THINK IN INTEREST

Six hundred thousand individuals
and corporations in the Twelfth Fed
era; reserve district wn ch lakes in
the entire Pacific coast collected So
S56,057 from the government last
Thursday. 1t was the semi-annual
interest on Second Liberty loan
bonds.
The specific number of Second
Liberty loan subscribers in the 18th
district was 624.654. The amount
subscribed was s2s2,SO2,S5O. Four
per cent of that divided by two is
s5.S56,O57.
Averaging the interest paid among
the total number of subscribers. each
purchaser OF Second loan bonds re-
ceived 1897. These days ss.S7 is
not to be shifted at.
Uncle Sam, at least, thinks a
whole lot of that s9.37. The gov
ernment wants every man. woman
and child who has interest coming
on Second Liberty loan bonds to col
lect it and Immediately re-invest the
amount in war savings stamps. That
puts your interest at work earning
interest-four per cent compounded
every three months. That is how
men get rich making their money
work for them and making interest
earn interest.
If all the Second Liberty loar
subscribers invest the interest due
them Thursday in war saving
stamps they will have, in the aggre
gate. at the end of the year approx
imately s500,000 more in additiona
earnings. Besides, in the meantime
they are doing the government a ser
vice by placing their money at it
command.

MARY THURMAN GOOD
IN THE POOR BOOB"

When Bryant Washburn, the Par
amount star, was told that Mary
Thurman was to have an important
role in his picture. Poor Boob" he
was extremely pleased, for he re-
membered the charm of this we'll
known Mack Sennett comedy player,
He looked forward to seeing her
during the making OF the picture at
the Lasky studio, but he asked Di-
rector Donald Crisp II it was all a
mistake that she was going to make
her dramatic debut in Poor Boob"
mot on your life," said the direc-
tor. "There she Is over there. and
you're going to have a scene with
her as soon as we finish with this
set" Washburn looked-and saw a
fat. clumsily attired creature weigh
ing at least 200 pounds At first he
thought he was either mad or being
kidded. for he remembered her
slyphlike form.
Then he recalled the script. and he
remembered that the part she play
ed was that of his boyhood sweet
heart who had changed for the worse
during the passing of the years. So
all was we'll, and the scene went
along successfully.
'iPoor Boob" will be seen at the
Joy theatre next Friday and Satur-

THE TRIAL OF THE KAISER
Think in interest.

The suggestion was made recently
in a prominent daily that it was
hardly worth while to spend the
time and the money Of sensible peo-
pie to try the former kaiser.
This would be true, were the oo-
ject OF that trial simply to wreak
yengence upon one hated individual.
But that is not the final end and aim
Of the proposed trial. It goes far
deeper.
With the presentation of the peace
terms the real plight OF Germany is
at last brought to the comprehension
of the common people. They can
realize for the first time where the
militaristic dreams of few auto
> Gratis have brought them. They can
realize also how futile were the
promises of few other autocrats
that they would secure peace terms
favorable to Germany.
Now let this awakening experience
be followed by the arraignment OF
those royal, military and civil heads
responsible for the conduct Of the
war. This will mean that documents
OF undoubtable veracity will be sub
mitted in evidence Of German guilt.
Light will be cast on every angle
and ramification OF Germany's war
plans dating back for many years.

OBITUARY
Nathaniel Iangeil


The death of Nathaniel Langell at
the home of his daughter, Mrs. w. c.
Hale, of this city on May l5, 1919,
marked the passing OF another OF
that noble army OF pioneers whose
fast diminishing race felt its early
beginnings in the dim vistas OF more
than half century ago, and whose
life is the life OF our mighty common
wealth.
Nathaniel Langell was born In
Nova Scotia, January 6. 1891. being
at the time OF his death of the age
of IS years, months and days,
He was descended from an old
French Huguenot family which set
tied in that province early in its his
tory. In the year 1888, young Ian
CELL came to the United States to
seek his fortunes and remained on
the Atlantic seaboard until 1854
when his family heard the call OF the
far west and with them he came to
Oregon, locating at Jacksonville. in
Jackson county.
The father, Joseph Langell. and
two sons shortly after coming to
Oregon associated themselves to-
gether in the stock business and pur-
chased 1900 acres OF rich land In
what is now known as 'Iangell Val
ley" in Klamath county. although
Nathaniel Langell continued his per-
sonal residence in Jacksonville.
In the year 1853 Mr.. Langell was
married to Loretta Jane Hensley the
daughter OF an Oregon pioneer OF
1853. until her death. which
occurred in this city October 81.
1918. she being at the time visitor
at the home OF her daughter Mrs
Hale. the family at that time making
their home in Portland.
Mr. Langell's life is a long record
Of usefulness to his home town, his
county and his state and his political
service has been we'll nigh continu-
Gus since his arrival in the state. A
lifelong republican, in 1872 he rep
resented Jackson county in the leg
islature and in 1895 was again elect
ed to that Office but did not serve
owing to the failure OF that body to
organize. In 1876 he was appoint
ed deputy internal revenue collector.
serving six years. He has been a
member OF many county and state
central committees and was for
many years the president OF the city
board Of his home town Of Jackson
vile.
Mr.. Langell became a Mason in
1852 at GAINESVILLE. Ohio, and has
been prominently identified with
that order all his life. being at the
time of his death member of War
rem lodge No. 10, Of Jacksonville, OF
which he was at one time master.
Nathaniel Langell was the father
of ten children, five of whom sur
vive him: Eliza A. Hale, wife Of for
mer Judge w. C. Hale, residing in
this city; Mary l.. Moore, wife OF
former state treasurer, Charles s.
Moore, now deceased; Arthur T.
Langell, Of BLY,, Oregon; Harry N.
Langell, Of Portland, Oregon, and
Jessie c. Foster, wife of Harry E.
Foster, formerly OF this city but now
residing at Long Beach, Cal.
Such record of devoted service,
Of high thinking and OF plain, simple
living can never fail to leave a Nigh
ty impression for good upon the life
Of the community in which it is
written, not in words but in deeds.

YANKS RETURN FROM WAR

instances were found OF food specifi-
cations being violated, these are de-
clared to have been very few and in
most instances not intentional.
The emergency ration OF the Am
erican soldier, designed to be used
only in cases OF extremity, was per-
fected during the war to consist of
8 cakes Of beef, prepared with a
bread compound Of ground cooked
wheat, each cake weighing ounces;
three 1-ounce cakes Of chocolate;
three -fourths ounces fine salt and
/ gram black pepper.
Interesting statistics are given OF
economies effected by changes in de-
sign. For instance elimination OF
lacings and eyelets in trousers saved
$17 100000 and redesigning OF the
coat cut the cost OF these garments
$5,000,000. Expert cutting reduced
the consumption OF cloth 23/100 OF
a yard and saved 100000 yards or
the total order. Cotton textiles pro.
duced for the army would furnish a
strip 3 feet wide and OF sufficient
length to wrap IS layers around the
equator.
Noting that tobacco has estab
lished its claim to recognized place
in the soldiers life," the report says
probably 95 per cent Of the Ameri
can expeditionary force used thu
weed in one form or another. Month
ly shipments averaged 10000, ,OOt
