WHAT THE XAVY IS DOING Because there has been as yet no great sea battle, it might seem that our navy, up to date, had played lit tle part in the war. On the contrary, the increasing roll of victories on land could never have been accomplished without the navies, for to them belongs the cred it for the transportation of men, supplies and food, failing which those victories would have been im possible. The transportation of 2,000,000 American soldiers to France with a loss of only 300 is in itself a marvel lous feat. We now have 500 ships on duty in European waters. Our battleships with those of Greet Britain hold the German fleet bottled in the North sea. At Archangel and Vladivostok the .big ships stand on guard, while the destroyers pnd chasers ride the Atlantic day and night, hunting the U-boats to their death. If following the traditions of the sea, the German battleships make a dash for freedom rather than tamely surrender, they will not catch us unawares. Our navies only wait the chance once more to prove them selves a fighting body worthy of their country's pride. uojonei Kooseveit spent a great deal of his time In late years advo eating national preparedness; when this nation entered the war he offer ed his own services; his four sons enlisted with bis consent and ap proval; one has been severely wounded; another lies dead under the sod of France. Yet some neonl says he is a reactionary, Is unpa triotic. Teddy has his faults prob ably almost as many as some of those who condemn him but to say he Is not patriotic is giving onself the He. The Finns were forced to choose a monarchy because the German sword was held at their throat. If the Finns will just ' wait a few weeks there will be no German You Pay BUT OUR BULK COFFEES, 15c TO eOc POUND. KINNEY & TRUAX GROCERY QUALITY FIRST sword and they can have a republic, which is their choice. The Bolsheviks say the allies are "liars." The Bolsheviks might be likened to a hundred thousand men like Pancho Villa, turned loose In one concentration camp. The amount ot hell they can raise is limited only by the scope of their territory. In his speech on the 27th ot last May Wilson said: "Politics Is ad journed; ; the elections will go to those who think least ot it." A first class hanging bee is due in the Bolshevikl camp just as soon as- the allies finish Germany. t: A!Gf SCENT CITY MAN Russell Jennings, of Crescent City, and Miss Opal Madalene Hlller, of Grants Pass, were united In mar riage by Rev. Melville T. Wire, at the Methodist parsonage at 7 o'clock, Tuesday evening, November 5. Mr. Jennings is one of the enter prising young business men ot Cres cent City, having a large garage in that place. He cares for the cars of three stage lines; operates trucks and has chrome-hauling contracts from the government. Miss Hiller Is a popular high school girl of this city and an accom plished musician. A host of friends wish these young people happiness.

The bonds should be handed to your local bank before Thursday, the 7th, which will give time for delivery at the Federal Re serve bank on the 9th. P.S. Not Post Script but pits and shells Many fruit pits and nut shells have come in during the past two weeks, but the committee is urging that those who have not sent theirs in, do so right away. Each day a strong er appeal fo pits and Bhells is re ceived. What would you do if you heard a call for help from a man being gassed? Would you aid him then or wait until it was more con venient?. That call has come to us and we must answer right away. The influenza epidemic is holding back this campaign throughout the United States. Josephine County is therefore unusually anxious to turn In her supply as early as possible. Outlying districts are urged to make a special effort to send their collec tions In. If they have been collect ed at the school house and the teacher Is absent from the district, perhaps tho clerk has a key to the building. If so, the committee In charge, would like very much to have them sent. Tl Portland, Nov. fl.r The food ad ministration has removed, all re- trlctions on the use or sale of wheat for poultry or stock feeding. A ban was put on th8 use of wheat foi such purposes soon after tho food laws became effective. In a bulle- FROM S TO 9o FOR THE EMPTY CAN. tin Issued yesterday by M. H. Hous er, second vice president ot the food administration grain corporation, the repeal ot the rule is announced. The larger supply ot wheat In this country and the good crop prospects for next year are held to be respon sible tor the easing up ot tBe regula tions, which apply to all parts ot the United States. Farmers and stockmen, however, are not expected to get much ad vantage from the new ruling, as with the government's fixed wheat price this cereal will cost much more than corn, oats, barley or other grains for stock feeding. The farm er, will find it more profitable to sell his wheat to the mills or the government, and buy coarse grains for his stock. Somewhere In France there Is an American boy fighting tor you. Have you proved yourself worth his won. derful effort by finishing his sock on time? T ETTERS from our boy in the "trench es and from the women in canteen and other war work, all bring to us the sam8 mes sage SEND US NEWS FROM HOME. World news is all rijrht, but OUR BOY8 want NEWS OF THIS TOWN. fhe, want the home newspaper. Publishers are prevented from sending their papers free to anyone, even boys in the service. Consequently a national movement has been started by Col. 'illiam Boyce Thompson of New York, who is acting as President of the Home Paper Scrce 0f America to give the boys what they arc calling for. Every community is joining the movement. Let us see that our boys are not f orgotti r , Send to the publisher of this newspaper whatever amount of money you can 5 cents or $50.00. We will publish a, each week of those contributing, and the amounts contributed. Every cent received will be used to send this paper to our boys at the front, (f at the end of the war, there is any surpl lt8 will be turned over to Committee. . There is no profit in this to the publj3her even in normal times, subscriptions are r,0t gold at a profit. With war prices prevailing, ,,nci the high rate of postage on papers sent to France, our cost will scarcely be covered by our fuiJ subscription price.
