On December 30. the taxpayers of Clackamas
county will decide whether or not the road building pro
gram, as financed through special taxation, is to con
tinue. According to the estimated budgets prepared for
the: fifty-one road districts in the county, a total of a
quarter of a million dollars is needed! for the upkeep and
the improvement of the side roads and major arteries
that do not fall directly under state control.
At first thought a quarter of a million strikes the
taxpayers as a lot of money. It is. But those who vote
the tax will get more than a quarter of a million's worth '
of return. With automotive transportation increasing
by leaps and bounds, good roads mean higher valuation
of the property throughout the county. With a great
World Exposition practically assured, the county must
get its house in order to create the best possible impres
sion to the millions of visitors who will come to the state
in 1 925. This means that the roads must be good, for
the tourist who comes to the fair will come in an automo
bile, and it must be remembered that the investment
horse-power of a Flivver is often as great as that of a
high-powered car that is a liability to the owner's bank
account. But they both need good roads.
Wisely expended, a quarter of a million should get
its worth in highways, and a far greater return through
its benefit to the county.
Nowhere in the state have the farmer s been more loyal
to road building programs than in Clackamas county. In t
no county has money been more willingly expended.
And from all indications the, taxpayers of fifty-one road
districts will not halt the progress of the highways.
Past results prove road taxes an investment. No
one but a chronic grouch or a lunatic regrets the tre
mendous sums expended on -the Pacific Highway,
road to which progressive men point today with pride

is a constitutional remedy. Catarrhal
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con
dition of the mucous lining of the Eusta

you have a rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely closed.
Deafness is the result. Unless the in
flammation can be reduced, your hearing
mav be destroyed forever. HALL'S
