SPAIN MAY NOT
 SEND OLYMPIC TEAM

Madrid, June 1O-Doubt whether Spain will send a team to the com ing Olympic games at Antwerp is ex- pressed by the newspaper A B c. It declares the Spanish government is the only government which has not subscribed toward the cost of it's teams training expenses.

 If the Republican party prefers to mark tme to make evasve plank, it will be well if Johnson might make nde pendent candidacy In this all who desired to do would have opportunity to vote against the League which would be instructive to them and to the country.
 The Republican party very split not because of Hiram Johnson but because of separation in ideas.

MILFORD NEWS

The telephone outfit at the Arctic engine company house has been so equipped that the siren recently set up at the Woodmont fire house can be started up from the fire headquar- ters at the center. Under this ar rangement calls from the Woodm ont section are rassed to the Arctic en- zine company board and the alarm is given by the siren without loss of time and also such information passed to the firemen at Woodmont as may be necessary. This arrange ment has the advantage of keeping Chief Stowe informed as to the rela- tive importance of WoodInont con- fagrations so that he can come to the rescue with the proper apparatus in case called upon.
 Some criticism has arisen due to the fact that central is no longer able to give out information regard ing fires. Reports of fires are switched over a direct wire to headquarters, there throwing in red light and call. ing the person on guard to the phone. Calls upon the man at the engine house should only be made by those especially interested, as he does not have time to give out word to the gen. eral public.
 Incidentally the terms of Commits sioners Clark and O'Hara expire on June 30, and beyond a doubt they will be drafted in for further service.

TRIBUTE PAID
TO SOLDIER
LAST RITES FOR EARL ROBERTSON
Body Returned From France and Funeral
Held Sunday Afternoon Under
American Legion Auspices

/ Although nearly two years have
elapsed since the armistice was signed,
the great war was brought close to the
hearts of Hood River folk Sunday
when they assembled at Riverside
church to pay their last respects to
Earl M. Robertson, who died in France
June, 1918. Full military rites were
paid their eomrade by members of the
Hood River Post, American Legion.
Following funeral services the body,
with an escort of uniformed Legion
members, was borne on a motor truck
to the Pine Grove cemetery, where il
will rest in the "Valley of Peace, " as
visitors here during apple harvest DAYS
have termed Hood River The Knights
of Pythias band preceded the funeral
cortege, playing funeral march.
The big church was filled with city
and valley folk. Rev Boldly delivered
the funeral Grafton. Other valley and
city ministers occupied the pulpit
Scriptural passage was read by Dr.
HAYDEN Rev, Kaye offered prater and
the benedlction was pronounced by
Rev. Sykes.
Mr.. Robertson, a native of the val-
ley, was a son of Robert Robertson,
Pine Grove rancher. He was called to
the cOors with 18th Co Coast Artil-
lery, in July 1917 He was fatally
stricken while serving in France with
the 65th Artillery. The service Sunday
was the only military funeral ever held
here. Only three other Hood River men
fell in France. Marshall Pineo and
Guy Eastman were killed in action.
The former was serving with the Can
adian army. Flood Grams was killed
accidentally.
Young Robertson is the nephew of
Mark V. Robertson, a hero of the
Spanish American war and also of the
great war. He has won two congress
sional records. One for heroism in res
cung comrades from a native attack
in the Philippines. and the second for |
valor in rescue work in France. The |
young hero buried Sunday is survived |
by his father, Rabert Robertson, and
brother, Harold Robertson. His mother |
and two sisters met tragic death in |
1911 when their East Side ranch home
burned.
The following Legion men were
pail bearers: Leon Bentley, Earl DON |
bar. f. A. Thomson, Arthur Hansen, |
A. G. Lewis, Jr., and Thorkild Hansen. |
The firing squad consisted of A. Won |
i1acht, Walter Ford, Hayes l.. Bick-
ford, Hugh Copple, w. j A. Baker. |
Leon Foust. Gus Forsberg and Albert |
Gibbons.

THREE -F0URTHS OF
APPLES ARE PICKED

A record tonnage of apples for the
season, it is believed by growers, was
picked Tuesday. Indeed, it is likely
that never in the history Of the valley
was the harvest rushed 50 fast The
day was the first entirely without
clouds since October J. Many owners
Of smaller orchards and some with
larger acreage have completed their
picking. Growers owning large places
in numerous instances, however, still
have a large portion Of their cron on
the tres Despite the fact that orch
ardsts with frnit all under cover are
releasing some of their harvest help,
sorters, pickers and packers are still
badly needed in some localities. A
representative of Dee Flat growers
left Tuesday for Portland to secure 40
harvest hands.
According to records of the Expert
ment Station, the September Of 1920
has been the wettest since 1911, when
the precipitation reached 3.65 The
rain for last September was 3.42 inch
es. The precipitation FOR October is
expected to set new record The
greatest Occtober prec pitation for the
past ten years occurred la 1918 when
the rainfall for the month reached 3 40.
