CLUBS IN OREGON Speculation as to who would be Hood River county's new county judge form ed the main topic here Satordsy in political circles. County Judge Stan ton, named at a recall election in 1912 to auceeed Judge Geo, R. Castner, an nounced that morning that his letter of resignation would go forward to Gov ernor Withy combe the first of this week. Judge Stanton, whose term of office has been more or less character ized by bickeringa between factions created during the bitter reeall fight, left Monday for Stromsberg, Nebr., bis former borne, to enter business. Judge Stanton has recently been drawn into a rather unenviable lime light because of his presidency of the Associated Fruit Growers, a corpora tion declared insolvent early in tbe fall by Corporation Commissioner Schulder roan. A auit brought by District At torney Derby against Judge Stanton in behalf of minority stockholders of the defunct corporation is now pending in circuit court. A judgment against Judge Stanton for a sum of approxi mately $40,000 is asked in the com plaint filed by the district attorney. Judge Stanton, when asked if be would return here to right the case, which will probably come on for a hearing at a next year's term, replied that be would see that the suit would be taken care ot. An aspirant to succeed Judge Stan ton is L. N. Blowers, first mayor of Sumpter and formerly mayor of this city. Mr. Blowers has been endorsed by the Republican central committee ot the county and by numerous business men of tbe city, among them bis two competitors in the hardware business. City officials and prominent grange members have endorsed bim. FRUIT MOVES OUT DESPITE EMBARGO While local fruit sales officials an nounced last week that the freight embargo placed by the Union Pacific system waa still tight, apples from here were being rolled east over the Milwaukee and Northern Pacific linos. The embargo placed by the Northern Pacific was lifted Thursday. "We have three outlets for our apples," say a Wilmer Sieg, sales man ager of the Apple Growers Association, "namely, through Spokane over the Canadian Pacific, through Wallula over the Northern Pacific, and through Marengo over the Milwaukee line." The Union Pacific embargo, acccord iing to announcements, will continue until January 8. ARTILLERY OFFICERS ATTEND CONVENTION The following officers of Company 12, C. A. C, O. N. G.. were in Portland the first of the week to attend the con vention of officers of the Oregon Na tional Guard: Capt. Geo. R. Wilbur and Lieutenants Edward W. Van Horn and Ed E. Brosius. Universal training, elimination of the "unwritten law" of labor unions against tbe National Guard, abolition of tbe attendance requirement and the pay to all men who attend drills were strongly advocated at the annual convention.

In Paris veterinarians have per formed operations on war mutes that render tbem brayless. The following ancient but very effective method waa used to prevent donkeys from braying: A heavy rock was tied to the donkey's tail. When a donkey brays be finds it necessary to lift bis caudal appendange. The rock prevents, and the brsy is killed at its inception. Don't forget to feed the birds during these days of snow and exceeding cold. The hundreds of Alaskan robins that wintered here last year are missing this season.

War Takes Mrs. Gehrig's Relatives Mrs. Edmund Gehrig, wife of an orcbardiat of the Summit distriet.Tues day received a letter from ber old home, Kernter, Austria, that told of the death of ber father, Joseph Wirns berger, whose death was caused from hardships attendant on the great war.

Tbe Oregon Federation of Women's clubs, orgsnited in 19, has enjoyed a continued and prosperous growth in membership and usefulness until at the 16th annual convention, held in Sea side October 9-12, 163 el'ibs were re ported as holding membership, compris ing nearly 10,000 of the most progress ive and intelligent women of the state. The club movement in Oregon has not confined itself to the cities alone, although Portland bas 30 federated clubs, and each of the other larger cities of the state are well represented, Eugene having five. There are few of the smaller cities and towns that do not boast ot a club that bas done much for its people along educational and civic linea. Many clubs in the rural dis tricts havo been organized for civic betterment and social uplift, and do much to keep the women on the iarm in touch with the great women move ment of the day. Showing its true progressive spirit, Oregon was represented by 17 dele gates at the biennial meeting of the Genreal Federation of Women's clubs, held in New York last May. The west was recognized as an important factor in this great gathering of women when to California tell tbe honor oi naming Mrs. Josiah Evans Cowles, of Los An geles, as president, snd Oregon rejoiced that ita past president, Mrs. Sarah A. Evans, of Portland, might be named as a director. Much credit is due the Oregon club women for the interest they have taken in every line that tends to better con ditions of the state and the home. In art, literature and music they are striving to raise the standards and create a demand for the best. There ar few libraries in the state that have not been obtained through their efforts. To tbem belongs the credit for estab lishing tbe clean-up day. That has long since become sn annual event in every community. Their efforts along the lines of conservation have not been without results, and they have awak ened a keener appreciation of our nat ural resources. They are ever energet ic good roads boosters, and this last year appointed a special committee to offer their assistance in this movement. Last May they added their efforts to those of the sister states of Washing ton, Idaho, Montana and Utab in ob serving "Western Clubwomen's Con sumers' Week," and urged every mem ber to buy western and Oregon made goods, using the slogan, "Buy at Home and get the habit." Since having the privilege of the ballot Oregon clubwomen have taken a serious, dignified interest in all legis lative affairs, and are especially inter ested in bettering conditions in the state institutions, particularly those that deal with the women and children. Through the Public Health Commission the Oregon Federation is undertaking a movement for the treatment and care of the crippled children of the state by raising a fund to establish beds in hos pitals and later hoping to establish a children's hospital. Perhaps the most important work undertaken by the clubwomen of the state, surely the one that is bringing the best returns, is that of its scholar ship loan fund, established nine years ago. The fund is loaned to young women of the state to assist in their education and is to be paid back with out interest when they become self supporting. Ths fund is raised by the clubs' setting aside the last Wednesday in January, which is known as "red letter day." The last annual report showed that 111 young women had re ceived loans from this fund to the amount of 112,345. If tbe clubwomen of this state did nothing else, this investment alone would be worthy their efforts. Moose Meeting There will be a meeting of tbe Moose lodge Saturday evenine.
