There's a quaint little lady whose praise we would sing.
And we bow at her feet as our homage we bring,
i It is not for her beauty, her wealth or her ken
. That she reigns like a queen In the hearts of true men,
'. For she sprang from the ranks of the lowly of earth,
Nor blue blood nor culture enhances her worth,
While the striking creations our lady doth wear
" " Would drive a modiste lo the verge of despair,
' But we crown her our queen with love's diadem bright,
I i fyta the Salvation Lassie we honor tonight.
We may toast the bold Spartans and Joan de Ar.c,
' '. Who breasted life's flood when the waters were dark, ,
Yet our Salvation Lassie, not heeding the chance,
i Gladly poured out her soul on the shambles of Prance.
' And many a lad in that ahell-cratered land
Has felt the cool touch of her pain-healing hand,
'. ! And the fond, doting mother, who prayed for him there,
j Llttlo dreamed that our lassie would answer her prayer.
And thousands cf lads whom wle proudly acclaim,
Would fight for her honor and die for her name.
'Mid the paBsions of men and the battle's wild crash
' Her shoulders were bared' to war's keen, cruel lash,
With a meekness and love that was wondrous to ace,
' i Like the God-man she worships on far Calvary.
Ah, sweet Salvation Lassie, sweet newly crowned queen,
With your little poke bonnet and gay tambourine,
j The hot, scalding tear of our gratitude starts,
Tou have bullded a home In our warm human hearts.
' ' Tou yielded your all to our cause and the right,
Your heart is pure gold and your soul spotless white.
So we bow to tho wealth of your virtues, serene,
Sweet Salvation Lassie, we cjwn you our queen.

The purchaser of an Oldsmobile has a distinct advantage.
He may have strongly defined ideas of preference for
either an eight or a six cylinder car. Yet in either case
he need not relinquish the principal idea, the possession
of an OLDSMOBILE. .

West Prussia has sent a declaration
to the Imperial Mate authorities
stating that under no circumstances
will the Germans of West Prussia
agree to thle reported plane of the
entente to internationalize the low
er ( Vistula or make Danzig and its
vlolnity a free state, or place it un
Ider Polish sovereignty. It is de
clared that West Prussia with Dan
zig must not be separated from tho
German empire. ,
In an editorial commenting on
tli)9 failure of the racial lequallty
clause to secure a place In the cove
nant of the League of Nations, the
Japanese Times declares that the na
tional disappointment of Japan
vterges upon disaffection and affords
opportunity for sensationalists to
stir up anti-white prejudice. Repre
sentative Japan regard the Paris
decision as a snub and a humilia
tion, the newspaper says. It con
tinues.
"The refusal of the august con
gress of white peoples to awept the
principle of equality of non-whites
probably will erect a perpetual mar
rier to the harmonious commingling
of the races toward which it wag be
lieved the world was tending. It
can only tend to accentuate racial
prejudices, which will far from real
ize President Wilson's ideal lasting
peace"
.' Japan's admission to the com
pany of the grfeat powers must be
considered as only for the political
convenience of the allies, the Times
declares, and It compares Japan's
position to that of a negro preacher
astyjd to speak in a church because
of his oratorical powers, but who
Is not considered the racial equal of
the white congregation.
"It is well for Japan to remlember
this point," the newspaper adds.
"The only way of sustaining Japan's
preetlj must le sought In prepared
ness to cope with international situ
ations as they develop. Peace on
earth and good will toward men
must be considered as still very dis
tant." A "dictated but not read" rubber
stamp is the most costly device of
its size ever made.

Mrs. A. C. Spencer,
Ashland, Oregon.
Dear Mother:
It is rather a strange fact that
while today Is nice and bright wo
hav,en't worked, as we are waiting
to move, "Somewhere in France,"
also the weather Is quite cold. Hag
tean very cold lately with sharp east
winds blowing and piling the snow
all over, so most exposed places are
bare while In hollows and alwut ob
structions Is pretty well drifted.
Last Saturday afternoon, in order
to get some fresh air and exercise,
I went to Uelnccourt, with the ra
tion trucks for eats. We started
rather late in the evening so had to
hurry to gat there before the Quartc
Master closed but It was a fine trip.
For several miles the road crosses a
rolling prairie country and thru two
or three small villages. Then we
entered an old town on the rim of
a wooded hill, sloping down into a
rather broad valley. We entered
the town thru an old gateway of
two round towers, with cone-shaped
roofs, and an archway between them.
The towers are loopholed and doubt
less many an ancient warrior has
stood guard )ehlnd their posts and
watched for enemies approaching
along this same road.
Here we go, down a long hill.
The main street, which leads to the
sate of an old chateau perched on
the point of a projecting spur of tha
mountain, overlooking the valley.
The street makes an abrupt turn and
follows the old wall round the cha
teau, then down a smooth grade in
to the valley and into the town of
Relnoourt.
We got what we went for and had
supper of French fried potatoes,
steak and eggs, and quite well after
dark started back. It was moon
light and the snow on the ground
made the V-orld, about us a fairy
land. The old French houses with
lighted windows, and covered with
snow and surrounded by fir trees.
It was worth all It has cost me and
a lot more. I wish "you all" could
see some of it, at Its best. It got
pretty snappy before we reached
camp, Just at taps, but I sure en
Joyed the trip.
Sunday I went to Grande, a small
village Just north of our camp. There
Is a Roman ruin there that was de-

stroyed along about 400 A. D. by
the Invasion of northern tribes, or
by the Gauls, I do not recall which,
but th3 Job was well done. There arc
only some broken arches and a pita
of broken stones that scarcely is
more than a hill. A depression
around the sides of the hill shows
tho lines of the outer wall from the
main building. It is said there is a
mosaic floor uncovered in places,
but was so covered with snow we
could not see that. '
A part of the company Is return
ing to Bure Leg Templiers today and
the rest of us will be going soon.
Our work' here Is practically done

SINCE WAR ENDED
Althlo the armistice was signed
November 11, the peak load of ex
penditures of the United States Gov
ernment was carried after that date.
Expenditures for the six months to
the end of February was the heavi
est period. This Is shown by the
following table:

December 2,060,975,854
January 1,962,350,943
February 1,189,913,903
This statement leads strongly to
tlie conviction that the strongest
reason why every one should sub
scribe to the limit for Victory loan
bonds is ,the real need of the Gov
ernment for funds. In order to pay
the accumulating costs of the Treas
ury DlepaHment has Iteen obliged to
IsgUi certificates of Indebtedness In
he amount of $300,000,000 a week.
These short time notes are almost
due and must lfe taken up with the
funds realized from the sole of Vic
tory bonds.

loans. He was followed by J. 11.
Jones, a member of the 69th regi
ment, C. A. C, recently returned
from overseas duty, who gave a brief
description of army life as witnessed
by himself and other Ashland com
rades who went abroad on this great
adventure.
Revi. C. F. Koehler, pastor of the
Presbyterian church of this city, al
so presented the reasons for sub
scribing to the Victory loan in o
reasonable and lucid manner. He
was followed by Hon. W. C. Haw
ley, representative of the Flirt Con
gresslonal district of the state. Con
gressman Hawley, perhaps more
than any other man In the assemb
lage, realizes the needs of this loan
to assist in rehabilitating the re
turned soldiers and finding a place
for them in the walks of life, of
which the fortunes of war have de
prived them. His descriptions of
the conditions of many returned sol
tilers around the hospitals in Wash
ington brought the truths home to
the people in the sheltered west
country more forcefully than any
other methods had accomplished.
The opening of the Victory cam
paign was one of th most attrcttlve
demonstrations presented here, and
all returned td their various duties
with, a broader conception of pa
triotism and realization of the need
to respond to the country's demands
than they had ever received before.
Relief is in Sight
Foi Western Tiemen
That prices anl fairer systems of
purchasing ties would be restored
and other grievances of western tie-
men satisfactorily adjusted by the
United Statles railroad commission,
Is the context of a message received
from ex-Governor Oswald West by
O. H,. Balli" secretary of the Western
Oregon Tite and Lumber association
which has headquarters in Eugene,
says the Guard. Mr. West was sent
to Washington by a group of lum
ber and tie associations In this state
and Washington to present their
case to the heads of the railway ad
mlnsitration. The action grew from
the Initiative taken by the Western
Oregon Tie and Lumber association
in a resolution passed at a meeting
1n Albany, Oregon, Several weeks
ago. This meeting was ronowea by
a mass mooting of associations in
Portland two weeks ago when de
cision to send a representative to
Washington, was made.
The chief grievance of the tiemien
against the purchasing system of the
administration has been that agents
havie exterdsed unlimited authority
in rejecting ties cut for shipment and
degraded- too large a percentage to
a claaa below acceptance. The other
factor In the complaints is that man
ufacturers havte been allowed to sell
their ties to only railways In their
territory. An. open market Is asked.

antiseptic wall of defense against
"Flu" germs.

to grip. Stop them at once with
Wizard Oil before they can develop
into dangerous influenza.
Get it from druggists for 30& If
