m OF THIEVES
BUSY IN DISH
Farmers Along Pacific High
way North of Salem Re
port Loss to Officers
Automobile thieves who break
Into garages and barns to strip
automobiles of accessories are op
erating in the districts on the Pa
cific highway north of Salem, ac
cording to the reports which are
dribbling into the sheriff office
day by day. The main robberies
were committed some time last
week, while the reports were not
made promptly. As a result the
local officers have been powerless
to give assistance or to trace the
thieves.
Seven garages have been en
tered by the gang, which operates
in a systematic manner. The only
clue which the officers are able to
clearly state is the report of a
large car, which was headed south
at a high rate of speed. It is
probable that the gang is operating
by touching at communities here
and there and selling the loot at
some southern point, for instance
San Francisco..
The gang used the same
methods in every robbery that has
Lten reported.
Entrance was usually gained by
forcing the lock on a door and en
tering the garage to obtain their
loot, which consisted, as a rule,
of batteries, spotlights, sidelights,
tools, and other articles that are
stored in the garage.
From every indication the
workers were fast and did the
work before the barking dog of
the farmers and other disturbances
were very loud.

Willamette University Stu

Minister's Address
Reverend Alex Bennet of Brem
erton, Wash., delivered an address
to the students of Willamette uni
versity yesterday during the reg
ular chapel period. The address
was well received by the students
and was considered to be one of
the best given for some time.
Rverend Bennett started his ad
dress with a disertation on the
subject of "The Sunshine of
Christian Faith," and brought out
quite forcefully that this form of
sunshine should claim the souls of
those present.
As a further thought Reverend
Bennett brought out the point
that the secret of friendship is to
be found in the belief that all
bounds of friendship to be found
on earth are from hearen.
After giving several interesting
anecdotes Reverend Bennett clos
ed: his address by showing the
students that they should not
worry about living up to their
degrees but should do their best
anyway.
An address was given to the
Kimball College students at 3
o'clock.
Special Train Is Secured

the siding next to Lausanne hall
and is scheduled to leave at 2

Some will tell you other
ways to do this. But re
member that this way has
for 65 years been, relier-!
ing pain for millions. It
does that quickly, without
burning the skin. You can
rely on It. Your druggist
guarantees it. Why Uke
chances on a method not
so sure?
Keep St. Jacob's Oil on
hand. Have it ready when
the pain starts. Don't
waste hours which you
can spend in comfort. Just
a moment of rubbing with
St. Jacobs OH will , end
most of the pains you suffer.-
