One farm one property and one house and lot had been sold during the year, ag gregating a total of over $1500 in good sales contracts and notes, but it bad been impossible to raise casn on such papers. This fact is what is hampering the work at the present time. The services in the cbapel Sunday morning were attended hy a full boose. Iter. H. Kogen and J. M.

' ' liohart Stout, ' In charge of the Installation of the equipment. plained the operation of both the electrical and gasoline-powered mo tors as "efficient and economical.' The electricity driven motor gener ated 5 horse power, nnd easily nper ated the nine sprinklers which were fed by It. Kord Northrnp, electrical engineer Sat the Kuiirne Wnter Bonrd, reported thnt n maximum of 40 pounds prosaure could he ohtnln ed nt a . cost of approximately 40 cents for ench Inch of wnter per nrre. 1 lie 8j power gasoline mo tor, operating 30 sprinklers, consum ed hut one gallon of gasoline per hour. The permanent set-up nt the Shnf- fner Bros, place Irrigated apprnxl mntely 10 acre of beans and other vegetables. Iloth the sprinkler nnd Hkinner line systems were used. Sprinklers Shown Ten sprinklers, driven froiii nn elec tric motor, supplied water for four jobs, which are temporary not require skilled labor. "Skilled labor," said Hockley, longer needs relief. Oregon Is not nn Industrial state, and therefore Is not faced with the same problem as onstcrji stntes. The supply of skilled labor is used up, and the problem now is to find jobs for the thousands of unskilled laborers Hockley laid stress upon tbe de slrablllty of a PWA loan over that from WPA funds, providing the re quirements for such a loan could be met by the project under considers' tion. AH projects under PWA losns are contract jobs, permitting tbe contractor to hire and fire hla work rs without Inteferenee from relief officii!, be sold. Tbe wsge scale paid under PWA Is also higher thsn the subsistence wsges of the WPA urogram. All workers, from common laborers to skilled workers, are paid at the prevailing wage rate, while WPA workers receive a stipulated monthly wago at the subsistence level. The outstanding features of the new PWA act wero explained. These Included the incrense in funds avail able, the authorised purchase , of revenue bonds by the government. nnd the simplified applications. Ap plications, to meet- tlio requirements of the new deadline, need only be sketchy'1, snid Hookley. They should bo made out on the regular form nnd be accompanied by engineer' ing nnd architectural data sufficient to enable stato and national officials to understand the project. The op plicntlons may be filed subject to subsequent elections authorising tne Issuance of bonds, and do not need the recommendation of county, city or regional planning commissions. The recommendations of such bodies will be welcomed, but are not neces-ssry,- na in WPA grants. Major Kllnlio Large discussed with Horkley several city projects, for which PWA funds may he ' aought. Among these were the city sewsge disposal Improvement, the construc tion of a municipal fire alarm sys tem snd the replacement of the city maintenance plant. The first two projects were yet' undeveloped. Large explained: while he Intimated thnt the lest wonld be referred as a 1"A project. The probable cost of the new plant would be $4,f00, too small sum for the Issuance of bonds to obtain PWA credit, I.nrgo said. County Judge Fred Flak question ed Hockley ns to the possibility of obtaining PWA funds for Improve ments at Oakrldge. Including an overhead crossing between that town and the stnte highway nnd the much discussed Onkridge wnter system. A delegation of Onkridge people were present to mnke their needs known. Flsk referred to the need lor new fire-proof vaults for the Ijine county courthouse, suggesting that P" A funds might be secured for the $20,- 0(HI project.

" DEADLINE IS SET Applications for entrance to eiam (nations qualifying for positions in the state employment service and the national employment service must be in at the stnte office in Eugene by September 4, it was announced here toduy by Dr. James F. Gilbert, dean ut the college of social science of the ,'niversity of Oregon, who is special representative for the U. S. employ ment service. The applications should be made to Dr. Gilbert at bis office at tbe uni versify, where full imormation may also be obtained. Many applications have been re ceived during the past ten days, Dr. Gilbert reports, but a considerable number have been rejected on account of failure to .comply with the re quirements set up by tbe U. S. em ployment service. Positions for which examinations are to be held fall into two main classes, he points out, al though there are six separate cate gories. The positions of manager, super visor and junior and senior inter viewers., with salary ranges from $10SO to $3000 call Lot executive ability, education and experience of a high order. For all of these a high school education of four yearB is re quired as a minimum, although in some cases training in business or correspondence schools may . be sub stituted for one of tbe high school yearB. College or university training may be substituted in part for the re quired experience, but even college training cannot take the place of ex perience entirely, points out Dr. Gil bert. Moreover, experience to qualify for positions of managers, field su pervisors and interviewers must have been in commercial, industrial or other employments that provide a knowledge of occupations and employment problems. The second class of positions call for accounting, statistical or clerical training and experience along the Bame lines. These are positions as statisticians, statistical assistants and clerks, typists and stenographers. In this case a high school course of four years is the minimum educational re quirement, and the experience must be clerical, accounting or statistical work. College training may shorten somewhat the period of experience required. Those who have filed or plan to file applications for positions of su pervisor, manager or -interviewer would do well to familarize themselves with the theory nnd practical opera tions of the employment service, with stnte lnws affecting employment and with industrial and employment con ditions in Oregon, it Is pointed out The office nt Eugene has supplied tne leading libraries of the state with list of references ttfcit may bo read with proTit by those intending to take the examinations. Jn filing applications it Is Import ant that the type of employment de sired be specified, Dr. Gilbert states. Applications may be sent in at any time, out must in tne Jugene 01 fice before Kept. 4 At they are to receive consideration.

Harrisburg Store Is Razed By Fire HARRISBURG, Aug. 21 (Spe cial) Fire destroyed a second-hand store owned by John Sleutel here early Wednesday morning, and for a time menaced the office of the Harrisburg Bulletin.

UNIQUE DEVICE IS FEATURED INSHELL "DRIVESAFELY'CAR When tbe Shell "Drive Safeiy test car arrives here Thursday to aid in the 6afety campaign being promoted by the Eugene Register-Guard, local motorists will bare an opportunity to aee one of the. most unique devices ever invented for measuring the op crating safety of a motor car. This device is known as a "decelerometer1 and is in use throughout the country hy stste and city police departments. As the name implies, it is a meter or measuring Instrument for deter mining the deceleration of a car in other words, how long it takes a enr to stop when the brakes are applied. The decelerometer looks like a small bor nnd Is fastened to the run ning board of an automobile whose brakes are to be tested. Inside the box Is a pendulum arrangement. A card Is Inserted for each test which tbe pendulum con register Its swing. hen the car Is braked, the pendu lum tends to "keep going" that is to sny, it. swings forward. Tbe faster the car stops, the farther the pendu lum swings forward and the card is marked to measure the pendulum swing in terms of the rate of decolor atlnn. The test is much more accurate nnd more simple than the old method of racing a car to a certain line and then attempting to apply the brakes at that point, because no two motorists ever managed to step on the brnke pedal at exactly the same spot. According to R. Stevenson. Shell mnnnger here, the test takes but a few moments. All car drivers In the Eugene area are invited to hnve their enrs "safety-tested" free of chnrgc during the hours between 10 a. m. nnd 10 p. m.
