Wallace , spoke on Good Fellowship, and ,-. wondered how palem- used . to -, get. along with none of the present clubs to teach oetter civic and' personal respon sibility and helpfulness.. He spoke mostly on the general subject of the Chamber of Com merce membership drive, and he said that maybe the canvassers ought to blame only themselves for lack -of faith or enthnsiam if they failed to selt the Idea to every one of their assignments, He thought the . citj ougbt to know-the men who refuse to do their part in carrying the Cham ber of Commerce and other civic loads, but' who stealthily piled tbjwKaelves on to 'the. sled ' that others are pulling, and steal rides they have not earned. The Orator ical club; picked a good prospect when It eliose Wallace for a mem ber.

The Portland Railr way Light & Power company con tributes towards the cost of the line in proportion to the nber of subscribers, which rednces the balance to be paid by the per sons desiring the service. ; Only a few of the residents along the road who have been called on by Mr. Walker and Mr. Dunnigan have refused to par ticipate and it is hoped by the other residents along the road that these few people who are holding out will soon signify their intention of cooperating with the rest of the residents to improve living conditions on their farms. As they already have telephone service and hard-surfaced, pave ment, the addition of the electric lights will help greatly to modern ize their homes.

POLICE CLOCKS HARD TO CHEAT Speedometers! Are Tested Every Month by Experts in Portland Speeders who start to question the police records when they are charged with fast driving in Sa lem do not as a rule get very tar with the court. A man recently haled before the court, for speeding, proclaimed his faith in his , own speedometer, whjch he "knew" was accurate, though he had never had it test ed., When the court began to ap proach the point of accusing his dial-plate of being a liar . or at least, a misrepresenter of facts, the prisoner countered with the asser tion that if bis was wrong, maybe the police record was a fraud also. The Judge called for the police proof. It came up from the police desk, in the shape of a sheaf of certificates from the Stewart Products company at Portland, factory agents f 6r th& srpeedome ters. They have been having the S&lem police motorcycle and Ford speedometers tested every month ipr a lone time. Tne machines are sent there for examination and a rigorous! lest; and for whatever correction might be found neces sary. They are accurate, In every sense of the word, and there Is no going back on them. In a recent Salem dispute as to the rate of speed at which a car wag moving; a test showed that at 9 mues an nour mere was an error of four miles on the dial, it snowing 19 instead of the official 15 and at 25 miles according to the officially tested machine, the Other machine showed a six-mile error.
