If Farmer Jones on the Knle Road brings a prize pumpkin to your othre 1 know all about it, although hundreds of miles away, as soon as some of his neighbors. You keep me posted on the improvements that Far mer Hrown, of the Lake road, contem plates to his barn "in the near fu ture." And when Farmer Smith, of the Lexington road, started a cheese factory at Kidder's Corners 1 knew it the day after publication. (1, country newspaper! Well may 1 say that "life without you would be a dreary waste." Unce a week you are to me an oasis in the desert of this hurly-burly life in a great city. The city man who does not take his "home" paper, providing- he was reared in the country, does not know what real enjoyment he misses. The news 1 get out of one issue is worth more than the yearly subscription. 1 devour every line of the local gossip and neighborhood correspondence, and when 1 lay the paper aside 1 praise the country editor for giving me this privi kge. Letters from home are very wel come, but one doesn't get as much news in a hundred letters as he dues in one issue of the home paper. And let ters are so uncertain ; you sometimes have to wail six months for a reply to your last one. Put it you are a sun scriber to the country paper it comes to you regululrv every week, rain or shine. You may lie in arrears, but the country editor sends the pa cr along with the hope that you will some day settle uji matters. To the man who cannot visit his old home every year or two the weekly perusal of his home paper is almost a good as a trip to boyhood scenes, lie reads where the little freckleface girl who sat behind him at school was mar ried to a city chap w ho holds a "lucra tive position w ith a street car com pany"-probably a motornian ; he is informed that the boy who was know n as the bully of the school was arrested for wife desertion and is "incarcerated in the county bastile;" he learns from his home paper that "the Thornton family will hold a reunion," and the news is also conveyed that "Aunt Eliza Knbertson will tie ninety three years old nejit week Tuesday," an event which the city man wishes he was able to be at home to celebrate. If "midnight marauders" (deal chickens from Jake Meeker's coop it is nicely told in the country (taper, and the editor would be driven out of town if he failed to make note of the benefit party at Odd Fellows hall for the M. L. church, which was "a grand suc cess socially and financially." The re ceipts, by the w ay, "amounted to over ; seven dollars. i 1 am interested in the personal gos ! sip of my old home, and it is with feel ! ings of genuine pleasure that 1 learn "Mr. K Mrs. Fred Myers wheeled over I from Edinboro last Sunday," or that I "Miss Ida Wessler is sojourning for a 1 few days with friends at Keepville." i The presence in town of Mrs. Frank U'ooley (nee Itaxter), of Buffalo, "for j merly a resident of our burg," is duly chronicled with the additional inferma : tion that she is accompanied by her ! tvvo-months-old baby boy." The burn- ing of "blank" Edson's barn is a big 1 piece of news, as ''it is the most disas i trolls coullagration that has visited ! this section since the Fire King des I trovtd Brown Brothers' cider mill in j li s?it." I If you are sick the country editor j writes a nice paragraph about your ill I ness, and he trusts that you will "soon be able to appear upon our streets 'again;" if your wife dies he tells of her many good traits of character ami that she "bore her last illness with Christian fortitude;" if your son gets married the country editor tells what a promising young man he is and what an "estimable and charming young lady" is the bride. If the crops are bad the country edi tor sympathizes with the farmer, and if the harvest is good he rejoices. He gives away hundreds of dollars worth of advertising every year for which he scarcely receives a polite "thank you ;" he is looked upon by some people as an object, of chanty, and when they pay him their subscription they say to themselves, "Well, it will help to keep him out of the poorhouse for a while ;" he works harder and puts in more hours at labor than any other man in town--if he didn't he would be in the ponrhouse. (), country editor, dear friend, 1 de rive much happiness every week from reading your paper, and wish it were in my power to make your business tenfoid better paving than it is. May your advertising increase until you aie complete to print a larger paper, and may your subscribers come to the ollice or send you by mail the money due you. May your days be full of happi ness, and'at night when you sit around the family hearthstone may your thoughts be those .of sweet content ment as one who is doing worthy work The interest!, letter below, written f bv Mrs. (J.

That is always disap pointing and ur.sntisfactory. The sate way is to cut this out and take it with you so as to make sure of guiing Chamberlain's Tablets. You will find nothing Quite so satisfactory for con stipation and indigestion. Am sendirg these lines to tell what is going on over on this side of the continent, tsfeeially of the Oregon Club, which 1 feel sjre the home folks will be interested to know about. Alter the home letters and the home newspapers are read 1 don't know of anything to give one, far from home, more real pleasure than talking w ith someone fiom tiinl's country home. j Here in the heart of the big city of j New York is the dace to find that real j pleasure. After spending1 part of this j afternoon in our Oregon Club I decided : to tell you about it. Hood River has I had some thare in it. as I understand the funds for its maintenance are from j a state appropriation. Down on West .)th street is a v ar Camp Community Service House called the "Hall of Mates. r.ach ot A W believe) states is represented with a separate room and hostess-but long ago Oregon outgrew one sniull room and moved to larger quarters at All Sever th Ave. Miss Gilliert. from Newberg, Ore., has been in charge every time I've been in the club. She prepared for Salvation Army overseas service, but armistice fuund her here ready to sail, so she gitvv her time to the returning soldiers, and since December has met every returning transport and with others carrying on the good work of the Oregon club. A large room has been turned into comfortable and cozy club rooms for the returning heros from Oregon. A piano, telephone, writing tables, read ing tables, tniokes, candy and every body's home paper welcome the hun dreils of guests who have taken advan tage of the Club. One corner especially appealing to the fellows, a duplication of "mother's pantry," for added comfort and pleas ure has this card on the wall: "If the cook's away, make your own colfee and sandwiches, and if the maid's away wash your dishes." Oregon ladies are hostesses often. Mrs. Arens, I'pper Valley, was hostess recently. The registration book includes all Oregon people now residing in the city, and every soldier, sailor and marine registers his name, home address and prtsent address, so he can be easily located. Yesterday M. Z Donnell, of The Dalles, registered. In the past few days these Hood River men haii registered: Kavmmi (llass, John Fen wick, II. S. S. Pueblo: Roy (lilt, II. S. S. Rochester, and a Mr. Jones, a tor mer Bartctt fellow, brother of Mrs. Greii-on, Better Fruil Cieison, was in the club room and very excited to find some from there. The walls are decorated with famil iar scenes of the Columbia River High way ana large placards lrom several well known cities with their slogans with welcomes to their boys, e. g., From The Dalles, "Welcome to our re turning soldiers and sailors from the Cherry City." Pendleton is there with her "Let 'er Buck" welcome. Why not Hood River? 1 think our Commer ial club would send a greeting from the Land of the Apple to welcome these Hood River heroes who come in so often. You might be interested to know how popular the Skookum apple advertise ment is here. Invariably when 1 am introduced by my friends and they say "from Hood River, Oregon, the usual ready reply is, "Oh, yes, the apple country. 1 saw that adveitisement in the city." 1 always look in the sub way cars for it and am seldom disap pointed. 1 travel with the thousands of others and am a victim of "subway- itis." Though once in my travels I met one easterner who wasn't geo graphical. After an introduction 1 was greeted by this remark, "Oh yes, Ore gon is very near Florida?" New York city grows more fascinat ing to nie each time 1 am here. I guess its bigness always appeals to westerners, and one can always find friends from home here. Up Ht Columbia University are four members of the Oregon Normal School faculty who were my instructors when 1 attended 0. N. S. 1 had dinner the other day with Miss Alberta (Ireene and Miss Laura Kennon. Mr. Pitman is there and E. S. Evenden, w ho be comes b regular member of the Teach ers' College faculty this summer. New York has been a wonderful host to all the returning soldiers, but the past few weeks especially to our sail ors. The ovation given the Meet in December, when I was here to join my hii.-lutnd when he returned after six months in European waters, was very mild compared to the reception given them upon their arrival from Guanta namo Bay, Cuba, April 14. Practically our entire tleet anchored that day on the Hudson river. A beautiful sight and thousands of people visiting the ships daily. At night each ship had a drill with search lights which was the most spectacular sight I've ever wit nessed. War Camp Service clubs had planned some form of entertainment fur each of the HO.OOO (Jobs when they weie olf duty. The Knights of Coluni bus entertained every morning with a special performance of the combined circuses of Barnum & Bailey and Ring ling Bros., then playing in Madison Square Garden. I heard some hun dreds of the officers also availed them selves of the opportunity of seeing an old time circus. So did I. Fifth Avenue must not be forgotten. Daily it was a scene for some parade, Victory Bond campaign or other activ ity. The avenue was gorgeously and beautifully decorated for the fleet. The absence of the flotilla of de stroyers and tleet of battleships was soon to be forgotten by busy New York, for May 1 they were taking po sition between the United States and England to safeguard the flyers in the big event in history, today's history, the trans-Atlantic flight. Laurence went out, his ship, the U. S. S. Flor ida, being stationed near the Azores. I am expecting his ship in any dav now. A year ago today 1 arrived in Phila delphia en mute tu the U. S. N. A., rtnnapi.-us, .via,, ana am more ot a westerner each day of the year. Our Glaciers are a source of great pleasure. We lock forward to each issue.
