FRANZ COMPANY U. B. Conference Notes Rev. J. B. Parsons and 1'. O. Hone brake were delegates from Hood Kiv er to the United Brethren Conference at Tillamook last week and the fol lowing paragraphs are clipped from the Tillamook Herald: Dr. P. O. Bonebrake and J. B. Par sons were elected Trustees of the Oregon Anti-Saloon league and a resolution was passed adopting the program of the Anti-Saloon League for the repeal of the so-called Home Rule amendment to the Constitution in 1914 and an amendment to the Constitution for Prohibition in lf'16. P.O. Bonebrake has the "honorable" distinction of the conference, being a member of the state legislature for the third successive time and a mem ber of some of its most important committees. Much of the splendid legislative work of the last session owes no little to his support. He lives at Hood River. After hearing this morning the first of the lectures by Parsons, of Hood River, we were glad that we would be privileged to hear the rest of the series. PEACH CROP DAMAGED News comeg from Orenco, Oregon, peach leaf curl has seriously affected the peach crop throughout the coun ty. It is reported that thousands of peach trees throughout Washington county have been affected and that the treeg thus blighted will yield no- hing this season.

It is also observed that not only peaches are affected by this disease, but that numerous pear, cher ry and apple tree8 are also afflicted. JOHN GERDES HONORED John Gerdes of Brooklyn, N.

It can make or mar the happines9 of a life or of a home. It should be closely guarded. The saying of one unkind or selfish thing makes the next easier, and so on, until a habit Is formed that can never be entirely overcome. Id v. i'. M.

It was the first time he had ever required an Abstract. He had an opportu nity to make an investment which gave promise of rich returns. It was an unusual chance. He had no ready money so he had gone to his bank to get it by placing a mortgage upon his land. The bank, according to its custom demanded an Abstract and r ferred him to us. Now tin man hail lived on this land. He had paid good money for It. He held' a Warranty Deed. He thought it was his. It was, but there was a "Cloud upon the Title" which had to be clear ed before he could obtain any money upon his land. There were defects in the instruments as recorded which could be remed;. ( only by a decree of th- Court. This required time. Mean while the opportui.ity for the promis ing investini nt. had passed. This is not fi"ion. It is not even exceptional.

The business ! has been a record-breaker this spring, says the reporter. Lok F.verybody likes to look right and when it costs practical nothing, everybody ought to. 1 he cost of cleaning your clothes is really nothing when you consider they will wear enough longer to more than cover the cleaning cost. Few garments are actually worn out they become soiled and are laid aside but if sent to the cleaner their usefulness is often doubled. When one once gets started sending his clothes to the dry cleaner he never quits - he finds it pays, and "gets the habit." I lave you got it? Out-of-town business receives prompt at tention.
