The funeral sermon delivered by Rev Warrington, who was formerly overseas with the Y. M. C. A., was a masterpiece. Its every word car ried an impressive lesson to the lis teners and it not only nerved as a fit, ting tribute to the memory of one who died that we might live, but It also was comforting inasmuch as It reviewed the wonderful aacriflceJ made by the young man. The theme of tho sermon centered about one's life work. It was emphasized that It would lie better for one only to live mouth and dedicate to Ihe world the accomplishnienta of this young man than to live a hundred years and not be able to make the sacrifice for our countrymen.

RAIN IS A DRAWBACK ShoHora Keep lMckera From Gather ing Crop as liApidly a. Uealred, Hut Good Prog-es Being Made In Nplto ot Handicap. In spite of the rainy and disagree able weather excellent nrogreaa Is being made with the apple crop. The picking is being hlndored by the rain the pickers cannot work during showers. Between spells, however, the pickers are kept I'Usy and the crop ia being removed from the trees In good time taking into considera tion the handicap under which the growera are laboring. Estlmatea are only alightly be low those of last year, on tho amount of produce. Now orchards lust coming into hearing have added great deal to the volume of tho apple crop while old orchards are all producing a normal crop. The Oregon Growers Association will ship out about 125 carloadB of ipples from the county according to the present estimates. Ten carloads have already been sent out and 10 mora will be shipped from Roseburg during the present week. Three cars were londed at the local plant today one Is being prepared for shipment it Sutherlln and one Is practically completed at Riddle. The variety of apples now being handled is Spltzenbergs and practi cally the entire carloads to be ship ped this week will be of that variety. The crest ot the Spltzenberg run 111 he reached this week and the Newtons will begin to come In next week. The Splzenbergs this year are sxcollent In quality. Had It not been Tor the dry spell In the summer the luallty would have been much Det er than anv produced In the north west and would have set altogether new standard. The dry spell how ever, slightly reduced tho size of the fruit, although the apples .are still very large and are of excellent shape tnd color. The windstorm which caused a Treat many apples to fall trom the trees was responsible for some loss, hut as a result the apples remaining were niado larger, and consequently tho monteary returns will not be In any way lessened. At Garden Valley, a large crew of nickers are being employed and hundreds of boxes are being brought Into Roseburg dally. The packing of "he apples at Garden valley greatly relieves the congestion and hastens 'he work of shipping the fruit. Prac tically all of Ihe produce of the val 'ev is being shipped through tho local Oregon Growera plant and Is helna loaded Into cars almost rapidly as it Is brought In trom thai in-hards. A number of cars will be shipped! 'hrniiKh Independent packers snd nrospects are that the shipment thlnj vear will be almost equal to that ofl 'ast season. Tho establishment or in Oreaon Growers plant at Riddle an' it Sutherlln, provides sufficient1 room for the handling of the crop, ind the congestion experienced last vear Is not expected thla season.

Should Pay Tribute When the snnouncement Is made that the funeral services of a veteran of the World War are to be held, the legionnaires are of the opinion that everyone should display the American flag on the day of the services, and when the flag Is flown from a pole it should be half-masted. The flag flying over the I'mpqua Hotel yesterday was placed at half mast in honor of the services over the body of Private Roy Smith. The American Legion men were aroused yesterday during the funeral proces sion when a number of "sidewalk Ilrards" were seen wearing their lists snd leaning against telephone as the flag draped casket passed by.
