All sections of Oregon are represented at the meeting and an impressive array of military titles graces the hotel registers. Roseburg is particularly Honored today by the presence of three gen eral officers, all of whom gave genuine assistance to us in our ef fort to secure the BoldiorB homo. Those officers aro General Charles H. Martin, congresBinan-oloct from the ; Portland district; General Georgo A. White, commander -of national guard units for five north western states, and General Thom as F. Hllea, head of tho Infantry units! of tho, Oregon National Guard. Gcnoral Martin gave assistance to Hoseburg of lnestlmublo vulue by writing porsonul letters in our behalf to Influential people In Washington, D. C. He dosdVves our sincere thanks. General White and General Itilea have-boon vory helpful and on the occasion of tho visit of General Wood, site inspecting officer, to Rosoimrg, both of theao officers made the trip down hole to assls: In our reception for General Wood. Any thuught or notion thul the , Reserve officers organization Is a warlike or war-wautlng group Is wrong. The motto of the organiza tion Is: ' "Patriotic Preparedness Proservcs Peace." The reserve of ficers are patriotic men who are keeping themselves fit and ready to take command according to ' their rank in the event of a na tional emergency. No rational hu man being wnuts a war and least of all do these officers Want to see another war. Thoy huvo noud rea- ' son for haling war lor thoy know all about It from experience. They havo been designated as In tellectuals but they Jungle and bite and scrutch Just like a couple or negro washerwomen. We refer to tho face-slapping enjoyed day bo fore yestorday by Sinclair Lewis and Theodore Ilrolser. Somehow the pages of Sinclair Lewis' novels loso their brllllunco and the chap ters of Dreiser's book on Itiissla loso authority as wo rend tho news of tho sput. Speaking of Dreiser's book, tho battle took place because Mr. Lewis said that Mr. Dreiser had stolen somo of the material In a book written by Mrs. Lewis.

These hulbs were planted the first of last October, seven tons being used for the acre. Three varieties were used, the King Al fred, Golden Spur and Trumpet Minor. All tne liloom is large and richly colored, although perhaps tne King Allied Is the most de sirable, . Previous to the planting of these bulbs the land had been In pas ture for Bevon yearB. The sod was turned tinder late last summer, disced and put in order, and a splendid crop secured. The plants are lusty, long stemmed and the flowers are huge.

Asso ciation;" und further that this commission was planning a barnstorming campaign Into all towns of Douglas County, teaching the vulue of this road and had requested the post to furnish the enterlalumcnt on those, trips. At this meet lug the post received (ho thanks of the lloy Scout Council meeting for a donation of $2(10 which lmd been contributed for the Hcout Camp. Members of Unipquu 1'oJt Drum Corps and wives were Invited as guests of the Umpqua Chiefs at a banquet on January 19, 192S. All cx-servlco men and women of fliu World War were invited to at tend an open meeting on January H,'VJ2X, when all were apprized of the benefits to which they woro entitled as a result of state and na tional legislation. This meeting was hd In the Knights of Pythias Hall in Honuburg, anil wus attended by Beyqi'al hundred persons. Department Commander Ooorgo Love was presenli with a lurge delgution ot other Department and District officers. - k On Kebruary 3, 192S, the executive' committee of the post authorized the adjutant to borrow fivo hundred dollars or more if necessary with which to purchase options on land for an aviation field. "This actiot. shows that tho American Legion hero left nothing undone In its fight for u modern airport. At the regular post meeting held on February 7, 1928, the airport committee made its complete report, iu which it was slated that approximately 1 10 acres of land had been placed under option, and that tills land had been endorsed by the I'. S. Army, tho C. S. .Department of Commerce ami by many private aviators. Tho commltteo was then authorized to present the options and all details to tho Hoseburg City Council with a request thai a Bpeclal election bo called at an early date to vote on a proposed bond Issue of $25,000 to pure!, so und improve this land for an airport.

Dut members of Umpqua Post felt that the rapid thinning ranks of these old veterans mentis that this will perhaps be the last great convention these bodies will ever hold.

The elderly officer with the bald head and drawn, leathery Bkin brougnt her lo them, bowed deeply, took three backward steps, bowing at each ono of them, and turned away to join a group of his fel lows. 'We have been looking for you, my beloved U-izele,' Canotta effus ed sweetly. '1 really think mon sieur was ver' lonesome, or per haps 11 was he was jealous of the Hcldmarachal-Llculenunt liarou Obf rhelden8chwll.' 'The Baron is a charming dodo,' replied .V.!vs!er,., !.n.. :.'!-.;, 'even if he does amuse you so much, Carlotta. 1 had only to hint at it and he has arranged that we shall attend a most wonderful func tion, one to which only the most fortunate will be received by Count von Kulm.' She turned to Farn ham. 'And you are to come with us, monsieur,' she exclaim it. 'The night of Monday, at nine j are to arrive.' 'Hut my journey, mademoiselle?' Farnham gasped. 'I have put it off 'it can wait again, monsieur,' she told him. 'The affair of Monday, it is in honor of His Highness Ab bas Hilmi, and we shall be honor ed by meeting, too, the. Grand Duke Michael, who holds Iiussia in the palm of his bund.' Farnham debated his uncertainty very briefly aud yielded. 'Of course,' he said in a thin, un comfortable voice. . 'Nothing could bo so important as that. But, 1 really shouldn't.' 'We. must be taking our leave now,' mademoiselle decided. 'The guests have been slipping away for some time and It will shortly be daylight.' Farnham consulted his watch. It was alter three o'clock. Some of the uniformed legation attaches were leaving with their ladies. Others continued to drink and chat in small groups. Farnlium wonder ed at the steadiness of their legs, the restraint of their voices after the night's heavy drinking. Four or five bottles of champagne must have been the portion of more than one. Aien handled their liquor well in Switzerland, ho thought. Perhaps it was the part of discre tion, whore ready ears might be straining for a single careless word or phrase. Farnham remembered a certain dinner in Washington, months be fore. A brilliant dinner at a grand mansion, wnere the Bocret motif was that the hostess put a single phrase Into the president's ear iu the course of the evening. A phrase IKiit required no nnswer, no comment. Ton thousand dol lars in wine, flowers, and music to plant a thought, to drop a sin gle seed In tho hope that It would lake root in tho executive's braiu. And a careless word, a glass loo much of Count Botha von Kulm's champagne, might have dire con sequences in the game of world diplomacy now centered in Swit zerland. When Senora Quarazza's motor boat dropped him at the Qual du Mont Blanc, Farnham said his adleux, went at once to his apart mulls, aud sat down with his eyes on the first turquoise glow over tho distant Alps. Hut his mind was back in the chateau of Count von Kulm, recounting Ihe night's daz zling events. Count von Kulm now puzzled him sorely. Presently; as the sun crept in at the window, Farnham rose with a shake of his head and prepared to disrobe. From his pocket he took the roll of notes senora had won for him und counted them slowly. 'TweWs thousand francs!' he exclaimed lo himself. Neai-ry three thousand dollars at the current exchange rate. Ho had not realized that his bet had ac cumulated io such proportions. '.Money appears to ho no object in Geneva.' ho ruminated, view ing the hank notes with a whimsi cal smile. The Royal Hand The intervening throe days tin III .Monday night, Farnham spent In the rambling indolence of a man who has neither mission nor purpose, except to kill time. He used up Saturday In wandering about the environs of the city, looking, with tlte simple curiosity of a provincial, at the ancient land marks, such as Die Cathedral of Saint Pierre, with Its Gothic spires that were older than the ship that took Columbus to America, and boasting stalls that were done by the Florentine sculptors. Several hours he spent at the Ecnle d'Hor logorie, in the shadow of Notre Dame, studying the museum of timepieces that traced the modern wntch from the earliest method of keeping time to the latest crea tion In Swiss watch ingenuity a logical Interest, in view of his mission in Switzerland. On Satur day evening he went, not tn the Kursaal where men of many climes foregather under the bright lights, but to the amusing Theater Apol lo. From time to time Farnham glimpsed the shadows who dogged his footsteps. To these he gave small attention. One of them, whom he had observed several limes during the day, had a seal immediately behind him at the Wool Sacks 45c EACH Roseburg Poultry Co. Phone 279 SPV NET ARED WHITE Apollo, and dined near him after the performance at the kiosk of the English gardens. He smiled at these precautions his every movement being kept under ob servation. Doubtless, he thought, the detailed narrative of his move ments would he studied anon by some one qualified to decide just what meaning his movements had during these three days of niaik ing time in Geneva. i Sunday he spent on the lake and rivers, along the quays, stroll ing the promenades ot the lake front, crossing and recrossing the bridges of tile Rhone, asking an occasional direction of a gen darme, but avoiding contacts. Mon day hiaa movements were equally provincial;' iiie 'iiic-1 uiug 'roviug uy rycle-cab, the afternoon in the Hotel de Ville with its historic frescoes and statues, and at the Musee with Its treasures of anti quity; prehistoric remains, price less relics in bronze and pottery from the days of Phoenicia and Cy prus, paintings representative of the greatest Swiss artists of all times, military uniforms and Im pedimenta that depleted graphi cally the. rising grandeur of war from the dark ages, when men slaughtered their fellows with a blade on the end of a pike, on down to the present enlightened period of hurling death a dozen miles. Farnham ended ills three days of Innocent exploration in time to dress for an early dinner at the Beau Rivage and a stroll to the postoffice at rue Mont Blanc where he sent a brief telegram to an ad dress In Paris, stating simply that he had been unavoidably delayed in leaving Geneva. Senora Quarazza's motor boat arrived at the quay In front of the hotel exactly at nine, the same moment that Farnham reached the lake front ready to embark. Car lotta was bubbling over with ani mation. She greeted hlrr. with out stretched arms, kissed him lightly on both cheeks, and drew him down beside her in the cabin. 'If I am so happy,' she exclaim ed, Tt Is because I have ver' won derful news! Can you guess?' Farnham shook his head, then brightened. 'Ah, yes, I have It,' he ventured. 'You have news that Senor Don Ricardo is returning home.' 'Por Dins!' she flared. 'It Is that Don Ricardo will not return for one, two, perhaps three months.' He offered no comment and look ed across at Mademoiselle Le Riv et, who seemed even more thought ful and somber than on their first trip to the chateau of von Kulm. 'I have felt very guilty the past three days, neglecting my affairs so shamelessly,' he said, address ing them both. 'But now that the hour is hero, I can only feel grate ful for your kindness In asking me.' 'We have only done our duty by a mos; amiable gentleman alone In a strange land,' responded Mad emoiselle Le Rivet, a vaguely whimsical note in her voice. But Carlotta was not to be di verted by Farnham's attempt to lead the conversation into safer grounds. She moved close to him and entwined her arm In his. 'You are not pleased,' she press ed him, 'that the Benor will not return for so long a time, yes?' 'It-woiild hardly be the thing would it,' he avoided her, 'for me to gloat over the scnor's ill-fur tune?' 'Monsieur Is a ver' stupid or a ver' clever man,' Carlotta pouted. 'I've often been accused of the former,' laughed Farnham. 'Sel dom of the latter.' The chateau of Count von Kulm was mor resplendent than on the preceding Friday. There were few er in civilian dress, a greater num ber of gorgeous uniforms, an or chestra of perhaps a hundred In struments, more servants and major-domos than bofore. The guests were placed formally in the great reception hall, according to sta Hon; and Abbas and tho Grand Duke were announced from the great stairway.

Oak The ruffles and flourishes of royalty were sounded by trumpet ers and drummers in the dress of the Russian Household Guards. Farnham wondered that Abbas Hilmi claimed precedence over the Russian Grand Duke. The Khedive was out of the picture, so far as the Egyptian throne was concern ed. The English had seen to that in a most decisive manner, the Grand Duke, on the other hand, had taken over the chaotlo affairs ot Russia as regent upon the over throw of the Czar, Farnham re membered, and might again come Into great power. What mission, then, brought liim to Switzerland at this critical hour? What social law gave an ex-khedive precedence over the possible ruler of all the Russlas? The Grand Duke and Abbas Hilmi both appeared in military uniform, the Khedive's topped by a Bcarlet fez. They bowed with an impressive reserve to von Kulm's guests, who responded with the knee-bending obsequiosness due royalty while these two haughty mortals made their -way to the grand banquet hall. A liveried wait er for each guest tonight. Rhine wines, . Burgundies, champagne, and liqueurs; and frequent toasts to the health of the royal guesls, toasts delivered in Esperanto, the International langungo cradled nt Geneva, of which Farnham under stood no word. Carlotta had taken complete pos session of him again, and, since she was brazenly Intent on break ing down Farnliam's reserve to night, he was kept at his wits' end, parrying her advances with out making himself offensive to her. 'Monsieur, you are the first man that ever dare treat Carlotta llks she Is the rug of the Turk undei your feet!' she exclaimed hotly, as they sat on the moonlit terrace outside after dinner. 'Is it that I am so ver' distasteful to you, mon sieur?' 'The very opposite, senora,' lie said politely. 'But I must not let myself forget that you have drunk much champagne and are not quite yourself.' 'So, I am the Infant in arms, you think, monsieur, yes? Well, t will tell you. then. The wine It have not affect me; It Is my heart that havo spoken to you. But I will not throw myself at your feet, mon sieur!' She covered her face with her hands and sat in silence for a full minute, then got up abruptly. Farnham arose quickly and faced indoors in mule indication that he was ready to go In. Senora Quarazza gave an excla mation ot Bharp disgust. 'Pardon, monsieur she said in a caustic drawl. '1 will find fof you Mademoiselle Le Rivet.'
