ROSEBURG, OREGON,
NOTHfNG NEW NOWADAYS
; In thjs 4ay W.h Ptfe lhere il little that happens in the
way of inventions and discoveries that create a ripple of ex
citement. People are looking for, and expectjng, something
' extraordinary from the great minds of the country, and no.
sooner is one invention discovered and presented whei, it is
followed by apother seemingly impossible achipyempnt in
the world of science and other channels. Today, two days
after the inaugural ceremonies at Washington, D. C, the
News-Review gives to its thousands of readers photographs
of scenes attendant to that auspicious occasion, photo
graphs sent by wire another new wrinkle in the world's adT
yancement. The picture appearing on the front page of to
day's paper was "wired" from Washington to San Francisco,
; requiring only seven minutes for its transmission, and was
jipnjediately dispatched to the News-Review by mail. This
is another wonder of the age. And time js not far dis
tant when happenings in the far eastern section will be pho
tographed in the News-Review th,e sarne day the event oc
curs. Thus, great strides -are being made in this old world.
' No sooner does the radio appear than something equal, or
i more stupendous in. the way of scientific progress make itself
known to the world. ,Nq one knows what is coming next.
And nothing is a surprise any more. Something new is an
ticipated by an anxious pubjic almost daily and its desire is
being served quite regularly.' '
Jt was a picture of the dangers of modern automobile
driving, when the report of motor accidents in Connecticut
for January showed an average of 39 such accidents daily
And those occurred jn the mjddle of the winter, when there
was much less motoring in that' locality than during thp rest
of , the year. The person who goes out with an automobile,
with the multitude of cars on the road, needs a far higher
degree of caution, than was called for a few years ago. His
motto should be, "Take no chances, give the other fellow
plenty pf fpom, and let speeders have the right of way when
uey want u. '

friend Saves Friend
From Operation
For Kidney Trouble
Alvlta Restore Health
Worried for three years by
thoughts of an operation, R. U.
Krazer, 9G4 So. Grand Ave., Pasa
dena, Calif., takea advice of a
friend and regalna his health by
use of Alvlta. Here la Mr. Frazer's
"For the past three yeara I had!1 Jturlng have been ideal,
serious thought of an operation,
due to a serious case of kidney and
prostatic trouble. In talking to a
friend regarding this trouble he;
suggested I try Alvlta, assuring me I
if It did me no goo4 tt would sure-1
ly do me 110 harm, aa it was pure
ly vegetable compound. I used to:
suffer great pain, getting up four 1
or five times each night, and 1 1
want to tell you 1 am entirely re
lieved after taking one month's'
treatment of Alvlta. o you know!
It has even helped my appetite."
Alvlta Is prepared In highly con-)
cenlraleil tablet form from the,
deep-rooted alfalfa plunt, which by
dentine analysis Is rich in lime,
iron and phosphates. I'nlike drugs,
Alvlta la a vegetable remedy,
which has proved especially bene
ficial In building up weakened,
rundown conditions, and In over
corning kidney, bladder and pros
tate trouble. No matter what you
have tried, try this remedy of na
ture now. A dollar buys a boa at
any drug atom. W. ir. Chapman'a

''For several iyeart the General
Petroleum Corporation baa main-
i tained fuel oil plaatt at Meadow
I Point on Puget "Sound and on the
Willamette' River, near Portland,
but It wat only a little more than
, a year ago that we Introduced
j ourselvea to tbe automobile pub
lic," taya R. G. Bowman, mana
I ger of the General Petroleum
Corporation in Oregon. "For
j merly the handling of fuel oil In
I bulk wa practically the only
; businesa with which we were
identified. But with the tremen
dous expansion and production
due to the development of our
California oil field it wa decid
ed there was need for a sure out
let of the refined product, a well
aa for the crude and fuel oil. -
"Two large plant were con
structed, one at Harbor Island In
Seattle and the other at Llnnton,
near Portland, from which distri
bution would be. made. It waa then
necessary tp acquire a fleet of
tank truck, and at the present
time there are 13 in Seattle and
10 In Portland, busy, literally,
night and day, distributing Gen
eral products. In addition to our
"land fleet", we have a "water
fleet" of eight large tanker to
carry the products northward
from our southern fields, with a
number of other vessel under
charter.
"The General Petroleum Corp
oation has built no service sta
tiona of Its own, but distributes
its products exclusively through
Independent dealers. . The green-and-white
of General Is becoming
a familiar sight In Washington
and Oregon, and will soon be
seen in California as well. Two
plants are practically completed,,
one at San Francisco and the
other at Oakland, from Which the
San Francisco Bay territory will
be supplied.
"Since the time when General
gasoline wa first placed on the
market, quality maMenance has
been upper most in the minds of
the executives. They feel that
they have been highly repaid for
the care and diligence used, In
keeping their standard so high, by
the remarkable reception accord
ed General gasoline, wherever it
has been Introduced.'
