folks, A. llraiulaw nod family,
from Water Voliel, N. V.:
"Came thro (ieiirgia, touehiiig
nt Atlanta and then enme north
thro the Caroliiuls. Country
looks better farther North we
go. Timber getting larger. Lots
of cut Ion and melon pah lies.
Land rolling and hlightly marshy,
with lots of niosipiitoes. Ited
Cross met us at train nt Florence,
S. ('., mid marched up town,
where we enjoyed Red Cross
entertainment. Went thro N. ('.
in night. See few whites work
ing in (irlds all darkies. Woke
up in Virginia. Fussed thro Pur
liaui, where the tobacco factories
are located. Stopped nt Hieh
1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 , a beautiful place, lots of
iii.-inuf.ii luring and home of Lig
gett Myers, tobacco manufac
turers. Detrained nt Washing
ton, D. ("., nnd were fed dough
nuts ami coffee by the Ited Cross.
Stopped two hours. Saw the
airplane mail (Iyer start with
mail mid two passengers for N.
V. The White House is so it ov
erlooks a natural amphitheatre
on the I'liloiuac. The statute of
Freedom towers .'107 feet above
tin: esplanade. The treasury
building is 45Ux'2S0, and li stories
high, We passed thro Baltimore
and I'hilly. The farther north
we get the more it seems like
Orgon. All kinds of manufac
turing, and the girls wear cover
alls while working. When we
reached the suburbs of New
York were held there two hours,
nt Fast Hivcr, where the lied
Cross handed out cigarettes,
2,000 people being there. We
passed under the river tunnel in
to NVw York, nnd are here this

NURSE RECRUITS
This is to be a busy year for the
Woman's Committee, Council of
Defense, in this slate, anil the
lirst great national task delegat
ed to them by the national com
mittee is in assisting in recruiting
25,000 students for nurse train
ing schools. Oregon's quota in
this is to be 310, and the patriot
ism, strength and energy of that
organization in the slate will be
put to the lest in this campaign.
The United States must have
25,000 student nurses now to re
licve graduate nurses for work al
tin- front. Without mon- nurses,
graduate nurses cannot be xs
to l-'.u rope and our wounded no n
will sulfer for want of nursing
care. The government looks to
the Woman's Council of Defense
in this stale to supply our shart
of these nurses.
What is needed is the enroll
ment of the required number of
young women i nthis state be
tween the ages of lt and 3;,
iviug full high school training
wherever possible, nnd college
training preferably. Candidates
will not be refused, however, for
lack of having completed a high
school course, lor auovc an inc
government wants young women
of character, good health and
irood sense.
Furollment in this Nurses
Training Reserve means that the
young woman shall hold herself
in readiness until April I, 1919,
to take training -when she is of
fered an assignment in a training
school, unless she has in the
mciiatime entered other govern
ment service.
It is of great importance that
candidates shall enroll without
restriction as to the school so
that they may be placed where
the greatest need exists. There
fore, two groups will be enrolled:
Preferred and Deferred. The
preferred class, which docs not
limit its pledge for service, will
be assigned first and in offering
assignments all possible consid
eration will be given to prefer
ence stated. The deferred class
consists of persons who will ac
cept an assignment only when
their preferences are not.
The Committee on Nursing of
the Council of National Defense
will be responsible for calling
candidates to the civilian hospi
tals and the Surgeon General's
Olliee w ill call the candidates for
the Army school of nursing.
Those registering for both
schools will be placed on both
lists nnd w ill be called w here the
lirst need arises.
Thi' campaign is to be opened
on Monday, July 2it, and close
on the evening of August II.
Women who desire to do their
bit in this i;re.'it war will write at
once to Mrs. I.. W. Hyde, Hills-
boor, who is President of Wash
ington County Woman's Council
of National Defense, for enroll
ing application blanks.

Wheeler County.
Hy-aiiil-large it. was a mighty
line looking bunch of young men
perhaps as nifty a lot of fight
ers as one has yet seen in the
lr: ft list. Harry M. Saxton, son
of Mrs. A. W. Saxton, of below
Newton, who has seen service in
the past, was given charge of the
eulrainnient, nnd he had ten cor
porals to help him. The boys
listened to addresses by Mayor
John M. Wall, introductory, and
to Hon. AVm. G. Hare, who was
Hit! principal speaker. Mr. Hare
related the circumstances which
led up to the great conflict, ins
presentation was masterful, anil
he was iriven earnest attention.
The boys showed their spirit by
giving him hearty applause at tin
telling points.
The following have reported

later dale for induction:

Suppose you have read about it
now. Going over the top at
Cantigny. We certainly made
them wish they bad staved in

got the guy that got me in the
lome. Our regiment was the
first of the Americans to go over
the top. Whenever a Boelie
would cry "Kamerad" lit: woultl
get it. We showed them that we
were the real Americans and can
rout lliem. I also got a piece of
shrapnel in my leg. It isn't ser

today. Wish I could get some
real old Oregon cherries. Do ym

six months. Geo. never dreamt
would get to the trenches when I
started, eh? Guess was lucky to
