land boasted of one OF the most en-
ergetic and progressive women's
clubs, the Civic improvement Club,
which was one OF the leading factors
in promoting the city's welfare and
When the dark days
of the war came on this club gave up
its local activities and devoted Its
entire resources to promoting affairs
to help the Red Cross and other war
reliefs, conducting for many months
n very successful salvage department
for the Red Cross, in which a very
material sum of money was made
and turned over to the local Red
Gross branch. Since that industry
was closed, and the war ceased, the
members of the Civic Improvement
Club have been trying to regain their
normal regime in their homes ana
other interests, so that the club ac-
tivltles have waned during the past
two years. An effort is being made
at present, however. among the lead
ing members OF the c. l. c. to
again put this club on the map OF
Ashland's social and industrial ac-
tiyities, and for this purpose lun'
cheon will be held at the Hotel Aus

ASHLAND BOY WRITES
OF SOUTH AMERICA

Hubert Prescott. son OF Mr.. and
Mrs. w. G. Prescott, writes most In
terestingly of trip which he Is now
taking in South America. He is TAX
Ing this trip to study bird and ami
NAL life and the peoples.
Last summer Hubert gathered spe-
clmens Of birds and small manuals
for the zoology department OF the
University OF Oregon, from the sec
tions around Mount Ashland and
Mount Mclaughlin.
In September he took passage as q
sailor on board ihotorship from
Portland, which was taking load
of lumber to South America. He
worked for a few weeks in Chilli in
the Guggenheimer mining plant,
where he states that wages for an
American are from $3.50 up per day,
for the Englishman $3.50 up. and the
native gets from $1.O0 to $3.50 per
day. Living is expensive, however,
as even drinking water has to be
paid for by the glass.
At AntafOgosta, Chill, he went by
rail to Peru and Bolivia. And his
last letter written on December 10th,
was from Cochabamba, Bolivia, from
where he expected to leave by mule
for Santa. Rosa, at which place he
would take a boat and go down the
Amazon.
Hubert's letters bulge with inter-
esting experiences, and his detailed
observations of the natives. the to-
biography OF the country, the bird
and animal life bespeak his fitness
for the work he has chosen to major
in. In Bolivia the pears are the size
of our largest Bing cherries; the
cherries about the size of two choke
cherries. The natives raise corn
and grind it in a primitive way ana
then make 1t into cake which they
put into the mouth until it becomes
pasty with saliva, when it is placed
on boards in the sun and after it is
dried, sold in the open market. HUI
bert is sending a sample OF this pop
ular corn cake with the mark of a
tooth to his parents. and II Is safe
guess that the sample will be on ex-
hibition for an indefinite time. He
wrote that the jaguar hides sold In
the market were the most beautiful
he had ever seen and IL his finances
permitted, he would send one to his
mother.
Having decided to major in BIZ
ology, Hubert felt that year In trav-
ell would be more profitable in the
end than to continue at the Univer.
sity. He was offered a position
where he might have studied the fish
on the west coast, but he decided
the South American trip was prefer
able and so started out with the de-
termination to make expenses as he
went, and he is doing this. OF course
he has the comfortable feeling that
there is a Dad" in the United States
who could be gotten by wire on emer-
gency. On his return no will re-
enter the university.
