Does not this indicate the importance of maintaining a de pendable standard in any product, the distribution of which takes place through the ttreat department stores? "You. ' gentlemen, who influence the thought of many thousands througn your house organs, have a great op portunity to assist in the carrying on of the great work undertaken by your National vigilance committee by preach ing in your publications the principles for which it stands, and by criticising its conduct direct to the National chair- man when you in any way disagree. "So far as I know, history does not record a moral crusade that did not bring down criticism upon the heads of the crusaders from sources in which the cleansing was most needed. "So, in closing, permit me to say, not only should you preach, practice and police truth ln advertising, but main- tain in your product the greatest de pendability and, no matter how great your success, remember tnat oepenaa bility is not only moral but profitable."

The trials were successful in proving that the machine flies fast, is well-balanced and is handled almost as easily as a flying boat of less than half its size and weight. Flights were made by Glenn H. Curtiss, Lieutenant John C. Porte and George Hallett, ail of whom expressed themselves as well pleased with her behavior. 'So far as the trials went the boat did what we expected ft to do, said Mr. Curtiss. "Our big problem, how ever, lies in raising another 1600 pounds from the water. When we have done 1 that I shall be glad to be enthusiastic. Before we attempt to fly the machine fully loaded I intend to add some auxiliary water planes now in course of construction. Today's trials give me reason to hope we have made no mistake in our calculations.'

From Shotgun Wound, Aged Man Staggers Mile to Home . of Friend Robbery Only Mo- . tlve Given for Attack. HTT.T.SBORO, Or, June 23. (Special.) An attempt to murder F, M. Wood cock, a horseman aged TO, of 972 Cor- bett street, Portland, was made on Gales Creek at noon today by an un identified person who fired a shotgun from ambush as Woodcock was fish ing. Although painfully wounded, phy sicians say they believe he will re cover. Robbery Is the motive officers assign for the attack. Earl McCoy, aged 18, who lives near the scene, is held for Investigation. The charge which was from a num ber six shell, entered between Mr. Woodcock's shoulder blades and then passed into the base of the skull. It carried away the scalp from the nape of his neck to the top of his head. Per sons investigating the shooting, say it is certain that had he been standing, his bead would have been blown off, as the shot was fired from a distance of but 35 feet- Eis hat was blown off into the creek and could not be found. Mr. Woodcock left Portland yester day and arrived at the home of Fred Wilson, his friend, late in the after noon. He started on a fishing trip this morning. He fished down Gales Creek until he came to the ranch of Elijah McCoy, a pioneer residing 10 miles from Forest Grove. . Shot Fired aa Victim' Stoops. Finding a boy, Orville McCoy, aged 12, fishing, be had him catch peri winkles. The boy soon left for tn house and Mr. Woodcock moved down the stream on the opposite bank from the McCoy houses, three in number. As he stooped to bait his hook, Mr. Woodcock says he felt a crashing the shoulders and head and at first be lieved he had been struck by light ning. He fell and, as he heard the gun report, realized he had been shot. "Who is shooting me?" he says b cried. There was no answer, but he says h heard some one running away in the underbrush. Mr. Woodcock staggered through the bottoms to the bench land and reached the Wilson home, a mile distant, in about an hour. He was bleeding pro fusely. The place of the shooting is in thick wood of firs and it is said that a person standing on the river bank could hardly penetrate the gloom of the Interior. Mr. Woodcock stood by a stump on the bank of the stream and a distance of 25 feet was entirely clear of the underbrush. Officers say there is no possible chance for a hunter to have mistaken Mr. Woodcock for an animal. Sheriff i'uts Boy tn Jail. Sheriff Reeves went to the scene and after an investigation brought Karl McCoy to Hillsboro and placed him in the County Jail. Young McCoy is now under- parole on a Circuit Court in determinate sentence to the peniten tiary on a charge of forging his fath er's name to a check. He will be held until the shooting affair Is thoroughly investigated. McCoy told seveaal stories in con nection with the day's events, and the officers say they are satisfied that he knows who did the shooting. Fred Woodcock, a son, is a trainer at the Portland Country Club. Mr. Woodcock made a special request tonight that no news of the shooting be sent his wife and son, as he did not want to have them alarmed.
