T illamook headlight , march WITH THE EDITORS Discuss Questions of Interest to People. —o— ••Profiteer” during these days is on ly the polite name for thief.— lele phone Register. ------ o------ Bald beaded men may as well quit buying hair growers and invest their money in war savings stamps. H’s no use, gentlemen; you can’t get blood out of a turnip—nor grow hair on a door knob. Save your money and put it into stamps. And the women—but there now, what’s the use.— Polk County Observer. The head of the Non-I’artisian League has admitted that tiie organ ization has collected from the farmers of the country more than $3,700,000 to be expended as the league’s president directs. What a storm of protest would go up if one of the old political parties should raise such a fund and place it at the command of 01 ■ man.—Telephone Register. The motion picture we believe • is th« most powerful material foe 1 war has ever bad to face. To see the scen ts of dev: illation, ruin, barbaric sav agery, in lying waste cities, hamlets, orchards ,and in raising to the ground unnumbered homes, is to reaiize, as only an eye witness can, that in the presence of war bell must be relegat ed as a back number.—Itemizer. In a copy of the Geographic Maga zine taken by Dr. Wood occurred a large picture of a Y. M. C. A. hut near New York, and in the picture was ob served the likeness of Harry Phillips of this city as he sat reading a book, and in the picture also was shown Orbie Craven, of, Tillamook a nephew of Mrs. Leslie Laughlin. The photo graph was of men enlisted in aviation work.—Telephone Register. ------ o------ Some of Germany’s psychology is as far away when applied to her own soldiers as when used abroad. To cre ate hatred for the Americans the of- iicers tell the men that every one of tin 111 made prisoners will be tortured to death, but the result is the oppo site to what is intended. Those who believe tile lie are so scared that they run when they see the Americans coming.—Oregon Register. ------ o------ A cattle and horse breeders associa tion m Colorado has decided to pre- sent every enlisted man from Colora- do with a cow and calf on his return, ami a wealthy rancher has agreed to Care lor the animals until the soldiers return from the battle fronts. 1 bat shows true American appreciation toward the boys who offer their lives in defense of their country's honor and liberty. It ought to loosen the purse strings of the tight-wads who haven’t made a sacrifice so far.— Banks Herald. We understand that there are some owners of vacant lots in and around McMinnville who are unwilling to farm them this spring or to let them to anyone else to farm. I his is not showing a proper spirit to help en large the food supply, and savors of a lack of patriotism. Let everybody work together to conserve the best in terests of the country and help reduce the cost of living. In some places they publish the names of such people who lack the proper spirit.— 1 elephone Register. A foreign born friend of the Inde pendent is discussing the cases of enemy sympathy which is well known ire occasionally encountered in Washington county put the case, we believe, rather neatly. To begin with he flatly declared that the man who would not give unqualified support to the country he found good enough to live in should receive no considera tion. But lie thought that even if they would not give that support out of gratitude, selfish considerations at least should influence them explained in this way: Most of them had come Io this country because they could do better than at home, and also came to escape the conditions which made it impossible for them to prosper as they had prospered in America. Sup pose, he said, there were enough of them to influence the result and their wish to sec Germany victorious was (ratified. German rule of the world Would mean bringing to America the conditions they emigrated to escape, while the wealth that they had accu mulated would be taken in the form of indemnities.—Hillsboro Independ ent. ------ 0------ Possibly it is not a coincidence, but here arc two facts we cannot get ’way from. Our greatest need for •uccessful prosecution of the war is •bips and more ships, and the chief reasons we lack ships and were oblig ed to start at the bottom to create the fl et needed for transports and to supply our troops over seas is the La Follette law which dealt a death blow *° the American shipping industiy, disec uraging building of ships and re- ,uh‘ .1 in our exports being carried Principally in German bottoms until *he war chased them from the seas. we say, it may be a coincidence, “ut German ship owners prospered torough the passage of the law, and J* author has just been condemned •I the legislature of his state for *bat it considers disloyalty. Can it be that the 1 w had aims hitherto un suspected. A nation, no matter how powerful, would not be feared if it lacked means of employing its power , at its enemy’s doors, and we all know now that ultimate war with the Unit ed States entered into the kaiser’s dreams of world power.—Hillsboro independent. ------ o------ Standing in front of the army war college at Washington, D. C. is a statute of Frederick the Great, who is alleged to be one of the shining lights in the history of the German empire. The figure was presented to the I nited Slates by Emperor Wil helm. The motive for the gilt and wh} it should be placed in front of the war college is somewhat vague. But that is all in the past. The Amer ican people are more deeply concern ed just now in a joint resolution in troduced by Senator 1 homas, of Col orado, providing that the statute be turn down and sold to the junk man. 1 he News suggests that the metal ill the thing be returned to the kaiser via the United States Artillery on the western front.—Umpqua Valley N e W s. If there i" - is any one man coming be- fore the people of the great state of Oregon at the oncoming _ primary ___ election for the ofticeo f governor that should get a good dressing down— trimmed up to a finish—i it is that man Ben Olcott, now secretary of stale, a mollycoddle politician of the true- blue stripe who plays the game of Olcott first, last and all the time. He is a cross between the West machine of political manipulators and the sil ent features of non-partisianship— which means “anything to get there.” He stands for every thing and any body—to get the votes, and during his incumbency in office as secretary of state has never lost an opportunity to keep in touch witli the "deer peo ple” for reasons best known to him self—which reasons are of a decided political nature. Olcott’s term as sec retary of state docs not expire until 1920, but he is dead anxious to swing onto the handle of governorship long before his present job terminates. Olcott is one of these astute politi cians—with a heavy accent on the iirst syllable—who trains as a repub lican and votes like a democrat.—Um- pqa Valley News. 28, Administrator’* Notice to Creditor*.

Tests of exhaust vapors have shown weaknesses in many engines. By such tests you can always tell how good an engine is. In the great Chalmers engine so very little in the way of unused or unburned gas comes out of the exhaust as to be almost negligible. The gas is used up —all of it —in the Chalmers. The moment it passes from the throat of the carburetor it strikes the now noted “Hot-Spot” where it is heated and “cracked-up” and then rushed on to the combustion cham bers via the “Ram’s-Horn” Manifold. When the spark touches it off there is translated a power such as a gas engine has never known; all the brute force imaginable, yet tamed down into a softness that is as smooth as deep water. Once you play with it with your right foot you will be amazed at the thrill it’ll give you.
