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

was warm weather and I Used to go in i

were out in the boat he would follow j

"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

A new kind of dining car was dem
onstrated litre one day last week. W.
I. Kilzwas transporting a cow and ;i
call' across the city by motor truck.
Tied to an upright piece of the title I
rack, the cow was standing. The cal
was making itself perfectly at heme,
as the motor truck was piloted tlm ug i
ti e city streets pedestrians cheered ;
the little calf was suckling its rno her
as calmly as though the two were in
the home barnyard.
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. The West Fork of the river,
its source largely from clear creeks o i
the West side of Mount Hood, is th
only branch of the local stream w hici
is now at its best. The hot weather i

they are milky.
The While Salmon river has been
the lure of many local anglers the
past week. All report tine catches,
the best basket reported was caught
by Farl "ranz. Jn the vicinity of
Husum, Mr. Franz caught lilt trout in
an huur that tilled his big creel.

"Oh Hoy"!!
"My, what delicious ice cream,"
"Chee, dat's good."
"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.
