THE HERMISTON HERALD. HERMISTON, FOR WOMEN MOTORISTS. NEXT WEEK’S Some and Should Not Do. The good driver of a motorcar never applies brakes swiftly except in an emergency. When drawing up at a street side she cuts off ignition early and allows momentum to carry the car to the stopping place, using the service brake gradually. The good driver thus saves gasoline and wear upon brakes, coasting to a stop with the smoothness of operation of an easy start. A good driver never uses the emer gency brake, because she never has emergencies. She sees and avoids the emergency before it arrives. The poor driver rushes into trouble and depends upon quickness in grabbing the emer­ gency lever to save life. More than one accident has followed a futile at­ tempt to find the seldom used emer­ gency lever in a hurry. The good driver rounds sharp cor­ ners to the right and goes over ex­ tremely rough stretches of road or hits unexpected “thank you ma’ams” with clutch disengaged, to save the rear axle mechanism. The good driver uses the wheel with the least possible motion. She does not drag it suddenly from side to side. but turns It so gradually that passen­ gers are unconscious of the fact In rounding a corner she commences to straighten the car up before it Is half­ way around. — Woman's Home Com­ panion.

Bankers and financiers general­ ly tell us there is plenty of money in circulation now. Naturally in flush times people are inclined to loosen upon the purse strings. This is commendable, especially in view of the many calls that are being made on the generos­ ity of the public. But if we are not very careful, much of our charity will be mis­ placed. There are legitimate calls that we must meet, and we can not afford tobe humbugged. The government must be finan­ ced, the Red Cross and kindred organizations must be supported and it will take every dollar we can rake together to meet these demands. Aside from these legitimate de­ mands. though, every now and then we are importuned to give to this, that and the other so-called “relief” scheme. People with more “patriotism” than brains conceive that the soldiers are not being cared for, and a "bazaar”» is promoted to give the needed relief. The people out of their loyalty and generosity respond liberally, with the result that if the pro­ moters are honest and disinter­ ested. the soldier boys are delug­ ed with a lot of junk for which they have no earthly use. In many cases, however, the pro­ moters are "interested" more in themselves than in the boys, in which case the proceeds are mainly eaten up in the form of salaries and expenses. The Government has issued in­ structions for all the auxiliary work it wishes the people at large to assist in carrying on. and it will be well for all to read up on these instructions, that they be not duped. No every young enthusiast who can scare up a red. white and blue sash and take a collection for a “cause” is to be encouraged. There are, as we have said, leg­ itimate channels through which our relief can be bestowed, and we should be very careful to see that it goes through these chan­ nels, that it may be sure of reaching the object for which it is given. There are indications that Mr. Hoover’s efforts will eventually bring flour on speaking terms with the people. The Kaiser is quoted as saying that all he wants is justice, and the Allied world is of one mind in the determination to see that he gets it in full measure. The probabilities are, however, that his kaisership won't recognize the article when he sees it coming. If an object is needed to show in what light Germany regards neutral nations, and to verify her estimate of a treaty as a “scrap of paper,” the fate of Norway is ample for the pur­ pose. That nation, although ad­ hering scrupulously toa policy of neutrality, has lost hundreds of ships by German submarines and mines, and not less than 5,000 lives with them. No one of the allied countries’ navies have suffered to the extent that Norwegian shipping has suffered. The Russian Bolsheviki seem to have been handed a lemon in the German peace proposals' The Kaiser’s government mod­ estly demanded control of the Russian wheat market for a per­ iod of fifteen years, that she re­ tain all Russian territory now’oc­ cupied by her troops, and that all German made goods be im­ ported into Russia duty free. Doubtless there were some minor concessions she would have also, but she hoped to have no trouble in securing these when she had her victim securely tied. But even a Bolsheviki has glimmer­ ings of reason and the proposi- tion was not received with en- thusiasm. For a Postage Stamp, $670. Things a Good Driver Should RECORD COAL LOADING Unela Sam's Plant at Cristobal Is the Fastest In the World. The good work of the Cristobal coal loading plant at the isthmus of Pana­ ma is the subject of a report receiv­ ed at the war department from one of Its boards, whose conclusions are that the plant fully meets the plans of the engineers and is probably the most efficient loading plant in the world. It was found that the minimum perform­ ance during the test was 1,950 tons an hour and the maximum 2,486 tons. The minimum occurred when one of the four diggers was temporarily out of commission, due to a defective bucket. At 2,400 tons an hour the plant far exceeds the work of any other known plant for loading steamships or even of railroad loading plants. The canal collier Ulysses was loaded at the rate of 1,650 tons an hour, and 12,000 tons were put on her In eight hours. Mer­ chant ships cannot be loaded at this rapid rate, as their hatches are too small and their buukers are not ar­ ranged to admit of such work. This Is a feature in shipbuilding that is be­ ing carefully taken care of nowadays in constructing ships that are to pass through the canal. All new United States naval colliers are so built that they can be loaded at high speed. Garment Making In New York. garment making industry in New York, much before the public nowadays by reason of the efforts of the save New York committee to move its base from the retail shopping dis- trict in the Fifth avenue section, is really one of the biggest assets the city has. Some 16,000 factories are op­ erated for tailoring, millinery, laun dering and other branches of work upon garments, employing more than 300.000 persons. Their output exceeds goods valued at $500,000,000 annually, aiding materially in making New York the leading manufacturing center of this country, Chicago, Philadelphia, St Louis, Boston and Cleveland following tn the order named. The Join the Pay Up Crowd. John D. Rockefeller often referred proudly to the fact that when he was making $25 a month he made it a point to pay all his bills promptly. He also managed to save a little money that later became the foundation of his great fortune. When you pay your bills promptly you know just where you are at. Pay up is becoming a na­ tional slogan. Cities and states have inaugurated pay up days and pay up weeks. The man who pays his bills when they are due feels better for It. There is no doubt that he makes the man he owes feel better. Do your part in the pay up campaign. Pay now. Pays His Men Each Day. Contractors In central Pennsylvania have solved the problem of keeping la­ bor on the job. The force of one con­ tractor who began paying his men off every day Instead of at the end of the week was so pleased with the arrange­ ment that it stuck by him. and other contractors have adopted the same plan. According to reports, the plan has met with success wherever tried.— Engineering Record.
