Where, the great outdoors has been retained and the beauties of Oregon crystallized by the landscape artist and the builders of homes.- Garthwick, adjoining the Waverley Country club, with the" lure of a morning game of golf. Garthwick, near the banks of the gorgeous old Willamette, with the opportunity of an evening boat ride on the river or a chance for a wily chinook or a sporty silverside. Garthwick with its beautiful paved streets and 'alleys, its ornamental arch lights, its large building sites, its wonderful car service, its magnificent homes. Garth wick, the social center of Port land and within the reach of everyone. Garthwick is the re sult of the vision of a syndicate of Portland's leading business men who were interested in the Wav erley Country club and who pur chased and developed this mag nificent tract that a' suitable environment should surround their favorite golf club. With the same civic spirit they are now offering this wonderful property at one-half its actual value and much less than cost, that you may be able to take advantage of the present price of building. Hence these terms will not change the pres ent high character of the district and all of the existing restrictions will continue. Their loss is your gain. Their philanthropy is your opportunity.

Cherish the falling leaves and use them for fertilizer on ' your rose beds. C. P. Keyser, superintendent of parks, gives this advice to Port landers who would improve their home gardens. The bureau of parks always collects and uses all fallen leaves on park property as fertilizer and urges amateur gardeners to do likewise. The leaves, so often -considered a nuisance, can be put to good use. This practice especially is desirable since horses are disap pearing from the city and manure is scarce. Fallen leaves will fertilize the rose beds or the vegetable plots, as the owner desires, but in any event the present autumn leaf season should be profitable for gardeuers. Last fall leaves were piled in the park blocks awaiting the park bu reau trucks which, would haul them away. Overnight the leaves disap peared, showing that someone real ized their value. ...

' REALTORS TOLD TO WOHK PRESIDENT BECKWITH SATS DRONES ARE BURDEN. , Members of Local Board Advised to Give Some of Their Time . to Organization Duties. Members of the Portland realty board were urged to be workers rather than drones and participate m the various activities of the or ganization, in an open letter1 by Harry Beckwith,-the new president, which appeared in current issue of The Realtor, official publication of the board. ' , Mr. "Beckwith emphasized the fact that the local board is: the fourth largest in America and enjoys an enviable position in the national as sociation of real estate boards. "Great care should be-, used in choosing new members," said Mr. Beckwith in his letter, "while those who are now members should not be satisfied unless devoting some of their time and talents in further ing the profession and assisting in the endeavor to live up to the ethics of our calling. "'It is not fair that a few should do all the work; it is not .fair that others should self ishly- sit back and benefit from the labors of the few. "A thing worth doing is worth doing well. To do this well ail must work together. The point I Want' to make is that it isn't sufficient for a member Just to pay dues and be sat isfied; he should of necessity take on the other obligations of member ship to be- of value to the board. ' Attend the Friday luncheons; do your share of the committee work; spread the gospel of organization and the merits of a realtor. It will broaden and strengthen you in your work, increase your business and lighten your burdens. . "Be a worker don't be a drone." Night Riding Hearing October 8 . MEDFOED, Or., Sept. 23.

Sept. 23. (Special.) A Wagner, North G street confectioner, has filed as & candidate for the Aberdeen:, city eounoil from the 5th ward, to suc ceed James Empey, who i a candi date for mayor. VIETW OP FULLER IN ACTION OX ELMER STAUPFER PLACE SEAR HUBBARD, A demonstration of the ability of a new power stump puller, Invented by D. J. Bontrager of Portland, was given on the farm of Elmer Stauffer, north of Hubbard, last Thursday afternoon. Stumps as large as 30 Inches in diameter were jerked out of the hard ground and In some Instances several stumps at a time were pulled without trouble. ' . .- Among those who attended the demonstration were G. S. Smith, president of the D. J. B. Power Puller company, and H. L. Jackson, vice-president of the same concern, which manufactures the stump puller, and A. F. Sersanous, representative of R. M. Wade & Co., of Portland. , . A feature of the puller is the fact that it is equipped with a four-horsepower engine especially delCrna- for use in pulling stumps. This engine has two speeds similar to an automobile and can be slowed down for extremely hard pulls. It is estimated that this little engine with th puller attachment can do at least two times the work of an ordinary horse puller. In addition it can operate where horses would mire down, in "Hhe mud or where other stumps might interfere with the operation of a horse puller. It is declared. The -stump puller was perfected i ffortlan And the company backing it is an Oregon concern. , - EVERETT RECALL T CHARLES A. TURNER, COM MISSIONER, TARGET. Lack of Enforcement of Dry Law and Regulation of Gambling Dens Is Charged. PUGET SOUND BUREAU, Everett, Wash., Sept. 23. With the turmo-U of the congressional and county primary election scarcely ended. Everett is again disturbed by the movement for ths recall of Charles A. Turner, one of the three city com missioners, specially charged with the department of public safety. Captain Turner has himself just closed a somewhat strenuous cam paign in which he sought to take the republican, nomination for congress from this district away from Repre sentative Lin H. Hadley of Belliag ham. Division of the Everett and Snohomish county vote between Captain Turner and N. J. Craigue, county treasurer, who also sought the congressional nomination, made things all the easier for Mr. Hadley, who carried the district by a nice plurality. Captain Turner hadn't oeen given time to rest up from the congres sional campaign when the recall movement began. Petitions are now in general circulation; but while they are being numerously signed, it seems doubtful if a sufficient num ber of signatures can be procured to call for a recall election. In any case. Captain Turner shows no signs of alarm. It is the second time in two years) that such a movement was started against him. The first finished Lamely, and he looks for the present movement to break down. The charges on which the recall petitions are based are five In num ber: That the department of public safety as administered by Turner has exceeded its budget; that the prohibition law Is not beinr en forced; that hotels are not properly regulated; that card rooms are al lowed to conduct gambling games; that Turner employs his son in his department at a salary of 120 a month. The movement is sponsored by Benjamin W. Sherwood, a local lawyer. The last of the five charges is frankly admitted. Captain Turner's son, a veteran of the world war, has a place In his office.
