TAGS TO BE SOLD
FOR MEMORIAL

AS Multnomah county has converted
the eminence at Crown Point, with its
Vista House, into memorial to Ore
gon pioneers, citizens of Hood River
county plan on turning a rocksided
promontory of the Columbia gorge at
Ruthton hill into a memorial park for
the eight men of the county who made
the supreme sacrifice and a testimonial
of their esteem to all Hood River coun-
ty veterans Of the World war.
Q. p. Dabney has offered the dona-
tion Of the Ruthton point property.
With native stone Of durable quality
at hand, lasting wall may be erected
around the edge of the point at NOM
inal cost. Indeed, a great quantity If
the stone was saved when crews were
cutting the grade of the Columbia
Highway along the point, and with
this as material shaft, enfolding a
bronze plate for the heroes names,
may be reared.
At the Fourth of July celebration a
booth, in charge of young women of
the city. will be provided for sale of
tag. BY this means it is expected that
fund sufficient for the improvement
of the park, landscape gardening and
the construction of walls and monu-
ment will be raised. DR.. j. f. Watt,
who suggested such honor to Hood
Rivers great war veterans nearly
year ago. has been appointed to take
charge.of raising the fund. He will be
assisted by X. f. Scott and d. G.
Cruikshank.
lThe committee has made call for
all souvenirs brought from France by
returning soldiers for the decoration of
Memorial booth on the Fourth. 1t is ex-
pected that an interesting array of
shell cases, gas masks and captured
German trophies will be displayed.
A plentiful supply OF water is avala-
| bic near the proposed memorial park.
While no definite arrangements for
| laying out the plot have been made, it
has been tentatively planned to plant a
part with shrubs and Towering peren-
mails. Rustic seats for visitors will be
provided. and a unique drinking foun-
tain will be arranged. At the west end
of the point. where the Highway pass
es through rock cut. stone stairs will
lead to the level of the park. A the
east end driveway, leaving the High
way, will make circle of the park.
Because of the appealing expanse Of
| Columbia river gorge and the view one
is given of the small area of cultivated
| loWlands of the Columbia at this point,
the Ruthton promontory has already
become we'll known to the frequent az
well as the casual motorist over the
scenic highway.

WOMEN PRESENT,
RUIN BOSS EFFICIENCY

c. A. Bell. l.. S. Bennett and W. J.
White, the latter representative of the
Pacific Paper Co., Portland, tell of an
interesting trip Monday night up the
Columbia Highway under construction
between here and Mosier. After mar
yelling at the skill and speed with
which steam shovel operator dipped
earth and boulders from a cut and
heaped them on dump cars, never los
ing a pinch of earth and laying ton
stones aboard the cars as tenderly as if
he were handling a baby, the men pro-
ceeded down the dumpline in time to
bottom of fill.
Expecting a display of wrath and
strong language on the return of the
boss of the dumping crew, who had
been absent from the work making
coffee, the men fingered. But before
the six-foot lrishman got back another
local party, with women along, joined
the spectators watching the men haul
back the car uR the 20-foot bank to the
track. The Irish boss saw the wreck
and in the next instant his eyes swept
the women. A roar was drowned in
his throat. He became as courteous as
an ambassador at court function
Never were men ordered to clear a
wreck with language of greater dig.
nifty.
please hitch those mules to that
under axle. kindly tighten that
chain there, and I'm thank you for
little more slack, " were some of the
expressions remembered by the party.
His underlings were nonpIussed.
They were so dazed that their effici-
ency as workmen was sadly spoiled.
The party with the women, however.
soon strolled back toward town, and
when the boss saw that they were out
of earshot he opened the foodgates.
He became normal himself, and his
men, when he resumed language that
they understood quickly placed the
dumpcar back on the its track.

Washington society, that part Of

necklaces are made in the less ex-
pensive jewels as we'll as the most
precious sort and young girls over
here may be expected to wear them
on the street over their shirt waists.
"Bobbing the hair became the
rage in Paris during the war be-
cause the French women didn't have
the time to comb their heads. This
winter the bobbed hair will be
brushed back and caught with head
fitting combs set with jewels, be-
meath which it will fall in curls:
This style will bring in revival OF
earrings. Stud earrings are ia
boo. Earrings should be long and
pendent With this mode of wear
ing the hair, long, narrow barrettes
Of platinum and diamonds will be
popular.
"Another coiffure that is popular
in Paris is to part the hair Just
above one ear and brush it all across
the head and let it fall over one ear.
This has brought in the style for one
earring. This earring is very laxge
some are three and four inches
long and swing almost to the shoul-
der. A great jeweled comb is worn
at the back OF the head. Tremen-
dously big Spanish combs are also
a craze. They are gorgeous with
Jewels. Signs in the theaters re-
quest the ladies to remove their
combs. If they didn't those sitting
behind-+hem couldn't see the stage.
THE most beautiful bracelets |
saw abroad were pearl ropes wound
all about the arm from wrist to ell
bow with bracelets of platinum and
gems covering the arm from elbow
to shoulder. This sort of ornamen-
tation is worn also with afternoon
gowns which are made with loose
kimono sleeves. Many of the brace
lets are hung with platinum ban
giles, polished, plain or frosted.
THE gems of finger rings anu
bracelets must be all of one color on
one hand and arm and of a different
colored gem on the other. 1t is
considered artistically crime in
Paris to wear the same colored
gems on both hands and arms. A
striking effect is achieved by wear
ing sapphires on one hand and arm
and either brown topazes or canary
diamonds on the other.
SOLITAIRE rings have gone out.
The fashion is for twin-stone rings
or clusters in which the gems are
50 close together that the setting
is not visible. The clusters are sur-
rounded by border of platinum.
The rings are worn on all fingers
and the line they make across the
hand rises diagonally from the little
finger to far up the index finger.
"Shoe buckles are in great vogue.
They are small and gay with jewels.
The stones must not be rhinestones
or glass, but real gems that match
the other jewels that milady hap
pens to be wearing. Fans are Of
the single-stick variety heavy with
ostrich plumes. The stick is set
with jewels which must match the
color of the plumes. which in turn
must match the jewels on arms. legs
and throat.

fashions" Miss Archer concluded.

fashions.
And don't think they are not

Paris fashion, according to Miss
Archer, has decreed that women
must wear these oddities:
Knee dresses.
Anklets studded with precious
stones.
Evening gowns with very little
front, no back to speak of and not a
hint Of sleeves.
Bobbed hair pushed straight back
from the forehead and hanging in
Curls about the neck.

The bare arms will be covered
with windings of rope of jewels
or with many bracelets both below
and above the elbow. The jewels on
one arm will be of one color and
those of the other arm will be of
another color.
This contrasting color scheme
will apply also to finger rings. The
ring gems on one hand must be
different in color from those on the
other.
Rings will adorn every finger Of
both hands and will be of massed
diagonal line across the hand.
Necklaces will be of double and
triple strings of gems most of them
OF extreme length and will be hung
with jeweled pendents at the back
and front.

Archer, will be very much shorter.
Knee skirts will be fashionable.
They are wearing them in Paris
now. ! think they are hideous-but
then I'm not man. If American
men are like those in Paris, they
will think them beautiful. The chief
danger on Partisan boulevards, I
found was from collisions with men
who had turned their heads to stare
at some vision Of loveliness in knee
dresses.
"The anklets will be of platinum
and gold flashing with all sorts of
jewels. They will fit around the
naked flesh under the silk stockings
from beneath whose film the gems
will gleam duskily. In Paris, the
very best people are wearing them
and I expect them to be equally as
popular here.

serve as shoulder straps. The most

Home Output of Peanut Oil
Is Now Only Second to That
Of Linseed and Cottonseed

The war has brought the peanut
into its own. Before 1914 peanut oil
was almost unknown as an article Of
domestic manufacture and thousands
Of gallons were imported every year
from countries that grew no peanuts,
although the South was producing mill
lions Of pounds and capable OF in
creasing that production almost in.
definitely. But in 1917 the output of
peanut oil had SO increased that It
ranked third among all the vegetable
oils made from homegrown products
being exceeded only by cottonseed oil
end linseed oil. Peanut oil, it is point
ed out by experts in aliment, serves
practically the same food purposes
as does cottonseed oil, and has the
advantage that 1t can be obtained
by cold pressing like olive oil, and
becomes thereby a superior table oil.
1t has the advantage over cottonseed
oil also in that the cake, after the
oil is pressed out, forms a palatable
human food very high in protein.
A survey by the federal bureau OF
markets shows the great gain in the
production and use of peanuts, not
only for oil but for peanut butter,
and as a substitute for more costly
nuts or as component part In con.
fectionery.
