WRITES FROM FRANCE Brogan Boy Enjoys Trip Across French People Are Pleasant Albert Horn writes to sister Mar garet and his mother, Mrs. G. Horn of Brogan about hi3 experience in the European war zone. Somewhere in France, March 6, 1018. Dear Sis: Received the letter you sent to Hempstead here in France we have good mail service here. I have also heard from Lu he is still in Canada, he says, he made good up there. France is sure a nice country, we have been over quite a little of it and I sure like it. We have very nice weather here now, just like spring. They raise lots of grapes around here and wine is very cheap. The costumes of the people are very odd, some still wear those wooden shoes called sea- boots. In the last place we were at there was an old Cathedral about six hundred years old and it sure is a largo one. Napoleon was held n prisoner there once. Theyuse one horse carts and oxens to plow with. They have very good roads here. We have taken several hikes out in the country and 1 have sure enjoyed them. I am glad you liked those pictures. I sure was thin then alright but have gained about fifteen pounds since we left Omaha. I don't have a chance to go to any more dances, I guess that is the reason. I also received a letter from Harry Lang from Woodhaven N. Y., but I got it here in France so it didn't do me any good you see, we only stayed in Hempstead about ten days. I sure would have visited them had I known it while I was there as it's only a short distance from there. Your loving brother, ALBERT. Somewhere in France. Dear Folks: I have arrived here in good healthly condition, and had a very pleasant trip. We also had very nice weather after wo were out on the ocean it was not cold as it was in the states. We traveled through England and the scenery suro is great. The roads are all paved with concrete. The .grass was green and the trees were budding. Here in France it is still warper than in England, the country is ajso very beautiful. The houses here aVe much older and more decayed. They have lots of stone walls around small plots of ground, something like five or ten acres. There are no large farms here at all. The people here are very nice, more so than the English but we cannot converse much as our French is limit ed. I went out to walk in the country and sure enjoyed it. The farmers hero still plow walking plows and have a team of oxens or cows hitched to the plow. They have many one horse "carts. What horses they do have here are good sized. We have French kids 'around the camp especial ly during meal time and they sure arc well pleased when we give thero something to cat. $ Your loving son, ALBERT.

PROFITS SHOULD REMAIN AT HOME Raw Materials Should Be Transformed Into Finished Articles Where They Are Produced. Oreton need never havo fear 'about ihn future If Its Deoplo will but makr known its possibilities of giving to the world something better for less money than can other portions of the globe. L. J. Simpson, an authority on conv miinitv dcvclonmcnt, In a recent tall' made before the people of Washington County, on the occasion of the openlnf. of the Pacific Coast Starch Company'f plant at Beaverton, showed how lack of proper exploitation has failed to eIvg the nubile tho proper appreciation of goods that are made right here ot home. For example: Miles and miles oi streets In Boston, London, Paris auo" Tterlln are naved with wooden blocks, and only a few years ago Boston tool) out moro than 100 miles of Belgian block pavement and replaced It with wooden blocks. Yet in cities of the Northwest thort 1b today little or no wooden block pave ment. Recently the fact was brought ou' that a company, whoso advertlsementt are seen In every national magazlm and whose business In ready-madf houses runs into millions, gets mucr of its lumber from our Oregon forests. Mr. blmpson said: "Thero Is no reason In the world why people outside of Oregon should make the greatest profit on the things which wo produco and until the flrnt and last profit on our gooJs- stays within our boundaries we have not dono ourselves and our Btate Justice. "It Is these things which we must face and act upon now. They are mat ters that certainly will not improve with age. "There are a thousand and one things made from the products of Ore gon on which the manufacturing profit is reaped at places miles and miles away. "When I speak of these things, I am not dealing In generalities. Some will naturally ask, 'Well, what Ib to be done?' "On that, I want to tell you of tho Bltuatlon at Coos Bay. Thai, Inciden tally, Is a great community. It's great because every man there has a chance and because pcoplo there have come to realize that what Is good for the com munity is also the best thing for them. "In that comparatively small part of Oregon there are more representative fncturlne nlanta than In any other similarly populated part of Ore gon, with the exception, of courso, ot Portland. "Of course, some of tho products ot tho region are still shipped away In crude form, but on the other hand there is much manufacturing In tho Coos Bay cities and the profit stays there. "For example, timber when It leaves Coos Bay Is almost In Its final form. No logs are shipped from there. "The box factories are busy. Then, there are a dozen other plants which do the work right down to tho last bit of finishing on novelty goods made from tho myrtle and other fancy woods of the Coos Bay region." Mr. SimDson encourages and 1b a bcllover In co-operative community de velopment, of communities rostering new plants and Industries. He com mended the people of Washington County on their Interest in the new starch plant. "When the people of Oregon get Into the habit of keeping their raw ma terials hero 'until they are manufac tured, then, and not till then, will the state bo on -a baslB of permanent pros perlty," he concluded.

DORSEY IlllIlllllIIIllIlllIllIllIIIUlllllllllI Capital Should Be Invested In Indus tries to Develop Oregon. Claiming that what Oregon needed was a little moro faith on the part of the Individual, L. J. Simpson recently pointed out how an effective, progres sive state administration could help Instill this feeling In private enter prise. "Oregon today needs more of the faith that will cause men to invest their money in some enterprise which will develop an industry which should logically be Oregon's," said Mr. Simp son. lie Ib a great believer In "startle something" and believes tf the average man knew how often he could gei "over the top" with his Ideas, tfcera would bo more successful ventures.
