BEER FOR FIREMEN
HOW TO BOOST
.As-
I
Honor Everywhere
for Edison's Genius
Edison Week, October 18th to October 23rd
The whole country is celebrating Mr. Edison's great achieve
ments this week.
Just 10 months after the greatest fire in the history of New Jersey,
he has rebuilt a group of gigantic factories capable of 100 per cent
increased production in Diamond Disc Phonographs and Records.
The New Edison Diamond Disc Phonograph is one of Mr. Edison's greatest inventions,
the perfect musical instrument, resulting from four years' continuous research by the master
inventor.
All music lovers who have heard of this great musical triump should hear the New Edison
this week.
Special Concerts Every Day
We 'have arranged a special concert for each days of Edison
Week a choice program from the great library of Edison
Records, the best in the world of music.
Come in and hear the New Edison. Note. how perfectly
it reproduces the artists' music. Absolutely true to the ori
ginal human, life-like, natural. - It is the laboratory re-crea-,
tion of music as opposed to manufactured music. It is the store
house into which the world's best music has been poured. A
mere touch releases and you hear it just as it was sung or played
by the artist.
Gome In
No charge for seats. Come to these special concerts any
morning or afternoon this week. Bring your friends. No obli
gation. You will not be asked to purchase. Nearly everywhere
in America people are bowing this week to Mr. Edison's genius.
We give you the opportunity to hear the result of many years
of his work and profound study. He has given and is still giving
most of his time and attention to the Diamond Disc. It is
his pet invention.

j Sehuebel Wants Grand Jury to Oct;
But Loder Is Liberal
The Honorable Christian Sehuebel,
j city attorney of the county seat, and
I avowed foe of the Demon Rum doesn't
see why City Recorder John Loder is
willing to be so lenient with H. P.
Jones, a jitney driver, and some of
the members of Hose Company No.
4. Mr. Loder fined Jones $100 for
bringing eight gallons of beer into
town Monday night, and then remitted
$75 of the fine, while the fire com
pany paid the remaining $25. Mr.
Loder said that he believed this met
the demands of justice in the case,
but Mr. Sehuebel couldn't see it.
In order to have things his way,
Mr. Sehuebel succeeded in getting at
the grand jury Tuesday, and laid be
fore them a list, of names of witnes
ses whom he declared could give sur
prising evidence in regard to the
eight gallons of beer and incidents
that he alleged were violations of the
local option law. Mr. Sehuebel seems
to believe that the beer that Jones
brought in was ordered and authoriz
ed by some of the city firemen, and
that the firemen were hoping to use
their official capacity to "cover up
the shipment. Mr. Loder, who inves
tigated the case thoroughly, doesn't
think the firemen were concerned at
all.

Courier Reader Finds Poem that Con
tains a Really Good Sermon
Frank Moore, one of the steadfast
friends of the Courier, was looking
over some St. Paul (Minn.) papers
last week, and in a copy of the Pio
neer Press he ran across a poem that
had beenc lipped from the London
(Va.) "Mirror.'.' The poem impressed
Mr. Moore as ljeing worth while
spreading about, and he sent it to
the Courier, which is glad to reprint
it.
It Isn't Your Town It's You
If you want to live in the kind of a
town
That's the kind of a town you like,
You needn't slip your clothes in a grip
And start on a long, long hike.
You'll find elsewhere what you left be
hind, For there's nothing that's really
new.
It's a knock at yourself when you
knock your town;
It isn't your town it's you.
Real towns are not made by men
afraid
Lest somebody else gets ahead,
When everybody works and nobody
shirks,
You can raise a town from the
dead.
And if while you make your personal
stake,
Your neighbor can make one, too,
Your town will be what you want to
see;
It isn't your town it's you.

THE SONG OF THE PURE WATER GOD!
I am the Spirit of Pure Water!
You have beckoned I have come!
My home is in the dizzy heights of the upper Clackamas, in the
snow-capped mountains, the dashing brooks, the cool ravines and the
glassy pools.
For years I have passed you by, singing my joyous song of free
dom. For years yea centuries I have rushed madly by you, proud
in my strength which knew no bounds, happy in my freedom, and yet,
withal, sad at heart because you needed me and did not call.
I am the Spirit of Pure Water!
You have harnessed me with a bridle of steel. You have taken
me from my stainless bed and have sent me coursing o'er mountain
sides, through rocky tunnels, across deep chasms and down mighty
cliffs. Your iron bands creak and groan, as I charge my way in
darkness through miles of forest and acres of golden grain. At
your bidding I hurry onward ever onward in my mad race to reach
you and to serve you. At last I arrive and bow to thy will, shorn of
my great strength which once turned mountain boulders from my
path, and yet happy in the thought that my usefulness to mankind has
just begun. , . .
You have beckoned I have come!
I bring you joy, and health, and peace of mind and body. I
bring you new life, new energies and send new ambitions pulsating
through your blood. I fill your homes with sunshine eternal and
smile nt you and with you. I am the sweetest nectar of the Gods
and Fortune follows me where'eer I go.
My very breath is strength my kiss is Life!
I am the Spirit of Pure Water!
You have beckoned
I have come!

TOM BURKE HONORED
Local Attorney Named Head of Live
Wires for Ensuing Term
At the Tuesday luncheon of the
Live Wires of the Oregon City Com
mercial club Thomas A. Burke was
unanimously elected "main trunk."
Mr. Burke was not a "receptive can
didate'' for the office, and was utter
ly surprised when the honors were
wished upon him. It was with some
difficulty that he managed to make
a graceful speech of acceptance, but
he made the speech just the same. It
is believed that under Mr. Burkes
leadership the Live Wires will ac
complish many things that will be
found worth while, and his selection
is generally approved .
Charles W. Risley was chosen Sub-
Trunk and A. C. Howland, Transmis
sion Wire.

hardly breathe and couldn't talk. 1
gave them Foley's Honey and Tar and
nothing else and it entirely cured
them.'' This reliable medicine should

Government Issues Bulletin on Avail
able Supplies in Cascades
Well to the west of the great rock
barrier which in the early days of the
Republic was assumed to be the nat
ural western boundary of the United
States lies another great belt of ele
vated land surmounted by a chaos of
rugged peaks and pyramids the
Cascade Range of Washington and
Oregon. In these mountains there is
an inexhaustible store of potential
wealth, much of it belonging to the
Nation not precious or useful metals
for mines, however rich, must eventu
ally become exhausted, but a wealth
of running water, an endless chain
revolving with the seasons. The
streams of the Cascades possess in
high degree the requisite characteris
tics for the successful development
of water power, namely, steep grad
ient, .abundant water and compara
tively uniform flow. Ada to these
the enormous resources of timber,
metallic and other minerals, and
lands as yet developed only in small
part but promising an extensive fu
ture market or water power and it
becomes apparent that the large areas
of country surrounding the Cascade
Plateau have in the undeveloped pow
er of their streams very great po
tential wealth.
The summaries of the available
power in each basin are computed
from the avearge flow for the lowest
week on record and from the flow
that could be realized from possible
storage. The flow with storage is
computed on the basis of the con
tinuous discharge that can be main.
tained by the release of the stored
water during the most extreme
drought on record, considering the
length and severity of long-water
periods.

of life the author says in part:
"But underlying Germany's love of

"There is something peculiarly
touching in the home birthdays and

such simplicity and downright love of

ESTACADA WANTS WATER
Northern County Community Hopes to
Drink South Fork Soon
Through the courtesy and efforts
of Engineer Hal Rands of the Oregon
City Water Commission, assistant en
gineer White has determined the exact
elevation of the Estacada reservoir,
being 701 feet above sea-level.
Doubt was expressed as to whether
the water from the South Fork pipe
line would flow into the reservoir, in
case Estacada obtained water from
this source. In as much as the -in
take of the South Fork line is at an
elevation of about 730 feet and the
water is forced over the Springwater
divide at an elevation of 702 feet,
this question is answered.
As to whether Estacada buys
water from Oregon City depends en.
tirely on the outcome of the ncgo
tiations now under way between Es
tacada City Council and the neighbor
ing water commission. As soon as
Oregon City has its water completely
installed, the commission will find
time to consider the local applica
ton. The residents of Oregon City are
now using the South Fork water, al
though all of the city's mains are not
yet handling it, but will be in a few
days. (Estacada Progress)
LO, THE POOR EDITOR
Estacada Man Complains that Life is
Not All that it Should Be
The field of journalism is a won
derfully awe inspiring and respons
ible one, furnishing the writer a
chance to mold the morals, senti
ments and development of communi
ties, offering unlimited scope to prac
tice the highest obligations to their
fellow men and last but not least the
privilege of working 'steen hours per
day and wondering where the price
of the next meal is coming from.
As a further warning to those as
piring to editorial success, xney
must primarily bear in mind the fact
that an editor sometimes gets licked,
sometimes has a mend and some
times is able to get in a collection, al.
though this latter ray of sunshine sel
dom happens from a subscriber, for
subscribers have inherited the idea
that newspaper subscriptions are
never due, but like contributions to re
ligious work, payable whenever the
spirit moves or a dollar is found for
which no other use can be imagined,
But aside from these minor consider
ations the newspaper field offers an
enticing future with an occasional
meal. (Estacada Progress)

THIS IS SHOCKING
Pitiful Crime Is Reported from Mo
lalla and Should be Punished
It is reported that, during the
dance, last Saturday night, liquor was
given to several small boys. If this
can be proven we hope that it will
not be dropped, but that the guilty
parties be made to answer for their
crime. There is nothing connected
with the liquor business quite so bad
as the inducing of young boys to
drink. The law very wisely provides
severe punishment for the giving of
liquor to minors and in this case the
matter should be thoroughly investi
gated and if any are guilty they
should suffer the penalties provided
by the law. There has been too much
of this going on for some time and
for some reason it has been passed
over. (Molalla Pioneer.)

Estacada Progress Offers Hints on
Sabbath Observation
A recent copy of the Estacada Pro
gross offers somewhat contradictory
advice to its readers in regard to the
Sabbath, but maybe in Estacada they
know how to do these things. And in
cidentally we wonder why the editor
didn't say what the minutes mention,
ed were to be taken off of. Down
here in the county seat we have lots
of minutes, but we find it hard to
pry them loose. The Estacada ad
vice is as follows:
"Let's everybody fool the new min
istcr next Sunday by attending church
and he will take it for granted that
we are old stand-bys.
Next Sunday, take off five minutes
and carefully examine the boards in
your sidewalk and if they need re-
pairing, take off five to ten minutes
longer and still find time to attend
church."
