received while over-seas, and who has
been in a government hospital in Port
land receiving medical treatment, re
cently transerred to Camp Kearney,
Cal. He writes to his father in this
city of the excellent treatment he is
receiving in the south.
In the letter Dan says:
"I am well pleased with this camp.
The people are so kind here to the
ex-service men, treating them with
great honor. It was very cold coming
over the mountains, and the following
morning I found that we had reached
a beautiful valley in California. About
mid-day we arrived at a settlement
where the people were lounging under
the shade trees. It was a great sur-1
prise to me for it was raining 'to beat
the band' when I left home. The next
morning we reached that wonderful
city Los Angeles. At the depot the
Red Cross representatives met us, and
escorted us around the city and then
out to the beach, and we certainly had
a fine time. The following morning
I went up to the veterans' headquar
ters for transportation to San Diego.
I was informed that I could remain
there for another day if I desired, so
the boys and I took advantage of this
.offer, and remained for the extra day,
which we did not regret, for we were
given a royal reception, allowed to at
tend 'shows and everything else free.
"I arrived at Camp Kearney on
Tuesday morning at 10 o'clock.
"One of the features of this trip
which I could not help but notice were
the homes of the American Legion
boys at the little towns along the way
and Oregon City 1? mighty slow in not
having one for its Legion. One would
think that a city of its size could af
ford to erect a building if smaller
cities can do so. It seems that the
boys serving in the world war are ap-
preciated down here. exceedingly precarious.

would like to hear from all my friends
as this will keep me from getting

OF FALLS WHIRLPOOL
Victim Is Resusitated After
Half Hour's Work; Death'
Is Said Narrowly Averted.
After having been nearly drowned
in the rushing waters below the Wil
lamette Falls, Adam Kessler. a local
fisherman today owes his life to "Dub"
and Sam Finnucane.
At noon Wednesday, Kess'.o.- was
fishing near the Willamette Falls
when the boat, containing him and his
companion, drifted near to the
swrl at the base of the fall. The cratt
enured one, of the small whirl pools
and shipped water over the side. It
-as whirled around, and fillei t-o
rapidly with a side under that th-i men
were thrown into the stream.
Kessler's companion, was rescued
trcm the disabled craft, but Kessler
himself was washed heavily by the
current.
The Finnucane boys who were fish
ing nearby, cut their anchor upon see
ing the predicament of the craft. The
iniinber of fishing boats near the falls
and the swift and uncertain current of
the river made any attempts at rescue
hour before he was revived and it is .
believed that a vpy few moments
marked the difference between life
and death.
The water logged craft was picked
up down the river where it drifted by
some of the other fishermen.

ing from the accident, was circulated
around the city that someone had been
drowned. Employees in the mills saw
the empty craft floating by.
