Opportunity Is now offered, through Federal Food Administrator W II Ayer. for Oregon families and menu farturing firms us ng wheat flour, to make a voluntary personal sacrifice for tha ben«nt of Uncle .Ham a boya In th* Army and Naiy Mr Ayer ha» announced that anv family, public sat Ing place, or factory using wheat flour, tuch as bakeries and cracker factories, now has the privilege of directly con tribuUng to the flour blns of th* Army and Navy by turning back to the gov srnmenL al the market price such portion of their wheat flour allowance as they will patriotically refrain from consuming themsehee 8u< h gifts of wb*>at floor, while not going directly to France for the boys overseas, will be t med into the gov eminent oomtnlsaa-y el th» nearest potoL and will release an equal qwaa tlty of vb«'it flour >>n tlx- Atlantic s*a board fur immediate shipment "over th*re. ' Ubuer this uovel plan wh-n a patriotic Oregon family goes on a wheatleas diet for a VMl or a month, or longer period, the wheat flour they save and turn back to th* government actually represents an equivalent of wheal flour three thou ■and miles awsy. which Immediately starts to move forward to the fighting forces This arrangement has been made in order to save trans portaUou acmes the continent. "I am hoping for a splendid wheal aaving record In Oregon" said Mr Ayer the other day. "For I believe when Oregon families and public *•! Ing plarea In lb* state know that th» flour they save will go direct to th«* boya of the Army and Navy they will not h*altate to respond In the usual patriotic Oregon say. I had a tele gram trom Mr Hoover today In which he asked me for an estimate on what I thought Oregon could be relied upon to save under the new plan I wished to be conservative, and I replied that my estimate wnuld be 30 to H per cent of th* normal wheat flour con aumption. Thia Is a much lowsr ea tlmate than other stales had mane, and I realise that It will probably be unsatisfactory at Washington I am hoping that the people of the atat* will exceed thia estimate by a gener ous margin The county admlntatrs tors ha«e in hand the full details of th» plan for aaving wheat In thia way for the ne*da of our fighting men. and any one wishing to personally contrlb ute wheat flour should get In touch at once »Uh the Food Administrator of ths county In which he or she Uvea." The wheat saving plan announced by Mr Ayar la a nattotsal oua. and it, Is now operative In all the states The states of Washington. Idaho and Oregon are now cooperating In an effort to make a big wheat saving rec ord tor the Northwest. Federal Food Administrators H F lllcknell of Idaho and Charles llebt.erd of Washington Join with Federal Food Administrator W II Ayer for Oregon In the follow Ing announcement, which gives In d* tall the plan of handling life returned wheat "Mr Hoover has wired all Federal Food Administrators that the m »• stocks of flour held by public eating placea, bakers, dealers and consumers may ba voluntarily surrendered lor the use of the Army and Navy and the Allies This action has been prompted by the many voluntary offerings from different parts of the country "The practical method of handling such returned flour will be through the local merchant, who la hereby r<s quested to rwelve all such Hour and pay the holding consumer the actual cost of same, and then redistribute It without any additional charge to the ultimate consumer Where merchants accumulate more than their thirty days' supply and all hotels, bakers, etc., that have an escena amount that cannot be disposed of locally, they should Immediately communicate with Mr M II Houser.

The dainty and winsome belress of a Kentucky planter, recently graduate! from a fashionable northern seminary, was devoting the morning of th* Oral dug of her return to the old homestead renewing acquaintance with her fa ther's darky retainers "down among the quarters." As she entered one of the cabins she saw old Aunt Martha, l>on> In slavery during the life of the young lady's grandfather, bending over a broad log Ore. carefully burning, piece by piece, a bunch of chicken feathers. “A'tnt Martha.“ Inquired the young lady, after watching the work of the ex-slave a few moments In silence, "why do you burn those feathers so carefully and systematically? 1« It be cause of some religious Idea or a su perstition F* "No Mlsstua Lucy.” came the an- swer from the delltmrato old woman, as she watched the Inst telltale feath- er crumple Into nothing.
