FOUR MORE MOTOR TRUCKS
FOR CRATER LAKE SERVICE

We've bought four motor trucks
which will be used along with sew
eral others to maintain a regular
service between Crater Lake and
Medford," said c. Y. Tengwald OF
the lake. 1T will probably be July
before the roads are passable to the
lake. We plan to have the trucks
fitted with cushion seats and easy
riding cOnveniences. One truck will
leave each end OF the run each day.
The distance from Medford to the
rim of the lake is SO miles. We will
have a bus leave Medford after the
Shasta limited arrives each morn
ing. The tourist season at the lake
is only three months. but we expect
each year to increase our patronage.
We are advertising the resort as
Americas greatest scenic wonder.

proved by those fortunate enough to
be able 10 see Crater lake"

stands silently aloof at the end Of
the lake watching rythmic pre-
cession OF humanity passing all in
the same direction.
Taftes original conception was In
spired by the poet Dolesons lines
Time goes you say, ah no
Alas! Time stays. We go.
Men and women are passing and
whatever we accomplish is deter
mined by preparation, ability and
energy.
BY preparation do not mean the
mere knowledge that one possesses,
but the philosophy OF life to which
he holds. The most of the men and
women who have failed have had no
formulated philosophy of life. A
second class has a hazy indefinite
of life but has never for
mulated 1t. When called upon to
meet situations outside of past ex-
periences they adopt hesitating or
course. A third class and
one in which hope all the members
Of the graduating class will classify,
early formulated a philosophy Of
life who familiarized themselves
through reading and study with
many of the conditions that might
n anyway affect their lives and de-
ermined on course OF procedure
lnder certain given conditions.

in petition presented to the city

The city council discussed for an
hour the adjustment OF water ratesl
and supply to the Southern Pacifici
and the Ashland Ice and
Storage company. The installing of
meters at the Southern Pacific waterl
stations and the usual city charge Of
two cents per 100 cubic feet was
agreed on. The city passed a motion
Harry Hosler, city watert
superintendent, to install meters at
!he Ashland Ice and Storage conf
pany and make a report OF the water
ised to the city council one month
rom the date of installation The
notion was made with the provision
hat the action would be agreeable

II increasing the city's revenue from
IS water supply by eliminating
waste were considered. The point
vas made that the water supply
harge in Ashland is less than any
