T.) yesterday, Ad-1 aural Johnson kept In touch, with the progress of the planes . by wireless, His flagship was one of six surface vessels spaced at approximately 300 mile Intervals along the course. While expressing appreciation for the honors shown Commander Mc Olnnls and the other officers and men, navy officials again pointed to the orders which said the squadron will now tuke up Its regular duties with the others based at Pearl har bor. - . ' . . The type of planes used .In the flight, It was explained, ore used for "patrolling for enemy submarines,, protection of convoys and long-distance scouting from advanced bases," Commander McGlnnls appeared the least tired of any of the squadron's personnel as he stepped from his plane.

Commander 'McGlnnls and the men who accompanied him have been assigned quarters at Pearl har bor. .

For that, matter, John D., at 93, could get about In 'sprier fashion than his 1 1-year Junior. To play over Rockefeller's nine hole private golf course, Zaharoff would need his wheel chair, as he has been unable to get about much since bis eightieth birthday. He suffers from gout and, while he can: walk a bit If he has support, his wheel chair Is always at hand, " And yet both men, financial kings who built" up tremendous fortunes from nothing over much the same period of history, are passing their old age in much tne same fashion, Both have northern homes which at tract them In the summer. Rocke feller at Tarrytown, and Zaharoff at Arroavllle near Paris. And both go south, as a rule, when winter comes, Rockefeller to Florida and Zaharoff to Monte Carlo,' ' " Zaharoff 'a sporting .activities have been confined In recent years to rowboat excursions In summer on his private lake. Outside ot that di version he spends most at his time reading. At Monte Carlo, the regime Is much the some. He reads world politics with keen Interest, gets all the sunshine that he con and pays not the slightest attention to busi ness. Although his hotel Is a stone's throw from the Casino, which he Is reputed to own, he never, has en tered Its doors. Gavel Made From Historic Tree HARTFORD, Conn.

And an equally great benefactor was the man (oi more likely a woman) who conceived the scheme; of making towels as color fully attractive as they are bathingly serviceable. Along about this time of the year, towels also have their plan of moving from bargain counters to thrifty closets. Linens, handkerchief s and blankets also beckon the eye and prices soothe the pocketbook. January is a glorious month; for bargains! The advertisements in your newspaper are import ant news of the shopping world and they tell an in teresting story of quality and price of things that are new. ,' Did you ever pause to consider how much time and expense these advertisements save you? You make your own decisions in your own home. You figure the cost to a penny. Then, with the help of these daily messages of economy in your newspaper, you go forth on an adventure of buying and return with exactly what you intended to get. ., NOTICE fO CREDITORS - ' Notice Is hereby given that the un dersigned has been duly appointed by the County Court ot the Stat ot Oregon, for Union County, adminis tratrix of the estate of Laura B.
