"My father 1b naturally quite upset and talks of a trip to France to find my brother's grave and then a journey to Buenos Aires to see my second broth er and his family. - Then I had hoped to travel to the coast after it's all over. Tell the Judge I am not depressed though a trifle anxious. I have the consolation that if I am eventually in capable of doing much I shall at least not starve and 'they say that when one's brain grows weary one is easily pleased so I might spend my days watching the tide go out and come in." ISl IBM HELL SEEMED NEAR TO YANK TAGS ARE TO BE SOLD "l aw a picture of my friend, George Cameron In The Journal, and he looks not a day older and Just as I remember him," writes Walter Sidebottom, a for mer Tortlander who has been wounded in service in France. "Thanks for The Journal, evidently the Judge was too modest to forward It. "I have quite recovered from my shell wounds but I regret to say an in finitely more serious damage has been -discovered and 1 am now rather anxious ly waiting the outcome. I have partially lost the hearing In the left ear and though there Is a large perforation the trouble seems to be a mastoid which sooner or later will affect the brain. "I had special leave and consulted a Harley street, specialist who declared an operation inevitable. The specialist here declares the operation a very serious one and is trying to get me right without go ing to the extreme. I don't know what to do. Most of the eimilar cases have left the unfortunates with a crooked eye and twisted mouth so that I funk anyone but the best to try my case. This the nrmy will not allow, we cannot pick our own doctor even though we are willing to pay for private operations. Doesn't it seem rough? The only thing I can do Is to pray for a speedy peace and in the meantime endeavor by forti tude to avoid going stupid. "At the earlleHt date I would then allow the best man in London to try his luck. The war news is splendid and if only President Wilson and the other allied advisors will stick to uncondition al surrender we soldiers will be satisfied and think lightly of our misfortunes.

Portland Man Enjoys Wild Life of War Game. "It's all going to be over before you could get your spiral legging and gas mask on," wrote James Hutchlngs, who was serving in ' France with Company F, Tenth engineers, October 9. "We aren't going to wait around over here and fool away our time. We're doing some business with Germany now. "You notice, I say, we. yep, I mean to include myself in that. I'm seeing the big show and seeing more of It than some folks, and every little while some thing happens that makes me think that hell isn't so far away. But I'm all in one piece so far, although I got one little bump once. But in aiming to pay someone for It several guys paid. I'm beginning to like to be wild and woolly, but this is a rough game. Some exciting, too, at times and in some ways It is all fun. Did you ever start out for a nice peaceful ride on a big truck with a stolen or, rather, a borrowed machine gun on said truck and all at once find that somebody had dropped about 15 pounds of lively hey under the rear of said truck, which blew it all to pieces? Well, If that Isn't excite ment there Is no such fish, and wouldn't It make you mad? I'm quite an old timer over here now. I have a whole sleeve full of service stripes and I'm going In for more. My little old blouse looks like a million -dollars to me, and this suit of mine is filled with a real man, and I can think even with my gas mask and iron hat on." S Nathan N. Enkeles, with the motor supply train in France, wrote to Dan Kelleher of the police department" and told of the Interest around a wine mak ing establishment in France. He says : "You know France is noted for its rais ing of grapes and making wine and you can be sure I drink my share of the wine. It's geod, and say. If I thought Sherlock Holmes or Pat Maloney wouldn't arrest me. why I would Bend you some in a fountain pen. "I haven't found a location here yet. because if I postpone It for a couple of months, why I'll pick out a place in Berlin. There will be plenty of un claimed goods there." "For the babies at home." This is the slogan which has been adopted by the workers for the Waver Iy Baby Homo tag day, the day before Thanksgiving. This tag day has a real patriotic appeal, as the home is shelter ing many war babies and expects to be called upon to care for many more within the next few months.

In the Wena tehee national forest the largest stores hare been found, although the largest single catches were located on the east side of Mount Rainier, where from 30 to 100 quarts were found. The bugs do not wnve west or the Cascades because of the dampness, which causes a fungus to grow upon their backs which kills them, according to scientists. Collecting of the beH mill x complished for the most part, this fall. In distributing th lnmct nart mm. mer, first consideration will be given the immediate region where the bugs were located, according to Mr. BurriU, and no bugs will be transported out ef. a region where found, unless an abundant supply remains. Ladybugs from the Wenatchee, the Rainier, the Crater and other national forests are soon to be gathered by the bureau of entomology to be used for combating the aphides next summer. Their haunts have been discovered by forest rangers, and the bugs are being gathered and placed in cold storage at the laboratory of the bureau of entomology at Forest Grove, until next summer when the aphides commence to devour the farmers grain. A. C. Bnrrill. In charge of the labora tory, visited the district forest office this morning and conferred with A. J. Jaenicke, Insect specialist, regarding further cooperation between the bureau and the forest service. Mr. Burrtll has just returned from an agricultural sur vey of Western Washington. In one district alone he found the damage to $1,000,000. Few ladybugs are found west of the Cascades, and it will be necessary to transport them across the mountains to the infested areas. Dr. Trevor Kin caid. head of the department of soology of the University of Washington, has noted only a few locations In the Olym- pla peninsula where the ladybug grows. Most of the ladybug catches have been located east of the Cascades moun tains. From Canada to California they A3,"-33-3 ..! 1! V L, IT 1 l. T'T i T TT T T'T.MiTTfi :.' TT . . ,1 t J 1.1 I ' ' ' .

War-time Service in a Stylish Street Shoe WOMEN, even more than men, reflect the spirit of the times in what they use and wear. There is a demand throughout America for a woman shoe of service, of comfort, of economy. A shoe that looks smart on the foot and yet meets or anticipates die Government's desire to eliminate needless extravagance of wasteful frivolity in dues. Our way of meeting this demand is another triumph for Regal shoemaking. It show the value of the Regal policy of concentration.
