SO: far. Have been here since June H, Tlsitina: with Mr. and Mrs. ;Brown, TilUe's sister. They are golnr to travel with us after Saturday the 2nd of July. There is to be a big Fourth at Oakland and Berkeley, with 50 United States warships in marine move ments and practice drills, etc., be sides aero drills with flying ma chines and many other things.: Ac cording to the papers it will be Quite an event. May be we wil see a real Fourth of July celebration. The roads coming here are Very good. Oregon has lots of good roads, and from Ashland to the summit of Siskiyous to the Cali fornia line it was hard surface bitulithic a grand and beautiful drive wth many curves and dan. gerous places. When we were half way up we came upon the train with three locomotives and 10 cars. We both passed under a bridire at the same time, and be- t i SAVE MONEY, ON YOUR DENTAL WORK Why pay more when you can get high ; class dentistry at a price that is within - reason , ALL OPERATIONS PAINLESS Plates . ...... i ... .fis.oo Crowns (anterior) gold or porcelain... j.. ffl.OO Crowns (posterior).'. .$7.00 Gold Fillings, up from $2.00 Porcelain ' Fillings. .. .$2.50 Bridge work, gold or porce- lain $6.00 to $7.oo Silver Filling, up from $l.oo Cement Fillings $1.00 Removing Nerve $2.50 Cleaning-Teeth $1.00 Extractions Painless . . $1.00 1 v ALL WORK GUARANTEED DR.

"T , -" " fore the train had passed under the bridge we were going overb top of the train. Some curve! Fromi the California line to Red Bluffs the road is what we call grave) roads, but quite smooth, with many horseshoe curves. Yau can look and see the road sev eral of them down the mountain side which you have to travel. The roads are just wide enough for two autos to pass, and some times when you are on the out side and hundreds of feet down ycu will think there is not room to pass and wish you were on the la aide instead of the out. Mrs. Tay lor is always saying: "Hug close to the right side," but when her side Is on the outside of the curves she is willing for me not to has quite so close to that side, as it looks too far down. The travel is something fierce; it seema like half the people are living in au tos now on the road. We pass hundreds of them every day; it seems just one continual stream of them; so you see it is keep your side of the road. This i3 the land of figs, apricots, olives, grapes, etc. They raise grain also, espe cially where they have irrigation, but where there i no water every thing is dead and dried up. Stock ton is quite a pretty place; many beautiful palm trees on the streets r.nd parks. Some of them are more than three feet in diameter and 40 feet or more in height. The general run of dwellings here are of the bungalow type, and many beautiful ones are to be seen. Sa lem has none to compare with the designs here. Very few two-story houses as we have at home. This place is in the San Joaquin val ley and has water navigation, but canals have been made from the river to the city and the water front is quite a busy place. Al though it is 76 miles from San Francisco, they have about three feet of tide. The weather is about as warm as we 'have it in July and August, bat there is a nice breeze in the afternoon, and dur. ing the night it gets quite pleas ant. ; They claim the thermometor reached 114 the day before I ar rived here, and I was very glad I escaped it. So hope to be on our way : down the coast before any more comes along. Saw Mrs. Harry Minto While I was in Dunsmuir, Cal.. some one hailed us, and, to our surprise, it was Mrs. Harry Minto. She hai been on the road for eight years. She has been to China. Japan. Hawaii and most over; the United States, and still on the road, but on her way to Sa lem lor a short stay. She seemed well land hearty. I will try and drop you a line as we go along, but surely wish you were with us. Give my best regards to any of my friends you happen to meet. With best wishes to you and yours. Sincerely, '....' B. P. TAYLOR, Stockton, Cal., June 30, 1921. (Address mo Long Beach, G. D. Transient.)

One of the main events of the day was an old fash ioned program of patriotic songs and addresses. "An address given by Prof. B. T. Youell. superintendent of Sil verton schools, should be given consideration if only for one por tion of his remarks and that was the reading of the "Makers of tha Flae," written by the late Frank lin D. Lane, former secretary of the interior." said Mr. Van Trump. The quotation follows: "The work that we do is the making of the flag. I am not the llag, not at all. I am but its sha dow. I am whatever you make me. nothing more. I am your be lief in yourself, your dream of what a people may become. "I live a changing life, a life of moods and passions, of heart breaks and tired muscles. Some times I am strong wjth pride, when men do an honest work, fit ting the rails together truly. Sometimes I droop, for then pur pose has gone from me and cyni cally I play the coward. Some times 1 am loud, garish, and full of that ego that blasts judgment. But always I am all that you hope to be and have the courage to try for. The Flag Speaks "I am song and fear, struggle &nd panic, and ennobling hope. I am the day's work of the weakest man, and the largest dream of the most daring. I am the constitu tion and the courts, statutes and statute makers, soldier and dread naught, drayman and street sweep, cook, counselor and clerk. I am the battle of yesterday and the mistake of tomorrow. I am thQ mystery of the men who do with out knowing why. I am the clutch oi an idea and the reasoned pur pose of resolution. I am no more than what you believe me to be and I am all that you believe I can be. I am what you make me, nothing more. "T swing before your eyes a bright gleam of color, a symbol of yourself, the pictured sugges tion of that big thing which makes this nation. My stars and my stripes are your 'dream and your labors. They are bright with rheer, brililant with courage, firm fc'ith faith, because you have made them so out of your hearts. For you are the makers of the flag, and it is well that you glory in the making." ; I S LEG QUEERS MATTERS Cherrian Anchor Man's Knee Goes Awry in Tug of War At Newberg There is u legend of a man who once had his leg talked off. The Cherrians and Berrians almost talked George Simeral's lg off, in getting him into the tug of war at Newberg tnd then pulling the leg out of joint at the big Ber rian meeting yesterday. The Cherrians went to Newberg to give the herriansa fine, fr.Tnd ly beating, a sociable drubbing that they'd vnjoy the rest of their lives. They were just doing it, too, when Simeral's trusty leg, which was the anchor of the Sa lem team, took a twist as he made a step for a new hold, and the knee kissed the team good bye and went on a strike. Sim- era nursed if back Into grudgin? commission, but with only IS good legs in the team against 2U Newberg limbs, . they couldn't quite drag the Berrians to death. It was BtUl nobody's game at the end of five minutes. Newberg1 brought In truck loads of berries, black and red rasp berries and loganberries, and bar rels of whipping cream and whole sacks of sugar, for the free pub lic treat. ; The Newberg people fed thousands of people; liberal portions of luscious fruit that would have satiated anyone but a trained gormandizer. The fruit was donated by the farmers of the Newberg country. The town took care of the rest of th-3 cele-bration.-and everybody claims the credit for one of the most de lightful celebrations of (he year. JNewberg is opening a fine new park, and this was dedicated by the visiting thousands. The Cherrians, and the J'runarians of Vancouver were the chief of the uniformed visitors, but a vast crowd came in from other towns to make merry with the New bergers. A berry : and cherry show was one of the features of the day. In the morning J.
