SANDY AFTER AUTO TRAVEL
Mount Hood Tourists to Be Invited
to TTse Bluff Road.
SANDY, Or., Feb. 27. (Special.)
On suggestion of Paul R. Meinig, presi
dent of the Sandy Commercial Club,
that bodv will undertake to induce
automobile parties on the way to Mount
Hood from Portland to go by way of
the Bluff road from Pleasant Home and
Sandy.
Mr. Meinlg's plan is to post sign,
boards between Sandy and Portland
calling attention to the Bluff road. In
stead of turning to the right at Pleas
ant Home automobllists to travel by
the Bluff turn southeasterly, going
through Cottrell and to the bluff above
the Sandy River, where the road has
been improved recently. The road fol
lows the edge of the Sandy bluff for
several miles,-and affords a fine vie.
there will be ever so much tact and
hard work needed.
A few hammers, a few nails, some
grocery boxes, maybe a package of
kalsomine to brighten things up that
will bo about all the outlay, but the
actual work that will be the thing
that counts.
Prizes will be offered for the boys
who make the best window boxes.
Front yards a s
well as back yards
will be cleaned up.
Rose slips will be
planted. Gates that
hang on but one
hinge will be
straightened. Back
steps, that are
broken will be
mended all these
things will happen
if the plans go
righ t.

said one of the
women yesterday, in recounting the
plans of the civic committee, "but there
is too much talk, without any action."
This crusade will be the exception.
The women are going to do what they
think it needed, if
they hammer their
fingers and thumbs
and get blisters on
their hands in the
attempt. But tbey
are determined that
they will be help
ful, practical and
sensible about their
efforts, and that
before Rose Festi

be no unsightly

Time for Registration Is Run
ning By.
HOURS ARE 8 A. M. TO 6 P. M.
Business Men Reminded That I'inal
Says Bring Inevitable Rush of
Procrastinators and Only 25
Per Cent Are Enrolled.
Say, are you registered? No? Well,
don't you know you cannot vote in
the forthcoming primaries May 19
unless your name is on the registra
tion polls? This means you, and you
and you, if you are not on that list yet.
The longer you put off this- duty the
more difficult it will be towards the
last days In which registration is al
lowed. In fact, the time limit closes
April 19. That is a little more than
a month and a half. During the clos
ing days, however, there is always a
rush, and everybody knows what that
means delay for the late ones and
even harassraents of many sorts
waiting in line to attend to a matter
that might have been discharged with
out annoyance earlier.
The registration polls contain now
approximately 20,500 names, as against
nearly 100,000 for Portland two years
ago. This indicates that less than 25
per cent of the voters here have quali
fied to cast ballots in the primaries
and later in the general election. On
the rolls Thursday night, when The
clerks last counted up and reported to
County Clerk Coffey, there had been
registered 14,927 Republicans, 423S
Democrats, 624 Independents, 197 Pro
gressives, 313 Prohibitionists and 218
Socialists; total, 20,517.
The registration office, in the base
ment of the Courthouse on the Fifth
street side, is open every day, except
Sunday, from 8 A. M. to 6 P. M. There
are enough clerks there to accommo
date all who desire to register. County
Clerk Coffey desires to emphasize the
