WE WILL ABIDE BY FINAL RUING
Let the Columbia River Highway
. J; aI iL.
eaai 01 nere go airecuy up me miu
bis. corse. The road is a tranacontl
entaf one. It serves the nation and
state as well as Hood River, and we
mustn't be selfish by asking that the
route be detoured through our orch
ards, of which we are naturally proud.
We can solve the problem of getting
motor tourists to stop and take a look
at scenery and pastoral views simply
by providing a comiortame, commodi
ous automobile camp at some point on
the Heights or south of the city. By
all means t he camp must not be placed
along the low levels.
We are sorry that the above, appear
ing in the Glacier of Thursday, July
26, was twisted into a misinterpreta
tion and thus resulted in needless
worry on the part of a few of our citi
zens. The hot season is no time for
worries, and even the ghost of a cause
for extra brain duty deserves to be
"gassed" during the months of July
and August.
Still the Glacier has no apology to
offer for the editorial remarks of July
26. A general impression was prevail
ing here at the time the brief comment
was made, to the effect that the State
Highway Commission had in effect
chosen the river route to the east of
here for the Columbia River Highway.
While most of the citizens of the com
munity with whom we cauBually dis
cussed the matter were ready to ac
cept without complaint such a ruling,
we heard a few who opposed, arguing
that the road should penetrate the
Hood River valley as far as the gravel
pit on the East Side. Our editorial
remarks, at the time of their utter
ance, were directed to that last class
of men.
It is an admitted fact by all Hood
River men, and the Glacier is of the
same mind, that it will be greatly to
our advantage to so locate the scenic
highway that the motor tourist will
have an opportunity, without any ex
tra exertion, of beholding the out
spread sea of apple trees, the fruit of
which has brought the state much
fame. But we will say again that the
matter of the location rests entirely
with the State Highway Commission
And we know that the Hood River val
ley has never had a better friend than
S. Benson, chairman of this same com'
mission. We have faith in Mr. Benson
and his associates, and we will abide
by their ruling. We know that Hood
River will get a fair deal.
.The people of the Hood River valley,
however, must not forget themselves.
It must be remembered that the Co
lumbia River Highway is to be con
structed to serve the state and nation
as well as Hood River and it will be
located accordingly. The meeting held
at the Commercial club last Thursday
evening, when a committee was ap
pointed to confer with the members of
the Highway Commission and truly
represent the Hood River viewpoint,
may result in the realization of the in
nermost hopes of all of us and it may
not. If the commission persists in lo
eating the route of the Highway east
of this city along the river instead of
detouring over the canyon top and thus
bringing the road to the edge of the
orchards, let us hope that nobody is
disgruntled.
Roy D. Smith's suggestion about the
letters to our boys is one that we
should all endorse and practice. Let
the boys from home know that you are
proud of them and thinking of them.
KIMBALL BROS. BUY
NEW BEAN TRACTOR
Kimball Bros, have purchased from
D. McDonald, local agent for the Bean
Sorav PumD Co.. one of their new trac
tors, and after a thorough demonstra
tion of the new orchard implement
they are advertising for the sale of
their horses. The ranchers, whose
place is between summit and Udell.
declare that the tractor, where the
orchardist has 40 acres or more to cul
tivate, is a boon.
The tractor, seen at work by numer
ous vaney orcnardists, has made a last
ing impression, and several other sales
will probably follow soon. The Bean
people for years have been experiment'
ing with tractors, but not until this
season did they have a machine that
they would permit to go on the mar
ket.
HILL AND PARTY SEE
TROUBLES OF I. W. W.
M. M. Hill, who has just returned
from a motor trip to Crater Lake, tells
or an interesting experience at Klam
ath Falls.
"We happened to be in Klamath
rails lust at the time the I.'W. W
troubles were at their climax," says
Mr. Hill. "Not knowing of the strin
gent measures that were being put
mo eum uy miinonues to quell me
agitators, we were bowling along in
our car, preparatory to leaving town,
when an armed guard halted us. We
were not allowed to leave Klamath
Falls until we had seen the sheriff and
secured a pass."
Mr. Hill has great praise for the
scenery of Crater Lake, but he de
clares that he returns home convinced
that no scenic region of the Northwest
excels the Mid-Columbia.

ODELL U. II. S. WILL
OPEN ON AUGUST 27
Odell high school will begin its first
full term in the new high school build
ing August 27. The directors have
spared no labor or expense in prepar
ing for the coming year's work. In
addition to the courses offered last
year, they have added a commercial
course, including shorthand, typewrit
ing and other commercial subjects ; also
a domestic science course.
Teachers' of exceptional ability have
been secured. Prof. V. M. Vose, pnn
cipal, of the school, needs no special
mention, as his work in the district for
the past three years speaks for itself.
Miss Jane Thickens, of Seattle, a grad
uate of the University of Washington,
who has specialized in home economics
and commercial work, will teach the
subjects for which her special training
has made her most efficient. Miss
Thickens has had five years of experi
ence and her work is highly recom
mended. Miss Anna II. Johnson, also
a graduate of the University of Wash
ington, will teach German, English,
botany and history. Miss Johnson has
lived one year in a German speaking
family and has tutored in German at
the U. or W.
With such an efficient corps of teach
ers, a new and spacious building well
equippd, the Odell Union High School
is prepared to raise its last year's en
rollment of 50 to 75 or more. Pupils
living in the country need no longer
feel that they must give up their hopes
of a complete high school education
because they live so far from Hood
River.

I APPLE NOTES J
I -H i 1 1 H-M '"I"l"M"H"M"I"H"I"li,l,r
The fancy apple and pear trade of
the United States will proht immense
ly after the war by the new markets
that are being developed in South
America, according to the report of
an investigation conducted by the Bu
reau of Foreign and Domestic Com
merce. Since the harvest of 1914 the
American apple has been established
as supreme in both Brazil and Argen
tina, and its sale is limited at persent
only by the number of persons able to
pay the high price asked for it. ihis
price is largely influenced by excessive
charges for transportation, which will
reduced in normal times, and thus
?reatly increase consumption of our
ruit. Our only competition from
Europe will be in the cheaper grades,
the author of the report declares.
New Zealand and Tasmania, however,
are likely to claim a share of the gen
eral business because their harvest
comes in our off season. The Oregon
ian. Association Makes Berry Returns
The Apple Growers Association of
Hood River lias completed the most
successful strawberry season, In dol
lars and cents, that it has ever had.
Following is the Hut of the various
pools showing the dates and the
average price realized, this price be
ing absolutely net to the Association,
after paying all brokerage and sell
ing costs and does not include any
ralroad claims, but is the actual net
money received and which is being
distributed to the growers.

Sewage Odor Brings Apology
"It's the odor from a clogged outfall
sewer," was the rejoinder of local
Deonle Saturdav to the invest.iirat.infr
sniffs of visitors to the city. The out
let of the sewer has been stopped by
debris washed down by the freshet of
the Columbia river, the waters of
which have now receded and left ex
posed great Quantities of sewaere.
While the smell for several davs had
aroused complaints from residents of
the northwestern part of town, the
foul odors did not invade the business
district until Saturday, when the wind
shifted.
The smell of sewage was a worry to
many tenants of business buildings.
who in several instances, not knowing
the source of the bad odors had begun
investigation of premises, expecting
possibly to unearth a dead rat or cat.
It appears that the odors that an
noyed the people last week did not
come from a clogged sewer at all, but
have been traced to the half mile of
vinegar factory refuse piled along the
lowlands.
The receding waters of the Columbia
left the "pummies" wet through by
the soaking flood, and fermentation
taking place created the unpleasant
bouquet of smells. The hot sunshine
has dried off the top of the refuse, and
tne otiors are no more.

Smith Suggests Frequent Letters
Roy D. Smith has launched a cam
paign to raise funds with which to
purchase a small leather bound pocket
diary ror each of the enlisted men
from Hood River county. Mr. Smith
is also urging all local people to write
frequent Tetters to boys of the service
whom they know.
"I know from experience," says Mr.
Smith, "that nothing is more
cheering to a boy in the service than
letters from home. And I know that
little diaries, well bound and leather
covered, such as will just fit the poc
ket of an olive drab coat, will be
mightily appreciated bv our soldier
boys.

Gem WLI dose Four Days Weekly
Beginning next Monday, the Gem
theatre, now managed by Arthur Kol
sUd, will remain closed four days each
week. The theatre will be opened as
usual for matinees and evening per
formances each Friday, Saturday and
Sunday.
"We do not feel that there la any
call for two shows the first four days
of the week during the hot season,
when ao many people are away on va
cations, ".says Mr. Kolstad. "The Gem
will therefore be closed part of the
time. When it is operated, we assure
the public that we will try to have the
beat shows procurable."
H annum Road Praised
Numerous local men who have re
cently visited the completed section of
a new road that will connect the Mount
Hood snowline wth roads of the Upper
valley, declare that the route zar sur
passes their expectations.
"The new road, so far as built, is
well constructed.'' savs D. G. Cruik-
shank, who motored over the new'
highway. "The grade at no point ex
ceeds 10 per cent.
The new mountain road is being pro
moted by Commissioner Hannum, who
raised funds by subscription last year.
Motorists can now ride on the new
route to a point a mile and a half from
snow fields.

Wild and extravagant claims to the effect that all merchandise has advanced almost beyond reason is
being hailed broadcast. It is true many merchants are taking advantage of the present situation to secure
unreasonable and abnormal profits. This we do not propose to do. We have never taken advantage of
our customers and we are not going to start now.
We buy our merchandise direct from the mills and manufacturers in large quantities and are indepen
dent and not subject to the excessive charges of the middleman or jobber which the one-store merchant is
forced to pay. For this reason we can furnish Better Merchandise for Less Money on any market and on a
market like the present Much Better Merchandise for Much Less Money. We propose to protect our
trade to the extent of our ability and shall do so by selling the thousands of dollars worth of new and dependa
