Concerning
a testimonial
from a
visiting duck
ONLY THE other day a
duck no relative of Don
ald Duck, bat equally critical
dropped In at a Standard Sta
tion in Seattle for a drink.
Startled by an approaching
car, be suddenly 8ew straight
through a window-pane into a
rest-room.
It's too bad he couldn't ap
preciate bis immaculate and
well appointed surroundings,
for a duck never used a more
praiseworthy rest-room for any
purpose whatev er. But that win
dow blow befuddled him so
that he needed some trifling
first-aid from Manager J. F.
Beany before he could fly away.
Brother Duck has not been
back. Yet we feel secure in the
claim that since seeing our rest
room ht has visaed no other.
That's the attitude of thousands
of motorists who long ago be
came convinced that if anything
in the way of service is worth
while, Standard will provide it.
This is an assumption not the
result of accident but of experi
ence. When the public takes for
granted that in services as well
as products Standard will al
ways be equal to the best
that's reputation. Since a busi
ness concern can have no greater
asset, it's our constant aim to
live up to the great expectations
of the public

into the matter and report in
formation obtained.
700 Packers Used
Mr. Hendrickson called upon
superintendents of the different
packing plants, investigated
means and methods of conduct
ing such a school, found that
about 700 packers were used at
the peak of the season. It was
thought that the school should
have a good instructor, that each
packing plant should furnish a
small percentage of their Bart
letts each day while the school
was In session.
It is estimated 20.000 boxes
of Bartletts will be packed
through the school. Superinten
dent of the school was to have
no connection with any packing
plant, and the fruit was to be
marketed under a neutral wrap
and label,
An advisory board was to be
appointed for the school. With
fruit packed and labels on, it
was then to be out of the hands
of the school and ready for mar
keting. It was thought the
school should conduct a three
year program to sufficiently pre
pare students.
Mr. Hendncksen s report was
accepted and all agreed that val
ley people only should be ac
cepted as students.
Jobs Assured
Heads of packing plants
agreed to use the student packers
and a revolving fund of $500
was voted to start the school
In the project the Rogue River
Traffic association joined with
the Fruit Growers' league in
making funds available to start this morning. The blaze was dis

Alert action by Harry Ellis
was credited by Chief Roy El
liott today with averting what
might have been a serious fire
in the Liberty building at West
Main and Grape streets early
this morning.
When Ellis, employed at the
Model Bakery in the Liberty
building, saw flames shooting
up through a grating in the
sidewalk on the South Grape
street side of the building, he
telephoned the fire department.
The chemical crew dashed to
the building and when firemen
arrived they found the wooden
sill of the basement aperture
on fire. The biaze was put out
quickly but Chief Elliott said
that if there had been any de-1 J
lay there might have been a
serious fire.
Odd bits of paper and other
burnable trash had collected
under the gratings along the
side of the building and some
one evidently dropped a match
or cigarette into the grate as
he passed by. Chief Elliott said.
Smoke from the blaze was
drawn into ventilators and cir
culated through the building
where the odor of burning ma
terial was still noticeable late
the bill, which proposes regis
tration of all males from 18 to
65, would oppear tomorrow.
One point on which army of
ficials were said to disagree
with the Burke-Wadsworth bill
was the SVa-month pay rate it
fixes for men selected for train
ing. The high command was re
ported favoring Instead the
present $21 basic pay of army
privates.
Representatives of 22 col
leges and universities voted
unanimously at New York yes
terday to support this bill, and
also asked extension of reserve
training units to colleges which
do not have them.
