MOTOR. CAR.
The car's steady growth in good opinion proves how
readily the public appreciates real value.
The kind of people who buy Dodge Brothers cars are
seldom concerned with any question of price.
They always think first of its high quality and stability.
The record of its economy and comparative . freedom
from repair costs comes as a pleasant afterthought.
It will pay you to visit us ami examine this car.
r The gasoline consumption is tfhusually low.
" The tire mileage is unusually high.

100,000 TO REPLACE
TIE NATIONAL GUARD
. The war department has com
pleted plans for the formation of a
volunteer force of approximately
100, jOO to replace the national
guard in this country. A complete
outline of the proposition as drafted
by Brigadier General Jesse M. Carter
and approved by Secretary Baker will
be made public within a few days and
recruiting will be put under way.
The plans call for the recruiting
of the force, which will be to this
country what a home defense league
is to Great) (Britain, by volunteer
methods. All physically fit men be
tween the ages of 18 and 21 and 31
and 45 will be eligible No man sub
joct to the draft is permitted to en
list in the new force.
The force is to be a mobile federal
institution, subject to duty any
where within the boundaries o the
United States, but not outside. It
will guard military works, bridges
docks, aqueducts and other impor
tant points, relieving national guard
and regular army forces now on
gaged in that work.
The Ashland home guards have' of
fered themselves to the state militia,
and indications point to their being
mustered in soon.
Uf QUA RIVER '
GOES UP 14 FEET
The continued heavy rains for the
past few days has brought the North
Umpqua river up several feet and as
a consequence the plant of the water
and light company has experienced
some trouble in operating, though
their service has been fully up to
the standard, regardless of the sud
den rise of the river. Sunday night
the river reached 14 feet above low
water mark and! much drift and si. .all
debris was being carried down
stream. This necessitates the em
ployment of a number of men who
were kept on duty night and day on
the grate bars at the intake to the
big turbine that furnishes power for
operating the plant, clearing the drift
away to avoid clogging the machin
ery of the power plant.
H. E. Burchfield, manager of the
plant, informed The News yesterday
that the river had reached a higher
stage the past few days than for the
last five years. Men are constantly
on hand at the plant clearing away
the drift, and while the river is re
ceding some, there is still consider
able difficulty In keeping the debris
away from the intake to avoidl Inter
fering with the water power which
drives the big plant.
