Call 1t motor Boat j..

New York, Dec. 8, 1905.
Editor Advertiser: We note that
some writers on yachting topics, in
refer to them as power boats We
think you will agree with US that in
this growing sport all writer's should
make an effort to have its vocabulary
as correct as possible. We do not
think these same writer's would speak
of a motor car as a power car" nor
would they call a motor bicycle a
power bicycle" yet these terms are
no more incorrect, illogical and alb
surd than is the term power boat"
By reference to any standard die
tionary, or to any engineering text
book, it will be readily seen that the
only correct term is motor boat
The term motor boat has not on
ly the sanction of authority, but also
of usage, as it is the term employed
by practically all the makers and users
of this class of boats.
We are aware that an attempt to
establish the incorrect term power
boat" is being made, and you may have
received a circular containing a num-
Der of false and misleading statements
upon the subject, backed by no other
authority than the ignorance of their
writer. We do not ask you to take
our word alone in this matter. but
back up our statements with indis-
putable evidence.
You will oblige us by inserting this.
Very truly yours,
THE MOTOR BOAT.

third was to in favor of the soldiers.
In the third innings the Twilights made
their lone tally.
In the fourth innings the Infantry

ROAD
FUND
Gathering 10 the ShekeIS for
the Benefit Of the
Road Builders

Judge Scott is now sending out cir
cular letters to contributors to the sa-
lem prize fund, asking them to send in
their subscriptions at once, as the
awards will be made at the October
term of the county court.
In accordance with the plan proposed
by Judge Scott last spring. $4,000 was
subscribed by the business men of Sa-
lem and $500 by the county to be used
as prize money. This sum was divided
into seven prizes to be given to the
seven roads doing the greatest amount
Of volunteer work. The prizes are to
be used in the continuation Of the
work, and expended under the direction
and supervision of the county court
and road overseer. The one condition
imposed upon the receiving Of the prize
was that no road should receive more
than 40 per cent Of the amount actual
ly volunteered and worked out. That
is, to receive the first prize of $500,
there must have been done on that
road $3.50 worth Of volunteer work.
In case. no road has done this much
work, then the road having done the
most work will receive n prize which
shall be to the amount Of work done as
800 is to $3.50.
So far eight roads have reported as
trying for tho prize, and there may be
others, which have not yet reported.
The eight roads known to be in the race
are as fellows: Halls Ferry road,
Rosedale road, Jefferson road, Pringle
road, Brooks, road from red barn to
asylum farm, road from red barn due
east, and the road to Silverton. All
Of these roads are leading directly into
the city Of Salem.
The committee, of which Judge Scott
was chairman, which had in hand the
raising Of this money, are using the
letters to collect the sums for the rea'
son that the committee is at present
luu bueg W Ndll uH'h NaNh VI hho NVh'
tributors personally to receive the con
tribution. Only few letters were sent
out Saturday, but in response to these
the committee yesterday received
checks amounting to s340, which shows
the contributors are responding.
Full reports Of the amount Of work
done on each Of these roads have not
yet been handed in, but they will be
given in The journal as soon as they
are made. So far as we have been able
to ascertain there has been volunteered
on the Halls Ferry road $729.25 in
work, $296,5O in cash, and $4S.5O yet
unpaid. On the Rosedale road 5000 or
500 worth Of work has been done,
while on the Jefferson road the people
have done work amounting TO about
$1,000. On the Slverton road $40 has
been paid in cash, $246 in work and
SlS2 bas been subscribed, which will be
worked out this fall, but too late TO
count in this contest. On the Pringle
road $1,000 worth Of work has been
done. about 5000 on the Brooks road
and about $400 on the two roads from
the red barn, exclusive Of the work
done by the state.

The New Fashion in skirts.

s'The closest attention must be paid
to the fitting of the present-day skirt,
whether it be short or long" writes
Helen Berkeley-Loyd in the Delinea-
tor, s'for a false line about the hips
is a defect that cannot be concealed
The new short skirt is a bit shorter
than We have recently seen it; hence
the shoes and hosiery worn with it
must be of high grade, corresponding
with each other and with the gown to
which they belong. Kilting continues
popular; the plaits growing narrower
and more numerous. and fitted more
carefully to the hips. The French
models show much shirring, and in
response the American dressmakers
are introducing cores gathered or
gauged into the belt, between groups
of plaits. The newest modification of
the fashionable circular skirt has a
bias effect in the front and at the
sides and full pfaits in the back 1t
is also marked by the revived gradu-
ated hounce- In tailored gowns the
line of union is left plain, or else it is
emphasized by a shaped fold finished

All in a little pile;
Then when I'm in a rush to go,
And hurry right to where

How TO Clean IVORY.

Ivory can be cleansed and the color
in some measure restored by well
washing it with plenty of soap and
water, and then exposing it to the sun
just as you lift it straight from the
suds, being careful to keep the ivory
wetted with soapsuds as long as it is
in the sun; as soon as it is whitened
wash and rinse it well in clean, cold
water acidulated with lemon juice
and then dry very carefully.
lemon dipped in fine salt and well
rubbed on is also effectual for remov-
ing ink and other stains from ivory
In extreme cases a solution of one
ounce oxalic acid (poison) in one-half
pint of water, well rubbed on with a
stiff brush. the ivory being then well
rinsed, dried with a soft cloth and
left near. but not actually in front of
the fire. is also very effectual if care
fully handled.
