LETTER NO. 31.
LE MANS, France. Gordon J. Tay
lor of Mollala, Oregon, the "Y"
lecturer on "Dad," has Just returned
from two months with the army of oc
cupation in Germany. I met him as
we were leaving Paris and we came to
Le Mans together and with Miss Tom
linson of the "Y" lecture bureau. We
gave a "double header" program at
Salvage camp in a tent which held
about 200 boys. "Dad"- is an interest
ing lecture, good and witty, keeping
the boys in a gale of laughter.
I have run into a bunch of Oregon
men here. Will Warren, formerly of
the Oregonian, who is now publicity
man for the Y. M. C. A.; O. L. Ferris,
who is business director and secre
tary of the Le Mans area; L. A. Alder
man, who is with the army educa
tional commission, now lecturing in
this area; Rex H. Lampman, who is
Just leaving for Paris, here he is to be
on the staff of the Stars and Stripes,
the army newspaper: Charles E. Len
nor, attorney of Portland, who is now
back from his "leave" and because ot
his previous good work will be as
signed a good position here, and W. E.
Bayles of McMinnville, who is making
good in his work In the camps here.
I have also met H. L. Gilkie of Grants
Pass, who is here temporarily in the
P. O. He goes to Paris in a few days
to work in the "sightseing depart
ment." Mr. Gilkie has three sons in
the army. Lieutenant H. J. Gilkie is
in Paris in the food commission: Ser
geant E. C. Gilkie is at Camp Upton.
N. Y.. and Corporal W. K. Gilkie is
stationed at St. Nazaire, France.
When Gordon J. Taylor gave his lec
ture on "Dad" at the Polish camp, of
course not many of them could under
stand him. but a young English-speaking
Pole told us that before midnight
every man of the 300 in the camp would
know all that he had said. Those that
did understand would tell the rest. To
night I gave my bird slides and the
Oregon movies for the third time at
this camp, with an interpreter, to an
equally enthusiastic crowd. There are
a new lot of Poles Just in from a pris
on camp. They are Austrian Poles who
were forced into the German army and
'then captured by the French. After
being prisoners for 17 months, they
are now being re-outfitted by the
French and will be cent home to Poland.
It is a rare treat to hear them sing their
native songs.
WAGES OF MINERS RAISED

The action was taken at a meeting
oT the principal operators held in Wal
lace Monday. Xo official announce
ment was made following the meeting,
according to report from Wallace, but
bulletins posted at the various mines
announced the raise taking effect at
once.
