widow and nine lirlnr children: S. C, of
Arizona; J. a., or Marshfleld; Mr.
Daisy Short, of Myrtle Point; Mra. H
H. Harris and Claude Giles, of Myrtle
Point; Mrs. R. H. Dickey, Arizona; Mrs.
Julia Stewart, Powers; Daniel Giles.
Powers, and Lieutenant Clark R. Giles,
with the American expeditionary forces
in France.
In early days Daniel Giles and T. M.
Herman were partners and brought
into the county the first mowing; ma
chine and the first thresher. He also
served in the Indian war during; 1856
and 18S8.
An endowment of $200,000 has been
received by Reed College from a donor
whose name Is not made public at this
time. The endowment is to be used for
equipment of a school for the re-education
of returned eoldlers. This Is the
only school of its kind now being;
planned for in the West, though there
are several institutions of this nature
on the Atlantic Coast.
In addition to the endowment. Reed
College also has been offered extensive
founds and buildings in the city which
V'ill be used for housing the school.
With the large endowment pledged
fend the grounds and buildings prom
ised. Reed College is ready to extend its
jvar work to the new field.' It now re
mains only for the War Department
and the Federal Board for Vocational
Education to determine when and un
der what conditions the college may be
used for training the wounded men for
lew careers.
College Work to Expand.
The school for the training of recon
struction aides to assist returned sol
diers to recover the use of their func
tions, which Reed College is conduct
ing on the campus and at the Lewis
House clinic, has been regarded from
the outset as only one phase of. the
work of rehabilitation. Flaps for the
organization of the new department of
J-e-education have been quietly develop
ing for the last 12 months. The new
department will fit in with the recon
struction aide work. Along with the
treatments by means of remedial exer
cises, massage, and hydro and electro
therapy, the remedial workshops In
vhlch the convalescent soldiers will be
directed in work which has both a vo
cational and remedial value will be
operated.
When President Foster was In France
and England last Fall he studied the
methods, equipment and achievement of
the principal schools of re-education.
Elnce that time he has been in touch
tvlth the progress of similar agencies in
Canada and has had In mind establish
ing such a school at Reed College at
the earliest possible moment. The
remedial workshops to be conducted
under the new endowment will be a
part of the reconstruction war work of
Reed College, and will Include the
training of reconstruction aides and the
recalling of returned soldiers to new
Ways of earning a living.
Donor's Xante la Withheld.
A man whose name Is not made pub
lic has kept in close touch with the
school for reconstruction aides and
with developments In Washington and
has provided the endowment for the
new department to be conducted by
Reed College in co-operation with the
Government under such conditions as
the War Department may prescribe.
The grounds and buildings In Port
land, which have been offered for the
use of the school, are well located and
suitable for use as a branch hospital
and a group of remedial workshops.
After much discussion In Washington
It has been decided, to turn the work of
reconstruction over to the department
Federal Board- for Vocational Educa
tlon. This board has telegraphed Reed
College that plans will be worked out
in due time so that the board may take
advantage of the offer of the college
It is probable, however, that It will be
possible to care for all the returned
soldiers during the next few months at
Institutions already established on the
Atlantic Coast. Experience has proved
that the needs of the wounded soldiers
will ultimately demand the use of in
stitutions in every part of the country.
The work in England and France is
nation wide and' will be even more nec
essary at the conclusion of the war.
Convalescent Hospitals Planned
The re-educatton of soldiers Includes
Instruction in new trades and profes
slons where the loss of limbs will
not Interfere with the work. And in
the education In the use of limbs and
arms. Some of the things that have
fceen taught are poultry-raising, ma
chine work, woodwork, 'bookkeeping,
drawing, typesetting and numerous
other trades.
To be of greatest value, the re
education work must go on at the
earliest possible moment of con
valescence. So the Reed College school
will probably Include a convalescent
hospital, where reconstruction - aides
can rehabilitate the soldiers at the
fame time they are convalescing. Men
ho can possibly be trained to go
taak to their old occupations will
do so.
In cases where a man Is bo' badly
Injured that he cannot go back to his
former occupation effort will be made
to train him fon the vocatlon.for which
Jiis previous training and experience
has best fitted him.
FRAUD CHARGED IN SALE
(Surer of Interest in Business Seeks
to Recover Money.
That he was fraudulently induced to
purchase a .half Interest fn a soft
drink stand and confectionery at $1500
when It was worth only J700 Is charged
by Sam PoHtis In a suit filed yester
day In the Circuit Court against Nick
Jtaptakis and T. Raptakls. brothers.
The plaintiff alleges the defendants
took advantage of his ignorance of
property values In getting him to pur
chasa an interest in the place.
"They told me I could double my
money In three months, but I cannot
break even," declared the plaintiff.
They said the business ran from $90
to $90 a day, while It amounts only
to $30 or $40. arM this Is barely enough
to pay expenses."
The plaintiff asks recovery of $1180.
Which, he says, the defendants wrong
fully - and unlawfully procured from
aim In the sale of the store last April.

GetInto Trouble. -
Ralph B. Neilson, aged 19, was sen- I
tenced to three months in the County
Jail by Judge Tucken yesterday after
admitting the theft of an automobile
several weeks ago. The boy was per
mitted to plead guilty to simple lar
ceny in order to escape a penitentiary
sentence. The court was averse to
branding him a felon because of his
youth.
Neilson ran away from his home In
Idaho early this Summer and came to
Portland to enlist In the Army. He
could not pass the examinations and
was rejected. He then took the au
tomobile and drove the car to Con
vallis, where-he was attempting to sell
It when arrested.

days but many are prevented from
spreading by the quick work of the
forest ranger sitting in his glass house
always on the lob.
Nothing escapes him. Iatt year a
party of foresters went up Mt. Adams
to make a survey of the country pre
llminary to establishing a lookout
house. After they had broken up their
camp they burned the fir boughs on
which they had slept so. that the dan
ger of fire from them would be done
away with.
Smoke Sees 65 Miles).
Fifty-five miles away on the summit
of Mt. Hood, a forest ranger In his
glass house saw the smoke from this
little blaze and sent In the alarm by
his telephone. It was only a small bon
fire and It was carefully watched by
the officials of the forest service, but
It was Just as carefully watched by the
alert forester 55 miles away In his
glass house. Nothing escapes the look
out man. He Is always ready to report
a blaze which makes a smoke, no mat
ter how Insignificant It may be. And
o he Is worth more than any other
agency lor fire prevention In the forest.
The higher the mountain on which
the lookout house Is located, the better
view the lookout man has. Where the
house is comparatlvey low. nothing can
be seen because of the clouds. Where
It Is high above the clouds, the smoke
can be seen bubbling through the
clouds and with his fire finder up In
the cupola of his lookout house the
lookout man locates the flame and tele
phones to the nearest ranger station
The Osborne fire finder, which Is a part
or tne standard equipment or every
ranger station In the United States and
in parts of Canada. Is the Invention of
W. B. Osborne of the Portland district
forest office.
House Made la Section.
The new forest ranger lookout house
Is made in sections ready to put un and
Is easily taken up the mountains with
out waste of wood and without exoess
lght. The whole house weighs but
8000 pounds and can be taken up on
pack ponies and In some cases with
pulleys.
To assist In the fighting of fire, the
Forest Department haa built 4350 miles
of trails in Oregon and S600 miles of
telephone lines. Practically all timber
of the state Is in sight of some lookout
house and connected with ranger sta
tlons by fire trails and telephone com
munications. In many sections of the
country where rnere are campers, for
est patrols are maintained. These men
keep on the lookout for fires on their
dally rounds and carry a teleDhone
with1 which to communicate with rang
ers In cases where they cannot put out
the fires which they discover.
In fighting fire a trench Is dug
around the burning section and trees
are felled Into the blaze so that the
flames will not be carried over Into the
green woods beyond the trench.
The highest lookout station in Wash
ington Is that on Mt Adams, which Is
12,047 feet in elevation, the highest In
the United States.
Alfred Allen, who died suddenly-
of apoplexy recently at Sea
side, Or., was a retired stockman
and rancher of Eastern Oregon.
He was a resident of Portland,
having lived here since 1906, dur
ing which time he has taken care
of farming Interests in Linn and
Lincoln counties and other sec
tions of the state. Mr. Allen was
ES years of age.
He was a son of the late B. F.

The Puncture-Proof Tire
To" advance "the""art- of "tire 'building, it
'Was first necessary to discover a new princi
ple Jn the science of tire construction
Charles C. Gates discovered that princiq
pie, arid applied it when he built the first
(Gates "Half-Sole Tire. Today Gates Half-
(Sole Tires are revolutionizing the whole tire
industry. 300,000 car-owners the largest
business firms in the country have adopted
them as regular equipment; and by doing so
'they have cut tire expense in half.
GatesachievedJaXscientificitriumphin
he;Half-Sole.Tire.
First, he succeeded in relievihg'the fabric
carcass from the double strain of inflation'
pressure and road impact. He protected
the fabric carcass from stone bruise and the
'shocks of the road. He protected it from
(the moisture which ordinarily soaks to the
fabric through, tiny. cuts and naiL holes, and
.rots it.1
Secondhe" enabled every ' motorist ' to
'enjoy the security of puncture-proof tires,
and save money while doing so.
Motorists thought that the rubber tread
determined the life of a tire; but Gates
'proved that a tire will last as long as the
fabric carcass is preserved, sound and whole..
Such is thejachievement. of .theGates
Half-Sole .Tire.'
The result is"that you can get 5,000 to
rl 5, 000 "additional miles of service from the
same tire you have been throwing away
merely because the tread was worn; and the
great factory at Denver has been doubled
and redoubled to take care of the demand.
Gates Half-Sole Tires are puncture
'proofguaranteed so by the maker and yet
they cost only one-half .as -much as other
guaranteed tires?
