While complaints have come from railway administration inspectors here that independent shippers are routing out apples badly damaged by frost, Walter Woolnert. of Dan Wuille & Co., 1 says Unit his concern has instituted a ', riuid inspection to prevent shipment of : damaged tipples. I "As soon as the damage from frost i became apparent," says Mr. Woolpert, "we immediately circularized our grow i era to beware of packing any fruit that I would deteriorate. Indeed, as our ap ples will go chiefly to export, thrre is no incentive to our growers to deliver i damaged apples."

Cram as county chairman, women of Hood River valley will endeavor to sell the entire 20,000 Red Cross Christmas seals sent here by the Oregon Tuberculosis Association. Other members of the committee are Mrs. W. A. SchafTner, Mrs. TrafTord E. Smith, Mrs. R. H. Bennett and Mrs. J, L). Guttery. Subcommittees have been appointed for all rural districts. The campaign will be waged until Christmas. "The people of the state are respond-, ing with the enthusiasm and optimism so characteristic of Oregon people to the call of the Oregon Tuberculosis As sociation for assistance in its annual Red Cross seal sale," said Floyd E. ; Dorris, who is in charge of the cam paign throughout the state. "Oregon has $44,260 to raise through the sale of the little Christmas Btickers it is a big sum and will require the assistance of every man, woman and child in the state, but I believe we will have it. 1 find the Oregon Tuberculo sis Association is well known through out the state and its work has com mended it to the public. Its recent work in making public health Burveys, forming county public health associa tions and establishing nurses in these counties has spread its fame and glory in a wonderful way. People are aroused as never before to the great reed for higher public health standards and it is little wonder since the report was is sued lrom the surgeon general's office to the effect that during the world war 100,000 men were found to be affected with tuberculosis and a recent survev sowed that the annual death rate from tuberculosis in the United States 19 150,000." The committee will present moving pictures at the Liberty theatre to stim ulate stamp sales. December 14, "Home Breakers," with Red CrosB trailers, will be shown here. AN I. W. W. FOUND WHO REALLY WORKS ! I All rules have a:i exception, it is f.ikI, and Hood River leonie claim to ne found an 1. W. W. who is a care. lul workman and who has a normal ser.-e of humor. This is i he story. . I a t fall Marshal Fnuier raided a c:::iii of idle men on the Colon. bia and he. itched them. Finding no eviii.-nce of a ":.d" tendency he released the men with the advice that they shoul 1 move on. The same day E. R. I'oolev applied to Mr. Frazier to find him a teamster. Within an hour after the convention with Mr. I'ooley Mr. Frazier met one of the men he had interviewed at the offensive camp. "Want a job as teamster?" asked Mr. Frazier. "Sure," the man renlied, and he left for the I'ooley ranch. For six weeks the teamster did his woik well. When the harvest was over he received his pay. Mutual eompli ments were passed' between him ar.d his employer. Then the man visited other working men and displayed an I. W. W. card. He had concealed it in the lining of a coat when the city otli cer had searched him at the hobo camp. THE FIRST MINING CLAIM IS FILED Will the region around the north base of Mount Hood ever be known for the productivity of its mines of precious metals? Four men, who have just made the first filing on a mining claim here, think so. The men filing have desig nated their business association as the Raid Rtitte Mining Co. They are : W., T. J. and W. A. Moody and W. A. Logue. W. Moody, it is said, has discovered the veins of silver and golrihearing ore after years of prospecting. Mr. Logue, a veteran printer, who says he was raised in the mining business, having come here from Butte, is of the opin ion that the mine will produce startling returns when propetly worked. Music Conservatory Coming The American Conservatory of Mu sic, with headquarters in Portland, has announced that a local branch will be established here December 15. Classes will be fomed in voice, piano, band and stringed instruments. A representative ot the Portland office was here this week to arrange for quarters. H-HH-H-I-l-l-H-W-I-I-I-l-I-I-l-I-r Letters From and About Soldiers I TH-HHl-HHHH-r-IH;--" The example of Arthur C. Lofts, who is just back from overseas with the "suicide fleet," which has been en gaged with subschapers in cleaning up North Sea mine fields, has been cited by the Portland navy recruiting station to stimulate naval enlistment. "Word has been received." savs a letter to Postmaster Reavis, "that Ar thur C. Lofts, Hood River, Or., has been advanced in rating from machin ist mate, 1st class, to chief machinist mate. This shows the possibility for young men who may desire to enter the navy. "The advancement of this man is an illustration of an every day occurrence among the men who have gone into the navy and applied themselves, as our navy of today requires high skill in 55 different trades," and ia operating its own schools to teach each man to be come an expert in his own line." yj J 1 ly Never have we had as complete an assortment as now.
