Interests of Fair week snd the Initial week of the public schools added to the activities of a patriotic nature hsve forc ed things socisl almost entirely into the background thia week. After the hoys and girls were all safely etarted in their oew year of achool work intereat turned to the Lane county fair where it waa found that here, aa in ao many thinga, war time eimplieity. economy and en phaaia on basic tbinga with the frill' left off waa the keynote. Many changra in the usual order of county faira waa sig oificantly noticeable especially in regard o women's activitiea. The Red Cross ooths occupying prominent pliicea teati 3ed to the great labor of love thai the a-omcn of the county hare performed luring the past year and the substitution of cleverly made-over clothing for the uaual fol-de-rola of embroidery also brought out a new note. The lack of the ilda ahowa and aubatitution of worth while entertainmenta every night waa in deed a pleating note for while the kiddies were not deprived of their fun,, on the merry-go-round and fcrria wheel the op portunity for entertainment probably wua more general than it would have been with the naual ahowa for which no one feels nowadaya that the money soouia be spent. Many women of the city were buey with the work of the fourth Liberty Loan, working morning and afternoon In the :hamber of commerce rooma aending out issesemente and literature and plauning tot the Mothcra' Day parade which waa seul. with ao much inspiration thia af ternoon. ; 1 ! Red Cross his claimed more attention :han uaual too thia week, in the effort :o fill tha quota of aphagnum moaa pada oy the end of the week and officials ara now rejoicing over the fact that again tha chapter baa come up to standard and through the aplendid work of lta mem bers made the required numl.er of paua. r:ns. case gives AFFAIR FOR CHOIR Mra. William Moll Caae entertained the girla of the Preabyterian church choir on Thursday evening at a merry beefateak fry, at Coburg bridge on the McKruaie, The gueata motored out to the picnio grounda late in the afternoon and after, building camp fire, enjoyed frying beefateak for a part of the deli cious picnic aupper aerved by tha hoit-ess.iylfter- supper, muaic and conversa tloa -about the camp lira aerved to while owsg. la pleasant evenvog-aftcr which they ratlav-d back by moonlight. The young ladiea of the choir who eujoyed thia af fair were: Miaa Loia Gray, Miss Virginia Oray. Miaa Helen Dresaer, Miaa Marjorie Dreaeer, Miaa Margaret Dixon, Miaa Le ona Maxwell, Miaa Helen Smith, Mra. A. J.

This you can't afford to overlook. In spite of the high price of leather we have secured a line of Shoes that are made of extra good quality and with careful attention to small details that mean Comfort and Satisfaction to the wearer, our price has advanced only slightly. They are made to Fit your Feet and this is worth considerable during these days of worry and hustle. These are some of the reasons why Trice's Shoes are so popular In Lane county.

Among the spoils .of war recovered by Ameri can aoldiera in their victorious fighting through the Chateau-Thierry region are numeroua paira of fine binoculara, baa- tily discarded by German officers. In some sections, where the Ysnkees had made a audden attack, and Frits bad been obliged to "beat it" quickly, it aeemed to have been raining field glaasea when the victora reached the aceoe. A canteen worker attached to one of the Y. M. C. A. buta near the front waa talking with a "hard guy" in khaki. The "hard guy" was from east St Louis. 'Why is it," said the Red Triangle man, "that the Germane threw away a many paira of binoculara when they got ready to beat it? The glasses weigh practically nothing, and, aa they arc attached to a atrap bung around the neck, they wouldn't be any trouble to carry. I can underatand a aoldier ahd ding bis overcoat, knapaack, rifle and tin bat, if he waa in a hurry to get thither from hither, but why unload aa article that ia expenalre and hard to get at any price, when It ia as small and light as a pair of field glasseB? "Listen, bo, replied the east St. Louis soldier. "Them Huns ain't mak ing no aucker play when tbey cana them field cheatera. They knowa aomethiug, doea them Hcines. "After goin' up agin us Yanks a couple tlmee, they aavvy that they ain't going to need no glaasea to ace ua 'cauac we're goin' to be right on toppa 'em. No, air, when they was chaain' them Rooaiana all over the map over on the east front, they had to have glasses to see their prey, but they siu't no guy in the boche army that la ao near-aighted he won't aee us Americans if he just sticks around- 'What them birda figures they need Is speed, not glasses. And take it from me, that ain't bad figuring either." American Woman Gives Soda Fountain for Yankee Tars London, Aug. 22 (By mail) For a sailor in the American navy .",000 miles ind more from home, in a land where the Yankee aoda fountain dosan't grow ex cept in a few so-called "American" etorea in London, ahore leave at a certain Irish port was a melancholy affair. Some such vision ss this must have come to Mrs. Henry R. Rae. an Ameri can woman, when ahe gave $1,000 to the navy to be apent in adding to the com fort of the sailors at the port in ques tion. After much official corrcapondence between the American naval headquar ters at London, the navy department, the American commander st the Iriah port and Mrs. Kae, it waa finally decided to purchase a aoda fountain for the ahore reat atation. The result is thst the camp now pos sesses on marble-topped, 6-foot fountain with gas-making mschins snd the re mains of 63 gallons of strawberry syrup, S2 of raspberry. SI of pineapple. 14 of Cocoa paate and 6,000 pounda of gran ulated sugar. Gasoline Is Fully at Dan gerous as Dynamite Many automobile ownera do sot fully realise the danger connected with the carcleaa handling of gasoline, comnicnia the Popular Science Monthly for August, In a general way they recognise the ex plosive power of ths liquid, but few of them know how great that explosive power ia. A writer in one of the maga sines devoted to ths automobile trade seeks to msks this clear and more im preeslve by tomparing the exploaive power of gasoline with that of dyna mite. He pointa to the fact that gas line even at low temperature, constantly de velops an explosive vapor. Five gallons of gasoline will generate 8,000 cubit feet of gas, which, if ignited, expands 4.000 tlmea. One gallon of gasoline, properly mixed with air and compressed, ia equal to about eighty-three pounda of dyna mite in explosive force. What makes gas oline particularly dangeroua is the fact that it is more rspidly ignited snd ex ploded than dynamite. One can nevr be too careful in bsndling gaaoline under any and all circumstances. American Airmen Bomb Road Swarming With Hun Troops London. Sept. 19. One bundred and j fifty American airmen awooped down oa a road crowded with German aoldiers during the advance into the St. Mlhiel sector, dropping bomba and firint ma chine gnns, according to stories of Amer ica's first personally conducted l it lie printed here.
