Girls, listen to your mothers; they
are Your wisest teachers, your best
copnselors. Fen though you have re-
ceived a college education, and the
dear one who in all probability has
denied herself to give It to You has
never gone beyond the third reader,
you can rest assured that it is not
hook learning that will keep your
feet away from many pitfalls that she
can warn you from in tender, loving
fashion that you will do well to heed
The girl that feels herself superior to
| her mother in education, ard who
shows to the world at large her con-
tempt for lack that only her super
Tor good fortune prevented her from
possessing, is a figure that we are
happy to say it is not met with Oft
en-; yet it does exist, and whenever
we see a self-ComplaCent young wo-
man openly correcting her mother we
feel like giving her a good shaking,
and telling her that the plain-spOken,
ungrammatical and possibly unrefin-
| ed woman who has never had her
advantages, is in reality wiser than
she will ever be, and that to impress
outsiders a little more consideration
i5g necessary. No matter how your
mothers may speak. their hearts are
in the right place; if their attire is
old-fashiOLed ard their manners not.

ON
NEW BRIDGE SOON
ALL CONTRACTS SIGNED
READY FOR ACTUAL WORK
Contractors Say That the Work VIII
Begin at Once-Ready for Travel
by the Middle OF August-Emer-
gency Clause is Passel Last Night
Other Bills Ordered Paid-Com-
plants Concerning Posting of Bills.

All contracts for the construction
of the new steel bridge across the
Umatilla river on Lee street have now
been signed and nothing remains to
be done but actual work of erection.
This will be undertaken at once, ac-
cording to A. e. Eberhart who Sc
cured the contract for the Columbia
Bridge company and the structure
will be open to travel by the middle
of August
The final deal in the arrangements
was the passage of an emergency or
dinance, last evening, providing for
the closing up of the contract. This
was done though 1t was necessary to
send policeman out for a council
man in order to have the number pres
ent required by law for the passage
of an emergency measure.
Bills ordered Paid.
Last nights meeting was short. the

few bills, which had been carried
over from the last meeting so the
different committees could investi-
gate them, were ordered paid.
Proposals were read from DR.. F. w.
Vincent, the local manager of the
Northwestern Gas & Electric COM
pany for the furnishing of pump and
electricity to be used in pumping
water from the new well into the
cemetery reservoir. The proposals
were referred to the cemetery com
mittee.
Councilman Mumm. of the ceme-
terry committee, reported that the well
was nearing completion and that it
would soon be necessary to provide
a covering for the we'll. He was asked

Pendleton-Portland local o. R

The Pendleton- Portland local o. R.
& N. train will run on through to
Chicago next Sunday, instead OF stop
ping here as usual. In addition the
local train is to be converted into an
electric lighted limited to carry
through passengers and only stop at
the larger cities.
The following concerning the new
train service is taken from the Port
land Journal: ..,,
Portland officials of the Hartman
lines were wired from Chicago this
morning TO the effect that the new
train service between Portland and
Chicago over the o. r. & N, includ-
ing the installation of limited elec-
trio lighted train to carry first class
passengers, must go into effect on
next Sunday.
Details Of the time card of the new
service are still up in the air, and
probably will not be definitely ar
ranged until tomorrow. The receipt
of the telegram from Chicago was
unexpected, and while Hartman OIL
ficials have known for some time that
the change was brewing, it was not
supposed it would take place as early
as Sunday.
The principal change from the
present eastbound schedule is that
train No 7, which now runs only to
Pendleton, will be extended to Chi
cago. This will give the o. r. & N.
three daily trains each way to Chi
cago, and one to Kansas City and st.
Louis, by the way of the Oregon Short
Line and the Union Pacific.
One of these transcontinental trains
will probably be called the Northwest
limited. 1t is to be made up of
standard and compartment sleeping
cars, diner and observation car and

jects will be given a chance to take
these subjects over again at the next
examination which will be held June
10 and II. ......

man passengers. Time equivalent to
that made by the Overland limited be-
tween Chicago and San Francisco will
be made, and the only stops will be at
the larger cities. This, as well as all

to ascertain exactly what was needed.
Bill Posters Investigated.

Councilman Montgomery reported
that there had been numerous COM
plants relative to Pendleton's bill
posters. 1t was alleged that bills
were not properly pasted on and that
when they came off they were al
lowed to blow about the streets in
stead of being burned. 1t was as
certained that the posting company
had not paid its license for the pres
ent quarter and the mayor announced
that he would take the matter up with
the chief of police.
A request from the Pendleton WOOL
en- mill company for the vacation OF
certain streets in East Pendleton, in
the vicinity of the new plant, was left
on the table, the mayor notifying the
councilmen to meet at his office Mon

lots to answer for.
Baldheads are growing more numer-
GUS every day. Hats make excellent
breeding places for the parasitic germs
which sap the life from the roots of the

When your hair begins to fall out and
your scalp is full Of Dandruff it Is
sure sign that these countless germs are
busily at work.
There is but one way to overcome the

to apply Newbro's Herpicide to the
