It was naturally to be expected that the Odell people woulj protest the toll, hut merchants arid tiusinea interests of Hood Kiver and orchard its of other sections have expressed a -eritimeiit favorahle to the protest. No one, who has taken the time to gain a comprehensive understanding of the public utility's urgent need for additional revenue, has been heard to raise a complaint against an increase in rates, but the means of graining ad ditional funds by the toll charge is fairly universally condemned. The toll charge is unfair to Ode 1 1 patrons. The exchange established there was not primarily for their bene fit but as a convenience to the com pany. Odell residents should not be placed on a toll basis when many of their neighbors of other orchard dis tricts, whose service is through the city exchange, live further from the district's chief trading point thai; they. The toll charge is indirectly a disad vantage to merchants of Hood River. Odell residents have been accustomed to conduct much shopping by telephone. The toll chartre will limit this to abso lute necessities. It was argued, when the rate was applied fur, that the toll charge would tend to eliminate all but necessary calls and thus prevent an ovet loading of trunk lines between Hood River and Odell. Hut much of the conversation on the rural lines takes place among those on party lines and among the residents of the district themselves. The toll rate will not apply in such in stance. Nor is the principle of the argument fair to Odell patrons. The subscribers of this section phould have a right to use the telephone system as freely as thnse of other sections of the valley. We will admit of the necessity of additional revenue, but it should be raised by a more eiiuable apportioning of the increased charge for service. We would suggest, as a means not necessarily for limiting calls, but to limit the time consumed, that the live minute rule be put into effect. It is indeed rare that a telephone consversa tion cannot be ended in five minutes. This rule should be applied, not only to the Odell lines, but on all the system. Visiting ( ver the telephone is a greater nuisance in the country than in the city, the city having more phones de voted exclusively to business purposes, but does exist in tow n. Long, visiting conversations over the telephone should be prohibited. Those indulging in such practice should really be classed with the citizen who leaves his garden hose running of u summer's night. It is generally desired that the toll charge be eliminated. Let's see a con ference between repesentatives of all (dasses of subscribers. Let this con ference determine on some flat rate, equitable alike to the Odell subscribers and the company. Then let an appeal, one representative of all Hood River, go forward to the I'ublic Service Com mission. We believe that early action toward eliminating the toll charge will be taken. Ol'R CHRISTMAS Hood River should have a happy Christmas todav, because the little city of the Apple Valley has many children. While the yuletide season, for lit) cen turies has been a time for the renewal of the spirit of good will toward our fellows, it is more particularly a day devoted to making glad the hearts of little children. There is something sublime in the Christmas morning faith of the little tot in a real Santa Clans, who has loaded down an evergreen tree or filled to overflowing a stocking. And to glimpse the faith of babes makes to glow the gentle but deep-burning hu man tires in hearts of elders. It seems almost profane to compare Christmas w ith a eiivus, and yet Christmas day and circus day are somewhat alike. How much iimre joyful all of us are if we participate in the activites of both in the company of kiddies. From a community standpoint we of Hood River should celebrate today in happiness. In the main we. have real ized our visions and wishes of the New Year of 1010. We have been busy, perhaps busier than ever before in'our history. We are enjoying the rest in the lull following apple harvest. We have been prosperous. We look to the future with a merited optimism anil confidence, Christinas a year ago w as a great occasion of reunion, following the re turn from army and navy of some son or sons, for many families. Still other parents remained anxious. Today ptae tiddly all of the boys are back. Hap piness will be the lot of all families. The spirit of "I'eace on Larth, Good Will Towad Men," will pervade all Hood River todav. Merrv Christmas! SIIsE'ALK LEGISLATION NEEDED j Hk1 River needs a criminal ordin- ' an ! to erforee the cleaning of side uV.r.s. loo many of the residents, wa.t for a Chinook wind to come along and blow its breath. We wonder that ' merchants have not petitioned the' council to enforce rulings on clearing ( ii.e s dewalks the past week. The d;s- j dru.eful condition of the walks has j kept many women shoppers at home. If the eitv is not going to have an ordinance that will bring cleared streets, it should hire enough men to do the work and charge the expense to the general tax fund. The streets should be cleared. Nor. resident prop erty owners are the worst offenders, out they are by no means alone. A harbinger of spring, the Glacier has just received from Representative -Sinr.ott a couple of mail pouches filled with flower and vegetable seeds. Mr. Sinnott had the arrival of the seeds timed just right. Ten days ago it looked as though planting time never would arrive. The seeds are for gen eral distribution. Anyone may have ;ia kages of the seeds by calling at the Glacier otlice. No children will receive seeds without written orders from par ents. This measure is taken to prevent youngsters from wasting the allotment. As some will remember, children re quested beans last year for use in their -ling shots. They made fine ammuni tion. Seeds will be sent on request by iiottal card. No distribution, however, will be made by request over tele phone. We approve the announcement of the Anti-Asiatic Association, not to take'.a bill before the legislature, called for special session in January by Governor Ulcott. The five measures designated are sufficient to keep the solons busy the entire extraordinary session. If you know of any little shavers whose family is in poor circumstances, get busy yourself and pass the word around. Do not let Christmas pass with any unhappy little boy or girl in Hood River. We wish the members of the Knights of l'ythias band a Merry Christmas. A'e hope the blowers and drummers are continuing to learn, and that Hood River will soon be able to listen to their initial concert. Cleopatra dissolved pearls in vinegar, when she wished to be real extrava gant in her dining. In these days and times she could have set herself above he general herd by serving turkey. Spokane barbers are striking for nigher wages. Their demands, it is said, will mean higher priced shaves and hair cuts. Will the man operating on himself be a scab? Too many of the citizens of Hood River have awaited the coming of a chinook to relieve sidewalks of their obstruction of slush. In plain English, our sidewalks have beeu a disgrace. O.F.C. COMMITTEES ARE APPOINTED In the December issue of the Bulle tin, announcement is made of appoint ments of chairmen of standing com mittccs. The Bulletin follows: My dear Club worker, Greetings, and my best wishes to each member of your club for the coming Christmas season. This it to be a glad season for us all, yet we must he reminded i hat the people of the United States today are facing problems that should tie met with clear thinking, cool deter mination and great courage. The women of the nation have been called upon to help in this time of stress and l hey are rising to the occasion and giv ing aid in many ways. They must continue this unselfish work until the present period of unrest has passed, and the disturbed social life has re gained its normal calmness. One factor that will help to stablize this restlessness is the awakening of community consciousness and this can be brought about by a group of inter ested people. As the nation is com posed of people banded together in communities, improvement in these small units will add strength to the whole structure. Close at hand in every community are problems that need attention. These fields of study have limitless possibilities within the borders of each community. The home job is a big one, and, with a new sense of values, its many aspects which were never before seen as they are now. Instead of being a nation of novel readers as were the people of yester day, they today crave more nourishing food for their mental diet. Instead of reading romances, they are concerned about education, public health, child welfare and other vital questions. Through earnest study and deep think ing they are trying to accomplish con servation of life, of happiness, of civil and mitionnl integrity. Profiting by the experience of the past they should face the new problems with confidence, intelligence and self control, firm in the hope that, moved by the spirit of broad altruism and un failing loyalty, they shall help to bal ance the unrest which is now possess ing the world. As an independent body of thoughtful workers, the Oregon Fed eration of Women's (Tubs can exert an influence on the communities of the state which will add strength to the nation. Community service is the home job and it is a good place tp start. Ida B. Callahan, President, Following are the newly appointed chairmen of standing committees for the State Federation.

Red Cross Christmas Seals Great interest is being manifested in this year's sale of these little messen gers of health and the sale in nearly every county in the state is being car ried on by the Federated clubs. This is most gratifying as it puts Oregon on a par with many other states where this splendid work is sponsored by the Federation of Women's Clubs. See that your club returns are one hundred per cent for this needed cause. Much as the Christmas seal has done for Oregon in the past, it can do more in the future. Much of its power in the past has been due to the support given it by women's clubs and by in dividual club women who have had the vision to see in it a mighty democratic agencv for the promotion of life's greatest asset, health. Much of its power in the future will be due to these same women of vision, women who recognize the danger which lies in the apathy of the post-war reaction and who have the strength of purpose to carry on the reconstruction work which shall make the war worth the price that has been paid for it. Club women, get back of the Red Cross Christmas Seal. Buy and get others to buy. f LIB REPORTS Amity Study Club Our club continued our regular meet ings during the war activities and our members responded to every call for the work. Helgian Bottles receipts, $15.00; Scholarship loan fund, $1.00. We have tried to keep in touch with the State Federation work and have started our work for the new year with enthusi asm. We have raised for the Louise Home the sum of $15; also $20 for Albertine Kerr Nursery and have col lected 35 quarts of fruit, one sack of potatoes and apples to be sent soon. Civic Club of Pendleton To the Officers and Members of the Oregon State Federation of Women's Clubs, the Civic Club of Pendleton re ports as follows : In the early club year no club work was done because of war conditions followed by the flu. In March a vigor ous anti fly campaign and other sani tary measures were started with the press, the schools, the city council and every other possible agency enlisted in the work, which brought very satis factory results. The committee wom en were both diligent and faithful, and the work was continued throughout the season. In May the club assisted the county demonstration agent in giving a successful dairymen's luncheon. Flowers were planted in the park, and in order to encourage the growth of flowers and more interest in beauti fying homes, a rose show was held June 4th, at which time nearly $350 in cash and merchandise were distributed by our business men for prizes. The League of Nations was unani mously endorsed and the secretary in structed to so notify our congressmen. Fifty dollars were used in fountain repair work. Madam Francesca Zarad, a French soprano singer of Chicago Grand Opera Company, was recently presented by the Civic Club. The concert was a success from every standpoint, artisti cally, musically and financially, $125 having been cleared by the club. This amount, with the addition of $25, has been given to the Umatilla county library for the purchase of current magazines for the coming year. Respectfully submitted. Mrs. E. T. Wade, President. Ladies' Annex of Prineville The Ladies' Annex, of Prineville, devoted most of their time to Red Cross work last year, as our Red Cross work was very heavy. We also assist ed in all war drives. Our activities along lines pertaining to club work were not great, but this year we are planning our work more extensively, especially along the lines of civic im provement. The ladies have taken up the matter of a public library, j er-' ma: ent public camping ground, rest i lOOiiis, etc. j luring our Interstate fuir our club; ope -.ed two public rest rocms and fur-1 listed a nursery in connection with. ttie;n. e nave teen instrumental in sec iring $50 for the U. of O. Woman's Uu.lding fund. Our Lyceum course for this winter is also to be given um er the auspices of the Ladies' An nex. Respectfully submitted, Mrs. Robert W. Douglas, President. Tuesday Afternoon Club The Tuesday Afternoon Club of I'or tland, which is stictly a study club, will celebrate its twentieth anniver sary the week of November 18, 113. The past year's record is one in w hich -acrifice and strained effort play their art; but the recital of the club's .ict.vities gives an inadequate sugges tion of the varied directions in which he energies of the individual members vere otherwise expended during the )Ui-y months. In October, 191S, at its first meeting if the year, the club purchased a Lib--rty Bond, which was soon afterward ;old at its face value and the money ihus received divided equally between he Armenian relief and the Tubercu losis fund. The club at this time also 'esolved itself into a Red Cross unit. .x through the yiar the members met at 10 a. m. each Tuesday for Red Cross ivurk, but devoted the hours between 2 and 4 p. m. to the regular calendar work, by this plan and by intensified effort satisfactorily completing, de spite the influenza ban of five weeks, the regular study which had been out lined for the year. Dining the years 1!i17-1S respectively the club had studied the "Backgrounds to the Romantic Movement in Litera ture" and "The Romantic Movement." The reactions to that movement, which resolved themselves into the varying hales of later Nineteenth Century Realism, quite logically, became the subject of the past year's study. I'nder the leadership of Mrs. E. J. Hieeht, who will take office on Octo ber 8, 191t, we will take up the study of our own country, seeking to discover for ourselves in the records of our men of thought and of actionj the signifi cance of that thing which is called the Spirit of America. Respectfully submitted, Jennie A. Marshall, President. Newbcrg Civic Improvement Club The Civic Improvement Club of Newberg at the close of war activities took up their civic work by giving a benefit picture show for our newly organized band, then a reception and social evening for our Boy Scouts. In conjunction with the Wednesday club a social was given for the benefit of the Scholarship Loan fund. Our club has donated to the Woman's Building at Eugene. A reception was given in honor of Edith Knight Hill, our club being ably assisted by the Wednesday club and vice versa. During the Motor Boat Regatta we served hot meals for the benefit of our own treasury. We have a committee working with a Commercial club committee for the pim hase of a new park site and re poils are most favorable. We have taken an active interest in the i ursery drive. Plans for a Hallowe'en frolic are being made by a social committee. We belong to the Yamhill County Federa tion and were most enjoyably enter tained by the McMinnville club June 7. We feel that we receive much benefit from our County Federation. Respectfully submitted, Jennie D. Miller, President. The Dalles Sorosis Club Keeping in mind the admonition of our State President, "nothing but ser vice which is our unbounded duty to ward our country," we worked faith fully toward that end. A few mem bers of Sorosis Club belonged to the home service department of the Red Cross and discreetly distributed funds to deserving soldiers and their needy families, who applied. Paid all club dues and other obligation as follows : Traveling fund for I'resident; $5 for literature for soldiers in hospitals; $t2.25 f'r Woman's Building at U. of O. ; Scholarship Loan fund, $11.25. Heartily sanctioned the Malheur Lake Bird bill and wrote our repre sentative at Salem to that effect. Worked in all Red Cross and other patriotic drives, and succeeded in al most permanently bringing about the cure of a crippled child of our com munity. Displayed the American Flag at all meetings and increased our membership very materially in spite of the fact that our women the past two years have been engrossed in war work. Georgianna Curtiss, President. Corvallis Woman's Club Patriotic and humanitarian are the two words descriptive of the work per formed by the Corvallis Woman's Club the past year. The club has bought bonds and many of its members have assisted in the Liberty Loan drives We knitted, sewed and made bandages as long as there was demand, vieing with one another in accomplishing the most possible. When the Spanish influenza came our clubhouse was placed at the disposal of the War Department and became a prophylactic station. All who would -hundreds of our citizens, in fact re ceived free examination and treatment insuring control of the disaese and ! probably saving many lives. Because I of these measures Corvallis and the col'ege suffers! very few f.italities. In . ooperation with others oi.r metn- en prepared proper food and hot meals for the sick, often supplying a hole families. Committees collected clothing for ! the tlelgians and more recently tor the j Xrmer.iar.a. We are now asMSting in a'sir.g funds for the Fireproof Nur rv. We have undertaken the pur chase of suitable lots to be presented u our city for a public library site. The earnestness and zeal with which this enterprise is undertaken assures .n advance its success. So many and varied have been our duties that typical club study has been neglected. We are now organizing -eetions for studv and will cover a wide range of subjects during the com ing winter. Resoectfullv submitted, Mary T. Skelton, President. GIVE W. S. S. FOR CHRISTMAS IS U A APPEAL Governor Calkins Urges Gov ernment Securities for Pres ents Instead of Luxuries Governor John V. Calkins of th Sail Francisco Federal Reserve Rank has wrltteu a letter to all banks aud trust companies In the Twelfth Fed eral Reerv District urging them to promote, wherever possible, the sale jf War Savings Stamps and Treasury avinijs Certificates for Christmas presents this year. Th increased demand for these liovarniiifuf securities, the Treasury 3. nines Certificates being similar to War Savings Stamps in drnoai. nations of $100 and $1000. ts apparent from the fact that the Federal Reserve Hank supplied $0.20'. worth of Treasury Savings Certificates to eigh teen bauks In the district on Noveni tier 20, which is tht? largest amount -old in one day since the clos of the war. On the face of thw dernaDd of l.ese eighteen banks and the in reased call for th securities from ill postoffices throughout the Tweifili ;''deral Reserve District. It would eiu that the Cove rnnieiit's holiday ilofc&n, "Give a War Savings Stamp or a Treasury Savini;s Certificate for Christ mas," Is helm followed out. Hid the Ciovernmiit is hoping thai by ;iv!iia War Saving Stumps and Treasury Savings Cei tiflcates for Christmas parts the district will close ly approximate Its War Savings quota i'or the year. A portion of (lovernor Calkins' let- er follows; "The Christmas holidays are ut most upon us. Kverythlng points to ;i tremendous outlay of money in the purchase of holiday gifin, the greater portion of which 1 think 1 am safe in aylng will be luxuries. The present situation demands not that mine money be spent in the purchase of luxuries, but that we curtail as much as possible, with the consequent bene filial tout rait ion of credit. "Therefore, I appeal to you as a fellow banker to do everythiug within our power to stimulate the purchase mil giving of War Savings Stamps nil Treasmy Savings Certificates as .'hristmas presents in place of the us lal needless and expensive gifts. It seems to nie that the responsibility of ieading men's minds along the ways of thrift and simple living rests to a ureat extent upon t he bankers of the country anil in asking you to push the sales of Treasury i,ecuritl?s during the, Christmas holidays, 1 am asking you only to lake aihantuge of an op portunity to meet this responsibility." In addition, Christmas posters car rying an appeal to give War Savings Stamps and Treasury Savings Certifi cates for Christmas presents will be distributed throughout the Twelfth Federal Reserve District, and all banks have beeu asked to Include a similar appeal In their advertising.

The part railroads liave played in the develop ment of the United States is heyoud measure. American railroads have achieved hi;;h stand ards of pulilie service by far-sighted and courte ous investment of capital, and by the constant striving of managers and men for rewards for work well dotie. We have the best railroads in the world we must continue to have the best. Hut they must grow. To the $-20,0lKU)O0,00) now invested in our railroads, there will have to be added in the next few years, to keep pace with the nation's business, billions more for additional tracks, stations and terminals, cars atid engines, electric power houses and trains, automatic signals, safety devices, the elimination of grade crossings and for recon struction and engineering economies that will re duce the cost of transportation. To attract to the railroads in the future the in vestment funds of many thrifty citizens, the direct ing genius of the most capable builders and man agers, and the skill and loyalty of the best work men in competition with other industries bid ding for capital, managers and men the railroad industry must hold out fair rewards to capital, to managers and to the men.
