asts who want Henry Ford

thusiasts together in one fold.

Five Hats in One

Five different kinds Of snap-on
trimmings may be applied to the
same hat. Either small cloche
shape or large mushroom is good,
though the trimmings may be ap-
piled to any shape whatever
One trimming consists of three
wheel ornaments made of ribbon and
attached to a band of ribbon which
eliminates in semi-tailored bow
Snaps are fastened to this trimming
on the under side to correspond with
snaps that have been sewn to the
hat, so that all milady has to do is
to look over her array of ribbon
trimmings and choose the one that
matches her costume and snap it on
to her hat. When new costume is
worn she merely unsnaps this trim
ming, chooses another and applies 1t
In the same way.

New Town Building

Ryderwood, the new city being
built by the Long-Bell Lumber Com
pany in southern Lewis County, is
assuming shape. The townsite is To-
Gated near Vader, on Cougar Flat
surrounded by fir-clad mountains on
three sides, with three streams Of
cold mountain water running through
it. A stage runs twice daily be-
tween Ryderwood and Vader.
Ryderwood will be the center Of
logging operations for the Longview
mills, and it is expected it will have
population of about 5000. 1t is at
the end of the Longview, Portland &
Northern Railway. About 100 houses
of four and five rooms have been
constructed, and ground cleared for
the erection of more houses. Water
is taken from Campbell Creek, tenn
porary water mains and fire lines
having been installed. Construction
of the railroad between Ryderwood
and Longview is rapidly progressing.
Tests have been made in Washing
ton and elsewhere, showing conclu-
sively that hard-surfaced roads mean
thousands of dollars saving for the
owners of cars. There is no differ
ence in consumption of gasoline be-
tween asphalt and concrete roads;
but between these and gravel roads
lin good condition-the consumption
is from 10 to IS per cent greater.
The same holds good in economy of
tire and other automobile wear and
teal. Good roads hard-surfaced rap
idly pay for themselves.

State Supreme Court holds Cowlitz

OLD GRANARY BURYING
GROUND

Within the confines Of the older
(eastern) states of this Union there
are many ancient, quaint, and hallowed
burying grounds, most of which close
ly surround or adjoin a much-loved
chapel or meeting house. Among the
most interesting of these is that
precious plot of ground known as Old
Granary Burying Ground, near the
present business center in the city of
Boston.
The town granary once stood on this
site-hence this peculiar name. The
burying ground was established about
the year 1910.
Within this well-kept enclosure which
is surrounded by an imposing prOtec-
tive fence, lie the remains of three
signers of the Declaration of Indepen-
dence, nine governors, Peter Faneuil,
that public-spirited individual who
presented the city the famous hall
which bears his name; Paul Revere,
that patriot who, on April IS, 1775,
warned his country Of the marching
of the British troops towards Lexing-
ton and Concord, and other notables Of
their time.
Probably the most conspicuous head
stone that graces the shaded covering
Of the departed is that erected by Ben
jamin Franklin, the most important
literary man Of his day, in loving trib-
ute to the memory OF his father, JO-
siah, and his mother, Abiah.
An outstanding feature OF the plot
are a number Of almOst-R-century-Ol
elm trees which east their shadows
over this resting place.
The epitaphs on many Of the stones
which mark these ancient graves are
quaint, indeed, and peculiar In the
light Of present-day custom. An un
usual one reads:
Here lyeth ye body Of John Downing
aged about 50 yrs, decd April ye T. 1874
bargain with Christ for room below,
He grants a mansion in his upper Storte
Thus God gives more than we do ask o
know,
Instead Of grace uninterrupted glOr1e.
Another:
Here lies inferred the body Of Mr.. Thoma
Crawford, who departed this life,
Aug. I'D, 177S, Aged %.
Stop here mysfriend and cast an eye,
AS you are now, so once was IL
AS I am now, so you must be,
Prepare for death and follow me.

ointment.

UNEARTHING OF OLD
STAGE COACH SAFE
EXCITES CURIOSITY

LAVINA. June 28.-A reminder of
DAYS on the Musselshell river long be-
fore the advent of railroads and pos
siblv during the time Kid Currie and
other notorious highwaymen had their
rendezvous in this section was brought
to public attention recently when Ben
Plenger, residing on the northeast
bench. reported that some unidentified
person had dug up an oldtine stage
coach express safe on the site of the
old horse camp east of Lavlna. Plen-
GER brought the safe to town and
placed it on exhibition.
The safe evidently hAd been rltied
of its contents at the time it was bur
led. for a hole about II by B inches
had been chiseled in one side. That
it was buried many years ago is evil
denced by It's rusted condition.
| The only clue in connection with Che
| find so far obtained is that an aged
man was seen in the vicinity OF the
Jim Hart ranch for couple OF days
prior to the discovery of the safe. The
ancient stranger evidently had LOST
his landmarks with the changes OF
wears. but finally located the camp
Mr.. Plenger passed over the site toul
DAVIS before the discovery and noticed
no disturbance Of the soil, but on ms
last trip came upon the safe. slttlnt
beside a neatly dug hole in front O
where the door of an old cabin ono
stood.
i Mr.. Plenger and others believe tina
whoever dug up the safe had man
years ago placed valuables OF som
description in it, and at length re
turned to salvage his property, In
old strongbox has been the source Q
much speculation as to its past ms
, tory.
