A. I Clark was awarded a contract
on his bid of $11,S80.50.
All were low bidders on the Jobs
awarded them. Mr. Kern's bids on his
three contracts were regarded as espe
cially low. He not only underbid his
competitors, but did not count In the
cost of slashing and grubbing out
sumps necessary on much of the right
of way before grading work can be
started. This time alone was esti
mated by some of the other bidders at
as high as $8000.
Mr. Kern was lowest by about $32,000
on the three bids taken together.

Mount Hood Road Deferred.
After a conference with George H.
Cecil. United States District Forester
at Portland, it was mutually agreed, in
connection with the Joint state and
Federal forest road programme, that
work this year should be confined to
roads the building of which will be of
real economio value. Scenic roads will
be delayed until lifter. The Mount Hood
loop road was eliminated from further
consideration this - year, as it is a
scenic road only.
The commission decided to pave Im
portant trunk roads 16 feet wide In
stead of 12 feet, as provided in con
tracts awarded a week ago. The con
tractors will be paid the same as ar
ranged under the contracts, but the
length of road paved will be corre
spondingly less.
The loss of paving mileage caused in
this manner will be made up for the
present with gravel, which will make
a good foundation later on for pave
ment.
A delegation from Tillamook County
made the proposal to the commission,
which accepted it, to pay for the addi
tional four-foot width if the commis
slon would authorize 16-foot pavement
there instead of only 12 feet.

PORTLAND Is looking forward to
the big benefit lawn fete that Is
being planned by Mrs. A. A. Mor
rison for the relief of the little chil
dren of Italy who are suffering from
the ravages of the rapidly-spreading
disease, tuberculosis. The fete has
been set for Tuesday, August 7, from
4 to 6 o'clock.
It will be a public affair, a society
affair, a patriotic affair, one that Is
meant to appeal to every loyal citizen,
every friend of the allies. The lawn
in front of Trinity Rectory will be the
scene of the fete. Mrs. J. D. Farrell
will be assistant to Mrs. Morrison, who
is chairman of the committee.
One of the great attractions of the
day will be the programme. Tom Dob
son, heralded from New Tork as one
of America's most gifted singers, will
sing a group of songs. lnis- will De
his first appearance in Portland since
is return from the East. Mr. Dobson
heard the plea for help for the little
ufferers of Italy and decided to set
aside all rules and regulations and
ng notwithstanding the fact that he
is here to rest after a busy and bril
liantly successful seerson.
Another feature of the programme
will be some solos by Miss Leah Cohen,
whose splendid voice has won her rec
ognition in New York City. Mr. Dob
son will play Miss Cohen's accompani
ments. Mr. Dobson when a young boy
was a member of the choir at Trinity
Church and for several years carried
the cross at the head of the proces-
onal. The announcement that he and
Miss Cohen both will appear, the com
mittees feel sure, will be sufficient
charm to attract a large gathering of
loyal Portlanders eager to hear the
home folk who have made good.
The interest of Mrs. Morrison was
Inspired by a letter received from Miss
Susan N. Clark, a former Portland
girl, now residing In Italy. Miss
Clark's father was president of the
North Bank Railroad and the family
lived here for several years and the
young woman has many friends. Mar
coni, the great inventor, has donated
the use of his offices for the cause of
the tubercular children and the money
will be sent either to him or to Miss
Clark. "Villa Le Lagore, Levanto.
In her last letter to Mrs. Morrison
Miss Clark speaks of the "higher duty
that has come to Americans, to fight
and work for coming generations and
the future of all civilization.
Miss Clark speaks of tuberculosis as
the "terrible disease that Is the ruina
tion o the country and a new prob
lem to be faced immediately. "I have
taken upon myself the task and priv
ilege of appealing to the cities of the
West," Miss Clark writes. "I know
these cities and it was my privilege
and pleasure to witness and appreciate
their greatness." She tells how all the
headquarters have been given over to
soldiers and the little sick children
have no place in which to receive care.
It is the cry of these little ones tnat
has reached the hearts of the Port
land friends of Miss Clark and It is
for their sakes that an all-ally lawn
"W
HEXEVER there Is big work
to be done, -the leading
men of the country rely upon the
loyalty and Integrity of the women."

HowTo Overcome
Foot Troubles
Unless a person has actually suffered
with tired, aching, burning feet or
painful corns or calluses, they cannot
appreciate the misery that such afflic
tions bring.
Reports now show that over 90 per
cent of the American people suffer
from some form of foot troubles and
modern footwear Is said to bo causing
an alarming Increase in this percent
age. Therefore, the following should
prove of special Interest to readers.
Recently In the treatment of these
foot troubles by patients using Ice
Mint, these distinctive features were
noticeable. Tired, aching, burning and
swollen feet invariably become cool,
easy and comfortable after the first
application, while in the treatment of
corns and calluses, it was noticed that
after a few nights' application, the
corn or callus had a tendency to loosen,
and in a short time could easily be lift
ed out with the fingers root and all
leaving the surrounding skin in nor
mal, healthy condition.
This, together with the fact that Ice
Mint costs little and is so easy and
pleasant to apply and is absolutely
harmless is no doubt responsible for
the high endorsement given it by Spe
cialists as the surest, safest and most
efficacious treatment for distressing
foot troubles.
When you stop to consider that the
simple, pleasant process of rubbing a
little Ice-Mint on the foot at night will
shortly rid one of every painful corn or
callus, and will keep the feet cool, com
fortable and rested even on the hottest
days, it is easy to understand Its great
popularity and why it is now used in
nearlv every American home. Anyone
suffering from foot troubles Is advised
to give Ice-Mint a trial. There is noth
ing better. Adv.
