THE HOOD RIVER NEWS, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 1, 1911 7 IT IS NOT ALWAYS PURE LUCK that tells where to make a good investment. Good luck may be a factor in making a wise decision, but by comparison it is not weighed in the balance with good judgment. Good Judgment Is JVot Hindsight; It's Foresight Perhaps you did not get in on some of the following investments by reason of an over-abundance of hindsight. $100 invested in stock of Munsey's fiagazine a the right time would now pay you a monthly income of $100 and have a cash value of $12,000. $1000 in this stock would have made you independently rich. $100 invested in Bell Telephone stock at the right time would be worth over $200,000. These are only two instances of where some one must have used foresight, and yet we can name dozens of propositions that have paid as well as these or better. We are proving each day that the old saying, that "a prophet is not without honor save in his own country" does not apply to THE OREGON APPLE COMPANY OF HOOD RIVER, for the sale of its preferred stock is meeting with in stant success and that too with OREGON PEOPLE.

ATJHE DALLES The Dalles Chronicle states that! the engineers are now busily engaged In mapping out the new sewer sys-! tern for the city aud as soon as the 1 plans are adopted, In about a month, the council will again le ready to, consider street paving. The mayor and council had a hard ; time getting the paving ball rolling two years ago, but now that the property holders know how fine the! hltullthtc Improvement Is, they are taking the Initiative and Instead of some of them fighting street pave-! meut they are clamoring for It. A comparison of Second, Third ! aud Fourth street with the muddy! cross thoroughfares which are not paved, a contrast which citizens can not help but see exemplified every day, explains the "change of heart." Another boost for the cause of pav Ing was the council' choice of ma terial, bltullthlc. Thl has given fine satisfaction and t o years use has already demonstrated that It Is dur able, cheap In the long run, not as slippery as most hard-surface pave ment and of pleasing appearance.
