We won the flag and bond for scrap collections, have b;ught our quota of bonds consistently, turned in over-subscriptions to the Red Cross and went over the top in the U. S. 0. drive, and now our county has a generous amount of money on hand to help with the work of the Blue Mountain council. From the time of the first deposit, June 26 until July 28, the sum. of $1663-50 has been deposited in the bank. The women of the county should be given the credit for the success of this collection as only three men helped to gather the money. We are most grateful to Father McCon mack, Harold Conn and Cliff Con rad for collecting in the business district of Heppner. We are also grateful for the space given us in the Gazette Times and for the splendid editorials the editor has written in behalf of the council The manager of our bank has our thanks for caring for deposit slips, lists of all names and all the de tails to take .his time and atten tion. We owe a debt of thanks to all the solicitors who cheerfully gave their time in rolling up this large amount of money. We owe another debt of gratitude to all the people that reached down in their pockets and handed out the necessary cash So many of you came up with five and $10 apiece making this huge sum possible. Many gave more than was anticipated. Regarding money sent to the council, on July 3, $150 to furnish a sun room. Our check arrived late so the money was used to purchase chairs for a sun room. A check for" $5 was given to purchase a rug for a sun room. July 14, $400 was sent to pay for air conditioning unit and Venetian blinds for one ward. A letter arrived from the secretary of the council stating the government was buying air conditioning for all wards Col. Miller, commanding of ficer of McCaw hospital, asked that our check be put in a special fund to take care of emergency needs for the comfort of the pa tients and that he felt sure some thing just as necessary would arise in the near future.

But see it through a microscope: That snaggle toothed saw edge can rip gouges in cylin der walls in a flash. That's why you use mo tor oil to keep cylinder and piston apart. And that's why you need an oil like "RPM"; one that won't leave bare spots, by crawling away from high engine heat, or draining into the crankcase when the engine's idle. Special com pounding makes RPM Motor Oil cling stubbornly to hot or cold metal surfaces. Now, when cars and parts are pre cious switch to RPM Motor Oil, and change it every 1000 miles -right on the dot!
