MAY WITHDRAW FORc-
ES FROM RUSSIA

Report has it that the American force
at Archangel is to beiwlthdrawn, and if
there is to be any further police duty to
perform IN that country troops Of Euro
pean countries will attend to it. That
information comes as great relief to
people OF WISCONSIN and Michigan, from
which states most of the young men in
the. Russian expedition were taken.
Most narrowing stories are related of
the prlvations and sufferings of those
soldiers, and the impression is wide
spread that 1T was quite unnecessary to
send them there in the first place or
keep them at Archangel after the cap
ture Of that port had been accomplish
ed. Secretary Baker complacently tells
the country that he has heard no COM
plants concerning the Russian situa-
tion. If that be true it is only because
the letters from sorrowing mothers ad-
dressed to him have found their way in
to the waste basket instead of being
laid upon his desk. 1t Is only too ap.
parent that if our small force is retained
at that isolated spot it must be rein
forced TO prevent determination by the
Bolsheviki. The demands Of Republic
ans in the Senate and House that the
boys be withdrawn at once appear to
have reached the ears of the. powers
that be, and their return to more civil.
ized surroundings is promised.

Fingers, Germany, Jan. 1, 1919.
Dear Editor:-Now that am com.
fortably located on the banks of the
historic Rhine will send you a short
letter for your columns. I will give
you brief summary of the work of the
End division in the great world war.
The makeup of the End division is as
follows; Infantry regiments, 5th and 9th
U. S. Marines, 9th and 23rd US. Regu.
lars; Engineers. End U.S., Artillery; 18th
and 18th U. S. 8 inch, 18th US. 6 inch
9Th Machine gun battalion, 4th Trench
mortar battery, Ambulance corps; 1, Is,
16, and %; Field hospitals, nos. /, Is, 16,
and 23rd.
In all our major attacks we had a
great many tanks of all sizes. also flame
throwers and high explosive experts at
tached to the division.
The End division was one of the first
four American divisions to enter the
fight against the Central Empires. On
st. Patricks day 1918, the End went in
to the trenches east of Verdun and
there got their baptism of artillery fire,
gases of all kinds including the sneez-
ing. chlorine and phosgene gases. Nu-
merous raids were pulled off. Our men
we're up and down the German first line
trenches nearly every night. 1t seems
that the Boche early learned that it was
unhealthy to engage the boys in O.D. on
anywhere equal terms. SO when our
raiding parties went, over, the Boche
sneaked back to the End and even the
3rd line trench. This 3rd line known
as the line of resistance. Here the
bulk of the machine guns, trench NOR.
tars and grenade throwers will be
found. After 40 days of trench warfare
we were taken out;and sent near Pom.
toise,, northwest of Paris. Here we
we're made shock division and held as
Foch's famous reserves.
On May Both as we were engaged in
the holiday games word came that the
Boche hordes had broken thru between
Rheims and scissors and had pushed
south to Chateau Thierry on the Marne.
The End was ordered to proceed as fast
AS possible to Chateau Thelrry. The
Marines and Infantry were loaded in
motor trucks furnished by the French
government and driven by Chinese
drivers. As we neared Meux we met
the civilians fleeing before the onrush-
ing German army. Old and young,
some IN silks and some in rags were hur-
rying along the roads leading to Paris.
Poor old women with what clothes and
things they could put on their. backs

Wild Flowers are Appealing

The large areas of rhododendrons
now in bloom on the upper West Fork
are declared especially attractive by
motorists who have travelled through
the Dee district recently. While the
trunk line road from Odell to Dee is
rough in spots. the highways of the
Dee orchard district are excellent. BY
next season the rhododendron country
will likely be the goal Of numerous
motorists. With funds provided by the
county court, public subscription and
the forestry service a road is now be-
ing opened to Lost Lake, one of the
most appealing of Cascade retreats.
Attracted by the variety of scenery
in Skamania and klicktat counties,
Washington, numerous local motorists
spend the week ends motoring to Glen
wood, Husum and Lost Lake The
Washington highways are said to be
in excellent condition. BY making an
early start from Portland motorists
may take the Columbia Highway and,
crossing by local ferry, easily visit the
scenic points of klickitat counties in a
day, it is said In the near future one
of the trips between the mid dColumbia
and Portland may be made by the
North Bank Highway, Incomplete links
Of which will be finished this summer.
