FRIDAY, THE 18TH,
HAS NO TERR0RS

Friday. the Thirteenth, had no ter
rors for A. ID. Moe. who with Mrs. Moe
left Friday by automobile for tour oi
California and the southwest. With
snowstorm impending, Mr.. Moe. fear
ing an interruption of ferry service be-
tween here and Stevenson, took sthe
down river ferry before the storm
might break. Seven other cars board
ed the ferry here Friday.
Thirteen is my lucky number he
said. II was Just elected for the thir-
teenth time to the First National Bank
board of directors.
The following letter, written at Cor
Wallis, was received from Mr.. Moe
Monday:
!, ''We have started south and arrived
here this evening without mlshap. The
trip from Hood River to Vancouver,
or as far as the west side of the Cape
Horn hill, is hard one. Snow extends
80 miles west of Stevenson and 10
miles of it is as bad as any road | ever
Travelled over for bumps. The snow Is
deep enough so the bottom of the car
scrapes IL while the wheels travel IN
deep ruts full of chuck holes. We
scraped off the mufiler, but picked It
up and had it put back on at Vancou-
yer. We got to Vancouver in time to
take in the o. A. c. Glee club concert
and surprised Mark. 1t was very good.
We also saw Mark in Portland this
morning.
Left Portland at IL q. m, had din
ner in Oregon City and arrived here at
6 D. m. Am travelling slow and will
not attempt to make time. Will prob
ably make about $50 miles day until
we get over the Siskiyous.
Frances is with us this evening. The
weather is clear and frosty, but very
good for riding. We have not got cold
at all riding, and have not put on the
curtains in front. 1t is much better
this way than if it were warmer q nd
raining. Hope it stays clear for few
days. We should be in Ashland by
Monday night.

AMERICAN LEGION NOTES

We are going ahead with plans
for the Fourth of July program; it
is needless to say that the support
for this affair iS coming from the
public spirited business men OF Win
slow We are fortunate, indeed, that
there will be an opportunity for all
the folks to stay at home this time
We know that everyone will support
the undertaking and help the Amer
lean Legion to make the affair
great success. The tentative pro-
gram will please everyone: we are
sure that there will be nothing miss
ing to interest young and old alike
and to say the least the kiddies will
get the real treat, the glorious dis
play of fireworks under the direc-
ton of the members of the Legion
So remember that you are not to
leave Winslow the Fourth. In fact
we are going to bring people in here
from all parts off the state.
Too much praise and thanks can
not be given our Auxiliary: the lad
les surely gave the Legion a wond-
erful entertainment last Monday
night under the directions of Mrs.
John Grafton, plenty to eat and
drink. We will remember you, lad.
les, please come again
Some of the Legionnairs at our
last meeting again mentioned the
fact that Memorial Day will be here
shortly and that we should remind
the public that at the School Audi
torium May 3Oth, at $3.50 D. m. we
will have very suitable program
to remember our departed comrades
There will be music and an address
by Hon. Sidney Sapp Of Holbrook.
We request that the public will
please bring back the memories of
the war and remember how thew

ment is dealt with in the governors
letter to the congress which fol-
lows:
MY attention has been called to
the movement initiated by you to
bring about a general observance
throughout Arizona of the week of
May 22nd to 9th as Trade at Home
Buy Arizona Products Week"
1T is perhaps quite unnecessary
for me to state that this movement
has my hearty endorsement but I
want to take this opportunity to ex-
press to you my sincere hope that
your effort in this direction will be
crowned with the full measure of
success which it so richly deserves.
We have in Arizona great variety
of products, many of which have not
received the recognition to which
they are entitled and which thew
must be accorded if Arizona is to
attain that prosperity which is
bound to follow the utilization of
her marvellous resources
IF through the general observ-
ance of this week, there comes about
wider appreciation of the multi
plicity of our products and their ex-
cellent standard, / feel confident
that the people of Arizona will by
unanimous vote, continue the OBJ
servance throughout the remainder
of the year. Thereby our industries
will be given new impetus, our mon
ey will remain at home where it is
needed in the development of our
resources and we shall all exper-
lence more of that measure Of pros
perity which is the ultimate goal Of
our endeavors.''

While the primary object of the
week is to show the people they

of using Arizona products also will
be stressed. This angle of the move
