Drop forgings are best known to the $5000 and $0000 cars. They
demand special machine equipment; they make necessary expen
sive dies. The manufacturer of the $5000 c type has got to go
into the market and bid for them. He dare not consider installing
the high priced machine equipment.
The Willis-Overland plant possesses over $3,000,000 worth of
machine equipment. When they think a drop forging is needed at
a certain point, they can go ahead and make it themselves at com
paratively trifling cost. In the Overland Model 69T there are no
cheap castings substituted for drop forgings.
For instance, the Overland front axel .is forged in one heat
without welding. Other manu facturers forge them in halves and
then weld them.
They extend Overland drop forgings to steering connections,
control levers, crank shafts, camshafts, gear blanks and hundreds
of other parts.
The Overland Model 69T is high-priced in everything but price.
In no other line can you buy so many high grade features for $985

where else. Let us send you Overland literature to bear out these

The Sunshade That
Looks Like a Hat.
LA CAPRICE PARASOL.
"La Caprice" is a chic little affair
that is going to be a favorite model
this summer On a stick of ebony is
mounted the cover of American Beau
ty flowered silk, and the extension top
is a very modish new feature.
BALKAN BLOUSES.
Quite the Latest Effects In the New
Waists.
The blouse of cotton crape, voile or
some similar soft, clinging cotton stuff
with a touch of vivid color is a feature
of the new season. These models are
called Balkan blouses and reflect the
influence which the present war in
Europe is having on feminine costume,
for Balkan frocks, blouses and hats
are all the rage in Paris now. For the
tidy price of $12 or $13 may be picked
up a veritable bijou of a Balkan blouse
made of Frencb cotton crape with all
edges bound with red or green silk
braid and a small braid bound breast
pocket embroidered gayiy to match.
A flaring directoire collar, also braid
bound, and groups of gay buttons down
the front, and there you are. not much
to show foT your $13 perhaps in the
way of fabric and trimming, but be
hold the chic and the "line," as the
deft Sales person in the little blouse
shop will assure you. Some of these
Balkans have gay Turkish neckties of
crimson or purple silk embroidered in
contrasting hues. These ties are drawn
softly under the rolling collar and knot
ted fonr-in-hand style, the long ends
passing under buttonholed slashes in
the front of the blouse and then fall
ing free to the waist line. One of these
Balkan blouses made of dotted white
cotton crape and bound at the front,
sleeve and collar edgas with green silk
braid was noted the other morning at
a fashionable hotel, the blouse being
worn with a smart new tailleur of
mixed black and white worsted stuff
and a black mil an straw turban.

At the close of one of the sessions in

speeches of Fox and Sheridan, but say
ing not a word about Burke's. Burke,
sensitive at tbis omission and anxious
for some commendation from the great
authority, could at last contain himself
no longer and burst out:
"Doctor, didn't yon like my speech?"
"No. Edmund." replied Dr. Parr,
calmly eying his excited questioner.
"Your speech was oppressed with met

L TO PROBE
TELEPHONE RATES
Last summer the attention of the
council was called, by F. J. Tooze. to
tiie fact that the Pacific Telephone
& Telegraph Company was charging
two different rates for the same ser
vcei, that is, for four-party residence
line some patrons were being charg
ed $1.50 and others ?1.25 a month,
and upon motion of the above named
councilman, Mayor Dimick appoint,1-
ed Mr. Tooze chairman and Messrs.
Horton and Holman a committee to
investigate and report this charge.
About 20 cities of Oregon where gen
eral conditions are practically the
same were written to and data of
rates obtained which showed in com
parison that the rate of $1.50 for
four-party lines here were too high.
The company, through its represen
tatives, at once began a series of
counter movements, which would, if
successful, counteract the efforts ot
the council committee. Among other
things the company, through its at
torney, questioned the right of the
city to regulate the prices, and in
this the City Attorney agreed that
there might be, under the wording ot
the icharter, merit. The committee,
however, determined to go ahead and
had an ordinance drafted for the pur
pose of securing a uniform rate of
fl.25 for everybody.

ordinance was vigorously apposed by
the company's attorney, C. D. Lat
ourette, Manager Hall and other offi
cials of the company. Mr. Tooze
warmly contested, against discrimina
tion whereby one man was made to,
pay one price and another man a
higher price for exactly the same ser
vice, and for the passing of the or
dinance. More time was finally grant
ed, however, to the local manager
and attorney to bring in additional
evidences that the rates in Oregon
ies. This the management failed to
satisfactorily do, but the delay prov
ed a shrewd move for the company,
and at the election November 5, the
people of the state provided a Public
Utility Commission, whose duty it is
lu aujusi laico pub vjxi puuiiv uiiuiic;o,
including telephones.
At the succeeding meeting of the
council the company's representa
tives, including their attorney, main
tained that the matter should go ' to
the commission, and the contention
of the chairman of the committee
that the council should pass the or
dinance as a declaration of discrim
ination and to file the same at once
with the commission, was not sustain
ed by the majority of the councilmen
present Here the company, through
its representatives, succeeded in again
sidetracking the council and the or
dinance was not passed, and the com
mittee went Out of existence as such.
The people are still paying the same
old discriminating' rates. Two weeks
ago after consultation with the city
attorney Mr. Tooze again moved that
the Mayor appoint a committee of
thee from the council to place the evi
dence gathered by himself and such
additional evidence as can be obtain
ed here ot the discriminations and
to demand at once that such discrim
inations shall cease.
The motion carried. ; Wednesday
night the Mayor appointed . Tooze,
