THANKSGIVING man of foreign birth from the woods."" They are fighting in the Austrian, German, Greek, Italian, French, English and Russian armies. They are splendid soldiers. In the spruce camps of Oregon and Washington are to be found a steadily decreasing number of Americans. The foreign-born element still prepon derates, however, and often these men are not citizens. Among the men in the woods there is to be found a certain percentage who have developed an outright antagonism to this country and its institutions. We will not stop to consider or analyze the causes of their mental attitude. They are bitter. They have no interest in the nation's affairs at home and are not concerned with its success on the battlefields. Their resentment is mani fest. Their influence for evil is world-wide. "In the meantime until the government can act every effort should be directed to the getting out of spruce logs by any and every means. If the farmers can assist by getting out material, encourage them to do so. More men for the camps may be re leased by cessation of road building for the present. No energy should be wasted additional man power in the spruce camps is our first essential obligation." Q RESIDENT WILSON, in his Thanksgiving proclamation, makes no attempt to recount the specific things for which the nation at this time has cause to be grateful. Had he particu larized doubtless he would have given the result of the second Liberty loan a prominent place among those things for which the nation should be thankful. For the great result of the second Liberty loan campaign, with nearly 10,000,000 Americans rallying to the financial sup port of the nation and subscribing over four and a half billion dollars for the purchase of Liberty loan bonds, is a cause for deep thanksgiving in the heart of every loyal American. President Wilson says the nation should be thankful that we have been given the opportunity to serve mankind as we once .crved ourselves in the great day of our Declaration of Indepen dence by taking up arms against the tyranny that threatened to master and debase men everywhere. In a time when the nation's industrial and financial re sources are being tested as never before, when every state of the Union is offering its best in men and money and the products of the soil the people of Oregon should be thankful that this state has responded promptly and adequately to every demand. It should be cause for genuine thankfulness that the grave responsibilities thrust upon us in this world crisis, the large sacrifices which many have been called upon to make, have given all of us a more complete understanding of the duties of citizenship, the first of which is a lofty conception of real patriotism. We should be grateful that the hour for action disclosed in Oregon a stalwart manhood quick to answer the nation's call, as Americans always have done. We should find reason for thank fulness no less sincere in remembering the unselfish devotion with which our women have risen to their part in the great emergency, for in no small degree has theirs been the highest possible exemplification of patriotism. Upon these women will rest, almost wholly, the mighty duty of keeping the homes and the families intact in the father's absence. The future of the state itself depends upon them. But in the midst of the country's stress let us not forget a large measure of thankfulness for the steady progress we have made in peaceful ways. Let us be thankful for the love of knowl edge, for the sense of fairness and justice toward our fellowmen and for a keener realization of our duties and ideals. If ever the world needed the welding and strengthening influence of such ideals it needs it now when men's thoughts seem turned mostly to war and its destructive forces. Let us be thankful that we have been given an opportunity to aid the great mission of America toward giving to the world liberty and justice and security from the tyranny that threatens to master and debase all nations and all men. A Story of Married Life REVELATIONS OF A WIFE By Adele Garrison THE WAR AND ROADS OHERE is n great probability that it may become necessary to greatly curtail road construction as a war measure, lim iting new work largely to the main thoroughfares. The increas ing scarcity and cost of labor and material may render expendi tures on roads at this time unadvisable, but there is still another reason why road building may be curtailed. It is indicated in an editorial printed in the Timberman, of Portland, which is in part as follows : "Only about one-third of the necessary spruce logs for air plane material are being produced. The weather conditions from now forward in the spruce belt will not be conducive to in creasing the log output until spring, and even then unless men can bo found to do the work there is no definite assurance that the situation will be much improved. The spruce timber is ob tainable ; steel can bo procured ; the mills are capable of produc ing the material. The men necessary to perform the service of getting out the logs are not in the woods. Whore are they? Some have been drafted, some are in the forestry regiments for service in France, others are engaged in shipbuilding and similar lines of work which pay equal if. not higher wages and, in some cases, with less hours of work. "For the past three years there has been a steady exodus of. What Madge and Dloky Saw in tha Woods Near the Cosgrove Farmhouse When Dicky told me that for fifteen years the fate of Robert Sararin had been unknown, I felt that at last I h?!d in my hands the threads of the mystory of the Oosjrove farmhouse In the Cut skills which had so puzzled me After our first supper at the farmhouse the evening before, we had been shown a collection of pictures in the farmhouse parlor from the brush of Mrs Cosgrove' brother, Robert Savarin. Dicky had recognised the artist's wrk at once, and had pronounced the collec tion to be worth at least $50,000. The hysterical joy of Mrs. Cosgrove at the announcement, her ejaculation clever ly stopped by her husband, "what this will mean to Robert!" the midnight ex cursion of Mr. and Mrs. Cosgrove .nd one of their sons, and the anxiety of '-.he woman to keep secret the difference be tween her twin sons ali these things pointed, in my mind, to some dangerous secret in possession of the Cosgrove fam ily. But Kleky's words had given me the clue. Robert Savarin must be alive, and for some reason his sister and her family were keeping secret the fact that he wjs living. I knew how Dicky would ridicule any such suggestion on my part. I resolved not to wnste any time telling him. "How wonderfully interesting!" I said, and I did not have to assume auy enthu siasm, for -I was really wildly excited over the story. "Don't be mean, Dicky. Go on, tell me the whole story, there's a dear." "All right," Dicky responded promptly, "on one condition, that you walk aloi:g while I'm talking. -I want to get to cast ing some time today." I jumped up with alacrity. "Thift's a bargain," I said, slipping ray hand into his. "Now proceed." "Well, gcutlc render," Dicky bean, oratoricnlly, "the story is simply this: "Fifteen years ago Robert Savarin was the romantic mystery of the New York studios. Ho was one of those fclbws with inighty lofty ideals about his work, and he never lowered them the way th-it most of us have." There wasa just a tingn of self-reprouchful bitterness ,n Dicky's tone, but it was gone in an in stant. "He had worked like a truck horse or years in the Paris studios. His work was years ahead of his dny. and for a long time there wns practically no sale for t, but he stuck to it doggedly, painting pic ture after picture, which commanded such small prices that he would never sell one until actually driven to it by imminent starvation. "lie was a mysterious sort of a fellow. All the traditions of the studios say he was a prince at heart, generous to a fault, shy as a timid girl, but with a tendency to melancholy that grew more pronouaced as his chance for success seemed to 'et farther and farther away. Tha Furtive Stranger. "There was some sort of vague story going the rounds then of Savarin'a en tanglement with some girl rumor jaid he was terribly hard hit. At any rate, he suddenly disappeared from the kn vwl edge of every one who had ever knj.vn him. "He had few intimates, and after a perfunctory police search he was givjn up as dead, and the paintings he had l;ft in his studio were seized for the imall debts he owed and sold at auction. "It has not been long now since his work commenced to have a vogue. The real merit of it has been discovered. 'L'ne big picture dealers have been quietly get ting hold of all his stuff they could find, and the prices on them have leaped oigh er and higher, in the way such things have. "How this collection up here came ro he overlooked I can't imagine. If he's really dead, it means a fortune to thg'je people. "By Jove!" Dicky's exclamation was in such a different tone than the story he had been telling me that it startled ma. His voice was low, excited, and as he spoke he drew me aside quickly into the shelter of some hushes. As he did so, I caught sight of a man furtively slipping along the bank of the stream, casting quick glances from side to side, as if looking for some one. Dicky Reoognbes Him. , Just ahead of us there was a magnifi cent oak with one big limb curved in mi ;h curious fashion that it turned down to the ground, making a complete arch. It made an unusual landmark and to the man we were watching it was evidently a meeting place of some kind, for as soon as he saw it he stopped beneath it and, leaning agaiust its trunk, looked search ingly in the direction in which we iad come. Dicky put his lips close to my ear ml murmured: "There's something crooked going on here, that's a cinch. That fellow is one of the hangers-on of the worst crook among New York picture dealers. We'll just wait right here and see what's up." We did not hnve'long to wait for de velopments) and when they came I could not forbear a little triumphant moue at Dicky. For, slipping as noiselessly as an In dian through the underbrush, came Mrs. Allis, our fellow boarder at Coagrove's. whom I had instinctively distrusted and suspected of designs upon the paintings in the farmhouse parlor.
