cured by bonds or personal property
held by the justice court.
"The activity of the traffic officer,"
says the judge 'in explaining the small
amount listed for traffic iolations,
"has been confined to the north end of
the county and that portion of the
county south of the Clackamas river
has been unprotected for the past sev
eral months,"
Christmas seals, sold annually in or
der to raise funds throughout the state
for the fighting of tuberculosis, have
been sent to. all schools, lodges, and
other organizations in the county, and

' The penny seals sold here under
the direction of the Clackamas County
Public Health Association. The funds
go to the state organization, but the
major portion is returned for active
work in Clackamas county.
Quota is Assigned
According to the statement of the
local association, Oregon's minimum
quota is $39,164.25, which is a per
capita rate to every Oregonian of five
seals.
"The expenses and salary of the
Clackamas county health nurse are
being paid from the seal sale pro
ceeds of 1920," says the statement of
the association in regard to the seal
sale. "For three months, Miss Hilda
Morris, from Souix Falls, S. Dakota
is conducting an intensive demonstra
tion of public health nursing. Miss
Morries prepared for her work in St
Luke's hospital, Chicago and is ex
perienced in county nursing. She has
been well received every where and
the people of thecounty are making
ur to the fact that the boys and girls
of Clackamas county should have the
same protection against tuberculosis
as the herds are given.
Need is Shown
"The greatest single factor in the
battle to stamp out tuberculosis is the
penny Christmas seal with its enorm
ous educational and financial poten
tiality. "Every one will wish to help if he
is made to realize that this is just as
much a war as it would be if we were
fighting human adversaries
"The relentless microbe, tubercle
bacillus, directs its attacks against
those who are least able to withstand
it. This national tragedy can and
must be brought to a halt and the
cheerful Christmas seals are the
means to accomplish it.'

Smith's Saturday
Mrs. Lena K. Bacon, of Chanute,
Kansas, gave an interesting address
in the auditorium of the Oregon City
library; Tuesday. Mrs. Bacon's sub
ject was "Possibilities and Responsi
bilities." She also had charge of the
story hour at the library last Satur
day afternoon, when a group of chil
dren were interested.
"On Saturday afternoon of this week
Mrs. Caradoc Morgan, wife of Rev.
Morgan will again delight the children
with her interesting stories at the li
brary. The stories will be told from
3 to 4 o'clock, and the children are
to be given a cordial welcoming.
The first modern battleship to cost
over $5,000,000 was the British "ship
Inflexible, launched in 1881.
, The municipal elevator at Seventh
street will probably be in operation
again by the end of the present week
or by the first of next week, according
to Fred McCausland, city water super
intendent. As soon as the supply in
the reservoirs has reached a point
where it has an approximately normal
reserve, the elevator and the drinking
fountains will be started.
Trouble Not Serious
Wednesday morning at six o'clock
it was reported that the mouth of the
intake pipe at the headwaters of the
Clackamas had become clogged. The
high water had lodged so much ma
terial in that vicinity that the flow
was stopped. The damage was re
paired by 10:30 and., water was again
pouring into the reservoirs.
The six inch pipe that forms an
emergency repair over Clear Creek is
allowing a delivery of some two and
a half million gallons a day, Mr. Mc
Causland says, which will prove suf
ficient when the reservoirs attain a
normal height. The replacing of the
small pipe which bridged the gap torn
by the recent high water, will not be
started until the river has receeded
enough to make working conditions
fairly easy.
Supply Now Increasing
Water service to Oregon City has
been uninterupted since the repair of
the pipe line last Saturday afternoon.
The main was down for nearly a week
and during this time the supply be
came depleted to less than a million
gallons. The reservoir capacity here
is six and one-half million, and the
normal consumption is approximately
two million, gallons a day when the
elevator is running and no local serv
ice is denied. "
Reduction Varies from Five to
Eight Cents; Condition,
Of Market, Cause
Effective Thursday, wages at both of
the paper mills here were cut, and
day workers will go on a nine hour
instead , of an eight hour basis.
ThdB w&s announced! Wednesday at
Crown-Willamette and Hawley mills.
The reduction will involve nearly
1,000 men.
Day laborers recived a blanket
cut of eight cents , an hour. This
amount will be deducted from what
ever pay they are how receiving. In
stead xf wording eight hours, they will
work nine. The day "will be lengthen
ed a half hour on each side of noon,
work beginning at 7:30 a. m. and con
tinuing until 5:30 p. m., with one hour
off for lunch.
Shift Hours Remain
Shift workers will receive a blanket
cut offive cents per hour. The num
ber of hours which they work has not
been changed.
Approximate minimum day labor
wage which will be affected is 43
cents an hour, which will be reduced
to 35 cents. The shift work scale will
approximate 73 cents.
The cut amounts to approximately
ten per cent, and under it the mini
mum wage will be $3.15 for common
labor. The last cut which was made
at the two mills came on May 1, when
a general reduction of 20 per cent was
ordered, reducing common labor from
$4.32 a day to $3.46.
Competition Keen
The reason given for the cut is the
present necessity for reducing the cost
of paper production so that competi
tion in local and distant markets can
be met. The coast paper mills are at
present handicapped, due to the fact
that foreign manufacturers are plac
ing paper here at a much lower figure
than the domestic concerns can meet.
This is forcing a reduction, mill men
say, in order to keep the plants run
ning. When the market for paper be
comes tight it is found impossible to
operate the mills, and it. is felt that
tho reducting of wages will be better
than a forced shut down later in the
winter.
The removal of duty from Canadian
produced paper has considerable af
fect upon the local markets because
the northern manufacturers are abl"
to beat prices, not only due to a lower
wage scale but because they are more
favored by natural advantages.
Competition from Germany is also
strong, and the paper manufactured
there is placed in America far below
cost prices of the domestic stock. This
is due to the balance of foreign ex
change. The low value of the mark
makes it possible for the . Teutonic
concerns to retail their product here
at a figure which it is impossible for
the local mills to meet, unless their
operation expenses are reduced.

The Reason Why
People Wear Glasses
Defective eyesight impairs
physical and mental force.
This fact is conceded by every
learned scientist, and is the
principal reason why' in this
day of conservation, men and
women of strength both
mental and physical strength
wear glasses for the preser
vation of nerve force and vi
tality as much as for the bet
terment of vision.
A careful examination by

termine whether or not they
require attention.
