TAX COLLECTION IS BEGUN To Avoid Waiting In Line Taxpayers Should Mail Descriptions. Deputy Sheriff Martin. In charge of the tax department of Sheriff Stevens' office, began the collection of county taxes yesterday morning. If paid before March IB taxpayers will receive a 3 per cent discount. There are about 10,000 more names on the real property tax roll this year than last, and about 5000 more on the personal property roll. Deputy Martin urges taxpayers not to overlook their personal tax In paying the tax on real estate, as it may otherwise go de linquent with a 10 per cent or 12 per cent penalty. The tax collectors are experiencing some difficulty because people telephone in asking what the amount of their tax: is, and giving long lists of property. This consumes considerable time and opens the way for mistakes, as figures over the telephone are not always ac curately heard. Deputy Sheriff Martin urges that property owners mail descrip tions of their property to him at the Courthouse, which will save time waiting in line for tax statements. Mr. Martin assures taxpayers that their letters will receive prompt- responses. FINES SHOW FALLING OFF, Totals for January but Half That for December. The monthly report of the Municipal Court, prepared yesterday by Clerk N. D. Beutgen, shows that the month of January was marked by small receipts In tines and other penalties. Fines, for feitures and costs for the month were only $1234, which Is only about half what they were for the month previous. The police statistics show that 1338 arrests were made In January, of which 497 were for drunkenness. 87 for after hours. 45 for larceny and 255 for va gra ncy. In the detective department, under the direction of Captain Moore, the month's report shows 21 cases of bogus checks, 7 of holdup, 2 of murder, 3 of robbery and 193 of larceny. Of the latter, 84 cases were cleared up by the detective staff. Under the plain clothes system it Is shown that far better results are had than were ever before obtained In the department.

Chamber of Commerce is sending out circular letters to commer cial bodies over the country, exposing the scheme and asking: the support, which they say, rightfully belongs to them.

AIRSHIP ALSO ATTRACTS Demonstration ot Various Products Are Made and Counters Are Crowded by Housewives and Children to Taste Dainties. Thousands of people visited the sixth annual pure food show at its opening yes terday. The show is being held on the fourth floor of the Meier & Frank store, and adding to the interest was a Cur tiss airship recently purchased by Henry Wemme. The airship is In a special room set aside and called "aviation hall." The proceeds from admission to see the ship are devoted to the Mount Hood road. This fund was materially Increased by a J500 donation by Julius D. Meier. There are 50 booths In the pure food show, every one of which is busily at work demonstrating some food product or article in daily use in the household. These 60 booths were all engaged six weeks ago according to Mr. Meier who has charge of the show. Mr. Meier esti mates there were 50 applicants for booths in addition to those who secured the con cessions. Wherever possible, the pro ducers of Oregon goods or the Portland factories were favored in the assignment of places. The exhibit is to continue for one month. It is estimated that in the neighborhood of 11,000 attended the show yesterday. An orchestra played during the day and will continue to give music as long as the exhibits are continued. There were other things in addition to food stuffs exhibited. Articles for the household were in evidence, such as compressed air and vacuum cleaning devices, electrical equipment for the kitchens, cleaning powders and even some medicines, but a majority of the concessions were repre sentative of the supplies for the tables. There were enough different kinds of food to supply almost any table. Every booth had something to give away" and these were besieged by all. children who wanted something to eat irrespective of the brand, and housewives hunting for some new delicacy for their tables. There were many goodies to be had by the prospective purchaser or merely curious or hungry visitor. There were samples of rootbeer, jellies served on cookies, cookies themselves in all kinds, preserves rich looking canned goods, pie, salad used to demonstrate a mayonnaise dressing, biscuits and honey used to dem onstrate flour and biscuits and honey again used to show how good the honey was. . There were sardines and crackers served to show how good crackers could be and again the same combination to demon strate the sardines. There were lovely little sausages to demonstrate some meat companys product and doughnuts and other goodies to demonstrate lard and again doughnuts and other goodies to demonstrate something cooked without lard. Everyone kept busy sampling this and that, but the visitors by no means con find themselves to sampling as the re sults of the day showed that never before had a pure food show been productive of such large orders on the opening day of the show. FOG SETTLES OVER CITY Phenomenon Is Short-Lived Confined to West Side. and When a bank of fog so thick; 'that objects 25 feet distant were obscured from view settled over Portland at 9:30 o'clock: yesterday morning, a por tion of the population had visions of Impending disaster, and for a time the telephones to the Weather Bureau were kept busy. Within half an hour, how ever, the atmosphere cleared. Prior to the appearance of the fog the sun was bright. With a sudden ness seldom experienced on land, but often known at sea, the fog settled. It was Impossible to see 20 feet.- Automo biles, streetcars, vehicles and pedes trians stopped and for a few minutes there was little traffic on downtown streets. A peculiar feature of the fog bank of yesterday morning was that it settled only on the west side of the river. On the East Side all was sun shine. Following clear nights, fog is com mon in the valleys In the early morn ing. It is caused by radiation from the soil, which cools the lower layers of the atmosphere to below the dew point, causing condensation to take place. As the sun mounts higher and the atmos phere warms, the fog Is dispelled. In cool weather fog In ' the morning is considered a good omen. Clear days follow. DELEGATES TO BE NAMED President.

It il l . i.i.- Ji .- ,?;' v?av,v, Talks on Teeth By the REX DENTAL CO., DENTISTS. ERAT EST FUIT (I have just been duped.) Is n expression only too prevalent In dentistry. There is hardly a day that one or more patients do not come Into our offices to have work taken out of their mouths, put in by bargain-counter dentists and sometimes by supposedly high-class dentists. Most of these peo ple who have sought cheap dental work and got It, others paid good prices and got what Is known in dental parlance as junk. There is more malpractice in dentistry than any of the professions, largely because dentistry is about the most difficult of all the professions to become efficient in and requires more skill to do it right. The patients who seek something for less than Its value are as much at fault as is the unskilled dentist who sells something tor lesa than Its real value, for he has spent his money and three years of his time In a dental college trying to learn den tistry; (about one in 50 do learn). I must make a living, he says to him self. Ho opens an office, tries to suc ceed on the high-class (square deal) plan, and fails; changes his tactics either goes to work for a dental parlor or opens one and goes in for the gulli ble public on the make-believe theory fool them, he says; get the money thev won't know whether the work is good, bad or Indifferent until it's paid for; In any event the sure way to success is too slow for me. There is a sucker born every minute and I'll get my share If I give "em the right talk and he does in many cases, for there is hardly a city In this country but what you can find one or more grafters in the dental line, making oodles of money and they do it for years. There may not be a dentist in his office but that same fellow who failed as a dentist is an executive genius. If you need dental work and want the very best that is possible to be obtained, come in and let us show you samples of the work we do. Generally we can show you work in the mouth or being put in, an at all times we have patients in our offices having work done. Then we will give you a long list of bona fide patients, well known people of this city and state, for whom we have done work. All, we believe, will tell you that their work is satisfactory In every way; beautiful, comfortable, artistic and serviceable. Send for our free book. Alveolar Den tistry. Do it today.
