Spots. How to Remove Easily.
Here's a chance, Miss Freckle-
face, to try a remedy for freckles

trifling.
Simply get an ounce of othine-

the double strength othine as this
is the prescription sold under

GARAGE CONCERNS
ARE CONSOLIDATED

A deal of record magnitude in the
local automobile business has been con
summated. The Gilbert & Dewitt Co.
and the Hood River Garage Co., have
projected a merger, consolidating all
departments of both concerns. The
new concern will be known as the Gil
bert & Dewitt Co. o. 7. Wedemeyer,
one of the incorporators of the Hood
River Garage Co., which recently
erected one Of the handsomest garage
buildings in the state has sold his stock
to the merger concern and will retire
to devote his time to private interests.
The repair shop formerly operated by
the Gilbert & Dewitt concern will be
closed, and all work will be taken care
of at the repair plant of the new con-
cern, which occupies the full l00x100
foot basement of the new building.
The spray, machinery and accessory
business, formerly feature of the
Gilbert & Dewitt Co., will be contin-
ued by the new company. Both build
ings, however, are to be kept going.
Preventing duplication of stock and
affording an all night service, the new
company will be one of the strongest
in the state and will furnish to tourists
service that will be fine advertise
ment for Hood River. The big concern
also handles a large number of cars,
and the purchaser is given the choice
of the best on the market. The per-
sonnel of the new garage concern is:
H. T. Dewitt. Clarence F. Gilbert,
Mark Cameron and Geo. Sheppard.
No liver, more aggressive aggrega-
tion of Hood River business men could
be found, and universal prediction of
success is heard, following the impor-
tant announcement.

Mrs. Cofin's Departure Regretted

1t is with deep regret that the pupils
and friends of Mrs. c. E. Coffin learn
of her near departure for Indianapolis,
where important business interests
have called Mr.. Coffin. Though her
class will feel her loss keenly, both as
teacher and friend, the work will be
ably carried on by Miss Edith Wood
cock, one of the advanced pupils of
Mrs. Thomas Carrick Burke, of Port
land, personally supervised by Mrs.
Burke herself. Mrs. Burke, as we'll as
Mrs. Coffin, has worked under the
great master, Leschetizky, so that the
method of both teachers is the same.
Mrs. Burke's public career, both in
Chicago, where she has played with
the Thomas orchestr, and in Portland,
place her in the foremost rank of ar
lists and teachers in the Northwest.
Miss Woodcock is young woman of
unusual ability and great earnestness
of purpose. Mrs. Burke's recommend
alton is sufficient proof of her merit.
Mrs. Wedemeyer, who has been
working with class of beginners un-
der Mrs. Cotfin's supervision, will also
discontinue her work in favor of Miss
Woodcock

members of the two societies were
present. The main portion of the time

instructive address by Mrs. VIM. Mum
roe on present day conditions in Porto
Rico and the scope of the missionary
work being done there. Mrs. Munroe is
an ardent student of missionary activi-
ties the world over, and is able to i'm
part her knowledge in most enter
tanning manner. A pleasant social
hour followed, closing with sumptu-
Gus ten cent tea served by Mrs. Blagg,
who is an artist in this line. The pro-
ceeds of. the tea were divided between
the two societies.
