It is not expected that Oregon will he In a position to cooperate with the federal government much before 1918. but plans are so far advanced in Washington and Idaho that construc tion work can probably be undertaken next summer. "The keynote of the work of the Office of public roads," said Mr. Hewes, "will be cooperation between the Btates and the federal government In the administration of the federal aid road law. All effort will be di rected toward that object. It Is rec ognized that there is a great oppor tunity' in the northwest for public service through the development of cooperative action."

"That wouldn't be because I lik to fight. God free me from such a suggestion! But the principles for whtch the allies are fighting are the principles of humanity and civili sation." Sergeant Parker will not remain in Portland more than a few days. He la seeking a 'southern spot where equable climate will give him a chance Jto recover health. Found Stories True. "When I got to Belgium," said Parker, "I learned that the tales of atrocities had not been lies or exag geration. With my own eyes I saw Belgian girl of 12 about to become mothers, and the fathers, with no attempt to conceal the (fact, were the Uhlan. I saw a grave where father, mother, brother and sister were burled. A little way distant was the grave of a German officer. At the time of the invasion, thla German oofflcer saw the girl and quartered himself In her home. That night the brother heard bis sister scream. He rushed into th room. The officer .had the girl in his embrace. The boy hot him dead. Th hubbub brought other soldiers. They killed father, mother, brother and sister and burled them in one hole. "Do you remember the story of the charge of the London Scots. They did terrible fighting, like madmen. Their ferocity so enraged their enemies that I have seen the bodies hideously muti lated in unspeakable ways. I saw where they had taken these same bra. e soldiers wounded, and crucified them, driving bayonet through skulls, hands and feet, and thus fastening them to the walls of buildings.

"That Other Fellow is a menace to Everyone's Safety" Nine-tenths of all automobile accidents are caused by skidding and by foolish dependence on rubber alone. In these days of crowded streets and con gested traffic, the motorist who does not take precau tion to guard against every possibility of disaster is next to criminal. "The ever-present danger that Is quite ss much of a terror to the experienced driver as It ts to the novice Is skidding.

"I nave seen big hulks of ! fellow prostrate in the trenches." he replied. "They would be drawing ; themselves up Into knots, Into the ltfst possible space. They had to be 1 kicked out when the order to- charge ', came by torn one who would say, (Take your chance like a man.' And I have eeen these same soldier In the charge fighting like demons.

But it wa more witn a sens of some thing tremendous, something remorse less, . something, .certainly destructive impending than because of tn fear to b wounded or to be killed." 3 3 Weed Anti-Skid Chains Slipshod Traffic Traffic policemen, by the hundreds, interviewed in all the large cities on the coast and throughout the country, express tha unanimous opinion that their work would be greatly reduced; that nearly all skidding accidents would b eliminated if motor ists would take the precaution of always carrying WEED CHAINS, and putting them on when the roads and pavements are wet, slippery and uncertain. Some of these guardian of public safety go so far as to say that the time is not far off when State Legislatures will make theuseof WEED CHAINS cMnpuUory, for the protection of life and property. Make Safety Yours Take no chances. Funy equip your own car with WEED CHAINS and Insist, for your protection, that other drivers do the same. On the Rear Tire they afford perfect traction and adequate brake control On the Front Tire they act as ladders to enable the front wheels to easily climb oat of mud-rut, car tracks and all uneven places in psvements or roads, always insuring abso lute steering control, elimina ting all chance of the front wheel skid. 5 5 I If you haven't a set of WEED CHAINS, or if you have a pair fothe rear tires only, get a full equip- ment bow.
