ROSEBURG, Ore, Feb. ia real
"city father" is DR.. E. V. Hoover,
Roseburg. He can claim the title
for having been mayor of the city
four times, but more important to
him is the fact that in 38 years

rocked him In her arms, grooming a
cradle song and wondering why on
earth she ever came OF such a trip
With a six-month-old baby. At last.
worn out with crying he fell asleep.
AS the teams drew near the fort the
Siren awoke, rested but hungrier than
ever. When passing the barracks, his
mother said in after years, his cries
brought the soldiers out to see If the
Sioux were attacking. In front Of Nc
knlghtS store the wagons stopped. Bot
ties were more or less taboo even
around the Frontier fort but at last a
sweet oil bottle was found and clean
ed so it was disable. When it was filled
with warm milk and the Siren had the
nipple in his mouth, he gave his moth
er a look that seemed to say, See what
persistence does"
Its 20 degrees below zero right now
by the government thermometer" said
the SIRENS father as he crawled into
the wagon and the teams started on.
A mile or more from the fort, in the
shelter of a cottonwood grove and a
patch Of willows, the halt for the night
was made. The keen north wind was
still blowing but, in the scant shelter
OF the leafleSS trees and brush, it SEEM
ed a little less severe than on the open
prairie.
The hour was late and preparations
for the night were hurried. A fire soon
blazed a little distance from a big down
cottonwood. Brush was leaned over the
log to make a wind break and around
the fire in its lee the women and chill
dren collected to get warm while the
men cared for the horses, set up tents
and gathered more firewood. Supper
was a cold meal, even with hot biscuits,
coffee and fried grouse. All were shiv-
ering and stood by the fire, turning
first n side and then the other to its
warmth as they ate. The Siren seemed
comfortable for a little while. He ap-
peared to be listening to the mourn
full howl of a gray wolf greeting the
rising moon from the benches north Of
the river. Then a Canada lynx, search
ing for c~ottontail rabbits along the
river, uttered a few screeches. This vas
too much. The Sirens little heart leap
ed with envy. He pitched in and for
hours made everyone miserable with
his crying.

Everyone was asleep early. Toward
morning a cold northeast wind ratified
the frozen tops Of the cottonwoods.
When daylight came a storm was on.
Snow was falling and drifting along the
ridge Of the road.
All the forenoon the horses toiled
through drifts against the storm. In
teriors of the wagons were cold and
the men often got out and walked to
keep warm. Toward noOn a halt was
made on a little stream coming down
from the Bird Tail divide to Flat creek
at the old Wareham place. Horses were
watered and fed and again coffee was
made on the little stoves in the wagons.
Everyone got out for a few minutes to
timber up, but there was comfort for
one
The afternoons drive was colder than
that of the morning. The road led up
Flat creek and around Bird Tail DUN
tains across Benton flats to Bird Tail
creek and Eagle Rock stage station.
The Bird Tail divide cutoff was well
known and much used at the time but,
because of ice on it's northern slope, the
teamsters decided on the longer and
more exposed route. The storm had a
clear sweep ON the prairie and the oc-
cupants of the wagons suffered much
with cold, through wrapped with
blankets and buffalo robes.
IN the shelter of a sandstone ledge
on Birdtail creek, the nights camp
was made. Cottonwood logs brought
from the Dearborn furnished fuel for
a campfire by which everyone tried to
get warm. Sandstone slabs were heated
to put in the beds. There is nothing
much more comforting of a cold night
in bed in a tent or the prairie than a
hot ~rock-unless it Is two of them.
In the morning the storm was over,
but it was cold-bitter cold. The Bird
Tail mountains, Bird Tail rock, Crown
butte, and Square butte stood in bold
relief against a clear blue sky. In the
bright sunlight the air truly sparkled
with glinting frost crystals borne on the
north wind down over Crown butte and
it's adjacent hills.
Little time was spent by the morning
fire. The big stones used in the beds
the night before were reheated, wrap
ped in empty sacks and placed in the
wagons, where the travellers felt they

would do the most good. The younger
of the Sirens two brothers sat on his
The Sirens brothers also tied empty
sacks around their legs and feet as did
such of the men as were not extra well
clothed.
How the wheels sang as they crunch
ed through the cold snow. Young folks
today who have never heard steel tires
singing in frosty snow have missed
something. I wonder If it was the day
of which I write when I first learned
to like the music of winter wheels.
AS the teams toiled along drifted
roads the drivers wished they had not
attempted the trip. Walking beside
their horses and clapping their hands
for warmth, it seemed that the sun,
with a sundOg on either side, over
Square butte only made the air colder.
They had a~ggravating visions of warm
rooms and comfortable chairs left be-
hind.
Presently, on a windswept ridge above
the road, a band Of pronghorn antelope
was sighted watching the wagons. The
two hunters dropped from the wagons
and made their way up a ravine to
within rifle range of the herd. Smoke
from the rifles could barely be seen
against the background of frost and
snow, but the reports cracked sharply
through the cold, cold wind. The ami
mails bounded over the hilltop in head
long flight except three, which lay
stretched in the snow. These were
dressed hastily, dragged to the wagons
and slung alongside with the deer and
sheep. One of the men remarked that
all that was needed to complete the
assortment was an elk and a buffalo.
DISASTER came to the Siren about
the middle of the forenoon. His faith
er put the young mans bottle of milk
in hot water to warm and the bottle
cracked. 1t was the only bottle in the
outfit for this was a band Of teetotalers,
who regarded any bottle with suspicion.
The Siren was hungry. The teams
were out seven miles from Fort Shaw,
which meant nearly a three-hours drive
before another bottle could be had. A
long drawn, soulful blast expressed the
SIRENS disappointment when his dinner
was not forthcoming. He refused warm
milk from a cup or a spoon and cried
for an hour or more while his mother

UN TWO PARTS-PART TWO)

The start for the third days travel
was at daylight as usual. Sheltered un-
der the mOuntainside at the mouth Of
Wolf creek, the party scarcely felt the
wind during the night. 1t was heard,
however, roaring on the ridges and
the trees were seen to be swaying and
bending in the gusts on nearby noun
tain tops. The teamsters knew what
was ahead and one Of them remarked,
1T will be tough out ON the open hills"
About an eighth of a mile from the
nights campground the road led away
from the stream up what was known
as the Black grade, named because OF
the color of the decOmpOSed rock
through which 1t had been dug. AS the
teams assembled this grade and turn
ed toward the Kreuger ranch on Rock
creek, they found themselves in a fur
iOus gale laden with clouds of fine
drifting snow. The wind was from the
rear and whirled the snow in the lee
OF the wagons, casing the drivers and
wheel horses in white.
Travelling was hard and slow, for the
road was drifted deeply. On the east
side Of n hill the men all turned out
with ShOvelS and opened a way through
q deep drift for the laundering horses
and creaking wagons. One cOulee was
drifted full and the roadway had to be
cleared before the drivers could see the
bridge on which to cross. No stop was
made at 20 except for a cold lunch,
with hot coffee made by shivering
women on the little stoves in the
wagons. The teamsters were pulling
straight through to the Dearborn and
shelter, a distance of II miles. where
they arrived late in the afternoon.
Camp that night was in a cotton
wood grove on the river bottom. AS eve
ming came ON the wind died down and
the sky became overcast with haze.
The situation for a comfortable camp
vas not good. However, a big cotton
wood was felled and then another
dropped on top and lengthwise of it.
Willow brush was leaned against these
and snow piled against it to hold 1t in
place. With this for a reflector and a
big fire OF dry logs in front of it, the
space between was fairly warm. In it
the usual evening meal was %preparded
and eaten.

On July 4th or weekend and vacation
trips, you'll want to drive far and get
there in a hurry. And you don't want
that nagging worry of 81 wonder if
this speed and heat will hurt anything
in my motor"
You can't always be sure when you
use plain mineral oils, for they have
little film strength and oils over-re6ned
by new cleansing processes have even
less. Moreover, as motor heat goes up,
these oils rapidly lose film strength.
Film strength is the load-carrying
ability of an oil, the quality that keeps
bearings and cylinders from wearing
out. Lack of film strength results in
costly damage.
You can drive without a worry when
you use Conoco Germ Processed Mo-
tor Oil! 1t has 2 to 4 times greater film
strength than any plain mineral oil.
Heat does not lessen this advantage

FLEEING BANDITS
One Shot, Companion Captured
Five Minutes After Memphis
Pay Roll Robbery.

MEMPHIS, Tenn, May 11.-A blaz-
ing shotgun halted an 80-mile-an-
hour attempt by two bandits to escape
today less than five minutes after they
had made a spectacular robbery of
$4,000 pay roll.
Police Officer j. J. Jeffries fired into
the fleeing bandit car, shattering the
drivers left arm. Police described the
wounded man as Felix G. Cutcher, a.,
former Missouri and Arkansas train
robber and paroled Federal convict.
AS Cutcher's arm was shot he lost
control and the machine leaped
curb. Aided by officers in a second
police car, Jeffries and Patrolman John
Lucchesi leaped out and the two
bandits surrendered. A third man,
who had aided them in the robbery
of the Anderson-Tully Co., lumber
manufacturers, had disappeared.
Cutcher's companion gave the name
Of Lawrence Barnes.
After questioning Barnes, police
took a third man, Odell Smith, %,
into custody. He denied knowledge
Of the robbery.
Lying on the sidewalk awaiting the
arrival of an ambulance, Cutcher
turned to patrolman and pleaded:
Shoot me between the eyes,"

We're not looking for jobs, we've

run such a program single handed; 1t

Day, signer of A. A. A. contracts in
three claSsiflcations, said he received
cash benefits during the past season
of s210 on the wheat program, $140
on the corn-hog program and $40 for
the cotton program.
Farmers from about IS States who
have received smaller and larger do
nations from the Government are
among those expected here during
the next few days. From Texas, the
leader said, will come a delegation of
about 575, the largest of any single
unit. Louisiana, despite Senator
Longs oft-expressed distaste for the
program of crop curtailment and de-
struction, will send a delegation Of
200 A. A. A. supporters. he said.
Many of them, en- route now, will
live on their Pullman cars while here,
Day said, leaving for the return trip
on Wednesday night. Expecting to
complete their more serious business
of patting the A. A. A. on the back
on Tuesday, the delegates will spend
Wednesday seeing the sights" Day
announced.
"We're Just country boys" he ex-
planned in a matter of fact tone, "and
it would be too bad to come such q
long way without seeing all the sights
in washington.
IT don't know any of the boys who
could afford to pay their own way
here" he continued. 1T just seems
that the farmers collected in the
school houses and passed the hat.
Ninety per cent Of them wanted to
help let the administration know
we're satisfied"
| Asked about the other 10 per cent,
he shrugged:
Some people wouldn't support any
thing. They cuss the President, the
secretary, the preacher and the Judge.
You can't kill them to get rid OF
them. I've learned just to live with
them and love them"
Vigorous denial was forthcoming
upon the question of Secretary Wal
lace or Administrator Davis inspiring
the meeting. Equally stout was his
expression of support for continuance
of the processing tax, equally defiant
his answer to the textile interests and
others who wish it lifted.
IF industry will take the tariff on

ing tax off," he said. We'll string

cision on the question.
Another development today was the
appointment of Horatio B. Hackett as
assistant to Public Works AdminiStra-
tor Ickes and the advancement Of
Angelo Clas to Hackett's former place
rs p. w. A. housing director.
Robert Fechner, director of the
Civilian Conservation Corps, ordered
the purchase of an additional $780,
600 in materials for expansion Of the
corps to 100000 by August l. In
cluded were Ats trucks and passen-
ger cars.
In connection with rural electrifi-
cation, officials said most projects
probably would result from the organ
ization of mutual companies by
farmers. They predicted "few, if
any," generating plants would be
built, because of the huge cost. Cooke
also has said the program would not
enter fields which private capital
could handle.
Non-Federal Jobs Speeded.
Walkers application routine indi-
Gated fastest action on Federal and
non-Federal projects which have
been stacked on the desk of Secretary
Ickes, already bearing Public Works
Administration approval. Next great
est speed seemed in store for projects
initiated by Hopkins Works Progress
Division.
Walker divided all applications into
four classes: Federal projects, nom
Federal projects, work-relief projects
and administrative expense projects.
Federal and non-Federal projects
already pending before P. w. A. need
not be resubmitted, but will 60 direct
to the Applications Division. They
then will be returned to the origi-
mating governmental departments for
review in connection with work-relief
objectiveS before being transferred by
Walker to the Allotment Board.
New Federal projects will be filed
directly with Walker by the variosS
Government agencies, be reviewed
and submitted simultaneously to the
Works Progress Division so Hopkins
can pass on the potential employ
ment. Thereafter it passes from the
Applications Division to the Allot-
ment Board.
New non-Federal projects will be
submitted to State P. w. A. directors
by individuals, States, counties, cities
or other governmental agencies. P
w. A. will prepare the actual apph-
cations and again Walker will trans
init copies to Hopkins =or a check on
the work potentialities.
In addition, work-relief projects
will be initiated by the Pro re IS Di-
vision in localities where the relief
situation is such as to deman small
useful projects to provide maximum
of direct employment" Such prof.
ects will include those recommended
either to State relief officers or to
Washington by States, counties,
municipalities and other political di-
visions. These will be reviewed only
by the Budget Bureau before going
to the Allotment Board.
