A position in the League of Na­
tions is probably a good thing to
keep America in peace. But uni­
versal m ilitary training would be
better one.
Statements of oil companies
showing combined sales of motor
vehicle fuel in Oregon up to and
including May 31, show a total
tax paid of $84,602 upon this one
item since the new law went into
effect.
The first air flight ever made
m adeover the Cascade and Blue
Mountain ranges were made dur­
ing the past week with an army
scout machine that had been sent
from Portland tQ Seattle after the
Rose Festival for that purpose. A
maximum altitude of 9000 feet was
maintained during the flight.
A differential of 4)4 cents a
bushel for sacked wheat over the
bulk basis has been fixed for the
coming wheat crop. This premi
um, grain men believe, will be as
satisfactory as the 9-cent differen
ential that applied to the 191f
crop, as grain bags are lower in
price than last year. The bags
are now costing the growers 14 to
15 cents, whereas last year they
paid 25 to 30 cents.

of horhe to the Any^rican dough­
boys It is this service that has
ocused the public eye upon the
organization and which has caused
nquiry into the past efforts of this
body of Christian men and wom­
en. This inquiry* has established
the fact that for many years past
the Salvation Army has operated
in the front line trenches of vice
and poverty, bringing comforts to
those who had been* shunned by
the remainder of society. Its mot­
to “ A man may be down but he’s
never out” has won for the Sal­
vation Arm y the approbation of
the general public and every indi­
cation points to a large oversub­
scription in the drive.

Leaving Portland Monday.June
30. an airplane will fly across »he
state from west to east, stopping at
Wasco baseball park at 2 p. m. on
that date and making a stop of not
less than 30 minutes.
The airship is a Curtis type bi­
plane and will be piloted by Lieut.
W m . A. Pearson of the United
States army who will be accom­
panied by Fred Lockley, associate
state director of the war savings
stamp organization,who will make
the trans-state flight for the pur­
pose of arousing interest in this
method of government financing
of obligations incurred because of
the’war.
The Booster Club of Wasco is
responsible for having Sherman
county again placed on the relief
map of the state by being recog­
nized with a stop tor the Curtis
biplane.
It takes considerable
work to prepare a landing place
for one of these big machines and
their effort in doing so should be
rewarded by the attendance of a
large crowd, particularly as the
airship is entirely different from
the monoplane exhibited at the
Sherman county fair two or three

chautauqua at DeMoss to be held
during the week of June 30 to
July 5, inclusive, are now on sale
at stores and banks in Sherman
county.
* Both stores sell Chautauqua sea­
son tickets at Kent and at Grass
Valley they are on sale at the
drug store. In Moro and Wasco
tickets are on sale at banks and
business houses.
Adult season tickets are- priced
at $2.50, student tickets at $1.50
and children’s tickets at $1; war
tax 10% exjra. Single admission
tickets for the entire series will
cost an adult $6.30. Another way
to figure the saving in buying sea­
son tickets is that the admission to
three major entertainments will
cost more than the price of a sea­
son ticket bought before the open­
ing hour.

The biplane will make other
stops in the state at Hood River,
The Dalles, Ione. Bend LaGrande
and Baker.

Tobacco User to Get His
Next is the war on tobacco. An
organization has been legally per­
fected in Pittsburg. Penn., by a
number of clergymen and prom­
inent citizens under the title of
the “ N o Tobacco Corporation.1
The character and object of the
corporation is declared to be ” to
educate the public, especially chil-
dred before they have formed the
tobacco habit to a knowledge of
the evils of the use of tobacco and
to secure by law the prohibition
of the culture, sale and use of to­
bacco.”
