You would not choose as the tail or for your suit a man who had not had years of experience, nor would you have a carpenter build you a house unless first you satisfied your self of his ability- Therefore, in selecting a motor truck, pick first of all a high-grade, manufactured product built by men who know the requirements and how to produce a truck that will meet them. t The MACK truck will meet any and all haulage conditions you may be disposed to suggest and meet them in a way that will cause you to admit they were done right.

Elgin King Eight OldsmobUo Oakland Mr. and Mrs. Morrow County Voter DoYouWanttoLose$328, That is just the amount of cold, hard cash Morrow County will lose if the 4 per cent Road Bond Limit Measure fails to carry. Here is the proposition: 600 The State Highway Fund is practically exhaust ed. No more Road Bonds can be issued until the people of the State authorize an increase in Road Bond Indebtedness from 2 per cent to 4 per cent. That is what the 4 per cent Road Bond Limit Mea sure means. MORROW COUNTY is now expending $148,600 of county money grading the Willow Creek section of the Oregon-Washington Highway. The State Highway Commission is supposed to finish the road by expending an equal amount putting a rock sur face on the new grade. If the Commission has made any provision for doing this work from the small amount of State Road Funds yet available from for mer bond issues, nobody knows it. The Commission lias made no definite statement to that effect. The State Highway Commission is "up against it" for money to continue the road building program if the 4 per cent Road Bond Limit fails. If the State Commission is unable to finish the AVillow Creek Road, Morrow County not only loses $148,(500 of State money on that road, but it also stands to lose a large amount of the County money already expended through the blowing away and washing away of the new grade. Can Morrow Coun ty afford to lose more than $148,600 on Willow Creek? MORROW COUNTY has appropriated $70,000 of county money to grade the Heppner-Hardmau-Monument road and has already paid for the survey. Under the law the State will match this amount ol $70,000 and the federal government will also put up at least an additional $70,000, making at least $140, 000 the county should receive from outside sources for the improvement of the road. The State High way Commission has definitely stated that if the 4 per cent Bond Measure fails they will have no money to put into the Heppner-Hardman-Monument road. Can Morrow County afford to lose $140,000 or more on the Hardman road? MORROW COUNTY has set aside $40,000 to grade the Hinton creek road east from Heppner, the State to match that amount in surfacing the road. Unless the 4 per cent Road Bond Limit measure car ries the State will have no money for this purpose. Can Morrow County afford to lose $40,000 on Hinton Creek? REMEMBER If the 4 per cent Road Bond Measure fails the Good Road Program in Morrow County stops.. REMEMBER That the issuance of more Good Road Bonds will not increase your taxes one penny. Automobile license fees and gasoline tax will take care of the interest charges as well as the retirement of the Bonds. Don't play this game to lose-PLAY TO WIN. Go to the polls May 21st and vote FOR the 4 per cent Measure. SAVE MORROW COUNTY $328,600 This ad paid for by Morrow County Court.
