The rooms were beautifully decor ated in appropriate colors for the occasion, autumn leaves, corn atalks, 'luantities of yellow chrysanthemums, pumpkins and the brilliant coloring of the Chinese lanterns adding much to the beautiful effect.

Mr Donn came to the, Pacific Coast last May from the New England states where he had been factory represen tative for the It. C. H. Corporation. Prior to his connection with the R. C. H. people he was branch manager of the Olds Motor company at Detroit. The Haxon Is the first of the light idx cylinder cars to. be offered the public at a price less than $1000. W. S. Barnes, formerly with the J. W. l.eavitt organization, will handle the local sales for the new Saxon com pany. Mr. Barnes has been in Port land with the Overland people several years and has made a host of friends among the automobile buyers. The first shipment of the new Saxons are now en roxtte to Portland. Above Scenes on upper waters of East Hood rirer on the line of the proposed government highway around Mount Hood. IteJow Map showing survey of link that will connect existing roads. TO BE ADVERTISING HEAD The construction of a great scenic highway around Mount Hood, connect ing the Columbia river highway and the Barlow road, is a step nearer realiza tion. Government engineers have sur veyed and located the final link around the eastern slope of the mountain, through the national forest. The next step 1s to secure an appro priation by the federal government to build this link. A bill for this purpose will be Introduced at the coming (ses sion of congress. Estimates of the cost of the link have not yet been worked out. it will probably be in the neighborhood of $1 On, not). As located, the road leaves the upper Hood River valley near Mount Hood Bodge and proceeds up the east fork of Hood river, through Rennet pass. Here It reaches an elevation of 4S00 feet, the highest point on the road. Crossing the head of White river, it runs through Barlow pass, where It Joins the old Barlow road. The pro posed road Is 25 miles In length, and the average grade is only 3 per cent. In no place does it exceed t per cent. In many' places magnificent views of the mountain are to be had. In addition to the main line the en gineers have located a loop route, which ascends to a higher altitude, ap proaching nearer the mountain. Owing to its elevation, this loop can be traveled only a few months In the year. It joins the main line near Ben net pass on the south, and near Mount Hood Bodge on the north, as Indicated on the accompanying map. The main route passes between Look out mountain and Elk meadows. Ac cording to Engineer B. J. Finch, the road will be easy to construct. For 15 miles it will be comparatively level and the cost of construction will be low. The most difficult construction will be between Bennet and Barlow passes. At least two large bridges will be necessary, one across the east fork of Hood river and the other across White river. Near Eookout mountain the location intersects the survey that was made a few years ago, known as the Klinger sUrvey, of a road from Ward's mill to Government camp. The Intersection is about 15 miles from Ward's mill, and it is suggested that Borne day a con nection will be made with Ward's mill to connect with the road to Dufur, and thence to The Dalles. This will give two routes around the mountain, one from Hood River and the other from The Dalles. Snohomish County To Vote on Roads $1,800,000 Bond Ittrae Proposed for Hard Surface Highway Between Klnjr and Skagit County Llnea. Snohomish county, Washington, will vote November 30, on the question of a bond Issue of $1,800,000 for perma nent roads. It is proposed to hard Fiirface the Pacific highway from the King county line north to the Skatgit county boundary. Good roads enthusi asts have volunteered to act as elec tion Judges and the polling places will be largely donated, eliminating much of the expense of a special election. One provision of the bids to be called for provided the bonds carry will be that Snohomish county residents be employed on the work. George C. Hubbs, assistant general Kales manager of Dodge Brothers, Just before leaving on a business trip to the Pacific coast, announced the ap pointment of George H. Phelps as di rector of advertising. For the past year Mr. Phelps has been assistant to Mr. lluibs, who has filled the position of both assistant general sales manager and director of advertising to A. I. Philp. general sales manager, have made such demands on His time that the greater part of the work of the advertising department has devolved on Mr. Phelps.

Noted authority tells what causes Backache and Bladder weakness. Gersix cylinder machine and G. H. Peters, its designer. The above is the first of the new trucks assembled in Portland by the Gerllnger Motor Car company and will be Included In a shipment to be made to one of the warring nations. -G. H. Peters, who Is standing in front of the truck, is the designer and chief en gineer. The new Gersix has some highly commendable features not in cluded in auy other truck manufac tured In this country. First it was j specially designed for the northwest territory. The Gerllnger company as well as Peters have a great deal of experience with trucks in Portland and the northwest, and should be well ad vised as to the needs of truck users in the territory. The Gersix is the flret six cylinder, electric started and lighted machine to be placed on the American market and has been the sub ject of much comment by eastern makers. A car for test purposes was assembled here about six months ago and placed in the transfeV service at Salem with E. L. Kappahn. The truck has been in daily service for more than four months and has run more than 4000 miles under all load conditiong, thoroughly satisfj-ing the designer, Peters, that the Gersix is constructed along the right principles. A novel pocket electric light is sup plied with current by a dynamo en closed in the handle. No man or woman who eats meat regularly can make a mistake by flush ing the kidneys occasionally, says a well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid which clogs the kidney ports eo they sluggishly filter or strain only part of the waste and poisons from the blood, then you get sick. Nearly all rheumatism, headaches, liver trou ble, nervousness, constipation, dizzi ness, sleeplessnes, bladder disorders come from sluggish kidneys. The moment you feel a dull ache in the kidneys or your back hurts, or if the urine Is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, irregular of passage or at tended by a sensation of scalding, get about our ounces of Jad Salts from any reliable pharmacy and take a tablespoonf ul. In a glass of water be fore breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with llthla, end has been used for generations to flush, clogged kidneys and stimulate them to activity, also to neutralize the acids In urine so It no longer causes Irritation, thus ending bladder dia-orders- Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot injure; makes a delightful effervescent litrtla water drink which all regular meat eaters should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and the blood pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney complications.

Portland Branch, Broadway at Burnaide Street Goodrich GOODRICH Tires have thus far boen ' 'known9 only to People who used them. To these they have been known chiefly by the uniformity of Mileage they delivered, per dollar invested by the user. Also by the "Fair List" price Propaganda, of the B. F. Goodrich Co. which this year saved some $25,000,000 to U. S. Car-Owners, through uncovering the "Padded Price-List" imposition on Tire Consum ers and Dealers. BUT, henceforth "Goodrich Tires" will be known at sight even to people who never hope to own a Car. Known by the fact that the standard Goodrich Fabric Tire will have the same stylish BLACK Tread appearance as the aristocratic "Silvertown" Tire (which cannot yet be turned out in half the quantity the Market calls for.) No increase over the reasonably low Goodrich Fair-List Price as established, is asked for the new, and highly distinctive, Goodrich Black Tread Tire. So, why not have your Car Up-to-the-minute, when( you can equip it with these very "smart" Goodrich "Barefoot' ' Tires. AND here is how these Barefoot Tires act in Automobiling, When the weight of the car bears on the clinging, "Hyper-Rubber" in their Treads, and the power is applied to go ahead or reverse, the stretch in the "Hyper-Rubber" Sole of the Goodrich "Barefoot" Tire acts as a sort of Lubricant between the Fabric Structure of the Tire and the Road. Then the Hyper-Rubber "Toes," of the Goodrich Safety-Tread Tire CLING to the pavement (instead of. grinding against it) just as your Bare Foot would cling to a slippery surface without Grind, and so, with the minimum of Frictional Heat or Wear for maximum Traction. Goodrich "Hyper-Rubber" is also made into Good rich Motor Cycle, and Bicycle, Tires, as well as into (jroodnch Rubber Boots, THE B. F. GOODRICH CO. Akron, O.
