E. Enyart, a former Medford banker, ! promoting company to construct an aerial system to trans port tour'sts from the rim of Cra-1 ter Lake to the lake surface. One of the largest eastern wire rope man ufacturers Is associated with Mr. Enyart, and will have experts on the ground in August to get all ne cessary data and solve the various engineering problems. It Is calculated that such a pas senger conveyor as proposed by Mr. Enyart and his associates will be patronized by at least sixty per cent of the people that visit Crater Lake. In 1920 over 20,000 tourists were up to the rlin of Crater Lake, but only a small portion of this number went down the slope to the surface of the lake on account of the steep and difficult climb.

SAFEGl'ARDS OF WATER Sl'PPLY STRENGTHENED BY CITY COUNCIL1 1 j Following an investigation of the sanitary conditions existing at tbe bead of Ashland canyon on property owned by Jesse Wlnburn, known as Sap and Salt In the Woods, former ly Long's Cabin by Dr. J. D. Striek er of the state board of health about I three weeks ago, action was taken' yesterday evening at a meeting of the city board of health, to ellmi-j nate all chances of contamination of the city's water supply, The Inves-j ligation and action followed a h'.th Ford Plant Builds 108,962 in June Demand Exceeds Output as Ford Breaks All Previous Records During tbe month of June, tha Ford Motor. Company, through Its Detroit factories and its twenty-two Assembly plants throughout the country, reached the production of 108,962 Ford cars end trucks, setting up a new high record for one month. Production of Ford cars and trucks has been steadily increasing since eurly spring, and shows substantial gains over the same period last year. The second quarter ot 1921, viz., April, May and June, shows au output of 301,790 Ford cars aud trucks, against 220,878 for the sum" three months of last year, or a net increase of 80,918. ' Despite the fact, however, that the Ford plants have been running at maximum capacity, the demand for Ford cars and trucks is not being met, and at the present time, many thousand unfilled orders have been piled up ahead so that Ford sales are still limited by manufacturing facilities rather than marketing possibilities. Particularly Is this true with respect to enclosed cars, for which the demand has been unusually heavy. One reason cited by Ford officials for the unprecedented demand for Ford cars Is the present tendency toward economy. j.Many of those whose names have been added to the long list of buyers might well have afforded larger and more costly cars than the Ford, but it is the belief that most prospective motor car buyers are investigating all of the costs Incident to motoring much more carefully than at any period during the past five years. The estimated output of the Ford factories for July calls for 109,000 cars and trucks, or a production of 4360 a day for 25 days. Since the assembling of cars is being handled during an eight hour work day only, tbe hourly output will be 645 cars. In other words, one Ford car or truck leaves the assembly line every 6 seconds.

The students killed the three pi rates according to the story told by ship's officers, using fire axes, hose; nozzles and belaying pins in as ex citing a sea buttle as was ever chron icled in the thrilling literature of the ;sea. The buttle ended, they rolled their bodies overboard, and directed the frightened crew of the small craft to continue the journey. The men who took part In this ex- plnlt are A. D. Elb, W. I..
