenty of room for a
band boy from Camp Lewis.
