HONOR FOR VOLUNTEERS

While next Wednesday, as a fit
ting celebration of the 24lst ami
versary of the signing Of the Dec
laration of Independence, will be
dedicated to all of our defenders
and prospective defenders of liber-
ty, members of our National Guard
organizations, the Regular Army
and the 100000 American young
men subject to draft under the con-
scription act, it is proposed by men
of Twelfth Company, Coast Artil-
lery Corps, to pay an especial trib-
ute to the boys of Hood River
county who have volunteered for
the service, and who are already in
training. They alone of all our SOL
diers and prospective soldiers will
be absent Wednesday.
One of the days speakers, with
fitting words, will call attention to
the patriotic service and sacrifice
for country of the volunteers, and
a roll of their names will be read.
As it is desired that this list be
complete, all correspondents of the
Glacier, families whose members
have volunteered and citizens in
general are asked to supply the
Glacier with list of the county's
volunteers, no matter where or in
what branch of service enlisted.
Do not wait second, but call at
once and give the names of all vol
unteers you may now. From 8
until II and from 2 until 5 each
day, call the Glacier office. Tel.
1921. During other hours tele-
phone your information to No.

VALLEY READY
TO CELEBRATE
ELABORATE PLANS ARE OUTLINED
Artillerymen and Red Cross will Benefit
From Proceeds Of the Days
Entertainments

Never in the history of Hood River
have such elaborate preparations been
made for the celebration of Independ-
ence Day, and next Wednesday, with
out doubt, the record crowd from the
capital of the Apple Valley will jour-
ney here to see the parade, in which
the members of Twelfth Company,
who are so soon to leave to join the
colors, Grand Army men, Relief Corps
women, Honor Guard girls, fraternal
organizations and the motor vehicles
of scores of citizens will take part.
And next Wednesday the dimes pour.
| ing into the Golfers of concessionaires
will grow to dollars, for the Red Cross
need is great, and then one-half of the
fund goes toward forming the where
withall for buying food for Hood Riv-
er's boys. No guard organization goes
without a mess fund, in order that the
men will have something more than
the coarse but substantial staples the
government provides. The local artil-
lerymen have never asked Hood River
citizens for any financial support and
they justly expect the proceeds of the
Fourth to be swelled to gratifying pro-
| portions.
| Music will not be lacking, for a.16-
piece band has been procured from
The Dalles, which neighboring town
will also send many of its residents.
Scores will come from other mid Co
lumbia cities.
The announcement of prizes has
been made as follows:

The Red Cross women are sending
out a call to all their members to

SPEEDING Is NO
LONGER NOTED

While the toll of his arrests for the
first two days mounted to an even doz-
en- drivers of automobiles and motor
cycles, the activities of H. M. Nutter,
a special motorcycle policeman, of
Portland, have resulted in an apprecia-
BILE falling off in violations Of motor
traffic ordinances, and Sunday, after
having been busy here since Wednes-
day, the day passed without an arrest.
As usual thing Sunday is the worst
day for speeders. The net returns to
the city for fines of ordinance violators
reached 500.
Mr.. Nutter was secured by the city
because of his number of years of ex-
perince as a motorcycle officer and be-
cause of the strong recommendations
he was able to furnish. His arrests
formed but small proportion of the
number he warned. 1t is estimated
that at least 200 drivers received warn
ings, when their law violations were
of mild nature.
1t is announced by the city council
that a special speed officer will be
placed on duty here at frequent inter.
walls throughout the summer.

His body, severed in twain, was found
Sunday morning in the freight yards
at crossing within a few hundred
feet of where for the last dozen years
George and several other Indian fami.
lies have lived.
News of the old mans death spread
with rapidity and hundreds of his white
friends followed the hearse to the
Knights of Pythias cemetery, where at
six o'clock Sunday evening, according
to the old mans wish, the service was
conducted by his white friends, Rev.
Longbrake, pastor of Asbury Method
list church, officiating.
Among those at the graveside were
E. L. Smith, whose friendship for the
old Indian has lasted for Al years, and
Mrs. Alma Howe, of the Cottage Farm
resort, who for 25 years has been
Georges closest friend and advisor.
When the simple service was ended
the body of the patriarch was deposit.
ed in its last resting place in a little
plot of ground that George purchased
several years ago on advice of Mrs.
Howe. The little burial plot was
marked by its neatness, for George
summer in and summer out had visited
the place and kept it free from weeds.
Today it is heaped with flowers of his
white friends, who will see that it is
kept green and not forgotten.
Accompanying the local mourners
were several Indians here from the
Warm Springs reservation to engage
in the strawberry harvest. They were
garbed in the bright colors that strike
an appeal to their primitive natures,
and their copper hued faces were
streaked with mourning paints.
George Shinidink Chinadere is the
full name of the departed relic Of
early days when the redskin warrior
hunted at will over the ranges of the
Cascades or fished for the hordes OF
salmon that swarmed in the Columbis
and its tributaries. But he was com
monty known as Indian George. Be
cause of his accurate predictions OF
the heavy snowstorm of the winter Of
1856, the old man had won reputt
throughout the Northwest as a weather
prophet. His last words of prophecy
were uttered Saturday afternoon,
when the Glacier man, greeting him al
he returned down the railroad track:
from his customary daily visit to the
city and asking what he thought of the
high water of the Columbia, George
replied, Maybe so water come some
more before July come"
Lingering to talk, for George dearly
loved friendly conversation, the ole
man pointed to burlap bag on hi
back and said:
Man give George COW bone. HI

and papooses all gone to pick straw

JUDGE BRADSHAW'S
DEATH WAS SUDDEN

No news has ever brought crater
shock or resulted in so profound and
universal expression of grief as that
telling of the sudden death in Portland
last Wednesday of Judge W. L. Brad
shaw, of The Dalles, who for the past
quarter of century has sat on the
benches of the local district circuit
court.
al have never had any news to bring
me greater grief" said District At
torney Derby. "Not only do | con-
slider that the death of Judge Brad
shaw has brought great loss to the
county and the state, but | feel his
loss personally. With his passing
feel that | have lost one of the best

man.
A bow of crepe was placed on the
back of the chair he used when holding
court here and the flag over the court
house was at half mast last Friday
afternoon for Judge Bradshaw. A
large delegation, composed of mem.
bers of the bar, county officials and
knights of Pythias, left on the noon
train for The Dalles to attend the
| funeral.
The business houses of The Dalles
without exception were closed for the
funeral, which was held in the court.

was paid from all points of the North

get lonely"
The correct age of Indian George is
not known. From his talk it is esti-
mated that he has passed the 80 year
mark. He was said to have been born
at an Indian village just west of Hood
River.
The theory is advanced that Indian
George was crawling under freight
cars when the train began to move.
Other Indians of the colony of which
George was a member say that the old
man had been warned repeatedly of
the danger of such a practice. The
position in which the remains wer e
found lead to correctness of the theory.
Brief talks were given at the grave
side by Mr.. Smith and Rev. Frank
Spaulding, the first Methodist minister
of the community. A poem written
by S. E. Bartmess was read.

INFORMATION OF
|. FIRE APPARATUS
POPULAR feature

While so many complimentary
things are being said about the won
derful increase in production Of auto
mobiles and motor trucks, and their
adaptation to numerous fields OF
human need and endeavor, it should
not be overlooked that the motoriZa-
ton OF fire fighting apparatus has
reached a very high development
More than 80 motor car manu-
facturers are now giving special at
tention to the building of motor-driven
fire apparatus. that our homes, bust
ness places, factories and public in
stitutions may be protected from the
dangers and rayages of fire. in so far
as the human and mechanical ele-
ments may be employed to preserve
them. 49,.
Throughout the entire country the
motorization of fire apparatus is
rapidly taking place. Fewer and
fewer firemen now take pleasure in
exhibiting to you their shapely. we'll
groomed and spirited steeds with inn
maculately polished harness and metal
fastenings. Rather do they now point
with glowing pride TO the latest type
of motor-driven fire fighting machine.
and tell you of its wonderful speed
and efficiency
With this great development in fire
apparatus has naturally been associ-
ated the matter of perfecting specially
designed tires to permit speed and yet
prevent, as much as possible. the wear
and tear on the mechanism of the
truck. To this problem the Goodyear
Tire & Rubber Company, Akron, Ohio,
has for years given special attention.
Our position in this field" states
F. II. Sawyer, manager of the Good
year fire truck tire department, is
best shown in the statement that 1884
cities in the United States and Can
ada are now using Goodyear tires on
their motorized apparatus. During the
year that has just passed 329 new
cities in these two countries bought
equipment mounted on GoudyearS. A
careful check of the tire equipment
of all the pieces OF apparatus manu-
featured during 1916 shows that IS
per cent of them left the factories on
Goodyear tires.
Tires for fire apparatus have
reached a degree of perfection equal
to that of tires for pleasure cars. But
for this improvement in tires, motor
lied fire apparatus would not have
attained its present nigh efficiency.
The perfection of tires has Kept pace
with that of the apparatus itself.
"Only when you stop to consider
that the value of motorized fire equip
ment in the United States is placed
at nearly $100,0O0,000, do you get q
glimpse of the wonderful opportuni-
ties which are in store. Our pros
meets for a big business this year are
sencouraging-in fact the whole future
of the industry is very bright"

Unanimously died.

For the engine was beneath,
And crawled around in an oily swound
Upon the grimy heath

And put ii back full well,
And did that car then up and run?
