OMAHA TO CLEAN
UP FOR THE SPRING
All Yards and Alleys to Be Raked
and Put in Shape Today and
Saturday.
WAGONS TO COLLECT MONDAY

Citizens are urged to put forth a
special effort today and Saturday
to clean their yards and alleys. Be-
ginning next Monday, the wagons Of
the city street maintenance depart
ment will collect this material with
out charge to householders.
The free collection will be re-
stricted to such rubbish as may ordi-
narily be raked up in yards. but will
mot include ashes, garbage or general
household rubbish. The thought is
that householders who throw dis
carded articles of wear or such large
articles as old gasoline stoves into
these heaps need not expect to have
the material hauled away by the city
free of charge.
Ashes Not Moved.
On the other hand. Il is explained that
the collectors will not draw the lire too
closely. II there is an old pair of shoes
OF a tin can or two in the heap Of rub
bish no objection will be made. But ashes
will not be removed on this occasion.
HousehoIders are expected to have their
ashes and discarded perambulators and
other articles hauled away by men who
make this business.
Health Commissioner Cornell lie coop
Grating in this campaign by directing his
inspectors TO serve notices in cases where
householders have allowed unsanitary 40
cumulations OF rubbish in their yards OF
alleys. In such cases removal is made
compulsory and comes within the prov
ince of the health department.

PROMINENT PHILAN-
THROPIST is VISITOR

Edward Lee McClain, Sr., accompa-
MED by his wife and daughter, Miss
Helen McClain, of Greenfield, Ohio,
was in the valley last week visiting his
son, Edward Lee McClain, Jr. MIR.
McClain is prominent in Ohio financial
circles. He was nominated for the
board of directors of the Federal Re-
serve Bank of his district, but on ac-
count of active business relations which
made heavy demands on his time he
declined the esponsibility.
Mr.. McClain, who is heavy invest
or in this community, his local affairs
being in charge of his son whom he is
visiting. has won renown throughout
the Ohio and Mississippi valleys for his
philanthropy. His latest gift to the
public is presented in a $500, 600 high
school building, which bears the donor S
name. at Greenfield, his native city.
The structure, which has been referred
to as the most modern in architecture
and equipment to be found in the
United States, was dedicated Septem-
ber 2, and 4, celebrities in the educa-
tional world being present from all
parts of the United States.
The McClain party spent the latter
part of last week at the Pendleton
Round Up. They will motor over the
Columbia river highway and visit the
California expUsitions.

Older BUT STRONGER

To be healthy at seventy, prepare at
forty, is sound advice, because in the
strength of middle life we too often forget
that neglected colds, or careless treat
ment of slight aches and pains, simply
undermine strength and bring chronic
weakness for later years.
To be stronger when older, keep your
blood pure and rich and active with the
strength building and blood-nourishing
properties of Scott Emulsion which is a
food, tonic and medicine TO keep your
blood rich, alleviate rheumatism and
avoid sickness. No alcohol in SCOTS.

Boy Scouts Elect Officers

Troop of the Boy Scouts of Amer.
lea. of Hood River, held their semi-an-
nual election of officers last Friday
night at the residence of c. X. Mar.
shal. The following officers of the
Troop were elected for the ensuing six
months: Selman Gassoway, patrol lead.
er Wilbur Hoyt, secretary, and Myron
HOyt. treasurer. For the sports they
intend to indugle in, Lloyd Blowers
was elected football captain; Vane
Ford. baseball captain; Selman Gasso-
way, track captain; and Arnold Mitch
ell, tennis captain.
This meeting was held at the Mar
shal residence because Rev. A. S. Do.
nat, sCOutmaster, was not in town SO
that it could not be held at the Congre-
gational church. Mr.. Doaat is expected
to return Monday. 1t is generally
known that the local scouts at present
have not a very large organization
this is partly the boys fault, and part
ly the hand of fate. Scoutmasters Do
nat and Brunquist at present have not
the right amount of time to give to
the boys, which is essential to q good
organization.
However, the troop will be given a
great push toward that bissful condi-
tion called success, this winter. Mark
Moe, ex-scout, one who has been
through the mill, is going to devote his
extra time for the benefit of the troop.
They will be given instruction in regu-
lar scout work, together with having
their games, and probably by next
spring there will be a number of sec.
ond class scouts in the troop, whereas
there are none now.
To join the organization boy must
be at least IL years of age and then
pass the tenderfoot test. The dues for
the first month are rs cents, for each
following month, 10 cents. So let us
each hope for a greater membership,
and ultimately greater Troop.

TASMANIAN VISIT
0RS ARE PLEASED

Attracted by the community's or
chards. its scenery and because they
have seen the exhibit at the Panama
Pacific international exposition, people
not only from the four corners of the
United States but from every section
of the globe have visited the Hood
River valley this summer. But the
Apple Valley has entertained no more
enthusiastic tourists than Mr.. and Mrs.
l.. NJ. ShOobridge, of Hobart, Tas-
mania, who made mecca Friday to
Van Horns Butte, the point from
which the great colOred panorama of
the orchard district, hung in the Ore
gon building, was taken.
MIR. Shoobridge owns one of Tas-
mania's largest tracts. The addition
of Hobart. in which is located his
home, is called Newtown. 81 find, "
he said after seeing the local orchards,
that your methods of culture do not
differ radically from ours. You prune
somewhat differently. One of our chief
varieties of apples, one that ! have not
found in America, is the Stermer Pip
pin. II has many of the qualities of
the Newtown. We have Spitzenburgs
in Australia"
MIR. Shoobridge says that the Euro
pean war will cripple his industry bad
ly for the time being. "And, too, " he
says, I'VE had a severe drought last
year from which we have not yet re-
covered. Our fruit for the most part
is shipped to England. However, we
send some to the Orient and to India. q"
Mr.. Shoobridge has spent more than
three months in seeing the United
States. He went as far east as Bos-
ton and New York. "Oregon appeals
to US more than any state we have
seen," declares the Tssmanian apple
man. 81 took motor trip up from
Portland over the Columbia river high
way. We simply reveled in the seem
cry. | only wish we had something
like that in our country"
The visitors were taken TO Van Horn
Butte Friday morning by Kenneth Nc
Kay.
