"You are next." Buckhorn Barber Shop Clyde Costolo Soldier's Letter Mrs. B. R. Stevens received tho following "Mothers' Day" letter from her son Waldo, who Is with the army of occupation In Germany, and who wrote while on a trip to Paris: Paris, France, May 11, 1919, jl M it The Born guaranty a clothes satisfaction insurance policy, without the payment of a premium. You are not ex pected to pay for your Born tailored' suit unless it satisfies you completely in fit, -workmanship and quality of materials. And because Born Tal loring does satisfy, this liberal guaranty adds notli-. ing to our cost it adds nothing to our p rice. Let us show you how good a suit we can make for the money you are willing to invest. foiiJcnt Born Oor) rAULSERUD & BARRETT ASHLAND, OREGON Dear Mother". This Is Mother's Day so I will write you a few lines to let you know I am thinking of you. I am spending a five day leave In Paris. My five days will be up tomorrow and I will start back to Germany again. I have certainly had a won derful time during my stay here. I never believed that the Y. M. C. A. was a very good organization but they surely do good work here In Paris. They furnish sight seeing cars to take the soldiers about the city to the points of interest,. The guides that accompany the groups are on to their job and we are able to get the best out of every thing. I won't be able to tell you all the won derful tilings I have seen here, until I see you again but I am going to try and tell you some of the things 1 saw from the time I left Germany. You know I saw some of the famous battle fields enroute to Germany the first time. On my way to Paris I went thru Metz, Toul sector, Cha teau Thierry and a lot of other less Important places. With the places I have seen both going and coming I can say that I have seen all the im portant battle fields In which the Americans took any part. Some of the most interesting things I have seen here In Paris Is the supreme court room where Cotton was tried for the attempted murder of Clem enceau, the building where the peace conference Is being held, the church that was hit by the big Bertha while tlie Huns) were bombarding Paris and the chateau where Mr. and Mrs. Wilson are stopping. There Is no use for me to tell you about all the art museums1 and other places that I saw Another thing I almost for got to tell you In which you might be Interested Is I visited Napoleon's tomb yesterday. When I returned from that trip I got off a car In front of a large museum and I saw a big crowd gathered there. I stop ped to see what was going on and I was just In time to see Mrs. Wood row Wilson and the wife of the president of France come out and enter a taxi. I heard that President Wilson is going to speak somewhere in the city today and I am going to try to see him, too. I wish that 1 could tell you everything in detail Just as I have seen it but I will have to let that wait. I was certainly lucky to get this leave to Paris. I am the second man In the company to go to Paris. I put In my application over a month ago, 1 really didn't expect to get it but I was surprised when I learn ed that it had been approved. I don't think any one can say they have seen France until they have seen Paris. Altho It cannot be com pared with New York City it is the most beautiful city of the two. I must close now as It is time for lunch and I don't hive to line up for It either. I will dine in a real cafe. Regards to all. I am affection ately, your son, ' WALDO.

Industrial Training Cures Restlessness WASHINGTON, ! C When a ism recontly began to develop among workers In a rather small shop In a leading Ohio city, the management llasorted to Industrial training and found It an excellent corroctlvo of the Incipient dlscontont. Soon after the disturbance became apparent In the plant an Investigation rovoaled that It centered In one of the common laborers w'ho seemed determined to "start something." Much of his spare tln was spent In magnifying de fects In the present social system and In preaching doctrines of un rest. According to the U. S. Training service, of the department of labor which has a report on the case, the Buperlntiendent of the shop recog nized that this dlsturlior, whose name was Frank, had considerable native ability and It was decided to give him tho chance he had so many times said was denied him. Accord ingly, Frank was asWed to lay asldi hie broom and to operato a machine. With the aid of a competent Instruc tor representing the firm's training department, he soon learned to run a simple machine. After operating It for a time he was promotod to a more difficult machine whero he was given further Instruction. According to tho shop manage ment the change In altitude which ctme over this employe was really remarkable Each pay-day he drew approximately three tlmlee as much aa he had whilo wloldlng a Droom, and soon began payments on a home. His anarchistic discourses gave wair to a spirited condemnation of Bol shevism. This actual occurrence Is one of several wHlo.li tho U. S. Training Service cites to show that industrial training gives workers an opportuni ty for self-Improvement which Is the best cure for discontent of an un healthy sort. 1 GOVERNOR APPOINTS' ADJUTANT GENERAL In naming Conrad Stafrin, of Dal las, now adjutant general of Oregon, Thursday, Governor Olcott announc cd that offices of the adjutant gen eral would be moved from Portland to Salem.
