HOW TO GET RID OF
CHRONIC DANDRUFF

The only sure way to get perman-
entity rid of dandruff is to remove the
conditions that cause II and then keep
the hair and scalp in a clean. healthy,
vigorous state so dandrufI will never
return. This beats shampoos. which
merely remove the dandruff for few
days at most Lee & Osgood are now
strongly recommending Partisan Sage,
a harmless, inexpensive and quick act
ing preparation. that is guaranteed to
act directly on the cause of dandrun
ard entirely remove IL or the pur-
chase price will be cheerfully refunded.
Here is a test no one should fail to
try. Get from your druggist a pack
age of Partisan Sage. Rub a little Of
II into the scalp with the finger tips
and see for yourself how the dandruff
disappears. the hair stops falling out
and all itching Immediately ceases.
Nothing hurts the hair more than dan
drum, so why not begin using Partisan
Sage today and be: forever rid Of it7

COMPLETES YEAR AS POSTMASTER
Past Year Has Been Very Successful for Postmaster John P
Mwphy-Postal Receipts Show Increase-Equal Ad-
in Money Order and Postal Savings Departments.

receipts Of the year show a decided
increase and there has been an equal
savings in the money order and postal
savings departments. This increase
has been remarkable because of the
European war which has done away
with most of the foreign money order
business and has caused a falling of
in the amount of postage collected on
foreign mail.
Additional Clerks and Carriers.
Additional clerks and carriers have
been appointed to insure the prompt
handling and delivery of mail during
the rush seasons. Two sub stations
were restablished at the Falls and
Bean Hill for the convenience of the
residents of these neighborhoods-
the rural routes with the result that
many of the patrons receive their mail
much earlier in the day than former
ly.
The postofffce and treasury depart
ments have granted all of POstmas-
ter Murphy's acquisitions for the inn
provement of the postal service and
the government property. About $4,000
has been expended for much needed
repairs on the postoffice and Postmas-
ter Murphy is recommending other
improvements to facilitate the work of
the employees. As soon as he took
charge OF affairs. the new postmaster
made Il clear that the interior sur
rounding 1t must be kept in good con-
dition and he has continued to give
| the matter personal supervision.
| Postmaster Murphy and all the en-
| ployees seem to be a very happy fam
| lily and most DESTROYS of serving the
! public in a satisfactory manner.

EAST Side WORK
NEARS COMPLETION

The rebuilding of four mile stretch
of main highway on the East Side is
nearing completion. In 1910 and 1911
the road was surfaced with waterbound
macadam, which had begun to disinte-
crate. Following a scarrifying ma.
chine, made especially for the work.
a layer of gravel hauled from pits on
the West Side has been applied and
rolled. Where completed the new road
is in the best of condition, and other
valley highways will probably be like
wise improved.
Work on the highway has been rushed
by the county court. in order that the
East Side road might be ready for

HuckleberrieS Sell For War Prices

In former years Indians, who have
harvested the luscious fruit in the Lost
Lake district, have sold huckleberries
in the local market for rs cents per
gallon. The price has leaped this year
to 81 per gallon, and no dickering has
succeeded in bringing the Redmen to
better terms.
1t is true that the huckleberry crop
in local territory is short. but this is
not the reason advanced by the Indians
for the increased valuations.
"War make um berries bring more
money!" explained a buck recently
when selling basket of the fruit to
Z. A. Franz.
Mr.. Franz paid the price without a
murmur. for only the week before the
selfsame Indian visited Mr.. Franz
store to buy some equipment. The
price had advanced materially over
that charged for the same material a
year ago. On protests from the Indian
Mr.. Franz explained that the great
European war had caused the increased
price. Lo paid the price demanded.
He was silent, but as subsequent events
have proven, he was thinking.

FIREMEN PRAISE
CORVALLIS FOLK

With unstinted praise for the citi.
zens of Corvallis and with a renewed
interest in their work Of protecting
the property Of Hood River, the team
of the Volunteer fire department re-
turned home by automobile over the
Highway last week.
''It was a great meet" declares
Chief Morgan, .'and one the lessons of
which We Hood River boys will not
soon forget. The Corvallis firemen
and the citizens of that town treated
US royalty. We were met at Albany
and escorted into the college town.
"At meeting of state fire chiefs
and the officers Of the tournament as
sociation, it was decided to change the
name of the organization to the Oregon
State Fireman's Tournament Associa-
tion instead of the Willamette Valley
Association. Plans we're outlined for
a statewide campaign of education for
be prevention of fires. Within the
next two weeks we expect the follow
ing men here to deliver lectures on
fire prevention: A. G. Long. president
of the new association; Jay Stevens,
of the Portland Fire Bureau, and Bat
talon Chief Holden, of Portland. II
possible Chief Dowell. of the Portland
fire department. will be present. Films
of moving pictures. showing methods
of fire prevention, will be shown"
The local boys participated in THE
Labor Day parade in Corvallis and
later they were at banquet rendered
the visiting firemen. Over 375 men
we're present at the banquet. Nine
departments we're present at the tourn-
ament. Next years tournament will
be held at McMinnville.
81 was told by Chief Graham, of
Corvallis, that our boys will certainly
be hard to catch by next year." says
Mr.. Morgan. "and you must consider
that they did mighty we'll this year,
when it is taken into consideration that
the wet test, breaking the worlds rec
ord, as won by the Corvallis depart
ment, was won by an organization the
membership of which reaches 125
