Dr. Robt. c. Crumpton's Letter to His Father Is
 Very Interesting Matter

Dr. w. B. Crumpton has heard recent ly from his son, pr. Robert c. Crump- ton, in Paris, and the portion of his ing. pr. Crumpton is in the medical corps, stationed at the Paris hospital. The letter follows:
 A. R. c. Hospital No. 3, A P. O., 702, December 22, 1918.
 My Dear Daddy: Got your good let ter yesterday and am much pleased to hear of your continued improvement and that you will go south for sure during the cold months, and you'd better take mother With you for awhile, anyway, as the change will do her good, too. T want to get back and go to work. as I believe I've done my bit. Prob ably it will be several months before I'll see the states again.
 Our hospital has been designated as the official one during the peace conference and should the President or any associated with him get sick this hospital will receive them.
 Paris gave President Wilson a won derful ovation and I'm mighty glad he came over. l fear that the French and British are not broad enough in their views as to terms and conditions and 1nasmuch as he commands the ut most respect and admiration from them, he's about the only man that can han dle them. fear the British are very grasping and may demand too much, but the President, in whom every body on this side has the utmost con- fidence, will probably be able to save the situation.

MISS TARBELL TELLS
OF PEACE CONFERENCE
Noted Woman journalist To
Describe Versailles Meet
ing In Salem.

Direct from France where she has
been an interested and an official OBJ
server at the peace conference, comes
Ida NJ. Tarbell, Americas foremost
woman journalist. She arrived on this
side only recently and began work
few days ago with the Ellison White
Chautauqua at Ogden Utsh. and win
finish the present season with shis or
ganization.
If an appropriate term could be bor-
rowed from the journalistic field it
might be said that the coming Of Miss
Tarbell on the Ellison-White circuit is
generally considered in Chantanqua
circles throughout the United States as
the greatest "seoopN in ehautauqua
history. Miss Tarbell is probably the
first person of note back in the United
States since the final agreement was
reached in the peace conference. She
was under contract with the Ellison
White Chautauqua people last year and
expected 10 be back in the early spring
in order to start the season. Unfortunate
ly in a way,the peace conference wasde
Ilayed and Miss Tarbcl felt that she
should remain there until it would be
possible for her to get the necessary
data and material to give the Chautau-
qua people Of the West firsthand in
formation on the big events that were
transpiring in France.
Miss Tarbell, according to critics and
newspapers at Ogden where her first
date was given, has a most wonderful
word picture of the peace conference,
Of the statesmen there, the delegations,
and the inneworkings Of the world s
big problems. She was one of com
paratively few journalistic notables
who were fortunate TO be in the inn
mediate vicinity of the peace table.
As a magazine writer and student Of
the big social problems of the day
Miss Tarbell is perhaps better known
than any other American parsonage at
this time. With her wonderful mind she
has grasped the momcntous and intri-
cate world problems which have como
up before the allied nations at the
peace conference and her information
is TO come first hand TO all of the
Chautauqua patrons on the Ellison
White circuit.
General Manager J. r. Ellison made
special trip over from Portland TO
hear Miss Tarbell on her first date and
wired back to the office Immediately
that her lecture was profound SEN
sation. Miss Tarbell is one of the many
star attractions at the ChaWauqua this
week.
Miss Tarbell was the official cor.
respondent of syndicate Of great
American newspapers at the peace con.
ference, and her work in this capacity I
has attracted wide attention. This is
now to be overshadowed by the com
ing of Miss Tarbell personally to tell
of this great chapter in the world
history, which has just been completed.
