J.H- MORE MEN CALLED Only eighteen out of Baker county's quota of 38 were secur ed from the first army draft and a call woo made for GO more regis trnnts, among them being the following from Eagle Valloy: Eli J. Stnnciu , George II. Guyer Daniel V. Gover Ira Jacobs Ira W. Bradford Clarence Butterficld was callqd from Sparta and Virgil Saunders from Baker. The latter passed the examination sjnd was ac cepted. ' Alfred Barber's cluims for ex emption wero refused, as were I hose of several others. Under the rules a claim for ex emption on account of dependent wife or other rclatjvcs must rest entirely upon whether the de pendents will become a burden upon the community should the party asking exemption on their account be called to war. If there is any doubt on that point the decision will be against the claim ant und ho will have to go. James M. Thompson was ex amined and accepted last week. Hogs have reached 517.G0 at Kansas City. We have received an interest ing letter from Lee Chamberlain U'dfeich we will publish next week. For Sale One Edison phono graph, diamond point, and 100 records. Inquire at News office. Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Barber re turned Monday from Banks, Ore., where they had been visiting. Mr. Barbcir brought with him namples of the hazel-nuts grown in that section which can be seen at the News oflice. Many sections of the state claim the title "God's Country," hut we know of no place now which can better claim that title than Eagle alloy. Thousands of tons of hay in the stack and fields growing luxuriantly, insuring future cut ting and good pasture; grain be ing harvested; vegetables of all kinds in abundance; orchards laden with fruit, and above all prospects of plenty of water to insure good crops of everything. Truly it seems as if Eagle Valley is moro blessed than many other sections. Must Be Sold! By Monday evening, August 20th I am going back to Iowa and oder all my household goods at private sale.

McMickle Owner U'-1 Fire caused by a defective flue broke out in the kitchen of the Capital Hotel in Sumpter Monday afternoon and by night the entire business section and many resi dences were in ashes. The fire department was called from Bak er, and went up on a special train bu,t owing to tho water supply failing could render no assistance. Numbers were left homeless and without food, but supplies wero sent in on auto trucks and all were fed and made comfort able. The loss is estimated at around $500,000. Sumpter's fate should impress upon our town council the need for immediate action for a water system for Richland. Should a fire break out now our town would be wiped oft" the map, Useful Maps Free Several interesting publications for free distribution to the public have just been issued by the Union Pacific System, among them are the following: A map of tho United States showing cantonment and aereo camps, presides, forts and other military data. , An indexed pocket map of Ore gon, Washington and Idaho in colors and giving the latest map data of those states.

Lachner, Eight Years Fostnjaster at Baker, Ed Rand, Eight Years Sheriff of Baker County Phone 111 BAKER, OREGON BOY THIEVES CAUGHT We recently mentioned that a lot of petty thieving was being done in Richland and vicinity and last week four young boys were caught in the act, but on account of their age were allowed to go upon their promise of future good behavior. Among other places entered were Oliver Corson's work shop, Chas. Barber's and Allen Bin heimer's residences, and numer- ousuarns and chicken coopS." A good deal of the plunder was re covered, though quite a lot had been disposed of. Two of the boys were sent to relatives out of town and the gang broken up. While it is hard tp say whether or not they should have been sent to the re form school this time, they will sure land there if caught in any more crooked work. The Easiest Question "Papa," asked little Five-year old, "how do you open a bank ac count? The banks are always asking you to open an account" Son, that's the easiest question to answer that you have asked in a long time. By opening an ac count they mean leaving some money with them. You just walk up to the window and tell the man you want to leave so much money. There is little said about the "opening.' He takes your money and gives you a receipt, ana a check book and asks no questions. You have then opened a bank ac count Now to open an account at the store well, that's differ entthey always ask somelques tions. ad) Eagle Valley State Bank Cattle for Sale 14 bead Short horn Durham heifers and 10 calves for caih or bankable note.
