| The first move to prepare for what
ever paving the city council expects t.
let during the coming season was taker
at the council meeting Monday after.
noon when Councilman Herman sub
mitted list of streets and avenues
that should be paved No action was
taken and nothing further was done
than dicuss the subject in general.
! 1t is probable that within a few
weeks at the most the council will take
! some definite action. as all the mem
bers see the need of letting the con-
tract as soon as possible.
List Of Streets.
Councilman Herman presented his
list Of streets as a suggestion of what
was needed. and as he expressed it. tc
start the ball rolling" This list in
cludes thirty three blocks. and he said
the council would probably want to add
some other streets to it or cut some
out The following is the list sug-
gested
Second street Church to Lincoln.
Third street. Main to Church.
Fourth street Main to Church.
Fifth street. Church to State.
Seventh street. Church to Jerome.
Eighth street, Main to Church.
Thirteenth street, Main to Summit.
Church street, Fifth to Seventh
avenue.
Seventh avenue. Church to Main.
Sixth avenue, Main to Linn.
Linn street. Sixth avenue to First
street
First street. Church to Linn street
North street, Center to Second
avenue
Mostly interesting Streets.
The majority in this list are inter-
secting streets, whose ends touch
paved streets Paving these intersect-
ing streets would connect up and make
continuous and more useful the streets
that are already paved.
There are few streets, notably
Thirteenth and East Linn. which are
included in the list. in which this is
not entirely the case. However, with
Seventh avenue paved south OF Main
street, and Linn street paved in the
Fourth ward, section of the city that
has had no paving would be supplied
Thirteenth Street . Problem.
| w ME IL IS SIedIlS ue:sllCu " paw e
Thirteenth street from Main street tc
the soldiers home gate, it is recognized
that the paving of this street is to be
accomplished only with difficulty and
! Considerable expense to the city. The
v)uncil is aware that it will not be able
to tax nearly all of the cost of the
paving to the abutting property, es-
pecially on the west side Of the street
Most Of the property on that side OF
| the street is vacant lots. On the other
| side is st. Thomas hospital. that has
long frontage on the street, and will
! probably demand aid II assessed for
the full amount of the paving that
would fall to it as its share.
At the same time probably no other
street has been so expensive for the
city to maintain as Thirteenth street
The cost of the upkeep in the vicinity
Of the bridge alone has been very
| heavy.

Beauty Recipe.

Dr. F. H. Green, the great lecturer,
gave this beauty. recipe" in one of his
addresses: Hear some beautiful mus
ic. see beautiful picture, read some
beautiful literature every day." All
this, recognizing the close relation be-
tween soul and body, is perfectly
reasonable. 1t is better than all cos
metics, rouges or drugs ever heard Of.
The picture, the music, the literature
impresses the mind, which gives form
and tone to the physical expression
OF course, this little experience must
be sincerely considered, unselfshly
and lovingly done. A put on apprecia-
tion Of art will not avail. The true
love Of the beautiful makes beauty,
This is scientific fact, as sure and
steadfast as that sugar will sweeten
coffee. But one has to get meanness,
Ill will. suspicion, revenge out OF ones
heart, to make good use of the recipe; 4;
to give play to the beauty OF the art
The starry sky, the songs OF the
birds, glimpse of woods, flower
sprinkled lawn-these have the came
effect. They make beauty for whoever
loves them sincerely.-Ohio State

To Avoid the Runty Pig.

Runty pigs stand a poor show at
the feeding trough with a bunch Of
their husky brothers and sisters. AS
they are crowded out of place natur-
ally they do not get enough to eat to
keep them growing. and they stay
runty.
A trough arranged with v-shaped
partitions set strongly in the trough,
would give the little fellows an equal
show with the big ones, and the
weaker ones could get their share of
food. A handy man can make such
trough arrangement in an hour or
so, and the even growth Of his pigs
would more than pay for his trouble

PROPER FEED FOR THE COLT

Lambs and Parasites.

The greatest loss of lambs Is due
to tape, stomach and lug worms, and
these parasites are always most
numerous in old pastures; the proper
plan is to frequently shift pastures.
When they are attacked there are
numerous remedies. but one Of the
simplest and best is two tablespoon
fuls gasoline in four ounces of sweet
milk, used as drench twice about

lAveraue Amount Of sIeep.

Usually the amount of sleep is in
inverse ratio to the strength and de-
velopment Of consciousness. Thus
children need more sleep than adults.
Some men need very little rest and
the same may be said Of women.
However, eight hours is the average
amount required by the human body
to restore its vitality by complete
rest.
II less is taken ones health Is apt
to be impaired. A good nights sleep
will do more toward building up gen.
eral health than all the tonics known.

ROGERS PLANS TO
LEAD ALPINE TOUR

Homer A. Rogers. whose ranch in
the Upper Valley is almost in the
shadow of Mt. Hood plans on leading
a party of American young men on a
tour of the Alps. Mr. Rogers, before
coming west, spent five summers in
the Alpine region and was the young
est American ever to have climbed the
Matter Horn. The party will be com
posed of about ten men, as il is now
planned, the most of them, it is
thought, will be members of the Sierra
Club Of California.
Mr.. Rogers says: "The trip will
cover eighty-eight days, leaving New
York June p and returning due in
New York September II.
Mr.. Rogers says: Mountaineering
is dependant upon matters which
are so variable, such as the wealth
er and the ability, strength and
inclination Of the party, that il would
be impracticable and certainly very
unpleasant to try strictly to follow a
definite daily schedule. The mountain
eering portion OF the itinerary has
accordingly been left and will be sub
ject to any kind of cha, gas which may
seem advisable While the general
route will be followed, the details will
be altered from time to time to suit
the various conditions of weather, etc,
which may arise.
"Ihe excursion is intended to be a
good deal more than a mere walk or
tramp at low attitudes. Some of the
grandest glacier trips in the Alps and
passes have been planned a truly glor-
ious summers outing at high attitudes
among the great Alpine giants.

IMPROVE VALLEY
ROADS" ADVISED

Editor Glacier:-0n account Of my
views favorable TO the construction Of
water grade Ioad out OF town up
Hood River. some people take excep-
ton to me as candidate for county
commissioner. In regard TO this
want to say that if am county CON
missioner and a petition is presented
for granting this road, and it there IS
no remonstrance, will vote in favor
of granting the petition. But I there
is a remonstrance against the petition
greater than the petition, I will OF
course have to vote aganst granting
the petition.
In this connection | want Go also say
that a man in Portland recently wanted
me to ship him IA boxes If apples.
The road to town was to- muddy to
take them that way, so ! started with
them to Mohr's Station and before |
got to that place ! had 10 tighten nv
load by taking off five boxes on ac-
count of the mud. The road that day
was a fair sample of all Tie roads in
Hood River county for the same dis
tance.
Shortly after that | was attending
stockholders meeting of the East
Fork lrrigatiug COMPANY TO devise
ways and means for paying the inter
est on its bonded indebtedu5s and for
running expenses. | understand that
the other irrigating ditch companies
are in the same trouble-m0rtgaged to
the limit. A man at this meeting
stated that the public and private in
debtedness of this county was. | am
ashamed to put it IN print Our taxes
are mounting higher and higher, and ]
do not object to being taxed for public
improvements. But | do eHiect to
having any OF my taxes applied on an
automobile road along the Columbia
river from Hood River to Portland till
after our own roads are in good shape
and until we can pay our taxes without
borrowing the money, and until we
have a few more of the necessities and
possibly few luXuries al home.
Those who want to oppose me on this
account had better drop me and seek
out some other person to carry out
their wishes. If any one wants to
donate his private money to be used on
this road or if the people iu the road
districts through which this road runs
want their money used on this road,
well and good, but tha, would be
another matter. i. T. Friday.
