Not once in a decade has it failed to uphold and enhance its reputation for faithful per formance; ' The reason for its consistent goodness and continued betterment points directly back to the ideals of the founders.- Instead of fluctuating between an endless series of annual models, they determined to concentrate on the perfection of a single chassis.

A Oortlcan gtrt married man whoa Brat wife was the slater ot toe gin a grandmother.

Her hueband la tne oruiuw In-law of bis grandnephews ana grand-nieces. An elderly American became; the grandfather of his alx ehlldren, and hut first wife's stepfather. He dl roreed his wife and married hie morher-ln-law. The widower who married In sncreeaton seven slstere contracted' varloue relationships, says the Montreal Family Herali' and Star. Thla man started by marrying the eldest of the sisters, and subsequently wenf right down the line. Finally he led the seventh and Inst slater to the altar. A German Tillage la puzzled over the relationships resulting from the double marriage of a father and a aon. The father, a widower, mar ried the villain belle. 8he thus be came a stepmother to her husband's forty-year-old son. The son in nis turnj met the girt1? mother and mar ried her. Consequently his- father Is now his son-in-law and he himself Is his own grandfather. In the meantime, the village belle present ed her husband with a baby daugh ter. Clearly this child is slster-ln-law to ber grandmother I Swing Play Part In Hind Religiout Ritet One often finds In the near vicin ity of a Hindu temple; says a writer In an Indian paper, two high atone pillars, sometimes 90 feer hlith, with s stone crossplece, from which hang Iron chains. These swings play an important part in the vnrlous festi vals of the year, especially for the young people. The very art of swinging on this sacred structure Is pleasing to the deity of the remote, and when It Is possible to combine both pleasure. and worship, then It is not unmit ural thla form of exercise should be greatly appreciated. In certain aea sons, especially the harvest season, the swing la In great demand, and religious ceremonies are perform by' the priests of the temple. On the top bar of the awing It is not unusnnl to find a number of earthenware-chattels, which are thechome of the sacred pigeons connected with the temple. . These swings are often bullf In the middle of the street, and they not Infrequently constitute a real obstacle to traffic. But the author! rlee would certainly have great diffi culty In persuadlug the temple peo ple to agree to the removal of them. Death in Triumph - 1 Edouard Remenyl was a famous Hnnpartan violinist who made sev eral world tours and settled In New York for some years. Be died of apoplexy on the stage of the Or pheum thenter, Snn Francisco, on May 15, 181)8. This was his first ap- Unearance on the vaudeville attuce and he was enthusiastically re ceived on playing two or three classical pieces. He responded with "Old Glory," which created tremen dous applause. Then he commenced to play Dellces" "Flzzlcatl," but af ter a few measures he leaned over and-tnen fell forward on his face, dead. It is Interesting to known hat at one time the composer, Brahms, traveled with Itemenyl and acted as his accompanist. 0 Hard to Fit A city man; driving ifis automo bile nlons a lHtle-nsed country road, heard something rattle benenth his car, stopped, looked hack nnd saw a bright metal' object lylflg In the road a short distance behind. It was a ploo point, evidently lost by some farmer. It was fully half an hour before the next enr enme along, and Its or-' cnprnit, seeing ibe first mnn flat 00 bis hack under his vehicle by the roadside, stopped and asked what the.frouble was. . The city man emerged andsheld up the plovmolnt. "This blooming thing dropped off my car," he "sold, "and I've been bunting for half an hour to find out where It -belongs." Exchange. 0 a ChinettsSodetfet Chinese tongs are organizations, with an .element of secrecy, of groups of Chinese for mutual pro tection and assistance. Basically, they are of a commercial' character, the members being engaged in busi ness, ana9 they are thus rival trade associations. This rivalry occasion ally breaks out Into "met! warfare when aggressions by one tong against another, consisting of un fair commercial practices, boycotts, etc., give the rival tong cause for offense. The tongs In the United States are branches of wider organi zations, having their main headquar ters in Shanghai and Peking, China, and branches rtrlst In other nations besides the United 'States.

STOP, LOOK, LISTEN Driving your car, you see a train coming. It's a passenger train, but your are sure you can beat it across the tracks. So you take a chance. Likely aa not you , cross safely and are quite a "distance away when the train thunders past. But Thousands are killed each year at railroad crossings, afoot or In autoa. Every one of them was sure he could beat the train, ex cept In cases where they were careless snd didn't observe the '(rain coming. ) Now The average fast train passes the grade crossing in seven sec onds. Are you really so rushed for time that you can afford to take a chance on your lite to save seven seconds?

Increas ing demand for closed can among other things, la furnishing the textile Industry of the country with a big and annually growing business. The largest' user of upholstery materials Is the Ford Motor com pany and figures which have just been given out by the company not only show how the closed car popularl.y is growing, but also present an Interesting picture of the great quantity of oloth used in trimming automobllo bodies. Ford Production records disclose that In 1924 close to 40 per cent ot the company's passenger ear output waa closed cars, which is a new high record. To trim these cars It took approximately 3,680, 000 yards ot cloth, the equivalent of the entire annual output ot ten mills of twenty five looms each. Another thins;, It required the fleece of more than 875,000 sheep to furnish sufficient wool for all this cloth, and an Inter esting feature in this connection Is that within the last two years the price of wool, such as used in Ford upholstery, has more than doubled. However, manufactur ing economics effected In other departments permitted the com pany to each year lower the price or the Ford closed cars to the purchaser. Buyers for the company start with the fleece, specifying In de tail the exact kind of wool to be used. The quality most desir able was determined upon only $1595. . ifsW esUy aVdoer Oiach-BrtnithanlJ Smooth engine performance U a -quality now demanded and insisted upon by the better-claea of buyers.

COMMENT HAPHAZARD LRfilHLATIOy A measure for a divided session of the legislature should be on the ballot at the next Oregon eleo tion. The session should be divided. At the first meeting all the bills should be Introduced. Then should come the Interim, wherein legislators returned to their con stituents. Then should come the final Session when the measures were to be acted upon. X' divided session would do aw'ay with much of the logrolling, trading and clubbing which now tak place at Salem. It would give the people of the atate an opportunity to lot their represen tatives know what they wanted them to do. It would give the legislators themselves .time to read and study all bills, some thing they cannot possibly do un der present conditions. At, the late session more than 700 bills were Introduced. The average working time was ap proximately five houra dally, ex clusive ot committee bearings and other duties Incumbent upon a legislator,. In a little more tfian 40 days at five hours a day the legislature waa called upon to con sider more' than 700 bills, or '$1595. M deterioration of the motor itself,' and of all other chassis parts.

And how many people In the state of Oregon are now fully ac quainted with what transpired at Salem? How many know what bills were passea- and what they provided for? How many people know whether or not their inter vats were aided or Injured as the legislature waded through more than 700 bills In 40 short days? The people of that uUta should know what goes on at Salem. The lei.jiiuorg should know what they are passing on and how their con stituents feel about It. That can not be done under the present leg islative system. It could be done with a divided session, Including as it would a period for organisa tion and introduction ot bills, a period for consideration and con sultation with constituents, and a period for final consideration and action. Until a change is made the people of the atate will get legislation by . manipulation, Ig norance, trades and skulduggery as they get it now.
