MAKES FINE RUN
Breaks the Record From Port
land to Government Camp
by Twenty Minutes
By R. R. L'HOMMEDIEU

Previous records for the trip by
automobile over the sandy roads and
steep grades from Portland. ore, to
Government camp, close to the snow
line of Mount Hood, have been shat
tered by c. NJ. Menzies of Portland.
He made the distance of So miles in
three hours fiat with an air cooled
double rumble Franklin runabout of
~ horsepower, breaking the record by
20 minutes. Later. speaking of the
run Menzies said:
We started at the Burnside bridge.
crossing the Willamette river, driv
! ing four miles through the city, where
we could not exceed % miles an hour,
and from the city limits to the Sandy
postoffice, distance of 20 miles of
| fairly good roads. We covered dis
tance of so miles from the Burnside
bridge to the Sandy postofiice in As
minutes. with three persons in the car
besides myself.
From the Sandy postoffice to Rho
! dodendron inn, a distance of is miles,
over the toughest kind of mountain
roads. we covered in one hour and 80
minutes.
AT Rhododendron inn I picked up
ting on the running board and the
other on a stool in front OF the rear
seat, making six passengers.
Il drove from this place to Govern
ment camp. a distance of 10 miles, over
the toughest kind of mountain roads.
rising about $500 feet in this distance,
through from about four to six inches
of and, in 45 minutes
This latter run of 10 miles is known
all over the coast as the 10 miles hill,
the hardest on an automobile in this
country.
Il made but one stop. about two min
utes. This was to pay toll and allow
the tollgate man to let me pass
through. / did not, however, stop the
engine.
ION reaching the top of the hill at
Government camp, which is about two
miles from the snow line of Mount
Hood, there were some dozen or so
automobile people and they surrounded
my car and wondered how in the world
| could make such run up this hill
with an air cooled car.
Il had not yet stopped my engine.
l then opened the throttle and pulled
out the spark plug and the engine
stopped as nice as could be. | could
not get a move out of IL.
L remained at Government camp
long enough to eat lunch and drove
back and met two cars on the way
which l had passed on my way up"

Tom Fitch Coming Back

Tom Fitch. the ancient silver. tongued, will once more shy his political fortunes in a new state, and withing the next three months will come to Phoenix and put his feet under Judge Ainsworth's desk and say, Hail to the star of Ari- zona." Fitch has been resident of almost every state west of Kansas, and it will be the fourth time he has come to Arizona to "grow up with the country"
 The one. time raven locks of the gentleman are now showing the silver, but his tongue, that marvel ous gift of speech that has charmed thousands of people, is still unim- paired, and no doubt his silver warblings will be heard on the Ari- zona rostrum this fall in behalf of the republican party.
 Colonel Fitch is dear old char acter. Arizona people love him and his oratorical powers, and every oldtimer in Arizona will bid Colonel Fitch a hearty welcome back to the territory he loves so we'll. ll.-Democrat.

Reflections of a Bachelor

The only kind of gossip a woman can hate is when it's about herself.
 A girl is so naturally amia ble that when men are around she can like hot weather if it is half killing her.
 The more a man could save going home nights the more he will waste pretending it was working late at the office.
 A woman can't help being proud of her husband for owning an automobile if he has to take it out of the butchers and grocer.
 The first real knowledge a bride gets of man is how he can want to go out and fight dragons all day but vel murder at home over a little stomach ache.
 The hardest money to get to spend is when you married for it.
 The harder it is to support a big family the easier it is to get one.
 The way to make woman enjoy yachting trip is to photograph her on 1t.

OBSERVATIONS OF
 A CLODHOPPER
BY TEMPEST

The chimes of the village bells signal the Sabbath morning and call together the little flock of the faithful
 In wonder cities the laundering of massive brazen and cast bells proclaim to he legions the day of worship.
 The derilect steeped in sin bows his head in reverence of the day while the man under the silk hat plans an excursion or plunge on the turf, the baseball enthusiast hoarsely cries "play ball."
 Millions are deaf to the melodies emanating from open sanctuaries and Sunday school rooms. Life has but one end, "Get rich" They never ponder over who the great architect of this universe may be. nor do they worry about their after life.
 Along the steel patte of the iron steed a hobo plods along. His clothing gives mute evidence of neglect and poverty. The lines that mark his brow and play about his mouth and eyes bespeak the storms that beat upon the rocky steeps of his life. The silver threads that mingle with the brown betray the flight of years.
 A bandana handkerchief en virons his sole earthly possessions and mnch worn locket hidden in a greasy tobacco sack holds the picture of one long since loved and gone.
 faintly to his ear comes the elfn like music of the distant bells, and our friend paused. He thinks of the prayers he said at mothers knee, when the world seemed better than it does now.
 Tears coursed down his furrowed cheeks and he rests himself on a pile of rails and listens to the music that brings back the past in vivid and faithful recollection.
 Once he attended the church with the tall spires and golden voiced bells, once he lead the meet ings. At one time he was accom- panied by one he loved. One time he worshiped God with a true heart but alas.
 There came storms, the heavens grew dark, the thunders believed from peak to peak, and the forked lightnings pierced with flame the hopes and ideals fostered by him. The rain and hail descended and beat at his very soul.
 In the blackness of the flood he called for help from the sanctimo nious throng he once mingled with, but no succor in his distress. Blinded by the terrible revelations the misplaced mantle of religion held he fled into the stygian black ness of sin and storm for help.
 In the grasp of worldliness he found the grip of selfishness. the stain of sin, the hallucinations of the flowing bowl and the spirits of deceit, and enemy unmasked. He dealt with them according.
 Over the way the minister called to the drifting soul to return to the fold but in vain, for in the church of God he had found hypocrisy, envy and deceit cloaked and masked while in the cold world they fought in the open and unto death. At last footsore and weary our friend arose and with a sigh, went on his way. believing there is God and that after all if there were hypocrits he need not to have emulated them.
