How Automobiles Are Made
On Thursday December 7, 2:30 o'clock, (afternoon only)
The Ftudebaker Corporation, of Detroit, Michigan, makers of the Celebrated
E. M. F. "30" aud Flanders "20" Automobiles, will give a free exhibition of how
Automobiles are made in one of the Greatest Automobile Plants in the entire
world. .
The exhibit consists of over 6000 feet of moving picture films, covering
almost the entire process of the niacufp.ctuic of Automobiles, from the raw pig
iron to the finished product.
A complete lecture accompanies the films and explains the big automatic
machines as they appear on the screen.
These Films are educational and are fully as interesting as any pictures you have
ever seen. It takes almost two hours to run the entire 6000 feet, so come early and
get a good seat.

At the city council meeting Monday
night. Dr. tieo. E. Ilouck'a ordinance,
aimed ostensibly at the suppression
of the neur-beer traffic in Koseburg,
was defeuted by a vote of 7 to 4.
Immediately afterwards, the council,
by iinanlnious vote, passed Judge J.
C. Fullerton's resolution, prohibiting
the Issuance of neur-beer licenses to
persons convicted within the past
year of violating the local option law.
The vote on Dr. llouck's ordinance
was bb follows: .
AyeB Ilouck, Strong, Mullen and
Clark.
Noes Krohn, Zurchor, Moore,
Wright, aether, Nachter and Fuller
ton. Absent Chapman.
At present there are outstanding
seven near-beer licenses, all expiring

of those licenses are affected by the
Fullerton resolution. The seventh

the purpose of the ordinance was "to
make lioseburg a dry town." On
.Monday night he spoke altogether
differently at the sturt. "Thla

When in Doubt
Make it Jewelry

We art right in the thick of it, so have little time to write
ads. You people are busy, too. picking and choosing,
and have no time to read.
But k?ep remembering how jewelry fits in with the season.
When in doubt make it jewelry, it's a good rule to go by.
AnotiVr good rule is to give only that jewelry which is
known to be of the highest possible quality.
To besure of this-COME HERE.
Take all the time you wish to look then buy only when
you are convinced that what we show you represents
the most advanced thought in designing and construe
