wife. Sometime afterward my
wife had a son; ho is my father's
brother-in-law and my uncle,
for ho is the brother of my slop
mother. Mv father's wife,
namely, my slop-daughter, had
also a son; he is of course, my
brother, and in the meantime my
grandchild, for he is the son of
my daughter. My wife is my
grandmothor because she is my
mother's mother. I am my wife's
husband and grandchild at the
same time, and as the husband
of a person's grandmother is his
grandfather, I am my own grand
father.

Dear Folks at home: When 1
last wrote about my approaching
visit to the city of Lyons I did
not fully appreciate my opportu
nity. The trip is over now and
wo are back to work auain. everv
one a better soldier than when
he went.
There were 2f0 men nicked

regiments, formed a battalion to

Last Monday evening State
Manager, L. M. Thomas pre
sented to the St. Johns Council
2775, Knights and Ladies of Se
curity, the coveted prize for
last quarter, the state banner,
which has been won by our
Council. This is a great honor
lor St. Johns Council, also for
the city, as we have here in
Portland some of the strongest
councils in the country. The
famous Kirkpatrick Council of
Portland, with a membership of
nnnrlv lfiOO members, have had
tho state banner most of the
time, having won it right along.
and they were of the opinion that
it belonged to them, and they
thought that it was as safe in
their hall as if it was under lock
and key. They never dreamed
that little old St. Johns Council
had enough pen to try and win
the banner, but I guess we
caught them napping this time.
This had been a great year for
St. Johns Council. Wo now
occupy our new homo and have
won the banner und wo want to
trv to keen it here. We had u
bitr feed last Monday night.
Don't forget the big dances we
have every Saturday night they
are for everybody who are look
inir for a trood time: also every
other Monday evening. We also
started our campaign to keep the
banner here. It will run lor six
weeks: the losers will banquet

Uncle Sam Wants
At the request of the U. S.
Food Adminstrntion, our
Company has loaned one of
our Moderu Electric Ranges

Do you want tiny stronger
approval of any cooking de
vice than this?
Uncle Sam asked us for an
lilectric Itungc becutisc it
fills the bill better than any
other Cooking Device made.
We urge all housewives
interested iu the patriotic
service of their country as
well as all who want their
kitchens equipped with the
most modern, convenient
and reliable cooking appa
ratus to visit the Liberty
Temple and see for them

unless it has an edge that will cut. Steel quality is the
first essential in all edged tools, and that is the striking
characteristic of those we sell. Look at them before you
buy.
