SAW COLONIES AS A NATION
According to old Almanac, English
NobIeman Was Gifted With Re
markabIe Prophetic Spirit.

Quantity phrased weather warnings,
of wisdom, including a prediction of
a successful revolt in America, while
the colonlsts were still praying for the
health of their English ruler, are con
tanned in a collection of almanacs
owned in Keene, n. ii. Some of the
paper-bound booklets date back to
1854
The prophecy dealing with the Rev
olution was printed in a copy issued
about the time that Washington was
following the peaceful pursuits Of a
surveyor. 1t was made by Lord
Kames, British nobleman, who said i:
"Our North American colonies are
in a prosperous condition, increasing
rapidly in population, in commerce
and in opulence and they have the
spirit of a free people and are en-
famed with patriotism. Their pOpu-
lation will equal that of Britain and
Ireland in less than a century and
they will be a match for the mother
country If they choose to be independ-
ent. A people animated with the new
blessings Of liberty will not incline to
a kingly form of government"
Young men are urged to go West
into the wilds of Ohio and purchase
land at 20 cents an acre in Spanish
money, by an almanac editor who
wore knee breeches and rufiled shirt.
In his mortuary statistics, based on re-
ports received in 1897, he asserted
that half Of the United States died
before reaching the age of seventeen
years, smallpox, for instance, being
more fatal to girls than boys at that
period. However, one in every 1925
Of the population attained or passed
the century mark in life.

OF THE PRESIDENT

declares that the movement has his
unqualified approval.
"The construction of good roads is a
recognized need for all of our land, :"
says Mr.. Bell. 1.-THE work will afford
remunerative employment for millions.
Every community should lay out as
much road work as is possible. The
national congress should cooperate with
the President in the movement. Here
in Hood River we should lose not a
single moment of time in beginning
construction of our Loop Highway"
