His wife and daughter came out with him for a brief visit in town. Fred Lange has the thanks of the Chronicle force for a mess of as juicy and toothsome vension as ever tickled a stomach.

Hilton, \director of the worren’s bureau | jof Northwest division of the Red Cross Notes. (Contributed) The following is an excerpt from the speech delivered at the Red Cross rooms in Lewiston American Red Cross: “Do not condemn the woman who does not work; she condemns herself. When she begins to offer excuses for not appearing at the work room, she will soon walk alone. The time may come when these women will be con- scripted. “The government is preparing for five more years of war. Even though we read of a successful British drive, it isnot safe to un. derestimate the strength of the enemy. The Red Cross must not underestimate the responsibility it faces. The organization is criticized because the demands on workers are constantly changing. So are the conditions and methods of war. Major Grayson Murphy, who is in command of the Red Cross work in France, cables daily the needs of hospitals. ‘‘And what they need and want they shall have, even if it is ruffles on their pajamas,”’ said Mrs. Hilton. “‘We are going over the top with our boys. Even as the women of France and England have sac- rificed everything for their boys, so will we give ourselves to our lads. Every woman isa soldier under orders from Major Murphy, and just as thesoldier keeps his mouth closed and obeys orders, so must the women of the Red Cross forget personal matters and petty criticism of one another.’’ gibi spacial A rare treat is in store for our theatre-goers next Wednesday night, 5th, when that most inter- esting of all moving pictures— Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea—will be shown in 9 reels at the Orpheum. The proceeds will go to the Red Cross. A. Larson, representing Larson Bros. of Spokane, who are dis- tributors for the 20-35 horse-pow- er Trundaar Tractor, spent a day or two here this week demonstra- ting one of these machines. On Wednesday a number of farmers and some of our business men saw a demonstration of the trac- tor in Mr. Tacke’s field just east of town. Although “very small. in comparison with the larger caterpillar tractors it pulls four plows with thefgreatest ease. P. H. Dye,. machinist with the Cottonwood Hardware 'Co., acted as ‘‘chauffeur’’ at this demonstra- tion. rte US, Born, to Mr. and Mrs.’ Chas. Van Osdol on Nov. 26, a daughter. Local Market Report.
