UNION CHURCH THRIVES COVGREGATIO.V AT MOSIER VOTES TO COXTI.MB COMMUNITY PLAN. Services Are Conducted by Various Lay. men. Debts Paid Off and Sun day School Grows. MOSIER, Or., March 25. (Special.) Considerable attention has been at tracted to the services of the Immanuel Church, Federated, of Mosier. Without a pastor since the beginning of the year, Sunday services have been con ducted by four or five prominent lay men, acting in turn so that the work will not fall on any one person. A good song service is provided by the choir and the congregation, with special music by a male quartet, the choir or soloists.

CONVICT ASKS BOOKS Chemistry Student Appeals to University for Aid. EUGENE FACULTY RESPOND Beginning for Prison Library Is Sent to Salem Effort Will Be Made to Introduce Ei 1 tension Courses. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene, March 25. (Special.) An endeavor is being made by students of the uni versity to supply the state prison at Salem with a complete textbook li brary. The endeavor has grown out of the desire evidenced by convicts for educational stimulus during their con finement. One convict, who is trying to learn chemistry, wrote to Professor O. F. Stafford, of the chemistry ' department, telling of the plight he was in. The matter was taken up with M. H. Doug las, university librarian, who immedi ately got in touch with authorities at balem, and duplicate books in the li brary on the subject of chemistry were sent the man. The books were not sent for his own possession, but will be added to a small library at the insti tution, so that other convicts inter ested in the subject can use them. Mr. Douglas continued the matter farther through the campus of the Y. M. C. A. The Interest of students was aroused to such an extent that the endeavor to forward to Salem a complete textbook library is now be ing made. Thirty-six books have been gathered to date. The' extension school has also been put in touch with the matter, and a letter has been addressed to Salem re questing permission for the university to give convicts extension courses. At present there is one convict on the extension course list. This is a con vict in the California state prison who is taking work in geology. s Convict No. 7360 at Salem writes: "I am trying to learn chemistry here, and have made good progress so far, considering the fact that the textbooks we have on the subject are all more or less mutilated, and were printed prior to 1884, and contain only 64 elements. I thought it just barely poshible that there might .be an old set down there that had been left by some of the students. "What makes it harder for me to ask is that I have no money to send to pay for the express, but I feel sure that if you would read this to the class in chemistry some one will volun teer to help me out."

PERUNA in Your Home A housewife must give the first aid in colds, coughs and other ailments. Her promptness in applying the remedy often saves a serious illness. Her experience with remedies has led her to know that PERUNA is always reliable, that she should have it on hand for the immediate treatment of coughs and colds, and that it is always to her Mrs. George Parker, 419 Water St.. Meo ashs. Wis., writes: "We have used Pe runa in our family for a number of years, aud have found it a perfectly reliable medicine. It soon rids the sys tem of any traces of a cold, and pre vents serious con sequences. "I began using it for catarrh, which I suffered with a flood many years. but had not been very serious until recently. Since 1 have taken Peruna the dropping in my throat has discontinued, and my head and nose are not so stopped up in the morning. I am pleased with the results, and shall continue to use it until I am entirely rid of catarrh. "1 heartily recommend it as an honestfmedlrine." What it does for her it is ready to do for you Colds and Catarrh " The great weight of testimony that has accumu lated in the 44 years that PERUNA has been on the market proves it, beyond question, to be the reliable family rem edy, ever ready to take, preventing the Berious effects of colds, coughs, grip and derangements of the digestive organs.

The Peruna Company, Columbus, Ohio - BO II D BUYER GIIORED Oregon City Sells $275,000 Is sue to Local Banks. $5500 SAVED ON DEAL Council, Provoked by Tactics of Bro kers, Breaks Loose and Decides for Home Buyers, Who Oversubscribe Heavily. OREGON CITY, Or., March 25. (Spe cial.) Dissatisfied with the offers of professional bond dealers and provoked by their conduct of negotiations, the city today practically completed the sale of $275,000 5 per cent bonds through local banks, independent of bonding and trust companies. The city will receive par for the issue by marketing the bonds directly, in this way saving at least $5500, as the best bid received from the bond buyers was 98 cents on the dollar. To use a term made familiar by European war loans, the local bond is sue was over-subscribed. The bank of Oregon City is willing to take $100,000 of the issue, the First National Bank $110,000. the Bank of Commerce $75. 000 and Frank Beck $10,000. The total of these four offers is $295,000, or $20, 000 over the issue. It will be necessary to receive bids for the issue in order to comply with the charter, and a special meeting of the Council next week is probable to close up the sale. The finance committee of the Coun cil, composed of James Roake, Henry M. Templeton and Roy B. Cox. aided by several local bankers, engineered the sale of trie issue without the usual assistance of the professional bend dealer. City Attorney Schuebel also assisted. The city advertised for bids in the usual way and offers were received. At one time the issue was given to a Port land trust company, but the company's attorneys found an alleged flaw in the issue. The city sought new bids, but the Council was unable to obtain a satisfactory offer. At a meeting of the Council last night a second election authorizing a change in the levy was considered, but the finance commit tee of the Council today hit upon t"he plan of marketing the issue directly among local banks. Showing the popularity of municipal bonds in financial circles and attest ing to the substantial credit of Oregon City, local banks, after communicating with outside interests, were eager to secufe the issue. The Bank of Oregon City and the First National Bank are heavy holders of warrants, and the is sue was authorized to meet the warrant debt. The bonds are of the serial variety and have a life from two to 20 years. ASHLAND HAS BOND PLAN Refunding of $43,500 Bearing 6 Per Cent on New Basis Proposed. ASHLAND. Or.. March 25. (Special.)

Specifically the issues are $34,500 street intersection, $6000 septic tank, and $3000 fire protection securities. These will be refunded on a 5 per cent basts, instead of 6 per cent which the old bonds bear. The refunding offer is made by the Lumbermen's Trust Company, of Port land. The bond Issue is to run for 20 years, payments being optional in In stallments after 10 years. The city Is to receive par and accrued interest for any of the old bonds which may be pre sented for payment before the refund ing series are ready for delivery, which will be issued in denominations of $500 each. At a meeting March 20 the City Council favored the proposition, subject to ratification at the polls. GASTON BUSY LAYING PIPES Unemployed Disappear as Farmers Start Rebuilding Barns. GASTON.

While still a little wet for plowing, a few farmers have started in and, with the clearing of land and mending of roads, every able-bodied man is needed to keep things going. Pnblic Scales Condemned.
