"'M--M'J THE INDEPENDENCE NATIONAL BANK Established 1689 A Successful Business Career of Twenty Five Years INTEREST PAID ON TIME DEPOSITS OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS H. Hirschberg, Pres. D. W. Sears, V. P. R. R. DeArmond, Cashier W. H. Walker, I. A. Allen, O. D. Butler A letter from the Crescent City of the south written by Dr. Claude Fryer to hij father, T. J. Fryer. Dr. Fryer is an Inde pendence boy and h s many friends here who will be glad to know that he is specializing in Public Health at Tulane Univer sity in New Orle.ns, La , on3 of the most refutable insiitutionsin the United States. Excerpts from the letter are: "1 am here in New Orleans ready to commence my work in J Public Health. Think I am go ing to like it fine. It is mostly field work, the practical side; also have lectures to attend. "This is sure some quaint and ancient old town, quite historic. "The weather here is hot for this time of year; as warm as your weather there in summer. j "i am working in the Public ! Health Laboratory now and line iit very much; think I shall Ret a jlot out of it. i "See where the Canadians are i in the thickest of the fray." ; An interesting letter to T. J. ! Fryer fiom his daughter, Mrs. :; T. C. Campbell, who is a Red ; Cross nurse nt Connaught Hos Jpital, Aldershot, Hants, England follows: "I have been intending to wnte you for so long, but since i 1 have been here, I have spent every off minute in bed. We get up at C:30 a. m. ' and keep going ! until 9:30 or 10 at night. There are 1600 patients here and such a lot of work to. do. 1 dc not know how long I will be able to keep it up, but w ill try to do my bit w hile I can. Tom is right at the front in the very thick of it. He is petting some wonderful experience, but is all the time in very great peril. He said, a few days ago he saw some shrapnel fall in a farm yard, and it was positively funny to see the women and children, pigs and cows, chickens, everything, get under cover. No one was hurt. "I, expect you get as much war news as we do. Did you get the pictures of Tom? I sent you two snap shots of him and a large picture. I would like to send you some pictures of myself in the Red Cross uniform, but it is against the law to send any pictures, so I must keep them until we get home. The Ore gonian wanted a picture of me but of course I cannot send it. Did the neighbors ever receive my post cards? I am sorry if they did not, for I will net have time to write letters to them all. It seems a nuisance when every thing is ro innocently done, not to have the pnvilige of sending some picture post cards. They are getting out some post cards of actual wai scenes. I w ill see if I can have some of them sent to you direct from the publisher. "There are Z and C aeroplanes going over us all the time. They go over to France from here.

Tom stretched himself and ; blinked his eyes and says: "What do you think I saw last night? ! As a friend and I w ere walking I up the street last night, we saw j a couple of yung fellows sneak j down an alley. Thinking they were after some man's chickens, I we watched them. Sure enough i they wtnt through the alley and j across the next street and caught two chickens. The owners were not at home so they did not miss them. They were married chickens and each had little chicks at home and I think it would look much nicer for those chickens to stay at borne and Jook after their little chicks than to be running around on the dark streets with those young roost ers."

This in-1 , cretse alone consumed 7500 bales of hops, figuring but half a pound ' of hops to the barrel. This in creased consumption of beer and : hops may stimulate the Oregon hop market somewhat. There is no apparent reason for the 1 disrarity in'price3 in the Cali fornia and Oregon markets. Aurora Observer. The car shortage in the Wil lamette Valley is gradually being I elievsd. "NORTHERN LIGHTS" TO BE SEEN THIS WINTER For the first time in 11 years the aurora borealis, commonly known as the nortnern lights, will be visible to the people of Oregon within the winter of 1910-17, according to Edward H. McAlister, professor of me chanics and astronomy of the University of Oregon. This phenomenon is bright to the people of this latitude only dur ling the time when the sun spots have reached their maximum I number. The sun Rpots reach 1 their maximum only once in 11 ! years, and, according to Profes sor McAlister, there seems to be jsome connection between the size anii number of the spots and j the intensity of the diBplay cf the northern lights. EXPERT OPINION That the county commissioners 'should need the opinion of an expert bridge engineer to de termine if the Independence bridge was constructed properly or not seems to be a joke. Ac cording to report the bridge very ! promptly fell down as soon as j the false work was removed, : m;arcely, giving the workmen time t.o'get out'of.the way. Surh being the case the commissioners ; , certainly need no expensive ex- j pert testimony to decide that it fell down. Falls City News. I CHRISTIAN F.

I he late rains brought'about late matings and the early rains were hatched as the cold rain con tinue!. Hundreds of the young birds perished, w hole broods in Home cases b ing wiped out. This is especially; true of the housekeeping concerns of the Chinese pheasants. As a result, second broods were numerous and the' young birds are little more than feathered babies now. If the open season comes, it will meun the slaughter of these in fants, and to consc rve the game interests the curtailment of the season is planned. Salem Cap-itaPJcurna!.
