SALE OF AUTOMOBILE
IN 1914 GREATEST IN
HISTORY OF INDUSTRY
Deduction of Prominent Portland Deal
er Is That Motor Is Necessity, Not
a Luxury.

Portland, Or, Marie l3.-"The year
of 1914 witnessed the highest mark in
both the production and sale of auto
mobiles since the inception Of the in
dustry. With general business nothing
to boast Of, so.caled luxury looms up
with big sales increase, says H. l..
Keats, northwest distributor Of the
Chalmers line.
"The deduction is plain, The motor.
ear is positively and concmsivcly not a
luxury, but real necessity in carrying
on the affairs of this high gcared cen
tury. Indeed the term pleasure ear
commonly used to distinguish the pas
scnger automobiles from freight carry.
ing motor vehicles conveys an entirely
erroneous and misleading impression,
"The keenness of competition in the
work of the world, as it is carried on
today, makes success largely dependent
upon the conservation of time, The
minutes count, and automobiles save
hours Of them daily.
cam analysis of 1914 sales proves
that very large per centage Of ma
chimes were bought for carefully com
puted economical purpose. Business
houses have found through the use Of
ears they can multiply the efficiency of
their outside force, not only enabling
them to expand their zone Of operations
but to cover the old ground in a frac.
tion Of the time formerly consumed,
The professional man has long rccogni2.
ed the economical value Of the automo.
bile, and is plainly handicapped with.
out one.
"Obscryo that ! have considered only
the so-cullcd pleasure cars, The mo.
tor truck has just as big, and probably
an even more useful future The great
Euorpcun war has shown what q won
dertul utility the power driven vehicle
is, not | nm glad to say as an engine
of destruction, but principally as first
aid to the commIssary and hospta
forces.
"lct the automobile has only Just
begun its work, and its possibilities ar,
still unknown or unapprccioted in ma
ior portion of the world 1t will figur,
ms u main factor in the extension OF
civilization boundaries, and its us,

AUTOS EAT UP
WHEAT MONEY
Farmers Spend Big Receipts for Ma
chimes and improvements to Houses
at Pendleton.

Carloads of automobiles arriving
every week in Pendleton and other
towns in the wheat belt, give an an.
swer to the question: Where is the
money going that has been received
for the wheat crop2
Portland bankers have been trying
to discover where the wheat money has
gone, and they have been unable to.
agree as to their findings. It is esti.
mated that $40,000,000 has been re-
ceived for grain, but the bank deposits
in the interior give no indication that
they have received any large share of
this golden stream. One local banker
says that the country banks dealing
with him have paid up completely, ar
guing from this that his country Gus
toners must have handled large share
Of the money.
A Portlander who represents three
foreign concerns which specialize in
farm mortgages, declares that no more
mortgages are being sped out than
ordinarily, although interest payments
are being met promptly.
lHlo'"dlOH lIuIl lhc lHldhu EN-
pire is to the effect that the farmer
who owned a motor ear has bought n
new one and has bought one or two
more for the children; that houses are
being painted or new houses built, but
that apparently the farmers are not
spending any considerable sums with
their local merchants nor making heavy
deposits with the banks.
Only small part of the northwest
wheat crop is still on hand. The re-.
serve is variously estimated from
100000 bushels to 100000 bushels.
The first figure is said to be too low
and the other figure too high, so prob.
ably 100000 bushels is o good com.
promise.

The Girl on the Cover

Women and Girls-Also

II has become almost impossible for
young women without previous theat-

ments in motion picture productions.
Long lists OF experienced theatrical
people are waiting for engagements
and there is little opportunity for the
amateurs to gain livelihood via mo
ton picture acting. And some OF
these girls would be sadly disiliusion-
lied, too. should they engage in the
art. When your screen favorite ap-
pears III the coy theatre and the or
chestra plays and there is applause,
the girls may be pardoned for longing
to become film fayorites like the 9TH

ton however. The other side is not
so attractive There is the hard toll
which every movie actress must I'M
dergo Frequently work starts at
a. M. and does not finish until late
at night There are no bright lights,
no applause in the actual work OF
movie acting. Instead there is the
sometimes gloomy studio, suffocating-
iy hot under the glass roof in the sum-
mer time, often unbearably cold in the
big barn-like structure in the winter
time, there is the director who does
not hesitate to reprimand; there are
the scenes to be rehearsed time and

there are the hazards which are nec-

the thrills longed for by the audiences
