We will be here in camp about a week, already one week. It is as much to give the girls an outing as to have one ourselves, rather more bo, as we could have done something else, but they could not. As we came and by the way I wish you could have seen one of our car riages, painted black with bright red roses and trreen leaves in panels made with gilt lines. The lining inside Hmreous striued suit wmcn comes down in a sort of canopy around the top; on the floor a fine unentai rug, on wmcn you recline wun cusnions. as the Yila. or carriage sways over these awful, awful roads. You never Baw, even in- your wildest dream, such roads, but someway we get over them safely and the Yilas are high swung with good springs so one feds no jolts, might, if of such disposition, get seasick but, I quite enjoy this luxurious way of traveling. I did not enjoy the sisrht of many -many Turkish soldiers marching into the Kusma or Barracks, some zuuu new men, do not look good to peace loving Americans. I had a marvelous trip the day be fore I came out here to Yenije, a village 'way up in the mountain top tip top. We started at 6 clock time, & sun time, in the Reo truck. 10 of us. all Americans, this time, carrying our breakfast with us. A wonderful drive across the plains, through sev eral Turkish villages and through two large herds, of water buffaloes. It was funny to see the beasts lift their heads and come toward us until Hosford Effendi sounded the horn, when away they ran. -Such awkward, .luirmu. utrlv animals, trd ugly in ac- rns as well.

(The rest of us stood shud dering on the bank) and op a rocky steep on the opposite, but that "spec ial providence" was with us- and wc are all alive and intact, and so, strange tovsay, is the truck, if not the former, at least the latter, and it doesn't seem as if anything not alive could climb and groan as that truck does when we "Misha" start out joy riding. We finally reached a village way up on the mountainside, sur rounded with such fine cornfield you would have thought yourself back in Kansas. The natives all crowded around us and Dr. White talked in Turkish to them in his genial way chat would bring a smile from a stone. Then on climbed on the run ning board, rifle on back, and escort ed us to a grove of pine treea on a hill further up. In Oregon it wooU be a rather measly grove, bat in Tar-1 key almost a forest, sad certainly cool, clean, and commanding a view I cant begin to describe.

The women go with "faces open" (un veiled) and in other ways not strict The people of Yenije, which was be fore the war Armenian, are mostly Albanians, and one of them told Dr. White their fathers had bean driven from their country and they iiad gone from one place to anouar. zinaiiy land ins here, but he Mthatteally added, "we an not happy."

We nut un little stoves and made coffee, fried bacon and eggs and soon bad breakfast spread. we aaa doughnuts'with our coffee, and Mrs. White brought some of her delicious blackberry muffins. Alter Kacnei Reed and I had washed the dishes we all gathered around on blankets an pillows, while Miss Anthony (who knows now) read uoa ox tne ureav Outdoors and others of Van Dyke's. We had in all a lovely . restful day, having dinner there and driving home in early evening. We stopped at Yenije to take pictures and they let us ride around on the crude arrange ments they have for threshing grain. I think I deBcibed tha manner of threshing in my last letter to Cad. No letters have cqpie through for a long time supposo they have gone Turkish post which does not deliver to any "Giaocus" these days. Noth ing new in our special section, ercept a duty is charged on all goods at Samsoun by the Mustapha Kemal party, (he is one of "the Pasha boys") tho' admitted free at Constant, where the Sultan has the power, also in some 'placeB they are charging a tax on the American properties and teacherB' salaries, also Kemal tactics. N. E. R. sent word to personnell at Suvas, Marsovan and other interest ing points that they could leave whenever they felt best, but $11 are staying -and we hope to carry on this winter. Will have many new pupils if political conditions nermit. Of course no one pretends to know what may happen anywhere. In the meantime, write often, and all the news youxan scrape up, about every body and everything. The latest American politics we had is, that Uryan is running on fTohi ticket. Good-by for this time. Manchie. Being out here in the woods reminded me so much of you, I had to write and tell- you all about this camping trip partner of so many otner camp ing trips. If you want a fairly good description of Mission life, read "Goodly Fellowship." I have had many chuckles over it. "The Station Meetings" for instant and we are .all kinds right here on our own Com pound. Sometimes when I look back on the old life at Forest Grove there, this one well, they do not fit, some way. But 1 was no, tnat is enougn, must go now. Lots of love to you and Motherland all the girls and any one else you think would like a little tove, a little kiss from me. . DOLLIE.

At the hut meeting of the Con gregational Board held in Portland, Tuesday, President Clark of Pacific University, outlined the plan for the financial campaign which is be ing launched for the purpose of add ing very materially to the resources ol the college. The olan was received very en thusiastically by , the Board who voted full and hearty endorsement! and promised active support, a concrete evidence of the enthusiasm aroused came in the form of an in itial subscription f flOOP made by one of the members of the Board, Mr. U. G. Colton, of Portland. The case of Pacific University is to h presented bv Pres. Clark next week at the Washington State Con greeational Conference at Spokane and the week following at the Ore ?on Conference to be held at Forest Grove. ' annuel FriMd f L. W. Ckaadler Locatee Uaanewa Gray, at Father at J. M. and A. O. Hcffaaaa, Ahu.lam F. Hoffman, the father of Mayor 1. N. Hoffman and Coun cilman A. V. noiiman, waa a an dier in the Civil War. At the bat tle of Hinionarv Rida-e. in IMS, he waa wounded and aa a result of thia wound he later made the eupreaa aacrifice for hie country in the hoa- pital at NaekviUe, Tenn. at aaa en liated ia Company L 86th regiment, Volunteer Infantry, from Montgom ery County, ImL, and during the time he waa in the hoapital he wrote home to hie wife, giving the hoapital name and the number of the ward in which he waa lying. Uii wife re plied to thia letter under ante 01 December 14, 1863, but before thia letter reached the hoapital he died from hia wounda and waa buried. Hia death occurred on December 16. All efforta to locate hia burial place failed. Twenty-four year, ago Jar. A. u. Hoffman waa in the South and aought to locate hia father'a grave by peraonal eearch, but a hurried bualneaa call made hia presence at home necessary, A later trip waa made for the aame purpose but a audden illneaa prevented the search and efforta were made through the superintendent of the national ceme tery at various times but without results. It was practically given up that the records of his burial had been lost in transit to Washington. But' a few weeks ago Mr. Hoff man mentioned them atter to Dev. L. W. Chandler who informed him that a friend of Mr. Chandler waa then superintendent of the cemetery and that Mr. Chandler would ash his friend to take a personal interest in the search. Mr. Chandler had lived near Nashville preached on a charge there, and it was there that he mar ried Mrs. Chandler, Hence he knew something of conditions and when he wrote to the superintendent he em phasised many thingB that Mr. Hoffman could not have known. The result was that last week a let ter came that the grave had been found. The company, the regiment, the first name and middle initial, the hospital and ward number all agreed with the recorda in Mr. Hoff man's possesion, but the name waa spelled "Huffman" and this account ed for the failure of other superin tendents to locate the grave. - The grave iB in the National Cem etery at Madison, near Nashville, Tennessee, and Mr, Hoffman plans to have photographs taken of the grave and cemetery and to have the name corrected on the stone that marks his father's resting place.

OREGON MYHTLEWOOD SHOWS EXTREME BEAUTY " Ah interesting exhibit of Oregon Myrtlewood products haa been loaned to Littler's Pharmacy, and ia on exhibit lor a lew daya. myrtle wood ia ooming to mean for Oregon what Redwood has meant for Cali forniaexcept that it far surpasses the beauty of the product of our sis ter atate. : Outside of Palestine the only known groves of myrtle of any con siderable size are those located on the southern coast of Oregon, ' in Coos and Curry counties, It is quite natural, therefore, that considerable state pride is felt in the products of this beautiful tree. Myrtle tends to develop burls, the grain of which is a beautifully mot tled black and light yellow. The wood is of a very fine texture, and extremey hard, so that it takes a high polish of satiny appearance without varnish.' Mr. Tuttle, who haa recently taken a place on the faculty of the College resided in Coquille, where the princi nal Myrtlewood factory is operated by Oerding Brothers. The exhibit at ' Littler's Pharmacy has been loaned by Mr. Tuttle. A recent item in the Oregonian proposed that Myrtlewood be used to advertise Oregon among Eastern ers. And the beauty of the wood certainly justifies such a suggestion. Mrs. Hoffman Honored At McMinnville Wednesday. Mrs, A. G. Hoffman, of Forest Grove, was elected a delegate ox tne stete to the National Conference of the Woman's Home Missionary Society which meets in St. Paul, October 20. "FLEETS OF FOOD FOB BARROWS OF JEWELS' (Continued Mm page 1) can home and affect, every family and avery individual." Suggeeting a remedy for the twea- ent tendency toward, extravagance,! Mr. Hoover says: "It ia as imperative today as It waa during Che war, even mora so, that we should practice thrift is all its forms.

Monav that is wasted la destroy ed, as if cast into a fire, end the evil result, are not comineu to sue inmv idual'a waste and his or her family, but are in fact spread throughout so ciety. This is the crime and damage done by waste." Mr. Hoover admits that It Is diffi cult and "sometime, almost Impossi ble" to define waste. "Much has been said," writes Mr. Hoover, "and writ ten about silk shirts and atuc stow Inge. I will not condemn the use of these articles but if those who wear silk stockings could see the millions of people . in Europe who bye no stocking! at all and Indeed no ahoea, they would take less satisfaction in the sheen and pattern of their hose." The article directed attention to inaummhla individual resDonaiblllty and sets forth that thrift la first a matter of principle and secondly that "there is no chance, of our Individual Mnrt in the rinht direction being nullified by the action of others, and Ida: "About ona-third of our people are responsible for most of the extrav agance and wast in thia country. It ia a heavy responsibility that they bear, If we could convert this one third to simple living, the problem would be solved. "It ia the one-third who an guilty of extravagant eating and drinking in public places. They spend 2u0, 000 every night in New York City alone on restaurant lupperu. The nation spends, at least a million dol lars a day or 1866,000,000 a year in superfluous eating at hotels and res taurants. "Again it is the one-third who are mostly responsible for the waata in volved In the use of jewelry on which so many millions are spent We are now obtaining a great many dia monds, other precious stones and ar ticles of ornament from Europe.

If persisted In, a lot of people will find themselves owning a handful of pre cious stones aa worthless as are the titles of many former monarcha of Europe." . ,. r Further, illustrating his point, Mr, Hoover cites the sale of perfume at $65 a bottle and deplores the wide spread purchase of furs. He says: "The installment system of credit for clothes and furniture la a direct cause of a great deal of extravagance for it lures its victims witb tne uea of small occasional payment, of which the total ia almoat never eom prehended. It Is somewhat as If you had a small cut In your pocket-book an through it the lesser coins were constantly dropping out.
