500 miles at 94.48 miles an hour a relentless grind
over a rough-finished, sun-baked concrete and brick
pavement at record-breaking speed that is the gruelling
test Oldfleld Cord Tires underwent successfully at Indian
apolis Speedway May 30th. They were on the winner's
car for the third successive year and on eight of the ten
finishing in the money, upholding the confidence success
ful race drivers have in the trustworthiness and ability of
these tires to meet the greatest demands of speed, endur
ance and safety. Their records in every other Important
race have been equally as good.
' Consider this achievement along with another test of Oldfield
quality made at Wichita, Kansas, this past winter and early
spring.
34,525 miles on rutted, icy Kansas roads, running day
and night on a Studebaker stock car without a single tire
change. This test was made by a group of Wichita auto
motive dealers in a tire, oil and gasoline economy run.
Mayor Kemp of Wichita was official observer and made
affidavit to the mileage and service given by Oldfield tires.
You may never subject your tires to the gruelling experience
of Indianapolis nor the steady grind of bad winter roads, but it
is goodto know you can get such safety and mileage economy
by buying Oldfield tires. Ask your nearest dealer.

TA Most Trustworthy Tirts Bailt"
The Oldfield Tire Company, Akron, Ohio
ha
City and valley folk crowded the
Open Air auditorium at Chautauqu
part friday and Saturday menu
witnesa the performance of "What
Next," a musical comedy staged under
direction or K. W. HiLlam for the ben
efit of the Knights of Pythias band
The band men, themselves, garbed in
their neat new uniforms, took a prom
inent . part in the entertainment, their
concerts among the most meritorious
numbers of the performances. Pretty
choruses and dancing were features of
tne snow, bpecialty dances that won
appreciation were given by Misses
Ldetha Hartwig, Leon a Van Allen
Dorothy Garrabrant and Irene Fewel,
Alfred Meal cave some Dleasant solos
Detween acts. A dancing act tbat won
liberal applause was one participated
in Dy Mr. Hi I lam and two tiny girls,
little Misses Henrietta Brazeau and
Verlene Nickelsen.
The American Federation of Labor
gave a flash of an electrical show that
they will present at the Open Air audi
loriurn next month.
What Next" nossessed decided dob
sibilities of an unusually high class
amateur performances. Indeed, it was
on a par with most amateur shows, al
though, because of the lack of mechan
ical aids and the fact , that but two
small dressing rooms are available at
the open air theatre, it dragged too
long. While, if staged at a modern
theatre, it would probably have been
more meritorious than the show put on
at the Kialto theatre last winter, the
slowness of the performance and the
general lack of enthusiasm resulting,
wnat jNext did not compare favor
ably with last winter's performance.
The long wait Friday night, while the
audience, many of them from 7.30 to
o clock and after, fought swarms of
mosquitoes, left specators tired before
the show was even started. All in all
the performers did their parts exceed
ingly well under circumstances. Sonirs

OREGON MOUNTAINS
APPEAL TO EDITOR
Chairman Kent Shoemaker, of the
committee in charge of the Hood River
American Legion Post's annual Mount
Hood Climb, has written letters to the
editors of all the sports and recrea
tional maeazines. inviting them to par
ticipate in the next ascent, to be made
July 16. That some of his invitations
have attracted attention is evidenced
in a replv from L. L. Little, editor of
"All Outdoors," a New York City
Dublication. Mr. Little writes:
"I have seen the state of Oregon
only from a distance, but Man, Man,
didn't I spend two years where I could
almost see Oregon all the time?
Haven't I hunted and fished and ram
bled through the Coeur d'Alene moun
tains until any mention of that country
has a terrible drag! Do you tnmK i
can sit here endlessly and make up a
magazine that shall reflect the sport of
a nation if you keep reminding me
what wonderful opportunities there are
for living out where you are? I aBk
you, as man to man, u it is iair to me
sportsmen of Florida and Maine and
all the. rest of our 'effete' east for you
to distract my attention in such a man
ner.
"You are very kind in your compli
mentary remarks about the name of
the magazine. Unfortunately, I was
wearing something shorter than long
pants at the time it was named. The
gentlemen who named it were, how
ever, from the middle west. As I said
before, nothing could please me more
than to take a vacation in the north
west which I came to love so well."
Rescue Society Wants Fruit
The Pacific Coast Rescue and Pro

These unfortunate girls and babies
come from almost every county in the
state. Any one wishing to donate
canned fruit and vegetables please
communicate with the general office.

Authorities have dropped kidnapping
charges against J. J. tirugger, arrested
in Portland Thursday with Amber
Whitbeck. 17-year old daughter of O
L. Whitbeck, -Upper Valley rancher,
who disappeared simultaneously with
Brugger two weeks ago. The man.
aged 45, was held, however, on a stat
utory charge and a preliminary trial
was set forrrtoday. sThe girl states
that she and Brugger posed as man
and wife at a Portland hotel.
bherirr. jonnson returned the pair
here by automobile last Friday, tfrug
ger was lodged in jail and the girl held
at a local hotel.
When first confronted in Portland by
Mrs. Sophie E. King of the women's
protective division, the girl denied her
identity and said her name was Lena
Smith, and that she was from Dayton,
Or. Later she confessed and told the
officers a story of cruel treatment at
home which had driven her away. She
said her father beat her and other
members' of the family and tbat she
had been planning to run away for
nearly two years.
According to her story, she came to
Portland part way on- foot and by
stages in automobiles of accommodat
ing persona. She said she met Brug
ger by accident the first morning she
was in Portland, and denied that he
had kidnapped her or influenced her to
leave home, bhe was placed in the
detention rooms to await a more thor
ough investigation, as several points
oi her story did not connect.
Brugger said he was working at the
time near Gresham. He also was
investigated more fully.
Roads Bold Up Well
Although Hood River valley high
ways are now being subjected to an
extremely heavy motor traffic, week
end and Sunday parties sending a con
stant stream over all valley trunks.
they are holding up very well. The
valley has been without rain for about
six weeks, and as a result the roads
are becoming very dusty in places.
Lounty Koadmaster Nichols keeps
crews constantly on the job maintain
ing all routes. The main West Side
road, beginning this week, will be
closed, and traffic of the district, be
cause of construction of an approxi
mate mile of market road concrete
paving south of the city, will be de
toured through the Belmont and Bar
rett districts.
Mr. and Mrs. George Brundidge. of
Missouri Valley, la., accompanied bv
their six children, three boys and three
girls, left here last week on the last
lap of their journey by automobile to
oervais, where Mr. Brundidge will
join his brother, Nathaniel, on a ranch.
lhe party, which had been spending
tne past two weeks in the local straw
berry harvest, left Iowa in April.
Their little car carried camping equip
ment, and every night was spent
camped along the roadsides. Bad roads
were met with in Wyoming and Idaho,
reported Dora, aged 15, the oldest
child, who was spokesman for the fam
ily group. The youngest child, a boy,
named Lorn a, is just a year old.
Annual Cottonwood Shower Over
The crest of the Columbia's flood
stage for the season is past. This is
indicated by the shedding of the downy
blossoms of Cottonwood .trees, which
line the banks of the river. Saturday
the cottony blooms were scattered over
the city by the breezes and left a lint
on the garments of men and women.
At times the falling down bad the ap
pearance or a snowstorm prevailing in
mid-summer with a brilliant sun shin
ing. Old time residents 'declare that the
fall of thercottonwood blooms is a cer
tain sign that the Columbia has passed
its flood stages. The river, it is said,
always recedes rapidly after the show
er of down from the blossoms.
Yihj Suffer From Rheumatism t
Do you know that nine out of every
ten cases of rheumatism are simply
rheumatism of the muscles or chronic
rheuamtism, neither of which require
any internal treatment? The pain may
be relieved by applying Chamberlain's
Liniment, which makes sleep and rest
possible, and that certainly means a
great deal to any one afflicted with
rheumatism.

Breezes Give Relief
But for the stiff breexes that have
blown from the west, tha Hood River
valley the past two days would have
experienced unusually hot weather.
Despite the strong wind the thermom
eters of the valley registered 94 de
grees. Had a calm prevailed, temper
atures of 100 and over would have resulted.
A calm, with a hot sunshine prevail
ing, would also have caused sunburn of
apples. When the wind blows, no mat

resulting in a hasty ending of the
strawberry harvest. With W cars al

to end this week. The cherries of the
