vance. the fire had licked l6-milc
pathway through the forest to within
five miles Of the city limits.
z0o Fighters Lost
Somewhere to the east Of the fire
line in what apparently had been q
raging inferno Sunday night when q
strong wind whipped it into fury, the
200 fire fighters. headed by r. H.
9herrard, supervisor OF the Mount
Hood national forest, were either
fighting new blazes or beating their
way back to civilization. Forest trails
were blocked by fallen, smouldering
trees. Roads which penetrated this
district were streWn with ashes an
inch deep In places and by great trees
which went down under the fury of
the flames.
Special couricrs. sent out from the

Of the party. Officials said they be-

packed their household effects into
trucks or set them in yards In antic-

MODEL FORD

Statistics Show Aver d q {
Life Was Seven Years,
Patteson Declares

The Model T. Ford, which gave
such faithful service for SO many
years. is still a good car" says
Drew Patteson OF the Patteson
Motor Co. Brownsville.
Millions Of these Model T. Fords
are still in active use in every Sec
ton Of the country. They were made
so simply and strongly. of such good
materials, that many Of them can be
driven for two. three and ever five
more years with reasonable care and
proper requirements. Statistics shcw
that the average life of the Model
T. is seven years.
when the announcement was
made some time ago that the Ford
Motor Company was introducing the
new Model A Ford. it vas also an
nounced that the manufacture OF
replacement parts for the Model I
car would not stop.
Mr.. Ford said at that time that
the production of Model r parts
would continue as long as there Is a
SillElc MDQCl A IGA VII tAC AS1ASr
He has said repeatedly that he does
not intend to permit the Model. II
To become obsolete for lack Of re-
placement parts Today a consider
able section of the Ford plant IL still
given over to the making OF these
parts.
This Is the time OF the year, fol-
lowing winter lay-ups or winter
driving, when all owners or the
Model T Ford should have II care
fully examined. overhauled and put
into first class shape. "A very slight
expenditure for repairs and replace
ments now may obviate the neces-
sity for more costly repairs and re-
placements later on-and assure the
owner many additional thousands of
miles Of ~care-free driving.
"As you know. all labor Is charged
at a flat hour rate and the cost OF
genuine new parts is surprisingly
low because of the Ford policy Of
selling at a small margin Of profit"
