Ring Passes His Diseovery On
By Bins W. Zdurdner-
To the Editor: I suppose that
theys a great many amongst your
readers, and a specially the older
ones, that find themselfs all the time
4 forgetting thjngi
that ':; they should
- ought'.- to remem
ber andI .Was the
same way Tnyself
if
and one ., of . my-
friends, " suggested
that X take one of
those here memory
courses witch he
said had helped
him a whole . .lot.
but I said what is the use ' of me
paying money for a memory course
when I can probably get one up for
myself .that's just jas good and may
he a whole lot better so I set down
and figured out a system ot how to
remember different things, and now
I am going to pass the good news
on to my admirers and the differents
between the . other memory course
and I is because X don't charge
nothing: for my lessons, but all as
you half to do is send In a' stamp
self addressed . envelop so I worji't
forget where you live At, and I will
tell you the complete system but in
the fist place I, will give youa few
examples of how the system worked
with me and you can- Judge for, your
self if it's OjK. or the opp. j '
Well ; to begin at -.the beginning,
the first time I felt like my memory
was slipping was about 2 mos. ago
when I was out on the golf linx
with a couple of friends and we was
playing for a. berry a hole and along
about the. Sahele. .one of my friends
said he had a six. and the other said
he had a' seven so they asked me
What I had and I said a fjve.
'Usten,' said my 2d friend, "how
about them" two times in the
ploughed ground when you swang
and never hit the balLat all?'V
So that set me to thinking that I
had entirely forgot them 2 whiffs,
so I kind of laughed to cover up
my embarrassments but: I made up
my' mind right" there Hat I would
find , out some way to remember
them missed . swings a specially
when the boys was keeping such
close - tabs on. a person, so that
night I remembered to come home,
and after dinner I worked out a
system and . the next morning I
tried it in the nursery and all 4 of
my kids was in there to say nothing
about the nurse, and without con
sultfcng' notes .1 called them each
by their 1st name.
"Well." I said to myself, "this sys
tem looks, like it was ' A-l and I
would be .alfine stiff if I didnt pass
it-onj to my friends that's inflicted
the sam e way." f .
So -then . I used the new system to
try and think of some of my friends
that had forgot different things, and
the 1st. one X thought of was a bird
that him and I had been down to
N.Y. city a couple mos. before and
had dinner and at. that time he said
let's make it ' Iutch, so X said all
right, but when - the check comes
around -he was busy trying to get1
the maple syrup. off his, hands into
the finger bowl, so in i.this letter I
kind : of reminded him about the
Dutch laws and sure enough in a
few days I got a letter enclosing 70
cts. : in stamps witch was his share
of the orgy. ' -
So then I . happened to think of
another old pal that couldnt never
remember he was married and his
wife had complained about it several
times, so one night we was over to
his house 5 but ; he " wasn't home but
his Mrs. 'thought she knew where
she could reach' him by telephone,
so I called up the No. down town
and sure enough' he was there, and
I got him on the wire and told him
to not forget . he was married and'
he said , he wouldn't and .the next
night he come home andcalledl his
wife by her first name, witch is
more than she could do to him as
she didn't even answer hint.
j.Personly'.,! could., giye ; you .other
proofs about how this .system works,
for instants I can set down'right this
minute -and . without going Into no
newspaper,, files- or calling up any
sporting editors I can . tell "you who
win . between . Willard ' and Dempsey
last July or win the world serious
last October and I can tell if Babe
Ruth swings right or left handed
and I can remember what yr. I was
married, and why, and I can recall
the name of the school I went ' one
semester to before they decided that
2 semesters" was 1 too much. and etc.
- Wherei'thia .system "CotnesVin:-as
handy as any. other 'place tar1 when a
man is1 dressing. " For Inst;; how
many -of you gents puts on your 'col
lax only to find that your shirt is
still off, or dons your shoes and; then
recalls that the hosiery is still miss
ing? Since I got up this system - I
can always manage to get niy gar
ments onto me as they should come
and at 1st. I tried to do Jt in alpha
bet order, but X soon found out that
I hadn't ,BO ' sooner than got my
trousers on, when 1 noticed that the
underwear was yet to come and the
coat bad been on a long while, be
fore it -come time for the vest. ' But
the way X overcome those diff icultys
was to Just make up my , mind to
discard the vest and then' do the
rest of it from omega to alpha, in
stead of vice - versa, go now when I
2
don the old costume, the underwear
comes first, then the trousers and
then the sox and shoes and shirt and
necktie and finely wind up with the
coat whlteh is Just as it should be.
This is only an example to show
you how good thVeystem works and
it don't stop with dressing, but gos
all through a man's daily life and
as. Ivsay I will f pass it on to . my ad
mires, if they will send me a stamp
addressed envelop but no money.

When Gay

' By A. DvCrMg
CAPTAIN James S. Gay. Jr.. com
manded Battery B of the famous
Oregon Field artillary, known officially
aa-the 147th United States Field artillery.
: Captain Gay is a lawyer by profession
and he found abundance of power lodged
in him without rushing every poor devilj
. ' 1 .. . . . . . i

regulations.
One of his methods was to keep a
little book with a page for each offender.
and after two or. three "tricks" to call
up the delinquent before him and ask
him what he thought we" oould or
should do about it. Those Interviews
were much dreaded and - agreements
made by ; the we ? were faithfully kept
in most - of . instances.- When . forgotten
or Ignored there were likely to be rapid
demotions, orders to report to the officer
of the guard every 15 minutes for an
indeterminate number of days., kitchen
police duties, and other dreadful con
tingencies. One instance lets ' a light in on the
manner In which Captain Gay admini
stered his command. A certain sergeant
whom we may call Sergeant Blank, over
stayed his leave in a French town and'
mistook some grape juice for the Innocent-loganberry
juice of dear .. old
Oregon, thereby ultimately arriving In
camp in an exceedingly unmllitary and
individually : independent condition
wherein he r defied : and derided - the
authorities to interfere . with him . from
General Pershing' down.,-..
The third day ; thereafter : : Sergeant
Blank ; appeared before Captain Gay.
"You have thrown me down, asserted
the Captain ; reproachfully. . . Tou have
given me your work;, to - do. 4 No other
officer, non-com. or private can do your
work. - I will have to do it f ir. puts
double duties on me. -Tou are reduced
to a private and will report to so and
so,'"- The captain did the sergeant's
work.- The 'broken' sergeant waa heart
ily ashamed. Day after day the cap
tain attended to the work with the bat
tery and the broken" non-com. could
only - look on from afar. He begged
i an audience, and promised . to never.
never, etc. . . . ' ..
f I don't believe you,' declared the
captain. "There is a young fellow I

rpHtt NaUonal Rifle Shoot will be .
- held at Camp Perry, Ohio, beginning
August 83. and the different mattes
wilV occupy a full week. The Natifmal
Guara of Oregon will be represented
by a team to be chosen at the annual
encampment at Camp Lewis beginning
July . The only way to get on that ,
team la as an enlisted man In the Na
tional Guard of Oregon. The shoot Is
one of the most highly thought of con
tests in the army, navy anA marines.
The only rank is good shooting, and
units of the United States army, navy,
marines. West Point, Annapolis, etc.,
will this year consist of 12 men and two
alternates. Of these at least six must
be new men who have never been at
a national rifle match before.
The main rifle shooting event will be
one match at 200, yards, 20 shots on D
target; the first 10 shots kneeling, the
second 10 shots kneeling, sitting or
squatting. Another match will be ate
600 yards. B target, 20 shots, no sight
ing. The third wIU be 1000 yards, 3
target 20 shots. '
In 1913 Oregon's team won third place,
the highest ever gained by a state team
of the National Guard. In 191 S it won
fifth place and passed every National
Guard team but one. In 1916 the troop
were on the border, and in 1917 getting
ready to call on the kaiser. In 1919
they were coming back from the call.
A number of the crack ahota of Ore
gon ' are coming- in. .Among them Is.
A A. Schwartz, - one-time aerpreant of
company B, Third Oregon, and now a
lieutenant in company B, Fifth Oregon.
He has been in every team sent by
Oregon to any of the national matches
and has over 40 medala won In national
and International contests. In France he
led the rifle shooting in many friendly
contests. It ! more than suspected that
he rejoined the national guard to get
In the rifle game for the ninth time.
Company X of Silverton is reported to
be the best for average attendance for
any company in the Fifth Oregon In
fantry. Captain Grover Todd Is an ovc?
seas veteran and has great confidence
In his men. The company is also claim
ing to have more feet and inches of men
at a drill than any other company be
