Of course it was a ".Mrs." but never theless many, many thanks.

Well it has at last reached its des tination, Corporal Arnold M. Lind holin, is my name. I am Battery clerk, and therefore had my pick. I picked and sure drew lucky. Not going beyond imagination it is the finest piece of knitted goods I have seen yet, and I have seen a great deal since I have been In the army.

As this is the first letter I have I written you, I will not endeavor u. go to far into details, but I will say this; we are Tacoma boys, enlisted in the National Guard in April, all high school students. I, myself, am graduated. We are not drafts, we were called into the service July 25, 1917, and have been up to fort all the while. We expect soon to go to France. Please write me, as I will be glad to hear from you at any time .and also know that the one who knitted this sweater I am wearing actually knows where it has gone to, write real soon. Yours truly, ARNOLD XINHOLM. E When it is Time to Eat t JUST REMEMBER The 0. K. Restaurant CAN PREPARE THE MEAL THE WAY YOU WANT IT.

Rader used a 32-calibre au tomatic revolver, sending one bullet through McCue's head and three thru the stomach. At nine o'clock Thurs day morning the Eagle received a phone that McCue was still alive but that his chances for recovery were very slight. Details are lacking, but it seems that the shooting was a result of a quarrel. After the shooting Rader went to the Caverhill place and told them what he had done and that they had better phone for Sheriff Hmvnll as he did not care to go with a deputy. bnerirr Howell left for Long Creek horseback, Wednesday night and Thursday morning Rader came to Long Creek. Just how the shooting occurred Is not known, but it seems that Rader, accompaniel by Frank Hale went to the McCue cabin. They entered the cabin, Hale thinking that a row was brewing went outside. He said he heard scuffling and re-entered the ca bin. He told McCue that he would take Rader out, when the shooting took place. McCue was a man about 45 years old. He has a wife and four child ren, who are now at the Kemp Hard istry place in the Trout creek country where McCue had Ffed Nickles' place rented. About three weeks ago Mc Cue took his horses which he had in Silvies over to the Johnson place which he had leased -from Rader. H seems that Rader and McCue had had more or less misunderstanding over the terms of the lease and the mat ter had been the subjet of prior con troversy, although McCue was a man of a peaceful reputation. Blue Mountain Eagle. Later reports Indicate that Mr. McCue died from wounds inflicted. ' The happiest man in Portland a few days ago was Mack M. Miller, who Is going to France. Miller was not 21 on war registra tion day, but because he thought he would get into the war more quickly that way he registered for the selec tive draft up . in Morrow County, where he was driving an automobile stage. He told the exemption board he was 21 and a class 1-A man. When after six months' waiting he hadn't been called and found he was barred from volunteering he told the exemption board the truth about his age. Meantime he had reached 21, and the board would not excuse him. He haunted the offices, pleading for a chance to fight. If the army was barred to him, he wanted to go into the navy. Last week the board gave him a note to the navy recruiting office in Portland saying that If he enlisted In five days It would waive claims to him. At the navy recruiting office he found a waiting list of more than a 100 men ahead of him. He couldn't enlist in five days. He was doubtfui if the navy could take him In less than five weeks. Then Miller read about the 37th Engineers, electrical and mechanical, which Is being recruited at 523 Beck building for service in France. He laid his troubles before Lieutenant Victor H. Braunig, in charge of re cruiting for the 37th In Portland. Because Miller Is an expert In gas engines, the 37th has a place for him. Lieutenant Braunig immediately tel egraphed the exemption board - in Morrow and secured the boy's release. He will be enlisted at once and will go to Fort Meyer, Va for training. Within a few weeks he will be "over there." Soldier's News Letter. FINE Old Body Yellow Valley Fir Wood in 4-foot or 16-inch lengths at $9.50 and $10.75 re spectively. F. O. B. in yards at Heppner.
