Stolen Dodge ,
Recovered: Does
Balancing Feat
The balancing feat performed
by Ellery Hall in the Armistice
day stunts with his Dodge sport
roadster was one requiring excep
tional skill in handling a car and
great smoothness in a clutch. The
clutch In Mr. Hall's car is a 7-plate
dry multiple disc type, enclosed.
The car was recently stolen and
recovered near Wolf Creek.
To balance the automobile, It
was necessary to drive slowly up
two board troughs laid across ele
vated roller bearings as fulcrums.
Very slow and steady approach
was necessary In order to stop the
car when it was perfectly balanced
in the air about one foot from the
ground in delicate teeter fashion.
Several other cars tried the
stunt but none succeeded In hold
ing the balance as long as Mr.
Hall. The clutch In his Dodge Is
standard in all types manufactured
in the last few years.

Careful Investigation Made
by Committee of ' ,
Every Plea. '
SOME FORCED WORK
Aid of Police Invoked in
One Instance to Force
Father to Support
His Family.
In looking through the records
of tho Community Chest, espoolally
those of the rellof work, It was
found that the large' number of
cases Investigated could bo classed
In three divisions: Those who are
helpless to earn any part of a
livelihood are found worthy of
hip and need to be fed, clothed
and housed until they are -able to
get on their feet again j Those who
are able only to make a part of
their way, found worthy and given
assistance until they can take care
of themselves; Those who are mak
ing no attempt to help themselves,
making a big noise nbout their
needing help., found unworthy and-
toiu to go to work and rustle.
B..L. Eddy, G. V. Wimberly and
T. H., Ness, surely were of a real
service to this community In, mak
ing such throrough Investigations,
purchasing-1 and, delivering neqes
sury. articles of; food and clothing
as were necessary for the bare
necessities of life, , procuring .Jobs
for worthy men, on women, telling
the uuworthy to got out and .rustle
and, in many cases,, even , teaching.
people now. to live, i
One case, reported bv a nelirhbor.
investigated by the committee, wnB
tnat ot a man, a widower with five
children pn his, i hands without
support. Before taking sick; he liajd,
uueu ciiLung woou anu uoing lor -nis
family what he could, but was un
able, to lay up. anything . for. the
future, i The epinmittoe found nothr
ing put a .little pancake flour. , The
children were badly inf neod of
fbod, nnd (Clothing. InsthlB partic
ular- case the committee made at
least a half dozen personal culls
ind saw that this fanilly was taken
care ;of and kept in school until
s,nch time as the man wont back
to work and carried on for himself.
f Another 'case Investigated was
that ot a woman with two daugh
ters. This woman had a very
pathetic' Story. Running true! to
form and feeling their obligation
fo the community for the 'proper
disbursements of funds, the men
of the committee made n thorough
investigation and found, that the
woman had been living in another
towu with her husband; that she
had been running out to dances
and staying out very late at. night;
that she had been keeping company
wun a salesman from this city;
that when told by her husbnnd
that she would have to stop going
out to dances unless she "got home
enrly she left home with her two
daughters. From there she went
to the home of relatives in stil
another town, but that because she
did not stay home nights they told
her to leave. She came to Rose
burg and immediately reauested
that the Community Chest take
care of her and hor children. It
was found that her husband, much
respected in his own community,
was willing that Bhe return home.
She refused to return, but after
a good lecture did send the chil
dren home to their father and, It
is thought, she returned to him
later also.
Still another case on Investiga
tion revealed a man, wife and two
young children without food. The
committee found that the man had
been employed, but for the reason
that the firm employed another
man who was of foreign birth, he
quit his Job without thought of
support for his family. In this case
tne committee round it necessary
to enlist the aid of city and county
officials to convince this man that
it was necessary that he go to work
at once to support his family.
Temporary relief was given only
nnd tho man went to work as the
head of any family should.
The Emergency committee did
not accept any second-hand in
formation as cause of immediate
action, but made personal investi
gation of every case. They did not
take seats in the front rooms of
homes and talk It out, but inspect
ed the kitchen and living quarters
(this with permission of course.)
1 lie only recompense this com
mittee received was that of the
"satisfaction of service well per
formed." Their services, which re
quired much time, were gladly
given.
The Emergency Committee this
year Is made up by F. W. Chase,
chairman; O. V. Wimberly and T.
H. Ness, Mr. Chase being the only
new member. Mr. Eddy was un
able to serve for the reason that
he would necessarily have to be
out of town a considerable part of
his time attending to legislative
duties.
The work will be carried on this
year with the same earnestness
and thoroughness as It was during
the past year. Certainly there Is
much good to be done through this
one department alone.

For the past 1 3 years I have been associated with the
Standard Oil Company of California, and have been lo
cated in Roseburg for the past three years as local mana- 1
ger, but I have tendered my resignation and have decided
to go into business for myself, and have chosen Roseburg
for the location, with Douglas County as my territory., ; '
I have faith in the future of Roseburg and Douglas
County, and in choosing it hope to help in the future, as I
have in the past, to build up the'eity and county and work
for its progress and betterment.
I take this means of thanking my friends and business
associates that I have made during the time I have been
here as manager of the Standard Oil Company, for the
business they gave the organization, and I can assure them
that my successor, Mr. Abbott, and his organization, who
have been my associates will be willing to be part of the
cogs in the wheel to keep Roseburg on the road to more
business and prosperity.
