RED CROSS BADLY
NEED OF FUNDS FOR
1 COMING YEAR
WASHINGTON, Nov. 9. "The Red
Coras comes to its fourth rollcall with
its war task still unfinished," said
Dr. Livingston Far rand, chairman of
the central committee, in a statement
urging enrollment in the relief society
during the fortnight beginning on
Armistice day, November 11.
'Never were the world and national
needs so pressing and the correspond
ing opportunities for service so
great, declared Dr. Ferrand. "It is
only too evident that the world has
not been able even to approach re
establishment after the war. Wide
spread distress and sickness star us
in the face In Europe and the Red
Cross is carrying on to the estent ot
its resources In an attempt to answer
the call to help. How permanent and
tar-reaching, that answer shall be de
pends upon the minds and the con
science of the American people.
"At home the wounded and sick sol
diers and sailors in hospitals and
elsewhere are still numbered by the
thousands. The Red Cross cannot
demobilize its forces organized to
uaiiu uy muse wno save, lueir uesij
. a i . i . i , ,
for their country and eitend what aid!
and comfort may be possible."

IN FRONT OF FARMS
"This Is a Mistland orchard."
Members of the Oregon Growers
Cooperative Association will receive
sometime this fall a beautiful colored
enamel sign", with the above wording
These signs are to be posted over the
approaches to orchards owned by
Oregon Growers.
C. I. Lewis, of the Association, has
been working on signs that will not
only be attractive from an artistic
Btandolnpt, but will be so colored that
the wording may be easily read by
passing tourists, as well as by homo
folks.
The signs are to be about 13 by 20
inches, painted on enamel in order to
mdke them weather porof, and attrac
tive enough in colors to be easily
noticed. It Is probable that the back
ground will be black, with a large
triangle covering most of the sign in
triage colo Over this orange and
bUck will be lettering in white, that
can be easily read.
Incidentally, wkh the Mistland
sign over the entarnce to an orchard.
the owner thereof will be doing his
part in advertising Mistland products!
and letting the world know that hn is'
and letting the world know that he is
a member of the Oregon Growers

'DERM DEATH, AVE
J
FACE STARVATION
SEATTLE, Wash., Nov. 8. Faced
by a fierce battle for existence, five
men aboard the power schooner Polar
Bear are trapped in the Arctic ice off
the remote Siberian shore until next
summer, with only provisions to last
two months. A snowsled expedition
will probably be rushed from SibeWa.
In the meantime, the ice pack
threatens to crush the vessel and add
another ship tragedy to the long list
of far north disasters.
The Polar Bear iB held prisoner In
the ice off Cape North. 225 miles
northwest of Nome- She is a 7
footer, built of wood, her hull being
sheathed in ironbark as a protection
against ice.
News of the present plight of the
Polar Bear and her crew was received
. today from Nome. First word that
the power schooner had been caught
in the Arctic ice was brought to
Seattle October 15 by Olaf w-v
son, head of the Hibbard Swenson
arctic expedition, which arrived hew
on that date in the power schooner
Kamchatka. At that time, however,
the Polar Bear was believed to have
a fighting chance to work her way
through the ice pack. The advices
received yesterday show that the
vessel was unable to break through
the Icy fetters.

OVER NEW ROAD
cording to complaints filed with
the court here yesterday. Clack
amis cooiity is asked to pay $26,800
additional damages to Allison Ilaker,
E. L. Baker and Emily U Bowman,
all of Wilsonville.
Three claims were filed separate
ly, two Of them for $10,400 and the
other one for $6,000, as the result of
the court passing favorably on what
is known as the Carrol road, near
Wilsonville. The road in question is
to be built In the settlement knowi.
as Carroll, and will cover a distance
of about three miles, running throuijn
the properties of the abovs named
people. It was surveyed by the coun
ty surveyor, and passed on by tho
road viewers, and the court yesterday
ordered work started on the ncn
sfetch.
Allison Bake- asks $10,400 damage
against the county, claiming that the
new stretch of road ran through hl.i
farm, which will cause him to spend
$700 for- fmc.e; lose $700 worth of
land; and othf-r damages to his pro
perty.
E. l j. Baker ask for an addition,!,
sum of $10,400, claiming damages to
his land for this amount. He practical
ly cites the same causes as Allison
Baker.
Emily L. Bowman wants $0,000,
which she claims is due her a
damages when the road will go
through h';r place.
When the county road viewer ap
praised the land of all three pro
perties which vill be taken up by
the new road, the following sums
were allotted to the owners, and a
statement handed to the court as to
the value of the land:
Allison Baker, $170; E? L. Baker,
$100; Emily I,. Bowman, $160.
The above figures are , practically
what the cout tendered the owners,
who claim that it is not enough
hence the complaints.
