CARD OF THANKS.
Wo wish to thank tho many friends
for their kindness and sympathy dur
ing the illness and death of our be-
full crew laws that force the rail
roads to employ more men then ef
ficiency demands. These laws should
be ropealed. Such action would save
the roads money without hurting the
service and release hundreds of able
bodied men for the French front.- -"In
the second place the Interstate
Commerce Commission employs a
largo force of inspectors, all expert

Ropresontative of the old reliable ed in large measure by inspectors of

KAPELLAS CHASES BEAR,
BEAR CHASES
HIM
When Jimmy Kapellas awoke the
other morning from a peaceful drenm
and saw n bear sitting on the foot
of his bed licking his chops he wond
ered if he were awake or only dream
ing. He jumped out of bed and the
bear jumped, too. Jimmy rnn around
the room nrid the bear did too. The
Dr. R. E. L. Holt, left last night
(United Press) The tallest man in fr Portland. His family have al-
tlhe United States army is Lawrence ready moved to Portland.
E. Rushing, of the Yakima valley, say
his friends.
At' least, his comrades maintain, if
Ruching does not tower over every
other soldier, none are higher. Rush
ing stands 6 feet and 7 inches, and
Uncle Sam will not accept any man
taller than that.
Rushing's arrival here caused con-
siderablc worry to the quartermas-1
ter's office. A cot had to be rebuilt
so that Rushing's feet could be cared
for. An ordinary army blanket was
too small to envelope Rushing's giant
frame, and a blnnketand a half, sewed
together, was issued"to him. A spe
cial pair of shoes, No. 15-E, were or
dered from the east.
But today Rushing is comfortably
cared for, and he is rapidly lenrning
the duties of a soldier. "The boys
have to look up to me," he said today,
and judging from Rushing's willing
ness and purpose this remark may be
more than a jest.
Press) The whole scheme for the
draft lottery was thrown into chaos
late this afternoon by the discovery
New Jersey hadn't followed instruc
tions for reporting registration num
bers. The draft will be held tomorrow
morning at 9:30 as announced but will
require hours to complete. Ten thou
sand five hundred numbers must be
drawn instead of one thousand and
