Take a Ride in the Beautiful $10,000 Merry-Go Round and Giant Ferris Wheel. Lots of Good Clean Amusements for Everybody DON'T FORGET THE DATE I * In all histories of wars among civ- llixed nations It has been known that the rate of insanity is much higher in the army than in civil life, but In this war the extraordinary fatigue of mod ern trench warfare, plus the terrific ar tillery fire, has produced new prob lems. Profiting by the bitter experi ence of the allies, the surgeon genera! has assigned psychopathic specialists i to every camp and cantonment, and al ready, on their advice, more than 16,- | 000 men have been weeded out of the army because of their suscepti bility, Inherited or temperamental, to 1 nervous shock. Still, the man who says he would rather walk five miles In the morning before breakfast than to ride in an automobile is not a dangerous liar. He belongs to the breed characterised by a pernicious and obstreperous eccen tricity of the veracity. If women object to having the height of their shoes reduced by federal or der, there is. of course, the unfailing slipper. Or Is that restricted by fem inine fashion to winter wear?

M. E Church Notice. Rev. Fawcett, a retired minister of the Idaho Conference, now living in Milwaukie, will conduct services at the Lents M. E. Church Sunday morning. Deaconess Nell C.

Brown met with an accident ust 7. which caused his death September 10, 1915. Mrs. Brown then made her home with her daughter, Ellen L. Heckel, on East Gilbert avenue, Still Moving ■ ». where »he passed away July 24, 1918. She was buried in the beautiful Mt. Scott Cemetery July 26, 1918, with the honors which belong to a vet The One-Way-Charge Company eran’s widow. Mrs. Brown was a member of Phil Sheridan Post No. 33 of Tacoma, ¡Wash., having moved to Tacoma after the death of her husband to I live with her son, Frank H. Brown, i then an engineer on the Northern I Pacific Railroad. She lived in Ta- ’ coma until her marriage to H. H. j Brown, a brother of her former hus- I band, when they came to Portland | and made their home at Tigard, and Mt.’ Scott. In the first enthusiasm of food con servation a good many people econo mized vnllantly in dairy product« as well as in meat and in white flour. That was a mistaken economy, how ever. t’sc all the milk and butter and cheese you can afford to buy. They ».re the best sort of food; they are not needed for export, and the gener ous consumption of them will encour age the dairy Industry to expand. Milk and cheese and eggs are the best poa- slhk substitutes for meat; the sup ply of such foods can be increased much more rapidly than the supply of meat; and nothing will effect that In crease so certainly as a steadily in creasing demand for them. Saving accomplishes a -loitble pur pose. It prevents the diversion of la bor to useless activity and it estab lishes our national credit upon n firm and substantial basis. The integrity of our financial structure is only sec ond tn importance to the development of the highest military efficiency. “As a people," in the words of Professor . Scott, “we now have it in our power either to conserve and strengthen our credit system or wreck it.” NEAR STATION Charlotte L. Brown was born in Binghampton, N. Y., May 15, 1830, and went to Beloit, Wi»., when about 16 years of age. Here »he met and married Gideon B. Brown in 1848. Mr. Brown died January 9, 1898. He was a Civil War veteran and was buried with military honors in Rock ford, 111. He was a member of Com pany C, Fifteenth Illinois Infantry, and served four years. The work accomplished by the American Red Cross tn April sur- pasned nil records of the organisation In France, says Arkansan Thomas Cat. Food und drink were supplied to Amer ican soldiers. Nine rest stations and seven canteens provided 468,000 meals. Nine metropolitan canteens served 454- tekl meals. Three large hospitals were built and equipped. Three large dis pensaries have been opened at ports and hundreds of beds have been added to the Red Cross military hos pitals. Many convalescent homes have been opened, laundries Installed, field kitchens set up to supply food to sol diers going to and returning from the battlefields and 221,000 bags of tobacco and cigarettes distributed at the camps. Each field kltchcu has a capacity of 5,000 men dally. Canteens have been established behind the American lines where the soldiers gather at night to smoke, play game« and write letters to the ones at home. There Is nothing mean or narrow In the program of Major General Gorgas for the participation of women in war work as nurses and physicians and surgeons. He says to the women : “Your country needs you!” and he advocates as a policy for congress to | enforce by legislation the adoption of ; the principle that women doctors and surgeons engaged In war work are en titled to the same military rntik r • medical officers similarly engaged who 1 happen to he of what Artemus Ward humorously designated as “the male persuasion." BIG UNITED SHOWS t Bawdry de Haunter which are almost as applicable to America as to France: “Why.” asks the f. nous scienttat, “are our railroads, which bum almost 9,000,- 000 tons a year, not operated by elec tricity? In water power Franco Is one of the richest countries In the world. But only one of our systems, that of the Midi, Is electrified, and that only partially. Why does our shipping, both naval and mercantile, cling to coal heated boilers when oil furnacea have already proved a success on sev eral steamers? Why should not the coal range of our kitchens tie abolish ed by law, some day looi, sine« It eats up coal madly? And there are many other similar ways. It will take time to make these changes, no matter bow hurriedly they he undertaken, but they must be tackled at once If the rigors of the transition period are not to be prolonged beyond our powers to benr •hem.” And he adds that restriction is not a mere war measure that wlil vanish as soon as peace be restored, but a “symptom of the economic labor that Is «training the whole world like u new volcanic outbreak, for the world 1« cracking because the war is mak ing Its evolution far too rapid."
