Patre Eijrht Illinois Valley News, Thursday, May i, 1911 — OFF IN A CORNER WITH PHIL SNORT Dear Ed: This is going to be a very ihort letter, for I am not mentally and physically fit to do • much writing. Sickness has been with us two old folks here, in our home in Elk Valey. It would not seem so bad were it not that friends of very long standing are' passing and we are unable to at-1 tend their last rites. This has hap­ pened on many occasions and prob-I ably will hapen again. A week; ago Monday one of our highly es­ teemed neighbors was laid to rest and we were unable to be there. I Way back in 1904 I became ac- quainted with four sisters, three' of them I have known for a great j number of years, and I have often j wondered were it possible for God I to create finer ladies: “/Xunt Vio­ let. Aunt Deal and Aunt Minnie." I havt. watched their children grow up from small children and babies to adults with married children of their own. I played with and loved , those little boys and girls of long, ago; indeivl, they seemed like my' very own. Yes, those kiddies of over forty years ago, were all my friends at that time, and I do not 'believe there has ever been a min­ ute that friendship has relaxed. When one gains the friendship of children he gains a treasure that lasts ami is beyond price, I have always loved children and shall go on loving them to the end. If children love you know it anti there is no pretense about it. PHIL. -------------- O-— ...... I Recruits Needed Now for Women’s Land Army Oregon women who can assist in harvesting Oregon’s vital war crops this spring and summer have been asked to register early with their local county farm labor em­ ployment office by Mrs Mabel Mack, assistant state farm labor supervisor in charge of the wo­ men’s land army. Both the re­ cruitment anil the placement of farm labor this year is in charge of extension agricultural agents. Shortage of men w >rkers this year will require greatly increased numbers of women workers, Mack says. She estimates about 40,000 placements of men will be necessary thw year compared with 25,000 last year. They will be used not only for field work and harvesting of sea­ sonal crops throughout the state, but also will be placed in full-time jobs such as ranch cooks, dairy workers or for general farm work. Although it will be a few weeks before the peak demands for wo­ men farm workers will arise, Mrs. Mack points out that the local county farm labor offices are get­ ting their records in shape and making lists of women workers who will be available when they are needed. Some of these mem­ bers of the womens land army are ilready being called on by farm­ even before harvest periods of seasonal crops. Women farm workers may be­ come members of the women’s land army and will be eligible to wear the special WLA uniform and in- signia. ■ - ■ o— Illinois Valley employers of transportation workers are told they may obtain a bulletin explain­ ing employer's rights under selec­ tive service regulations and prop­ er deferment procedure for key employes.
