Alsace-Lorraine

It will be recalled that an American field
army, ready for independent operations, is sta
toned in the district south of Verdun, on a Sec
ton of the front closest to the Rhine Our troops
have taken over the strip of German soil seized
by the French at the outset of the war. Few
changes have been made in the lines on this
front, owing to the major operations of the Ger
mans in Flanders and northern France, which
forced the Allies to accept battle that frontier
and prevented the French from ousting the Ger
mans in the easily defended mountain positions
of the Lorraine region
What disposition Marshal Foch intends to
make of the main American army on that front
remains unrevealed. These alternatives present
themselves Either gigantic thrust into south
ern Germany will be made with the Americans
battering ram, or the greater part of this
army is already on it's way to Flanders to help
crush decisively the crumbling Hndenburg line.
Admittedly the American field army will not be
permitted to lie idle while Marshal Foch has Lud-
endorff on the run. Ignoring for the present the
latter alternative, let us present the arguments
of the critics who believe that the American army
may strike through Lorraine.
Alsace-L Lorraine, roughly described, is the ter
ritory bounded the east by the Rhine, on the
west by the Vosges mountains, on the north by
Luxembourg and on the south by Switzerland
It's area is about 1904 square miles, it's popula-
tion almost 100000. It contains excellent iron
ore and coal deposits. Germany took Alsace-
Lorraine after the Franco-Prussian war. A large
portion of the inhabitants never became recon-
ciled to the regime and took advantage of
every opportunity to show it's love for France
and it's hatred for the conquerors An invading
army therefore will be welcomed by many thous-
ands of the inhabitants.
The historic invasions of France from east of
the Rhine have come through the valleys that
lead to Paris from the northeast. Verdun,

Beautiful In West

For conifers, evergreens, trees of var.
ious colored foliages and color schemes

grounds excel even those Of Phoenix,
Arizona, or those of Sacramento, Cal,
This is the candid opinion of Prof. Z.
M. Humtsinger of Hartford, Conn.,, who
travels extensively ond who recently
made his seventh visit to Salem.
In a discussion of the great variety
Of trees to be found on the state house
grounds, the professor deplored the fact
that the head of the robust Sequoia
Gigantes had been removed and could
not understand the reason for such dis
figurement Of this particular tree. He
hopes the superintendent of the state
grounds will secure lusty young Gil
gantea from the National Sequoia Park
and plant it in some suitable location
northwest Of the fountain.
Professor Huntsinger refers in flat
tering terms to those superb specimens
OF copper beeches and bronze naples on
ths library grounds. He says the plant
ing Of the trees and shrubbery and
roses and the color harmony is most
satisfying. He is charmed with the eli

To look one 5 best and feel one 5
best is to enjoy an inside hath each
morning to flush from the system the
previous days waste, sour fermenta-
tions and poisonous toxins before it is
absorbed into the blood. Just as coal,
when it burns, leaves behind certain
amount Of ineombustible material in
the form of ashes, 50 the food and
drink taken each day leave in the ali
mentary organs q certain amount Of
indigestible material, which If not

which are then sucked into the blood
through the very ducts which are in

If you want to see the glow Of
healthy bloom in your cheeks, to see
your skin get clearer and clearer, you
are told to drink every morning upon
arising, a glass Of hot water with a
teaspoonful Of limestone phosphate in
it, which is a harmless means of wash
ing the waste material and toxins from
the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels,
thus cleansing, sweetening and purify

putting more food into the stomach.
Men and women with sallOw skins,

one or two weeks.
A quarter pound of limestone phos-
phate costs very little at the drug
store but is sufficient to demonstrate
that just as soap and hot water
cleanses, purifies and freshens the
skin ON the outside, so hot water and
limestone phosphate act on the inside

internal sanitation is vastly more inn
portant than outside cleanliness, be-
cause the skin pores do NOT absorb i'm

Local Southern Pacific
Employees Get More Pay

About GO of the local employees Of
the Southern Pacific will benefit by
the advance in wages to be allowed al
railroad employees. While the proposed
increase in pay is based on the salary
of 1915, those who have not received
any material advances during the past
tive years will fare the best.
In the s. p. freight offices are Il
employees who win come in for a slight
advance, with pay dating back to Jan.
uary Of this year. In the passenger
service 10 viii benefit along with two
bridgemen and Is trainmen. 1t is the
trainmen who win be mostly benefited
as they have had no material increase
in salary the past two years. Twenty
section men on the 8. Z. and seven on
the O. Z. win benefit.
1t is estimated that the S. P. men
may receive about $1,000 in back pay
and that their salary list will be about
$1,000 more than at present. About 20
men in the Oregon Electric service viii
come in for an advance according to
the announcement made today. The in.
crease in pay is based on what the sal.
larry was in 1915 aAd those who have
been receiving increases for the past
two years viii not benefit as much as
the service wherein there has heeH but
little salary advance within the past
two years.
However, no salary is to be less than
the present pay roll and women are to
receive the same pay as men when they
are doing the same work that was for
merly done by men.

DR. LEONARD WOOD
WOULD CO TORRANCE
Surgeon Created General by
nOOseyelt Wants to Boss
Army Job

Washington, May 2S.-That Major
General Wood will carry his fight for
service abroad directly to President
Wilson was indicated today when il
was learned at the White House that
Wood would see the president at 6
clock tonight.
Wood IS appointment with the Presi-
dent was arranged by Secretary of War
Baker. This led to the general belief
that Wood asked permission to lay his
case before the president after the war
department had changed its plans and
moved him from the leadership Of his
division in France to command of the
western departmnt at Sean Francisco.
The government change in plans
switching Major General Leonard Wood
from expected service in France to com
mand the western department-promises
to make Wood once more a storm cen
ter.
His friends, both in the army and in
political life, today expressed their re-
sentiment that Wood should apparently
have been sidetraeked despite his plea
for more active service.
Wood was relieved of his command
as chief of the Eighty Ninth division
national army, virtually on the eve
of the division s service in France. No
reason for the change is given at the
war department. The general himself re-
fused to discuss it last night before
leaving for New York.
When Wood returned from France
some weeks ago after tour of the bat
tie front, he successfully passed his ply.
steal examination and only last week it
was stated officially he would soon be
IN France.
General Wood conferred with Senator
Warren, father-in-law of General Per-
shing, and member of the senate mill
tary affairs committee at the capitol to-
day. Both Wood and Warren declined
to discuss the conference.
81 am a soldier and ready to so
wherever / am ordered" was all the
comment Wood had to make.
Pershing Opposes wood
Those ON the "insiden here view
the present situation developing around
Wood as a test between General Per
shing and Wood. 1t is understood in
army circles that Pershing is not en-.
thusiastic about having Wood in
France now and may be responsible
for the shift in war department plans.
On this point it is known that the
war department is inclined to support
Pershing to the utmost.

THIN PEOPLE
SHOULDTAkE
PHOSPHATE
Nothing Like Plain Bitro- Phosphate to
Put on Firm, Hsalthy Flesh and
to Increase Strength, Vigor
and Nerve Force

Judging from the countless prepara-
lions and treatments which are con-
tinually being advertised for the pur-
pose Of making thin peoeple fleshy, de-
veloping arms, neck and bust, and re-
placing ugly honows and angles by the
soft curved lines of health and beauty,
there are evidently thousands of men
and women who keenly feel their ex-
cessive thinness.
Thinness and weakness. are usually
due to starved nerves. Our bodies need
more phosphate than is contained in
modern foods. Physicians claim there
is nothing that will supply this def
cheney so well as the organic phosphats
known among druggists as bitro-phOs-
phate, which is inexpensive and is sold
BY most all druggists under guaraa-
tee Of satisfaction or money back. By
feeding the nerves direetly and by
supplying the body cells with the nee
esary phosphoric food elements, bitrO-
phosphate quickly produces welcome
Transformation in the appearance; the
increase in weight frequently being
astonishing.
This increase in weight also carries
with it general improvement in the
health. Nervousness, sleeplessness and
lack of energy which nearly always
accompany excessive thinness, soon
disappear, dull eyes become bright, and
pale checks glow with the bloom of
perfect health.
CAUTION = Although, bitro-phos-
phate is unsurpassed for relieving
nervousness, sleeplessness and general
weakness it should not, owing to its
remarkable flesh growing properties, be
used by anyone who does not desire to
put on flesh.

Cost Of Substitutes
Is Important Matter

Now that Oregon is wheatless as far
as the good housekeeper is concerned
the next question is the cost Of sub
stitutas and this is where the weekly
table allowance Of the housewife will
play in hard luck.
Wheat flour has been selling at six
cents a pound. Now that substitutes
must be used the good housekeeper win
have the pleasure of paying about eight
and one-half cents a pound for eat or
barley flour and also for corn flour or
corn meal.
Other substitutes are somewhat high
er, such as corn starch at 121a cents
a pound, rice flour at 1874 cents, ,>roll-
ed oats about eight and one third cents
pound and potato flour, where there
is any, at 20 cents a pound. :.
Logging camps, hospitals and baker
les are permitted TO buy wheat flour
although the bakeries are cut down 70
