Therefore, I will work, I will 4 save, I will sacrifice, 1 will cn 4 dure, I will fight cheerfully and to my utmost as If tlie outcomo of the strugslo depends upon me alone." Amaze French By Military Fitness Mothers and sweethearts msy have g'jod grounds for f ik that their toys may not return from Franco, or at least come back unencumbered, If the stories of their reception by the French people are true. France seems to have received the Yankees vlth open arms, and classes every mother's son In tho United States uniform as a hero. As an Illustration of tills hero wor chip on the part of the French peo- p'e for the Yankee soldiers, David W. Hazen, the special correspondent for the Portland Telegram, who is with the Oregon boys In France, tells in the Portland Telegram of the ovation given to the Ameri cans at the celebration on Castile day, July 14: The grand parade and the dedica tion of the Pont Wilson, the beaut! ful new white bridge named In honor of the American president, took place in the forenoon of July 14. The 'Yankees led the parade. The com panies were In column fours, two companies abreast; the Oregon "route steppers" formed one of the advance companies. Every man look ed as If he had Just come out of a band-box, and every enlisted man In the Beaver company was smooth thaven with the exception of Ser fccant C. II. Henrys, former city en gineer of Seaside, who wore the stuli by, brick colored mustache ho brought to France. A yell went up the instant the crowd caught sight of the olive drab. Men shouted and women applauded, waved handkerchiefs and threw flow ers; along many of the streets the Yankees marched over almost solid carpets of roses, while hundreds of bouquets were thrown from upper Ktory windows. One could easily Im agine it was Lyons' own favorite reg iment come home from victorious wars. A tiny tot not more than 1 years old at most ran out In the street with a shower of roses bigger than hereelf; she tried to give them to the lieutenant colonel, but could not catch him, so handed it to one CHICHESTER S PILLS .DIAMOND BRAND r - a yr UranM for CHI-CHESTER 8 A 1)IAMUND JiKAND PU.LS in Kfd taijS, Cold metallic boxw, tr.ltd with Blurt Ribbon.

Dut with all this whoop and hur- iali, with girls as pretty as can be foimd wanting to give flowers and smiles, with airplanes looping right overhead, the thousand Yankees marched as though on their own pa rade ground miles from any crowd. They marched with fixed bayonets, ( deli row of oitiht glistening like a single saber In the sunlight; viewed from any angle the lines were per fect. Mess Sergeant 12. R. Snyder, it ho did not have to march, saw the parade from a balcony window where l.c was surrounded by a Lyons physi cian, his wife and three daughters. The sergeant spared a minute to look at the troops, and he declares that I hey made a perfect line.

FISH ON FRIDAYS. OYSTERS AND CRABS IN' SEASON, James Barrett, Prop. Phone 188, Iyons physician, his wife and three blighters told the Portlander that It was the finest military exhibition they had ever seen. When the Yankees crossed the Pont Wilson they were led by the I rigadier general commanding this c'lvislon. And here also the lines were as exact as though laid out by n civil engineer. But on the other ?lde of the bridge the crowds were ho dense that the men had to marcl through In columns of twos. Here t'ipy were so showered with flowers that each man looked like Fred V. Hotmail's rose garden marching up the street. But the great test of American mil itary training came at the review. The men were lined up and ordered tc "present arms." Then a squadron or airplanes began cutting up capers 'ilrectly overhead; the aviators drop ped flowers, then did all sorts of fancy sky steps. But those darned Yanks Just stood there, every man's eyes looking straight ahead; not once did a man glance up to see what was Colng on above them; not once did one of them look to the side to see If h!s partner was standing straight. And they Btood this way for fully 15 minutes while the Croix de Guerre as being pinned on the tunics of numerous French heroes. The French officers were simply dumbfounded. The officers of other nations who were present could not understand It, either. But It did not rurprlse the American officers, for Ley know exactly what their boys will do. It's all the same to Buddie, parade ('round or battlefield; where he Is supposed to stand at attention, he i kinds there like a post; when jt 13 time to fight, he, to use his own term, "fights like hell." And then they were given liberty. Well, say, there were British and Italian and French soldiers also in tr.e parade, but it seemed that every girl In Lyons had her heart set on capturing a Yankee. There was an vncven ratio of about 100 to 1. This liberty extended from noon on Stfli day until 11 o'clock Monday fore 1 oon. Every mun was back at the hlUet f t 11. There was no bolster ciisness, and the fine Impression left by these lads will make the charming citizens of that bonnie place Ion? fer the return of the "route step boys" from Oregon and elsewhere. New Wheat Rul n Are EBads Liberal' -Mnio.t a wholesale rescinding anii aii'cndlng of wlieat regulations has been made by the 1'nlted States food administration, following the returu of Herbert C. Hoover from London v here he was in conference with food officials of . England, France atd Italy. Tho 50-50 basis for the pur chase of wlieat has been changed to a 20-SO basis, that Is, 20 per cent i.uhstitute to SO per cent wheat flour. Mills of tho country are requested to turn out a supply of ready mixed flour, thus eliminating the necessity of the retailers baking combination sales of flour and substitutes. This regulation mixture is to be labeled Victory flour and tho proportions of Ingredients will be signified. "The new regulations affect the householder, retailer, wholesaler and millers alike and should be carefully studied," said W. B. Ayer in explain ing the changes. "No bread, pfe crust, cake or any other edible In which wheat flour 13 used must be mixed or baked with out the required portion of substi tute flour or meal. A strict observ hnce of the regulation is expected in all households." The complete statement as receiv ed from Mr. Hoover, follows: "The recent careful survey of the food administrators of the United Plates, France, England and Italy of tne food resources of the 220,000, 000 people fighting against Germany shows that to maintain enough sup plies and necessary reserves against disaster there must be maintained In all countries a conservation of wlieat flour during the coming year U has been agreed that the wheat bread of allies shall contain 20 per cent other grains than wheat, and It is'only just that we should bear our shnre In this saving and our bread should be at least universal witn those who are suffering more greatly from the war than ourselves. "Distribution and transportation circumstances In tho United States ipnder It necessary to rely very large ly on volunteer action In our homes to enforce this mixture. The Victory bread so made Is wholesome and there Is no difficulty In preparation. Learn to Get Along Without Sugar It has been done before. A hundred years ago re-, lined sugar was unknown. Our ancestors used honey and you can use honey also. Besides there are syrups. Th$ natural sugars of fruits will serve today as they did cen turies ago. You will get all the sugar you need in this way. The Allies do it now. England, which before the war used more sugar than we did, has but two pounds per head a month now ; France one and a half pounds, and Italy only one. Show yourself a patriotic American and use less than your ration. This i3 but a slight sacri fice as compared with all that the Allies are doing. Do it yourself. ' 1 We desire to emphasize the fact that the mixtures outlined below are for v heat bread and the saving of wheat flour, but they are not Intended to displace the large use of corn bread. V'e must use the mixture with wlieat flour in addition to our normal con sumption or corn bread. "For tills purposo regulations are fT-mulated below, effective Septem ber 1, providing first, for the prepar ation and marketing by the manu facturing and distributing trades of the country of a mixed flour comply ing with the International policy ".hlch will be available for purchase by tho household. "Second, In regulations covering the case where straight wheat flour is sold by retailers that at the same time 20 per cent of other cereal fiours must bo sold coincidental!)-. "Third, requiring that all bakers bread shall contain 20 per cent of othr cereals, and the food adminis tration relies upon the householders of the country to mix at least 20 per cent of the substitute cereals into the wheat flour at home for all uses. Corn meal for use of corn bread 'Jiould lie purchased separately from combination sales. "It is desired to insure supply of ready mixed flours on thn market Hid to have millers and dealers of ail l:ads encourage use and 1 ale of Mils Lour so that the country may be on a mixed flour brsU without the m: csslty of retailers making combina tion sales of flour and substitutes. Aii. such mixed flours made accord ing to the following rule? and regu lations should be labelej Victory mixed flour, and are to be labeled wth the Ingredients in order to their proportions. "The flours so mixed titist be mill el In accordance with the standards of the United States food adminis tration. "No mixed flours (except pancake flours) shall be made or manufac tured except In the exact proportions us outlined below: "Mixed wlieat and barley flour (.hall be in the proportion of four pounds of wheat flour to one pound of barley flour. "Mixed wheat and corn flour shall contain the proportion of four pounds of wheat flour to one pound of corn flour. "Mixed wheat, barley and corn fiour shall contain the proportions of eight pounds of wheat flour to one pound of barley flour and one pound of corn flour. "Mixed wheat and rye flour shall contain the proportion of three pounds of wheat flour and not less than two pounds of rye flour. "Whole wheat, entire wheat or graham fiour or meal shall contaiu at least 95 per cent of the wheat berry. "All the above Victory mixed flour ITRCIIASES made through mail or der houses never benefit the com munity and seldom satisfy the indl ldual.

"The new regulations supersede the 50-50 rule. j "The retail dealer selling standard I wheat flour is required to carry in siock, either barley flour, corn meal or corn flour and with every salo of wheat flour must sell a combination of tome one or mere of these in the proportion of one pound of substi t'lte to four pounds of flour. "No dealer may force any other substitutes in combination upon the consumer and the substitution must conform to the standards fixed by the l'"ited States food administration There are some localities where oth er substitutes are available and which retailers may wish to carry. In order to meet this situation the following flours may also be sold in f-uch combinations In lieu of the r.iove flours If the consumer so de mands at the ratio of one pound to tacli four pounds of wheat flour: Kaffir flour, Milo flour, Feterita flour and meals, rice flour, out flour, sweet potato flour and buckwheat flour. "Pure rye flour or meal may be sold as a substitute but must be sold in proportion of at least two pounds of rye with three pounds of wheat flour. "In compliance with the general fituation above, the following alter ations are made In rules and regula tions governing the baking trade: "Rule 1-A. The consumption of 'Wieat flour In baking products not to exceed 70 per cent of tho 1917 consumption Is hereby rescinded. "Rule 2-A. Wheat flour substi tues for bakers remain as heretofore with the exception of rye, which will be a substitute when used upon a ba."ls of not less than 40 per cent which is two pounds of rye flour to nery three pounds of standard wheat flour. When rye is used In this pro lortlon or a greater proportion no ether substitutes are required. If less than this proportion of rye flour is used the difference between such amount used and 40 per cent must be made up of other substitutes. "Rule 6-A. Bakers will be requir ed to use one pound of substitute to each four pounds of wheat flour in all bakery products. Including bread, except class 3-A crackers, in which only 10 per cent substitutes other than rye are required. "The use of the name Victory will be allowed in all products contain ing the above proportions of substi tutes. "Tho previous rules, including licensed millers, wholesalers, retail ers and bakers to carry a 30 days' sunply of flour will be changed to permit a CO days' supply. "The rules limiting sales by retall-3-s of wheat flour to an eighth bar rel In cities and a quarter barrel in narsely settled districts are rescind ed. "The rule limiting the sale of flour by millers to wholesalers or whole salers to retailers In combination with substitutes or certificates there for, and the rule restricting the salo of 70 per cent previous sales are re tcinded.

Rorer, Saturday .evening, while hunting on tho upper Siuslaw, had what he refers to as the thrill of a life time, when he killed a cougar, firing for the first time at a distance if 35 years, says the Eugene Guard. Rorer first noticed the animal com ing from behind him at a distance of about 50 yards. It was moving in his direction and paralleling the track over which Rorer had walked in climbing to the top of a ridge, where he was hunting deer. Mr. Rorer and John Dogart, well known farmer of the Wlllakenzie dis trict, had been hunting during the day In the region between the Clay Owen and the Bill Hawley places, on '.he upper Siuslaw. They had an early supper, after which Rorer de cided to hunt on a ridge about a milo .'rom the camp. Ho took his gun and started out alone. His attention was attracted by a noise In the brush. A few minutes later the cougar mov ed into the open. Rorer fired a shot which struck the animal In th shoulder, but It made away Into thu brush. He fired a second shot and missed. ' The animal by that time had disappeared from sight. Rorer re turned to the camp and secured the assistance of Bogart and a fox ter rier and an airdale dog. It was only a short time until the cougar was located and treed. Rorer directed the shot that brought the animal crashing down from the tree top. scientific department. Speclul a a . I . .. .
