(The luw forbids It. and even if the law did not, for good business reason It should not he done). Second That the bonds he offered In small amounts and small denomi nations, and the people of Lane coun ty urged to buy them, because they are a good Investment and will keep the money and Interest at home. Third We recommend that no ex tensive construction work be under taken under any conditions that will take needed labor from the farms, mills, camps or other Industries, and until conditions settle to a normal and standard level, that you proceed carefully with the road bond pro grain. Fourth We recommend that all of the road building equipment and or ganization be worked steadily every day the weather will permit, and when the money available from our regular taxes la exhausteJ, that the credit of the county be used by of fering for sale enough, but no more, (Continued on l'age lOlcht) LEUION VCCKLY OFFERS REWARD FOR DRAFT DODGER Tho American Legion Weekly Imn pro. tod r reward of $S00 for the cap in. e of Cleveland IWkdoll, the mil ll ualre draft dodger and deserter, who has recently Heaped from the federal authorities at Willadelphln, Tlila reward la In addition to. $nr00 ' berrle an.1 loganberries la being at-'f n, University of Oregon will de alieady offered hy olliera. ! linked by ainall" light green worm Oliver the address of the evening.

Under the cherry trees'. Fanned by the northwest breeze,' Bringing the scent of new-mown hay I'pon a bright warm summer day. Up in a cherry tree. Among the rustling leaves. Through which the bright, clear aun- ... . light gleams i daDeingr beams We do not mind the heat. Or the robin's protesting cheep, For right at hand The ripe, red bunches hang. Of luscious fruit, ready to eat. And soon our bucket to fill. ; And lower away to the' ground, And empty into the box With a clinking, bumping sound. And lid and fill again and again Without a spill. Till we have picked many a pound. Away In the topmost boughs. Gazing up in the blue of the sky. Where the Lord of the earth) H:is ljis. dwelling place on hign. And into the sunlit fields below Where the mellow gardens lie. And the Royal cherry treea Stand row on row. Vp In a Itoyal Ann. Ticking cherries to can. Away are the helds so .wide. Of the Scented meadow land, Where after th. el'eking moweM stride. The hay shocks thickly stand. !' 1 good. Hlive to be. Way up in a cherry ti-ee. ricking cherries to can I'pon a summer day.
