NAVY LIFE REELS
DRAW BIG CROWDS
Two reels of moving pictures, depict-'
ing life of the United States Navy,
were shown here Monday at the Eleo
tric theatre, where they created a
great deal of attention. The pictures
showed every phase of the great first
line of defense. They were accom
pained by A. B. Provost, chief machin
ist's mate, who was here to secure re
cruits. "We want machinists, cooks and mu
sicians," said Mr. Provost. "Except
for these the navy is full. Cnnsidering
the fact that the navy has taken in by
volunteer enlistment such a huge num
ber of men in the past six months, the
volunteer system is not an entire fail
ure. But it cannot he applied to the
army like it can to the sea fighters, for
in the former branch the enormous
numbers needed, as has been found by
experience, makes the system imprac
ticable." -
On next Monday a real Whithead tor
pedo will be exhibited in Hood River.
An accurate description of the missle
is given by the navy.
The Whitehead torpedo is the one
most used in the U. S. Navy, and is
made up in four parts :
1. The head, containing the explo
sive. 200 pounds of wet gun cotton, a
dry gun cotton primer, and a fulminate
of mercury detonator; also a firing de
vice, called the war nose, is screwed in
the forward part of the head.
2. The air flask and immersion
chamber. The air flask is made of
hollow, forged nickel steel, .37 of an
inch in thickness, Jand is fitted with
hemispherical forward and after bulk
heads, rivetted and sweated to the
flask. The immersion chamber is of
sheet steel, secured to the after end of
the air flask, and contains the hydro
static piston and pendulum, which con
trol the horizontal rudders.
3. The afterbody contains the en
gine cage, in which is a four cylinder,
35 horse power, 1200 r. p. m. com
pressed air engine, the valve group,
the combustion and fuel flasks and the
horizontal engine. The afterbody also
contains the gyro compartment, in
which is mounted the gyroscope and
the steering engine that controls the
vertical rudders.
4. The tail cove contains the for
ward and after propller shafts, the
propellers, the cross-head gear, which
transposes the motion of the shafts,
and the tail blades, on which are
mounted the horizontal and vertical
rudders.
Thiftorpedo is 5.2 meters in length,
45 centimeters in diameter, weight 1452
lbs., range 4,000 yards, and runs at any
depth between 6 and 22 feet below the
surface of the water, at speeds ranging
between 28 and 41 knots, air in flask at
2250 pounds per square inch, 12 cubic
feet air space.
The navy topedo, which will be
shown in Hood River on August 13, is
Model No. 1 Whitehead.
MRS. CASTNER BEGINS
DEFENSE CAMPAIGN
Mrs. Chas. H. Castner, chairman of
the Woman s 'committee of the Council
of National Defense, Oregon Division,
wrote last week to 800 women whom
she has appointed temporary chairmen
of meetings to be heldlin the near fu
ture for the purpose of launching the
registration of Oregon women, asking
them to organize defense councils in
their respective communities.
"You will at once call a meeting,"
the letter states, "of the presidents of
all women's organizations, including
club, Parent-Teacher, W. C. T. U.,
grange, fraternal, church and any oth
ers that may exist and that receive
mail at your postoffice. You will then
proceed to elcet permanent officers, in
cluding chairman, vice chairman, sec
retary and treasurer.
"The plan of the proposed organiza
tion is to link together in complete
working cooperation all existing or
ganizations of women to make elfec
tive the patriotic service we are'called
upon to perform. As soon'as your or
tranization is perfected, cards for reg
istering the women for service, also
the Hoover food pledge will be sent
vou.
"There can be no doubt that the pa
triotic loyalty and devotion of the
women of your community will enter
enthusiastically into this service, and
that you will spare neither time nor
pains in perfecting your organization
and taking the registration census in
methodical and accurate manner, rem
embering that your carrying forward
these instructions promptly is a patri
otic duty you owe your country and
vour state.
The postmasters of several hundred
smaller offices, where no women's or
ganizations exist, were written by
Mrs.Castner, who asked that the let
ter of instruction be turned over to
some representative woman of the
community.
Lights Cause Burglar Alarm
Lights of a bedroom chandelier dis
covered brilliantly aglow one night last
week in the home of William M
Sylvester, a member of the office force
of the Apple Growers Association, who
with Mrs. Sylvester was away on an
outing at Cannon Beach, created a bur
glar alarm among the residents of Cas
cade avenue. Night Marshal brazier
was called to investigate. Mr. Frazier
directed the rays of an electric search
light into the dining room and parlor
of the home, for all windows were
locked and doors barred, but nothing
seemed disturbed.
Neighbors gathered to see the mys
terv licht. and ' spooks were men
tioned. George Stranahan, owner of
the house, was notified and entered the
building to switch off the lights, which
he thinks were turned on by some lar.
Nothing further than some electrical
energy, which- of course was recorded
by the never idle meter, was missing.
Berry Prices are High
The first complete returns made by
shipping concerns of Hood River for
this season's strawberry crop was
made last week by the Hood River
ruit Co. which returned to the grow
ers $3 per crate f. o. b. Hood River for
24 dry pint cratemeasure. ' This is the
highest average price that has ever
been received for Hood Kiver straw
berries in the history of the industry
extening over a period of over 25
years. H. F. Davidson, president of
the Davidson rruitlx., and the pion
eer shipper of Hood River straw ber
ries, was the sales manager for the
Hood Kiver fruit Co.
The IHood IRiver Fruit Co. has filed
articles of incorporation with the sec
retary of fstate, incorporating in the
sum'of $10,000 capital Istock. The in
corporators are Chas. H. Castner, The-
ressa Castner and Mae Davidson. The
ressa Castner is president of the State
Federation of Woman s clubs.

BILLY SUNDAY WEARS
ROCKEFELLER'S SHIRT
Billy Sunday, noted evangelist, was
one day last week caught in the act of
wearing a shirt which he admitted be
took from.the NewJYork country home
of John D. Rockefeller, Jr. He made
a complete confession.
Billy was showing two Portland vis
itors about his ranch, when one of
them noticed the initials. ""J. D. R..
Jr.," sewed in red letters on the front
pleat of the shirt he waswearing. In
cidentally, the shirt was an expensive
one, latest pattern and of costly
weave.
Inasmuch as Billy fhas but recently
returned to his ranch from the big
meeting in New York, the suspicion of
the visitors was so deeply aroused that
their.repeated glances at the initials
on the shirt brought forth a statement
by "Ma bunday implicating Billy.
who "confessed that it was one of the
well known young multi-millionaire's
shirts.
"It was this way," explained Billy.
I was a guest at the Rockefeller
home one night, and the following
morning, in packing my suitcase I got
one too many shirts in it: that s all.
As soon SB I discovered it I wrote Mr.
Rockefeller, saying I would return it
at once, but he telergaphed back, say
ing 'Don't mind ; a shirt isn't much in
the long run ,and you may have it.' "
bo billy is going around on his ranch
at this place doing farm work in a
multi-millionaire's latest.style shirt.
Summer "Snow Storm" Seen
The peculiar phenomenon of a "snow
storm raging while "a brilliant sum
mer sun shone was witnessed here last
week. Instead of snow flakes falling,
however, the air wasjfilled withjmill
ions of particles of the white fuzz that
forms on the blossoms of cottonwood
trees that grow in large groves along
the Columbia river f lowlands. The
fluffy down filled storerooms and offic
es, and, adhering to the nap, soon cov
ered new suits.
When the cottonwood blossoms begin
to fly Hood River residents know that
the Columbia river Jias receded from
the lowlands.

Do You Want Your Kidney's Ex

Kidney troubles are getting more
co.nmou every day. Government health
bureau figures pay deaths from this
cause are V2 more than 20 years ago. "
Anybody who suiters contttant back
ache, who feels blue, nervous and irrita
ble; who has dizzy spells, headache and
bladder disorders should suspect kidney
weakness. Overworked kidneys must
have a rest. Take things easier; live
more carefully. Take a good kidney
lemedy to build the kidneys up again.
But be sure to get Doan'a Kidney
Pills the oldest, the most widely used,
the best recommended of all kidney
pills, now in use all over the civilized
world, Don't experiment with your
kidneys. Thousands have already tested
Doan's. You have their experience to
go by. Plenty of cases right here in
ilood River. Here'sone:
Mrs', gurrell, 1205 Twelfth St., says:
"At every opportunity I get to recom
mend Doan'a Kidney Pills, 1 don't hesi
tate to do so, for 1 know they are very
reliable. In case of a backache or any
ither kidney disorders, I wouldn't con
sider anything but Doan's Kidney
Pills.",
Mrs, Surrell is only one of many Hood
River people who have gratefully en
dorsed Doan's Kidney Pi'ls. If your

don't simply ask for a kidney remedv,
ask distinctly for DOAN'S KIDNEY
