PORTLAND GOLFERS
PRAISE LOCAL CHOICE
Victor Johnson, of the Portland Mu
nicipal Golf organization, and John C.
Ainsworth, president of the United
States National Bank, here over Sun
day, accompanied E. O. Blanchar over
the H. Pregge ranch, chosen by local
golf enthusiasts for a course. Both
men declared the choice of a site ideal
for a course. The visitors, Loth of
whom are golf experts, went over the
ground thoroughly. They stated that
a course can be maintained there with
out difficulty.
Mr. Johnson and Mr. Ainsworth
congratulated local golf enthusiasts
and business interests on the success
met with in their plans. Both declare
that the course will be decided asset
to the valley.
Ford Demand Exceeds Supply
In spite of the present enormous pro
duction of cars, trucks and tractors
by the Ford Motor Company the sale
has increased so out of proportion that
the factory has ceased to make stock
shipments to dealers. The Dickson
Motor Co. has received the following
telegram :
"Future car, truck and tractor ship
ments are to b made against bonafide
orders only. Wire immediately number
of orders by types you now have on file
and in order to insure delivery you
must continue to show this information
promptly on your ten-day report."
Judging from this information it
would not be surprising to see history
repeat itself. Many have cause to re
member the scarcity of Ford cars some
years ago when orders were placed and
delivery was not made until several
months after. The popularity of the
Ford car has never waned of which the
above information is good evidence.

shore
And softly whisper, "Weep no more."

OLINGER RECALLS
VISIT OF GRANT
No Oregon citizen is more interested
in the 100th anniversary celebration of
General Grant than E. S. dinger,
dean of northwestern constables, hav
ing served in that capacity here for 34
years. Mr. Olinger, a native of the
Waldo Hill country, was a resident of
Salem in 1879 when General Grant, re
turning from his Oriental trip, visited
the state capital. Mr. Olinger, whose
reputation as a driver went into eclipse
only when the automobile succeeded
the carriage as a means of passenger
transportation, was assigned the duty
of handling the reins of the big iron
gray team which drew the Victoria of
General Grant and his companions
from the Salem station up to the old
Chemeketa House, now the Hotel
Marion.
"Three men were seated with Gen
eral Grant in the open carriage," says
Mr. Olinger. "We were moving slow
ly along just behind a band. My team,
stimulated by the music, was acting a
little fractious. Suddenly an old sol
dier, who was engaged on a painting
job along the itinerary of our proces
sions, spied the carriage aod its dis
tinguished occupant Down went his
brush and he ran across the street,
calling to the general. The dash of
the veteran frightened my team, and
for a few seconds I thought I was go
ing to have a runaway. The horses
reared and plunged, and it took all of
my strength and wits to get them in
trim again. General Grant sat through
the excitement as calmly as though
ti e incident were but a part of the
program. "
When the Salem reception was over,
Mr. Olinger drove the general and his
party back to the station.
Insificirit Oil on Paper
, J. P. Naumes, of Dan Wuille & Co.,
who for the past season has experi
mented without success with oil paper
for the prevention of scald on New
town apples in cold storage, sent sam
ples of the paper to D. F. Fisher, fed
eral expert at Wenatchee, Wash. He
has just received report from Mr.
Fisher who states that the paper con
tained too small a percentage of the
oil. The paper is treated with oil,
which to be effective must absorb gas
exuding from the fruit. The paper
used in the local tests, Mr. Fiuher
stated, had sufficient oil to prevent the
escape of the gas but not enough to
absorb it. As a result it had a worse
effect on the apples than common
paper.
The government expert declares that
paper properly treated, as has been
demostrated in tests, will prevent the
scald, which in past years has caused
growers a serious loss.
Roy Shaded by EWetr ic Heater
Carroll, 10-year old son of Mr. and
Mrs. G. P. Morden, was badly shocked
Saturday night by an electric heater.
The boy was bathing. Seeking to di
vert the heat of the instrument, be
seized it with both hands as he stood
in the bath tub. His wet hands stuck
to the heater, which was drawn into
the bath tub. His mother, responding
to his screams, grasped the boy by the
arms. She, too, was unable to release
herself.
Mr. Morden cut off the current by
jerking the heater fixture from its
socket. The boy is apparently none
the worse for the terrifying exper
ience. Koeatrett linkway Pledged $100
At a luncheon conference with Sid
ney B. Vincent and John Gratke, rep
resenting the Portland Chamber of
Commerce, at the Hotel Oregon Mon
day Hood River citizens pledged $100

tional Roosevelt Highway, to traverse
the continent from Portland, Me., to
Portland, Ore.

CO. C NOTES
A detachment of Company C began
Sunday to clear up a rifle range on a
4()-acre tract belong to the Pacific
Power & Light Co. on the east side of
Hood River about two miles south of
town. Papers for the lease of the plot
have been dispatched to Portland for
final formalities by Manager Berkeley
H. Snow.
"The land lies in an ideal location
for a range says Cant. Edward W. Van
Horn. "It is far down in the Hood
River gorge and is sufficiently isolated
to permit us to shoot without fear of
danger to the public We will develop
a fine GOO-ysrd range. It will be made
accessible by the new Loop Highway."
The company has just received 8
boxes of equipment. Except for a few
minor articles, Capt Van Horn says
his unit is now entirely supplied.
Th officers of the company express
gratification at the way local young
men have turned out for the new mili
tary unit. Although Company C is the
youngest of 30 national guard com
panies in the state, it stood fifth in
numbers for the month of March, and
its attendance at drill was sixth.
