TOWNS GET TOGETHER IN PLAN FOR MORE BOOKS YOUNGSTERS COMPETE FOR HONORS Rivalry Between Classes and Districts to Play Important Part in Cam paign and Interest Grows Keen Wednesday, December 24, the young people of the schools of Oregon City and adjoining territory, Canemah,, Willamette, West Linn, Gladstone and Parkplace will have complete charg-3 of a tag day for a book fund for the purchase of good books for the use of the young people of the districts named, as well as for those in the rest of the county of Clackamas who are interested in good reading and the public library. The feeling that "good books are like good friends" is catching and the many- good friends of the library and the growing generation will be asked to assist the good work by the pur chase of a ten-cent tag from the mem bers of the committees when pre sented. One school has promised to sell 500 tags and as there will be an effort on the part of each school to sell the greatest number and turn into the fund the largest amount of money, the competition will be keen and the re sults beneficial to all. , Each purchaser, is asked to wear his tag to advertise the event and to prevent further solicitation. "When Oregon's girls and boys wk'e up then minds to do a thing success is sure," said' a member of the library board last night. "We are requested by the school committees to help them made the day a . success, but, while they are in charge, there is really no need of our doing anything but buy tags. The Christmas spirit will sure ly do the work." As to urging the duty of voting the press seems to be powerless, ineffeC' tive. It is easy to see why a woman thinks she has a pretty ankle.

The condition 'of the street was a great drawback to the progress of the firemen. A sewer is being laid along Seventh street and great mounds of dirt bordered both sides of the trench The mud and soft slush of the street was ankle deep in places, making it almost impossible to move the hose carts at times. More than once the carts became stuck and it required the combined strength of a number of men to move them. Save Part of Stock. With the arrival of the first on the scene the doors of the store were opened and the work of removing the goods was started. At first the cash register and the more valuable cases were taken out but, as the number of rescuers increased, the entire stock of the front part of the store, consist ing for the most part of ribbons, dress goods, notions and such articles, was removed. It is estimated that about one-third of the stock was taken from the burning building. The saved stock was piled along the north side of the ' street and taken in the stores on the north side. The curb of the side walk and the paralell ridges of dirt were covered wita cardboard boxes, many of them open and with their contents exposed to LESS MEAT IF BACK Take a glass of Salts to flush Kidneys ' if Bladder bothers you Drink lots of water. Sating meat regularly eventually pro duces kidney trouble in some form or other, says a well-known authority, be cause the uric acid in meat excites the kidneys, they become overworked; get sluggish; clog up and cause all sorts of distress, particularly backache and mis ery in the kidney region; rheumatic twin ges, severe headaches, acid stomach, con stipation, torpid liver, sleeplessness, bladder and urinary irritation. The moment your back hurts or kid neys aren't acting . right, or if bladder bothers you, get about four ounces of Jad ; Salts from : any good- pharmacy; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used - for generations to flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to normal activity; also to neutralize the acids in the urine bo it no longer irri tates, thus ending bladder disorders. - 'Jad " Salts - cannot injure,, anyone; .makes .a delightful effervescent lithia water drink which millions of men and : women take now. and then to keep the kidneys and urinary , organs, clean, thus avoiding serious kidney disease. . . . -Por.Sale, bv, Huntley Bros. -(AO.)

Although a large part of the stock was removed from the store, the fact that it was ex posed to the mud of the street and much of it was- soaked by the water, puts it in such a condition as to be unsalable. Frame Building. The building was of frame con struction and was about 75 by 120. Its value- is estimated at about $10,000 and the stock a little more than $30, 000. Both goods and building were the property of Elliott brothers. It is throught, by a member of the firm, that the total loss will be in the neighborhood of $40,000. The amount covered by insurance is not definitely known but it is probably near $15,000 on building and goods. The lower floor was occupied by El liott brother's store and a small part on the corner of Madison by Duane Ely, hardware and farm implements. This stock was damaged but little, due to the fact that the fire depart ment concentrated its work on the west side of the building. Second Story, Residence. The second story of the structure was used as the living quarters of O. W. Elliott who had the active man agement of the business. At the time of the fire neither he nor any member of his family were in these rooms. The fire broke out on tie rear of the second story, according to those who were the first to arrive on the scene. No one had been in the building since the store had closed sveral hours be fore. This, together with the fact that this is the third of a series of mid night fires within three days, has caused those who saw the blaze to think that all are of incendiary orgin. In the fire which destroyed the Mc- Roberts bakery, the strong smell of gasoline was noticable to those who first entered the burning building. In this fire, also, no one was home at the time.
