Sboald Be Provided at Salem, y Eagene, Roscbarf, Medford. The prospect of Portland being- put permanently on the United State air service map and of it being a regular thing to hear the hum of aircraft mo tors and witness the. antics of fliers over Portland business blocks has been brought very much nearer as the result of tha receipt of a letter from Colonel Stilton F. Davis of the air service, war department at Washington, in reply to Ilose. festival reqursts for a big air fleet to visit TortUnd at the time of the Rose Festival. "By June." says Colonel Davis, plane undoubtedly will visit your city. providing you can provide a safe land ing place for fliers." That everything possible will be done by Colonel Uavis to send a fleet to do ftunta over Portland during the festival is made certain by the expression of liia deep personal Interest in Portland and Oregon, lie was appointed from this state and attended and enjoyed the ;rt Hose Festival in Portland. In hia letter to trie V. liauser. which lias been turned over to H. C. Von Bor- tel. chairman of the festival commit tee on special features. Coionel Davis ays: It ia the Intention of the air eerv. !- to extend our system of air explora tion, map making, landing field, hunt Ing. etc.. throughout the northwestern elates durtni? me coining summer and by June planes undoubtedly will visit your city, providing you can provide a aife landing place for fliers. "In order to have planes visit the JSose Festival In June, you should Im mediately take steps to provide a land ing field In the Immediate vicinity of the cltl. Sly home is at McCoy. Polk County, and I wouldn't hesitate to land a fleet of planes at almost any place from Hillsboro to Eugene on either side of the valley. A landing field should be approximately 3000 feet long and fcOO feet wide, and smooth enough for an automobile to make 2 or 30 miles an hour across it in any Direction. Oregea t Idea Told Get Baay, "Portland. Salem. Kugene City.

With the end of the war and lifting of the censorship many heroes are com ing to light. Among these is a Port land boy, formerly referred to in dis patches simply as a "dotrghboy." He is Sergeant Ferris VY. Abbett, son of Kev. T. Abbett of University Park church. Karly last year, when tha first of the Oregon boys were landing in France, a story in The Oregonian told of a deed of heroism in one of the American camps. A bunch of doughboys had been standing together when M hand gren ade fell in their midst, instantly one of the boys stepped forward and stood on the grenade. It exploded but in ured none save the brave boy. He was In the hospital for several weeks be cause of "eating too much French cheese. he told his friends. When Dr. Carl Doney. president of Willamette university, came back from France, ha aeemed surprised to learn that no one here, not even the boy's parents, knew of the incident. The news later was corroborated by others returning from the front. Sergeant Abbett is with the supply train of the lt2d regiment. He ar rived at Camp Lewis recently and Is ezpected to return to Portland next week. He has been doing clerical work since his injury in the "line of duty." That he will get a royal welcome at his home. 667 Vanderbilt street. Is without question. OREGON BANKERS TO MEET Dates for Annual Convention Set at Portland Conference.

Conversion of the road into racetrack for that perioa nas peen allowed by the county commissioners. Commissioner Muck dissenting. Question as to the legality of the pro ceeding was set at rest yesterday when District Attorney Evans opined that if the county commissioners desired to convert roads under their jurisdiction into motorcycle race courses on a Sun day afternoon,, there was a statute in the 1917 session laws quite apparently designed to give them that privilege. The statute may appear to contradict other laws and to abrogate the speed laws of the state, which provide that 25 miles an hour shall be the limit on Oregon highways, but It Is on the books and its legality has yet to be brought into question by court action. Citizens who might object to the in- terference with their rights to travel on that county road during those hours, citizens who believe Sunday is a day of rest and should not be devoted to races, residents along the road who might de sire to go in or .out of their homes during that period may blame the leg- LAW PERMITS ROAD RACING DiMirct Attorney Holds County Com missioners Have Authority.

InflnewA is produced by a baciThia or germ coming' chiefly from dis charges from the nose, throat and longs of the person who coughs, sneezes, or spits. The person at tacked feelsjchflly, develops a high tempera tare usually accompanied by headache and "ache all over" as it is usually described. If you have the above symptoms get into bed as quickly as possible, after a hot mustard foot-bath. Take a good purgative, such as one made up of May-apple, leaves of aloe, root of jalap, and sold in every drug store as Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. Then surround yourself with hot water bottles. It is a fact mentioned by physicians of the largest experience that the effort on the part of nature to throw off the poisons results sometimes in inflammation of the kidneys. It is therefore Very important to assist nature in eliminating the toxins (poisons) from the body thru the bowels, skin and kidneys. Not only should this be carefully attended to by the sick, but by the person who wishes to ward off an attack. A new kidney remedy called " An uric" (anti-uric) can be obtained of the druggist. This "Anuric" flushes the bladder and kidneys and throws off the poisons (toxins), and should be taken with hot water or hot lemonade. Clear the nose with some good antiseptic spray or Dr. Sage's Catarrh Bemedy. It is, of course, unnecessary for me to emphasize this, keep strong and healthy, fear neither germ nor German, and observe the three Cs: A Clean skin, Clean bowels.
