(Continued on Page Four) (Continued on Page Four) Remember Pearl Harbor —Every Payday Josephine County Remembered "Remember Pearl Harbor,” was the watch word last Monday, and Josephine county did not fail. With a grand total of $46,745.00 pur chase of bonds on that day, the citizens of the county told the whole world they were behind the boys who were in the front ranks fighting our battles. It was the least we could do to back them up. The valley, according to popula tion statistics, was up in the front ranks with a total of $4,025.00 for the day, and this was swelled later when additional bonds were pur chased. Monday morning's breakfast of the Illinois Valley Chamber of Commerce was held in the Drews hotel cafe, and the table was crowded. M. C. Athey reported for the chairman, who was unex pectedly called to Portland and could not be present. He an nounced that the above total was subscribed for December 7th, the anniversary of the treacherous at tack on Pearl Harbor. December's quota for the county is $79,299.00. In the evening Co. A of the Oregon State Guard held a test meeting. Members drove over the highways calling other members to the meeting. It was known that there would be a meeting, but the time was left to the men who drove the highways calling the men to assembly. Bugles and sirens and just common auto horns were used to notify members of the company to assembly. In case of a real emergency, the same method would be used to call members of the company to assemble at the Legion hall in Cave Junction. There was an excellent turnout, and while the company was assembled, plans were laid for a Christmas party which will be announced later. All in all the day was one that will be remembered, and the boys who are on the job fighting can rest assured that this valley will never forget what they are doing for us. O--------------------- BARN FULL OF HAY BURNED LAST MON. Last Monday morning the barn on the old Harold Hill place, now owned by J. C. Mauk, burned to the ground. The barn was full of hay for feeding his cows during the winter, and puts Mr. Mauk in a bad way for his milching cows this winter. Mr. Mauk was in the Model gro cery Monday morning and re turned to his home and while wash ing dishes after breakfast and looked out towards the barn and saw it in flames. He rushed out and was only able to save a set of harness. He does not know how the fire started as he had not been to the barn since feeding the cows and was not smoking while he was there. The fire is a complete mys tery. About a year ago the house on the place burned, but the barn was saved at that time. o BLESSED EVENT BORN—To Mr. and Mrs. Walter Doney of Cave Junction, Sun day, December 6th, at 8:30 p. m., at Lathrop's Maternity homo in Grants Pass, a baby girl, weighing 8 pounds 11 ounces.
