AUTOS.
AUTO Is COMING
INTO ITS VERY OWN

With the disappearance OF old King
Winter and the advent of gentle
springtime the thoughts of Pendle-
tonians apparently have turned, not
to Thoughts of love" but to the au-
tomObile and everywhere there is a
renewed interest in the 1913 models.
SO popular has the auto become here
that many fair ones, instead OF CIV
ing their attention to the latest mil
linery creations in the downtown dis
tricts. visit the garages to inspect the
spring styles in autos, a number OF
which have been received during the
past few days.
From a small and unimportant be-
ginning the auto industry has devel-
oped steadily in a few short years to
one OF the greatest activities OF the
age furnishing employment to armies
OF workmen. Pendleton, in common
with the other cities of the west Is
in the forefront when autos are to be
considered. The dealers here are
prepared to handle a recOrd-breaking
trade during the spring and summer.
Several of the dealers have placed
orders for carload lots to be deliver
ed at intervals during the year, it be-
ing their belief that the demand will
extend until the snow flurries Of next
fall, and perhaps later. The last few
days have brought an unprecedented
amount of interest in the motor car
world, chiefly because the weather
has been such as to indicate the pres
ence Of spring. Each new car as 1t
is unloaded. becomes at once the CEN
ter OF a group of critics, who examine
1t closely and pass upon its good, bad
and Indifferent features, much in the
same manner that a number Of horse
men would pass upon the qualities

tuberculosis Emblem Standardized

A special committee of The National
Association for the study and proven
ton of tuberculosis. of which DR..
Henry Barton Jacobs of Baltimore
is chairman, announces today the ex-
act proportions of the double red
cross, the international tuberculosis
emblem, which have been adopted for
use in the United States. Every or
! ganization or institution dealing with
tuberculosis will be urged to use the
emblem in its correct proportions.
Although the double red cross was
adopted for use in the United States
in 1906 as the symbol of the crusade
against tuberculosis, no effort was
made to standardize the shape or pro-
portions, with the result that hundreds
of difficult formed emblems are now
being used in this country. After a
year of study of the history and artis-
tic merits of all the designs availa-
| Bile, the National Association has final
| ly chosen one in which all of the arms
are pointed, the two cross-arms being
of the same length. The width of
the cross is taken as the unit in de-
termining the proportions. The length
of the lower leg is units; the arms
are units on either side; the point "a
bove the arms 212 units; and the dis
lance between the arms, Ia units.
These measurements hold good for
any size.
The double red cross was first "a
dopted as the symbol of the Inter
national Anti-Tuberculosis Associa-
ton in Berlin, in October, 1902 The
proposer of the symbol was DR.. G.
Sersiron, of Paris, who is now Asso-
ciate Secretary Of L'Association Cen
trale Franchise Contre la Tubercu-
lose Today the emblem is being used
by anti-tuberculosis workers in every
part of the world, even in Iceland, In
dia, South Africa, Labrador, Japan,
CulHd anu the iHlllpplueS' ne uoup-
lie red cross is similar in shape to
cross used frequently in the Greek
Catholic Churches, and also to the
Lorraine Cross of France.
In the United States. over 1900 anti
tuberculosis associations and commit
tees, nearly $50 sanatoria and hospi
tails; 400 dispensaries and about 200
open air schools, besides a number of
other organizations, are using the
double red cross as their emblem.
Wherever it is seen, it means war
against tuberculosis.

ed by three men, Frank and Norman
Ellis, and Louis Ahrens, the latter
from New York city who was spend
ing a few days in Dyer Brook with rel
atives and friends. These three gave
chase after the monster, which ran
directly into an old barn on the farm
big doors and the moose was captive,
although trying hard to batter down
the strong walls of the barn. A rope
was secured and creeping softly into
the enclosure where the moose stood
at bay, lasso was thrown over his
head and then the fun began The fell
low who held the rope quickly Skinned
beam while the other two stood upon
the scaffold with another rope and be
gan to wind it around the moose, who
was trying his utmost to escape. AT
ter a time he was secured Mr.. All
rens, although great at hunting, but
filled with the right kind of sand
approached the moose, when the ami
NAL made plunge at him and he took
up the nearest post to escape with
his life. This feat was not on the pro-
gramme, and was not repeated. The
moose was led out of the barn and his
photo taken After the townspeople
had all seen him, the monster was
turned loose and lost no time in hik-
ing for the woods. This is the first case
on record of a moose entering a barn
when routed from a feeding ground.
As a rule they will make for the woods,
but somehow this moose got bewil-
dered and landed in the barn.-Mars

Topographic Mapping

Topographic mapping and investi-
cations of the water supply of various
sections of Maine are being carried on
this season by the United States Geo
logical Survey in cooperation with
the Maine State Water Storage Com
mission. The field work includes the
mapping of the areas known as the
Wadoboro and Washington Pond 10
minute quadrangles in Lincoln, Knox,
and Waldo counties. These quad
rangles have each an approximate
area of 215 square miles. The work is
being done by Topographers w. II.
Griffin, j. II. LeFeaver, J. M. Perkins,
and j. H. Davey. This mapping will
include the detailed surveys necessary
to prepare maps according to the US
ual standard of the Geological Sur
vey's topographic work in Maine,
showing all rivers, towns, roads, and
lief of the country by means of 20
foot contour lines. The completed
maps will be engraved on the scale of
mile to l inch and will probably be
ready for distribution about two years
after completion of the field work. In
its Investigations of surface water the
Geological Survey publishes records OF
stream flow in Maine which are furn-
ished by the State Water Storage Com
mission Cyrus c. Babb, chief engineer,
and which include hydrometric data
collected at 90 gaging stations and rec
Moosehead Lake, Green Lake, and
Branch Lake. At these gaging sta
tons the height or stage of the rivers
is determined each day by local OBJ
servers and measurements of the dis
charge of the streams are made by
engineers of the survey. From these
data the quantity of water flowing past
the stations is determined. This in
formation is of use in Maine chiefly in
the design, construction, and mainte-
nance of power plants, in the study
of water storage, and in the selection
of suitable water supplies for munic-
qualities. The records are published in
the annual report of the Maine State
Water Storage Commission and in the
water-supply papers of the United
States Geological Survey. Information
relative to stream flow in Maine may
be obtained by application to c. c.
Babb, chief engineer, State House,
Augusta. Maine, or to the director,
