REI) & WHITE STORE ONE DELIVERY DAILY------- — — MC KENZIE TELLS OF LONG TRIP (Continued from page I) many of the sights of "Beautiful Ohio”. There are Wonderful scenes and places in the hills of Ohio, which have been taken over as parks by the U. S. government and cleared and beauti fied by the CCC boys. We also visit- ed Portsmouth, Ohio, which was vis- ited by the high waters of the Ohio river a few years ago. The water marks showed that many one-story houses had been covered and other houses where the water had been up around the second story. The water at that time was 72 feet high, and the city now has a dike built around part of the town high enough to keep 10:30 A. M. slow to us when we had been used to seing cars in Oregon going 60 to 90 miles per hour. Our first auto trip from Richmond I took us to Williamsburg, Yorktown, Newport News. Old Point Comfort, | Langley Field, Virginia Beach, on the I Atlantic Ocean, Norfolk, Portsmouth, Suffolk, and Petersburg, back to i Richmond. Every highway and by- way in the state of Virginia has I many markers or monuments showing I the site at which important battles of I both the Revolutionary and Civil wars were fought. Of all the cities or towns of Vir- I giniä. Williamsburg is perhaps the I most interesting and historic. It was ! started in 1607 by a company of Eng- I lish traders. It was for years the capitol and metropolis of the Virginia colony. You step directly into anoth- er age as you enter this old city which John D. Rockerfeller Jr., at a cost of i many millions of dollars, has had many of the old historic buildings re- :stored to their colonial condition on the original sites, some on the origi nal foundations. Among these are the old court house, the capitol build ing. the Raleigh Tavern, the Ludwell- Paradise House, and the Governor’s Palace. As it is supposed to look as it did in colonial times the capitol flies the British flag. The Public Gaol near the old court house has been rebuilt even to the stocks and pillory. While we were there a group of soldiers were also there and they had locked one of their number in a cell of the jail, and others were locked in the pillory and stocks. They were thoroughly enjoy ing themselves. At each of these places visitors were greeted by hos tesses in colonial costumes. There were also some open carriages drawn by two horses and having a colored driver. At the Raleigh Tavern, George Washington often came to dance and dine, but as tradition has it he would never stay all night as he said it was too noisy. Much of the furniture, painting, etc., in these reconstructed buildings are the originals.

We must work fast and let’s put Oregon over the top in this war effort as she is over the top in all other drives so far! out a 75 foot raise of the river. Near Chillicothe. Ohio, we visited Mound City, which is series of earth mounds built, it is supposed, by a prehistoric race Indians, and used by them for burying their dead. When one of these mounds are open ed they are found to contain human skeletons, and many Indian relics, such as arrowheads, clay pipes, etc. Ohio is a beautiful state. We then, after two weeks, proceed ed on our way to Richmond, Va., over the C. & O. R. R At Richmond we also had the use of Gerald's auto, but gas rationing being in effect in Vir ginia, we had to use it like whiskey HERMISTON TEAM very judiciously.

Pierce • . in CONGRESS He is the only man west of the Missouri River on the Agriculture Committee—he is in a position there to do a lot of good for the people of Eastern Oregon as he has in the past. No NEW man can acquire that seniority without many years of service. His record is: RIGHT ON THE WAR. RIGHT ON RUBBER. RIGHT ON FARM CREDIT. RIGHT ON LABOR. Congressman O'Connor of Montana Says: “I take this occasion to compliment the gentleman, (Pierce) on the matchless service he rendered the American Farmer as a member of this house. I do not know any member of the house who has been more faithful to the interests of the poor man and the farmer, re gardless of what he has been producing, than the distinguished gen tleman from Oregon. We in Montana, as well as the people in the gentleman's state are to be congratulated that we have the benefit of his splendid service.” The Pierce Bill H.R. 6315 Resulted in a Saving of $116,585.00 in This County Alone.
