II
HELP FIX UP SOLDIERS
The Clackamas County Exemption
Board It preparing for a drive for
funds. But unlike many of the other
recent campaign!, the money to be
raised by thlt board will be med
here, and the purpose Is one of the
highest in the war service.
The goveriment has dotifled the
local hospital to prepare for the oper
ations of the class 1, group "B" reg
istrants, of whom there are about 40
in the county. These men are in group
"B" by virtue of requiring; some slight
surgical operation, and the call baa
come for them to enter the service.
The public Is asked to aid in having
these operations performed. Unci
Sam has no funds to pay for the
work. They depend on the hospitals
and the public, and the local institu
tion is wholly ready to do their part.
Miss Mary Swales, proprietor of tlw
hospital, has volunteered to supply
the beds, the nurses, and tba free and
full use of the equipment, and Dra.
Hugh and Guy Mount have patriotic
ally agreed to donate their services,
and to perform the surgery without
charge.
Now the public purse comes in.
What Is needed Is about a dollar
apiece from a thousand and a half
pockets to pay for the supplies nee
essary to the successful perform
ance of these operations Miss Swales
has said that she would gladly pay for
all the upplles, if she could afford it,
but that the turn was more than she
could pay. Besides the ether, bond
ages, cloroform, and medicine, there
will be a two or four week's board
bill for each of the registrants, while
they , are recovering from the effects
of the operations. The drug stores
are to be approached, and It is ex
pected that they will donate a great
percentage of the necessary med
icines. Miss Harrington, clerk of the selec
tive board, is handling the financial
end of the call, and states that she
would appreciate any volunteers who
would be able to set out and canvass
for funds. Any of the parents of these
class "B" boys, who feel that they
were able to pay their own expenses,
are Invited to, although they will not
be required to, as the work Is of a
patriotic nature, and necessary for
the phycicnl fitness of Uncle, Sam's
soldiers.
Oregon City will not be backward.
The sum will be raised, and raised
quickly. The soldiers are needed and
the work must be done. The public
will not expect a few of- tha hard
working patriots to shoulder the
whole burden.

Oh! Misery and W o e!
Parkplace Man Gets
Hit in Eye and Purse
"Woe Is me" walled one Ed Sob
eisewski, when he ran up against the
initiating program-of the Secret So
ciety of Smokers, In the Multnomah
county Jail yesterday forenoon.
But thereby hang! a tale. Early In
the morning on Wednesduy, aa waa
hli wont, taid Ed arose at hla Park
place home, for the day't toll as a
mechanic at the Portland Lumber
Company plant. But some strange
twist of fate put a variance to bit
usual custom, and before departing
he proceeded to severely beat, maul,
pound, hammer, strike, hit, and mal
treat bit faithful wire, by name Elsie
Sobezewski. In fact, if her charges be
true, he so teverely bruised her with
his flistt at to make the attendance of
a physician Imperative, and she call
ed Dr. Strickland to her aid. The doc
tor found her In a serious condition,
and after administering flrat aid, re
manded her to bed, where the may be
forced to remain several dayt.
On the charge of assault and bat
tery preferred against the mechanic,
Constable Frost gave the Portland
police the tip to pick him up at hla
work, and to hold him pending the
arrival of the countable. Sobezewskl
wat eaaily apprehended and lodged
In the Multnomah county Jail. Here
be met a fraternity of prisoners of
which the public knows little. The
Secret Society of Smokers tent their
walking delegate around to the new
comer In their midst for the custom
ary "once over." They tlzed up his
pile, and struck him for two bucks
for their tmoke fund Mr. Ed flatly
refused to contribute toll. Then came
a detail of two husky coons, and
after a few minutes session they con
vinced the recalcitrant that the bett
thing he could do would be at the
Romans do. So for hli two-bonei of
tribute, he received two black eyes,
and some minor Injuries.
Brought before Judge Sieve, of
the Justice Court, to answer the
charges preferred by his disabled
wife, he plead not guilty. The genial
Judge calmly aald a hundred dollars
bond. Mr. Sobezewckl said he had not
that much with his., but if they would
let him go home to get it he would
give the ball. On the trip to Park
place, be was accompanied by the
watchful constable and Deputy Dis
trict Attorney Thomas A. Burke, who
takes a keen Interest in such things.
While the man was procuring the
money from the bottom of a trunk,
wherein laid the sum of $350, Mr.
Burke looked aoout and found that
the family was poverty stricken. No
food was In the cupboards, no fuel
was In the shed. The mother and the
two children were In need of provis-
lont.
Upon returning to the court with
the funds tor the bond, Mr. Burke
presented his testimony. The good
Judge Immediately tacked on the sum
of $50 to the bail, to be put up with
the court for the expenses of the lit
tie family at Parkplace during the
pendancy of the hearing, which has
been set-for July 10th.
So taken all around, it '-looks like
Mr. S. was having an adge of bib-
Ical truth hammered Into his con
sclousness. " In what measure ye
mete, so shall it be meted ye again.

decree of Circuit Judge Campbell
Tuesday afternoon. Mr. " Mumpower
had filed an action against Anna
Sprague. the administratrix of the es
tate of Mark Sprague, deceased, who
was holding the property as one of

ment made during the lifetime of the
deceased, title to the property had
gone from Mumpower to Sprague, as
security for the loan, of some money.

accotuing to the complaint, the title
was to be vested in the plaintiff as
soon as the obligation of $250 had
been met. This has been done, says
Mumpower. but the other party to
the agreement died without transfer
ring the title back to him. His conten
tions were sustained by the decree of

Did I tell yon about the too we
started here lately? The boys have
caught two wild boars about six
weeks old, six young crows and we
bought ft young fox. All are quite
tame excepting the fox and he wilt
bite If he gets ft chance.
The mail has Just come In and I'm
going to see if I got another letter.
Yours as ever,
A. A. ALF.
