ect to be completed by the Red

pital Jackets and woolen dresses.
They completed two quilts, cut
six "of the dresses and finished
the splints for the first aid squads
at the last meeting.
Some of the women store the
first aid and emergency supplies
in the cupboard built by John
Hanby in the city halL Similar
supply cupboards will be built at I
the Legion hall and school gym
nasium Army cots are needed to
complete the list of emergency

it advisable to have her taken to

scious for a brief period. No in
juries were discovered after she
had been under observation at the
hospital lor 24 hours, and so I
Charlotte was taken home.

City officials are considering
the improvement of Bassett street,
the short one connecting Wallace
road and Patterson street, from
the $480 fund which is allotted
by the highway department for
city street maintenance.
The street is important to the
lumber companies and box factory
on Wallace road and the Blue
Lake Producers cannery on Pat
terson street. The matter will
probably be brought up at the
next council meeting.

river valley and California.
Charles RT Cooley, chamber of

Curiosity seekers,, apparently; ilooking for something
sationaL" will not be permitted to ivisit Oregon's state hospitals,
provided a suggestion of the state, board of control meeting here

The ruling 1 was requested by! Dr. Donald wair, superin
tendent of the state hospital at
Pendleton. Persons who have good
reason to visit the. state hospitals
will be admitted as will relatives
of patients and such persons as
sociology students. i
Dr. Wair told the board that
his Institution would , hate ft
difficult time In keeplnr with
in its biennial appropriation doe
to the Increasing commodity
prices and other advancing op
eration costs. He also said that
many of his key employes had
resigned recently to accept Jobs
in the shipyards and other de
fense Industries.
The eastern Oregon state hos
pital now has 1256 patients but
can accommodate 100 more.
Wair sueeested a man where
by all Multnomah county patients
would be sent to the state hospit
al in Salem and then some of
them would be transferred to
Pendleton In groups. , He said
such a plan would save consider'
able expense as under the pres

Logger Killed
Near Holley
LEBANON Howard Lucas, age
about 30, was killed late Monday
while falling trees in the Holley
section. He had lust felled a tree
which snagged another as it came
down.' The top of the second tree
snapped off and struck him, caus
ing internal injuries and nearly
severing one leg just below the
knee.
The body is at the Howe Funer
al home, from which place an
nouncement will be made regard
ing the funeraL He leaves a wife
and several children.
This wa one of the findings in a recent survey of the
nation's car-owning public, according to Geo. B. Jali, Gilmore
Oil company branch manager for
this area.
It is estimated that more than
two out of every three families
In this country own cars, and
that more than one-half of the
car-owning families never have
bought a new car. For this rea
son, the Gilmore official declared,
it would be a serious mistake to
ignore the requirements of the
older cars in "tailoring" gasoline.
More facts about Mr. Av
erage Motorist, as given In the
survey: He has a family of
three, drives from 8000 to 9009
miles a year, and earns less
than $31 a week. He Is 40 to 45
years old. Uvea in a community
of fewer than 5000 population,
and doe more than half of his
driving for business purposes.
One important reason why so
many people own cars these days
ia because automobiles ' -live
much longer! now than they did
a decade ago. In 1931, the av
erage life of a car was about
eight years. :Now the figure Is
closer to 11 or, 12 years. One out
of every four cars operating in
the United States today is rune
years or more old. This in itself
is a tribute to the emcieni tunn-
cation and i other maintenance
work dose day after day by the
nation's service stations.
