Third (EX State Street Stewart BlocK Phono i i;ak i ii mi,i: M;in.i 1 A pot of paste in the (I lacier had attracted the tiny workers of na ture that produce forhiden alcohol, find incidentally the odor of the pastepot was making itself known throughout the otlice and reniindini; one of that tnhaccj advertisement sloiran, "My Niise Knows." The circumstance put Mark K. Moe, recently hack from a 21 months ser ice with an overseas com bat aero squadron, in a reminiscent mo. -I. All the happenings of the days id little well conked food, and drudgery that f 1 1 to the lot of aero squadrons in those last months before the armistice was signed last year were by no means without levity, as Mr. Moe's story in dicates. The squadron had tunred into the billets of a wartorn French village late , one nijrht, after woik by flashlight 'over engine and fuselage, so the story I jrnes. 1 1 tm shells were dropping around at intervals. In the darkness or by the intermittent rays of tlnshlinhts the tired men were grouped talking or !-ee-in(. A shell had just shaken the old stone buildinc; and some of the old tilmn rattled oil. "Then," says Mr. Moe, "we pmelled something peculiar in the room, and in an instant some body had sounded the gas alarm. We tiihiled around for an hour with our masks on before an ollieer ordered them oil'. The smell persisted, and it va discovered that one of the men, a kind of a heavy weight, whose feet, in summer weather should have had a bath twice a day, had his shoes olf. If a shell had struck that old dump, it could not have drowned our roar of laiiehter. Amid much laughter we hunt led our comiade out in the dark to look for the village pump." Several months ago Carl Houston, son of Mr. and Mrs. K. K. Houston, of this cay, was worrying over the fail lire of receiving a discharge from the Navy, but he is now sincerely happy, ' according to a letter just received b his mother from Panama City that he was retained as one of I'ncle Sam's gobs. The young man, who made sev eral trips acrops the Atlantic in convoy service last year, is with the U. S. S. 'l.arleston one of the I'ucitic- Fleet ei route up the coast. He writes: "We left Philadelphia on July 22 and went to St. Thomas, Virgin Islands. We staved there about lib hours and t hen proceeded to the Panama Canal.; Mi tar we nave liacl just a pleasure trip. 1 would have missed it had I been dis charged sooner. "If 1 had lots of time for a vacation 1 would like to stay here a few months. 1 like this place about as well as any I have ever seen. The only thing' against it is the heat. I am tanned almost the color of a native. "Of all the grand things in the world, the most wonderful to my mind is the Panama Canal. The whole trip is paid for by passing through the ca nal. I expect to be mustered out a few days after arvrival at P.remerton. " Lowell M. Niekelsen, son of Mr. and Mrs. C. 1. Niekelsen, who was one of the high school students to answer the colors when war broke out between the I'nited States and Germany, leturned home Monday from Cape May, New Jersey, w here he had been stationed j since the signing of the armistice. Lowell, who is only a little past Un years of ago, graduated from the radio; department of Harvard University and ' was assigned to duty on the super j dreadnaught Virginia, and was released I fr.-m this post at his request to join the I Armed Guard and then served aboard ! both submarines and subchasers, and w as also assigned to radio work in the j aviation section and has made many ; sensational Mights. Mr. Nickelsen's discharge papers show that he was ; serving as first class electrician. ! The recent sighting of seals off the mouth of Hood river has recalled to Axel N. kahni his experiences with a baby seal in ls;, when Mr. Kahm anil a Scotchman, Joe Key, were fishing on the Columbia. "We were camped on ls-mile island just west of Mosier," sys Mr. Kahm. "One day while rowing trom the main land we heard something like a babv cry ing. My partner said he thought it was probably a baby seal. And sure enough it was. We soon sighted him u(i on the shore, and we drove the big tint bottom skitf toward him hieh oil the bank. "Hut the little rascal showed fight, and would no doubt in his fright have bitten us. We finally penned him iLwr w ith several rails. We loaded him ii the boat, after a rone was placed around a tb.ike and took him onto the beach near camp. 1 built a pen around him and to make him comfortable sank a big tub, which 1 tilled with watel, ii the sand. After three or four days he grew a great appetite and seeme i ti relish the fish 1 gave him. "Then we noticed that the rope kii causing the Hipper to swell, ami we thought it best to free him. When we drove him to down the river and saw the seal disappear in the water we waved him goodbye, but this wasn't to he. In less than two hours he was back crying for fish. After that Jhe became a nuisance, and we couldn't keep him out of camp not even w ith elaborate barricades of brush and chunks of wood, arranged along the steep trail, leading up to an eminence from the water's edge. His nocturnal annovances irritated my partner and he would cut a switch and lick that seal all the way back to the river. One night the Scotchman was angered and beat the seal cruelly. He disap peared and we never saw him again. "1 was sorry to see him go, for be ami 1 had become good friends. It was warm weather and I Used to go in i swimming frequently. The 9eal Would! accompany me ami sw im all around ,-e j me, play ing w ith me as though 1 were i another teal. At times he woliid crawl up on my fhoulders. When we i were out in the boat he would follow j like a dog, and come near at times and whine to he taken in. "1 notice that some of the old tim ers declare that no seals have ever been seen above Cascade Locks. M personal experience is proof of the error. " Oscar Vandcrhilt puts thrift to prae tice on his place. An accumulation of champagne bottles, relics of days when beverage of the apple district was not limitud to cider, are being utilized by Mr. Vanderhilt for purposes their mak ers never dreamed of. Mr. Vandeibilt has found the bottles, with their long, graduated necks, excellent stoppers for the holes bored in irrigation flumes to control the water. And today, emp tied uf their "extra dry" hut their outer surface washed by the life-giving and cool glacial w aters that put a zt si in Hood River apples, scores of these reminders of bygone days of convivial ity may be seen flicking in the hides of the tlumeside tir boards. "1 have also found the champagne bottles excellent for stopping up rat holes, for the rodents can't gnaw through," says Mr. Vanderhilt. "And they cannot be beaten for prevent nur the loss of water down a gopher's bur row. It's all right with me that t l ev will not be needed again for wine.

Tim ISeatty and E. J. Middlesivarl spent hist Thursday fishing on th Wert Fork of Hood River near I lee. Both men caught basket fuls of tine trout, averaging about IS inches i,i length.

"My word, how perfectfully delight ful, donchaknow. " These, and similar other expressions greeted Joe Icicle's latest product, which is being dispensed at Hicks', of course. A new kind of ice cream for Hood River people; in fact, so new that most of 'em had to ask the name of it twice before finally certain of the correct pronunciation, Une spoonful was enough to make them certain of the delicious flavor or the new product, however. Tutti-Frutti ice cream, made from pure cream 'n all kinds of assorted fruita and nuts, is the caure of all the discussion. The best ice cream they ever tasted, was thetipinion of many, while others merely contented themselves with the mumbled word, "delicious," as they reached for another spoonful. So popular has Joe Icicle's new prod uct proven, that we have decided to make it a regular feature during the summer months. No increase in price; still eleven cents a dish. So give your stomach a square deal and yourself a treat, at Hicks', tomor row. Yours for personal service, Joe Icicle.
