HEIGHTS GARAGE GATES i'of- TI RES 1 T v APPLE HARVEST CHIL DREN MAKE PROBLEM The Hood, Kivt-r valley has a problem each fall in the nundiers of school chil- : drtn who acron.pany families here at (ai'i le haivet season. At the second j n.trt;re of the Kiverside Forum, Sun d.i i .ilt.t. ciltzers declared that annu ally the children biir.g communicable d f .es to the valley, with the result thi.t heme children are affected and ir.is many school dajs. In most in stances the visiting children do not atteni schi I. It was the upinion of tt.e Krum that the youngsters should he tumbled to attend si'bool, where they niijiht he under the ejes of teach ers who miht thus prevent the spread if the diseases. "Kducatien for American Citizen ship" was the topic discussed by mem hers of the Forum Sunday night. Is-r-as raised here Sunday, November lt, hy l'r. 1.. Ii. Penrose, president of Whitman College, were discussed chietiy. While It. Penrose voiced an lipids tion to vocational training in schools, arguing that it might raise a din gerous class consciousness, numer ous speakers last Sunday night pointed out tt at so called vocational training :n American schools was altogether different from that of the folk schools of (iermany which Dr. Penrose pointed out. J. H. K U-rg. who was educated in the German folk schools, explained their methods. Teachers present de clared that vocational training as adopted in American schools often caused students to remain at classes and thus ohtain a grounding in general education that they otherwise would have missed. According to parents and members of the fotum, the moving picture the atre is resulting in a young man and womanhood indifferent to the deeper fundamentals of life. Some of those present Sunday night wento far as to characterize the picture show palaces as a modern curse. Some of the teach ers present stated that girls and hoys of today are absorbed with the frothy activities of movy heroes and heroines, w hile a century ago the young were gathering recreation from the works of Scott or reading such books as "Scottish Chiefs, or "Thaddeus of Warsaw." SATURDAY'S GAME WAS A NEAR RIOT mm.

I'eeVed at alleged raw rulings by officials, the Hood River team, with the score at 32 to 0 in favor of the visitors, declined to play out the lull second half. During progress of the game some of The Dalles visitors, it is claimed, slippel to the high school auditorium Mid stole a mid Columbia basket ball championship pennant won in a former year. Words over the missing pennant led to numerous hand to hand encount ers both by boys and girls . Faculty members were put to it to prevent a riot. No local athletic event has ever raised so much discussion. While local f nectators concede that The Dalles had much the better team, the opinion was practically unanimous that officials lobbed the Hood River team in two de usions. W hile parents of some of the llid River players joined in the argu ment and compelled their sons to quit the field, other local folk characterized I he action of (putting the game as yel low, asserting that the contest should have been played to the end in spite of iirigularities in decisions.

West, whose husband is manager of the Mt. Hood R. R. Co., were held yesterday at the old home in Ogden, Utah. Mrs. West, one of the valley's most prominent matrons, was at Logan, Utah, where she had been called to at tenrj funeral services of an aunt, when stricken with an attack of ptomaine ioisoning. Her husband was in Port land, a novice at the big Shrine cere monial last Thursday when he received news of his wife's serious illness. He U-ft immediately, accompanied by his younger childiei. He reached his wife's bedside in time to see her alive. Mr. and Mrs. West recently moved from Hood River back to their orchard place on Dee Flat. Five sons and a daughter survive Mrs. West. Two of the pons, Alvah and Clement West, served in the army during the war. 1 UKaxuTell 1 Snows Stop Forestry Crews Deep snows in the forests, according to State Forest Supervisor Sherrard, have put an end to work on the Lo;,t Lake Highway until next spring. Mr. Sherrard, who accompanied by Shirley Buck, of the Portland forestry oflicu, was here visiting his Neal Creek ranch nlace, said the work would be resumed as soon as weather conditions permit next spring. The county, working on improve ments of a road to connect with the, forestry section of the Lost Lake road, may be able to accomplish a portion of the task this winter. The county court, however, according to advices received from Senator Chamberlain, will nrohably not be able to secure any further allotments of T. N. T. Hood River Wants Gibbet Public opinion in Hood River, fol lowing the murder of State Highway Commissioner Burgess and George E. Peringer, demands the return of the nibbet or some substitute equally ef fective to Oregon's penal code. While no organized action has been taken by local folk, inidvidual expression is unanimously in favor of the reinstitu tion of the death penalty. The matter nrobably will be taken up at the next meeting of the American Legion Post Monday night. Mr. Burgess, reared at The Dalles, was the boyhood playmate of Truman Butler, J. G. Vogt and other promi nent men who came here from the neighboring city. . THE GEM Wednesday and Thursav, November 2( an! 27.

Good looks, plenty of comfort and convenience and ample room for five adults make the Maxwell Touring model the ideal car for family use. The popularity of this pleasure car alone, during the past five seasons, would have enabled the Maxwell Motor Company to attain a volume production such as few motor car companies achieve with an entire line. Five years of intensive manufacture have developed the Maxwell chassis remarkably, and the efforts of the past year to enhance the car's appearance have borne good fruit. M i&Vl was? The Touring Car appears this season with a new body. It is just a little more roomy than its predecessors more space in the tonncau and more clearance and leg room in the driving compartment. This naturally followed as a result of lengthening the chassis several inches. A FULL LINE OF UNITED STATES TIRES IN STOCK L. E. FOUST 1121 Kront Street Box S Sacramento. Calif.
