Thus Captain Lee Clark, in charge of the recruiting in Eastern Oregon with headquarters here, summarize the slow additions to the Oregonian troops. Last week's business was closed bv Bending Lester E. Worrell, ' of Caldwell, to Clackamas as a soldier, enlistment having been completed here Saturday. Worrell was 22, and will, like other men sent down from La Grande, be outfitted at Clackamas and then sent on to the border. "Our sister state, Washington" said Mr. Clark today in speaking of en listments, or rather lack of them, "sent a war regiment to the border but Oregon is behind. Usually this state does about alright in any prop osition, but in this instance she is be hind. Eastern Oregon especially is slow in enlisting. Western and Southern Oregon contributed an overwhelming majority of the men actually in service and extremely few have come from Mstern Oregon. "The demand for troops is no whim the war department needs more men, and it behooves Oregon East ern Oregon particularly to recall that fact and stimulate enlistments among her younger men. "If men weren't seriously needed we wouldn't b e out seeking them and for that reason this state owes itself and the nation greater attention to en lisements right away." E IS J.

From cromped and inadequate quarters into a combination five-room home on the second floor, with light, roomy grocery apartments, and with ample cellar room was the step ne gotiated today by Mrs. Joel, grocery woman, Cedar and Washington. The firm today occupies its new store. A two-story structure, 26 x 42, is di vided into living rooms on the second floor, rest and storage rooms in the rear of the ground floor and a well lighted store room of 20 x 29 facing on Cedar. The whole Cedar street end of the store is glass, has ample counter und shelving room with spacious floor space between the counters. White paint and plenty of light makes the store as up-to-date and sanitary as it well could be. Mrs. Joel and her daughter, Vera, began the grocery business a couple of years ago or more in decidedly cramped quarters and as their busi ness grew they realized the crying need of more room and planned a structure that would adequately pro vide a home and a store at the same time. The structure has just been completed, painted and made ready for the store wKfcli was moved in Suturday night and this morning. .Largely show winds and display room were prov'ded for, and thus, far out in the residence section lies a real live modern grocery store.

It was learned later that "Sully" had been fishing yesterday and away up on Catherine creek he had caught some fish. In cleaning those hsh Sul ly had gathered in two small hard pebbles which he thinks are pearls. Probably they will come out in the polish but until that time he insists they are pearls.
