he turned into a public lodging house for
two nights. Hundreds Of private residences
owned by wealthy citizens will become i'm
promptu hOstleries. and almost every door
in the city will be opened 10 visitors.
This IS Indianapolis. where the 5No-mile
international sweepstakes race will be de-
cided at the motor speedway on Memorial
Day. For months the hotels have been be-
seged with requests for reservations. and
the proposition became so enormous that
the speedway mana gement solicited the aid
OF the citizens in housing the throng OF one
hundred thousand visitors expected TO wit
ness the long race.
The citizens responded with a will, and
the result is that the majority of the resi-
dences have become places Of refuge for
the visitors. The speedway management
has established a room bureau. which has
listed hundreds of rooms for the benefit Of
visitors, and this bureau is assigning rooms
10 all who request them. The rooms will

May 80. and a clerk Will be at the speedway
Offices all night TO give the visitors a place
to lodge
This is the first time that Indianapolis
has been overtaxed, but the citizens have
met the emergency and will take care Of
all without difficulty. There IS no need Of
single visitor going without bed and
excellent accommodations. Correspondence
with the speedway room bureau will settle
any questions for the prospective specta-
tors.
The same conditions have caused the
speedway mana cement TO increase the seat

HEALTHIGRAMS
By w. c.. Cotton, M. D. Z

Poor ventilation is the indirect
cause of a large proportion of dis
eases.
Rooms warmed by gas or oil
stoves require special attention to
insure proper ventilation.
One lighted lamp or gas jet in
a room spoils more air than five
or six people.
Always remember that the fun
damental source of warmth for
the! body is within-and that too
much external heat puts out the
internal fire.
Draughts, being merely fresh
air, are not as dangerous as folks
are won't to think, but beware of
getting one on the back of your
neck. This IS dangerous.

some rug.

1880, and is now 81 years old. Mrs.

lowing year, or in 1852, they moved
across the plains to Oregon. They
took up their home near Bridgeport,
in this county, and lived there until
1907. The succeeding two years were
spent in Falls City They then re-
moved to Dallas, which has since been
their home.'

all residents of this city.

NEW TRANSMISSION LINES
Oregon Power Company Replacing
Bare Copper With Insulated Wire.

In following out the policies inaugu-
rated by Manager ]. L. White, the
construction force of the Oregon Pow
er Companys plant in Dallas has been
making many improvements lately in
the electric transmission lines about
the city. Along Washington street,
from Main to Uglow avenue all of the
old cross-arms have been removed and
replaced by new ones of the standard
type. The bare copper wires that have
heretofore done duty there have been
taken down to make room for larger
sized wire that is heavily insulated for
the purpose of bettering voltage con-
dltions and to avoid possible damage
resulting from contact with them. All
of the primary and secondary lines in
the city will receive similar treatment
before the improvements are finished.
During the month of May over $500
was spent on line repairs here, and
since the first of the year approxi-
mately 100000 feet of No. 6 insulated
copper wire has been strung.
