SHERMAN DID SAY,
"WAR IS HELL"
SON OF GENERAL WILLIAM T. SHERMAN URGES PREPAREDNESS
FOR NATIONAL DEFENSE.
Son of Noted Soldier, Visitor

dress and Epigram.
NATIONAL DEFENSE URGED
Rev. Father Thomas Erring Sherman
Quotes Bible as Proof That
Strong Man Needs Armament
to Guard His Wealth.
History is vindicated, after all. for
General William T. Sherman, Civil
War leader and hero, really did soy
"War is hell."
The famous epigram has been quoted
all over the world and attributed to
General Sherman, but of late year
some historians have denied that Gen
eral Sherman ever hald "war is hell."
In the course of an interview yester
day on preparedness for National de
fense. Rev. Father Thomas Ewlng
Sherman, of St. Louis, eldest son of
General Sherman, said his father made
the utterance In a public address, and
related the circumstances.
"I do not remember the exact year,
said Father Sherman, "but it was in
the early '80s. and my father was ad
dressing: the graduating class of cadets
at a military school in Michigan. In
. the course of his address he told them
they had learned the duties of a sol
dier and would be ready if their conn
try ever needed them. Then he said
that he knew what war was, and hoped
they never would be called to war.
adding. "War is hell.'
"There can be no doubt that he said
It. When the definition was first at
tributed to him, X once denied it, but
soon afterward received a letter from a
man who had heard the address and
who gave me the exact language my
father used."
Father SherTnan looks strikingly like
the pictures of his father. He has the
same keen blue eyes, the same beard,
and he wears a black slouch hat much
of the same style. He arrived in Port
land Friday and has been staying at
Archbishop Christie's residence.
Though he had a hatred for war
that he does not hesitate to express.
Father Sherman is a firm believer in
the necessity of adequate prepared
ness for National defense.
"No matter what we may think as
Christian ministers," he said, "we must
see and admit that the world Is ruled
by force. Both groups of warring na
tions in the present world war have
overleaped all laws without regard to
the rights of others. We, in the United
States, haven't been in a position to
enforce laws of nations because we
are not in a position to back up our
demands.
"What is the situation in this coun
try? Why, here we are, massing up
wealth and piling up golds without
thought of defending ourselves. That
is only a temptation to another nation
to come and take away our wealth.
Nations should be kept from tempta
tion just as-individuals should be kept
from it.
"Christ himself said that the strong
man when he is fully armed keeps his
court, but when the stronger man
cometh he taketh it away. The indi
vidual man is not strong unless he is
armed to keep his cottage from the
wolf and the savage, and nations are
governed by the Bame rules as indi
viduals. CZAR is LIVING SIMPLY

others of the temporary court.
"At 9 o'clock in the morning the

accompanied by one of his officers.
With General Alexieff, chief of staff,

TODAY'S BEAUTY
SUGGESTIONS
ace pvwaer simpry covers up an
unattractive complexion and leaves no
lasting benefits. Those who have tried
a simple spurmax face lotion find it
much better, as it removes skin dis-
coloratlons, such as freckles and tan.
and makes the skin smooth, white and
velvety. This lotion is made by dlssolv
ing four ounces of spurmax in one-
half pint hot water, then adding two
teaspoonfuls glycerin. This complexion
beautlfler does not rub off or show like
powder, and gives a more refined ap
pearance. It removes both Bhininess
and sallowness, rapidly giving the skin
a permanent healthy, youthful appear
ance.
An especially fin shampoo for this
weather can be had at trifling expense
by dissolving a teaspoonful of can
throx in a cup of hot water. Pour slow
ly on scalp and massage briskly. This
creates a soothing, cooling lather that
dissolves and removes all dandruff,
excess oil and dirt. Rinsing leaves the
scalp spotlessly clean, soft and pliant.
while the hair takes on a glossy rich
ness of natural color, also a flufflness
which makes it seem very much heavier
than it is. After a canthrox shampoo
arranging the hair is a pleasure.

discussion of topics as scheduled on a
formal programme. Pennants will be
given as rewards for merit shown in
the parade which will be a feature of
the gathering.
GIRL'S FRIEND TESTIFIES
AXFRETJ IJT D BLOOM SAYS HE WAS
ENGAGED TO ANNA ANDERSON.
iblllty for Coadltioa Admitted,
at Him IaformatloB Is Guarded
by Prtitcntion.
Full responsibility was taken by Al
fred Lindbloom. a logger, for the con
ditlon of Anna Anderson, the -irl who
died in the office of Dr. A. A. Ausplund
last Friday, in a statement which Lind
bloom made yesterday at the District
Attorney's office. Lindbloom said that
ne was engaged to marry her. He
declared tnat she had spoken of hav
ing such an operation as that which,
according to the verdict of the Coro
ner's Jury, caused her death performed
oeiore tney became nusband and- wife.
The District Attorney's office would
not grve out a full summary of Lind
bloom's statement for the reason, it
was said, that he had divulged infor
matlon which might be so handled as
to become valuable evidence against
Dr. Ausplund, who has been held for
grand Jury action on a manslaughter
cnarge.
Li abloom, who was brought in from
Buxton, Or., by the Rev. J. Richard
Olson, pastor of the church of which
relatives of the dead girl are mem
bers, readily admitted having received
letters from the girl, but said that he
had destroyed them as fast- as read
for fear that they might become public
property in the narrow confines of a
logging camp bunkhouae. What he
stated from memory as to the contents
of any such letters Special Investigator
ueren, or tne District Attorney s office,
would not reveal.
Dr. A. A. Ausplund, who appeared
in Municipal Court yesterday morning
charged' with manslaughter, waived
preliminary examination, and the case
will now go over to the grand Jury.
Dr. Ausplund pleaded guilty in 1913
to - a charge of using the mails for
carrying information relative to ille
gal operations, and was fined $100 in
Federal Judge Bean's court.

Sight, Taste and Smell
Make Appetite
The Logic of Hot Steero
Food must look good or
you don't want it. '
It must smell good or you
won't eat it.
It must taste good or you
won't like it.
Anything to eat or drink
that looks, smells and tastes
good is going to give you an
appetite if it's time for you
to eat
That s the way a cup of
Hot Steero makes people
hungry. ,
Its fragrant steam greets
their nostrils with a promise.
Its taste is a delicious combi
nation of the flavors of beef,
vegetables and spices. Drink
it down and then you can eat.
The good effects of a hot
drink are well known. The
influence of smell and taste
. on appetite and digestion are
everywhere recognized.
Stem has them all. Hot Steero
is made by simply dropping a
Steero Cube into a cup and
pouring on boiling water.
