WALIjULA to re laid up
Port of Portland Tug Will Be
Overhauled and Then Tied Up.
One of the Port of Portland tugs
will be laid up this week, as the
number of sailing ships in sight for
the river does not justify the keeping
of both tugs in service.
The tug Oneonta, Captain Johnson,
is in Astoria today washing boil
ers with the Wallula outside.
As soon as the Oneonta is ready to
return to her Btation the Wallula will
come to the Port of Portland drydock
for her annual overhauling and will
then be laid up to await the fall ship
ping. The towboat Ocklahama will be out
of the Portland ship yards this week
but will likely not be placed In serv
ice as there is little for a towboat
to do and the work can be readily
handled by privately owned boats when
not busy with the log towing on the
river.

THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND. MONDAY, APRIL
PORTLAND HAS 1200
THAN LAST SATURDAY
Saleswomen Who Are -Taken
Over- Columbia Highway
: Enthusiastic About Trip.
NO MISHAP TO MAR DAY
Patrolling of Boad by Company T,
O. IT. and Deputy Sheriffs Xs
Praised on All Sides.
The tourist who comes to Portland
this summer will have Just J200 more
chances: of getting information on the
scenic features of Portland and the
suburbs, and especially the Columbia
river highway, than he would have
had before yesterday.
That number of saleswomen in
Portland's retail stores were taken
out on the Columbia highway yester
day and today can be counted on each
as an individual bureau of tourist In
formation. Portland's automobile owners re
sponded to the call and about 300
machines were put into service for
the all-day outing. To the girls it
was a revelation from the minute tha
down-town district was left behind,
and so with song and merriment run
ning rife, . started the biggest educa
tional campaign yet undertaken.
The auto owners were under the gen
eralship of the Portland Ad club, the
Rotary club, the Progressive Business
Men's club, the Automobile club and
the individual efforts of R. D. Stone.
Shortly after 9 o'clock every girl
had been placed comfortably in some
car and the procession started for the
highway.
The road was well patrolled by
Sheriff Hurlburt and guardsmen from
Company F, O. N. G under the lead
ership of Captain Eugene Ldbby, Lieu
tenant Edward E. "Walker and Lieuten
ant Alfred Biles. Deputy sheriffs on
motorcycles also patrolled the whole
length of the road.
One of the merriest scenes was at
the Automobile club's Sandy river
home. This was a stopping point for
hundreds of the girls and lunching par
ties and dancing in the clubhouse .add
ed still another angle to the day of
many joys.

A FIRE TRATMENT
FOR CATARRH
HAST TO XiXS AX9 COSTS Limi)
Catarrh Is such an Insidious disease
and has become so prevalent during
the past few years that its treatment
should be understood by all.
Science has fully proved that Ca
tarrh is a constitutional disease and
therefore requires a constitutional
treatment. Sprays, Inhalers, salves
and nose douches seldom if ever give
lasting benefit and often drive the
disease farther down the air passages
and into the lungs.
If you have Catarrh or Catarrhal
deafness or . head-noises, go to your
druggist and get one ounce of Parmint
(double strength). Take this home and
add to it A Pint of hot water and 4
ounces of granulated sugar stir; until
dissolved, take one tablespoonf ul 4
times a day.
This will often bring quick relief
from the distressing head-noises,
clogged nostrils should open, breath
ing become easy and mucus stop drop
ping into the throat."
This treatment has a slight tonlo
action which makes It especially ef
fective In cases where the blood has
become thin and weak. It Is easy to
make, tastes pleasant and costs little.
Kvery person who wishes to be free
from this destructive .disease should
give this treatment a trial. Adv.
