Clean surface of leaves and then spread thin coating of lubricant over ! surface with small brush or paddle. Repeat operation whenever spring squeak develops. Grease Cups Daily, or every 100 miles, turn down all grease cups two complete turns, refilling cups with fresh grease when empty.

H-H-H-M-H FINS, Fl RS AND FEATHERS I 4- Joe G. Vogt Sunday won the semi monthly tournament of the Hood River Gun Club, breaking 22 out of 25 pigeons. Wayne L.

Mr. Foreman made the record score of 25 straight pigeons. When D. E. and W. F. Rand.

The men, all experienced mountaineers, pene trated the brakes of the Columbia by way of Wyeth. After a day's good fishing they started back down the wild region to the Columbia river. In the twilight they headed down the wrong moraine and thus missed the trail. The men spent the night almost in a stone's throw of Wyeth. Their de scent at the point was impossible. ihey decided not to attempt to retrace their steps further into the brakes of the head of the Wyeth trail until day light. As they emerged into the cleared space of the Columbia River Highway at Wyeth they met a search ing party going in for them. County Clerk Shoemaker is wonder ing if the practice of transferring automobile licenses, utilized in circum venting the law, has had its effects on dog owners. Mr. Shoemaker has just receiveu a leuer uom an Underwood merchant who states that a stray canine, wearing Oregon dog license tag No. fi, has appeared at his place. Looking over his records, Mr. Shoe maker ascertained the name of the owner who applied for state dog license No. 6. He informed the owner that his dog was at Underwood. The lat ter, however, refuted the storv, sup plying the proof by showing his dog. The license tag, however, was missing L. M. Baldwin, who was guide for a party climbing Mount Hood Sunday, had to call in a physician Monday to open his eyes. Mr. Baldwin, who since childhood has made ascents of Mount Hood almost annually, has never worn glass to protect his eyes against the glare of the snow and ice. Sunday night, the party made a late start from their camp into Hood River. "My automobile lights were working poorly," said Mr. Baldwin, "and I had to peer ahead into the darkness con stantly. The great contrast of the brilliantly lighted snowlields and the darkness of the homeward drive over strained my eyes." While his eyes remain inflamed. Mr. Badwin was back at his desk again Tuesday. "I have never seen the snow on Mount Hood deeper -for this season than at present," says Mr. Baldwin in telling of the Sunday climb. "This is a condition that makes climbing all the easier. After the snow has melted, leaving fields of bare ice, the moun tainside becomes slippery and climb ing is a greater task and more danger ous. Sunday, as our party included many girls, we took our time. Al though we were late in reaching the summit, it was much better than had we rushed and brought the party to the top overfatigued. The girls were served hot drinks on the crest by the forest service lookout. The snow is still so deep on the summit that only the cupola of the lookout house peeps through the drift. But a way has been cleared in to the door of the 2 mile high structure." Mr. Baldwin savs that the climh from the north side of the peak is made more difficult this year than most seasons because no life line ha9 been placed from the summit down the 1500-foot, almost perpendicular side of the conical peak. The ascent of Sun day was made all the more interesting because of the presence of some 100 Mazamas and the stunts of a United States Forestry aeroplane around the top of the mountain. The big plane, carrying a photographer, dipped and cavorted above the weary climbers, the pilot daring the whiplash currents of air around the top of the snow peak. The Sunday party included the fol lowing: Miss Carrie Evans, of AI hany ; Misses Winifred Palmateer and Mildred Canfield, of Portland; Oral Palmateer, of Silverton; Misses Helen Forbes and Frances Moe, Mr. and Mrs. F. L. Moe, Roger and Howard Black mail, Mark Moe, L. M. Baldwin, Isaac McGrew and Jack Bagley, of Hood River. Mr. Baldwin and Mr. McGrew journeyed to the camp in Mr. Bald win s car. Mr. Bagley carried the others from the city to a camp near Cloud Cap Inn Saturday afternoon in his Oldsmobile commercial car. The latter did not make the climb, although he was once the most noted big game nunier ot cne community. He de clared that he is getting too old for wasting energy on mountain hikes. He acted as camp cook, and the recre ationists return singing his praises. All other members of the party made the journey to the top of the mountain except Mrs. Moe and Miss Forbes. Mrs. Moe had sprained an ankle and was unable to leave camp. Miss roroes Became ill as the party proached the ton of Coopers Spur.
