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.

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

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.

Nov.l Idea of Aviation,
A certain Francis lBtin, some two

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

joins the ranks of the motion picture
producers, and will present for the
consideration of its employees seven
thousand feet of Tijm depicting gra

It took five monthB to complete
this picture, which In seven reels

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-

year approximately ten million ve

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
