A DAY OK THRILLS
A Beaverton party, consisting of
Elmer Stipe and wite, Raymond
j Hanson, J. E. bummers, deo.
jBlasser. Frank Erieksen, H. l,
Ji. B. and Miss Downing, went
to the summit of Mt Hood, last
j Sunday. They witnessed theac
icident of Guide Hans Fuhrer,
w hen he rolled over the preci
I pice with Miss Kruse, in his at
! tempt to save her. Stipe was
the first to bandage the Guide's
wound. J. B. Downing remain
ed with Fuhrer until help came.
He secured the help of Forest
Ranger Coleman by "signalling
hina with a coat. Coleman slid
three-quarters of a mile without
hanging to the life-line, and he
then put Fuhrer on a knapsack
and sledged him four miles to
camp. The Beaverton party say
that Fuhrer's fall, Coleman's
long slide, and the sledging of
the wounded man the four miles'
to camp made up a day of thrills
that will long be remembered.
Aside from the letting of tire
Rex-Tigard work this year it is
not likely that the State Highwav
commission will do anything mote
on the Washington County state
highways until 191S rolls around.
The county court has endeavored
to get some intimation fiom the
commission as to' its intentions,
but when they visited the sitting
of the state highway ollicials
they found men from every coun
ty in the state there for the
same purpose. This will mean,
then, if nothing can be deter
mined this year, that the county
court will be held up on road im
provement on the state highway
portions except that which must
be done tor absolutely safe
travel.

SHot Shells
A NOTED Pacific Coast sportsman who has hunted every
thing from snipe to black bear, said recently : " The water
proofing feature now offered sportsmen in Remington UMG
'Arrow' and 'Nitro Cub' Wetproof Shotshells, is the most
important improvement made in the shotshell field in over a
decade. The men who perfected the Wetproof system certainly
know shotgun shooting and its requirements from field, duck
blind and traps, as well as from the scientific angle."
Here is something that every man who lives in
a wet climate or does his shooting in the stormy
seasons ought to know about.
These a the first completely wetproof shotshells
a new and exclusive feature of the Remington
UMC "Arrow" and "Nitro Club," Shotshells.
This is a process that took three years to perfect.
It involved a deeper study of wet-proofing ma
terials than has ever been conducted outside of
the Remington UMC laboratories.
It means special paper for the shells; a special
formula for the wet-proofing; new equipment

invented to apply the,' wet-proofing compound.
Virtually a new type 'of shell adding to the
shooting qualities of "Arrow" and "Nitro Club"
the hitherto uuknowncjuality of perfect resistance
to wet.
It produces a shell that can be soaked in water
for hours without swelling, and without softening
the crimp a shell that is as bone dry inside
after soaking as before a shell that works per
fectly through the gun in all climates, and can
be depended upon for sure fire, speed, pattern
and penetration, wet Jays as well as dry.
A shell that you ought to know.
