The roof of your building is the

A roof that leaks causes no end of
trouble, besides a lot of damage.
The best way to protect yourself from
these unnecessary troubles, is to

guarantee it to be a perfect roofing
to give perfect satisfaction and to
last as long as the building it covers,
provided it is properly laid and
ordinary care is taken of it.
-Twenty-six years of experience enables
the makers to guarantee
Malthoid Roofing
under these conditions.
To be absolutely sure that you have no
roofing troubles, buy .
Malthoid and lay it properly.

probably gotten spoiled in '.the rain,

.weather clearing yet for a while.
Strawberries are holding their own and
the early cherries are ripening never
theless. :;" .."..i.o

meals to those who do not bring their
dinner. The Spencer boys of La
Grande, have the hall rented and will
conduct the evening dance and meals
will also be served during the even

OHIO VOTERS
GET GOAGHIrtG
Columbus, 0., June 27 Secretary of
State Charles H. Graves this month
will open and take personal charge of
the largest summer school in politics
in America. He will have on his list
of enrolled students t VTCC '"0 vol-,
ers t' zix.i c2 Ohio. His task
will uo vi.at of conducting- a course
by nail on liny t -n t-0 InX..-.!.;.-
and r vj.iJdis that come be
fore the voters of Ohio next fall. To
do, this effectively he has been given
an appropriation of $50,000 by the
people of the state.
Not only will Secretary Graves in
struct the people on their rights and
privileges in the fall election, but he
must also, with rigid fairness and im
partiality, see that each voter is giv
en every opportunity to study fully
both sides of every measure that is
to be submitted to the people for ap
proval or rejection. He must mail to
every voter pamphlets containing the
arguments advanced in favor of each
submitted measure and at the same
time mail a pamphlet containing the
arguments against the measures as
drawn up by the foes of the bill.
Already Secretary Graves' prelim
inary duties in this course of political
study are far from light, and the peri
od of the submission of referred meas
ures has not yet arrived. As it stands
he must see that the Ohio voters are
properly instructed on the merits of
four constitutional amendments, two
providing for different forms of the
"short" ballot, one for the exemption
of public bonds and another -making
women eligible for certain state po
sitions. Besides these two other
amendments, one calling for a classi
fication of the general property tax
and another for a smaller general as
sembly are now being initiated and
will be submitte d within a few weeks.
He will also have to instruct the
people on the referred measures. One
of these is a referendum on the work
in gm en's compensation act, passed by
the state legislature, which is going
to be referred back to the people, for
final action. Other measures that are
now being referred are bills seeking to
disenfranchise students in educational
institutions, the Cunningham agricul
tural commission bill and several tax
ation measures.
