OREGON CUV ENTERPRISE FRIDAY, DECEMBER 12, 1919. Pact- MISS ALLEN, STATE NORSE, HERE IN Work Being Carried on in County With State Help it Bearing Good Fruit Miss Jane Allen, slate advisory who Is worklnn here under the Btate board ot health, was In Oregon j City Saturday, cominK here on busi ness In connection with her work. Miss Allen Is supervisor of the coun ty nurse. Miss Elizabeth Weiuhold, who Is sent here by the board of health, and who has been working during the past few weeks in this city at one day a week and will also work in the rural sections. This work will be taken up ajtam within a few days as soon as ns Allen returns. She is now working among the punt's ot the Milwaukie schools during the epidemic of small pox. Each morning she takes up her work visiting the school, and making a thorouch inspection. The children showing any signs of illness, are at once sent to Dr. l-owe. who has been selected for the work to assit. the nurses in diagnosing the cases. There are now 50 cases of small pox in Milwaukie. and at first it was thought adTisable to close the school, but by the county nurse making the daily trips and investigating this will probably be the means of the schools remaining open thus allow ing the students not afflicted to con tinue in their daily studies. At the conclusion of the work in Milwaukie Miss Weinhold will divide her territory in making her visits. Canby and its rural section will be taken up at first, then Estacada and its rural sections, Colalla and rural section and Oregon City and rural sections. Miss Weinhold will make her head quarters when visiting the districts In the vicinity of Oregon City with the Red Cross, and portion of the money derived from the nale of the Christmas seals of the Red Cross will go towards paying the expenses ot the county nurse for a certain period. The work is to be carried on per manently, but other means will be provided to carry on this necessary work. The county court recently In cluded in the budget for 1920. $1200 to be used for this object for the com ing year. Miss Weinhold is well posted on her duties, and comes here highly recom mended. For three years she had charge of the Visiting Nurses' asso ciation in Chigago, and a year in the county of Cook, 111., the county where rVifpfirn is located. Miss Allen, who orgm'.zed the work. is now one of the busiest little women in the northwest. After having charge of the training at St. Lukes hospital in Chicago she came west to take up this work. Calls are now coming from various pirts of the state to establish the e-mnty work and place therein nurses to visit the cities and rural sections now to be carried on in Clackamas cwity. Among the places awaiting her arrival, and where requests have c:me from sis counties, so that Clack amas county is considering itself Vicky in securing the assistance of these two trained nurses, who havt, already accomplished much since tak ing up their duties here. CL Tt the present plans and purposes of the county court are carried out a new wagon bridge will span the Clackamas river between Oregon City and Gladstone before the year of 1920 will have closed. In preparing the budget for the county expenses for next year, the court has allowed some fifty odd thousands of dollars for the general fund for roads and bridges. It Is proposed if the budget plan as now arranged and published goes througn to erect a substantial steel wagon bridge on the site of the present bridge during the coming summer. These plans are altogether in line with the country wile program ot good roads which has been adopted by the people recently when they voted to bond the county for a largo sum money to build hard surfaced ot mads in all Darts of the county. The present bridge structure was built over the Clackamas river about 30 years ago and it has from time to time been enlarged to take care of increased traffic until now the limit of expansion has been reached and the building of a new structure is the only solution of the traffic problem over the river. It is altogether probable that the services of the state highway com mission will be called for in making the surveys and the drawing of the plans for the bridge. This work will probably be commenced in the near future and as soon thereafter In the spring as theweather will permit the actual work of constructing the new bridge will begin. It is very probable that the bridge will be entirely built of steel. The span Is so long as to make a concrete Ktructure impracticable at this time. There has been some discussion on the matter of changing the location of the bridge. Some advocate the moving of the bridge up the stream while others favor a plan of moving it d-iwn stream from the present site. Hut it seems to be the general wish and desire to have the new bridge lo cated on the site of the present Ftructure and the present plans of the county has this plan In mind. Enterprise want ads brings results AMAS RIVER TO BE LAND SALFS INDICATE If one for a moment questions the fact that real estate In Clackamas county ts not on the move they have but to visit the county recorder's of fice and they will be convinced that this county has never seen such ex changing of property as is now gotns on in this county. The movement is not confined to any particular sec tion of the county but is general all over the county, nor Is it confined to any particular class of property. There is Just about as good a mar ket for farms as there is tor residence property and visa versa. Another feature ot the market Is that a yer? heavy percentage of people are pav ing cash for their purchases. And mny others who own places that have been mortgaged are now paying oft their mortgages. An Oregon City real estate dealer when interviewed by the Enterprise. stated that he could not give a record of the sales he had made during the past two weeks because he was too busy making sales to take the time to make out his reports. This dealer did make the statement that not a day passed but what he closed one or more sales and while the interviewer was talking wit, him there was an office full ot people watt Ing their turn to see hira. It looked like the reception room of a fashion able doctor In a large city, or like the ante room of the sanctum sane torium of the one time eastern draw ing room rage, a Hindu sheep herder posing as a Brahmin prophet. During the month ot November tbe office of County Recorder G. J. N.-v recorded 271 deeds and 107 mort gages. One of the abstractors of this cn says that during bis experience in he abstract business he has never been so rushed as he has been during the past month, with more business to come during the first ot the year. Many people now coming westward are those who have engaged in farm ing in the eastern states, and are looking for farms in the west where the winters are mild and where the crops seldom fall, and even the mid dle western states are being largely represented, among the' newcomers. among these being North and South Dakota and Nebraska.

FIPEMAN HURT IN FIRS SPOKANE, Waslt., D. 8 Fire man Roy Finch was seriously injured and $100,000 worth of damage done early Sunday, when the Fairbanks Morse building In the downtown sec tion was gutted by fire of undeter mined origin. The company will re build in the spring. , No Time By unanimous vote nearly 1 00 farmers and good road boosters urged that the county court make its plans now to immediately place in the field at least two survey ing crews, properly equipped, so that the engineering detail incident to the expenditure of $1,700,000 in the paving of 1 45 miles of road, plus the funds raised by special district tax, Je commenced at once. It is obvious that if the recommendation is not fol lowed, that much valuable time will be lost next year ought to be devoted to actual construction. Road making has been reduced to a science and ad equate engineering is imperative for the right kind of permanent construction. Good engineering is bound to result in better roads, and the result of inferior engineer ing has been repeatedly , demonstrated, not only in Clackamas county but elsewhere in this state. This is ideal weather for preliminary work on the system of roads that have been authorized by the people. The farmers are impatient to get their highways im proved in the shortest time possible. There is no occas ion for delay and it is inadvisable to start real road build ing next spring, so that when the construction season ends next fall, the people who worked and voted for the rond measure will have something to show for their ef forts. , and Barefooted Against the Rolsheviki f iM sit 4; - 1 . r r first to hand.

EverybtMly who hd a message talked and several otners talked under nretest, but for three hours a happy feeling ran around the tables as the many speakers emphasized the Impor tance of continuing the good work that was merely started with the p:ia sage of the bond act.

UNDERWOOD ASPIRES WASHINGTON, !)! 6 Senator Oscar W. 1'ndrrwood of Alabama la a candidate to succeed the late Sena tor S. Martin of Virginia as detm cratic minority leader In the Benate, it was announced today. to Be Lost Good Fellowship Amalgamation of the spirit that won the victory for the good road measure in Clackamas county is evidenced in various ways. Never before has there been such good feeling between the residents of the county seat and the farmers of the county, some of whom have labored un der the delusion that the man in town cared for the wel fare of the farmer only to the extent of getting his money through the channels of trade. In fostering the good fellowship that has ripened through the close relations of the bond campaign, the Commercial Club of Oregon City is doing a great "and lasting work. The town citizen, with his paved high ways in sight, worked early and late for the plan to give equally good thoroughfares to the farmer, who respond ed to the extent that the majority for the measure was greater in the country districts than in Oregon City. The common interest of good roads will mean a better county for all of us to live in.
