owned by 11. C. Wyatt, of Mount Hood,
plunged down a 25 per cent grade on
Seventh street and demolished the rear

trol at the top of the steep street. Al
though he stayed by his car, frantically
trying to apply the brakes, the big
machine gained great momentum and
was traveling 3D miles an hour when
it jumped an embankment and tore in
to the Frohn kit 'her1. Fortunately all
members of the family were in the
front of the house.
Mr. Wyatt was knocked from his
seat as the truck struck. His injuries
were limited to slight bruises.

LIBERTY ORGANIST
GIVES DELIGHT
Hood River had a "first niht" Mon
day, town and valley residents turning
out to dedicate a new pipe organ just
installed at the Liberty Theatre.
Plans were made over a year auro to
replace the old pipe organ withja new
instrument, but wartime activities
rendered numerous materials so scarce
that the big organ was completed only
last week. The new organ is said by
experts who have visited here to be
larger and finer than any theatre in
strument outside of Portland.
A conce.t was given Monday and
Tuesday nights by Mrs. Arthur S. Kol
stad, who is an accomplished organist,
and who will be the theatre's perma
nent musician.
Mrs. Kolstad, who aroused frequent
applause, gave a program as follows:
"Lutspiel Overture," Keler-Hela
Op. 73; "A Dream," Hartlett; "Tell
Me Why," Hose; "Witches' Dance."
The organ was built by II. C. Fer
riss, of Portland.
