PROCEEDINGS OF THE CITY COUNCIL Humane society recommended the, paving of the business section with oiled macadam. The recommenda tion was referred to the street com mittee.

Detroit Fire Department Buys Twelve Carter Cars Again the Detroit Fire Department has placed a repeat order with the Cartcrcar Company for more cars to be used by the Itatalllon Chief In re spondlng to tires throughout the en tire city. This time t lit order Is larger and tietter than ever as twelve Model K Koadsters are to be deliver ed as soon as possible. The Detroit Fire Department was one of the first In the country to adopt motor cars for general use In the department. Fight years ago they purchased a Cartcrcar. A year later they bought another. Past year they ordered live more nnd now they are buying twelve In one lot. While this is the case, even the cars purchased seven and eight years ago are In dally use. An order like this coming from the Detroit Department on top of the one secured a few weeks ago from the Fire Department of Milwaukee for seven cars, gives a pretty good Idea of what the mechanical and maintenance divisions of this branch of the city service thinks of the Car tcrcar. The unusual simplicity of the friction transmission and the ab sence of complicated parts makes the Cartcrcar especially desirable for work where reliability plays so I in portant a part. When all of this new equipment of Cartercars has been delivered, the Ivtrolt department will undoubtedly be Is'Kt equipped and most up-to- date of any In tliecountry. The cars will Ik" regular Model K Koadsters In every respect except that they will lie finished In the bright red used by all lire departments. J. F. Voi.si'ohi-, Agent, Hood Klv er, Oregon. Notice!

NATURAL RUIT JAMSSUPERIOR That natural fruit Jams are far su perior to cooked jams is the opinion of ProfesssorC. 1. Iewls of the O. A.C. department of horticulture. He de scribes his method of preparing them ns follows: "Such fruits as red and black rasp berries and strawberries make the most delicious uncooked jam, and one can enjoy a very palatable short cakejn the middle of the winter nt very small expense. To prepare this jam, Ik1 sure first that your berries are sound. Throw out all soft, mouldy, or In any way decayed fruit. Tills is Imperative. Then mix equal amounts of sugar nnd fruit, ami crush the whole mixture carefully. Be sure that no IsTrles nreleft whole. "Before patting Into the jars, some people stir the fruit occnslounlly for several days to lie sure that the sugar ami fruit become thoroughly mixed. After the fruit and sugar are so mixed, put them Into fruit Jars I but do not seal them. The only I covering Hint should be given them Is a little paper to keep out dust. If. the Jars are sealed, the chances nrei that the fruit will spoil, but If left un sealed. It can Ik kept for some time. I have kept It for two years. j Ked and white currants treated this way make a delicious Jam. This In somewhat different from that known as sun dried jam. The sun-; dried jam Is cooked somewhat. In the natural jam the flavor of the fruit Is preserved." Kegular Sunday excursion to Putk dale. Pleasant trip for yourself an I friend. T Hurry, Fret and Worry Curse of Every American By the Rev. A EUGENE BART LETT of Chlcatfo 9 HMERICANS ARE GOOD WORKERS, BUT VERY POOR WAITERS. Tliev cleared the forests in a quick, wasteful way for tlieir first planting. Tliev did not stop for a careful survey before they laid out the streets in many an eastern city. They simply LET THE COWS LAY OUT THE PATHS and hastily made them afterward into streets. Because Americans are unwilling to wait for a properly finished product we have many things manufactured with little reference to quality. So many are asking IIOW CHEAP RATHER THAN IIOW GOOD, that there is always a market for the inferior goods sold at bargain prices. EVERYWHERE THROUGHOUT AMERICA WE SEE THE EVI DENCES OF HURRY. FEVER, FRET. MEN ARE IGNORING NATURAL PROCESSES. THEY ARE TEARING OPEN BUDS TO SEE WHY THE BLOSSOMS ARE SO SLOW IN COMING OUT. S. EI. BARTMESS Funeral Director and Practical Embalmer ESTABLISHED 18 YEARS MOOD RIVER, OREGON AVIATION MEET LARGELY ATTENDED The Hood Klver Heights baseball team and the Portland Brooklyn team had honors about equally di vided last Sunday in their aviation flights.
