He Is In the 6-A grade and is one of the brightest pupils In the class. His brother, Aubrey Davis, aged 12, ts-jn his first term at Lincoln high school, and both children are exceptionally fine students. They are sons of Mr. and Mrs. H. B. Davis of 735 Irving street, the former being a 1 well known steel and iron dealer. The prize for the essay Is a Liberty bond, for which all the schools were competing. The essay follows: We should buy Liberty bonds to hem our soldiers at war. We get good Inter est also. The government doesn't want to keep your money, but aska If you will loan it. This money is for supplies the soldiers need, such as runs, helmets. clothes, ammunition, shoes and food. Just think, there are men to fight for u We can do our bit at home by buy ing Liberty bonds. If the soldiers don't -fight, they are slackers. If we don't buy bonds, we are slackers. Just think of the soldiers In the trenches having to sleep on dirty blankets. They aren't as comfortable as we are. We sleep in beds, but they have to sleep in mud in the trenches and get up early for an attack. We have a longer time to rest than they do. Think of the wounded soldiers with no bandages. We can each buy a Liberty bond to help them. We don't need the money now as the government needs It.

County Agent Kable says that Benton county never had better prospects of a great crop of fruit than at the present. He says from every part of the county come reports of fine crop prospects .and greatly in creased acreage, and that the fruit has not been damaged by the frosts. He says many farmers are making Inquiries regarding the cannery plant here, re- An Increase of 50. per cent In water rates in Portland can only be averted by passage of a charter amendment au thorizing the Issuance of refunding bonds to care for the redemption of bonds where money- is not available for that purpose, according to Commis sioner John M. Mann, in charge of the water bureau. In 1893 bonds amounting to $2,200,000 were sold, but no provision was made for a sinking fund to redeem these bonds until 1905. 12 years after the bonds were sold. Since that time 2 per cent has been set aside, but this amount will not redeem the bonds, and unless the proposed measure is approved by the 'voters the present water rates will have to be Increased. So that all water-users will know the purpose of the proposed measure. Com missioner Mann will inclose a circular in all water bills sent out between now and the date of the special election, May 17. The circular reads as follows : On July 1. 1893. the City of Portland issued water bonds in amount ef $2,200, 000. These bonds will mature July 1, 1923. So provision was made for re tiring these bonds until 1905 12 years after they were issued. There Is being set aside each year 2 per cent of the bonded indebtedness, which amount is to be used to retire bonds. However, irv July. 1923. there will be a deficit. under the present arrangement, of 8760, 000, which must be met by the selling of retirement bonds or by raising the water rates approximately 60 per cent, which raise must be made immediately If the proposed amendment to the char ter fails to carry. To avoid raising the rates, vote "Yes X 108" on your ballot May 17. 1918, and help to carry the proposed amendment which will make it possible for the city to take up the old bonds by the sale of new ones.
