KNIGHTS MAKE BIG
RECORD IN SERVICE

The following article clipped
from the editorial page of the San
Francisco Examiner gives an idea of
the splendid work done by the
knights of Columbus in their great
war work campaign:
''The accounting made by the
knights of Columbus for it's part of
the United War Drive Fund reveals
that work admittedly we'll done has
been achieved at surprisingly low
overhead cost.
"Of the $25,O00,00O assigned to
this organization out of the total
fund of $17O,500,OO contributed to
the united fund there had been spent
at the end of the first fiscal year
on June 80, last, 5,468,060.79 for
work in the United States, an $9,-

THOUSANDS OF DUCKS
DIE FROM DRINKING
LAKE ALKALI WATER

Thousands of ducks have dted
during the past week or more In
Lower Klamath Lake from drinking
the alkali water that has been formed
due to the lowering of the lake,
according to Barney Chambers, pro-
prietor of the Gun Store on Main
street.
A few ducks died last year from
the same cause. according to MT
Chambers, but this year the NOR
tality has reached serious proper
tions. The ducks grow sick imme-
diately after drinking the water and
never leave the lake. Mr.. Cham
hers believes that the government
should Immediately take hold Of the
matter and prevent the destruction
of the birds.
Local sportsmen have been great
" interested in the recent arrival
at the Gun Store of 12-gauge shot
gun from the Winchester factory. the
exact duplicate Of $4,000 or more
guns that were used by many of the
Yankee dougtboys in moving down
the Germans In mass attack. The
gun shoots 81 buckshot and holds
six shells. 1t is equipped with a
special perforated radiator for cool
ing purposes. A long steel
bayonet is used on the gun. The
use of this gun caused the Huns to
issue statements of protests, saying
that the Americans were violating
all rules of international warfare.
