Mr. Flnley thinks that the bird's
early visit indicates more of his kind
are to come during the winter. Th-
blrds inability to see clearly In the
daytime, and probable entanglement
of his talons, It is thought, accounts
for his easy capture.
The bird ls white with flecklngs of
brown, and of considerable size.
An Arctic owl, which had been shoi
in Woodland. Wash., was received by
Mr. Flnley this morning from D W
Whitlow of that place.
The only species of owl that ls not
protected in Oregon Is the great horned
owl so that technically the killing of
the Snowy owl. despite the fact that
it is a predatory bird. Is a violation
of the game laws, if done without the
authority of a psrmit.
If depredations are done by the Ijlnl
to the extent done in LaRouche's 'n
stance, sufficient cause would obtain
for the issuing of a permit, said Mr.
Flnley.

The speaker disagreed with the the
ory of preparation for war in time of
peace, holding that in the European
war the only country on whose should
ers the blame for the war can be
laid, ls the one which was prepared.
"I would rather go down to an early
grave," he said, "than be the citisen

Judgment of time should so sit, whose
name should be a by-word' and a "hiss

By C. P. BertellL
(Staff corretpondent of the International I
Paris. Nov. 10. (by mall.) (L N.
S.) I have carefully sounded the
feelings of the masses on the war in
three entente countries Britain, Italy
and France and the conclusions are
that they are ready to support their
governments in another year of war,
not cheerfully, of course, but with
unimpaired steadfastness of purpose.
It ls a fact that for a great major
ity of women in Europe the war will
not end a moment too soon. j
As to the economic aspect of the
situation. That Great Britain ls en- 1
Joying prosperity is generally Known. ;
I recently had an opportunity of dis
cussing Britain's condition with Lord
Northcliffe. "It ls quite useless ror i
any one to talk of peace In England )
now." he said. . "We shall carry the ,
job through no matter how long it ,
lasts."
It is not generally known that Italy :
also is prospering under war condl- !
tions. Trade ia very good and there
ls work for every man not mobilized, j
In France, too, there has been a big
business revival this year, and during
a period when a tremendous strain :
has been placed upon the whole re- .
ourcea of the country. !
A fact generally recognized in the ,
entente countries is that their mill- ;
tary power will not reach its zenith ;
until next year. This, of course, ap- j
plies mostly to Britain In the sense ,
that the country will be able to de-
plo her greatest available number j
of troops then. It is also true of
France, Russia and Italy in the sense ,
that they will next year be able to j
bring an unprecedented number of
guns and shells to the battlefield.
Until now the British and Italian
armies have suffered least of all
of the armies of the big powers, and '
both have tremendous resources In
men, to say nothing of Russia. But
what ls less generally recognized is '
the magnificent condition of the 4
French army after more than two I
years of the bloodiest fighting waged !
in the world's history. j
Youths Lose Nerve
And $2000 in Gold
San Francisco. Nov. 21. (U. P.)
A dragnet was thrown out by the po
lice today in an effort to capture the
five youthful bandits who attempted
the most daring robbery San Fran
cisco has known in years last night
when they invaded the exclusive Pa
cific Union club and held up all with
whom they came in contact. The net
proceeds of their adventure was about
120 in silver. They failed to get $2000
In gold which was in the cash drawer
because they lost their nerve at the
critical moment.
The youths were evidently ama
teurs. . Driving up to the club which
ls on the summit of fashionable Nob
Hill the robbers hold up the attend
ants In the lobby and then attempted
to make the rounds of the card rooms
and other rooms where wealthy mem
bers were. They finally became panic
stricken when they saw their efforts
failing and fled.
