Personal Service Dentistry
Maybe you have asked yourself, "How can Dr, Post do
his dental work at a price not increased over that of large
offices in Portland?"
This is a question very easy to answer.
I give you personal service and thus save the expense of
having someone else do the work for me,
Still I purchase the best material to be setfured from the
large dental supply houses in Chicago. I pay cash and thus
get cash discounts, another saving for my customers.
By paying cash for your work you also save money.
"
Certainly, my price list is the same as the big Portland
dentistry concerns.

The Press Is King
A puny thing ,
Is any king
Longside a printing press.
They dread its roar
Far more than war.
They've reason to, we guess.
Kings come and go
In'life's big show.
And no one cares a rap.
But presses run
From sun to sun
And never take a.nap.
Kings head a state -
And claim they're great ,
Because of royal birth. . ,
It makes us smile,
For all the while
T'is the press that rules the esrth.

WASCO BOND PROS
PECTS ARE GOOD
Prospects for a fsvorable vote at a
proposed bond election in the neighbor
ing county of Wasco are good, accord
ing' to J. A. Elliott, engineer of the
State Highway Commission, wbo has
completed a survey of the Columbia
river highway from thia city to Biggs
and wbo waa here last Fridsy.
"It really looks as though the Wasco
voters were going to tske some de
cisive action," aaid Mr. Elliott. "Tbey
propore to vote an issue of bonds, the
definite amount of which has not yat
been settled, to put in condition a tem
porary east extension of the Columbia
river highway over Seven Mile bill
east of Mosier. A portion of the funds
will be expended on county roads south
of The Dalles."
Mr. Elliott atatea that the Columbia
river highway will ultimately extend
along the river, and his survey has been
made over that route. However, be
has msde two side surveys over Seven
Mile hill. One of these, up Dry Creek,
will reduce the old grade of 12 per cent
in places to e msximora of five per
cent After the through route has been
built the Seven Mile bill road will ac
commodate a large area of agricultural
land in tbe east Wasco district. The
survey made by Mr. Elilott and hia
crew of men on the east side of Seven
Mile hill is over a route of a seven per
cent maximum grade. The existing
rosd there is 15 per cent in places.
The State Highway Comiasion has
promised that the sum of $90,000 will
be expended this year on the Columbia
river highway between thia city and
Mosier.rprovided Wssco county votes a
bond issue to assist in the construction
of roads east of. Mosier.
AT THE GEM TODAY
Increase in Municipal Electric Light and
Power Rates at Ellensburg
The inability to make the municipal
lighting plant at Ellensburg pay ex
penses has resulted in the city fathers
increasing the lighting and power rates
in that community. The new rates will
go into effect in March.
A great number of outstanding street
lighting department warrants is given
as tbe reason for the change. War
ranta have been outstanding for nearly
three years and cannot be paid by the
department unless additional funds are
brought in through the new rates. It
is the intention of the electric light
committee, which, with the assistance
of E. L. Butler, fixed the new rates to
gut the lighting plant on a paying
asis.
The Ellensburg plant has been run
for aeveral years on low rates and baaj
been used as an advertising feature on
the avdantagca of municipal ownership.
The plant became buried under a mon
ument of debt and the people of Ellens
burg awoke to tbe fact that they would
have to charge higher prices or let the
town go dark.
The new rates are 10 cents a kilowatt
hour, net, for the first 60 kilowatt
hours. This is somewhat higher than
aimilar rates in Walla Walla and' North
Yakima. The power ratea begin at six
cents a kilowatt hour, which are near
ly twice the power rates in the Yakima
and Walla Walla valleys. Business
customers are required to make a meter
deposit of $10; power customers $10;
residential lighting customers $5, and
heating and cooking customers $5.
The Yakima Kepubilc comments sar
castically upon tbe condition of the city
which leta its enthusiasts plunge it
into debt.
Frosts Strike Valley
Light frosts prevailed over the Hood
River valley Wednesday and Thursday
evenings of last week. Except a neg
ligible damage to strawberries in the
Upper Valley and higher levels of tbe
Lower Valley, no damage was caused.
Smudge pots did duty Thursday night
in one of the largest pear orchards of
tbe community, owned by W. W.Swick.
"'I feel now that the expense of
smudging wss useless," said Mr. Swick
Friday, "but I wanted to play safe."
The frost of Thursday ' night was
heavier than that of Wednesday night.

"Hunting Big Game in the Canadian
Rockies and Alaska." '
Arthur J. Aylesworth, the well
known American sportsman, naturalist
and big game hunter, spent nearly two
years on a gigantic expedition into the
great uinhabited waste and mountain
ous regions of far northern Canada and
Alaska, covering some 3,000 miles of
travel, over unknown trails with pack
horse,, canoe and dog team, braving
death from wild beasts and suffering
untold hardships from exposure in order
that this wonderful entertainment
might be given to the world. On this
expedition Mr. Aylesworth was suc
cessful in securing exceptional pictures
of practically every species of North
American big game in their native
haunts, showing the methods of hunt
ing same, their habits, etc The pic
tures are resplendent with most won
derful and beautiful outdoor scenery,
and abound in startling and sensational
incidents throughout, transporting one
in rspid fire succession from the high
est snow capped peaks of tbe Canadian
Rockies, through dense forests and
over raging rivers, to the desolate bar
ren grounds of the northern sub-Arctic
prairies. Unquestionably they are the
most marvelous motion pictures of wild
animal life ever photographed, and
show tremendous skill and patience on
the part of the camera men who ac
companied the expedition.
In the presentation of this unique
picture, a little more than 5,000 feet of
film is shown upon the screen, depicting
a wonderous tale of the lure and fascin
ation of big game hunting, teeming
with excitement, interest and educa
tion. Tuesday
