ORANQ FEARED THE CAMERA I Photognph.r'. Prsssne of Mind i Probably 8v.d Him From DtMth or Ftarrui injury. Ai nil. orangoutangs, the fiercest i of the a pel, are caught young and tamed before they are shipped to Eu rope and the United States. On. of these animals that arrived In London came with the best of characters, lie was considered very tame, steady going creature, and an expert was en grafted to photograph hlin. The man entered th. orang'a cage as he bad entered many others. He had not exposed many plates before ho saw that the animal was Intent ou mischief. He was a very powerful beast, and the man would have stood no chance at all If the orang had at tacked him. The man's only chance was to use the camera as a weupon. Makln a sign to the keeper to keep silent, the photographer pointed his hand camera at the orang and with slow and steady step approached htm. The keeper was outside the door ready to open H; but neither of them uttered a sound. The photographer was relieved to see the ornng gradually retreat and at the same time to be able to rise from the crouched and menacing position he hnd taken. Once the creature was on the move the man knew he had a chance. He succeeded In working the orang around to the corner furthest from the door, which the keeper had silently and slowly opened. Still point ing his camera at tho beast the man very slowly backed out of the cage, the door was slammed to and be was safe. COMPLETE WORK OF TODAY Unfinished Tasks Simply Mean That On. Has Placed a Mortgage en Hla Tomorrow. Leave today's work undone and yon mortcnge tomorrow. And tomorrow may bring the big opportunity you have been looking fnr so long. Try to keep tomorrow for yourself. Try to keep It free. Don't load It up with work that should be done when you leave your desk tonight. Tou never know what It may bring. You never know what chances there may be tomorrow If you have It clear to show somebody who can pay a big salary what you enn do. Your days are Important, every one of them. Each has Its own work that must be done. Start every day with a clean sheet. Say: "This Is the work that Is to be done today that must be done to day." Then do that work, and do not leave any of It hanging over Into the next dtiy. Once fnll behind In your work and your tomorrow will soon be mortgaged for a long way ahead. That means wage slavery. It means lack of a chance to seize opportunity or to make opportunity. Look forward to your tomorrows ns days of achievement days In which to plan and do new tasks not to fin ish old ones. i'ou will be glad to see thera then. You will be glad of the fresh eight hours that can be employed In some thing that Is valuable and Interesting. John Itlnke, In Chicago Dally News. Burro Saw the Point One who knows says that some peo ple claim that animals can't reason, hut If they were around burros awhile like he was when he run a burro train up In Colorado they'd change their minds. One of the burros fell down In crossing a stream and he was loaded with sugar, and It took nbout fifteen minutes to get him on his feet nnd his load didn't weigh more than half as mwh when they started out again. For months afterward that critter nlwoys contrived to fall down when crossing a stream of water. It didn't lighten his load any, for the driver never trusted him with sugar any more, but he still had hopes until they happened to load him with sponges one day. That cured him. L09 Angeles Times. Arab Puts Comfort First The beautiful villus flint retnnln In Algeria arc Moorish villas, for the Arab does not care for things artistic and comfortable that other races of the earth demand. If he were given a house he would first remove the doors ond burn them; ho would next drive a honk Into the facade to hitch hla mule to, and then he would abandon the chlmney-plnce Inside the house and build his fire In the middle of the room, drilling all the --walls with smoke. Ills personal Ideas of comfort come first. The Algerians are not like the French. They are different In man ners, customs, hnhlts and morals, says Charles Dlvln In the Century. Even the Arab remarks It. slid calls all peo ple who come from France "Parisian (tomans." Telephone Financing Our business In Oregon la financially unsatisfactory. Our revenues munt bo Increased. Present service cannot be maintained at a desired stundard, nor cau our yatem be expanded to meet new requirements unless new cupltul U secured. Many people may not understand that In the operation of a public utility Its extensions and permanent Improvements are not provided for In the rales for service charged, but they are paid for by "neiw" money money Invented In the business by those who have surplus funds. The large sums necessary must come from the people who buy stocks and bonds and who have confidence In the soundness, maintenance and earning power of tho Investment behind their securities. For this money tho market rato of Interest must be pold high at the present time when nations, cities and corporations of unquestioned flnanclul responsibility are seeking capital. Tho L'ultcd States is paying 6'i for money. Sound trust mort gages are offered at Tt. Good Industrial stocks nt 8';', and higher. The people of the State of Oregon Inst -month by a vole of 5 to 1 defeated a proposition to limit Interest In this Btute to 4 and 6i. They realized that nothing but business disaster and commercial paralysis would follow the adoption of such a measure. Who would loan money in Oregon at i', and b when other InvestMonts, Just as Bound, were avallublu at 6Vi, 7vi. 8 and higher? The property of this company In the State of Oregon today Is not earning 1 upon each dollar invested. With such a showing on present Investment, how can we" expect additional investment? We have asked the Public Service Commission to consider our situation. Tho facts and figures will be placed before this official body with their own special faclll tlea for Investigation and verification. We are asking simply to be placed in a position where we can give good servlco. iiiukb extensions, provioe a proper reserve, pay Interest ou our obligations and reasonable return to the owners of our property. The Pacific Telephone and Telegraph Company a h Southern Pacific To Show Movies Nov.l Idea of Aviation, A certain Francis lBtin, some two centuries ago. worked out to his own satisfaction that a vessel, with Its air suimly exhausted would sustain Itself suspended In Ihe atmosphere. He pro duced such a vessel but there Is no ev. Idence to show that his scheme was ever attempted as sn nlr-machtne. Now women and children can fly through Ihe air, and that so simply that the children make pictures of their flight, and think no more of tt than they do of going by train, or by The Southern Pacific this month joins the ranks of the motion picture producers, and will present for the consideration of its employees seven thousand feet of Tijm depicting gra phically the Story of Oil. It took five monthB to complete this picture, which In seven reels presents, from production to con sumption, the Inside story of "Li quid Gold." There Is a message to be learned by all who see this film. The fuel oil industry faces a crisis; those who depend upon the Industry must take measures If they would stave off disaster. The picture shows what these measures are. Consumption of fue oil now ex ceeds production by 30,000 barrels a day. Reserve stocks in California are being depleted by 1,000,000 bar- rela a month. At the end of this year approximately ten million ve hicle's will be using by-products of crude oil for fuel. The Southern Pacific is now burning 60,000,000 gallons per month, or about 16 per cent of al oil produced In Califor nia and produdtfon Is falling. Salvation lies In conservation. Watch for the pictures; they will be show at all terminals and at princi pal points on the system. given by Ihe secretary, followed by the Invocation by ltev. Warrington. Brother -Jus. Sawyers delivered the eulogy which was ono of the best neard In many years. The Elks' or chestra played a beautiful selection and Lymon Spencer, accompanied on the piano by Mrs. C. S. Helpline, rendered two baritone solos. Mr. Speneer hns a wonderful voire and his efforts were greatjy appreciated, rirother O. P. Coshow delivered the memorial addresB which was most excellent and served as a wonderful lesson to those heard him. Memorial Services Very Impressive The memorial services of the, R. P. O.
