Thursday, November 7, 1918 LOCAL B R E V I T I E S AN D NEWS I T E M S Mrs. H. V. Adix collected Mon day the proceeds from t h e Belgian milk bottles. These amounted to $11.43 for the month o f October. H. P. Jochimsen formerly of this place but now working in a garage at Hood River, arrived Sunday morning from that place for a few days’ visit. He called at the News office Monday to re new his subscription. He said the apple crop at Hood River is being marketed and that it was a good one. We were glad to see Mrs. Della Vallen o f Ellwood again on our streets last week. She has been sick, due to a nervous break down for about a month, at the home here o f an aunt, Mrs. I. M. Park. Dr. Adix has been treating her and she is now con valescent, and we hope her full recovery will be rapid. Hallowe’en in Estacada was a most sane one. The youngsters had lots o f fun in an innocent way, as was right, but there was no rowdyism nor damage done to property. A gasoline sign be longing to one o f the garages, was hoisted halfway up the flag pole, and that was about the only external evidence the next morn ing, that the ghosts had been around. We received a friendly call or two from some hobgoblins and wiches who tried to scare us, and at first they seemed rath er startling. But we found what locked awful, was only a jack lantern. Witches have changed greatly since Tam o ’ Shanter’s time, and nobody needs now to run away from them. Keep the pep fai the boya who are peppering the « Give to the United W e s W ork Campaign.

Ernest Duus o f Camp Lewis, who has bepn seriously ill from ^ an attack of influenza and pneu monia. is well on the road to re covery. But at last accounts he is still confined in the hospital. Douglass Drill arrived Monday for a short furlough with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. A. Drill o f the Cazadero Power plant. Douglass would have been a member of the High School Sophomore class, if he had not enlisted. He is stationed at St. Helens and belongs to a motor cycle squad.' The Fourth Liberty Loan was oversubscribed by more than $800,000,000. This surplus is to be applied on the next loan which will be called for in the spring. It is more than probable that it will be named Victory Loan. It must not be thought that peace will end the necessity o f raising loans, because the government’s expenses will be enormous for some time yet to come. Mrs. Jess Bartlett and Mrs. Morton have been distributing posters around town in further ance o f the United War Work Campaign. They have also been soliciting the merchants for the use o f their advertising space to promote the good cause. These have willingly responded. The striking displays in the windows o f the East Clackamas Supply Co’s store and in that o f William Dale were arranged by them. Boner also has an artistic display, using large life like pictures o f some of the boys in the service to good effect. The extra pound o f sugar per month for each person, said Assistant Federal Food Adminis trator W. K. Newell in announc ing the new allowance, is not in tended for the more generous sweetening o f coffee or tea, or for making into candies or cakes or pies, or any such luxuries. It should be expressly understood that this extra sweetening is in tended to be used for sweetening the canned fruits when opened or for use in the cooking o f cran berries, apple sauce and other winter fruits. Any idea that there should be the slighest de gree of relaxation in the saving o f sugar is wrong.
