TUCKER WATER FLOWS
IN CITY MAINS

The water from the Tucker spring,
which will yield a million gallon sup
ply for the citizens of Hood River,
since last Friday, when Water Super
intendent Snex finished his work of
cutting over, has been flowing through
the mains and distributing pipes of the
lower city. The new municipal water
system, the work of securing which
has bees the task for local men for the
past five years, is now complete. and
no town of the size of Hood River in
the northwest has better drinking
water or better fire protection.
Every test of the water has proven
its purity. The Tucker spring is about
six and half miles out from the city
near the farm of John Hackle. The
mains to the spring were laid the past
summer and the headworks installed
by the Reliance Construction CO., of
Portland. The big reservoir on the
Heights was built by f. 0. Hall of

SAN DIEGO HAS
STRAW HAT CLUB

The latest thing devised by patriotic
San Diego citizens to impress upon the
world the reason for holding open the
San Diego exposition for the entire
year of 1915 is the Straw Hat club.
Members of this unique organization
will obligate themselves to wear while
in San Diego no other kind of hat ex-
cept those made of straw, or fire, OIL
other light materials, during every day
of 1915. And not only will they pledge
themselves to this. but in signing the
membership roll of the Straw Hat club
they will incur penalty in the form
of fine of 500 for each and every vi.
olation of their obligation.
This penalty is deemed hardly neces.
sary in the case of such we'll known

their home.
The membership of the Straw Hat
club will not be limited to millionaires,
however, and the only qualification
necessary to Membership is the posses
sion of straw hat and the courage to
wear it in public during the months
that are called winter months, but
which, in San Diego, are a succession
of halmy, sunlit days, like the May
days of elsewhere.
The Straw Hat club will have its
headquarters on the San Diego exposi-
tion grounds throughout 1915, and open
house will be kept for strangers within
the gates who will be willing to take
the obligation, and conform to the rule
of the club.
