Or.. Nov. 21. Pendleton is just concluding two strenuous weeks of war activity. With raising of a Y. M. C.

Pendleton's quota for the T. M. C, A. fund was $5000 and the committees secured more than that amount. This city was asked to raise $1000 for the Red Cross Christmas fund and raised more than $1600. High school students and women of the city made 750 scrap books to include In the Christmas boxes and 750 Christmas boxes were filled and shipped. funds of the bank, said to amount to more than $17,000. MacDonald was arrested 'at the in stigation of State Bank Examiner W. E. Hanson.
