That the Chevrolet is more commonly compared with cars selling at much high er prices is justification for the conscien tious effort of its manufacturer. The new model Chevrolet "Four Nine ty" Touring Car and Roadster, attain a standard of excellence uncommon of cars at these prices. This is a claim we would he delighted to prove we could ask no greater favor than to do so. Would you have a good-looking car? The Chevrolet has it in full measure. VVouldyouhave strength? Vanadium steel is used wherever unusual strength is re quired. Would you have comfort? Prop er spring suspension together with com fortable upholstering and roominess meet your comfort-wishes to the fullest de gree. Would you have power and low upkeep? The wonderful valve-in-head motor with which each Chevrolet is equipped provides power far in excess of ordinary requirement or emergency; and the direct-application-( if -power principle insures maximum power on minimum fuel.

FIRST NATIONAL BANK Member Federal Reserve System HOOD RIVER, OREGON L L GUIGNARD & NURSERY CO. 5832 (00 1 1 ONJUNE 5TH MEN 21 SINCE JUNE MIST RETORT Registrations Will Be Conducted by Draft Boards at Voting Precincts the Same as Last Year Wednesday, June 5, is a date of great importance to every man in the United I years since registration day June 5, j one year ago. For on this coming June j 5 will be held another registration day, ! on which every man who has passed his 1 21st birthday since last June 5 must register with his local draft, board. This applies to non-citizens as well as to citizens. No man who comes within the age limit is exempted from registering, unless he is already in the military or naval service of the I'nited States. And men 21 years old who for any reason have been discharged from the military or naval service must reg ister June 5. The registration w ill be conducted by the local draft hoards throughout the United States. Each draft hoard is re quired to post publicly the location of its registration place, and men 21 years old must present themselves there June f for registration. The registration places will open on registration day at 7 o'clock in the morning, and will be open until i o'clock that night. No excuse will be accrpted for fail ure to register. The burden of inform ing himself of the time and place for registration is by law placed on the registrant himself. Failure to regis ter is punishable by imprisonment up to one year in jail. Attempts to evade registration will bring disaster to the evader. All city, county, state and United States peace officers have been specifically directed to assist in bringing about a complete registration of men 21 years old, and to examine the registration lists and report immediately to the federal au thorities the names of any persons lia ble to registration known by t hem to have failed to register. Men who are too ill to appear at tin registration place in person must send some competent person to the local board to obtain a registration card with authority to rill it out. This card when tilled must be mailed or taken in per son to the local board in time to be filed on registration dav, Juite 5. Provision is also made for registra tion by mail of men 21 years old who will unavoidably be absent from their home jurisdictions on registration day. All such persons should proceed im mediately, without waiting for regis tration day, to the local board nearest to the place in which they happen to be, and have their registration cards made out by this board. The card must then be mailed by the registrant, to gether with a self-addressed and stamped envelope for return of a reg istration certificate, to the registrant's own local board. As this registration card must reach the local board by June 5, men 21 years old who will be absent from their home jurisdiction on June 5 should make haste now to have their registration cards filled out so they can mail the cards without delay to the proper board. The War department has issued the following official warning to all men coming within the 21 year old age limit : "Caution- All male persons, citizens of the United States, and all male per sons residing within the United States who have, since the 5th day of June, 11)17, and on or before the day set for registration by the President's procla mation (this coming June 5), attained the age of 21 years, must register. The only exceptions are persons in the military or naval service of the United States.'which includes all officers and enlisted men of the regular army, the navy, the marine corps, and the na tional guards and naval militia, while in the service of the United States, and officers in the Officers reserve corps and enlisted men in the Enlisted re serve corps while in active service." MERCHANTS WILL MEET FOOD MEN The merchants of Hood River will meet tomorrow evening at the Com mercial club with County Food Admin istrator (iibson and representatives of the State F'ood Administration for a discussion of the plans of putting Ore gon on an absolute wheatless ;basis. The plans were launched last Sunday, when the state was put on a five day trial period in which merchants were to sell no wheat (lour. During the five day period Food Ad ministration officials will meet with merchants over the state in an effort to work out the plan for a total ab stinence. While the plan is urged by the National Food Administration, it is not a compulsory one. It is a vol unteer plan of the Oregon Food Ad ministration. Mr. Gibson says that a number of families of Hood River have volun tered during the past several weeks to abstain from all wheat flour. More than five barrels of flour have been re turned to merchants. WUILLE WILL BUY Stockholders of the Fruit Growers' Exchange by unanimous vote Friday night accepted a proposition from Dan Wuille & Co. for the purchase of the cooperative agency's storage plant, valley receiving warehouses and all other properties. The Exchange for the past five years has been affiliated with the Northwestern Fruit Ex change, of Seattle. The Exchange will be operated throughout the strawberry season with F. W. Buff, who has been with the or ganization, for "the past 11 months, in charge of sales. Mr. Buff will also close up all business of the agency. The acquisition of this property will greatly augment the growing business of the purchasers, as heretofore fhey have been unable to store or load in the town of Hood River. Last year they operated their own plant at Odell, and received and loaded in four other j warehouses operated under their man jagement in the valley, besides their own plant in White Salmon and other houses owned or leased elsewhere. For the last four years their shipments have steadily increased until they have i come to be recognized as a permanent and substantial factor in the fruit bus iness of the Northwest. An English company, with Home offices in London, they have exported practically all their fruit to England, France. Australia and South America, and their returns to growers, ever since their first shipments, have more than doubled their patronage each suc ceeding year. I.i.st year's business was conducted under great handicaps, no exports was possible but this year the firm's American manager, Mr. Oliver, extends hoie of again being; able to get most, if not all of their i apples across the water. I The office of Ian Wuille & Co. in the I First National Bank building w ill be closed in a few days, and Mr. Woolpert : will thereafter be found in the offices of the former Exchange building. i CLASS OF 1918 GETS DIPLOMAS The members of the class of 11U8 of the Hood River high school paticipated in their graduating exercises Tuesday evening at the high school auditorium.

Claxton, whose orchard home is less than a quarter of a mile south of the city, because of the earth fill being made to replace the wooden trestle across Indian creek, finds it necessary to travel a distance of more than two and a half miles each way on shopping errands. After Mr. Claxton had figured that he would have to travel a distance of 2(M miles before the new till is completed, he inter- 4-Minute Men-4 J. W. CRIILS Lincoln's Gettysburg Address Ml MORIAI.

Mr. Claxton says that not one of his neighbors refused assistance with the temporary work. "L)r.J. Williams, Civil war veteran," says Mr. Claxton "didn't have any team but we pressed him into service escorting workers back and forth from their homes with his automobile." SUNDAY SCHOOL NOTES At the recent County Sunday School Association convention the matter of collecting for publication matters of interest from the various Sunday schools of the county was considered. W. C. Keck, whose address is Route No. 1, Hood River, was appointed to look into the matter further and if it seemed feasible to arrange for the printing of such news in our local papers. The editors of both papers have been visited and will cordially handle the news from our schools if gotten to them in good form. Super intendents or secretaries of all the Sunday schools in the county are asked to send in good items of interest from their respective schools at least once a month. You may send to JVlr. Keck until further notice through this col umn. Shall we not make this an en couragement to all the workers of the county and thus make our schools a greater benefit to all the people of the county? The following resolution was unani mously passed at one of the Odell schools lat Sundav : "We, the mem bers of the M. E. Sunday school of Odell, do unanimously endorse and heartily agree with iir. Lewellen in all that he said against cigarettes for our soldiers at the I'irie Grove county Sunday school convention. Also we do heartily endorse the action of the delegates who acted on the resolution committee in condemning the distribu tion of cigarettes to the soldiers.

MEN TO VISIT CEMETERY Veterans and Relief Corps Women to B Accompanied by Knights of Pvthias Members PRESIDENT LINCOLN'S GETTYSBURG ADDRESS November ImU Fourscore and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are cre ated equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war; testing whether that Nation, or any Na tion so conceived, and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. But in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate- we cannot consecrate we cannot hallow this ground. 1 he brave men living ami dead, who struggled here, have conse crated it far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember, what we say here, but it cannot forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedi cated to the great task remaining before us, that from these hon ored dead we take increased devo tion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion-that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain - that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom--and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth. The members of Canby Post, G. A. R., accompanied by members of the Woman's Relief Corps, will assemble this morning at 1. 150 o'clock at the Knights of Pythias hall, where they will be met by membersjof the frater nal body with their automobiles. The veterans and women of the Corps will be taken to Idlewilde cemetery by' the rvnigms wno win join mem in strew ing the graves of departed comrades with roses and spring flowers und in observing ritualistic service over the graves. the old soldiers, their wives and families and members of the Relief Corps will return to the high school dining rooms, where they will have a picnic dinner. 1 he Boy Scouts, who will also ac company the veterans to the cemetery. will be guests of the Relief Corps at the picnic dinner. BERRIES ARE RIPEN ING VERY SLOWLY Strawberries are moving from here now at the rate of from If) to 30 erateH, express shipments, daily. (.. W. Mc- Cullagh says he does not expect a car load of fruit before June 10. The cool weather is delaying the ripening of the berries. Myron S. Smith, prominent grower of Underwood, Wash., here Monday, says that the crop of that district, while late, will be of excellent quality this year. The harvest of strawberries began in earnest Monday, when a free employ ment office was opened here by C. B. Green, of the United States Immigra tion Bureau. The first express shipment, a half crate of fruit grown by J. L. I'easley, waH forwarded Wednesday of last week by the Fruit Growers Exchange. This concern will inaugrate a new method of handling berries this season. Grow ers will deliver their packed fruit to central assembling stations in the dif ferent districts, and it will then be called for by motor trucks operated by the agency. Thus berries will be shipped the same day they are picked. Where growers do their own hauling.it is said, many delay getting their fruit to shipping stations in time to be load ed out. BELL EXPRESSES THANKS TO LADS "The fire boys of Hood River deserve the greatest praise for their good work," says C. A. Bell, of the Mount Hood hotel, whose hostlery was with out doubt saved from destruction last week, when the fire boys, despite their decimated numbers, 12 members hav ing gone to war, rushed to the scene of the blaze in the old American boarding house. "1 want to express my sincerest thanks to the firemen," continues Mr. Bell. "As a result of their efforts my hotel sustanied only minor damage in stead of going up entirely in smoke." Mr. Bell's son, Fred, now in France with a light artillery regiment, was formerly a member of the fire depart ment. Planer Workman Insane John Matson, an employe at the Wind River Lumber Co. planer, brought here from Cascade Locks by Deputy Sheriffs Long and Hunt, was committed to the Eastern Oregon in sane asylum Tuesday. Matson rested under the hallucina tion that an enemy was constantly attacking him. At frequent intervals he would slash the air with fist or an open knife. The man also would stop by the roadside on the street, or at his work to remove his shoes and take off his socks, turning them wrongside out before returning them to hw feet. He is said to have repeated this trick sev eral times an hour. o
