Opposed to Bonding County for
Hard Surfaced Roads Now
Wants Motor Road.
(From The Oregonian)
MOTOR ROAD WOULD HELP
Tillamook County Interests Would
Tap Extensive Spruce Region.
Tillamook County interests arc tak
ing up with the State Highway Com
mission a proposal that a servicable
automobile road be constructed
through the Grand Ronde Indian
Reservation to tap the extensive
spruce regions of the county.
John T. Dougall, of Portland, rep
resenting timber interests in the Till
amook country, has taken up the mat
ter of a truck highway with State-
Engineer Nunn, and will also seek ap
proval of the State Highway Com
mission. Mr. Nunn is quoted as favor
ing the construction of the road.
The great importance of the region
from the airplane spruce production
standpoint is said to render almost
imperative more infalliablc and ex
tensive transportation facilities than
the railroad provides. Tjllamook
County professes to be furnishing ful
ly 3® Per cent of the airplane spruce
now being sent from Oregon.
The timber men's Dougal-Dougal-
ly-Do-Man is doing another poke
nose stunt, and at the same time
places himself in a position to be rid
iculed and laughed at. It will be re
membered that when the citizens of
Tillamook County took up and dis
cussed the question of bonding the
county for a liardsurfaced motor
highway through the county, he, in
behalf of a few timber men, opposed
the bonding, and notwithstanding the
circular letter sent out and signed by
a few misguided persons, the people
of the county went two to one in
favor of bonding..
Now the Dougal-Dougally-Do-Man
wants a motor road. What for? Sim
ply to help the timber men get spruce
out of the county. We suppose it is
also to show his self importance that
the Dougal-Dougally-Do-Man is now
poking his nose again into our county
affairs, but we want to say this that
Tillamook County is determined to
have a hard surfaced road through
the county and that the county will
be bended to help pay for it.
A Red Cross Lesson.
"It is wrong. 'Tis too bad; but 'twill
have to be ripped;
Toward the front all the fells must
be turned.”
And 1 looked in dismay at the work I
had done,
As the half-finished shirt was re
turned.
With the garment in hand I returned
to my seat,
And with almost a tear in my eye,
1 looked at those very long scams in
despair.
And felt that I really could cry.
But I moodily started one under-arm
seam,
With a clip at each interlocked
thread;
When, like music, I heard a kind
voice at my side—
"Never mind I will help you it said:
Then together we worked, till the
task was all done.
And the scams once again could be
sewed.
And the burden that I had deemed
heavy was gone,
For a kind hand had helped lift
the load.
Over seas
there
are brothers
whose task is so hard.
That dispair has seemed to be nigh.
But now born in the air comes a mes
sage of hope—
"Keep up heart, we will help” is the
cry.
Now together we’ll fight, and togeth
er we’ll win,
And the task, although hard, will be
done,
This great world for its people once
more will be safe.
Ami our Captain’s approval be won.
Use Oil of Asphalt Base.
"Correct winter lubrication can be
obtained only by using an oil of zero
cold test—one that will flow freely at
zero temperature,” says H. C. Boone,
manager of the Standard Oil Com
pany.
"In this respect oils made from
Western asphalt-base crude have a
big advantage, as they contain no
paraffin to thicken under cold, and
consequently have a natural zero cold
test.
"Poor cold test oils do not lubricate
correctly until the motor has been
running 15 or 30 minutes, as the oil is
not flud enough to splash the feed
properly. Thio means excessive wear
of bearings, cylinders and pistons.
"Owners of Ford cars who have
been having trouble during the cold
weather in cranking their cars, due to
oil congealing between the clutch
pistes, will find th at an asphalt-base
oil of light body will solve their cold
Weather 'ubrication difficulties.”
How to Prevent Croup.
In a child that is subject to attacks
of croup, the first indication of the
disease is hoarsness. Give Chamber-
lain'« Cough Remedy as soon as the
child becomes hoarse and the attack
may be warded off and all danger and
anxiety avoided. For sale by Lamar's

OUR PHYSICAL HEALTH.
SAVING THE TIRES.
Thia Critic Claims W. Are Only Half
Living and Working.
Some Advice on How to Treat Them
to Maks Them Last.
That the average uiuu and woman in
the United States today is only half
living and is not doing half of the work
nor getting half of the joy from work
and life that the human being is capa
ble of getting is the opinion of Dr. Ir
ving Fisher of Yale university, the
great student and authority on eco
nomic health conditions, lu a recent
study that be has made of rural health
and national well being be tinds that
only something like 1 per cent of pen
pie are really well and free from tin
palrinent.
Interpreting this low state of phys
ical health in terms of what it means
to the individual, the writer says, "It
means that we are losing a large part
of our rightful life not only by deatb
itself, which cuts off many years we
might have lived, but also from dis
ease and disabilities which are not fa
tal, but which cripple the power to
work and mar the Joy of living."
As to what this state of physical in
efficiency means to the producing pow
er of this country, the writer again
says: "M e may assume that on the av
erage for every deatb per annum there
are two persons sick during the year.
This makes about 3.000,000 people con
stantly lying on sick beds In the United
States, of which on the most conserva
tive estimate at least half need not
have been there. If we translate these
preventable losses into commercial
terms we find that even by the most
conservative reckoning this country Is
losing over $1.500,000,000 worth of
wealth producing power every year.
"Personally,” says Professor Fisher,
“1 believe it can be shown that the
chief cause of this degeneration is the
neglect of individual hygiene, partly
from Ignorance, partly from indiffer
ence, partly from sheer helplessness.
The degeneration of our bodies follows
a degeneration of our habits. The cure
for the degenerative disease is more
personal hygiene—more scientific habits
of daily living."
"Practical tests prove that a car Is
not stopi>ed as quickly when the wheels
are locked as when the brakes are ap
plied gently, but firmly." said a tire ex
pert in a talk about tires.
“By locking the wheel and skidding
the tire the rubtwr is scraped and torn
off and the canvas laid bnre. Goodby
tire. A tube must l>e placed inside a
casing, and every crease must be elim
inated. A carelessly fitted tube will
t>e subjected to abnormal tension in
several places and will be sure to burst
tn inflating.
“Mu. y drivers still run on deflated
tires. There is nothing will ruin a shoe
quicker than this. When you get a
puncture, stop immediately aud make
repairs or change shoes. When rubl>er
comes in contact with oily or fatty sub
stances it blisters and disintegrates.
See that your tires do not come in
contact with any kind of grease.
“We have known brand new tires to
wear out in only 150 miles of driving,
simply because the front wheels were
not properly aligned. If your wheels
are not parallel and true, have them
tested at once and the trouble cor
rected.
“Vulcanizing by an Incompetent per
son is dangerous and costly, resulting
usually in rubber losing its elasticity.”

TOO MUCH FOR DEWEY.
He Frankly Admitted There Was One
Thing He Couldn’t Oo.
A curious coincidence surrounds the
entering of George Dewey as a cadet at
the naval academy, from which he
graduated with great honor in 1858.
His appointment was that of alternate
to another Montpelier (Vt.) boy, son of
a Vermont physician, also named
George. They bad played together and
fought many sham battles side by
side hi the little old red schoolhouse.
George I. received the naval appoint
ment, but for family reasons decid
ed to enter the ministry, and the va
cancy was taken by the alternate,
George Dewey, who was ready for any
fight on land or sea. as be many times
proved In the little Montpelier school
house.
No one rememliers better than the
writer the great demonstration in Bos
ton Oct. 14. 1899, when Admiral Dewey
was the hero of the hour. Congratula
tions were telegraphed from the old
playmate, George, of the Montpelier
days: "Bully for you, George. Have
you ceased swearing as you did In the
old boyhood days? I could not have
fought that battle of Manila, but I am
sending you a sermon. I preached It
last Sunday in my Syracuse church."
The reply came:
George, I may have fought like a bulldog,
and I may still swear at times, but I could
not have preached that sermon.

The Bicycle.
From the best accounts it appears
that the first bicycle—meaning by the
term a two wheeled machine for hu
man locomotion—was made in France
about the year 1815. This pioneer ma
chine was a very awkward affair, con
sisting of a couple of heavy wooden
wheels of equal diameter, one behind
the other and Joined together by a lon
gitudinal wooden bar on which the rid
er's seat was fixed, the mode of pro
pulsion being the pushing of the feet
against the ground. Not for fifty years
was any real progress made. In 1809
the machine with the big driving wheel
with the little hind wheel was invent
ed by Mlchaux of Paris, and a few
years later came the "safety," which,
with many improvements, is the ma
chine we have today.
Dragoons.
Dragoons used to be armed with a
short musket which spouted out fire so
fiercely when the trigger was pulled
that it was called a “dragon," after
the fabulous beast whose breath is fire.
So well established did this name be
come for this firearm that a dragon
was engraved on the barrel, and the
men who used this particular weapon
were called "dragoons.”

Courage and Cruelty.
It is one of the mean and morbid lies
that physical courage Is connected with
cruelty. Tolstoyan and Klpllnglte are
nowhere more at one than in maintain
ing this. They have, I believe, some
small sectarian quarrel with each
other, the Btnall one saying that cour
age must be abandoned because it is
connected with cruelty and the other
maintaining that cruelty is charming
because it is a part of courage. But it
is all, thank God, a lie. An energy and
boldness of body may make a man
stupid or reckless or dull or drunk or
hungry, but it does not make him
spiteful.—Gilbert K. Chesterton.
