Paris. - G. N. Barnes, one of the

HOW ABOUT LIBERTY FUEL?

Automobiles are In a state of
mind over the conflicting stories cur
rent about the new Liberty fuel" Of
the war department. According to the
fuel administration the mixture was
found to contain about 65 per cent of
benzol. Inasmuch as the supply of
benzol is limited the amount of Lib
erty fuel that could be produced would
be only about per cent of the pres
ent output of gasoline. Moreover the
fuel when tested left gummy residue,
which would plug up carburetors, and
revealed many other drawbacks.
On the other hand, the war depart.
ment says that the fuel administration
must have tested one of the IS "fake"
mixtures fixed up during the war TO
fool German spies.
According to the war department.
the cost of manufacture is 40 per cent
lower than that of making gasoline.

NAVY WANTS RECRUITS

A U. s. Navy recruiting station,
with Chief Petty Officer w. H. Sand
ers in charge. has been sestabl;shcd
in Wenatchee for the purpose of en-
listing men for the navy who pass
the physical examination and are be-
tween the ages of II and IS years.
At the present time there is a short
age Of men in the navy and when
this condition exists it means that
promotion is much more rapid. So
For the young men who are looking
for a chance to travel. learn trade
and be paid for their work at the
same time, now Is the time to enlist.
Many young fellows think that it
looks bad to go into the service now
after the fighting is over, but the
navy needs men just as badly now
as 1t did while the war was on, and
there are many young fellows in the
service now who cannot get back
home because there are none to take
their places. So those who could not
get In to take a part in the big scrap
should get in now and take the places
of those who have done their bit and
are anxious to get back home again.
High school boys should look up all
information regarding the navy, as
they are the boys who have the bet
ter chance to become officers and go
through Annapolis.
As this district has not made very
good showing so far, Chief Petty Of
ficer Sanders says that he will make
a visit to Chelan. Brewsek. okanog-
an, Omak and Oroville during this
week for the purpose Of distributing
literature and to give information to
and examine prospective applicants.
He will not be able to stop for long
in one town and he asks that any
young man Of Oroville who Is think
ing of enlisting to leave his name, ad-
dress and phone number with the
postmaster and he will communicate
with such applicant as soon as he ar
rives in town.

FARMERS TELEPHONE

Farmers of the valley are TO have
a telephone system with connection
at OrOville. Wire has been ordered
and as soon as received will be strung
down the east side of the Okanogan
for distance of about eleven miles
south of Oroville and down the west
side of the river for a distance of
about five miles.
Arrangements have been made with
the directors of the West Okanogan
Valley Irrigation District for the use
of the district poles on the west side
of the Okanogan.
The building of this telephone sys-
tenn will give connections for most of
the farmers in the valley within the
irrigation district and will be of very
great value to them. 1t is another ad-
vance in the direction of making the
valley one large, closely-knit COM
munity and thereby increasing it's at
tractiveness as place in which to
make a home.

"DICTATED BY HATE"

"The treaty." hOwls Herr Fehren-
bach, president of the German ma
tional assembly, was dictated by
hate"
1t was. For once the Hun speaks
truth. But he spoke it unintention-
ally, meaning it to be lie. He meant
that the treaty was dictated by hate
which the Allies have in their heart
toward Germany. That is not true.
If it were If the treaty had been
framed according to the hatred of
the Huns which all civilized men
would be justified in cherishing, 1t
would have been far different in
strument from what 1t is.
The hate which inspired this treaty
was Germany's own. 1t was the
spirit which breathed through that
Hymn of Hate" which four years ago
was the most popular ode in Germany.
1t was the spirit which made the
whole Hunnish people adopt, as a
morning greeting, "Gott strafe Eng
land!" and later, "Gott strafe Amer
ika!" German scholars have long
prided themselves upon their meta
physics and their psychology. Surely
they should be able to discern and 70
understand how that hellish spirit or
hatred which they themselves con-
ceiyed in wantonness and cherished
in malignity has reacted upon them
selves with deadly force
It was because of Germanys hatred
of her neighbors that those neighbor
nations were compelled to take up
arms in self defense and crush the
hating and hateful Thing. 1t was be-
cause of the German peoples hatred
of other peoples, that those other peo-
ples now take means to prevent them
from ever again making that hatred
effective for harm.
Yes, the treaty had its origin Ill
hate. But it was Hunnish hate'

vIGILANTEs

Rumor has 1t that Orovilie narbors
an organized band of vigilantes.
Rumor Is circumstantial in relating
the activities Of this organization but
peculiarly reticent when 1t comes to
divulging names. AS the story goes
one day last week theft of a valu-
able watch and certain other less val
liable personal possessions was CON-
mitted and evidence of a kind that
carried conviction to the investigat-
ors pointed the finger Of accusation
at a young fellow who drifted in here
from the coast not long ago and had
lived without apparent effort but al
ways more or less under cloud of
suspicion. The victim of the theft
was a young man and the investigat-
Ors of the theft were his young
friends. Having established the guilt
of the young fellow whom they sus-
pected to their own satisfaction they
proceeded to deliver judgment, impose
punishment and exact the penalty
commensurate with the crime. They
loaded themselves into couple of
automobiles, invited the culprit to 90
with them, and he, still unaware of
pending vengence, accepted The
boys. for such Dame Rumor describes
them, then drove out across the Simil
kameen bridge. halted their cars, got
out and bluntly accused their invited
guest of the theft At first de de-
MED the charge with a show of impu-
dence, but after the court and jury
had cross-questioned him with their
fists he confessed. whereupon he was
sentenced to Punishment from Oro-
Vile for life and given but few min
utes to make his getaway.
This is the story as related by
Dame Rumor and the fact that the
young man accused of the crime has
not since been seen about town ap-
pears to give substance to the tale.

LOOMS ROUND UP

Loomis staged a second Stampede
or Round Up or Wild West show Sun
day in the Sinlahekin valley on the
meadow at the Bob Garrett place.
Several hundred people from the sur.
rounding country attended, there be-
ing 125 automobiles parked in the
meadow.
The show was a fine exhibition of
riding and bucking and thoroughly
pleased the big crowd.
No Mans Land, the horse that no
man has so far been able to ride was
there again and held its title to the
appropriate name given it. Several
buckaroos tried to subdue the animal
but all met the same fate.
Besides the horses that were riden
or that the cowboys attempted to
ride, dozen steers were tried out
and they materially added to the fun.
The show Sunday was engineered
by R.C.Bernard, Ferris Ford. Paul
Loudon, Ray Kinchelo and Hans
Richter.
