CLOTHING QUOTA IS
READY,F0R SHIPMENT

Josephine county's quota OF cloth
ing for Belgian refugees has been
completed and is packed ready for
shipment. The 1ls tons had been
donated the first week and by We'd
nesday every article needed to make
up the 5000 pounds had been receiy-
ed and Systematically packed in care
fully lined boxes. The committee
wishes to thank a generous and sym
pathetic public for the quantity and
quality of the splendid assortment
Of clothing donated. Many garments
we're new and fully so per cent will
wear as long as new. Many gar
ments big and little had been treas
ured for years were given that would
not have been parted with for any
other purpose. The committee feels
that the allotment from Josephine
county will not be surpassed any
where.
Many large bundles of clothing
came from remote sections OF the
county after the quota had been fill
ed Arrangements satisfactory to
the donors will be made for the dis
position Of these articles.
The fear that the shipments may
fall into German hands has been Of
ten expressed but the following from
Herbert Hoover will allay all fears:
''All clothing collected In America
for Belgium is consigned to the Of
flee of the commission for relief of
Belgium, at Rotterdam, placed in
sealed barges and sent into Belgium
to the neutral Holland-Spanish COM
mittee, which, working under the
protection Of laolland-Spanish min
listers in Brussels, controls final dis
tribution Of this clothing to Belgian
civilians and accounts to the COM
mission for every article Of clothing
sent to It. Absolutely none Of this
clothing falls into German hands.

ARMEN WIN MUCH GLORY
German Filters Catch the American
Spirit and Their Dare-DeviItry
Almost Equal to the YanIu

London, Oct. SIN an offensive
between the Meuse and Aire the
Americans scored an advance OF
from two to three miles. moving
over the most difficult country en-
countered In the Argonne fighting.
Cunel, mile and half northeast
|of Romagne. was captured.
With the American Army North
west Of verdun, Oct. 5-The Ameri-
cans resumed the attack this morn
ing west Of the Meuse and advanced
their lines from two to five ldlo-
meters.
The American aviators again COW
cred themselves with glory and per-
formed almost the impossible in to-
days drive. Dawn broke with mists
heavy over the trenches and the
country across which the Americans
we're to go, and 1t was hours before
the weather cleared sufficiently to
permit Of any observation to speak
lot. "a
The splendid liaison that marked
the days operations and which was
nearly ideal under the circumstances
was due in great part to the work Of
Iaviators, who countless times risked
their lives in reconnoitering, attack
ing the retreating Germans and
bringing back reports. To this was
added the fact that the German fliers
seemed for once inspired by dare
deviltry and bravery equal to the
American aviators and during the
entire morning, particularly in the
center Of the action. they swooped
over the heads of the American In
fantry only few hundred meters
above the earth. using machine guns
with telling effect until driven on.
Chiefly because o. this daring the
German loses were unusually heavy
and even the American anti-aircraft
batteries accounted for seven ma
chimes. which they brought down
without trouble at the short ranges
they could use. One more German
plane fell to the prowess of an in
fantryman who was carrying an anti
tank gun captured few moments
before and which he turned on an
aviator just overhead, bringing him
down instantly.
