Number of Voluntary Con

Says Secretary
Closing nhe Near East and
China famine relief campaign for
funds in this county, the execu
tive committee is working out de
tails for a hoiife to bouse cam
paign for Thursday and Friday
of this week. The town has been
districted thoroughly and each so
licitor will be given a definite
territory to be responsible for.
An appeal to the students of
Willamette university yesterday
morning resulted in ill students
offering to give time as solici
tors, and others offering to help
if needed. Nearly all of the
churches and a number of promi
nent women's clubs of the city
have also asked to be allowed
to help. W. P. Walter, executive
secretary, has asked that all so
licitors report at headquarters
at the Commercial club either on
Thursday or Friday.
"1 have never before met such
a hearty response to the appeal
from a needy people,", said Mr.
Walter yesterday. "The large
number of voluntary contribu
tions are particularly encourag
ing. This morning we had a dem
onstration of one of the biggest
sacrifices yet made. A man, aged
65 years, came to the office and
gave a check for $10. The man
said that it was a real sacrifice
for him to give that, for he is
working for $15 a week, but that
he couldn't eat his own meals
until he had done something for
those who had even less than he."
Many people have askd why.

"They are sending food in large

Judge G. W. Riddle, or Riddle,
Oregon, is in the city today at
tending the annual meeting of
members of the cooperative asso
ciation. Judge Riddle has served
for the past year as one of the
directors of the association and
was re-elected at the January
election.
Judge Riddle, although 82
years old. is one of the most ac
tive and energetic fruit growers
of southern Oregon. For many
vears he has taken an active part
in the affairs of Douglas county.
His political career began In
1872 when the judge was elected
a member of the Oregon legisla
ture. He was re-elected for the
187 4 session. Then he again be
came a member of the legislatures
of 1885 and 1896.
He served in the Oregon In
dian wars of 1855 and 1856 and
was a member of the Oregon First
cavalry during the Civil war, be

Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets
are a Harmless Substitute
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets tfie sub
stitute for calomel are a mild but sure
laxative, and their effect on the liver is
almost instantaneous. These little olive
colored tablets are th result of Dr.
Edwards' determination not to treat
liver and bowel complaints with calomel.
The pleasant littler tablets do the
good that calomel does, but have no
bad after effects. They don't injure the
teeth like strong liquids or calomel.
They take hold of the trouble and
quickly correct it. Why cure the liver
at the expense of the teeth? Calomel
sometimes plays havoc with the gums.
So do strong liquids. It is best not to

scenery is beautiful, tho roads
are bad, managed to get his car
stuck in a tenacious mudhole.
After he made vain attempts to
escape a boy appeared with a
team.
"Haul you out, mister?"
"How much do you want?"
"Two dollars."
After a long and fruitless argu
ment the motorist agreed to pay
the amount asked and the car
was pulled to dry land.
After handing the money to the
lad, the motorist asked:
"Do you haul many cars out

"I pulled out twelve today." ;
"Do you work at night, . too?"
"Yes; I haul water for the

Though not generally known, it it a fact that
expert paint and varnish makers require many
years of training before becoming efficient, and
?T ; even then but few become experts. In the
Bass-Hueter factory-all varnish making is su
pervised by an expert of over forty-two years'
experience. Similarly the superintendent of
paint manufacture has had over thirty years of
success in this work, But expert personnel is
just one of the reasons for the high quality and
economy of Bass-Hueter products.
A scientifically operated plant doubled in
capacityand equipped with the most up-to-date
mechanical devices, many of which are exclu
sive Bass-Hueter features, brings production
costs down to a minimum.
