Then Lizzie begins to hate the lie

the choice of her career, in which
she has achieved success, and the
privilege of being herself. She thinks
that Brett Pag is in love with the
temperamental actress rather than

dramatic denouement.

Survey Made Years Ago.
From Aagaard to Tillamook by al
most a direct line down the Wilson
river is a distance of approximately
35 miles. .
"The survey down the Wilson river
was made several years ago by the
Waahburn interests, who own the 1
tmall railroad. It would be this line
of survey that the Hill people would
doubtless follow in the construction
cf a road.
One thing that causes the Hill peo
ple to look with favor on the project
is the fact that by building a road
to Tillamook by way of the Wilson
river they would bring Tillamook
47 miles nearer Portland than it now
la Their competitor In the freight
and passenger traffic games would
be the Southern Pacific, but they feel
that they would have a decided ad
vantage due to a shorter haul.
Timber Would Be Accessible.
In addition to this, the road would
be used for the transportation o!
lumber In great quantities. The Trask
and the Rllchis river valleys con
tain great areas of valuable timber
and this would be made accessible by
the construction of the road.
The Hill people became more eager
to gain control of the Gales Creek &
Wilson Klver railroad when they
found that the Southern Pacific might
make an effort to purchase the line
and extend it to Tillamook. This
would give the Southern Pacific en
tire control of all of the timber to
the west of the summit of the coast
range In the Tiflamook district.
amounting to approximately 20 bil
lion feet. It Is estimated that there
Is more timber In the Nehalem and
Tillamook districts than in the entire
atate of Washington.
Difficult Task Is Faced.
Extension of the railroad from
Agnard to Tillamook would require
come difficult construction work. The
first 13 miles would be through rough
country and would require tunneling.
This, however, would- be overcome in
a measure, due to the fact that every
foot of the way is heavily timbered.
Arter the first 12 miles the Wilson
river valley is reached and there are
no great obstacles then.
Among the lumbermen who ows
tracts on the Wilson river there is
considerable talk regarding the pos
sibility of building the road. Some
are in favor of starting a movement
to raise funds to aid in the construc
tion. As conditions exist now, their
timber Is shut oft from the markets
because there are no adjacent rail
connections.

Washburn 'nterests here, -has long

Public Responds to Appeal for Aid ,
to Unemployed by Donating
Cast-Of f Articles. ,
Trucks that stood idle at the sal
vage headquarters of the American Red
Cross, public welfare bureau. Salva
tion Army and the mayor's unemploy
ment committee during the first part
of this week of salvage campaign
steamed into action yesterday when
the public apparently awakened to the
appeal made by these organizations
for old clothes, rags, shoes, bottles,
metal and other waste for use in rais
ing funds for relief of the unemployed.
The telephone at the salvage head
quarters began ringing yesterday
morning and donations began piling
In to the school houses and fire sta
tions and by noon every truck was
swamped with the work of transport
ing these donations to the public wel
fare bureau warehouse.
The various relief organizations re
ceiving the brunt of present conditions
of -unemployment and which will re
ceive the brunt of unemployment to
come when winter weather sets in,
sent out another appeal Wednesday
when it was apparent that the public
was not responding in a way that
would furnish funds of any amount.
The appeal had the effect of stirring
the public all over the city.
The public has been asked to bun
dle up all waste material they have in
their attics, basements and clothes
closets and deliver it to the nearest
fire station or schoolhouse, or to ask
Broadway 5923 for a truck or give the
bundle to the driver of any delivery
wagon of local department stores. All
of the waste so gathered will be as
sembled and disposed of to the best
advantage for raising funds for the
unemployment relief, and also giving
poor families the advantage of old
clothes, shoes, etc., that the owners
have no further use for.
The general committee in charge
sent out a second appeal yesterday for
persons having donations to get them
together and arrange for delivery at
once by one of the methods provided
by the organizations. Quick action
was urged because of the fact that a
fleet of trucks and automobiles bad
been donated for the work this week,
and. it was desired to keep them busy,
as many of them will not be available
next week.
The Oregon national guard regi
ment, under command of Colonel John
Hibbard and Major J. Francis Drake,
yesterday completed plans for its
wind-up drive in the campaign next
Sunday. The entire regiment has been
ordered to report at the armory, and
with buglers and army trucks they
will scour the entire city, making a
house-to-house canvass. Persons hav
ing bundles are requested to have
them on the front porch and the
guardsmen will pick them up in mak
iiig the rounds.
