PORTLAND, NOVEMBER 4, 1917. s Qualified lumbermen Chosen for "Work in France Technical Force of Experienced Men Selected for Commissions. It ts announced by the Forest Serv ice that tt has been able to comply In full with the request of the War De partment for assistance in securing qualified lumbermen and foresters to serve as officers for the forest bat talions which are to comprise a part of the American overseas forces. Three hundred and nine men have been rec ommended for commissions in the grades of Major. Captain, First Lieu tenant and Second Lieutenant. Of these, two-thirds are practical lum bermen or sawmill operators and one third are trained foresters with lon woods' experience. Some of the lum bermen who were recommended have also had theoretical training in fores try and many of the foresters have had experience in logging or sawmill lng. In the selection of qualified) lumber men the Forest Service has had the close co-operation of a sub-committee of the lumber committee of the Council of National Defense and of 14 com mittees of lumbermen in different parts of the country. Almost every man se lected was interviewed by a lumber men's committee or by the. Forest Serv ice officials. Many private foresters and forest schools have assisted in finding technical foresters suitable for commissions. All of the men recom mended have, by successful experience, Bhown themselves capable of handling eome Important phase of lumbering, sawmill or technical forest work, ac cording to officials of the Forest Serv ice. All have proved by experience their qualities of leadership and their ability to handle men in large num bers. Every timber region of the United Etates has contributed its share of the men who have been nominated for of ficers and it Is believed that every class of lumbering, from the smallest portable mill operation to the largest and most up-to-date plant, is repre sented. Among those selected are men -experienced in logging and sawing "every merchantable wood growing in this country. The age limits set In the beginning required that all officers of the forest battalions should be 31 years. of age, or older. Because.of the difficulty of finding men suitable for Lieutenants, the age limit for this grade was later lowered to 25 years. The bulk of the men recommended ' as Lieutenants range in age from 25 to 35, as Cap i tains from 30 to 40, and as Majors ' from 40 to 50. Men who have been recommended have been notified that all further ac , tlon as regards physical examinations the Issuance of commissions and the ! order In which the- successful appli cants will be called for service rests With the War Department. lumitmimiimmimiimimiMiimmimiimmiuimiimiimii'imm: - .MOUNT ANGEL BOYS FROLIC Huge Bonfire, Songs, Speeches and , Stunts Take Vp Night, MOUNT ANGEL COLLEGE.

No Protests Filed Against Application ' to Drop Some Runs and Re route Others. While the City Council has withheld action until the proposal can be rone into in detail, It is probable that the request of the Portland Railway. Llcht & Power Company for permission to discontinue operation of some of its present duplicated or .unnecessary lines will be granted. The Council will go over the lines in question early this week. So far there has been no complaint against the discontinuance of any of the lines involved in the company's proposition. It is figured that objection can come from only one of the lines, and that is the Murraymead sub. Dis continuance of this will require some people to walk an additional five or blocks to reach a line. lo complaint has been made by Murraymead resi dents as yet, however. The company proposes to discontinue the Thlrteenth;Street line, but will cov er the same -territory by rerouting Sun- nyside cars. It proposes to discontinue the Fulton service north of Grant street, operating Fulton cars over the North and South Portland line, in stead. This would place the Fulton cars on Third street Instead of on Sec ond street as at present. Other lines proposed to be discon tinued include the following: Fast Twenty-eighth street from Bast Gllsan to Weldler street; Twenty-seventh street from Thurman to Upshur streets; Upshur- street from Twenty-fifth to Twenty-seventh streets: Twenty-fifth street from Thurman to Upshur streets. SACKED POTATOES STOLEN Cottage Grove Man -Also Threatened With Having House Burned. COTTAGE GROVE, Or., Nov. 3. (Special.) A thief visited Edward Tur- pin's potato patch Tuesday night. Mr, xurpin naa worKeti until he could no longer see the hills in an endeavor to get his crop harvested, and did not have time to put the sacks away. Wednesday morning when he went to the field he found that two sacks of the tubers were, missing. On another sack a card had been attached on which had been scrawled, "Your house I will burn Nov. 4. Your potatoes have been stole." A fictitious name was signed to the car. Evidently the thief had fallen with one of the sacks, and rather than go to the trouble of picking up the po tatoes he went back and took antoher sack, leaving the first one where he had dropped it. Mr. Turpin was not much worried by the threat to burn his house, but he would make it warm for the thief should he discover him.

Debate try-outs were held at Eeed College on Monday evening to select a team to compete with the University oi Washington in the annual intercol legiate debate, which will take place on Friday evening, December 7. The debaters chosen were: John Levin, Samuel Weinsteln, Harry Kennin and Stephen Mathleu. The subject for the debate Is, "Resolved, That at the con clusion of the present war, the nations of the world should establish an Inter national supreme court, supported by an international constabulary to en force Its decrees." Unlike all intercollegiate debates con ducted so far. the decision is to be on the merits of the question and not on the merits of the debate. There are to be no judges selected and the decision is to be left to the entire audience. Another new feature is that the de baters are to be bound by no formal rules. Each speaker is expected to do whatever he thinks suitable and there will be no definite time limit. Both de bates are to be held in Tacoma. one at the Stadium High School, and the other at the Lincoln Park High School. The debaters will be coached by President W. T. Foster, Professor Rob ert D. Leigh, and Professor Paul H. Douglas. Informal debates will be con ducted at the college during the sev eral weeks previous to the deciding contest. Attendance Shows Decrease.
