A li EPIDEMIC OF PEEPING TOMS
There has been a number of re­
port« of “Peeping Tow»" la Her-
mltxtn. P3Qwling around houses at
night and peeping in w'ndowt
while the occupants are preparing
for bed. In a few Instances the
prowler or prowlers have bqen seen
and chased away but at these times
identification has been impossible
At plhex times tracks under wlndowt
and jarious signs have betrayer1
th eli presence.
Last Wednesday night there wat
a lady left alone In the house. Upor
go'ng to the screen door to hook It
she wqs accosted by a man who ask
ed ff he might come In. The womai
ran Into the house and locked all t h e ,
doors and the prowler was frighten
ed givey- It was some time before
tha lady recovered from her fright
As in other Instances she was unabk
to give a descrlpton of the man ex
cept he was tall and slim and won
a black suit and a soft hat. Tht
man knew the woman was alone
and took advantage of the oppor
tuntty offered. There Is only on,
cure for moral degenerates of thle
hind and that is to vaccinate him
w'th, a good load of buckshot. A
man has the undeniable right to de
fend his home and If the beast waf
made a fit subject for the under
taker the person who performed th< I
deed would have a vote of thank:
coming from the community.

ZEROLENE helps win
the PA C K A R D CON TEST
In 1922 the City Motor Trucking Corn.

Oregon with its 4-ton Packard No. 180-
590. D uring the p erio d o f this con test
Zerolene oil w as u sed exclusively,
and the Company writes us as follows:
I n consequence of our success in thia contest, and be­
cause of our uniform satisfaction w ith the u se of Zero­
lene in all other equipment, we naturally consider
Zerolene as an absolutely dependable and correct lu ­
bricant. W e most cheerfully recommend it to any
and all truck operators to receive real efficiency in *
lubricating oils.”
‘
It is records like these that montii af­
ter month and year after year are cutting
the ground from under the superstition *
that there is something mysteriously
“better" about eastern oils, just because
they cost more.
Zerolene sales have increased seven­
fold in seven years. The more experi­
enced the motorist, the more .
likely he is to discover that the
Zerolene-lubricated car deliv­
ers better gasoline mileage,
accumulates less carbon, costs
less for upkeep, and has a
longer
working life.

The peak of the trend toward clt.
les has passed and there Is a silent
return to the land. For ten years
farmers have been leav ng the land
and production has decreased by the
los» of 4,000,000 farmers. Now the
building boom in cltleB Is off. F a c­
tories cannot keep going full handed
because the buying capacity of 40,-
000,000 farm people of the nation
has been reduced half. Even auto­
mobiles are slumping. Fat Jobs are
gone and the lig h wages of the fac.
tory, m ill and railroad are going
down. Men and their fam ilies must
return to agricultural communities
and sm all tracts where a living can
be more readily secured. The cow,

Big Advertising
Being Done
Northwest railroads and commer­
cial bodies of our big cities have an­
ticipated th e movement and have
been carrying on a big advertising
campaign througout the whole nation
for settlers and investors to come to
the northwest. The Oregon state
chamber has located ono colony.
The W ashington state chamber an­
other, of American Legion boys, at
W hite Bluffs, 60 of them, and want.
60 more. The Portland chamber
has inveet'gnted the conditions of
the big eastern clt le» and found peo­
ple ready to come to the farm,
enough to Justify a campaign. Quiet,
ly and mainly unobserved the tide
has been turning for weeks and act.

lng deeply for months leading to the
great farmward flood. The email
