Ashland, Oregon Wanted Ashland To Have Subscription In the report of the subscriptions to the Third Liberty loan the $5, 000 should have been credited to W. (J. Sanderson instead of W. C. Saund ers. Mr. Sanderson was a former well known Ashland man who resides now in Petaluma, Cal.

Twenty-flv for 6 cents. 101 tf People's Forum The Two Armings Tes, she had pledged heself to as sist in serving meals to the boys on the passing troop trains; that was in February, however, and here It was May. May, the month of planting, house cleaning, getting out of Bummer clothes and-moth-balling winter ones. Then there was the extra things these days; the time for Red Cross work, the little garments for Bel gians. Every day It seemed a new and pressing need called on her and her sister women for extra time and service. But she prided herself on keeping her word and her word was out for this meal serving. She was glad of one thing, however, she hadn't pledged to assist at breakfast and there was to be two 6:30 ones this first round. Among the crowd of busy women she took her place for the serving of the first meal a noon-day one. The women of her town were noted for their ease in serving large crowds but somehow a nervous tension hung about the serving of this first meal, a pension all felt but no one voiced. At last they, marched in those boys pledged to protect her and the world from brutality to the last drop of blood in their young bodies. Th boy Beated third at her table re minded her of Mrs. A's boy he is j in France now. The blue-eyed chap, who' clasped her hand In Impetuous boy gratitude as heMold her the Jelly was juBt like mother's made her think of Jim B. Jim Is sailing an airplane over the enemies lines these days. Well, really now she hadn't thought it Just the proper thing to bring down jellies or canned fruits, of course, the club didn't ask it, but. that boy's hand clasp was worth a barrel of anything she had ever put up. She hoped some women "over there" would be good to our town boys "over there". What was that Mrs. C. was tell ing? A boy looked at Mrs. E. and paid, "You look like my mother," and he choked up and couldn't eat. Mrs. F. certainly was moving around as if she was enjoying her self. She couldn't be so overly happy because her boy left for France last month. The eyes of everyone seemed peep ing into the eyes of everyone else with an expression of hushed, happy, determined, equal-to-all-that-comes, and, "We will keep the homes fires burning". Why, everyone was busy clearing the tables and here she stood moon Ing( bless the heart of her, as if everyone present wasn't mooning In side if their hands were busy). Her hands fell to their task but her hear1 was thinking: "Now I will set th clock for 5 those breakfast mornings I'm sure glad I put up extra peaches; it was good of Mrs. G. to send in that canned fruit; how for tunate John and the children prefer red the dried fruit." And so the days went by until the last troop train pulled out. She was weary, yes, but hands and heart, typ leal American woman that she was, each with joyful self-abandonment had arisen to another service. P.S. This Isn't a really, truly straight to the event story, but, well every Martha of last week's meals to our soldier boys at Elks hall feels the heart of her nod an understand ing nod and way down in the place she feel the biggest, sweetest, un spoken things. She knows life has privileged her with a beautiful ad venture. i By Angelina. j I . la a r r I' f is No Trouble to Find What You Want in Men's Wear at an Exclusive Men's Wear Store New and Pretty Patterns inJde Shirts $1.25 and up Faultless line of Night Shirts and Pajamas 1.00 and up Everwear Socks, all colors 3 pairs for $1.00 Radium Socks, black, tan and gray '. 20c a pair Men's and Young Men's Separate Trousers in neat stripe, Worsted and Cassimeres 4.00 and 5.00 pair Just arrived this week a beautiful ine of light weight Silk and Wool Caps.. r1.00 and up to 1.75 ITCMELL & WHITTLE I'M The Men's Store Mr. and Mrs. Earle Isaacs and Miss Isaacs of Medford were Sunday visi tors of Mr., and Mrs. L.

Ashland Favorite Site For Hospital The arrival of Colonel L. P. Maus, department surgeon of the western department of the V. S. army, in Portland, has loosened the rumor that the government Is looking for a site on the Pacific coast for a general military hospital for the rehabilita tion of men who will return from Europe as the war continues.

In reply to Mr. Shinn's letter Col. Maus stated that it is the govern ment's Intention to-establish convel escent hospitals in different parts of the United States, and It Is possible that if suitable inducements were of fered at Ashland one might be estab lished In this vicinity. "I passed through your valley the other day and stopped for a few mo ments at the station," the colonel further stated In his letter. "I have passed through Ashland several times before and have always remembered the valley as a beautiful country.
