THE . OREGON DAILY JOURNAL 18 TUESDAY, MARCH 4,,1919. PORTLAND. OREGON. TO OCCUPATION ARMY UNITS ANXIOUS M, IK GET BACK NOME Members Are Making Best . of . Opportunities, but Would Re . turn to "God's Country." .... .;.'. " ' . I: MANY MEN TRANSFERRED Captain Clarence Hotchkiss, 162d Infantry, Sends Letter to the i Womans Auxiliary of Co. E. Captain Clarence H. Hotchkiss of the 163d Infantry, who has been stationed . at Winnall Down camp. Winchester, England, has written the -women's auxiliary of Company' K. 162d Infantry, sending a list of names of all men "transferred from the company since go ing overseas. J. ' Jt Includes the names of some men who came to the company while they were in Camp Mills, drafted, men from California- and also men who came from the Third D. C. infantry. National Guard, while in Camp Greene. A long list of men transferred to the Thirty second division and unassigned until they reported to the division for duty is included. "Some of these boys have been wounded." writes Captain Hotchkiss. "I t do not know of one of them who has been killed, excepting one boy from California, whom you would not know. : They , were transferred to one of the hardest fighting divisions over here, did some wonderful work on the line, and as far as I have been able to learn, they came out very fortunately. I have made repeated inquiries in order to find out i Just how each man fared, but it is very hard for me to get any information about individuals in another division. "While pessimists find enough things to be gloomy over, and while - many things have not run just according to schedule or to our desires .since the . armistice has been signed, there is no . question, tn my mind that peace is se cure, that all the Inevitable minor dif ficulties , which have arisen will in good time be -overcome and that events are leading very satisfactorily, on (he whole, to a long peace. I feel confident that it will not be a great while until all of these boys can return home and take up a normal position in civil life. "In the meantime, most of them are in the army of occupation in Germany, seeing a new country, free from danger, not doing very hard work and having an opportunity to learn and to broaden their outlook that is most exceptional, an opportunity that I have tried very hard to get and will certainly take if it is offered to me. . "They are. of course, very anxious to get back to 'God's country, as they 'call It. again, and you are very anxious : to have them back, but except for. the men in the fighting line, the living con ditions in the army are more healthful even than normal conditions in civil life, where the average boy abuses his health, with too much luxury and ir regularity of habits that are unknown : tn the simple, sometimes strenuous, and almost" Invariably regular routine of the army. f "A year spent In Germany will add so much to their physical health and to their , mental development that when they get back they will be all the bet- ter and abler men for their experiences." Northwestern Long Distance Company 4 Bemains Separate "The Northwestern Long Distance - Telephone company is not in any way affected by the consolidation of the Portland : exchanges belonging to the Home Telephone company and the" Bell Telephone company," says Jay Bower man, attorney for the Long Distance Telephone company. ; "The .Northwestern is in every sense - an Independent, competitive long dis- tarice company; Urider a decree of the federal court the Bell company and its officers are perpetually enjoined from owning any stock in ft. Its securities ' are held by men who have ho connection - with the Bell company. "The consolidated exchanges in Port land will serve the long distance patrons -of the Northwestern company arid ,. Pacific Telephone and Telegraph com V pany Jn the competitive territory on , equal terms." Inspection of Guard To Be Made by Hall , Captain A. A. Hall , will inspect the 1 provisional companies of the Third . Oregon Infantry, national guard, Thurs- day and Friday nights," at Med ford and at Ashland. Other ... companies are in -progress of formation tn Roseburg. Eugene, Independence, La Grande and .. Pendleton." Recruits are being, taken in . Portland for the headquarters, supply -and machine gun companies. Much of ; the organization of the regiment will have been completed when Colonel John ' I. May. now commanding the l$2dTJ.-S. infantry, assumes charge, as he is scheduled to do shortly after his ."arrival home. Don't Let Soap Spoil Your Hair ." - When you wash, your hair, be careful what you use. Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali, which Is very Injurious, as It dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle. ,The best thing to use la Just plain mul sifled oocoanut oil. for this Is pure and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap and beats the most expensive soaps or any thing else all to pieces. Tou can. get this at any drug store.' and a few ounces will last the whole family for months.: ' Simply moisten the "hair .with water and rub It In. about a teaspoonful Is all that Is required. It makes an. abundance of rich, creamy lather, . cleanses thor ughly and rinses saut easily. The hair dries quickly ana evenly, and ; is soft, fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to handle. Besides. It loosens and takes out every particle of dust, dirt and dandruff.
