THE PROPOSED DUAL GOVERNMENT
Recent agiUtion bit been instigated
in the interest of dual government
for the city and count; of Hood River,
The Glaier cannot claim the credit for
tbe idea, although the proposed plan of
making a thorough etady of each sue
ceasfu) sjstems elsewhere in tbe Unit
ed State meeti with our heartiest ap
proval, and we wish to announce to our
readers that me have etarted a cam
paign of investigation, and that our
findings from time to time, as they he
come available, will be published.
We think a dual government, if plena
ran be properly worked out, will be of
great benefit to Bood River county and
the eity of Hood River. Despite
breaches that have existed between
city'and rural factions.tbe interests of
the city and county are identical. We
see no reason why one set of officers
could not administer the affairs of both
and thus work a great saving to the
two municipal corporations. Hood
River county ia small and compact and
the system should prove juet as sue
ceaeful here aa in the city and county
of San Francisco, Calif., the affairs of
which are administered under a dual
government.
It has been insinuated tbat tbe Gla
cier, since it was so strongly opposed
not so very long ago to tbe City of
Utility, a scheme that met with each
an overwhelming defeat at the bands
of the voters, is inconsistent in foster
ing the present movement. But such
ia not tbe case. Those proposing the
City of Utility would have trebled the
expenses of the Hood River valley by
establishing three heads of govern
ments. Tbe City of Utility had gone
no further than the dream stage.
Those who voted for the City of Utility
would have saddled themselves witb
something entirely visionary. The pro'
posed combining of the city and county
-of Hood River must be worked out to
something practical. We wish to say
tbat . as yet we have endorsed no ulti
mate plans, but we do think tbat the
euggestion is worthy of consideration
and an effort toward practical solution.
HIGH SCHOOL SAVING SYSTEM
. The authorities and facuitiea of the
Hood River high schools and local
banks are to be commended for the new
systems establisbed for the teaching of
thrift to school children. The fact that
so many children of a certain school
have saved a total of a large amount
over a given time may be intereating,
but thia of iteelf may not be of any
groat benefit. We will see the bene
ficial results a score of years from now.
when the tots that are now the proud
possessors of system banks have be
come men and women of the commun
ity, that is, unless the savings system
runs a spasmodic course and is allowed
to die for lack of interest.
If children are taught to realize the
value of money from the time they
reach the age of understanding, it will
be one of the most valuable lessons
they have ever learned. Nor does
thrift mean stinginess. Nor ia it the
mere ability to save. The human being
that, has the attributes of thriftinees is
not prodigal. He looks ahead.
And if the school savings system, ae
adopted, is maintained with the proper
accompaniment of instructions from
teachers, students will have acquired
a habit that will be mighty handy
From childhood on through life they
will be "savers." After one haa be
come accustomed to other modes of
life, the habit of saving cannot be
acquired any too easily. You may say.
"Oh well, I'll begin tomorrow, or some
other specified time in the future to lay
aside something." That kind of saving
never puts any balance in the savings
departments of banks. Other habits
have become too strong. The drunk
ard, you kr.ow, is always just getting
ready to swear off. He never does it.
A CHURCH RECORD
The following is clipped from the
current issue of tbe Ladies Home Jour
nal :
Here is a record tbat church may
well point to with pride. It was sent
to me by the pastor of the West Pres
bj tetisn church, of St. Louis, the Rev
erend rrancis w. Kossell, D. D. :
"In the more than 25 years' history
or mis cnurco we nave never given an
entertainment or a euppt t ' for money,
nor nave we ever permitted such
thing as a fair or a bazaar. This
church believes in the consecration of
money as an act of worship just as
much as it believes in any other service
ior tne Lord."
Could any financial record of a church
be saner, or its belief better ei pressed?
uere in nve lines is the uoiden Rule.
financially speaking, for the American
church.
The Home Journal editor has thus
briefly presented a condition that is
burden to nearly every community of
the United States. We wonder if re
ligion is ever strengthened or the
treasury of churches really fattend ' by
ton f req'ient bataars, suppers or enter
tainments. A few zealoua members,
usually womeo, work themselves into a
state of utter fatigue. A slight profit
may be gained from tbe purses of the
genersl puhlie, but the oft-recurring
tenant event, although it may not
arouse a publicly expressed utterance
of resentment, throws a damper en en
thusiasm. In the end it will be found
that tha money that is raisedthat ia,
taking as an example the average
church money raising sv set comes
from tbe pockets of families directly
interested. Would it not be better to
make ths contribution direct in tbs
beginning?
DAVID A. TURNER
David A. Tomer, another of our pio
neers, has experienced the treat sdvsn
tare. "Unci Dsvy." as many of us
bad coma to call him, has trod for the
last time tbs streets of Hood River,
dispensing bis cheery greetings, snd
we will miss him. Tbs community
will miss btm, bis friends will miss
him snd bis church will miss him.
Uavid A. Turner was a man among
men. Hs wore tbe mantle of four
score years as gracefully aa many men
wear tbat of 60 years. But bs bsd lived
s full, clean life. But few men, how
ever, are aucb optimists as wss Mr,
Turner. Tbe struggles of frontier life
bsd not embittered bim. His spirits
were just aa strong after tbe battle of
wresting a home from ths wilderness
as when be began. He smiled ss hs
fought.
Many men are religious, in fact most
all are in some degree, although they
practice their religion in different
ways. Some are intolerant in their re
liefs. David A. Turner waa a religious
man, but his religion waa not a burden
to himself nor to those who came in
contact witb bim. His beliefs were a
solace to him, hot he questioned not
the solace that other men found in their
creeds, Mr. Turner believed in tbe
great principles of humanity. His
greatest joy, we think, waa garnered
from a communing witb nature. He
loved all things beatuiful created by a
beneficent providence, and we might
add that the songbirds for which bs had
provided a sanctuary around his home
will miss bim.
THE OREGONIAN ANNUAL
The New Year has come again and
witb it the Uregonian Annual, and we
dare say that steady readera of the
great daily by tbe thousands spent a
protGable snd entertaining hour or two
Monday, looking at tbe scores of extra
ordinarily good illustrations and in
perusing tbe comprehensive articles
that tell of Oregon's resources and in
dustries. The annual contains a com
prehensive summing up of tbe past
year's development, and at the aame
time it is prophetic of tbe future.
To many readers tbe Oregonian an
nual of 1917 probably beld in store
gratifying surprises. Although we may
follow events from day to day and may
watch the heralding of some grest en
terprise s growth, ws miss its magni
tude unlesa we have the comprehensive
totaling up, a characteristic that makes
the Oregonian annual valuable. Until
we read the New Year Annual we
failed to grasp the big scale on which
abip building is now being conducted
along the Lower Columbia river.
- Whatever may be the pursuit of life
of an Oregon citizen, be will do well to
lay aside his Oregonian annual, for it
will form a bandy reference work
throughout tbe next 12 months.
CHEAP
In the Oregonian Annual of Monday
Mark Woodruff, of Portland, has writ
ten of the" benefits tbe stats of Oregon
will derive from tbs proposed appropri
ation of a fnud of $25,000. which will
be combined witb an equal sum from
Washington and a sum of half that
amount from British Columbia and
used in a concentrated campaign of
advertising throughout the east and
middle west on the great scenic attrac
tions of the Northwest. Mr. Woodruff
haa worked out a table of tbe proper
tionate cost to each Oregon county
Hood River county, if tbe legislature
makes ths appropriation, will be called
on to pay $253. Multnomah's share of
the expense will be 18,654.
Situated as a hub of the scenic mid
Columbia rivet district, Hood River
will benefit greatly from tbs proposed
campaign of publicity. We cannot see
how a Hood River man, after reading
Mr. Woodruff's table of expense, can
very well be opposed to the proposed
plsn of raisingtbe publicity fund.
A SUGGESTION FOR ECONOMY
According to a dispatch from Salem
Secretary of State Olcott in bis forth'
coming biennial report will recommend
tbat steps be. taken toward secuting a
constitutional amendment and legists
tioo that will eliminate numerous elec
tions and result in throwing all munici
pal and school elections on the earns
day as the general elections. Figures
compiled by tbe secretary of state's
office show tbat during tbe years 1913
and 1914 elections cost taxpayers a
euro of almost a half million.
If Secretary Olcott's suggestions are
acted on, we believe that a great econ
omy can be worked. And perhaps a
greater interest can be created in mu
nicpal electiona if tbey fall on tbe
dates of general electiona. At least, a
larger vote will'be polled. The rounic
ipal elections of Hood River for the
past several vears, considered from'the
standpoint of electors visiting the
pulls, have been farces.
THE COUNTY'S NEW JUDGE
As a public official, our new county
judge, L. N. Blowers, ia not new to ths
people of Bood River. For two terms
Judge Blowers made an efficient and
successful mayor of the city of Hood
River. This may not, however, be
known to the newer residents of tbe
city and valley. Yet all Hood River
men know Mi. Blowera to be a careful,
honest, concert stive business man.
Mr. Blowers proposes to work toward
something that all of us desire in Hood
River, a harmonising of tbs different
factional elements, that have mads im
possible constructive action in the past
few years. It he succeeds he will have
accomplished much, and while it may
be that he was not ths choice of avert
ore, it behooves all to get behind ths
new judge end help push affairs -out of
ths old rut that hampered ths effect of
our work at horns and abroad.
We'll soon be planting our radishes
snd lettuce for tbe esrly garden. Seed
catalogues are already being delivered
by ths mail carrier, and ths bsndaoms
lithogrsphs bring dreams that do not
slwsya corns true. v
Tbe budget meeting last week had at
least one redeeming feature. Witb bet
a few exceptions city snd country citi-
tens were ss one in tbe expression of
desire for a roadmaater.

BUDGET MEET
DEBATES HOT
(Continued from First Page.)
they went into session Thursday night
following the public meeting, discov
ered tbat no necessity for application
of the pruning aheara existed. L. E.
Roberta, a Portland expert accountant
who haa audited the county books, told
the court tbat funda will beralaed irora
back taxes sufficient in quantity to al
low tbe full budget to aland aa pub
lished. It had been proposed to make
s heavy slash ot the county 'a road
funda. Thia item, however, will be
allowed to remain at $42,000.
In all probability, however, the
$42,000 road fund will bo tied up by
litigation between the city and county.
. While the eourt may lawfully raise
tbe road fund under the general fund,
it ia argued, aince the members of the
court stated tbat tbey would apportion
7U per cent or me runaa raised in eacn
regularly established road district to
tbe respective district, that a court of
equity will enforce the court to make s
like diatnoulion or tunas raised from
tbe assessment of city property, and if

KOLSTAD IS NOW
ELECTRICS OWNER
Art Kolstad is now sole owner ot tbe
Electric theatre. Mr. Kolstad pur
chased the interest of Walter Shay in
tbe popular Electric playhouse a little
less than a year ago. tie and Mrs
Kolstad have been active in the devel
opment ot the institution. In addition
to the display of appealing picturea of
sucn standard producers as mangle
and Paramount companies, the Electric
under the management of the KolBtads
and verh Wbitcomb has made a fea
ture of music.
Mrs. Kolstad draws many patrona to
tbe Electric by the excellency of pipe
organ and piano music, while her hue
band is an expert with traps and
drums.
Vein Wbitcomb, tbe retiring member
ol the old Electric firm, has been a val
uable associate for Mr. Kolstad. Mr.
Wbitcomb is versed in all aides of the
moving picture game, having worked
bis way up from the projecting room
The team work of tbe former firm has
put the Electric at the front in picture
dom.
Hail tbe Oregon Mist
(From the Oregonian)
It ia natural for the rain to fall in
January in Western Oregon. Snow is
pure and beautiful. The sunshine which
followed it Sunday waa gorgeous. But
the east wind had brought its aches
and snuffles. Tbe human body seems
to adapt itself to nature's normal mood.
So it is said that aches snd snuffles,
which defied drugs snd physicians when
Oregon nature was on a holiday, are
dissipated by Oregon Mist.
Let us bope that Indian George who
ever be may be who predicted a hard
winter, misread the signs. To make
an honest confession, we have small
faith in Indian weather lore. Indian
weather predictions come about some
thing like this:
White Brother "Good morning,
George."
Indian George "Ugh."
I White Brother-"Going to be a herd
winter, George?"
Indian George-"Ugb."
White Brother -"Good day, George."
Indian George-"Ugh."
When this edifying conversation
reaches tbe public it appears that In
dian George has said that the Hab'are
seeking deep boles, that tbe rabbits
have taken on an extra coat of fur.
that tbe squirrels have laid by great
stores of nuts, that tbs bears went to
bed three weeks early, and that the
moss crop is unusually prolific-all be
ing certain tokens to tbe observant
Indian tbat snow and ice are to seal
land and stream.
We are not acquainted with Indian
George. But if we were, we doubt
that we would place more credence up
on his prophetic powers than we do
upon those of tbe Rev. lrl R. Hicks.
Tbe thing to be admired about the
Rev. Hicks is tbat bs gives us variety.
But who ever heard of Indian George
predicting anything but a bard winter?
Anyhow, thank God for tbe rain !

N.W. FRUIT EXCHANGE
OFFERS $100 PRIZE
For weeks oast, or to be more ac
curate, aince the first announcement of
tbe contest in tbe Literary Digest of
November 18, the American public haa
been turning over and over in its mind
the extaordmary and wonderful picture
advertisement of "Skookum" apples
which appears elsewhere in this issue.
It is safe to say that milliona bave
been attracted by the advertisement,
and have been "suggested" or per
suaded into thinking over and over
what a good title for it would be. The
Northwestern Fruit Exchange now
comes out, as will be seen by the ad
vertisement herein, witb an invitation
to fruit growers and their wives and
everyone of the Northwest to compete
in this interesting contest. Ibe ex
change will distribute $100 in cash
prizea and tbe lucky winners will no
doubt have the satisfaction of seeing
their title used in publications the
United States over. It is a priae con
test in which tbe growers themselves
csn well sfford to take a part-it ia all
in the way of boosting the Northwest
apple, and it would be an interesting
thing if a priae or two were captured
by the growers themselves. Every
body willrecognize ia his "Skookum"
contest picture tbe"Gold Dust twins,"
the ."Dutch Boy Painter." the "Cream
of Wheat" chef, and other national
figures in advertising. Tbe picture baa
been very favorably commented on, it
ia reported, by professional advertising
men, and in tact haa caused something
of a sensation in the advertising world.

sevan yeara previous to coming to Hood
River Mr. Robertson waa connected
with the Grand Ronde Lumber Co. in

Mr. Robertson will await several

Start the New Year Right
by Ordering a Hardie
Power Sprayer
We don't want to holler "wolf", but in'the face
of a rising market on all kinds of steel being used in
machinery, there is bound to be a raise in price be
fore the big season starts.
Even now, it is impossible to get any brass lined
spray rods. The large factories in the East, which
have been rolling the brass for these rods, refuse to
take any further orders. Aluminum rods will be the
general thing this year.
By giving us your order today for a Power
Sprayer, you are making a good move, because we
guarantee the price as quoted today, but cannot guar
antee the price for tomorrow. We will enter into an
agreement with you to protect the price as quoted
today against a raise or against a decline. So you
have everything to gain and nothing to lose by sign
ing an order now.
And in face of the car shortage, which evidently
is not a "wolf" cry, but an actual fact, as you can
verify in any newspaper, wouldn't it be a wise move
to give your order now, and pass the buck to us on
delivery? No telling what the situation in cars may
be this coming Spring anything might happen. But
if you are assured that we have your machine right
in our store, waiting for the day when you want it,
don't you think that ordering today would give you a
rather comfortable feeling?
We have the various sizes on our floor, ready to
demonstrate them to you. Right now is as good a
time as you'll find to come in and look them over.
As the advertisement in ''Life" says,
"Obey that impulse".
