By Frod Lockley
The creation of the food admlnlstra
tion department 1 one of the most
striking examples of patriotism that
has occurred during- the war. Herbert
Hoover was asked by President Wilson
to take upon himself the work of food
administration for 100,000,000 people
In this country and the supplying of
food to millions more In Kurope, The
conservation of food supplies and their
distribution has become more than a
national problem, it Is International,
for upon America's ability to supply
food to our allies depends the fate of
the war. Mr. Hoover consented to be
come food administrator, provided
that he could serve without pay and
that the whole of the force under him,
exclusive of clerical assistants, should
be employed upon a volunteer basis.
Able Man Toluateer Services
President Wilson had implicit faith
In Herbert Hoover's ability to admin
ister this tremendous and Important
task, for he had demonstrated, under
the most trying circumstances, his
ability, to feed starving Belgium. It
speak well for the quality of Ameri
can citizenship that the biggest men In
every state have cheerfully and will
ingly laid aside their own personal
business to dsjjete their entire time
and best efforts toward making the
work of the food administration de
. partment a success and mobilizing the
tood saving forces of the nation.
Oregon has won for herself the name
of the "volunteer state," because she
has led In almost every war time ac
tivlty, and she Is proving no exception
along the lines of food conservation
The busiest men in every community
are laying aside their personal tasks
to devote their time and best efforts
whole-heartedly toward making Ore
gon's record, one of which we may
all oc proud.

2000 Pieces of Hand Painted China
A Shipment From Japan No Longer Expected
At Considerably Less Than Present Wholesale Cost
Do you really appreciate what a big thing this is? Do you realize that right now it is next to impossible to get any
freight from Japan and on the shipments that do come through the rates are prohibitive?
This shipment was long delayed so long, in fact, we'd given up expecting it. Otherwise, the freight alone would make
the prices impossible.
We got this because each year three or four houses in the United States are given the "factory ends" (that is, the extra
pieces made to cover possible breakage) of complete lines of China at a price so low they can be sold at but a fraction of
their real worth ! We are fortunate in being that house in 1 Portland 1
