. e--ssPwSi .- -T' HOOD RIVElt GLACIER THURSDAY, JANUARY 27, 191G ONE JAR MIS-LABELED CAUSE OF NOISE According to C. N. Ravlin, of this city, who was chief of horticulture for the Oregon Commission ai me rana ma-Pacific International Exposition, The recent noise made by the Buaineia Men's Association, of The Dalles, be cause of an alleged use made of Wasco county fruit at the ban Francisco fair by the Willamette Valley, arose over the erroneous labeling 01 a single jar of processed Bing cherries. "1 discovered the mistake." says Mr. Havlin, "when we were preparing to return the fruit to the different state points. "It was a well known fact. however, that the Willamette Vallej made use of Mosier apples. The Wil lamette people stated that they were unable to secure any ol their own iruu and that it was necessary to get the apples from MoBier, this district having the only available stocks." Mr. Ravlin says that the cherries were exhibited in the Oregon building. All other exhibits from The Dalles, he declares, were properly labeled and placed according to instructions from home. "To complete their display of ara of Tokay grape", " says Mr. Kav in. "which were Disced accord in if to ins(rcutions at entrances to the Oregon Palace of Horticulture, I added 3o inch jats of fruit belonging to the Oregon Commission." Mr. Ravlin thinks that the Wasco county club shows bad form in the complaints, since the State Commission added to the business Mens Association display 20 cans of exhibits belonging to the state. Mr. Kavlin has photo graphs showing how Wasco county exhibits were placed. WEBER'S WORK IS PRAISED BY FELLOWS W. G. Weber, Sr., who was in Port land last week attending the North western Harness Manufacturers' Con vention, of which he is a director, took with him some of his work, in order that he might compare his prices with those charged by other members of the organization. "1 found," he says, "that my prices, especially on strap work were lower than any of my asso ciates." Although the work displayed by Mr. Weber was taken from his stock, it was declared by the harness men tobe the nicest and best they had seen turned out of a shop. This speaks vol umes for the local man, for the con vention was attended by delegates from Montana, Idaho, Washington and Oregon. While the leather obtainable today is not as good as that of a score of years ago, Mr. Weber is using the best ma terial obtainable, despite.high prices. Stamps on Deed Cost $186 The deed, transferring the properties of the Hydro-Electric Co. to the Pacific Power & Light Co., reciting that the purchase price was $186,000, was filed for recording with County Clerk Kent Shoemaker yesterday. The considera tion for the transfer is the largest of any deed tiled with the local clerk since the inauguration of the War tax last year, the document having been plas tered with $186 worth of revenue stamps. The assessed valuation of the prop erty, set by the State Tax'Commission for the year, is but $44,700. LOCAL BUICK MAN GIVEN SHOW POINTERS E. W. Birge, who with J. F. Vol i tor IT, of the Heights Garage, handles Buick business for this county, has banded us an interesting article tbat will be of benefit to those who may he in attendance this week at the Port land Automobile Show, which will end Saturday night. The directions are taken from the current Buick Bulletin "Any person who baa had experience with motor cars will approve the state ment that the most important thing to look for in a motor car is the motor, says the writer of the article. "Nobody who really knows will dis pute the statement that the motor contains more possibilities for pleasure and satisfaction and disappointment than any other part or the motor car, "One of the most important elements of motor car construction is the bat ance of the various parts. In the good motor ear the relation of the parts to each other has a tremendous bearing on the question whether the car is a good car or not. If the motor is too heavy for its supporting structure the car is not a good car. If the rear axle is too light, then the whole car is poorly made. "Ihere must be a perfect balance between the parts, and no man can tell whether that balance is right simply by looking at the car. "The best guide for the would-be purchaser of a motor car is to make inquiries from users of the car. "You can't learn all about a motor car from looking at it at the show booth, but you can find out anything you wish to know about it by consult ing the mep and women who have used it. "You can tell more about a make of motor cars from their history than you can from their appearance on the booth floor at the show. "And in this respect there is one thing about the Buick Valve-in-Head motor car that goes further to prove the superiority of this car than any thing we could say, and that is: The fact that a higher percentage of Buick users give repeat orders for fiuicks than any other car. When the Buick user gets ready to buy a new car he invariably buys another Buick." The article also explains in detail the es sential parts of a motor, its treatment and the extended use it will provide if properly handled. Copies of the bulle tin can be had free of charge at the Buick booth. The company is featuring the Valve-in-Head motor on its various models. The roadsters form a conspicuous part of the display, showing the many im provements made during the last year. the roadsters and touring cars range from $950 to $1,485, and the coupes and inside drive sedans from $1,350 to $1,875. Parent-Teacher Association Meeting The regular meeting of the Parent- Teacher's Association was held at the High School last Thursday evening. A musical program was rendered by Miss Ella Niehans, Miss Dorothy Hand, Mrs. C. O. Huelat and'a chorus of girls and boys of the seventh and eighth grades. M. S. Pitman, of the State Normal College, gave a most interesting talk on "The Factors Which Make up a Model school. There was a splendid attendance and all enjoyed the evening. Parents are urged to be present at these meetings and become better ac quainted with the work of the asocia-tion. n MTT Easy to Handle i Costs Less 3 Always the Same SOLUBLE SULPHUR (COMPOUND) You Sprayed For Scale Lst Season.

Last Friday Coach Co hoon took Capt. Johnson, LaSerty, Breed, Hale, Robbina and Nickelsen to Uoldendale. The team didn't arrive there until after nine o'clock in the evening, and without having bad any thing to eat since breakfast lime, were reqiured to walk about a mile and play the basketball game, which they lost 40-10. On Saturday evening the game started off a little different and for the first ten minutes the local quintet played the others off their feet, but somehow they couldn't follow up the lead probably because of a lack of wind, because they were beaten again not quite so bad but 36-18. Monday morning the letter men of the past football season held a meeting and elected Leon Bentley captain for the 1916 season. The psst year he won his letter while holding down the diffi cult berth of end. It is being rumored that he wlil try out for the backfield next year, but there is no known au thority for this. He weighs 140 pounds and is rather fast on his feet, which is very good for a high school team. M. S. Pitman, representing the State Normal School at Monmouth, visited the school last Friday and delivered a very interesing lecture on "What Can I do?" He is undoubtedly the most enthuisastic and interesting speaker tbat has visited the school this year, and when he tours the state again as he is doing at present, his visit will be most heartily welcomed. The new students that have entered school this last semester are Dayton McLucaa, Robert Henderson and Ken neth Hicks. It has been reported that Hicks is a good pitcher, and for this reason his coming to the school will be regretted by no one, to say the least. The second basketball team organ ized Monday and elected Floyd Wright captain. Ihey have scheduled a few games already and expect to play this season teams at Odell, Mosier, Cascade Locks and White Salmon beside the regular high school varsity. Tomorrow both the boys' and girl's teams go to Stevenson, Wash. This is the girl's only game. At least it is the only game that Manager Betty Epping has been able to secure. Capt. vera Laf ferty was a star player last year, and it is rather a shame that she will not have a chance to gain more glory in her last year in high school. The freshman class entertained the sophomores in a party given at Library hall last Saturday night. Everyone present reported a very enjoyable time. A student body meeting was held Tuesday morning, which was i.i accord ance with the by-laws of the constitu tion, anil the Literary Society officers weie elected for the ensuing semester. Miss Mae Shay was elected president, Paul Lancaster, secretary and Lester Fisher, manager. Mrs. Chss. Castner, president of the Oregon Federation of Women's Clubs, visited the school Tuesday morning and delivered a short but interesting ad dress on the Scholarship Loan Fund Day. Work is progressing splendidly on the operetta. Each member uf the caste is now earnestly studying his or her part, and altogether things look promising, according to Wm. Chandler. Or. Samuel McChord Crothers, of Cam bridge, Mass., will visit Hood River on February 11 and Supt. McLaughlin urges all high school students to attend hia lecture. It is a rare occasion for the students to hear a man of bis type. He is the author of the humorous and imaginative story, "Miss Muffets's Christmas Party," which is well known to the juvenile readers. Lastly, his message may be heard for the paltry sum of 35 cents. The next Parent-Teacher Association meeting will be Thursday, Feb. 24. GILBERT & DEWITT READY-FOR SPRING Gilbert & DeWitt. whose place of buisness is in the Nickelsen block on Cascade avenue, are making ready for the spring, when the Columbia river highway will be opened. The office has been removed from the front of the building to the rear, and trussing has been placed under the main floor. thus strengthening it, which will have a storage capacity for 20 cars. While the company has always carried a full line of accessories, which will be con tinued in stock, the Btorage of cars will be an innovation. The entrance has been widened, and a driveway di rectly into the building provided. The company has ordered four Over lands, for which they are local agents. The shipment, which will consist of three Model 83s, 35 horse power, and one Model 75, will arrive about Febru ary 15. Gilbert & DeWitt are now showing a complete line of sprayers, having on display live different sized machines. APPLE NOTES The Dufur Orchard Co-Owners com pany is the name of the new organiza tion which has been formed by the Dufur Orchard company of that city, and which will prove to be of great benefit to the various owners of tracts in the 7000-acre orchard 10 miles from The Dalles. The entire orchard, 4000 acres of which has been planted to trees, will be under one management. BIRTHS Born To Mr. and Mrs. C. D. Mow- era, on Tuesday, January 18, a daugh ter.

Patterson, of the East Side, who was a charter member of the Mosier club, is busy in the or ganization of the local men. The United States war department will furnish to every five members of the proposed club a carbine, and 120 rounds of shells will be distributed annually to each man. Targets will be furnished. Furthermore all makers of ammunition will furnish the club with supplies at factory prices. Any one between the ages of 16 and 45 years may become members of the organiza tion, the annual dues of which are 50 cents. j..H..H.,H.,H,.1H,t,l,.H.,IT1iI.,iH1.. MA'S, FIRS AM) FEATHERS f H..H..H..1-H..H-I-M-H-H-H.H-H-H- During the course of the season local people and their visitors, while on fish ing excursions and when hunting in the mountains, have many interesting ex periences. The Glacier will be very glad to have fishermen and hunters give an account of their experiences to this column of the paper. If you hear n story or a good joke, report it. The call of the wilderness has capti vated George and Charles Stanton, sons of D. E. Stanton, a local Civil War veteran, who recently removed from the Upper Valley to engage in gardening and truck growing on prop erty within the city limits. The for mer son, who has a homestead in Lake county, spends the winters trapping and hunting coyotes. Since winter has begun he has, according to a letter written his father, bagged 90 coyotes and more than 30 bobcats. The sale of the pelts of these animals, together with the bounties received on them and returning from other furs, will net the young man a large sum. Charles Stanton, who resided for a time in Portland, has made trapping a profession. He is near Clayton, Ida., in the Saw Tooth mountains. Catch ing a black fox occasionally and musk rats by the hundreds, he will probably more than double the profits of his brother for the season. Watching 7,000,000 young salmon fry during the extreme cold weather re cently was the task of men at the United States Government Salmon hatchery at Hood, Wash. The little fish were brought through the cold in good condition, according to Aaron Larson, a member of the hatchery force who was in the city last week. The Hood hatchery has already dis tributed 22,000,000 salmon fry this sea son. There was real sorrtfw in the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Robertson last week, when "Ted," the black cocker spaniel pup, after a short illness from influenza, passed away. "Ted," tLe playmate of Mr. and Mrs. Robertson's two boys and little girt, was Badly missed. The grief of childhood over a dead canine playmate ! It is one of the bitter things of life, but few grown upa will fail to sympathize with the Kobertson youngsters in their grief over the death of "Ted."
