Water Extensions
Cities as well as individuals should seek to render
service to their neighbors. Situated north of Oregon
City lies a section beautifully located, with such im
provements as gas, electricity and rapid transportation
to Portland. The Oak Grove and Jennings Lodge com
munities are growing by leaps and bounds the only
drawback being the difficulty they are experiencing in
obtaining an adequate water supply. At the present
time their needs are being supplied by individual water
iystems, which at best are a makeshift until something
better can be obtained. Jennings Lodge- through its
Community club, is trying to solve the problem by estab
lishing an independent system, obtain a supply by sink
ing wells, or preferably through a physical connection
with the systems of Portland or Oregon City. It is not
the province of the Enterprise to solve the problems of
the water board, but it has been suggested that slight
changes at the intake would increase the amount of
water so that sufficient would be available to care for
these communities until the population became large
enough to warrant the construction of a second pipe line
to the source of supply.
If such an arrangement could be brought about, a
real service could be rendered1 to communities that are
at our door. These communities should be bound to us
by every tie of social and business life. Their location
is such that every interest of theirs should be our inter
est. In helping them we will be doing a neighborly
act, and at the same time make the water plant of Ore
gon City by reason of the increased business, a better
business institution for our own city. It would be no
unpleasant shock for the water rate to come down. Let's
wake up and become acquainted with out neighbors on
other than election days, when a county division fight
is on.

NEw YORK, June 25. Nobody in
this whole wide land (You can't call
It "broad" any more without having
some punster interrupt you) is more
grateful for the outlook of businesss
thriving next autumn than . are the
chorus girls of the shows just closed
and closing. Beautiful June is more
liable to be a sad month for thenr..
There isn't enough summer time chor
using to take the place of the winter
affairs that stack the scenery quietly
in a storehouse . But they are being
rapidly absorbed into New York
fashion modeling, and they are per-
fecty happy to walk haughtily across
a show room for a change so long as
the good little pay envelope appears
just the same at the week's end. At
a fashion show put on the otner day
by one New Yor maker of women's
clothes, $300,000 was spent on the
production. Musical . comedy has
nothing; on that so far as the chorus
girl is concerned.
Rice and Tomatoes.
Mix cup of boiled rice, half jcup
cracker crumbs, egg. salt, pepper, but
ter and tomatoes to flavor and bake
half hour.

Crown Willamette
Nine Tops League
By Sunday Victory
The Crown-Willamettes again head
the league in-Willamette Valley base
ball. In one of the most spectacu
lar games of the season they Sunday
aeieaiea-tne united Artisans by f-
score of 4-to-3.
Moeller, on the mound for the paper
makers, allowed five hits. His sup
port was chalked with tour errors.
Thompson allowed four hits and his
team made two errors. He pitched
into the hands of Kerr, the Artsans'
star backstop. Kracke caught for
Willamette.
One of the features ol the game
was the clever work between the Ar
tisans' short stop and first baseman
who delivered a professional brand
of ball. Rittenhaus with three hits
out of- four times at bat, starred tor
the paper makers, and Judd, newly
placed in the field, drew the crowd
when he nailed two hot ones in mid
air, with -one hand.
Plillsboro Sunday defeated the Kirk-
natricks by a seven to three score.
met defeat on the
at the hands of
the Bolton Bugs. The score was 13-to-9.
The Bolton team also took
their game a week ago Sunday, win
ning 5-to-4 from the Mountain Road
nine.
The Crown-Willamette team is sche
duled to go to Salem next Sunday to
play the Senators. The Salemitees
last Sunday won from Camas In a
10-inning game; score 2-to-l. The
C-W team plays Camas at Camas on
the Fourth of July.
It's pretty hard to wait eighteen
years and search two continents to get
the girl you want to marry and then
have your romance end in an arrest
for A. W. O. L. That's the sad story
of Lieut. Marcus Sakarfos, graduate
of the Greek Military Academy, who
was arrested here the other day,
Eighteen years ago, wheti Sakarfos
was a Lieutenant in the Greek Ro7al
Navy, he met an English girl, fell in
love with her, and tried to persuade
he rto marry him. He failed for the
time and the girl returned to Engalnd.
Some time later, he went there to find
her. She had gone to America, he was
told. Just asi he was about to pursue
her, he was recalled for service in the
Balkan war. When he was through
with that war, he sailed for the United
States, and kept on looking until we
went Into the World War and once
more he became a soldier Then one
day, on leave, he saw the girl at
Brighton Beach ! This time he won her I
and they were married. He was sta- i
tioned at Fortress Monroe and after I
several months, he got leave to go
home. He failed to return, probably
deciding that he had waited long j
enough to settle down at home. And :
if he hadn't got himself into the arms
of the law by speeding his automobUo j wn.

The Squaw Man.
Not the languorous derelict of fic
tion and drama who marries the
daughter of the Big Chief at Walla
Walla, with the aid of tbe medicine
man of the tribe and then allows the
lady to tote all the burdens of the fam
ily until some form of sudden death
vipes out his seven 'elder brothers,
his father, and several uncles, and the
family lawyer cables to him to como
home at once and take the title and
when he takes the Limited for the
East without even the formaity of say
ing good-bye to his, helpmeet.
Nor that even more lanquid hercr
who weds the lovely Princess of the
South Seas by the casual jumping over
a broomstick or something equally
naive. And never works again until the
beauteous daughter of the American
consul awakens his slumbering man
hood and he harks back to the Stares
to become the husband of the consul's
daughter, and the secretary of the con
sul's pickle factory, leaving the Prin
cess to commit Jiari kari or something.
The Squaw Man of whom I write,
is indeed a first cousin to both the
above gentlemen. But hb i3 the cui-,
tivated or hot-house variety of the
breed.
Being no less a personage than the
oft-described and frequently encounter
ed male who markets a well-knit
figure, a thatch of wavy hair, a wheed
ling tongue and an ability to fling a
fancy foot In a one-step or trot, and
purchases therewith the tnore or less
5ovely heiress to a very large fortune.
He is about as necessary to the
world as a jib boom is to a Ford
roadster. And cuts about as much ice
in his community as a one-legged man
in a Marathon.
And at home. he is equally negligible.
Children and servants alike ignore
him.
He is just the rococo ornament of
the social body the frosting on the
cake. He just sticks arour.d like an
iron rein deer in a front yard, taking
u n room that might be filled with
something with red blod Jn it.
Until the Divine Author of the hu
man comedy summons him to coire
and take his title, and of course you
know what that is. Just a Squaw Man.
THE WOMAN CITIZEN
Behold the Highway.
When we are in a highway do we
think what a wonderful thing it is?
Now that we are voters it behooves us
to inform ourselves about these most
useful public devises, and to take a
share in regulating them.
Wa have the worst roads among civ.
ilized countries. This is because dis
tances are so long and we are a sparse
ly settled country because our rouds
are built by localities instead of central
government, because they too often
fall into the hands of political spoils
men rather than expert road engin
eers, because as a people we do not
know what good roads are and have no
idea what we ohght t'o demaad.
It is expensive to have good roads,
and more expensive not to have them.
Over poor roads transportation takes
longer and smaller loads can be taken.
The cost in time lost is paid ultimately
by the consumer of goods transported;
and we would find it cheaper to build
better roads and save time and money.
A city is judged by the appearance
of its streets; a county or state by thj
excellence of its roads. Poor roads
and rough pavements are unsightly.
dangerous, noisy and expensive.
The Increasing use of ths auto is
making for better roads as auto as
sociations bring pressure upon legis
latures.
Many mothers are becoming inter
ested in good roads on account of the
school wagon which takes their chil
dren to and from school. They hace I
found out the value of the consolidated j
school and they want good auto roads
to lead to it that their children may
make the trip more quickiy and with
less discomfort.

them all. Purses, carpets; bags, and

Question: Can I take advantage ot
the loan when I have no security'
How can this be done?
The bonus bil, passed by the legis
lature and the people of the state
which provides a loan fund for ex-ssr-
vice men, can be used so that proper
ty can be bought and that same pro
perty used as security for th9 loan.
This means that property can be
purchased and a mortgage given on
the property as collateral or the loan.
In order to do this, it is necessary
to make an aigreement with a proper
ty owner who is willing to give a deed
for the property so that you can se
cure title to it. The property can
then be used as the security required
by the bill.
Under the law, loans are made to
the extent of three-quarters of the
value of the property. The proced
ure is this:
Secure the title by agreement with
the property for the remaining one I
a first mortgage on the property in re
turn for the loan of three-quarters of
the purchase price; turn this money
over to the property owner as a pay
ment, giving him a second mortage on
the propert yfor the remaining one
fourth of the nurchase price, or mak
ing a contract with him for the pay
ment of this remaining balance
Although this arrangement depends
largely upon the accomodation of the
owner of the property you desire to
buy, many real estate offices, and pri
vate citizens throughout the state are
willing to make this arrangement The
risk for them is slight, and they re
ceive three-fourths of the purchase
rice of the property practically as a
first payment.
The limit of the state loan is $ juuu.
This sets the limit of the 'valuation
cf the p-operty to b? purcnasep n
j.nnn rniloou fha TiYTi?rtv owner if
willing to take a second mortgage or:
a larger amount than the remaining
quarter of the purchase price. A to
total of $3000 however, is the full ex
tent to which the rtate 'will make a
loan.
The administration of the bill is
placed in the hands of a committee
of five; the governor, secretary cf
state, adjutant general and two ap
pointed members who are Lyman Rice
of Pendleton and Arthur C. Spencer
of Portland. This committee will
draw up the rules for the adminis
tration of the loans and bonus next
month, after which standard form will
be issued and applications will be in
order.
Any person who was a resident f.t
Oregon at the time of enlistment is
eligible to receive compensation. Any
person whose permanent home was in
Oregon but who enlisted in- another
state becomes eligible upon proof oi
residence here. In case the person
eligible for compensation is dead, his
relatives receive the compensation un
der the same provisions as those of
the War Risk Insurance act.
Year Is Time Limit
Applications f6r the cash bonus
must be made by May 25, 1922, or
within one year from date of dis
charge from the service. The bonus
is figured at a rate of $15 per month
fo rail time in the service between
the datees of April 6, 1917 and Novem
ber 11, 1919. Application for the cash
bonus precludes the right to make use
of the loan feature.
EDITOR'S NOTE: The following-
article by Mr. Hammond Is an expau
ation of the general features of th
bonus bill passed at the last elec
tion. Beginning- Monday. Mr Ham
mond, who was one of the framers of
the measure, wil ccsauct a question
and answer cepartment In the col
umns of the Enterprise. All Inquir
ies should be addressed to "Editor
Bonus Column. Enterprise, Oregon
City."
(By Phil Hammond)
The bonus bill was passed by the
people of the state in order to aid
the ex-service men, who gave up their
nositions and their time, to get back
on an even footing with the Industrial
world.
It Includes two distinct and option
al provisions, a cash bonus ot a loan.
Extra pay,- received while in the
service such as from th espruce pro
duction division, is deducted from the
the bonus. That is, $15 is deducted
for each month during which extra
remuneration was received. State
aid received under the educational bill
or similar measures is deducted from
the casn bonus. Aid received from
auy other state is also deducted In
the event, however, that the national
government should pass a bonus bill
thoee eligible to receive aid under the
present law would receive both the
state and federal bonuses.
The loan is limited to $3000. Al
though the constitutional amendment
reads $4000, the limit was set by the
legislature at $1000 less. A total of
75 per cent of the net appraised value
of a piece of property can be borrowed
with the property .as security. Ar
rangements can be made under the
loan to secure title to the property
and place it as security, or in the
event that it is desired to improve a
piece of property, to secure the loan
in advance and mortgage the improve
ments.
The loans run for 30 yars. altlu
a ruling may be establisned by the
committee providing for shorter per
iod loans at higher yearly payments.
The loans on 30 year basis are paid
back at the rate of six per cent per
year. The interest is four per cent,
the remainder of the six per cent pay
ment being applied against the prin
ciple. As the principle becomes
smaller, the amount of interest de
creases and the amount applied
against the principle becomes larger.
But the payments continue at - the
Btandard rate of six per cent of the
total amount borrowed. '
No time limit is placed upon appli
cations for the loans, but a loan can
be made to one person but once Per
sons receivinlg compensation -under
the war risk insurance act are also
eligible to receive the loan.
The loan may be payed off at any
time when regular payments are due
Part payment may be made In sums
of $25 or multiples thereof. No
change is made if the property is
sold to a person who is also eligible
to receive the loan, but if sold to
someone without this qualification,
To the voters of Oregon City;
So much has been said about the
school administration of Oregon City
during the recent campaign for the
election of school directors that we
deem it a public duty to Jnform the
residents and voters of tbe school
district as to the facts relative to
certain statements that were circulat
ed just before election.
Some of the people were mislead bv
misrepresentations, calculated tc
bring about the defeat of two members
of the board, who were candidates
ior reelection the office of the schood
clerk being used as a basis for a bit
ter fight, wherein prejudce was sub
stituted tor reason.
First: It was stated to many vot
ers as a fact tnat tne school board in
tend dto dismiss the teachers who
had ;signed tne Latouretfe-Meissner
petitions. While we have first-haaj
information that these teachers were
definitely informed by the circulator
of the petitions that there would be no
other candidates, we would not, in
any case, contemplate any action that
would deprive any teacher of her right
to exercise her privileges of citizen
ship. Such action would be unfair,
unjust and unworthy of any school
director. We believe that the elec
tion and retention o teachers should
be based upon their ability to render
service to the school district, and not
upon their individual views as to the
personnel of the scfiool board.
Second: It was also stated as a
fact that the school clerk drew a sal
ary of several thousand dollars per
annum; rhat he was paid to much
and he does little in return for the
compensation paid him. We are
firm in the conviction that the school
clerk earrjs every dollar of his salary
of $45 per month and we would not
think it good business to place the
responsihilitiees ot this 'position in
fTlA hands ff i-nnffiman- nnrenna -n-1..-.

might be willing to attempt to handle
the work for less money. There is
a vast amount of detail connected
with the situation of which the pub
lic generally has little knowledge.
Last year the school clerk's office re
ceived and disbursed one hundred
thousand dollars, in round numbers,
and he is obliged to keep a set c!
books adequate for the business af
fairs of the diistrict He handles
the routine of meetings and the work
incident to executing contracts with
our corps of teachers. He must be
ready at any time to devote whatev
er time may be required for school
district affairs, and we desire to say
in this connection, that repeated au
dits have convinced us that the books
of the present incumbent of the school
clerk's office are admirably kept and
that he has been complimented by
more than one auditor for his effici
ency and accuracy.
Third: Another statement. , hat
was circulated during the campaign
carries with it a direct reflection
upon the honesty and integrity of the
members of the school board. We re
fer to the chailge that the school
board paid a sum stretching from
$1000 to $1640 for printing the Hes
perian, the annual publication, of the
high school students. Until we made
an investigation of this matter, with
in the last few days, we had no knowl
edge of the Hespeerian affairs, but
we did not know that the school board
had nothing to do with hand'ing the
publication and did not pay a single
dollar toward it. We have learned
that the printing cost was $675 and
that it was based upon a competitive
figure. Tne students and their fac
ulty advisors have always controlled
this student publication, without ad
vice or assistance, financial or other
wise from the schood board.
We make these statements advised
ly in order to correct the impressions
obtained by a numbeer of people from
misrepresentations and utter false
hoods for the most part cn the day
before election.

unless the principle has been reduced
to 60 per cent of the total amount
borrowed. Fifteen days after date
of sale is allowed in order to make
this reduction. The rate of interest
then rises from four to six per cent

years after the date of sale.

state to take care of the loans and
