COMMUNICATION,
To tho editor: I ought to lie en
titled to Bpnco In your paper to cor
rect tlio misleading nnd false state
ments as to my attltmlo toward the
Red Cross. I never at any time or at
any place made a statement that any
sensible person could construo an de
rogatory to this grout society. It cm
liotllcs tlio highest expression ot civil
ization and humanity. Klnce the
Christian nations am trying to exter
minate each other, the work of the
Red Cross Is the rainbow of promise
that the teachings of Christ shall sur
vive even the delugo of blood.
' The person who reported to the pa
pers my recent remarks before- the
school board perverted them appar
ently with the Intention of doing me
tin Injury. I am porfectly willing that
tho virtues and wisdom of Dr. Porter
and Dr. lilddoll, the new mcnibors of
tho boardt bo advertised so long as
the other members of tho board, -Including
myself, are not misrepresent
ed or stigmatized. I Toted and work
ed for tho election of both these
gcntloriien, and there Is no reason
known to mo why they should soek
to put me In a false light before the
public.
It is quite trtio that I opposed loan
ing the sowing machines owned 1y
tho school districts. Heforo I waH
oloctcd a member, tho "board loaned
theso machines to certain ladles t
mako garments, etc., for tho French
soldiers and people, and tho school
district was obliged to pay po.Iin to
put tho machines in repair after they
wcro through with them.
Against tho Imiv
Tlio law does not permit tho board
to loan or hypothecate any property
belonging to tho district, and last
your tho members of tho board unan
imously resolved not to ngaln loan
anything belonging to tho school dis
trict to anybody. This was the reason
why tho old hoard, including Mr. Pal
mer, denied tho request of the Indies
of tho local Hod Cross for the use of
tho machines.
It was, therefore, a surprlso when
Mr. Painter, In rovcrso of his recent
former action, and the two now mem
bers, who ton minutes boforo had
taken tho oath to support and ninln
taln tho law, thus proceeded to disre
gard It.
I also confess to hovlng argued
that tho garments, bandages and oth
er articles used by tho Itetl Cross are
mado In largo factories on tho Allan
tic coast In proximity to the mills that
supply tho raw material; that It seem
ed poor economy to pay transport".
Hon charges for carrying such mater
lal across tlio continent, huylng it at
renin price here, making it up by
hand and again paying transportation
chargeB back to New York prepara
tory for shipment to Kiironn. It np
pears to me that these ladies might to
belter advantage employ Ihemsclv
lit other vocations and contribute their
earnings to the national organization
which could make every dollar worth
a hundred cents.
Conti-Umtoil to ltol Cross
Kven ill this -period of hysteria one
should ho allowed to make a sensible
observation without being sMgiuatiiied
as unpaliiotle. mid "opposed to the
Red Cross."
I Inivo nindo contributions both to
tho Hod Cross and the Y. M. C. A
for war and betterment of the sol
titers. I venturo my contributions
amount to as much as those of either
Dr. Porter or Dr. ltldilell. and upon

vegetables. Articles and pamphlets telling how to can
and preserve with and without sugar and how to dry or
evaporate products of the garden and on-hard can be had
on application to the department of agriculture.
Pointing out that the ordinary harvest yield will be
greatly increased this year by tho "back yard gardening"
campaigns, Mr. Houston declared that not to conserve this
valuable food surplusage would be "a sinful waste."
"As the transporation pressure, of the railroads will
become heavier because of large shipments of food for
military purposes-, it is the duty ot all to endeavor to re
lieve this condition by utilizing to the greatest extent all
locally produced foodstuffs," says the secretary.
"All any home should expect of others is the i'oods which
cannot be produced effectively by its own members," he
adds. -
If you preserve at home, put. up more fruit than ever
before, (let jars and glasses, bottles and crocks ready to
save the fruit crop. 1'ut away dried vegetables. The Am
erican housewife who practices thrift places herself in the
ranks of t hose who serve their country.
You can show your thrift in no 'more convincing way
than by combating the national tendency to squander this
country's wonderful fruit crop. "Whether you buy pre

ELKS ESCAPE
Three large Iks from the Klamath
county herd of 14 elks escaped Sun
day from the enclosure In which the
herd was confined and it Is thought
that they may cross over tho moun
tains and appear in the vicinity of the
headwaters of some of the creeks
emptying Into tho Rogue river on this
si do.
Ralph Ewing, Inspector of fish
screens, who has JuBt returned to
Medford, announces that the Klam
ath Falls lodge of Elks and the
Sportsmen's association of that coun
ty request that residents of this coun
ty keep a lookout for the escaped elks
and report to Commissioner Stone of
Klamath Falls, member of the fish
and game commission, or to the
Sportsmen'B association any news
that they may hear of the wherea
bouts of the elks. -
No effort will be made to recapture
the elks but Information is sought
only as to their whereabouts and
movements and how they are acting.
A crowd of people were present In
the enclosure last Sunday.vlewing the
herd, and when an effort was made to
drive three of the elks into a corner
so that a picture might be made of
them, the frightened animals leaped
over the fence and quickly disappear
ed in the distance.

So far Jackson county seems des
tined to have an enviable rocord rela
tive to military registration. Sheriff
Ralph Jennings and his deputies after
having investigated many reported
cases of slackers who failed to regis
ter on that day, have uncovered but
ono out and out slackor.
This forenoon thero wcro but five
more cases to investigate. The one
known caso so fur of where but one
man of this county's mnny hundred
young men or the prescribed military
ago failed to register, was In Ashland.
The young man disappeared the fol
lowing day and his present where
nbouts aro unknown. Sheriff Jen
nings, however, has hopes of captur
ing him In the near future.
Of the many reported cases of
slackers Investigated, all but this one
proved to be groundless, the alleged
offenders being either too young or
too old. The Investigation carried the
sheriff and his deputies into every
part of the county. The tips for in
vestigation came to tho sheriff per
sonally or to other county officials
and tho mayors of the various cities
and villages of the county.
