This Is the season of the year when the business man is taking stock of his situation. Is it not as advisable for a community to do the Within certain wide limitations, the future of Josephine county is what its people make It Naturally "endowed" a are ,few sections -of . a richly blessed 'country, it would aeem that only a most reprehensible sloth and short-sightedness of its citizens could hold this section back from a most auspicious growth. Its climate is the best on the con tinent and that of itself makes it attractive to the homeseeker. The beany and variety of its natural sur roundings is almost unsurpassed. Within a day's auto Journey of the ocean beach; and likewise of the now-capped mountains, the valley - Itself offers a moderate, equitable temperature, both delightful and In vigorating. Ia the resources which go to make . ap the material prosperity of any section,' It has an abundance. Tim ber stands in thousands of acres awaiting the axe and the sawmill. This county's mines are of proven richness. Every dollar taken from the rocky hills is that much new wealth added to the store of the world. It Is not acquired by being wrong from some less fortunate . member of the community. The soils of Josephine county are of exceptional richness when given a proper quota of water. In the Ir rigating of the otherwise arid sec tions, this district Is taking a most important step forward. The cli mate, coupled with soil conditions, makes for a diversity of agricultural production, which means a compara tive independence, taking the com munity as a whole. There is a real need for an awak ening of the county's people to the value of the newly proven method, the aids to profitable production and generally, those things which n large and better a community's life. It should not be possible for anyone to say that this is a city or county content with what has been. That spells retrogression. - Instead, the community's eyes should be steadily fixed on every possible chance for Improvement and progress. There should be more and better produc tion of the articles which will con tribute to material prosperity. This should be made a better place in 4 Macaroni 3 Pounds for 25c The Best Tillamook Cheese KINNEY & TRUAX GROCERY QUALITY FIRST which to live; both tor those, who have lived here aa well as those who will thereby be led to Join their tor tunes with ours. This necessarily means Improvement Let the people ot Josephine coun ty keep steadily before them the tact that they hold In their hands the possibility of building In this sun-kissed valley one of the finest congregation of people to be found anywhere In the world, and remain true to their knowledge ot that fact and It will be a condition, not to be wished tor, but consumated.

Attention Is again called to ths fact that questionnaires must be sent to all registrants who have en listed In either the army or navy. Relatives or friends of enlisted men should appear at the office of the local board and file an affidavit and sign a claim for deferred classifica tion on blanks provided for that pur pose. This will Insure such regis trants being placed In a deferred class and forestalls any possibility of their being posted as delinquents. Registrants who have made a claim for deferred classification on agricultural or Industrial grounds only, must not be alarmed if they receive a notice from the local board that they have been- placed In class 1. Notice of final classification will be sent when the district board has made Its classification on Industrial or agricultural grounds. v Ml FROM SOLDIER BOYS (Continued from page 1.) and i know It would Interest you. Of 'course we were'nt there long enough 'to see the best placses, but I think I, we did pretty well, anyway. We had a 48-hour liberty in London, and I you know that we can't see very much there In that short time. 'There Is one thing that we muat admit, the English people sure did treat us fine. I had a good chance .to learn bow to count English i money. I bad forgotten what I learn ed in school about It. It was lots easier with the coin than with the book. "We have a fine fleet of destroy- w as era over there now and are getting more all ths time. They are paint ed all colors and In all shapes. The people In the 'sub' can't tell wheth er the ship la going or coming. All the destroyers doing duty over there re paluted that way. I "The - and our boat made this last trip over atone, and had Colonel Homo and his party. We ran Into a storm on the way back, and for three days we Jul marked time, averaging J. 7 knota. We left I with J.JOO tuna of coal and if we had not alowed down as would : have run out before we got In. As It 'as we had the lowing geer out ready to tie towed In. We had l- 'than 25 tons of coal loft. "We only opened fire onre on 'this trip and It waa a false alarm. On the way to France with the con voy waa the time we had the excite ment. We really had aubs to fight off then. The general alarm waa loiimled one morning and we com menced firing, and so did all the other ships, and we stopped out. We were standing by with Id boilers all the time and In lens than a minute after the general alarm was Hound ed were making over 11 knota. We had lots of excitement like that all the way through the war sone. We were always on the Job and they couldn't slip up on ua. They have to get a bearing on us before they ran slip us a torpedo, and we run a ilg sag course all the war through the war sone. Destroyers always come out to meet us from the other side. "I gtieea we will keep making trips all winter, and I hope we don't get slipped a big torpedo and then have to bit that Ice water.' I always have Imagined that Ice water would be disagreeable swimming." Harden Bewda () replugs "I thank all my friends of Grants Pass for the presents I have receiv ed, and wish them a Merry Christ mas and the Happiest New Year In life," la the expression of Claud J. Harden now at Schofleld barracks, Honolulu. The Oi riatmaji Irinnor A letter from Ray J. Barrow, now stationed at Vancouver barracks, re ceived a few days ago speaks very complimentary of the Christmas dinner at the barracks, the menjh he said, consisting of: Turkey and dressing, cranberry sauce, giblet gravy, bread and butter, mashed po tatoes, sweet potatoes, peas, sweet corn, shrimp salad, celery, olives, lettuce, radishes, chocolate and co coannt cake. Jelly rolls, mince and apple pie, cheese, soda crackers, nuts snd candles, apples, oranges, bananas, cocoa, coffee, milk, cigars and clgarets. Ray says It takes a good man to get around such a dinner. He also says the boys received a package each from the different Christian as sociations over the country. Ilonth Roys to New York Mrs. Mae Booth received a letter from her eons. Clifton and Claud, stating that they were then on their way to New York. The boys are In the 17th Aero squadron and were firsts tatloned at Fort Sam Houston, Texas. They were then sent to Canaga and stayed there three months In training, and returned to Fort Worth. Texas. DULL AIID SHARP SHOOTING PAINS ISidiifan Lady Suffered Soto Paint b Back and Head, But Says Cardni Stopped These Bad Spell. Palmyra, Mich. Mrs. Cbas. T. Ful ler, of this place, writes: "In mi 1 got run-down, and I suffered great pain... with both dull and sharp shooting pains... also back and head. I was weak and could only drag around, and should have been In bed, for I really wasn't able to be up. At times I would have spells that would be so bad I'd have to go $ bed, and suffered intensely... I decided to try Cardul, and saw a great Improvement in less than a month's time. I used 7 or 8 bottles and was stronger... I got so much better that my strength returned snd my work was easy for me. Cardul did me a world of good. It built me up In health and strength. I haven't had one ot those bad spells since. I haven't had to talte any more medicine since or have any doctors either and have been able to do my work right along ...I recommend It to other women highly as the best medicine I know of for women who suffer from female trouble." , A If you suffer from female troubles, follow this advice.
