For 1919.
The publishers of The Youth's
Companion will, as always at this
season, present to every subscriber
whose subscription is paid for 1919,
a calendar for the new year. It is
a gem of calendar-making. The
decorative mounting is rich, but the
main purpose has been to produce a
e:irtar that is useful, and that
purpose has been achieved.

yets too old to learn. Mr. Pearson
will remain at Heppner for some
hue. assisting Mr. Swanson in the

HOW ESiCI-' SCLDIL DIED
Portland, The signing of the
armistice in no way alters the rules
and regulations of the fuel adminis
tration now in force, but by Act of
Congress, the fuel administration'
continues until the promulgation of
the treaty of peace and its powers
extend. to the production, distribu
tion and conservation of "fuel. In
cluding fuel oil and natural gas,"
according to U. S. Fuel Administra-,
tor 11. A. Garfield. Cancellations!
ind changes in regulations .will bej
'.uade from time to time as the nec-;
essity arises.
B'uel conservation must continue, j
although war lias ended, accordiug
to Fred J. Holmes, Oregon Fuel j
Administrator. The state has nev;er
be:m called upon to observe many of j
the stringent fuel regulations en-i
forced In Eastern states, on account
of being peculiarly well situated
kh regard to fuel ' sources. But
waste Is Inexcusable, and by con
servation methods of heating, not
only may fuel be saved for future
emergency, but money saved as well.
The National fuel administration
order of May 13, restricting the sale
for road purposes of asphalt, road
binders, road oil, tar binders ami
dressings has been cancelled, and
shipments of these materials may
now be made without special permit
or filing application with the state
highway department.
While one cord of hard wood
produces but 60 pounds of ashes,
one ton of coal produces from 200
to 300 pounds of ashes.
"THE LATEST WHEEZE"
"When your head is blazing, burning
And your brain within is turning
Into buttermilk from churning
It's tha Flu. .
When your joints , are creaking
cracking,
As if all the fiends were racking,
Ail the devils were attacking,
It's 'the Flu.
Chorus:
It's the Flu, Flu, Flu!
Which has you, you, you; "
It has caught you and It's got you,
And It sticks like glue.
It's the very latest fashion; i
It's the doctor's pet and passion,
vSo sneeze a bit,
And wheeze a bit -Ka-chew!

When your stomach grows uneasy,
Quaking, querulous and queasy,
All dyspeptic and diseasy, ,
It's the Flu.
Wben you have appendicitis,
Par-en-chy-ma-tous, ne-phrl-tis,
Laryngitis, or gastritis,
It's the Flu.
Chorus: (All sing)
When you have a corn, a pimple,
Complicated lll, or simple,
Broken bone, or fading dimple, .
It's the Flu.
When no matter what assails you,
If no doctor knows what ails you,
Then the answer never fails you,
It's the Flu.
Chorus: (Once more altogether)
. I ts the Flu, Flu, Flu!
Which has you, you, you;
It has caught you and it's got you.
And it sticks like glue.
It's the very latest fashion;
It's the doctor's pet and passion,
So sneeze a hit,
And wheeze a bit
Ka-chew! chew! chew!

AFTER THE WAR 180,000,000
people in hungry lands will look to
America for food which no other
people can give them.
In their misery and famine, Bel

Rumania and Armenia will cry to us.
From us food must come. We
must save that we may give. It is
America's mission, our opportunity to

beyond the bridgehead, in among the
trees, the enemy had erected plat
forms in tiers, bearing machine guns.
As John stood, his helmet awry, his
mouth open In shouts of encourage

group of guns broke loose. That was
why the bridge hnd been left.
The Eskimo swayed, bent a little,

LANDMARK IN CITY CF PENN
Many Philadelphia Citizens Would
' Deeply Regret the Passing of
Famous Old Alehouse.
-
Some rhiladelphiuns of sentimental
and convivial turn are disposed to re
gard the possible advent of prohibi
tion with gloomy mien, If for no other
reason than because It would mean
the passing of the Old Ale House, on
Drury street near Thirteenth.
It is not age that gives flavor to the
Old Ale House. The legend on the
rusty signboard which states that it
was established by Mary. McGlllnn in
1870 does not count for much in
city where many taverns can trace a
direct lineage from the days of Penn.
It is rather the garment of tradition
with which the old taproom has cov
ered Itself. .
It was there that this and that
heavyweight signed articles for an im
mortal bout It was there that poli
ticians hatched a celebrated deal
about which newspaper editorials are
still being written and public speeches
still being made, it was there that
many a young genius found the inspi
ration which Changed hiin from a bo
ht'tiiian buck to a successful author.
Over it all "Mother" McGillun pre
ciriod with a discipline at once gentle
mid stern. The brawls were rare.
The Oid Ale House is no less a land-jn::i-ic
than a sight. The visitor is usu
ally taken there in the early after
noon, and while he sips the ale from
his mug the attentive guide recounts
the history, adding a line or two from
personal reminiscences. The Ale House
seems to lit nil moods und to attract a
variety of minds. It is furnished In

Wartime Nerves.
As the war progresses to its finish,
which will come some glad day, per
haps even nearer than Is now expect
ed, the strain upon those who await
its outcome with the most intense anx
iety daily becomes more difiicult to
stand. The tense situation encour
ages the development of a state of
mind Which sls harassing, and one
which, If not checked, must ultimately
result in a more or less serious col
lapse ufter such long-continued pres

pulses toward over-excitement con
cerning the wur Is essential as well
to the Individual as to the national
well-being. Americans must keep their
heads cool and their bodies strong in
order to do their full duty In this
great emergency. They must ift give
way to feelings of despondency when
temporary discouragements to the ad
vance of the cause occur, nor shouln
they become too sanguine of immedi
ate success when the news comes of a
divided advantage. The untroubled
nml serene mind is to be sedulously
cultivated in these stirring times.

On This Thanksgiving Day
Let Us Be Thankful
For the glorious achievements of our armies in
France, and for the safety of "the boys''
at the front;
That those who have bravely given their lives
or suffered injuries, have made their sacri
fice in a Just Cause and for a Great Ideal;
That we have at home earnest, loyal citizens
determined to support by every means
within their power those who are on the
firing line.
Thankful, too, for our faith that these labors
and sacrifices will not have boen in vain,
and that right will prevail.
