L The broad, low porch carries an air of ease &3f stability. Its brick columns, sturdy and fotcr square, its wide entrancerand its mter estrng balcony rail along the porch deck, are responsible for much of its charm. At the end, next the low wide steps a brick floored terrace, jmxigntMtn-raiIed, affords a place in the sun. A doorway and two French windows open from the porch into the living room. Here a Designed for American Face Brick Association wide wood-burning fireplace of brick, fills the end of the room. On either side small paned windows add a charming touch. Through French doors opposite the fire place, the dining room is invitingly situated. A row of windows, three in number, and a pair of doors opening to the terrace make the dining room attractive and cheery. The bedrooms are at the back of the house, communicating with the bath by a common hall in which are found convenient closets for linen and wraps. The kitchen, just back of the dining room and convenient to the front door, is compact and well appointed. It has an enclosed porch from which the stairs to the basement descend. A fine sleeping porch could easily be added at the side of one of the corner bedrooms. The attic permits of various arrangements such as two nice bedrooms with bath or a large billiard room or den. ' The basement is provided with laundry, heater, coal bins and a vegetable cellar, beside, general storage spaces. ' The ceiling height is 8 feet 8 inches.

Not so long' ago the motorist - - 1 , - 7 considered himself lucky if he received 5000 miles from a set of tires, but modern methods hare brought about many changes and 15,000 miles is now . considered the average mileage received from good tires. This marked advance in quality is due to extensive' re search perfection of .-machinery and : metnoas, and economies- in Quantity material purchased made 'possible "by the tremendous pre sent day demand for tires. - Beaflng-out'thls tatemenrMr. Rydell points to Western Auto's latest 'price cut. He stated that the company is now enjoying the largest tir bnslness in-i its his torv and the growing volume has enabled Western Auto to place huge and very favorable contracts making possible this liberal reduc tion. New prices, as advertised are the lowest in the company's fit teen years of business and are much-lower" than pre-war prices. yet the tirea offered are Inestim- Ij-Weriorjn.auamx Demonstration Headed by Dr. Brown Stresses Health Not Disease When the ailing child of a Mar ion county mother, who had been treating it "with the help of tb Lord," did not get well promptly. the raotner came to the child health demonstration office, and said that she had decided that Pr. Warner and the Lord should get together.' She referred to Dr. Estella Ford Warner, pediatric specialist and director of medical service of the demonstration. Although the religious sects re presented in this county are man? and various, ranging from New Thought to the Pentacostal Faith and Christian Science, little active objection has been offered by them to the scientific healing and health building that the demon stration is doing, is the report of its officers. A higher health level for the people of Marion county, is the avowed aim of Dr. Walter Brown, director of the demonstration, and his associates. "We feel," says Dr. Brown, "that having finished the first 20 months of its existence, the demonstration is getting into its stride and is beginning to prove a vital factor for oetter health in this county. It should be remembered that in all oar work we emphasize health rather than disease, and preventive measures rather than curative." The demonstration is one of four of its kind in this country financed by the Commonwealth Fund of New York City, a gen eral welfare endowment which Is devoting a part of its income to the cause of child health. The other units-are located at Fargo, N. D.. Athens. Ga., and Ruther ford county, Tenn. The Marion county unit was established in February, 1925. largely through the efforts of C. E. Wilson, sec retary of the Chamber of Com merce, and after Dr. Brown had investigated the possibilities in 22 cities and counties scattered through the Rocky Mountain and Pacific coast states. Cooperation is the watchword of the demonstration; cooperation with the individual parents in the county, and with all the local wel fare social organizations, family physicians, and . all ;;who are,, en gaged in the movement for better public health. Eleven health centers have been established in the county and local committees composed of re presentatives of all the communi- tv . organizations in each center have charge of the work there. Regular conferences are held a each of these health centers at the following times: Aurora, third Thursday in month in the afternoon; Gervais. second Thursday; Hubbard, sec ond Wednesday in afternoon; Mt. Angel, last Thursday in afternoon Silverton. third Tuesday in the afternoon; Stayton, second Tues- day in afternoon every other j month; Mill City, third Wednes day In afternoon; Salem every Monday all day and every Friday atfernoon; Jefferson, second Tues day afternoon of every other month; Turner, Woodburn and Scotts Mills yet to be scheduled. Parents are asked to bring their children to these health meetings for physical examinations. Tn the first ' nine months of this year 2367 such examinations were made, and a total of 6162 exam inations have been made since the unit was brought here to Marion county. A total of J 4.978 nursing visits have been made by staff nurses and student nurses during that time. A new feature of the work started last May is the dental demonstration, headed by Dr. Es till Brunk. The need ; for good teeth and their influence on gen eral health makes this a very im portant part of the county health work. Up to October 1, 3370 den tal examinations had been made. -The public-health doctor who makes the examination does pot attempt in most cases to treat the patient, but refers the case to the family physician for . attention. The object of the health unit doc tors and nurses is to locate the defects and try to raise the physi cal standard of the community by having them corrected. ; One ambition of the demonstra tion is to make a special "study of rickets and why.it is so prevalent in .this vicinity. An investigation of thyroid trouble, which is more frequently found in the northern and western parts of the county. Is also anticipated. t At! the request of the. superin tendent of the state tuberculosis sanatarium. nurses of the demon stration follow up Into the home eases- of tuberculosis discharged from- the sanatarium and: help them; to readjust themselves:; to living conditions outside the hos pital,; keeping them under obser vation and reporting, to the phy sician in charge. .

In the extensive membership of the or ganization" which he heads are more than 1500 firms rated above 11,000,000 and some of which are capitalized as high as $200,000, 000.

A healthy environment for ad ults as well as children through out the county is the aim of the health workers who are taking steps to guarantee the purity and safety of water and milk supply, wholesomeness of foods," sanitary conditions affecting health, and control of communicable disease. This part of the work is being financed by funds furnished by the county court, Salem city coun cil, board of education of Salem, and the stale board of health. The benefits of the demonstra tion are being conveyed into com munities outside of Marion coun ty by visits of members of the staff to neighboring communities, as the nurses conference at Rose burg this week, and also by the stream of visitors who come to the demonstration here to study the methods employed. Contact with the people of the county is very largely secured by the nurses of the demonstration, wno might be termed circuit riders. There are eight of these oue assigned to each of the eight districts. Each nurse has complete charge of her territory and is on call for any kind of service from the prenatal period to old age. Dr. Brown, enthusiastic head of the demonstration, wishes to em phasize that the health service though not a charity is forthense ofveryone in the county, and can only achieve its. maximum -objec tive when everyone feels free to make use of its service and to co operate with it for the good of the whole community.

Miller, chief ' engineer of the American Institute of Steel Con struction, in an address delivered before the Fourth AnnualConven tion of the Institute. v ' . The convention was attended by two hundred structural steel fab ricators from all parts of the United States and Canada and by representatives of the leading steel mills. J The most practical way to re lieve traffic congestion and Us at tendant dangers to the , public," aid Mr. Miller, "is to separate the automobile and pedestrian traffie and devise additional park ing spaces for the, motor car. Streets should be .widened "by in cluding in them the present side walks. Second story sidewalks should be erected for the use of pedestrians. The show windows and main entrances of stores Srill then be on the second floor. The lower floors should be remodelled tor permit the entrance and park ing of automobiles jof patrona."

W. Va.. Octat). -rewind statistics based on pounds '"per square foot rather than on miles per' hour are essential for the design of struc tures in hurricane areas accord ing to F. E. Schmidt, an engineer of New York" City, who spoke be fore the fourth annual convention of the American Institute -of Steei Construction now in session here. Mr. Schmidt baa recently return ed from Florida where he made a survey of the sections devastated by the recent hurricane. "At the present time." said Mr. Schmidt, "the weather bureau gives complete information con cerning the velocity of the winds in various sections of the coun try but new instruments which will give the force of the wind in pounds will be an invaluable aid to the engineer in bracing his structures to withstand any force which the wind may hurl against them. Mr: Schmidt stated that during the Florida hurricane, the rain was thrown against the buildings with a force equivalent to that of a stream from a hose line under a two hundred and fifty pound pressure, thus constituting anoth er factor for the engineer to con sider. Harvey Wiley Corbett. an archi tect of New York City, told the convention that the modern sky scraper is an economic necessity and that it is not responsible for traffic congestion in our large cit ies. "Such congestion," said Mr. Corbett, "is due to the fact that thousands of individuals now re quire approximately four hundred square feet of traffic space apiece Instead of the three or four square feet that once sufficed. These in dividuals have encased themselves in a sheathing of steel mounted on wheels called the automobile and the motor if it is to make sat isfactory progress requires a free space approximately ten feet wide by forty feet long. Engineers should concern themselves with increasing the capacity of our streets. Curtailing the height of buildings will not solve, the prob lem. London and Paris are not skyscraper cities yet they have been suffering from traffic con gestion for years." H BUGS FOR MT.
