JOHNS, fi F. ST. JOHNS, N. P., Fh. The child erossinK sweep, a churuetor that seems to have stepped out of tho panes of Dickens, has come into his seasonal occupation in this colonial capital. So Ufr as known St. John's is tho only place in North America where the in stitution survives. The old world touch fclven by the young tatterdema lions and their brooms has much of the picturesque and in n city subject to weather conditions that make for hiiow bound crossings and muddied f lactones the children have made themselves so familiar Mid useful on the streets as to have unofficlul status as a public utility. No white-win(; city laborer of Chi cago or New York does his work more faithfully. Unliko tho municipal em ploye the child crossing tenders ply their sweeps independently and with out waj;e. At the end of the crossing however, the pedestrian almost in variably finds tho little ones holding their broom in one hand and extend ing the other for alms. Payment in pennies is Riven freely, but tho pe destrian has a problem when lie finds several seeking to clear his way and n waiting their payment combatively at the curb. MASONS HOME ASHLAND, Fill. 7. This is social and drive week, ino.-.t of the events occurring in behalf o'' n lief works. either directly or indirectly.

Other social events on Tuesday in clude a card party ut the parish house in the afternoon, and tho annual ball to lie given by the local of the Car men's union, ut the armory, in the evening. Wednesday evening will witness the uppearanen here of that super attrac tion, the New York Chamber Music Socioty, an aggregation of n dozen of the finest Individual artists in the world, which appears ut tho armory, under auspices of the Chautauqua us s&clntion as a premier entertainment In Its winter course. Depending upon circumstances, other entertainments are in prospect under chaulauqua auspices Normalcy doesn't seem to apply to the raising of funds voluntarily, and as there Is no longer any community war chest upon which to make requisition In an emergency, another drivo or two Is in order. Tills refers moro particu larly lo relief measures in behalf of tho starving children of Europe, aa n national effort, anil of the Albertina Kerr Nursery Home, which although located in Portland, is sponsored by the generously inclined throughout the state. A homc-to-home canvass is to be made, and Saturday, Feb. lli. will be tag day as a final roundup financially for the benefit of this deserving char ily. Tho Ashland Ministerial union is making specific appeals for these char ities, addressing them to fraternnl or ganizations throughout the city in ad dition to the general public, and re sponses have iu instances been speedy and gratifying. llillah Temple of Shriners donated $50 to the Europeuu Children's Helief fund, also $50 to the Albertina Kerr Nursery building fund, these donations supplementing $50 for the Ked Cross, and $10 for the pur chase of Christmas seals mado recent ly. It is expected that other orders will follow suit In due measure. Ash land lodge No. '23 has been notified that Its quota towards the Masonic Home building fund is t-,MM, and this Is being paid by installments and in nowise included among other levies which are being made lor thu upkeep of tho institution. LOCAL HIGHWAYS il STRIP WELL-TO-DO ALL READY CASH Very few citizens realize the amount of work which has been doi'M on the loads of southern Oregon add the J amount of money which the slate high way commission has spent here, and very few people know what is being contemplated In road construction. No man is better equipped to give j tins mtorniation than iv. i;. iiuugman, engineer for the state highway com mission, and he will give facts cover ing the points mentioned at the forum of the Medl'ord Chamber of Commerce which will be held next Wednesday noon at the Medl'ord hotel. Until. Col. W. S. Wnpos who will be iu Med fori) on Wednesday for the in spection of tho members of Company D, will be in attendance and a short address will be given hy him. PAH1S Tne peasants of Austria are lapldly stripping the well-to-do resi dents of Vienna of their wealth by de manding payment lor food iu dia monds, jewels or other things of high value, say Hed Cross men, who have, visited that city. The farmers who suffered moro severely than did the city people iu the war now are having their Innings and are becoming pros perous, selling produce to the starving V lennese. Austrian paper money is not always welcome 111 the country anil tho pens nuts demand an exchange of goods through n system of baiter with the city residents. This attitude Is said to be adding to tho growing antagonism between the country worker and the city dweller. Directors of government pawnshops estlmnto that 15 per cent of the Vien nese are living by Belling or pawning their vuluubles, frequently heirlooms. As tho cost of living continues to In crease, It is considered only a mutter of a short thno until many of the fam ilies who wero well-to-do before the war will have nothing moro to offer for food. tlSTRlfCif Instead of meat, try Del Monte Beans with To mato Sauce. Their mellow, nut-like flavor will delight you. If 1 CIGARETTE Mo cigarette has the same delicious flavor as Lucky Strike. Because Lucky Strike Is the toasted cigarette.
