"Plans for after-war colonization of American soldiers on the cut-over lands of the south will shortly be taken up with the federal authorities et Washington, where Congress is al ready considering the question. An nouncement to this effect was made toy Clement S. Ucker, vice-president of the Southern Settlement and De velopment Organization of Baltimore, in a communication to the Cut-Over Land Department of the Southern Pine Association." The foregoing quotation has a world of meaning for Central Ore gon. The south is getting busy al ready to insure the placing of re turned soldiers on its lands. Any thing we can do to develop our irri gated sections and bring the veterans back to them will be more than worth while. salt) "Mr. tlumkopfr,-JovlHUy.

Virginian Who Has Lived Abroad Urges Reverence for the Emblem of the Country. "Why does the average American not salute the flag?" asked R. O. Out cault, a Virginian who has lived abroad for the last ten years, according to the Washington Post. "On the day of the draft parade In Washington the only man I saw salut ing the regimental colors was a police man, probably an old soldier who has learned the love and reverence which every man who has served feels for the flag. When I and the friend with me a Britisher bared our heads every time the flag of a regiment went past a few persons In the crowd be gan, somewhat shamefacedly, to fol low onr example. "In London or In Paris yon would have no choice. Any man who kept his hat on when the colors of a regi ment passed would have It knocked off for him, if nothing worse happened to blm. I do not mean, of course, that one should salute the thousand and one flags carried In sucb a procession, but every one should at least bare his head when a regimental flag goes past. That's what thousands of men are go ing to die for before we are twelve months older. The least one can do Is to salute It while we can before It goes somewhere in France." ALLEGED GAMBLER ARRESTED. Inquiry has been made here as to the record of Ed. Crewe, formerly of Bend, who has-been arrested on the charge of passing a bad check in Washington. The district attorney t Belllngham writes that Crewe was in Bend a year ago and was convict ed on some similar charge, as he is a well known gambler and has also been in court In Idaho, California and Washington before this time.

"Ob, Adolph, how lovely I" scuggled his wife. "You must have held won derful hands, Adolph. What did you have Jacks down, or a full kind, or something?" i!How about a little celebration?" Switzerland's Water Power. There are no coal mines In Switzer land, but there is "white coal" or wa ter power in abundance that can be transformed into light, beat and pow er. An electric railway climbs a tun nel inside the Jungfrau mountain. Halfway on the journey a good hot luncheon Is served at the restaurant. In a station hollowed out from the rocks. The temperature of the tunnel In this snow-covered mountain Is but little above the freezing point, even in summer, but the trains are lighted, heated and driven up the mountain, and the cooking and beating at the restaurant are all accomplished by the utilization of the Icy cold water run ning down the mountain side as wuter power to generate electricity. Few countries In the world are so well supplied with potential wuter power as Switzerland, and with this power fully developed she need never again see ber industries at Die mercy of a neighbor who might become at uny time un alien enemy. at this time last year.

This Is verified by the Portland 8 look yards receipts for 1917, which show that tho receipts of hogs of Oregon origin In 1917 were only about 76 per cent of tho receipts of 1916.

The month of December, 1917, is reported by tho local weather bureau as being the warmest on record for the past 17 years, and conditions during Jan uary, 191S, were very similar to those of December, but with much less pre cipitation.

Steps Drive Business Away. Store entrances now are flush with the sidewalk, or as nearly so as con ditions will permit, observes a mer chant In the New York Sun. We store keepers are aware thut customers art more likely to walk straight Into store when unimpeded than to go ur even one short step. Ranks were the last to realize the handicap Imposed by steps nt the entrances, and you don't see architects planning bank buildings now with steps at the fronl as they did In the old days.
