With a few more drives like that
started last week Germany is reduc­
ing her man power at a rapid rate.
Physical exhaustion is going to play
an important part in the outcome of
the war, for it is now a life and death
struggle.
The people of Tillamook County
have the true patriotic spirit. Watch
’em go over the top in the Liberty
Loan drive next Saturday. There’s
nothing small about Tillamook, only
its small number of citizens for so
large a county, but they get there just
the same.
It is a good thing that Oregon is
"dry”, for in these exciting times,
with plenty of money in circulation,
there would be considerable spent for
booze. This would lead to trouble and
bring about disturbance, is generally
admitted. It is fortunate that Oregon

If our citizens would use the same
amount of energy in rounding up the ’
I. VV. \V. as they did the pro-German 1
who made disrespectful
remarks ’
about U. S. soldiers, there would not
be any member of that pro-German
organization in this county. When
you read or hear about.I. W .W.
members being in the county you can
bet that they are out and out pro­
Germans.

It is reported that of all the coun-
tics, outside of Multnomah, more
complaints have reached Portland
about disloyal Tillamook citizens
than any other county in the state,
This docs not mean that we have
more disloyal citizens in this county,
but we take it that Tillamook people
have been more active in reporting
the disloyal remarks of those who arc
in sympathy with Germany.

The German general staff predicted
that the German army would be in
Paris tbe 1st of April. But, alas, hun­
dreds of thousands of German sol­
diers have entered the silent city of
the dead, as a result of a desperate
rush to reach Paris by that date. Most
of us remember that the Kaiser pre­
dicted that he would have his Christ*
mas dinner in Paris in 1914, so he and
Idle German general ■ aff must be aw-
fully fooled'.
There is conscription in England
and Scotland, but not in Ireland,
There is conscription in the United
States and Canada, but the political
leaders object to conscription in Ire­
land to help win the war. When Irish
political leaders come to the I nited
States to solicit money to help old
Ireland, they should be given the cold
shoulder. True Irishmen are fight­
ing in France, but not the politicians
who arc in Ireland opposing con­
scription. Hundreds of thousands of
boys from the United Stales are now
in France, fighting for the cause of
liberty, not so, however with Ireland,
for the political agitators of the Em­
erald Isle not only oppose the war
but oppose conscription and are doing
their best to prevent Irishmen from
taking part in it. It is to be hoped that
the people of the L nited States will
not overlook these facts, Ireland be-
longs to the slackers and is in the
lacker class.

It is estimated that 5000 young
calves will be killed in Tillamook
county this year, as soon as they are
born. Some persons look upon this as
a waste and think that the young
stock should be raised. At first sight
it docs look a waste to kill 5©°°
young calves when there is a short­
age of meat and which is liable to be­
come shorter. It has been suggested
that the calves be raised until they
arc ten days old and the meat canned.
That looks to be a good sensible ar­
gument, but when one takes into con­
sideration that nearly all the calves
suitable to be raised for beef are now
shipped out of the county, this will
leave the small Jersey calves, which
would not produce much meat for
canning purposes. No one will buy
them, the only value being in their
skins. As it is unprofitable for dairy-
lves, and there is no
men to raise calves,
law to compel them to do so, we sec
no prospects, or financial profit in it
at the present time.
Next Saturday Tillamook County is
going over the top in the Liberty
Loan Drive. We haven't the least
doubt of it. And over tile top tbe first
day with a big percent above its
quota, is our prediction, for the loyal
citizens of Tillamook county arc just
anxious to do their bit and do it the
first day of the drive. It is not neces-
sary for us to advise the citizens,, or
make a long plea in behalf of the l.ib-
erty Loan, for most of them arc intel­
ligently informed why the govern­
ment is calling for a third loan. To
put it as briefly as possible, it is to
help win the war, and when our boys
in France go over the top, as no
doubt they will do so in a day or two,
let’s do the same at home next Satur­
day and go over the top with the
Liberty Loan drive. And then this
is announced next Saturday night, we
Tillamookers will feel we have helped
win a victory over Kaiser Bill and the
pro-Germans in the United States.
Are you going to be one of the heroes
who will go over the top on Saturday
in Tillamook County? Sure you are.

What counts now in France is man
power, especially at this critical stage
of the war. True the United States
can raise millions of men, but what’s
the use of a large artuy*on paper at a
time when the army is wanted and
wanted badly, on tbe fighting line in
France. This goes to prove the falacy
of those, who opposed preparedness
and did everything they possibly
could to place the United States in a
predicament, especially as it was seen
that it was only a question of time
when the United States would be at
war with Germany. If it hadn’t been
for these blind, leaders of the blind
the United States would be better pre­
pared when it lined up with the allies.
A large number of our citizens see
what an important part the I nited
States would now play 011 the West­
ern front if it had 2,000,000 men in
France today. As we view the situa­
tion it would bring the war to a
speedy 1 nil. The delay in sending a
larger army to France will, no doubt,
delay tbe time when Germany will
sue for peace, for that is what she will
have to do. W e have no doubt about
that, but college professors and oth­
ers who opposed preparedness are re­
sponsible for the small American
army now in France when there
should have been at least 2,000.000
men armed with all the best and most
deadly implements of. warfare, to
wipe out the Kaiser and his crew of
junkers, with all their barbarity, and
inhuman methods of warfare.
it is a disgrace that the Life Saving
station at Bar \ iew is deprived of a
motor boat. It certainly appears to
the most of us that the government is
too slow and some of the officials at
\\ ashington need jacking up. \\ hat s
th« use anyway, maintaining a life
saving station and then fail to pro­
vide it with a proper vessel? 1 hat is
not all. It is an injustice to the life
saving crew and places their lives in
jeopardy when they are called upon
to face a furious storm.

I here are two things that should be
done to help conserve food food.
One is to suspend the fish law and al­
low people to fish whenever they
have a mind to, and the other is to
prohibit the use of barley and other
grains used in the manufacture of in­
toxicating liquors. A run of smelt in
the Sandy river last week provided an

conditions confronting the country, it
is only natural that all citizens of
German extraction should be closely
watched. Kaiserism is found in every
part of the United States, and paid
emissaries are
doing their best,
through the I. \\. \\. s and socialists
parties, to cause friction and discon­
tent amongst the workmen of this
country, had England, France, Italy
or Japan, done what the Kaiser did,
and the» United States was at war
with cither of those countries, the
same suspicion -would rest upon citi-
zeiis who were of English, French,
Italian or Japan descent. This is a
critical time for citizens of German
descent in the United States, but
can thank Kaiserism and the
Germans in the United Slates
placing them under suspicion. It is
just as well to look at the facts
squarely in the face, but no doubt
there are those who will be falsely ac-
cused as being pro-Gcrman, for per-
tonalities will often enter into it with
malicious lies being circulated against
citizens w ho are far from' being pro-
Gerntans. There were large numbers
of citizens before the L nited States
entered the war who were certainly
out-spoken and in hearty accord with
Germany, and who hoped and predict­
ed that she would win the war.
Knowing that this sentiment prevail­
ed in citizens of German descent be­
fore the United States entered the
war, they arc now being judged by
what they said then. There were also
a large number of citizens who were
opposed to the United States getting
mto the war as well as citizens of
German descent, who took untenable
positions, for they now see and arc
ready to admit that Germany, w hen it
forced the war upon Earopc, did so
or a conquest of the world, including
the United States.

The Lines Were Beauty Lingers.
Lord Byron never saw a Grant Six,
out he had the right idea about beau­
ty—it is first and foremost a matter
of lines.
The Grant Six is a beautiful car be­
cause of its graceful, flowing lines,,
which carry the eye naturally from
iront to back. The high raidator and
iiood, the careful curve of the fenders
the long running board, the sloping
windshield, all contribute to the effect
of accentuating the length of the car.
The Grant Six body lines are beau­
tiful because they arc simple. A motor
car is primarily a machine. Its pur­
pose is utilitarian not decorative.
It is a fundamental principle ob­
served by all good designers, that
beauty of a useful thing must be kept
the incidental and must never be ob­
trusive.
The designers of the Grant Six have
kept this fact in mind. They have not
forgottei^for an instant that their ob­
ject was to build a motor car that
would satisfy tbe critical eye of the
people who have taste.xSo they did
did not try to suggest a torpedo boat
or a yacht or anything else except a
motor car.
There are, of course, people who
will say that the Grant Six is "too
quiet.” But, its restful deep olive
green, relieved by white striping on
louvres and wheels, and set off by the
black fenders and splashers, will ap­
peal to most
people, including all
those whose good taste tells them
that violent reds and passionate pur­
ples arc chosen only by those of
primative color sense.
The natural accompaniment of beau­
ty is careful workmanship. In the
Grant Six you will find that finished
touch which always shows the handi­
work of men who are skilled, con­
scientious and proud of the thing that
they have made.
l’liis finished appearance is not al­
ways found in motor cars that arc
sold at a popular price and which
must be produced on a large scale.
But you do find it on the Grant Six.
ind it is significant. It means that the
things you can't sec. the mechanical
details of the car that you must take
on faith, arc equally well done. Let
Kuppcnbender show the Grant Car to
you. Do it n»w.

Power to take a hill, and power to pass the other fellow
are still claimed by many car makers; but here’s a car that
puts such expressions into the dark ages of automobiling.
It is the current Chalmers, equipped with the famous
“Hot-Spot” and “Ram’s-Horn” Manifold, which wrings from
gas more power than was ever taken out of gas before.
But not merely brutal power (for that it has), but a
newer kind, a softness of power that is as thrilling to bear
witness to as the technique of a great musician.
Accomplished how? By those two great devices: a “Hot-
Spot”, which fairly cooks the gas, then ‘‘cracks it up fine as a
powder”, and the “Ram’s-Horn” Manifold which “sets it
down” in the combustion chambers with celerity and with­
out disturbance.
So that when the spark touches it off, it gives nothing
but power; soft, harnessed, controlled power that you will
never forget once you have had its feel.
