Guaranteed Circulation The week beginning February 14 to 19 has been designated as prune week and it will be generally observed throughout the state. Prunes are a staple Oregon crop and no better ar ticle of fruit is grown anywhere than the Oregon product. Export condi tions are unsatisfactory this season and growers are left with large stocks »Id, facing because of this fact a unsold, large loss. Every effort is being made to remedy the situation and it ia known that if local people would grown utilize this healthful home _ product in the dishes that grace the table in Oregon homes both the pro ducer and grower would be benefitted thereby. Prunes are reasonable in price today and can be used in prac tically every dish in which the Cali fornia raisin now appears. The proclamation of Governor Ol cott which follows, sets out the situ ation clearly: “To the People of the State of Ore gon: •The prune industry is one of the greatest horticultural industries with in the state of Oregon Nearly forty thousand acres of our finest agricul tural lands are planted with prune trees. Last year, despite adverse weather conditions, thirty million pounds of prunes were harvested in the state. Of this number but eight million have been sold. The twenty- two million pounds unsold represent an enormous asset to the State of Oregon if they can be moved and placed in the hands of consumers. The fact that they are lying idle jeopar dizes this enormous industry. The people of the state of Oregon should give widest co-operation to the prune growers to mwt the grave situation. "I hereby designate the week from February 14 to February 19th, inclu sive, as Prune Week within this state. I call upon the good spirit of our people to join in a movement to as sist this groat industry, not only for the good of the industry itself, but for the ,’ood of the people of the state as a whole. I urge that every home n Oregon take advantage of the op portunity which is presented by the pripe grower« to become well stocked with this nourishing and healthy fruit. I ask co-operation from hotels, grocers, restaurants, or from any other source which may give assist ance, and I also bespeak the hearty co-operation of the press, which is al ways freely given in the furtherance of everv proper and beneficial move ment. This is a serious situation, in volving the welfare of thousands of our best ci’izens. Prompt and hearty response from the people of Oregon will relieve the situation and bring nbout a quick betterment of condi tions. I am certain the appeal of the prune growers will not be in vain. "Very sincerely vours. “REN W.

Roll In for $5 Weekly Prize Clarence O’Neil Gets the Money for Second Time, With a Total of 46,650 Votes Again the votes rolled in upon the Herald manager in the struggle for the $5.00 weekly prize in the trade at-home contest. Clarence O’Neil had the largest number and for the sec ond time captured the money with a grand total of 46,650. Of this num ber about 15,000 were the result of subscriptions to the Herald he se cured and the remainder in single ballots. Clarence has a lot of friends in th:» community and they are rally ing to his support right loyally. Mrs. B S. Jones of 5<t havenue was second with 29,500, all in single coupons, as was true last week, when she finished in the same relative po sition. Margaret I eitch, the little girl who has the school children, among oth er», lined up in her support, did not enter, but contented herself with sending In a correct answer, which netted her 500 votes. No doubt Mar garet will be out trying for the mo ney next week, and as she baa some mighty good campaign managers the other contestants had best beware. To date no contestant has succeed ed in winning without securing s-ma subscriptions for the paper. This fact is purely and sin.plv a coincidence, al though there is no doubt but that the thousand votes given with each such subscription is a mighty big help. A suggestion—some Arleta woman who would take the trouble to go out among her neighbors and friends and get their subscriptions would make a lot of pin money and get a running start toward the big prizes to be «riv en at the conclusion of the contest, which has practically only started. One good week's work along the line spoken of would pay a good sum for the effort. FATHER O’FLYNN IS PROPERTY CHANGES HANDS SPEAKER ON IRELAND IN MT. SCOTT DISTRICT The following is taken from the Catholic Sentinel of February 3: “The largest crowd that ever lis tened to a Catholic priest in Salem faced Father O’Flynn st the armory here Sunday afternoon, when he re hearsed the sUfry of the wrongs of Ireland at the hands of a tyrranical government and showed in a convinc ing manner that religious differences are not the cause of the country’s trouble*. He showed also by the tes timony of Protestant writers and of English writers that even the trou bles brought on by the Orangemen of North East Ulster are largely ar tificial— that they are instigated by British governing influences and fo mented by agitators sent over from Englund for that purpose, in order that British statesmen may have an excuse for the use of repressive meas ures and armed forces ’to keep peace in Ireland*. Father O’Flynn’s address was a strong indictment of British ________ _________ perfidy and 1 an earnest defense of inland’s claim to an independent na- tionality. Following his address, I Monsignor Arthur Lane was intro duced as the grandson of Oregon’s first governor and son of one of its early congressmen, and he delivered a brief but eloquent talk which was greatly enjoyed.” | That property is changing hands in the Mt Scott district is evidenced by the number of sales reported to the Herald by realty dealers of the vicin ity. No attempt was made to secure all such transfers; the following were reported to the paper incidental to other business transactions: By Cable Realty Co„ Treniont Christian Wiese and wife have pur chased from Henry Phillips, the lat ter’s Woodmere home on Woodstock avenue; modern. J. H. Lowell is the purchaser of the m .dern four-room home of Wm. Bone the property being located on 57th avenue. Wm. Woods has sold his home on 89th street and 56th avenue, five rooms, modern, to E. J .Flynn Rev. Fowler of the Apostolic Faith has purchased for the use of his son the four-room modem home at 7924 Foster Road. Lauer Realty Co. A Mr. Carrington has bought 0,1 5.3rd avenue, D. E. Hart is the new owner of a fine $3000 property on 74th avenue. Mary Eastman has purchased house on 55th avenue; value $1100. The foregoing is printed purely as a matter of news, and without any comment by this paper of the views entertained by Reverend Father 0’Flynn. I I LOCAL MAN INJURED IN AUTOMOBILE COLLISION Ash Wednesday during the present week marked the bginning of Lent. The lenten season opened early this year as Easter falls on March 27. This is the third time this century Ash Wednesday has fallen so early in the year Lent, which is thc annual season of fasting among professing Christians, is the 40 week days preceding Easter. The six days occurring in this period are excluded from Lent for the reason that Sunday is always a feast day. These Sundays are therefore called Sundays in (not of) Lent. lent will not come so early again for several years. Next year it will be about three wekes later, as Easter fails on April 16. !
