Portal In South Wall of Palace of Education, Panama-Pacific Exposition, San Francisco, 1915 37 t 1 LET MATTER BE VOTED ON Let and People Move the Elevator Have right lAa Courier: I note you ask for opinions in last week's Courier regarding the moving of the elevator. If moving will settle the two years' fight for the love of Mike put the pro position up to the people at a special election and let us settle it. The day will come when thcro will be three or more elevators along the bluff, as the city grows. But we will first have to get the present one in operation and demonstrate its use and convenience. If tho elevator isn't wunted on Seventh street, let ua take it down and remove it to Sixth or Eighth. It is . only bolted, nnd could be easily moved. The right location for tho elevator, baring the present location, is Eiglitn street, landing at Seventh on the hill. Seventh street is the Main street of tho hill section, und the business interests of this street should bo giv en some consideration. The proposition to put the mat tor up to the people is a good one. A councilman informs us the expense of a city election is only about $75. Let the ballots have Fourth, Sixth, Seventh and Eighth street locations, and blanks where other locations may bo written in. Let us try it and see if we can't set- tlo this matter. The people are very tired of fighting and delays. Let a petition be presented to the council to call an election and see if the matter cannot be settled, A. WAITRR. has not affected our prices. Early Buying enables us to offer you this FalTs merchandise at perhaps the lowest prices ever offered in this country, and some dress goods on account of Tariff reductions are cheaper than last year. All our ladies'' ready-to-wear, mens and boys1 clothing, shoes for men women and children, in fact everything in fall stock has been purchased months ahead and for tunately there never was a time when we were better prepared to take care of our trade. We trust the European war will he of short duration. It the mean time the only war in Ore gon City will be against high prices. Adams Department Oregon City's Busy Store tore SOCIAL NOTES. Mrs. M.

As a result of tests made In the ter ritory which it serves, (he Kansas ex periment station rales sweet clover highly as a crop to grow on soil badly run down nnd lacking In humus. Like other legumes, sweet clover is able to extract nitrogen from the soil and de posit it In the nodules on its root sys tems. Its large roots penetrate the soli deeply, loosening and greatly Improving Its physical condition. It Is the verdict of the station oltielals that sandy, heavy clay and hard pun soils may bo great ly Improved by the growing of sweet clover.

A farmer friend who can well afford It told the writer the other day that he had about made up li Is mlud to get a first class six or seven passenger auto mobile so that lie anil Ills family may have tho enjoyment of trips here and there In It. This Is a mighty good idea. At best work on the farm Is exacting, there being; few times during the busy season when the whole family cau leave the premises for more than a few hours at a time. While the possession of Mils auto should not result in a neglect of the fiiini work, It will en able til is limn and his family to have many a pleasant trip, which will fur nish the fluent type of relaxation and recreation.

HOW TO GET STRENGTH utter any sickness Is purely a matter of nourishment, whether the attack was an ordinary cold or severe illness; the weakened forces cannot repulse disease geruis, and this is why a relapse is so otten fatal or why chrome weakness often follows sickness, Restoring strength to miliums of people for forty years has proven the real need for taking Scott's Kmulsiou after any sickness; nothing equals it nothing compares with it. Its pure, medicinal nourishment, free from alcohol or opiates, promptly creates rich blood, strengthens the nerves and lungs to avert tuberculosis.
