Men of th 66th field artillery brig ade, of which the old Oregon cavalry is a part, recently received the personal thanks of General John J. Pershing and the corps commander. Colonel P. H. Worcester, on their enviable record of five months' continuous service at the front and the neat and soldierly appear ance they made at Hohr, Germany, on the visit of the commander-in-chief, March 16. "This brigade vas always to be de pended upon when in the region of the Marne and the Aisne rivers in the St. Mihiel battle and the Meuse-Argonne offensive," said General Pershing after he reviewed the men. "It supported our rallant infantry in many a pitched battle and this duty so well performed will always be a source of pride to each and every member of the brigade." General Pershing's tribute to the brigade was followed by a letter from corps commander. Colonel P. H. Wor cester, complimenting the men upon their excellent appearance and the rep utation they have established. Irksome Talk Performed. "This brigade has an enviable record of over five months' continuous serv ice on the line," said Colonel Wor cester. "The satisfactory manner in which it has thus far successfully ac complished its irksome and vexatious duty as a part of the army of occupa tion has called forth favorable com ment from all its higher commanders. Let every member of the brigade, by his neat and soldierly appearance, main tain that reputation which will always uo a source of satisfaction to us when our duty is done." Copies of The Long Range Sniper containing the letters have been for warded to The Oregonian by Corporal Waldo C. Stout, battery C, H8th field artillery, with an interesting letter in which Corporal Stout expresses the American soldier's longing to get home with an earnestness which is only to be compared with his impatience to get overseas when war was declared. Soldiers Are Ioaesome There are strict orders here against fraternizing with the Germans, but under the billeting arrangement it is impossible to prevent some undue friendliness," writes Corporal Stout. "The men gat lonesome and often wel coirte an opportunity to visit with the people with whom they are billeted, es pecially when they are young anil of the opposite sex. Some of us came here with a knowledge of the Gorman lan guage, but it is surprising the amount that has been acquired by those who were ignorant of it a few months ago. As long as we are human I -guess we will fraternize, not with the boche by choice, but it will be with whoever we are thrown in with so for the love of Mike get us home so we can frater nize with human beings again. The last time I passed Fifth and Washing ton streets a man was earnestly shout ing to the crowd: 'You're needed over there. You must go if this is to be a safe place to live in,' and we went, most of this brigade as volunteers, but I did not hear the rrfan say we were to stay forever, and inasmuch as we did go. Please, somebody, get up on a box and get us back. "Naturally everyone wants 'home and mother," but I Buppose we must wait until the 'present emergency' has passed and that won't be until some one ranking higher than a buck private ays so. The rank and file believe that it has, and whether or not, the troops of the third army are those who have been on foreign service longest, the veterans who have been in all the big American battles and it is natural that they should feel that they should be permitted to go home and if there is need for troops, let those who serve in the regular army or those who have not had so strenuous work, who ar rived here toward the close of the war take their places. Willamette River Trip Preferred. "The civilians have an institution called "kaffedrinken something like the British '5 o'clock tea' and 'put out' what they havs to the Americans with commendable generosity. Most of them haven't much but they chare willingly apparently. There have been very few quarrels with the German people. They no doubt would have been just as well pleased had we not been able to get here, but since we have their outward attitude has been one of decided friend liness. "We are given trips up the Rhine and to other Interesting places that few Americans have opportunity to visit during their lives. Still there are some who are not so strong for seen ery. The day I took the trip up -the Jlhine some of the boys had to be awakened from a sound sleep and noti fied that the trip was over. They had curled up on the Cushions down by the engine-room and X guess enjoyed the trip as well as the rest of us. I heard another remark that he would rather 'cruise down the Willamette on the Uailey Gatzert past the Willamette Iron work and the overall factory" than this."

"The Roaring Road" is an extremely suitable title for Wallace Reid's latest Paramount picture, adapted from the Saturday Evening Post automobile rac ing story involving Toodles, the Cub and the Bear-hero, his sweetheart, and er father. It's a romance of love. whirring wheels and business rivalry, with gasoline and flying dust atmo- phere. ally, as the daredevil Toodles, wins the heroine's hand and smashes former records to smithereens in one of the most spectacular races ever filmed, and incidentally gets- a lot of pleasing com edy out of the role. The hurricane climax of the picture will not be easily forgotten by those who witness it. Speeding autos are familiar sights enough on taie screen, but seldom has swiftly-driven machine ewayed. leaped and virtually flown through space with such effect as that with which the ambitious Toodles hurls him self forward to his goal. The race with the train is a pictorial triumph in every way it holds the spectators' actually erlse in their seats and registers as a wonderful bit of realism. The feature's sentimental appeal lies In the aspirations of the humble hero to the affections of his wealthy em ployer's daughter, the sort of thing which always awakens a. screen audi ence's sympathies. Reid is -splendid as the hero, Ann Little plays the part of he much-desired maiden in graceful fashion, while Theodore Roberts gives wonderful impersonation of Ward, the crusty old motor magnate.
