Here's the most wonderful little machine ever invented for farm
ere. It combines two things a rescuing device for your automobile
and a machine that will do hundreds of lifting and pulling jobs on the
farm, easily and quickly. It saves a world of back ache and is worth
its weight in gold.
Pull-U-Out fits into the tool box of your auto, yet is so powerful
that it will pull a 5000 lb. auto out of hub-deep mud without delay,
expense, trouble 'or damage to car or clothes. Lifts 2000 lbs. dead
weight; pulls 100,000 lbs. on wheels.
No motorist, however experienced and careful, should venture out,
even on the best of roads, without Pull-U-Out, because accident come
suddenly without any warningTrouble is lurking everywhere. You
may get stuck in the mud, skid into a ditch or overturn. It is
then that you will bless the day you bought a Pull-U-Out. With
powerful, inexpensive little Pull-U-Out in your tool box you need
never fear road conditions; you can go wherever your business or
fancy leads you. If you meet with an accident you know that you
have immediate and efficient help right at hand. Don't wait for an
accident to make you wish you'd bought a Pull-U-Out buy one
today.
Does Wonders on the Farm
Wherever there's any heavy lifting or pulling to do, use Pull-U-Out.
or loading and unloading wagons, scalding hogs, quartering beef,
lifting wagon beds and hay racks on and off the running gear,
stretching wire fences, loading baled hay, bales of cotton, sacked
grain and other heavy things, Pull-U-Out is marvelous; It is light,
portable and strong. Easily moved by one man from one place to
another. Does lifting and pulling jobs that usually take from 3 to
a dozen men.
Test it at our risk Pull-U-Out is shipped and sold on the make
good basis. Interesting booklet free. Tells all about Pull-U-Out,
how and why it works.

The following is a section of a let
ter written by Private Paul J. Cook,
a La Grande man, who enlisted in the
United States Marine Corps on May
4, 1917. His father, Mr. A. A. Cook,
now resides at 1305 Pennsylvania ave
nue, La Grande, Ore. ,
I am still safe and sound and never
felt healthier or happier in my life,
and as for going to France, if I go at
all, it will be a long time yet, I may.
be sent to the tropics, as the mar-!
ines are rough and ready fighters who i
fear neither man or devil, and their ,
work is mainly to defend the Monroe I
doctrine. Hut if T should go to!
France, I should face it liko a manj
and leave the rest to God. I have no !
fear of battle and do not worry. I :
love this healthy huppy and broaden-!
ing military life. I am no longer a!
recruit, and am an old soldier com-:
pared with Floyd. I have been all
through training camp, have master-;
ed the manuel of arms, the footdrills, I
the intracacies of military etiquette, ;
the duties of orderly, have done guard
duty in dangerous and responsible po-'
sitions, stood watches long or short, 1
hot in day or cold at night, chnllcng-
ing, saluting officers. Stopping ties-
passers, recognizing credentials and '.
identification of authorized persons, j
and all the duties of a full fledged I'
marine. I have also assisted as or- j
derly for martial court and assisted i
in the impressive ceremony of colors,
which means the morning raising of
"Old Glory ' to the top of the mast, I
while the four trumpeters play the !
"Star Spangled Banner.' I am proud i
to be a real marine, a volunteer of ;
your uncle. The mental and physical j
standard are the highest, the men
being noted for their bravery, polite-1
ness and fidelity to duty. In fact our j
motto is "Semper Fidelis." We have!
heavy woolen overcoats and also a j
"poncho" which is a large rubber
sheet which has an opening for the I
head with a flap which buttons about j
the neck and completely shields us
from wind and rain. As for liberty
we have 19 and a half hours a day and
drill one hour a day five days a week.
The food here is excellent and pro
fuse. Hence I am six feet tall and 28
pounds to the foot. We are quarter
ed at the exposition grounds here at
San Diego. The beutiful buildings
arc still standing. It is certainly fine
here jn fact e'est la paradise.
Since writing this letter Private
Paul J. Cook has been transferred
several times and is now at Guantnna
mo, Cuba. ' : '

London, Sept. 25. (By Mail.) '1
dunno wot's the matter wid you chaps
today, but, as I 'av remarked more'n
once before thank Gawd wo got a
navy." The old sergeant whose arm
had been torn off by "a bit 'o shrap
nel" was drilling a squad of raw re
cruits. "Ow the ell you chaps think
ye're going' to whack the 'Uns when
yo don't know 'ow to at-the-'alt-on-thc-right-form-platoon
'ang t nil, ye
chaps ought to know by this time
Now try it again."
"Of course, I know 'ow you feel
about it. You're fed up, ain't ye?
'An ye think ths drill is all 'umbug
'an eyewash."
"Ye can take my word for it, drills
the thing wots goin' to win this war.
Anybody can be a blinkin' 'ero and
do the death and glory stunt, but it
takes a man to do 'is drill in the field
as steady as Vd do it 'ere on chip
parade ground."
"Let me tell ye 'ow I learned the
good 'o driil. It was doorin' the re
treat I was in charge a party all'o
'em trained soldiers when we come
to a place where the 'uns was chuwin'
up the ground wj machine guns.
Them was the days we 'adn't got no
Lewis guns at all, an only about a
undrcd machine guns in the ole Iint
sh army. Makes ye laugh to think on
it. I can swear we done no laughin'."
" 'An wot did drill do eh ? I'll tell
ye. Soldiers they was and they knew
their drill backwards. I gave the or
der to six paces extend. 'An they
done it without turnrn' a 'air, 'an went
up to the 'un and gave 'im bbi7.es.
'An how many casualties 'ad we, do ye
think. Two. That was all. One chap
was killed 'an another wounded. That
was me, see."
"Now, if we ad been a lot 'o blinkin'
'eroes, instead of a let 'o soldiers
wot'd 'ave 'appened, eh ? We'd all a
been casualties. If ever ye git into a
corner like to was in you'll thank
Oawd for the .lit 'o drill ye was taught
'ere on this paiaile grounu."
Camp Lewis Notes C
Camp Lewis, Tacoma, Wash., Oct.
22 Military authorities here today
are endeavoring to locate a historic
flag snatched from the hands of Allie
Bailey of Sacramento, who was given
the ibanncr for heroism while a bat
tlefield nurse in the Civil war.
She has appealed to Major General
Greene for aid. "I am so lonesome
without the companion of my youth,"
she wrote. "Everything I ever loved
is gone now. I know that I am a back
number myself, but that flag is our
flag which should never be a back
number."
The aged nuisc turned out with her
battered flag to see the Sacramento
boys leave. As the train pulled out,
one of the soldiers-to-be grabbed it
from her.
The Sfith engineers' regiment is
planning a relay race Thanksgiving
day from tha Tacoma Stadium to
Mayor General Greene's headquarters.
Men in hospital units arc develop
ing their sense of direction. They are
making maps, estimating distance and
studying various methods to prevent
being lost. Getting" lost on a battle
feld is a serious matter and the train
ing is expected to prevent it.
