duty of an American citizenship.
Manager Frasier wants more help
at the tomato cannery in the way of
female peelers. There is place for
score of operators. Raw material is
coming in and it requires nimble
hands to handle the goods. Women
and girls can do this work and earn
good wages. Apply at once for posi-
ton and by helping yourself you will
be helping an important industry.
There has been a punch in the air
| this week indicative of the approach
of winter. although that season is not
J due to arrive and start business full
force for three months. The alarming
feature of severe change at this time
is the danger of frost, and frost just
now, with tomato harvest in full
swing and the cannery going at full
blast, would really be a calamity.

ing letter received today from a

possibilities for usefulness, already

gassing in action is still classified
as unfit, and a fourth risked his
precious young life in the air.
When an honest and concerted
effort is being made by the nations
of the earth to save, if possible, fu-
ture mothers and sons from these
sacrifices it is hard to realize there
are those who oppose such an ef-
fort. 1 feel sure that among those
who paid for the war there can be
but one opinion and that is to try
the league of nations, even il it is

been proposed, and, all objections
being weighed, is manifestly the
most feasible. Please God 1t win

H,8OO,OOO Will Be
Spent in Building
Mexican Theater

7 Mexico City, Mexico, Oct. 25.-
The great unfinished marble pile,
standing in the center of the city
like the ghost of the Diaz regime,
called the National theater is to
be finished, according to plans OF
the government, which has $780,
900 for the work.
The building has stood unused Tor
ten years. 1t is said that one end
has sunk four feet below the origi-
mai level.
A number of engineers and con-
tracing firms are trying to get the
work of finishing the building.
They apparently think that s1,Soo'-
O08 will not be enough to finish the
structure, as they want to 40 the
work on a percentage basis
Efforts are also being made by
contractors to get the contract for
the completion of the Hall of Con-
gress. The bare, steel skeleton of
the structure has lowered in the air
since the days of President Diaz,
the revolutions having put a stop
to public works.

grief into which his death has
plunged South Ireland. Although
the people appear stirred to the
highest degree Of bitterness, it is
regarded as txeremely improbable
that there will be any outbreaks or
disorderly demonstration here.
1t is expected, however, there
will be a considerable extension
and intensification of guerrilla
warfare against the police and mill
tary forces, which, anticipating re-
prisals, are doubling their vigil
lance, especially in remote districts.
Cork jail. where number of
hunger strikers are in grave con-
ditien is guarded inside and out by
soldiers with machine guns and the
large garrison also has tanks and

The news of Lord Mayor Mac
Swiney's death, received in private
kilograms to his friends, Travelled
quickly throughout the city. A
meeting of the city council to dis
cuss the situation arising from the
lord mayors death was called for
today.
The deputy lord mayor announ-
ced that he and several other mu-
nicipal officers would proceed to

Is Looted Of
Goods, Sunday

Thieves broke into a pool hall
at Sublimity, Sunday night and
carried away a small quantity of
canned goods, according to a re-
port received Monday morning by
Sheriff w. I. Needham.
Constable Otter, who made the
report from Sublimity, stated that
the same parties had apparently
made efforts to remove the license
tags from a truck standing near
the looted hall. Canned peas and
sardines formed the bulk of the
stolen goods.
This is the first petty burglary
reported from Willamette points
for several months. During the
winter months of 1919-1920. an ep-
idemic of store robberies was re-
ported from many of the smaller
towns of Marion and Polk counties.

cepted a Multnomah pass either
just in front of the goal line or JUS

1he play occurred on fourth
down after Multnomah had gained
the ball by blocking Irvine's punt,
and had failed to gain by line
plunges.
In spite of the question as to
whether the play was a safety or

to 0. according to the referees de-
cision. No protest can be made as
tne same was not Il conference

contends that the play should have
been called touchback.

ter the Bearcats opened up and
used passing game effectively.
