A fragmentary notice from a Portland Oregon news stand lists subscription options including annual, quarterly, and monthly rates. It references delivery by mail and carrier, with various durations and prices implied by the readable OCR text. The exact figures are unclear due to imperfect text.
A fragmentary verse extols helping others with a shoulder touch and warm support. It envisions hope and guidance as a beacon, suggesting that gentle aid lifts the weak and helps them pursue a brighter path. The piece emphasizes human love and compassion guiding toward an elevated destination.
Col. Ledwidge has lived in Mexico 30 years and denounces Huerta as a murderer who lacked popular consent. He supports Carranza and Wilson against foreign-backed tyranny, portraying Mexican warfare as a struggle for basic human rights and aligning with Hughes criticisms of Wilson policy.
The speaker denounces grabbers and interventionists urging men charged with plotting a raid on Columbus to trigger intervention. He condemns the plan as a massacre of Americans to prompt war. If Ledwidge is truthful, Wilson would face foes and accept the Mexican issue as campaign focus while Hughes shifts to pork and patronage.
A reflective essay argues that men rarely free themselves from conventional dress in extreme heat. It notes coatless outings only occur briefly amid disdain and social constraints. The piece predicts a reformer may spark a lasting movement to restore common sense in male attire.
A Washington man plans a sawmill on the Siuslaw only if Wilson loses. Western Oregon's lumber boom, aided by Southern Pacific freight demand, makes such politics seem foolish. The public service commission reports car shortages, while shippers seek over 100 extra freight cars.
Officials note eastern Oregon teachers earn about $20 per month more than Willamette valley counties yet those counties train far more graduates.

The piece urges state action to provide eastern Oregon with normal schools and highlights other local topics including Round-Up finances and wheat market sentiment.
Mr Hughes takes the floor in Oregon today addressing lawmakers on an unspecified measure. The scene centers on his remarks and potential implications for the session.

Applicants must be 17 to 22 years old, and height requirements apply based on age.
Reported lack of word from Deutschland after a Virginia des fours engagement leaves ten officials cautious. The winded advices indicate a submarine course and possible blockader actions. Officials note no confirmation of wireless contact or signals from the German side.
Berlin reports indicate Allied air forces dropped incendiaries aimed at German fields to ignite the harvest. Officials say crops survive better than feared, with potatoes and fodder prospects strong and war stockpiles easing shortages.

Hood River, Ore. Aug. 18. W S Kirby, who keeps over 1090 sheep on logged land in the upper Hood River valley, says small flocks are more profitable than cattle or hogs. He notes orders from farmers and orchardists for small bands and suggests diversifying stock. Some strawberry growers use sheep to eat off waste berries and weeds. Also included is a brief note on Morrison formation reptiles in southern Colorado with bones abundant in clay remnant, mentioning Brontosaurus and Stegosaurus as examples.
The article notes more than 6,900,000 men are confined in prison camps abroad and argues that this large confinement, among other factors, shows the enemy’s situation is becoming clearer to the world since the war began.
