A garbled OCR snippet lists various delivery options and durations for Dally and carrier service. It mentions terms like one year by mall and six months by mall with unclear formatting and several stray figures. The text lacks complete names, places, or concrete actions.
A fragmentary verse celebrates red roses and English and French imagery. The text references love and national symbols, with archaic spellings and typographical errors. It evokes wartime sentiment and distant fields, ending on a note of enduring but unattainable devotion.
The campaign centers on the Wilson issue rather than concrete records. West, appointed after Harry Lane's death, has built support for his results while McNary is praised for intent but criticized for lacking proven state achievements. Voters split along Wilson lines, with West drawing pro Wilson support and McNary favored by anti Wilson factions.
War department records show support for a Kirby amendment that would exempt men under 20 from the draft. About two million such men were affected, with Pershing's forces and authorization cited in the debate. The measure sought to shield younger draftees from conscription duties.
The amendment was defeated and the manpower bill passed as the War Department requested. The law’s passage shows resolve to mobilize forces if needed, aiding morale against Germany. The McNary record is presented to contest claims of blind support for administration war measures while affirming patriotism.
Western Oregon wheat grower newspapers attack Walter Pierce as a wheat raiser. They argue against his profession and call wheat growing a discreditable line of work, a tactic seen in Umatilla county’s subsection appeals.

Janie Lewatlen and Lucy Adcock married October 16 near Centerville.
In Paris the Army rebuilds morale with Liberty campaigns. Officers clubs organize and fund pig fattening for supply, feeding pigs at hospital farms in France. When ready the quartermaster buys at 300 francs each, funds aid the rem foods for companies, and a pie dream becomes a meal.
Fragmentary OCR text mentions bad breath and a formula related to bowel issues attributed to a doctor and a Mr Edwards. The readable portions imply a historical medical discussion or case note about remedies for patients with a digestive or vascular complaint but lack clear names, dates, or outcomes.
