In midocean the Epsom began leak

GOOD

VOTERS TOLD MONEY TO BE WELL SPENT
Magnificent Hard-Surfaced
Assets ot California; Multnomah County, by Voting
Bond Issue, Can Make Improved Roads Asset of Value.
To the -Voters:
I once was opposed to good roads.
Sometimes, now, I think back and
fPte the error of my position
" vuuBA uaj a. J3UI X v at.il I. qutie uiamo
I myself. I believe I acted in good
faith. It is quits probable that many
who now oppose good roads are acting
In good faith.
But I was ignorant then. And It Is
I had to go to California to become
converted to the good roads idea. But
it didn't take me long to become con
verted.
In California I saw valley after val

I sate of activity and productivity,
rwuai um n.
I I saw hundreds of miles of Califbr-
nia roads built. I saw the develorj-
ment follow the roads. .f-I saw homes,
sprmg up where nothing; but barren
lands existed before. I saw the bir
utrcus ana rancnes cut up into small
tracts and I saw farmers released from
the burden of heavy mortgages and be
come financially independent. All this
was because the roads offered freer
and easier access between the rural
districts and the cities.
Opposition Is Overcome.
In California as in Oreeon. manv
honest people at first opposed road
improvements. They believed them to
De.an exPenslve luxury and intended
only for the benefit of the rich
nut California overcame the earlv
opposition and started to build modern
hard surface highways, such as we
contemplate building here in Multno
mah county now. Jt did not take Ions
then for the whole state to learn what
benefits were following road construc
tion. Soon people became Dogiessed
of the idea everywhere. Now they are
spending several million ' dollars an
nually for road improvements there.
All the main trunk roads are in

COCOANUT OIL MAKES
SPLENDID SHAMPOO
f you want to keep your hair in
good condition, the less soap you
use the better.
Most soaps and prepared sham
poos contain too much alkali. s. This
dries the scalp, makes the, -hair
brittle, and ls very harmful, "just
plain mulstfled cocoanut oil (which
is pure and entirely gresseless). Is
much better than soap or anything
else you cam use for shampooing,
as J this can't possibly injure the
hair.
Simply moisten yo'ur bair with
water and rub H in. pne or two
teajspoonfuls will make' an sbund
nee of rich,, creamy lather, and
cleanses the hair and scalp thor
oughly. The lather . rinses out
easily, and runovtm every particle
of jdust, dirt, dandruff and exces
sive oil. The hair dries quickly
and evenly, and it leaves It fine and
slljcy. bright, fluffy and easy to
manage,
You ean get mulslfied cocoanut
