Right, that was when the venturesome sailor discovered Amer ica. But "Columbus 1492" is the number you call now in New York when you want to discover a way to serve America. When the U. S. Junior Naval Re serve opened new headquarters at 231 West Fifty-eighth street, the boys who are being trained in mer chant marine and naval affairs, wanted a telephone number of some significance, so they asked for one in memory of the first seaman to come to this country. Their request was quickly granted. Next, the boys wanted an office boy with a patriotic name, and ad vertised for one. They got him, too. He's George Dewey West. Dressed as an admiral, he is now distribut ing publicity to visitors. Four hundred more boy recruits are wanted- to join the Junior Re serve here. Over 1000 cadets are expected at Camp Dewey this sum mer, and boys of the Junior Reserve may win scholarships to that camp. Marine equipment must be doubled to take care of the crush at Camp Dewey. .

There's a strapping youth here who wants to fight for Uncle Sam, and who will fight, too, if the war lasts long enough. There are two extremes in this fighting business the slackers who won't fight, and the fellows who will almost fight for a chance to fight. This big fellow appeared at the recruiting station two weeks back, but a sudden rush of work crowded him away. Two days later he came back, but the examiner found the scar of a recent appendicitis operation, and he was rejected. A week went by. A familiar face appeared at the recruiting station. The man wanted to Join the "soldiers of the sea." The examination dis closed a wonderfully tattooed but terfly. Close inspection showed this mark all but hid an appendicitis operation scar. The lad was rejected. He may serve his country by .becoming a farmer. OPPONENTS OF ROAD BONDS JUGGLE FACTS loounues uuisiae or nr.unnoman Will Receive More Than Tbey Contribute.

White and Pink , Carnal' ns for Mothers Day Sunday May 6 Mrs. Inez Pence Oregon Street near Wall Tn an effort to turn the voters of Benton, Lane, Linn and Marlon Coun ties against the road bond bill, C. E. Spemre, Master or the Grange, is mak ing the unfounded assertion that none of the money raised from the bonds will be exepnded on roads In the Wil lamette Valley south "of Multnomah County; that all of the money contrib uted by Willamette Valley counties In automobile licenses and In tuxes from the quiirter mill state rood tax will be required and will be expended In com puting the Columbia River Highway. The plain facts are: 1st. Unliable engineering estimates secured by the ifishway Commission agree that $l,7C0.000 will complete the Columbia River Highway from Astoria :o The Dalles. 2nd. Multnomah County pays 37 V4 per cent of the state tax and 40 per cent of the automobile license tws but under the highway plan embraced In the road bond bill not one cent of tho money so paid will be expended in Multnomah County. 3rd. Multnomah County will pay In automobile fees and state road tax ap proximately J2.400.000 which Is more than sufficient to complete the Colum bia River Highway and leave a bal ance of 6i0,000 to be applied on other roads. These figures do not take into account the amounts that will be paid by Clatsop, Columbia, Hood River and Wasco counties which will also be available for completing the Columbia River Highway. The amounts paid into the fund by these counties will further reduce the amount of Multno mah County's contribution to the Co lumbia River Highway and leave a considerably larger sum than $660,000 to be applied on the Pacific Highway and other roads contemplated la the road bond bill. 4th. Not one cent of the money paid by counties of the state, other than that contributed by Multnomah, Clatsop, Columbia, Wasco and Hood River counties, will be required to complete the Columbia River Highway and the other roads outside of the counties enumerated. Eth. In other words, under the $$. 000,000 road bond plan, Multnomah County automobile owners and tax payers will not only pay sufficient funds to complete the Columbia River Highway but will also contribute to the fund that will be expended on the Pacific Highway and other roads In the Willamette Valley and In other sec tions of the state. 6UPPORT ROAD BONDS AND GET CONSTRUCTION If the bond issue falls to carry ($6. 000,000 road bond bill), let us ask our selves what Is going to become of the quarter-mill tax that we are going to pay anyway? What Ib going to be come of the auto license tax, thaj (Jib autolsts aru ruing to pay anyway? Wu talk about fearing the funds dsrlvml from the bonds will be Inequitably dis tributed, what better off will ws lie regarding equtyiblo dliti'llmllim of the roiul money if wo vote down the bonds? Where will It go? Uiidor the bonding bill wo are assured that If the county prepares lis grade Hint that ileslgnuted road will be liurdsur fuccd.

Washington, April S4. (Spe- clal). Senator Chamberlain to- day expressed his hearty up- proval of the proposal to build hard-surfaced modern roads tu Oregon paralleling the Pacific CoiihI. lie declared t hut such roads through all the Pacific Coast states would be of the greatest military Importance. "While not familiar with the details of the Oregon road plan," said Senator Chamberlain, "ns I understand It, that pluii will provide roads which, from a military standpoint, are most necessary. Hut, as a matter of faet."we should have sueh rends paralleling the Coast Hue from Canada to Mexico. First -rlnss liurd siirfnee roads would afford ready facility for transporting both troops und supplies up and down the Pacific Count In the event of military activity on that roatt and would greatly augment the railroad. . "itouds such as these would have tho highest strategic val- ue and ought to be built, but I do not believe the Federal Gov- ernmnn: at this time has the money to build them." Too Much For Him. Voltaire could not speak much Eng lish. The reason why he refused to study the lunguuge Is tills: It was drilled Into him that "plague" was pronounced "plnlg,". which ho thought very pretty mid accepts Mo. Hut right on top of It lie was Introduced to "ague," which Ills ti-iu lier said must he culled "ii-giie." Finding it Impossible to reconcile tho difference, he went off Into a philosophical tantrum and (Imp lied the study.
