Summer Cabins on
Sandy Are Robbed
SANDY, July 3 About two weeks
ago Mr. Epler of Portland came out
to his cabin on the Sandy river, near
Strongs, and discovered that the
house had been broken into and every
piece of furniture, every dish, cook
ing utensil, in fact everything in the
furnished cabin had been stolen. To
reach this place it is necessary to
walk down the steep bluff trail, as it
is impossible to get to the house with
a team, and the thief or thieves had
to carry bed springs, etc., up a steep
trail. The door locks and windows
were taken," and after several years
of summering here, the Elders cannot
come out as planned this year, for
it would take too long to carry in a
new outfiti The adjoining Wygant
house was also broken into and about
the same state of affairs is reported.
Both the Elders and Wygants are
very much discouraged over their
losses, and it will keep them from
coming here. It is hoped that every
body in Sandy will try to do detec
tive work on this case.

raised up on the sound and is prov
ing a valuable cow feed. This newl
feed is grown extensively in " the

as.much feed as kale. The stalks growl
much larger and the stalk or "mar
row" is good for feeding. These
stalks are "corded" up like wood in
the barn after the leaves are taken
off. The leaves come off more read
ily than kale, as the plant " grows
more like a tree. Mrs. Miller brought

GREAT BRITAIN'S IMPORTS
Official monthly returns for the
first quarter of 1922 indicate that
British imports of passenger cars,
trucks and chassis tare aain on the
increase. The total aumber of pass
enger cars and trucks imported dur
ing tlis period was 2,495, valued at
461,328. and chassis numbered 2,
379, valued at 479,009. During the
corresponding quarter of 1921 the to
tal, number of passenger cars and
trucks imported amounted to 2,914,
valued at 681,156, but imported
chassis numbered only 963, valued at
314,863. Canada ranked first in re
gard to number of finished cars fur
nished'and fourth with respect to
chassis. Italy was third for finished
cars and first for chassis, while the
United States was fourth in finished

A Paris dispatch related recently
that a pig fled from the Halles and
ran down the Rue de Rivoli.-upsetting
two gendarmes. She then went to a
department store, was carried up one
escalator, down another and found
refuge in the dress-goods department
In the basement, where she sank into
a calm slumber. This is well enough
In its way and for a European pig,
but .it has too many signs of accident.
It may have amused the Parisians to
hear about this. Perhaps it may have
deepened their conviction that the
ville lumiere is the mother of novel
ties. But if so, they sadly mistake.
The New Hampshire Gazette of Janu
ary 6, 1775, contains the following -advertisement:
"A Pig Came to the
House of Mark Loud in Portsmouth
about a fortnight ago the Owner may
have him again by applying to the
said Loud." The conscientious Loud,
though feeling the greatest respect
and friendship for the pig that had
made him a fortnight's visit, evidently
felt that he ought to go home. Noth
ing is said about reward ; that is left
to the delicacy of the pig's owner and
It must have been an exceptionally in
telligent pig, even for New England, to
have left this pleasant impression on
Mr. Loud. There is no evidence that
any dispatch was sent to the French
or English press about the incident,
although It is far .more interesting
than that of the Paris pig that upset
the gendarmes. J. H. S., in the Boston-Transcript.
LOCAL BATTLER FIGHTS
DRAW IN GO AT KELSO
" George Hale, local 122 pounder, met
Brick Coyle of Vancouver at Kelso on
the Fourth and after a fast fight won
a draw with the veteran battler.
According to fans who witnessed
the bout it was one of the fastest ever
held in Kelso and while Coyle carried
the first three rounds Hale took the
fifth and sixth and was the stronger
at the finish.
Coyle has developed a knockout
punch recently and while training fo
this bout slipped the kayo to several
sparring partners. Vancouver fans
were so sure that Hale would not last
the entire distance that they wagered
on the result and went home sadder
but wiser. Hale fought a cautious
battle for the first three rounds, but
as the much heralded kayo failed to
develop he became more confidatit and
waded in and gave as good or better
than he received.
Coyle has had numerous battles,
while Hale is just starting in the game
and is gaining experience fast. The
local boy gave away 6 pounds, weigh
ing in at 119, while Coyle topped this
at 125 pounds.
FEAST CHANGED IN MEANING
Jewish Passover Originally Agricul
tural Festival Now Refers Di
rectly to Escape From Egypt.
The Jewish festival of Passover com
memorates the release of the Hebrews
from Egyptian bondage. The festival
opens with a household ceremony,
called the Seder, at which a collation
is served and various religous rites
performed, including a recital of the
events of the Exodus, from a special
ritual service compiled for this occa
sion. Originally Passover was an agricul
tural feast. At a later period it be
came dissociated in part from its prim
itive nature and came to refer direct
ly to the escape from Egypt, which in
vested the festival with the new and
highly significant spiritual message of
liberty for all mankind.
In the synagogue the note of spring
is reflected in assigned scriptural
reading wherein the worshiper is re
minded that the winter is over. This
is in -harmony with the purpose of the
Passover, which is to recall to mind
the many miracles which were wrought
in behalf of the House of Jacob by the
never-slumbering guardian and keeper
of IsraeL Israel is bidden, through
the annual message of Passover, to
work fqr the eventual triumph of hu
manity over the tyranny of injustice
and iniquity. Detroit News.

his wife and daughter on November
3, 1718, and this incident was the in
spiration for a ballad, the "Lighthouse
Tragedy," written by Benjamin Frank
lin, then a boy of thirteen. In his
autobiography he tells us that his
brother induced him" to print and sell
copies of this ballad on the streets
of Boston, and that it "sold wonder
fully," the event being recent and
"having made a great noise." No
copy of this ballad seems to have been
preserved, but the author admits It
was "wretched stuff."
HEALTH LECTURER WILL
SPEAK AT CHAUTAUQUA
Edna Eugenia Lowe to Discuss "Dan-
Sir Signals on the Road
to Health." -
In very warm temperature niicro
arganisms multiply rapidly. Chill re
tards their development. This is why
food spoils so much quicker in sum
mer than in winter. If we would keep
our milk sweet, our butter firm, our
letuce crisp, and all our foods for a
longer period we must keep them
cool. "
With an ice refrigerator, the prob
lem is solved. But there are times
and places- where ice is not to be' had.
For the farm, the camp, and hot cli
mates, the ice-less refrigerator helps.
This makes use of the fact that
when water evaporates, it draws off
heat from surrounding objects. Wrap
your lettuce, your milk bottle, your
butter crock with a wet towel and
they will keep in condition several
hours longer than otherwise.
To make an iceless refrigerator,
use a wooden, frame with a shelf or
two or three. Leave one side open
for a door, and tack rustless screen
ing about the rest. Cover this with a
jacket of canton flannel, smooth side
out. On top set a very slowly leaking
pan of water. The whole apparatus
must sit in a pan to catch the drip,'
if the refrigerator is in-doors. The
pan on top of the refrigerator must be
re-filled at Intervals, as the water will
seep down, keeping the canton flan
nel jacket wet.
Inside a well-made and closely fit
ting device of this kind, the tempera
ture is only a few degrees higher
than in an ice refrigerator.
For emergencies - the principle of
the ice-less refrigerator may be ap
plied in many unique ways.
One woman puts water in a dish, ,
sets her butter dish inside this and
covers it with an ordinary flower pot.
The porous material of the flower
pot soaks up water.

interesting manner and her lecture
