Work Offered Legion Men. More

hand at the executive offices of the
American Legion employment head
quarters in Liberty temple. A num
ber of men are out of work because
of physical disability and positions
have not been found for them. The
explanation of the situation is that
married men, out of work, do not care
to leave home and go to employment
out of the city. On the other hand,
incapacitated former service men out
of works cannot take the places be
cause of inability to fill them. A
solution is being worked out by

C. V. Groshong, druggist, pleaded
guilty to the unlawful sale of drugs

Groshong was charged with the sale

new 1919 state law.
Charges against the druggist were
made by H. F. Mclnturff of the state

The court was inclined to be lenient

the new law.

other prosecutions were likely to fol
low in case druggists do not comply
with the law.

When Jack
Bean Stalk
He set a permanent record for long-distance agility, whrle all
agricultural records forever and a day were eclipsed by the pro
digious growth of that most remarkable vine. But there are folk
today who do assert that the fairy bean stalk is a mere sprout in
romparison with the dynamic upward trend of living costs during
the past several years.
To secure accurate information on increased costs of living, as
they have affected individual families during the six-year period,
1914 to 1919, inclusive, The Sunday Oregonian offers two cash
awards each week for the best letters upon the subject:
"THE HIGH COST OF LIVING IN OUR HOME"
Offering Weekly Prizes
FIRST, $10; SECOND, $5
The following general rules will apply to the contest:
1 In terms of cash give lump sums expended during the six-year
period, by individual years, or by direct comparison of 1914 with
1919, for the following items: Food, rent, fuel, shoes, clothing.
2 Percentages of increase should not be employed. Give as
nearly as possible exact annual expenditures for the Individual
items, showing by comparison the Increased cash outlay for actual
living expenses.
3 Limit manuscripts to 750 words or less. Value of data given
will be considered above mere literary merit.
4 Give full name and address, for information of the contest
editor, though same will be withheld from publication if requested.
5 State number In family for each comparative year, rating as
adults all over 16 years of age.
6 Write plainly in ink or typewriter on one side of the sheet
only, and address all letters to "Contest Editor, The Oregonian,
Portland. Or." Right is reserved by the contest editor to use all
manuscripts.
From the information thus gathered The Sunday Oregonian, at
an early date, will publish weekly the two prize winners and other
meritorious letters.
Information on costs of other items such as travel, medicine,
fihysician's care, or any expenditure that lias increased, may be
ncluded in the letters, but the main comparative information should
be confined to the five items named in the rules of contest.
