The efficiency of the department is great ly impaired when the driver of the auto is forced to throw out his clutch and use his brake to keep from. run ning over pedestrians, and there Is no J reason for doing it if the people heed the advice in such an admirable man-, ner as they did on the day mention ed.''. ;. . . The fire truck, however, is not the only conveyance needing right of way, for every volunteer fireman who has a machine necessarily has the same privileges that the truck has. It re solves itself into this: - When you hear the bell or the whistle, stay on the sidewalk. If you are driving, get close to the curb and stay there. The boys of the manual training de partment have made a number of ar tistic work tables which have been in stalled in the domestic science rooms.

Ordinarily it would be good business judgment to provide a sinking fund Just as soon as possible to begin liqui dating the floating debt, but this hap pens to be one when the state tax is going to be abnormally high, which added to the county, and road tax, j the school tax and the city tax will ..Un a U...JAH . .. n ' : . next scene was entirely different but Of course everyone will vote for the University appropriations.

In fact, Thomas can' argue on most any subject in a decidedly con vincing manner. It looks like the governor's race in Oregon was going to be hurdle. High School Items. (Continued from Page Three.)
