H. Gill from Mrs. M. V. Pvle. corresponding secretary of the National League for Women's Service, who conduct a boMiert' and Sailors' club in New Yoik city, telling of a recent visit at the club of Chas. Gill, Mrs. Gill's son, who is in the navy : I am writmsr to let you know that we have had the pleasure of welcoming your son at our cfub. He is well, work- 7 , j i .' t,:. ,1... "The National League for Women's Service opened its offices last summer for a Soldiers and Sailors' club, which is open every evening in the week and Saturday and Sunday afternoons. All soldiers and sailors in or near New York are welcome ; the uniform ia the only card of admission necessary. On Thursdays and Saturdays there are dancing classes and general dancing, also music and singing, we arrange for some simple form'of entertainment on Sundays and other evenings of the ween, trying: vo give wie uvya m nappy, homelike time. At their own request we have on Sunday afternoons an hour of hymn singing. There are also French classes each evening and boys bringing in clothes for repairs cawfcave them mended at the club. On The second floor are reading and writing rooms, which are always open. Notices on the desks urge the boys not to forget to write home. A canteen has now been started in the basement and here boys can eet good food very reasonably between 4 o clock in the afternoon and 10 o clock at night, . "So you will be glad to know that your boy has made friends here in New York and he can have a real bit of home life in the League's rooms.where many women whose sons have gone are trying to care for the boys from far away." Will McGuire in a letter to Edward Thornton, declares that he pins his faith to the airplane that America will soon launch in the battle against the hun. Young McGuire, who recently transferred from rating as musician to the aviation section of the navy, says : 'I could tell you lots of things, but it would not be good policy and against the rules, but take it from me the world is going to get a surprise when the navy gets her big aeroplunes to working." Young McUuire says that there is all the difference in the world in the tem perament of the eastern and western boys in the service. "Trie eastern boys, he says, "are always kicking, but never a grumble is heard from the lads of the Pacific const region. The other day we had canned salm on at a meal. I remarked that I came from where they caught the salmon. A messmate, a lad from the eastern United States, wanted to know if 1 had ever eaten any fresh salmon, and how it tasted. Fred H. Bell, now in England, mem ber of a field artillery battery of the American expeditionary forces, says that he never in all of bis life thought so strongly of his borne and home folks as during his voyage across the Atlan tic. According to the young artillery man's letter, it was all caused by a Hood Kiver apple, a blue Diamond, packed by the Apple Growers Associa tion. The apples, probably a part of the 100 car gift subscribed through the initiative of the International Apple Shippers' Association,' were served to the soldiers on the transport. Mr. Bell in a letter written to his father states that he has learned in a few days more about history than he would have learned in years by reading and studying books. - He states that his battery is in training near a won derful old cathedral which he had just visited. English soldiers are instruct ing the .Americans and from them, says Mr, Bell, the Amexes are learn ing much of conditions in the trenches. Writing to his mother, Walter Cop per, also a member of the 18th Engin eers, says the expeditionary soldiers are being well cared for. The Engin eers, according to the letter, are living in huts, each about 30x85 feet in size and with 40 men to the hut. "We have two stoves and nlentv of fuel," he writes, "and all of us are provided with enough all-wool army blankets to keep us comfortable. We are all furnished with the best of shoes, rubber boots and rain coats. Wooden shoes are worn by every one here. They cost a franc a pair, or 34 cents of our money. If you'll send me your measure, I'll send you a pair that will last you the rest of your life. They are light and comfortable." Joseph R. Vannier. who enlisted in the Q. M. C, December 10, is now sta tioned at American Lake. He writes that he is especially well fed, has plen ty of warm clothing and comfortable quarters in which to Bleep. He says : The Y. M. C A. is about hve min utes' walk from my detachment and we spend a good many evenings tnere. 1 never realized what the Y. M. C. A. meant before I joined the army ; it is certainly the soldiers' home, and the best part of it is, it follows the boys as near the front as it can. There is a Y. W. here too, or hostess house it is called. There is always music and a cafeteria and a general good time for all. We are all one big lamny there. I am as well satisfied, and like my work here just as well as I could any where away from home." Mrs. J. A. Mohr received a letter re cently from her two sons, Carl and Paul, who are in training in the avia tion.corps in San Antonio, Texas, that they are enjoying the Dest oi heaitn and are experiencing different kinds of weather in 24 hours, from nice balmy weather and dust storms to snow, es pecially when those storms they call "northers" arrive. They also write that they have not seen-a Hood River apple since they arrived in Texas. There - are lots of Yakima and We- natchee valley ancles, also Mosier Wines aps on the market, which you can buy for five cents each, or three for a dime. They send their best re gards to all inquiring friends. , Mr. and Mrs. Harry Bailey have re ceived a letter from Capt. H. B. Lan gille, formerly city recorder, who is now with the naval service- stationed at Long Beach, Calif. Capt. Langille, on leaving Hood River, several years, ago resided for a time in Palo Alto, Cajif. Later he became a member of me iacuuy oi ine mecnanicai engin eering department of the University of California, where he was engaged at the time of receiving a commission. Capt. Langille writes that be would appreciate more than anything else at the present time his fill of Hood River apples. x "Any kind of an old apple down here," his letter states, "costs us a nickel. The poorest of cooking stuff sells for two pounds lor ZD cents. Mr. and Mrs. L. A. Kerr last week Our splendid co-operative arrangement with A. M.

A. school, where he specialized in gas and electrical engineering, states that he has been promoted to rank of sergeant. The young man, member of an aero squadron, is stationed at Camp Mac Arthur, Tex. Tales of drunkenness among Ameri can soldiers are not founded on facts, according to a letter from John Cop per, member of the 18th Engineers in France, to his parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Copper. An absolute ban has been placed by American .soldiers on qognac, champagne, rum and whiskey. "The soldier," writes young Copper, "can only -buy beer, and he cannot ob tain that after 8.30 in the evening." Mr. and Mrs. L. A. Kerr, of the Frankton district, have just received a letter from their son, Arthur, mem ber of theJ20th Engineers stationed at Camp Belvoir, Va., who told of an in teresting parade march through Wash ington, where they were reviewed by high army officials. .

Aged 71 and Bays First Rubbers Saturday afternoon, when he visited a department store and purchased a pair of rubber shoes, donning them im mediately, D. E. Stanton broke a rec ord that cannot be equalled by another man in Oregon. "I will soon be 71 years old," said Mr. Stanton, "and this is the first time in my life I ever had on a pair of overshoes. 1 would bave got by an other year at least if it had not been for thiB Bnowstorm.
