BRINGS OVATI0NS

City and valley residents who crowd
ed the high school auditorium Saturday
night declared the annual operetta,
given under directions of Mrs. C. H.
Henney, by the combined boys and
girls glee clubs of the school, the
most perfectly performed and enter
tanning school entertainment ever held
here. The rendition of the young men
and women won them a hearty ovation,
The show held stars plenty, but
Paul Reed, as an Englshman, three
sailors, Joshua Pierson, Rufus Sumner
and Maurice Kinsey and the three Fol-
lies girls, Misses Marian Butler, Pru-
dence Spight and Frances Fuller, all
were exceptionally good. Misses Mary
beth Blagg and Gertrude Horne and
Franklyn Davenport. singing leading
parts, were encored.
The entire production was unsually
elaborate for high scohol operetta.
The boys and girls displayed the in
tense training of several weeks. The
stage might have been that Of a metro

yield of orchards but from the market.
| ing outlook. Mr.. Nunamaker, who is
a veteran director of the Apple Grow
ers Association, after a tour of inspec-
tion of the valley, has begun agitation
for additional warehouse and cold
storage space.
"Our greatest need, in view of the
1921 crop, which, in my opinion will
be considerably in excess of the z, 600.
600 box crop of 1919, is for more faeil.
tiles for handling the apples. We
should begin at once to erect big cold
storage plant, in order that our big
crop of Spitzenburgs can be harvested
and stored at once. Otherwise we will
have this high quality of fruit reach
ing the consumer in poor condition.
Mr.. Nunamaker believes the valley S
1921 apple crop will touch the $500 600
box point. He also predicts record
yield of pears.
I'VE will have three boxes of pears
where we harvested one last year, I"
says Mr.. Nunamaker. 'and the ton
mage will go close to 400 carloads.
The cherry crop has been cut short to
some extent, as weather conditions
while the fruit was in bloom prevented
proper polarization of the lower
branches. Top branches will be loaded.
The Spitzenburg crop of the Hood
River valley this season is going to be
the largest we ever raised.
Mr.. Nunamaker says fruit raisers
ought to talk with farming interests of
other sections of the country in order
to grow optimistic. He declares North
western apple districts in comparative
ly good financial circumstances.
81 hear at home much disappont-
ment over 1920 prices for apples. says
Mr.. Nunamaker. "In fact, it seems
to me, we ought to be as happy as a
woodchuck in cherry tree. Cotton,
corn, grain, livestock and wool inter-
ests are SO much worse off than we
are, that our condition is rosy. At no
time during the war period were we of
the fruit sections helped. The war all
the time had depressing effect. In
the other agricultural sections. prices
of products scared so high that 1T
boosted values out of sight. The per-
iod of dellation has struck the other
agricultural districts two ways. But
we were not invited to the party. and
as result we haven't the headache of
the morning after.
''ln face of the record tonnage of
the eastern fruit sections last year, it
is remarkable to me that we got any
reasonable prices for our apples. With
the worst frost damage of this year
thinning the eastern and middle west
ern crop to almost negligible quanti-
ties, | believe we face a wonderful
market year.
On the way north by automobile Mr..
and his wife toured through
the principal fruit districts of the
south. He says he found that recent
frost damage reported from there not
general. Some local districts, how
ever, he declares lost heavily. The
higher attitudes of southern California, |
where apples are grown, were badly !
bitten by the frost. Mr.. Nunamaker

 T0 RESCUE LOST GOLD
S1O,O00,O0O Cargo of lII-Fated Steamer LaurentiC on Bed
 of the Ocean.

Another attempt is to be made this summer by the admiralty to recover the remainder of the bullion lost when the armed liner Laurentic was miped and sunk off the north coast of Ire land in 1917.
 The salvage vessel Racer, together with the Canadian drifter No. l, will undertake the salvage work for the fourth summer.
 . The Laurentic went down in % fathOms Q20 feet) of water four miles off the coast of Donegal, carry ing gold bars to the value of between S1O,OOO.OO0 and $15OOO,O00.
 Four years of pounding by Atlantic gales have reduced the wreck to a shapeless mass and each pear the work has been more difficult.t Last summer the divers found that about 25O tons of hull and deckplates had settled on the strongroom. where the gold was stored, breaking 1t in. The result was that only about S25,00O was recovered, compared with S1 ,250,000 the previous year.
 After the winter storms the divers expect to find the wFeckage covered with gravel and silt, which has to be cleared away with pumps. Then the steel plates and girders must be cut away.
 The Racer Is now equipped, in ad- dition to every possible contrivance for aiding divers, with "recOmpres- sion chamber" A diver can reach the bottom In half a minute, but after prolonged immersion at 20 fathoms below the surface half an hour has to be allowed for raising him because, If brought up too quickly, he is likely to collapse.
 The great pressure at 90 fathoms saturates the system with nitrogen gas, but in the recompression cham Der the nitrogen can be eliminated gradually.

Owners Should
Know Battery
States Barton

"Talk to the average motorist
about carburetor adjustments, cy-
Under synchronism, gear shaft all
ignments, or any simple little mat
ter like that" remarked II. D..
Barton, manager OF the local 'Ex-
ide services tation, "and he's right
with you on every count. Ask him
to explain to you the action OF
his storage battery and he'll usu-
ally go down to the end OF the
class without struggle.
"And yet there is no real reason
for this. Any chap who can figure
out the elemental mechanics Of an
automobile possesses plenty Of in
telligence with which to dope out
his battery. And he ought to do ii.
Experience proves that the more a
motorist knows about the internal
arrangements of his car. the better
care he is going to take Of them
any my personal opinion is that
many good starting and lighting
battery is ruined just because the
owner doesn't know the few sim
pie principles of its action. I'm
not much OF a lecturer. but IL my
object, just ps II is that of every
other Exide' service man the coun
try round, to help my customers to
get the absolute best out OF their
batteries; and I'm willing 10 sit
down any time aud give them an
enlightening little discourse on the
whats and why's Of storage battery
theory and practice. I'm there to
bet the average life OF the aver
age battery in these parts would
be considerably heightened IL they
absorbed my advice and that my
sob would be more cheerful one
For even soh usky a product as
the 'Exide' Is a good deal like the
garden variety of husgand-- it's
much better live with when it's
properly understood"

Goodyears
Cut Prices
For Tires
Reduction Of From IL
to 20 Percent On All
Sizes Announced and
In Force

An announcement that will be
welcomed by an army Of 100000
western car owners is that Of the
Goodyear Tire and Rubber com
pany of California, Los Angeles,
concerning lower tire prices.
The reduction in prices applies
to both fabric and cord tires and
tubes, now in effect and ranges
from 111s to 20 percent.
Goodyear tire and tube prices
are now back TO the 1913 level, "
says A. r. Osterloh, yice-president
and general manager. But tire
user today is getting fully twice
as much service from a tire as he
obtained eight years ago for the
same money.
Eight years ago tires that
would run 5000 miles were scarce,
but now a 10,000-mile perform
ance excite little comment. So
based on mileage our tires cost
only half as much as they did in
1919.
"Since that time wonderful
changes have been made in tires,
in fact few commodities have kept
pace with tires in improvements.
I'VE are pledging our custom
ers that Goodyear quality is now
greater than ever before and on
that basis are asking our dealers
to go after business.
Having just finished the best
month of our present fiscal year
with an April business of 1,200,-1
600, we are now squared away for
even better business during the
coming summer months.
Our dealers assure us that our
policies and product are right and
by employing the same vigorous
sales efforts that have brought our
increasing volume of trade, we an
ticipate no difficulty in maintain
ing our leadership In the west.
1--WE have now increased our
working force to 1850 persons
and have reached a production Of
$500 tires and 2,300 tubes each
day"
