IDAHO CAMPAIGN PROPOSED Sliss liucilc Dan forth Writes Letter Tcllinjr of Trip AYlilrh Ex tended J "a st as I'ar as IsOlsc. 5Iis3 Lucile Danforth. formerly state nianager of the Oregon Girls' Honor Guard, who, as newly appointed Na tional organizer." is now -in Eastern Oregon visiting the various local Guards and assisting In organizing several, has written an interesting letter on the progress of Honor Guard at fail's .in that section of the state and the incidents of her visit. "My first stop- was in Bend, which at the time had no Honor Guard." writes Miss Danforth from ia Grande, 'and after arranging a meeting for the following evening I spoke to the high school girls and as many other girls of the town as possible and invited them to come to this meeting and learn more about the Honor Guard and also form an organization there. There were about 73 or 80 girls present at this meeting, most of whom took the pledge f the Honor Guard, and a local Guard was established with the following of ficers: Miss Ksther Jane Clark, leader: Mrs. X. F. Tteed, assistant leader; Miss Margaret Wiest, secretary: Miss Mar garet Schreder, treasurer, and Miss Mary linster, sergeant-at-arms. "All of the girls were most enthusi astic about the Honor Guard and only too anxious to make their organization one of the finest in the state. From Bend I traveled by stage 150 miles across the high desert to Burns, where 3 was met by Miss Drusllla Dodson, leader of the Honor Guard of that city, and delightfully entertained in her home during my short stay there. I talked to the girls of the Burns Honor Guard in the afternoon and then Miss Oodson drove 40 miles to Crane, which is the terminus of the nearest railroad. The girls in Burns have un dertaken to knit a complete outfit. eweater. muffler and wristlets, for each boy who has left'that town to 'pro into ter-ice. as their Christmas sift to them. "From Crane I went to Vale; where 1 tnet the girls in the Honor Guard and found that they were planning to give a. Christmas box to each .of the boys who have left their town. This box will contain a. miniature fruit cake, baked In a tea canister; also some candies and salted nuts. My next stop waa at Ontario, where I found a wide-awake and enthusiastic Guard. In fact, all of the girls are beginning to realize more definitely that joining the Honor Guard means that their services are required for some particular work, and so, of course, some few who Joined because of the novelty of the organization are dropping out and. indeed, are being re quested to drop out, leaving only earn est and sincere workers. "While In Ontario I received a wire ennouncing my appointment as Na tional organizer for this section of the country, so I immediately decided to go to Boise and start the nucleus or Girls National Honor Guard of Idaho, While there I appointed Mrs. Norman C Beeklev state manager of Idaho Mrs. Allen Stine. state secretary, and Vlls Clara. Holoomb. state treasurer. Mrs. Beeklev. who was formerly Miss Hazel Kuttz. is auite well known in Portland. A local Boise Honor Guard was also formed, with Miss Esther iuvIr as leader. 'When I left Boise clans were in progress to launch a re cruitlng campaign for members, open an office for state headquarters and to give a, huge benefit to provide funds with which to supply each man in serv ice with a. litla Christmas remembrance from the girls. "Although there has been no Honor Ruard in Idaho up to this time the girls are keenly Interested in the or .rv.ni-7.il flnn and expect to show Ore iron whafs what when they get fairly started in the work. Prom Boise rame back into Oregon and stopped in vtker. where I found the girls na rioinir really splendid work in helping the Red Cross, and also In pro vidlng relief for some of the suffer rs from the Sumuter fire. I am now ir La Grande and will talk to the t-lrls tonight Miss Nora M. Arbuckle, farmer leader of the Honor Guard here, is entertaining me in her home. "I exnert to go to Enterprise tomor row and then come back to L,a Grande then go to Pendleton, and from there to Walla Walla, where I will organize nn. Unnrtr Guard. On my way bac to Portland I will stop at Hermiston and The Dalles. Soon after returnin to Portland 1 will leave for wasning ton. where I hope to establish state headquarters for the Honor Guard in Seattle and bind the different local guards in an organized state body, as are the guards of Oregon. "livery city in which I have visited I find that the Honor Guard has an enviable reputation for efficiency and service, and the demands upon the or ganization are growing every day. Just at present the efforts of all Honor Guard members are being turned to ward assisting in the liberty loan cam paign." - EXTRA! GIRL KEEPS SECRET Slie Is a Bride and It Is That Fact That She Conceals Three Weeks Miss Dalsv Chalmers, for a number of rears employed at the Multnomah County Courthouse by the Abstract Tl tie Company, has disproved the oft marie assertion that a woman cannot keen a secret. Three weeks ago she nd Elmer Christenson. a young busi i ness man of this city, quietly slipped over to Kalama. Wash., where they were married. On the following day i they returned to Portland and resumed ' -nrlc t their resucctive places ol em ployment. keeping the important affair abaolutelv to themselves. In fact, their marriare was not revealed by either ; until yesterday, when Mrs. Christenson 1 failed to report for work at the Court house, sending a substitute Instead.

SIXDELAR. who will be at gr'"' J" J the Hetlig October 25-2B-27 In V' "Potash and Perlmutter in So- W- J J 4 -j $ ciety." has indorsed the campaign j 1 d, ' against late suppers by the theatrical J ' rofession. Miss Sindelar says tnat i -v. v. df .ffX hundreds of stage folk are serving France and England, both in the trenches and behind the line, and that abroad the women of the profession are doing their share of war work. "Let it not be believed that the peo ple of the American stage, men and women, will fall behind their European brothers and sisters in sacrifice," said Miss Sindelar recently. I expect to see the young men of our stage send their full proportion of sol diers to the front, and the women of the stage will work as hard as any other women in the world to help win the Nation's battles. The first thing that should be done is to abolish ex travagance from living. Wine suppers and course meals are all very well in peace time, but now that the Nation is short of food, we must all econo mize." It is interesting to know that Mon- tagu Glass, the author of the Potash and Perlmutter stories and collaborator with Roi Cooper Megrue in the stage writing of "Potash and Perlmutter In Society." Ftudied his characters at first hand, while a young lawyer in New York City. In fact, the author now admits that he was often more inter ested in his clients than In their trou bles and that it was the literary possi bilities rather than the legal probabili ties that attracted him during his serv ice at the bar. Mr. Glass had what is known as a "commercial" practice and among his patrons were many "Abes" and "Maw russes," but he insists that his Potash and Perlmutter. and most of the others, are all composite characters. MYRTLE TO BE SHOWN COQl'lLLG PLANS ATTRACTIVE LA.VD SHOW EXHIBIT. First Peara and Apples for Show Here From Rocuc River Valley Wool Here From Morrow. The Commercial Club of Coquille is making a strenuous effort to send to the Land Show at Portland, which: opens November 3, a beautiful display of myrtle wood, manufactured into fur niture novelties by plants that have been developed in Coquille for the pur pose. A display of this beautiful wood was sent to the San Francisco expo sition and won for Oregon the repu tation of having the highest grade of hardwood in the country so far as finish is concerned. Coquille is in the center of the myrtle belt and an effort being made to place tne nigmy finished novelties in all of the exclusive markets in the country. Some of this wood has been used in furniture manu- acturing in Portland, but it is so hard hat special machinery is necessary to work it. From the Rogue River Valley comes the first shipment of pears and apples or the Land Show. D. M. Lowe, of Ashland, has sent to Portland his dis play of pears and apples for cold stor age in preference to allowing them to remain at Medford. Mr. Lowe expects to carry away his full share of prizes in the fruit classes. Hood P.iver and Mosier will have displays to compete, particularly in apples. W. W. Smead, of Heppner, has sent to Portland his display of wool, from Morrow County, the center of the wool industry in Central Oregon. Mr. Smead claims to have the best quality of wool that he has ever taken to a show, and he has had charge of the Morrow County exhibits for a number of years. F. Schmidt, of Roseburg. is sending a large exhibit of prunes, both fresh and dried, showing the importance o the fruit industry in Douglas County. FORMER ORKSHAM MAX NOW 1 FRANCE. . : . t ?

OREGON SALES CO. 434 Alder St. Almost everyone knows that Saga Tea and Sulphur, properly compounded, brings back the natural color and luster to the hair when faded, streaked or gray. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make it at home, which is mussy and troublesome. Nowadays we simply ask at any drugstore for "Wyeth's Sage and Sul phur Compound." You will get a large bottle of this old-time recipe improved by the addition of other ingredients for about 50 cents. Everybody uses this preparation now, because no one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair, as it does it so naturally and evenly. You dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through, your hair, taking one small strand at a time: by morning the gray hair disap pears, and after another application or two. your hair becomes beautifully dark, thick and BlossV and you look years younger. wyeiirs saga and Sulphur Compound is a delightful toilet requisite.
