G.P. JOINS RED CROSS By D. W. H. Lincoln's birthday, the first day of the drive for membership In the Junior Red Cross, found all the Grants Pass schools, Ave In number, and one rural srhool, that of Hugo, fully orgsnlied and actively work ing as auxiliaries to Josephine chap ter American Red Cross. Exercise were held at the high school Tuesday afternoon and Rev. Melville T. Wire as organiser pre sented the charter. Mrs. W. W.

Miss Anita Crellln: deputy treasurer. Mrs. V. W. McKlnney. All the students are extremely en thusiastic and Mr. Sabln as super visor for the girls and C. H. Wood ward supervisor for the boys, will hive 00 occasion to worry as to the mount of work they will accomp llsh. The girls expect soon to have an exhibit of their work, which consist of layettes for the Belgian babies. A name for the auxiliary will be voted on at once and will probably be "Grants Pass High School auxll lary."

F American Expedition Fores. Dec. SO, 'IT and Jan. H 'IK. Hear Folk: This letter, which will be censored I to let you know that I have ar rived safely in France. Trip across was rather tiresome, we wore life preserver at all time, even using them for pillow at night. Saw no submarines or anything suspicion Didn't get seasick coming over and I was surely surprised a we had quite a storm which lasted for 14 hours, tables, piano, chair and everything sliding all over the ship. The town w are In la quite a little burg and except for a few French soldier and German prisoner one would hardly know there was a war. Our barracks here are not aa good a barrack In the lr. 8. we have dirt floor which make It much har der to keep clean, and cloth window panes. The climate Is damp and fog gy, wood Is very scarce but we man age to keep warm. Things cost more here than In the V. 8. gueas Ihey think lT. S. soldiers have lot or money. I know you are wondering what kind or a Christmas I had here In France. Well. It was fine. Had tur key for dinner, wllh mashed pota toes, gravy, dressing, bread, butter, nnts. cake, flga and coffee can you beat that at home? The engineer regiment gave the poor children or thl town, whose rather were killed In war, a big Chrlstma tree with present 1 carried a little French girl over lo the tree and got her a present. Had music from engineer regimental band. Some of the little French girls sang several American put riot I.- songs In French. Iit of young ladles were out They like the American soldier boys and American hand music. The Y. M. C. A. gave an .entertainment, and served lunch afterwards. Had a good time. On the J7th I got the Christmas package from home, waa first person In the company to get the Christmas box and you can't Imagine how en vious the other boys were. It was the best Christ maa package I ever received and most appreciated. Soldier pleasures are few here and he has to make the best of hi surroundings, but let me tell you It Is making real men out of some of the follows here. We are seeing a few of the hardships of war without coming In contact with real fight ing. I received a Granta Pasa Courier yesterday You don't know how much I enjoyed It. coming from home. Am learning a rew French word and hope to be able to talk quite a hit. Reading matter Is scarce here, o would like to have you send me some magazines. Send two or three a week separately, so I will be able to get some or them. Have been out with crews unload ing boats and making roads. We may stay here for some time. Have seen no place that compares to Ore gon either In IT. 8. or Europe.. Be lieve me, ne roaming for me after the war is over. Am getting along fine and have had no trouble In my duties as a non-cominlssloned officer so far, and have never had a single private dis obey my orders. My greatest wish, however. Is to come out of the army with a clean record, which I would rather have even though I should end as a common private. Everything goes well with me so far, am In good health and content ed with everything Good bye, Your loving son, WORTH. Address: Corp. J. K. Hamilton, Co. B ROlst Engineers, A. E, F. France.

Speaking last night at a dinner attended by delegate to the AU-Knsslan conven tlon, in session here, A. A. Dublikoff a former member of the. executive committee of the provisional Rus sian duma, told of the arrest of Em peror Nicholas. M. Itttbllkoff was chosen to go to the front, 'where the emperor was conferring with his generals and take the monarch Into custody. "The arrest was without Incident, said M. Uuhllkoff. "for the reason that the emperor was so feeble that a child might have done whut 1 did. "The news of the overthrow of the government had preceded me to the front, and 1 was able to enter the emperor's quarters without trouble. It was a pathetic movement when 1 enme before the emperor, for he had Just received a letter from the em press, Informing him of the Illness of two of their children. As I en tered the emperor turned to me and said that he was so weak that he could not read the letter until he had a cup of tea. I waited for him to drink his tea, and then placed him under arrest. He was a very willing and submissive prisoner. "Politically, Nicholas Romanoff I dead In Russia. No one now hears Us name spoken." Success Without Struggle. Persons who have succeeded In any line have had to struggle for the tri umphs that came their way. The mud to success Is not rose strewn by miy means. It Is a hard, wenrlsome thor oughfare, almost Impassable In places. Therefore, If we are so foolish as to conclude that hulf-hearted or careless endeavors will result In our work be ing classed as up to the stiindnrd, or success suddenly casting a golden halo around ns, we nre doomed to disap pointment.
