No definite action for rebonding taken from the treud ot talk it was understood that such action was only awaiting further investigation of details and a ful report to bo made on the subject by Attorney Br iggs. He stated that the legal right of the city to rebond was without question, although he had only re cently been acquired of that fact through study of the city chartar. The police department reported 172.60 as the amount received in fines by the city during the month of April. Several minor expense accounts were passed upon by the council and approved by the finance committee. The expenditure of the city for last montn amounted to 15,244.94. It was approved by the committee on finance. A petition signed by several Beech street residents calling tor sew er Improvements was read before the council. The matter was referred to the sanitary committee to investigate the necessity of such Improve ments and report on the matter at the next council meeting.

The pipe will be a six inch main and as the sewer runs parallel to the city par k half of the attendent expenses will be borne by the city,. The contract for the digging, cement work and laying of the pipe was awarded to contractor Klute on his bid of 24c a foot. Authority was given P. W. Walker, city engineer, to purchase the pipe. J E. R. Hosier, water superintendent, was given authority by the council to make necessary preparations for the checking of the city water acreage and supply before June 1. ; The council discussed means of effecting a sale of property owned by the city In various locations, property valuations were ' fixed and action taken toward that end. ) R.

The line ot American communications from tho ports to the fighting lines can be traced across France by the row ot red pins Indicating burial places, More than 400 American's are en gaged in various parts of France and Belgium In dlslnterlng the bodies for shipment.

The permanent .fields are being designed as shrines tor Americans in Europe for all time to come. Al ready, hundreds ot friends and rel atives ot the fallen are flocking to the graves. The American Army will probably was made by Mrs. C. B. Lamkin, with the request that the Civic Club take the initiative in entertaining the visitors. The club decided that the enter taining ot visiting women from all over Southern Oregon was an event In which all the women ot Ashland would take a pride In extending hos pitality, and. a committee was ap pointed to arrange for a noon lunch eon and to solicit donations and as sistance. The committee appointed in charge has Mrs. S. Patterson tor chairman assisted by Mesdames H. P. Holmes, H. E. McGee, J. N. Dennis, W.b. Curry, W. A. Shell. Mrs. Mary Wllsbire gave two de lightful readings. Dr. Maude Haw ley gave an interesting talk on the pleasure she ha dgotten out of her hobbias and disclosed the fact that from the days when she wore her hair In pigtails to the present, she has never been without a hobby. From pebbles and doll hats made ot Irish potatoes and trimmed in chif fon, and the building of many a tr eaties and making of many scrap- books to entertain both klddln and old folk, she has come to the pres ent which finds her snooping about looking for mushrooms. - Several visitors were present and a number of new members were add ed to the roll.

One big Detroit manufacturer, who was selling an average of 60 cars a month In Brazil during the latter months of 1919 and the be ginning of 1920, today admits that it is requiring five times as much to sell three machines a month. , "But we're not giving up," he declares.

If the farmer produces an artlrle In excess of any local needs, ads In farm Journals and period icals are effective mediums ot bring ing buyers, it Is said by advertising specialists. "That advertising is indlBpensible to any man Is a principle accepted by instructors in courses relative to business administration and courses In advertising show the type suited for each occasion.

The ability of American manufacturers 'to hold an export trade which was being built up during the war prob ably is receiving a more severe test In Brazil today than in any other nation of the world. And taken by small and large, the American business man has little to be ashamed ot In his record. Scores Of American business houses now are fighting against the greatest odds to maintain their position, and It is to eternal credit that most ot them are making good, despite obstacles. The automobile trade offers an ex cellent example. During the war, and the months Immediately follow ing the signing the armistice, prac tically every American manufacturer ot Importance established branch houses in Brazil. Business came al most without effort, for Brazil, like the United States, was enoyinjg a period of undreamed of prosperity.' About eight months ago, how ever, "the bottom fell out ot "the market."
