The Franklin Car
Stand alongside any rough roadway and watch
the passengers in the average car brace for the
jars and bumps!
Stiff, rigid construction that is what frazzles
a man's nerves and the mechanism of his car.
But here is a new experience for you.
Let us take you out in the Franklin car.
Drive the car yourself over stones, holes,
car tracks, choppy roads, anywhere. Keep
on running it for an hour or two and learn
why road shocks can never reach you and
how annoying rattles are kept from de
veloping. A new achievement of automobile engin
eering is this modern anti-rattle construc
tion, that eliminates friction and wear.

To Bruce Dennis, eastern Oregon
newspaper man, is due the credit
tor arousing the people of Oregon
to the fact that we are In the great
est war, that we are to be the decid
ing factor In that war, and that the
attitude of the people at home will
save many lives of our own men. In
the support of the administration in
this Immense undertaking.
Bruce Dennis ts the proper man
as head of the State Council of De
fense, and dealing as he does with
the moulding of public sentiment,
he realized the value of getting real,
first hand information from the ac
tual seat of war to the actual seat
of government, the people them
selves. It matters not how much the of
ficials and the financiers strive to
support the administration, if the
common people do not get behind
the various moves for the promo
tion of this war, the results will be
anything but satisfactory.
That a responsive chord was lo
cated Is demonstrated by the fact
that every audience addressed by the
Canadian veterans was a record one
for the community where the meet
ings were held, and the keen in
terest displayed shows that the sup
port of our men over seas will be the
most loyal.
All honor Is due to Bruce Dennis,
for he Is the man who secured the
speakers for the tour, arranged the
speaking schedule tor the state be
fore the start, and during the entire
trip which covered a month, 100,
000 people were addressed, and not
a single date was missed, although
the speakers addressed as many as
eight audiences In a single day.

Liberty Loan drives, Red Cross

Iiaby Bonds, they are with us all the
time.
It is no striking thing for the man
who has the money, to go to his
bank and buy a $1000 war bond.
It is good business, and to make the
necessary $1000, he has used good
business judgment.
But when the masses, the children
and grown-ups, commence to save
the money that ts otherwise wasted,
a seed for thrift has been planted
that will bear fruit for ages to come
In the nation.""
It is our Job to buy $17,000,000
worth of war stamps and baby bonds
in Oregon during 1918. To do this
we must buy $60,000 worth each
day for the year, and thus far the
sales have reached only about $20,
000 worth per day.
This may sound large, but when
we realize that It Is but about seven
cents per day each, tor the citizens
of the state, we see how easy the
task will be.
The baby bonds cost this month
but $4.13 and will be worth $5 each
at their maturity In 1925, which
means that the Interest Is com

With the American Army In Prance.
American troops are now occupying
a sector of the, Lorraine front In
Prance. This announcement Is per
mitted by the military censor.
The whole American sector Is re
sounding with the boom of guns.
Two Americans were killed and nine
wounded during recent bombard
ment and one suffered shell shock.
It has been ascertained that the
American gunners wrecked several of
the enemy dugouts and so badly dam
aged the first line positions ihut at
one point the Orniatia were unable to
occupy them Sunday.
American officers sre elated over
the results of the flsst artillery duel
between American and Urrnian gun
ners, which followed a preliminary
shelling by the Germans. In official
reports the Infantry coinmaiulers paid
tribute to the promptness wltn which
the artillery responded to the call for
a barrase and to tho effectiveness of
the artillery fire.
Aerial reconnalnsnnccs showed that
the American gunfire had had a very
destructive effect.
