Portable Lawns of Grass Carpet

Living grass carpets that may be
used as table covers, coats, or for
making temporary or permanent lawns
are noS manufactured in England.
They are really living carpets, for the
grass with which they are covered con-
tinues to grow in whatever place or
use the carpet is put. as shown by IL
lustrations in the October Popular Me-
chsnics Magazine. To make them,
millions of grass seeds are sown on a
strip of carpet in green house and al
lowed to sprout and grow. When the
grass has taken root, the carpet can be
handled like a rag. IL temporary
lawn is desired, the ground is rolled
and the carpet laid down in strips /;
afterward it can be taken up and used
elsewhere. When it is allowed to re-
main in one place, it takes root and
forms a beautiful lawn. An entire
lawn can be laid in day and two
lengths of carpet will make a cricket

MEDF0RD RATE BILL
UNCONSTITUTIONAL

When the federal court, through
Judge Wolverton, declared the MedforG
rate bill unconstitutional, there went
into the ash can enc of the most exotic
acts ever adopted through the initia.
tive route in Oregon. The law was
never understood by the railroads, by
the shippers, by the State Railroad
commissioners, or by the people who
vote for il, and il was knocked out hy
the federal courts on the ground that
If enforced it would practically contis.
cate the property of the railroads anC
would upset all existing methods anC
system of rate making.
Scarcely had 1t become law wher
it was savagely attacked. not only by
the railroad traffic men, but by ship
pers in various parts of the state, ant
a temporary injunction was sued out il
the federal court so as TO- test its cons.
titutionalty.
IL is doubtful if the Railroad Com.
mission will take an appeal. Commits.
sioner Clyde B. Aitchison takes this
view of the act.
''At hest there was no reason foI
such Legislation. Existing laws con.
denim unjust and unreasonable rates
and forbid unjust determinations in
every form. If there ever was any
reason Tor the adjustment which the
authors of the bin sought to accom-
plish, and which the court has charac-
terized as arbitrary and incongrous, it
could have been secured by an appeal
to the Commission. "

j. M. SCHMELTZER
DIES SUDDENLY

j. NJ. Schneider, the youngest mem
Der Of the city council and organizer OF
the Hood River Abstract Co., of which
he has been one of the owners for the
past five years, died last Saturday
evening at the Cottage hospital. Mr..
Schme!tzer had submitted to an opera
tion for acute appendicitis two weeks
previously. He had stood the operation
we'll and was thought on the road to
recovery, when a relapse set in. The
suddenness with which Mr.. Schmelt-
zer's end came after he became worse
caused a great shock to his many
friends.
The funeral services were conducted
at the Riverside Congregational church
Monday afternoon Dy Rev. Z. A. Har-
rs and Rev. +. Z. Mcnamara. The
members of the city council and mem
bers of the Odd Fellows and Rebekah
lodge attended the church in body.
and the burial rites of the fraternal or
ganizatOns were observed at the
grave. In the death of Mr.. Schmeltzer,
the city has lost one of its most prom
inent young business men, cut down in
his prime, Just as he was begiDBng q
career of usefulness and honor. No
man in the county had a larger circle
of friends and acquaintance than Mr..
Schneider, and the Congregational
church was crowded by those attending
to pay their last tribute. The altar of
the church was banked with beautiful
floral tributes. All business houses
we're closed during the hour OF the fu-
neral.
Mr.. Schneider was born August Ia,
1878, in Manteno, Ill. He was left
motherless early in life. Until the age
of Is he remained at home on the farm.
In 1903 he came to Oregon, and in 1904
settled in Hood River. In 1907, he
was married to Miss Florence Lydia
Sharp. He leaves surviving his wife

H0LGATE BADLY In
JURED in RUNAWAY

While James II. Holgate, who re-
Gently moved to this city from Boyd, a
town south of The Dalles in Wasco
county, was adjusting straps to his
harness Monday morning, his big team
became frightened and running away
dragged him several hundred feet,
badly breaking one of his legs in two
places. MIR. Holgate was pEparing to
drive to Boyd. He had just hitched
the team to light rig that had been
secured from Landscape Gardener Nc
D0well. The wagon was demolished.
While the injuries are very serious ard
painful, it is thought the victim of the
runaway accident will recover.
Several years ago, while riding from
The Dalles with his former wife, Mr..
Holgate's team became frightened.

W u % AiOpieHS ddtHefthg Vtdh
1919; 4:1-11.
The Lords dealings with Israel show
us that justice, love, mercy, loyalty to
God and to principle are in the Divine
estimation the highest qualities, and
their violation the most serious crime.
IL we have not looked thus at matters,
It behooves us to change our view
point and to take the Almighty's.
This mufmurlng against the Lord
was concerning the mama, for which
at first the people had been very thank
ful. They allowed their minds to be-
come so vexed that they wept like chill
dren at the thought of the fleshpots of
Egypt, and murmured In desiring to re-
turn to the old conditions. Little did
they comprehend the situation. Had
they returned to bondage, even after
years freedom. their lot would have
seemed more wretched than before.
Moses Too Greatly Burdened.
The result of this murmuring was
severe upon Moses. He was the peo-
Plies representative before the Lord,
and the Lords representative before
the people. Heart-broken, he sought
the Lord, saying that the burden was
too heavy for him to bear.
Then 1t was that God directed the
institution of the Jewish Sanhedrin-
seventy Elders, to be the court of
judges, responsible to the people, to
deal with and to counsel them. While
Moses renuined head of the nation, the
seventy shared his responsibility.
By Divine direction Moses made out
the Ia of these Elders, and requested
them TO meet him at the Tabernacle.
All but two came. There God honor
ed Moses as the head of the nation, and
then placed a share OF the responsible
ity upon the 20. This was indicated by
their prophesying. Even the two who
remained in the Camp prophesied.
Quail In over-supply.
God then sent word to Israel through
Moses that he was about to send them
thirty-days' supply of flesh, such as
they had murmured for. Under the
Lords providence, strong wind drove
thousands Of quail to the vicinity Of
the Camp. Two days and nights the
people gathered quail.
Agnostics have questioned this state
ment, thinking 1t a declaration that
birds fell in solid mass two cubits
high. The proper thought is that the
birds, driven across the sea, were so
fatigued that they flew low, about two
cuHts three feet above the ground,
where they could be easily caught.
The murmurers ate so heartily that
pestilence broke out among them a
fever from over-eating, called "a fire.
from the Lord" Many died and were
buried there. The place was called
Kibroth- Hattaavah-"Graves of GreeI-
mess" Thus tlfe Lord permitted the
unthankful to cut themselves off from
further opportunity for murmuring.
The chappiest mental condition con-
ceivable is Ilat which Is satisfied with
Gods appointments. The spirit Of dis
content looks away from the Heavenly
Mamma, longing for other food. To

That the automobile driven by Fred
Teucke. foreman of the Schuman gar
age. who was killed Sunday afternoon
when the machine turned over on him
was going at rate of little less thar
80 miles an hour at the time Of the
accident, was the testimony offered by
Robert Puryis during the session of
the coroner's jury this afternoon.
Puryis said that he was riding In
car driven by Carter Gait, and that
they passed Teucke's machine when

Wis said that he had occasion to look
around, and that he saw the machine

of the accident the machines we're go
ing down grade and rounding a short
turn. Purvis said that he and Gait
got cut of their machine and went
back to where the wrecked car lay,
and that at the time he thought that
he smelt liquor on Teucke. He also
said that the way in which Teucke
was driving his car prompted him to
believe that he was under the inffu-
ence of liquor.
DIR. e. C. Waterhouse, who attended
Teueke after the accident, made a
statement before the jury to the effect
that the man died of shock and internal
injuries. Several witnesses ara to APP

In the death of Fred Teucke, fore

was killed as result of the oyerturn-
ing of an automobile while travelling
near Leilehua in the direction of Ho.
nolulu last Sunday afternoon, inves-
tigation made today by Special OFF,
GERS Chiffon and Ferry, it is believed
will reveal the fact that the machine
did not turn over through any defect
or breakdown in its. machinery.
Following a careful inspection OF
the automobile and the scene of the
accident, the officers are now inclined
to the opinion that the car driven by
Teucke was going along the road at
very fast pace.
