abroad several years ago she visited the
Urge gardens of Samuel McCredy at

formed for tba general purpose of edu
cating the people to tha advantages of
good roads and the particular purpose
of opening a main artery through the
county, which would be a link in the
"Portland to the Sea" automobile road.
The first move to accomplish this
object was to make a passable road
for tha summer of 1(11. This required
an Immense amount of work to raise
funds, for which each road district ex
cept Rainier, from Deer Island to Ver
nonla, on the Nehalera river, voted a
special tax of from I to 10 mills. This
gave each district from $5000 to $11,000,

main artery through the county,

Mr. Merrill, aI of Clatskanle, they
were ahown over the road. Between
Clatskanle and the west line of the
county not less than five crews of road
worker were encountered, repairing,
making changes In grade and alignment
and general Improvements at all points.
This part of the work is well under
way and offers no obstacle to aay kind

Between Clatskanle and Qulncy there
Is a good road, one half of which haa
been covered with crushed rock. Be
tween Qulncy and Mayger, a distance of
a boat miles, there is a fairly good
road, with the exception of two miles
Just west of Mayger, which needs some
mors repairing. An effort will be made
to have this done at once. Between
Mayger and Delena, about seven miles,
there is an oxceTlent road about one
half of which has been - macadamised.
Between Delena and Rainier one half
the road Is good, the balance needs ad
ditional work. This work Is under way.
Between Goble and Rainier Is the
worst stretch of road that was found.
A week or 10 days will put this in
condition. An entire change of location,
however. Is considered advisable over
this stretch.
In the vicinity of Goble and between
Goble and Deer Island there has been a
lot of heavy construction. The road is ,
now well located all heavy grades re
moved and in excellent condition, con
sidering the newness of the work.

SEASON'S
DISPLAY
Whittall's Anglo-Persian Rugs are the highest
achievement in the art of weaving rugs by ma
chinery. Into their making, for more than a gener
ation, have gone the finest materials, the most
painstaking care. ,
Every thread of wool is imported from the moun
tainous regions of Persia, Afghanistan and the Cau
casus. Every particle of dyestuff is tested repeat-.
edly. Every improvement that inventive genius can
suggest is utilized in their smooth, lustrous finish,
their proved and tested serviceability.
In our windows this week is a notable display of Anglo-Persian rugs. Many
more in all sizes are on our floors. They aire new; most of them arrived last
week. They are well worth seeing.
We sell Anglo-Persian Rugs in the 9x12 size for $55.
This is no more than you would pay for the same rug in New York or Chicago.
It is some $400 less than you would pay for an Oriental rug of equal beauty
and durability. If you care about your home we believe that an Anglo-Persian
Rug will yield a larger return in permanent satisfaction than any other $55 in
vestment that you can make. J ' :Y
