- I HOOD R1VKU GLACIER, THURSDAY", FEBRUARY 22, 1917 ODELL Miss Grace Chambers will soon be at home in her own tiny bungalow. S. P. Davenport was the builder and the lit tie home will be cozy and convenient. Miss Chambers has owned this orchard tract for several year. She has been engaged in office work in Portland, and now choses '.to reside in Odell where she will receive a cordial welcome. Mrs. Steisr Hansen has received a letter from her former home in Den mark which rives an idea of the cost of livinsr in and near the war zone. Denmark, as Glacier readers know, has remained neutral and the people of that country receive for their product nrices in keeDinsr with scarcity of 8Ut ply and greatly increased demand. The writer of this letter had sold 30 eggs for a sum the equivalent of a little more that $ 2. Flour costs there about $5 for 50 pounds. These prices proba bly do not approach the price of such supplies in the interior of the territory devastated by war, if it is possible to procure them at any price. Chas.
