By the use of a good mod ern air pump a degree of exhaus tion enn tie obtained which Is so perfect that no residual matter can be detected except by the most delicate testing. The Sprengel pump.

Boards That "Groaned" Although the phrase "groaning boards" Is usually associated with the heavy meals of older days, the phrase seems to have a double ori gin.

Mr. ¡-and wan enroute to the borne of» an uncle, Arthur Bales, and had Just topped the rather steep and rough hill with his sedan when the! car left the narrow roa«l and plunged down the almost abrup* embankment nearly 50 feet, turn ing completely over three tunes be fore it came to a stop, right «ide ' up, against a large boulder. When •Mr. Lane felt the car leave tne ' grade he crouched below the «t-*er- i ing wheel and hung on for dear ! life. The act probably saved hist life, for the descent from the road I to the point of contact with the rock is fully a half pitch Mr. Land can not account for the accident as he was driving at a low speed, hav ing just i*ased his car up over th»* top of the grade wh«*re every one familiar with the road slow« up in expectation of a head-on meet. Mr. I»an«i escaped unscathed and, while the car cannot be thoroughly in spected for damage until pulled out of the dense canyon, it gives little evidence of external damage. This hill has always been considered dangerous for automobile travel lor the reason that it is exceedingly rough and of one track width. Un til this year, when Charles T m road patrolman, took it upon him self to work back a couple of turn outs, a meet on the grade nstant that the down grade car had to back entirely down the hill. Until this year travel on this route ha.' been comparatively light, particul arly in the winter, but owing to in dustrial development heavy travel prevailed all summer and will con tinue, which means that the grade should be widened. Cheat to Give Christmas Boxes. Fifty boxes, valued at 17.50 each, are being packed this week by the community chest for distribution to deserving families of the commun ity as Christmas cheer. Each box will contain a quantity of ¿»ro'ery staples. Gifts for small child«» n will be included in boxes going to homes where there are such. The boxes are being packed at the Godard warehouse. The American Legion, as part of its community service, will handle the distiibu- tion. I»and Is Given County. The Lane county court was astounded this week when an own er of property which was desired for a road refused to accept any remuneration. His excuse was that he would still have too much prop erty on which to pay taxes. The court had offered to exchange fur the piece desired another tract which the county owned. The coun ty accepted the gift. Silk Creek Ranch Sold. The M. R. Hoffman ranch of 57 acres, located about five miles west of this city on Silk creek, has been sold to R. H. Bennett of Yakima, Wash.
