Olin to Head
Fund Drive
Nelson Gives
404 Signed Here
Appeal for Gardens In Registration
Launched under the endorsement
of Governor Charles A. Sprague and
opening on Child Health day as
nationally proclaimed by President
Roosevelt, the state-wide fund-rais­
ing drive of the Boys’ and Girls
Aid society of Oregon begins May
1.
In Vernonia, F. R. Olin has ac­
cepted chairmanship of the arive.
Other county chairmen are Mrs. R.
A. Dorris of Scappoose and George
G. Van Natta of St. Helens.
Governor Sprague, wishing the
organization success in the lorth-
coming drive, has issued the follow­
ing statement:
“There is no stronger or more
universal' appeal than that found
in little children. In launching a
state-wide campaign on May 1 to
raise funds, the Boys’ and Girls’
Aid society can seek assistance from
the public on the soundest basis
possible.
“The society’s record of service
in the care and placing of children
is well known and of long standing.
Now it faces increased demands be­
cause of rising costs in living, de­
mands which I know the public
will help to meet through generous
donations.”
“A farm garden on every farm
is needed this year and for the
duration to add to the nation’s food
supply of necessary vegetables,”
states George A. Nelson, Columbia
county agricultural agent. Since
the armed forces will require large
parts of the commercial or < ried
and canned packs of vegetables
oif which the Allies will receive a
large amount, and since the food
will be higher in price, it is ex­
pected, families raising their >wn
vegetables can help the war effort
for food production. Transportation
congestion will be relieved to the
extent that 50 million farmers will
produce their own vegetables right
where they will be used.
Farms on which vegetable gar­
dens have not been grown in recent
years may now be put into use for
the food production. Nelson slates,
“It is not too late to plan and
plant a vegetable garden”.

A total of 404 men between the
ages of 45 and 65 were signed in
the selective service registration
here Monday, a figure considerably
larger than the registration of Feb­
ruary 16th when 269 signatures
were taken. At Camp McGregor,
49 men in the 45-65 age bracket
were signed, a figure only slightly
larger than that in February when
62 were signed.
R. A. Braniblett, who was in
charge of the registration at the 1.
W. A. hall, expressed his apprecia­
tion for the services of those
people who assisted in conducting
the signing of the men.

own life, shooting herself through

Overwork at her studies at Ore­

caused a nervous condition which
might have been the cause of the
suicide, it was stated by authorit­
ies.
Funeral services were held at
Astoria Tuesday.
