Every operation on every part and every assembly of parts
of an Overland Model 69T is rigidly inspected at each step in the
progress of the car's creation.
m
After the parts are thorou ghly completed and machined ready
for assembly they are tested to determine physical properties
pertaining to tensile strength, elasticity, hardness, ductility, size,
shape, angularity, etc.
All gears are tested not only for dimensions, but also as to
bores and centers. Each sing le cylinder is accurately gauged, thus
assuring interchangeability.
Every camsliaft is tested out by means of more special testing
equipment. And so it is with every part .which goes in the Model
69T.
Such high priced workman ship is available in the Overland
Model 69T for $985 f. o. b. fac tory only because we make 40,000
a year.

R PRICES SURE
TO BE SATISFACTORY
While the trade in mohair contin
ues on a very narrow scale, owing to
the fact that but little shearing has
been done in this state, the market
is conceded to be firm in tone. Buy
ers are said to be taking all the hair
they can get at 32 cents, f. o. b.
country shipping points in the valley,
which would seem to indicate that
they are not seriously alarmed over
the prospect for drastic changes in
the tariff. Other factors of import
ance in the mohair trade are the war
in which Turkey is involved, and
which may .affect seriously the out
put of that country; the prospect for
a considerable shortage in the South
American output; the generally strong"
markets in Europe and the steadily
growing demand for mohair and mo
hair manufactures of all kinds in this
country. One of the Oregon dealers
expressed the belief that the Oregon
market would go to 38 or 40"-cents
before the end of the selling season.

Talks
By JAMES A. EDGERTON
CHARACTER.
We have all of us known women
whose lives sweetened and beautified
all with whom they came in contact
Perhaps it was a mother or a wife,
perhaps only a neighbor.
There was no preaching about it,
possibly little of reproof or admoni
tion- Yet her unselfishness made all
less selfish, her graciousness made all
more gracious.
Such a life is a light set upon a hill.
Its influence none can measure. To
many it may prove a suggestion, a
hope, an inspiration, who. never men
tion the fact Possibly they do not
even recognize it at the time. Yet the
good work is done.
The writer has in mind one such.
Her name does not here matter. To
give it might seem personal.
This woman has a husband and six
children, to whom she faithfully ministers.
Yet. though her time is so fully oc
cupied, this does not prevent her from
being a present help in time of trou
ble to her neighbors.
We will call this lady Mrs. B. be
cause that is not the initial of her
name.
Recently one of Mrs. B.'s neighbors
was at death's door. The doctors had
little hope.
The neighbor's three little children
were taken into Mrs. B.'s home, who
had ample mother love for three more.
After being at the very doorway of
the other country the neighbor began .
almost miraculously to recover. She
herself believed it was through the
prayers and, helpful suggestions of
Mrs. B., but she was admonished to
tell no one.
At about the same time another
neighbor fell ill, and Mrs. B. also wait
ed upon her.
All three women belong to the same
church. The following Sunday the
minister prayed not only for the sick,
but for those attending them and tell
ing them simply of God as an ever
present help.
' No one had any doubt as to- whom
was meant.
During all her labors Mrs. B. found
dme to attend to her church duties, to
her little clubs and to be interested in
the affairs of her town and the outside
world.
"I was sick and ye visited ma"
There are saints in our common life.
They make their whole communities
richer and better for their presence.
"Let your light so shine."
The beauty of all this is that I per
sonally know every word of It to be
true. -Daggers
aa Money.
In old Japan daggers were used as
money. They did not seem to find it
hard determining the value of the va
rious weapons, and the metal was prac
tical and substantial and lasted Indefi
nitely. South African Explosives.
South Africa not only supplies itself
with explosives, but exports dynamite
In large . quantities to Australia and
the east. The saving to Australian
mines by this means is estimated to
be f 125.000 a year.
Good
form
iThe Dining Table. .
A little talk, my friends, today- on
placing things onthe dining table for
the ordinary little dinner. There is a
right and easy way, and if it be ob
served every day it will become a hab
it and will be right for any larger din
ner and always in the accepted form
for the chance visitor. It is well to
emphasize the importance of giving
your best, even to. the family. Mari
ners soon grow into second nature and
are worth far more if they are man
ners of the everyday, polished kind and
natural. The company manners never
yet fooled any one with a worth while
grasp on the things that count. Sun
day and holiday manners that are put
on like special party frocks and laid
aside ' again are never worth the
trouble necessary for the deception.
Even the dining table comes under .this
rule.
The. immaculate napery is one of the
most important part of setting things
on the table. Silver and brilliant cut
glass will never outshine a coffee stain
or a soiled centerpiece. Since napery
must be washed it pays to do it regu
larly and well. "
A fern dish or a flat dish of flowers
always brightens the dining table and
should be a regular thing. The family
is just as good as company, you know.
On the table before the food in jts
dishes is placed should be put clean
napkins at each place. At the right,
for a dinner, should pe the knife for
cutting meat, the soup1 spoon, the spoon
for dessert and the small coffee spoon.
Two forks at the left are used, the
larger one being the regular dinner
fork and the smaller one the salad
fork, if the salad is to be a separate
course. Two forks can be used other
wise, but: they are not necessary.
In front of each place to the right
should be a glass for water, and it must
be kept filled. No apology for a scald
ed throat should ever be relied on and
can never excuse carelessness in re
gard to water glasoes.
At the left and in front of the plate
should be the small bread and butter
plate, on which the butter spread a
small wide blade knife is placed.
This plate usually has the piece of
butter on it before the diners are seat
ed. It should be replenished as soon
as empty.
Small butter dishes are used by some
at formal dinners. In England butter
and bread are rarely served with full
course dinners. There is a tendency
here to do as the English do.
Sometimes a dinner plate is placed
merely as a "serving plate." On this
the cups of bouillon or'tbe soup plates
can be placed and removed when fin
ished. It also holds the oyster plate
and is finally removed before the din
ner plate is served.
The salad plate with a small por-.
tion of salad can be put at the left of
each place or can be served separate
ly after the main part of the meal.
Coffee in small cups should be served
with the dessert or last. It comes in
this part of the meal for a good rea
Bon it aids digestion when taken
black.
Needless to say, the table should be
kept -"erumbe-i" or cleaned between
courses if the dinner be conducted in
that way. If a simple meal, with
salad on the table, be the plan, all
crumbs, celery tips, used dishes, etc.,
should be removed before the dessert
is served.
A small serving table Jielps greatly
in the home dinner. On this clean
plates, the water pitcher, the extra
courses and the covered vegetable
dishes can be kept and it can also
hold used dishes, thus doing away
with the many trips of the hostess if
there be no maid..
This Is a plain story of the dining
table. It is easily carried out and
will help you to understand more in
tricate and formal arrangements.
which are based on these fundamental
Ideas.
Cards of Condolence.
When any accident happens to a
friend or acquaintance or when the.
bereavement is a death, cards of con
dolence should be sent either by mail
or left in person. This is a very easy
way to express sympathy if you are
not on intimate terms or if it is In
convenient to call. .
Sometimes a brief expression of sym
pathy is inscribed in - pencil on the
cards. It is better form to write noth
ing on them. '
A husband and a wife can leave two
of their joint cards or two each of their
separate cards. One set Is intended
for the parents and one for the rest of
the family..
When a gentleman loses his wife or
a woman her husband a set of single
visiting cards or -one joint card is re
quired from a married couple. If there
are grownup children they are given
a second set or a second joint card.
By "set" I mean a card of the hus
band's and one of the wife's.
Friends of a married woman who has
lost one parent should send a card of
condolence to her and to the surviving
parent.
In a family of orphans cards are left
for the eldest. You see. the plan is
quite simple. The heads of the house
are the recipients of cards.
Never send a black bordered card un
less you vourself are in mourning.

PLAYGROUNDS TO BE
ASKED OF COUNCIL
(Continued from Page 1.)
who instists that children be prevent
ed from skating on the sidewalks,
said Friday night that at the next
meeting of the council he would urge
that a playground be provided. Mr.
Albright says that he wants the child
ren to have all the fun possible, but
insists that a city ordinance proaib
its skatfhg on the sidewallis
be enforced. In this he is
opposed by other councilmeu, m
cluding Councilman Holman, wlo de
clares the ordinance does not relate
to skating. The Woman's Club and
several citizens also have taken up
the fight for the children. '
"The children gather in crowds of
50 or more," said Mr. Albright. "Mind
you I am not opposed to their play
ing on the streets, but they injure
the parkings and yards. Many of
them skate on walks in private yards.
I have been classed as a child hater,
but the charge is not true and to prove
this at the next meeting of the coun
cil I will introduce an ordinance pro
viding that the council appropriate a
few hundred dollars for swings to be
placed in MlcLoughlin Park and a
skating platform to be erected at the
north end of this park. This is pub
lic property and the children have as
much right to it as any other persons.
It will be a fine place to play and the
children will be in no danger of ve
hicles as they are on the streets, and
their parents will not be alarmed
about them'
Mr. Albright says that the members
of the Woman's Club, with whom he
has "conferred, favor his plan of es
tablishing a playground. However, un
less a playground is provided there
is no doubt that the plan to keep the
children from skating on the side
walks will be fought vigorously, a ma
jority of the residents being in favor
of allowing the children to enjoy
themselves wherever they please in
the public thoroughfares.
TOLLIES' TO BE GIVEN
FOR FLOOD VICTIMS
For the benefit of the flood suffer
ers in Ohio and Indiana the Port
land Theatres Managers' Association
will repeat their "1912 Follies", in-"
eluding the travesty on "East Lynne",
at the Heilig Theatre tonight. Seats
will be sold at $1 each. All expense
will be eliminated, so that the oniire
proceeds may go to relieve the suffer
ing. . .
The actor folk, ever generous to
the unfortunate, will "donate their
turns again, and the other theatre
managers will do their part5 too.
' Many of those who saw the "Fol
lies" Thursday night will, go again.
For those who did not see it, to
night will be their last chance,
and should not be missed.
The "Follies" offers good entertain
ment you can't get in any other way.
It comes but once a year. One dol
lar spent for the '"Follies' show to
night will not only afford one a gen
erous value of fun, but will give that
greatest happiness which comes from
lending a helping hand to an unfor
tunate man, woman or child.
Seats now selling, and every ent
goes to the flood refugees. "
