Having been notified by St. Vincent's Hospital that no cases of infantile paralysis will be taken there. City Health Officer Wolf yesterday asked the City Council to provide an isola tion hospital, where cases of this dis ease may be taken. The Council au thorized Mayor Albee to buy a two room portable house, which can be erected in case of need. Dr. Wolf said he would be in a serious predicament if a case of the disease should come into Portland on a train and none of the hospitals would take it. He says there' may be no need or the proposed detention place, but it is best to have it in case of emergency.

DISTRICT IS ORGANIZED Committee, However, Anticipates New Plan Will Bo About as Advantageous as System Xow in Voijue There. MEDFORD, Or, Sept. 20. (Special.) Apparently the local rural credits committee appointed to confer with the Federal farm loan board does not anti cipate any great Benefit to the Rogue River Valley, from' the passage of this measure. E. H. Hurd, secretary of the local committee which had a long- conference with the visiting- committeemen, has published a detailed report with the following conclusion, "We believe that the various safeguards will make for the loaning of money undr at least as favorable terms as are now possible." As Mr. Hurd is an ardent Democrat, this is regarded as slight praise for the practical benefits of the rural credits law. The report continues that the only crumb of comfort for the orchard man is the fact that orchard, land which brings a high return per acre might possibly be considered as worth not $200 to $250 but 300 to $400 an acre. The concKisions of the local com mittee follow: That the county be divided for the pres ent into tho following districts: 1. Eagle Point, north and east, including Upper Roguo River, Butte Creek. 2. Sams Valley, Gold Hill and contiguous territory. ' , a. Applegate and tributaries. . . Ashland and vicinity. 5. Talent and vicinity. 6. East of Phoenix and along Bear Creek and southeast Medford. 7. West of Phoenix, southwest Medford to be called Griffin Creek. 8. West of Central Point, including north, west Medford. etc., as Willow Springs. 9. Central Point and vicinity. 10. Bear Creek and east of Central Point to Sticky. - That a committee of one be appointed in each district to hasten this work by securing the co-operation of hla neighbors. That after the petitions are all prepared and prior to their being sent in to the dla. trict land bank for action, that a Joint meeting of the representatives of these several proposed local units meet to go over boundaries in -detail to ascertain what, if any, changes are needed to make them successful, as it can he done easier before a charter la granted the local organization.

A verdict for $8780.69 -was awarded the town of Seaside in a suit agralnst the Oregjon Surety tt Casualty Company, by a jury In the court of Circuit Judge Morrow yesterday. At a former trial of the case the Jury found for the defendant. Judgre Morrow set aside their verdict, and was upheld by the Supreme Court. The action was to collect principal and interest of money due on the bond Be Careful in Using Soap on Your Hair Most soaps .and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali, which Is very Injurious, as It dries the scalp and makes the balr brittle. The best thin? to use Is Just plain mulsified coeoanut oil. for It Is pure and entirely grreasless. It's very cheap, and beats the most expensive soaps or anything; else all to pieces. Tou can cjet this at any drugstore, and a few ounces will last the whole family for months. Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in. about a teaspoonful is all that Is required. It makes an abun dance of rich, creamy lather, cleanses thoroughly and rinses out easily. The hair dries quiokly and evenly, and Is soft, fresh looking bright, fluffy, wavy, and easy to handle. Besides, it loosens and takes out every particle of iufit, dirt and dandruff. Adv. Quality OUT OF $56,000,000 JUST $250,000 IS SPENT IN FINAL TESTS TO MAKE DOUBLY SURE YOUR CHALMERS IS RIGHT DEAD RIGHT This 856,000,000 "run" on the 3400 r. p. m. Chalmers has not stam peded the Chalmers factory. Quite the contrary. The cars are coming out of there so fhre, so exact, so thoroughly tested, that all we have to do no-vr "when tre take them off the freight cars is to pour in oil, gas and water, run them a few miles and deliver. There's an excellent reason for this condition. The Chalrners-Cxmrparry has a young army of eagle-eyed inspectors who take great pride in finding a fault in a car when it comes out of the plant. This costs just $250,000 a year in cold cash just one quarter -of nanl lion dollars a year to "catch the little things.''. IN firmly believe that most factories would let wgohysmTO.ars-anf ten that the Chalmers inspectors waylay. It sounds like a lot of money, but when a coTxrpany maintains -the elogzm of "Quality First" and bases a 856)00,000 business -on the-cpxality idea then it becomes quite clear. I firmly believe that three times 6250,000 is returutI'TXrthe -h:dra3tcg of the Chalmers Company every year through such a policy. It certainly makes selling a Chalmers car anything but a dlfficnllznatXEE And that accounts for the "run" on the car. For run" it enrely ig, I am handling from three to five times as many Gahrrex-arsstlii3 territory ever absorbed before. Last November the Chalmers Dealers' bought $220OOOOurtlivt30O r. p. m.

Now 20,000 more are coming through That means that this model will be continped'witlitiut-iaiqH 'ftti rSre-W into next season. It also means a $5 6, 000,000 business. Which is twice-anoxe-han-theixxost optimistic Chalmers executive ever dared dream. The quality in the car is the answer.
