I am chagrined that such reports have gained circula tion thus hurting our work of seeking funds and doing an injustice the men engaged in the cause. The re ports are without foundation, and this frank . statement is made to Bet the public mind at ease. Local men work ing for the Red Cobs have found it a convenient method of carrying out their plans with dispatch by assembling at the local hotels at the evening meal time. tEach individual pays forj his meal. ', ;.;Ti-" wait"--' T Every penny secured here for the Red Cross, by subscription or other wise, goes either to the National head quarters or is used in the purchase of supplies and other such attendant ex penses. The cost of administration is absolutely nothing, since the work of ail conneciea wun me urKauigauun its gratis. When these facts are fully known, 1 feel sure that Hood River neonle universally will express an an- Sreciation of the work done by the ood River valley men and women who have so cheerfully and in patriotic spirit donated their valuable time for the great cause. Respectfully, , Wi 4GZ ' O- Blanchar, Chairman Hood River Chapter of the I, American IMationai Kefl cross Asso ciation The Kaiser's Dream The following poem which is going the rounds of the newspapers, was written at the front in France by William k. McLachlan, Iwho"" is serving with one of the bcotch, Highlander regiments. Editor. There's a story now current, tho strange it may seem, Of the great Kaiser Bill and his won derful dream. Being tired of the allies, he lay down tt in bed, Z- - -And amongst otherthings he dreamt he was dead And in a fine coffin was living in state, With a guard of brave Belgians who lamented his late. He wasn't long dead 'till he found to his cost. That his soul, like his soldiers, had surelv been lost. On leaving the earth to heaven he went straight. And upon ariving up there gave a knock at the gate. But St. Peter looked out, and in voice loud and clear Said : "Begone, Kaiser Bill, we don't want you here. "Well," said the Kaiser, "that's very uncivil. I suppose after that I must go to the devil?" So he turned on his heel and off he did go i r" ' m At the top of his speed to the regions below And- when he got there he was filled with dismav. When waiting outside he heard Old Nick say v , To his imps: "Now .look here boys, 1 give you a warning, I'm expecting the Kaiser down here in the morning. But don't let him in, for to me it's quite clear ci " He's a dangerous man, and we don't want him here. If once he gets in there'll be no end of quarrels, f-. T-'- In fact I'm afraid he'll corrupt our Wgood morals, "i i : "O, Satan, my dear friend," the Kai- ser then cried. "Excuse me for listening3while wait ing outside. If you don't admit me where can I go?" "Indeed," said the devil, "I really don t know. "Oh, do let me in, I'm weary and cold, Said the Kaiser, quite anxious t" enter Nick s fold. "Let me sit in a corner, no matter how hot. "No!" said the devil, "most certainly not. We don't admit people for riches or pelf: Here are sulphur and matches, make a hell tor yourselt. Then he kicked Wilhelm out and van ished in smoke, And just at that moment the Kaiser awoke. He jumped out of bed in a shivering sweat, And said: "Well, that dream I shall never foraret. That I won't go to heaven I know very well. But it's really too bad to be kicked out of hell." The Pathfinder. AT THE GEM TODAY "The Boy Girl," with Violet Mer sereau. Bluebird's daintiest star.

You can get relief from racking, hack ing coughs, from wheezy, aneezy breath ing, from raw sore throat and tiht chest. W. G.

Fishing seemed to be rather poor till in the afternoon, as the boys had eaten their lunch and were sitting back to have a good smoke forgetting all about their fishing. But Joe, with determination, sprang upon a boulder and went to fishing again, with the hope of not getting entirely skunked. He had not been fihsing very long till suddenly some big, dark object ap peared in front of him as it came from deep water into shallow. Joe could not magine what it was at tirst. Sudden ly he could see its tail as it swam past him. "At last boys, we got 'im now, we got 'im now." Young Annala, greatly excited ran up over the bank. dropped his fisp hole and stood there with his hands in his pockets. About that time Joe managed to get near to the fish, grabbing at the ladder. At the same time Wallace gave a quick jerk bringing Mr. Salmon up against a rock, jerking the hook out of its mouth and catching Joe by the hand. Joe says, "No you don't go him now." About that time the hsh was back in the river. Mr. Salmon won a decisive victory over Wallace May on aggres siveness. It was a log. Charles Barnes, a rancher, whose place is east of Neal creek at the base of Bear mountain, now holds the record for Hood Kiver county as the slayer of rattle snakes. One day last week, while in search of a horse that had strayed away on the side of Bear mountain, Mr. Barnes peeped into a depression, formerly the resting place of a huge boulder, and declares he was astounded to see a wriggling mass of serpents. The snakes were fished out wun a long suck, wnenaunaa been dispatched, Mr. Barnes took count. He had killed 31 snakes and he teturned home, with 122 trophy rat tlers. Forrest L. Moe, an orchardist of the Odell district, tells of a well defined system of signals used by China pheas ants, cocks and old hens on his ranch to warn of .the approach of hawks that frequent the neighborhood. "Invariably," says Mr. Moe, "the pheasants sight the marauder first. The pheasant cock will tmit his rau cous squawk. The barnyard rooster immediately sounds his warning and the old hens transmit the message, telling of danger to the little chicks. As a result of this wariness, hawks have not been able to catch any of the chickens on our place ths season. While local fishermen, because of the high water in Hood river, re ported poor fishing, L. H.; Arneson, W. H. Robertson and R. B. Lindsay, who returned recently from a trip to Lrooked river in Crook county, declare that the trout were biting well. The local orchardists made the iourney to the central Oregon stream by automo bile, traveling by way of Dufur, Tygh Valley and Prineville. The men say the roads of Central Oregon are in fine shape. Hood River cows are continuing "to do'their bit" by giving birth to twin calves. Three sets of twin calves, the first ever known for the valley, have been born during the past month. The first calves all four heifers, were bora on the adjoinnig ranches of W. A. and Marsh Isenberg. in the Frankton district. L. M. KaTstetter, of Summit, reports that his family milch cow found twins last week a male and a female. Pioneers of Oregon, who came to the Northwest before 1860, according to a bill adopted by the last legislature, will not have to pay fishing and hunting li censes. Oregon sportsmen's licenses now cost as follows : Fishing, $1.50, hunting $1.50, combination $3. The several warm days last week developed the camping and' fishing fe ver among numerous Hood River peo ple. Dozens of parties spent the week end on the headwaters of the different branches of Hood river. J. H. Fredricy, accompanied by Judge Derby and Roy E. Johnson, motored out on Hood river Friday and succeeded in landing several fine trout. To the Public. "I have been using Chamberlain's Tablets for indigestion for the past six months, and it affords me pleasure to say I have never used a remedy that did me so much good." Mrs. C. E. Riley, Illion, S. Y. Chamberlain's Tab lets are obtainable everywhere. FOREST SERVICE BUYS NEW LOOKOUT HOUSES 'District Forester Cecil, of Portland, has just placed an order for material for three standard lookout houses to be erected at the summits of Mount Mc Laughlin, Diamond Peak and Rustler Peak on the Crater national forest, in July.

The lower part of the house is the lokout man's living quarters, while the cupola contains the Osborne fire finder, camps, and other lookout equipment.
