It was n statement ot which any newspaper might be proud. The pur poses of the paper as there set forth were those that any newspaper might make Its own. We now have atiothcr newspaper creed. This Is from tlio Republican of Stanley, Wisconsin. It appeared on the occasion ot the twenty-fifth anniversary of tho paper and we present It as another state ment of the .high purpose to which most of the country newspapers of tho nation aspire. "Wo commit The Republican to the task of doing for another 'gener ation the same service which It did for the past generation. The task ot keeping the men of the community united and keeping their vision clear. We commit it to .the task ot discour aging petty factionalism. Individual selfishness and petty Jealousies all with the purpose of making every thing and everybody subservient to the one big Idea. We commit Tho Re publican to the task of helping men and women to see that what builds up the community, enriches It in community resources and adds to the individual wealth of every person In the community; and that most of the wreckage along the shores ot time Is the result of selfish methods to gain an undue advantage. There can be no community progress ex cept with a united front. What pro gress Stanley has made has been due to the unanimity with which Stanley men have worked to achieve .a definite purpose. The petty bicker ings and factionalism and jealousies which have kept other towns at a standstill have .been conspicuous by their absence here. "It takes men to build a town. It requires leadership and brains and Industry. The Republican has never hesitated to exalt, men who were worthy .of Jt and to give them credit for their achievements. It has never hesitated to Ignore and help the com munity to forget men who were trou blemakers and who sought to create strife and factionalism. This will con tlnue to be its policy. Service has been our watchword. It there be men and women in ' this community fit to serve, it will 'be our greatest op portunity to assist them to serve as Jt has ever,been." CHILDREN'S BOOK WEEK This Is Children's book week by designation of someone back east. lie may be trying to stimulate the sale ot children's books, or he may Jbe sincerely interested In the subject and in this manner hoping to direct attention to this very Important sub ject. Even though the first is the real reason Interest Is bound to be created so that the second is served and we are glad to add any word TEbe Central regon JBmik i D. E. HUNTER,. President CAKLETO.V B.

STEPHENS, Cashier BEND, OREGON The Vast Difference In . the methods of banking in tlio' year iO'M and Uiose of nowadays is one of the many thing to bo thank ful' for this Thanksgiving Day. Without tho splendid convenience and assistance of tho modern bank, our forefathers were compelled to utilize any hiding place that would secrete tliclr savings, i Now you can come to this bank anil place yonr Hav ings in its care with perfect assurance of safety. 'The convenience of n checking account Is ut your command. Money placed in havings earns 4 per cent interest. 1 A' safety deposit box may ho had, at a very small ex pcniOi uhcre yonr valuables will be safe from theft or tire. May we suggest that on Thanksgiving Day earh ono of lis think ouly of the things wo have to bo tliunklul for.

DESCHUTES COUNTY (Portland Telegram) In some respects Deschutes coun ty is one ot the most attractive soc' Hons of Oregon. Located as It Is con trally In tho state, on tho east of tho Cascades It combines timber and prairie, mountains and plains, a light rainfall but an inexhaustible supply ot water for Irrigation and power. It is now a region ot comparative ly little development, and yet it has 60,000 acres of land under Irrigation and plow and 100,000 moro acres for which water can be provided with comparatively small expense. There are now 15,000 acres under tho ditch but not cultivated, that can be had at from $45 to $100 an acre, Hydro-electric power enough has ulj ready been developed In tho county to give sufficient light, heat and pow er to the entire population. Hardly' a county In the state can give tho tourist so much of natural attraction as can this county. Sltua' ttd about halt way between Mounf Jefferson and Crater Lake, there are mountain heights, canyons, caves and great timber in quantity and a wealth of lakes. In lakes this county Is en dowed quite beyond most other parts of the state. This county's population Is made up chiefly of more than ordinarily progressive people. Bend, its metro polis. It the' leading city of east cen tral Oregon; a good railway connects It with the world east and west of the mountains. Better highways are tlte first need of this region, and these are being developed. And at ways, first and last, there Is a need of more settlers. This county seems to offer to the homeseeker ono ot the finest opportunities in the West KEEP IT GOING Today, with new officers elected, the Bend Commercial club starts on its second year of activity slnco re organization. In spite of a general business depression that has resulted in a reduction in the income ot the club It has functioned through the past year In a successful manner and has much to Its credit In the way of accomplishment. In part these re sults are due to the Impetus given committee work by the feeling that behind the committee was an Inter regon an E. P.

In view of tho pnst year's success tharo can bo no nrgumout against the import aiico of continuing tho work.

AWNINGS Why Is It necessary to wait until someone has hurt himself soveroly before changing n condition that threatens danger so long as It exists? Tho awnings that hang ovor tho side walks In tho business section nro al most every ono too low to permit a person of ordinary height to pass without bending to save his lint from being knocked oft and of Into oven tho Iron frames on which tho awn ings nro hung huvo been allowed, In sume cases, to drop and mako n real obstruction over tho walk. Moro than one pedestrian has run Into these awning frames and at least one man was severely Injured Satur day night on Wall street. Tho owners of tho buildings, apparently, aro not Interested to Improve such condi tions ot their own volition and the only thing left to do is for tlio coun cil to enforce tho ordinance that, will bring about a removal ot thesa dan gerous obstructions. Surely a person walking along the streot ought not to bo called on to guard himself against such daugcrs. As things are today, howovqr,.) .be must do so. Will tho council mako this unnnecessary? A. BOY'S THANKSGIVING DINNER An eight-year edd lad was asked to write what ho considered a good din ner blll-of-faro for Thanksgiving, und here It Is "First Corse Mlnco pie.

Oklahoma Farmer Stockman Now that the railroads aro reduc ing freight rates on hay out of Con tral Oregon points one cannot help asking why the action was not taken when first requested a year ago. At that time. It will be remembered, all the officials said that the change was Impossible and they had perfectly good reasons why. Tho Oregonlan says It Is now'loo late to debate the question of the 1925 exposition tax.and that the only thing to do Is to vote it. May be so but why, we wonder, did not tho Ore gonlan consider the question when there was time? Usually It does not allow Itself to be pushed Into a thing, Judging from the Portland actlc. Ity Portland does not need the stato help for her fair, so here Is wishing her further success In all her under takings so long as she does not usk for taxation of tho cow country.

In addition to this, the Portland reporter teamed that efforts aro being liuulo to secure a woolen mill and a pulp mill for Bend, utilizing the Jurk pine forests of Central Oregon for the latter In dustry.

Many tourists travel aver this highway, but they aro nearly alt at tempting to break 'speed records. Al though tho scenery along the high way Is beautiful, the larger percent age of tourists full to find ,our most wonderful attractions. They do not go out to the lakes and to our moun tain streams abounding In trout. "Within a few miles of tho main highway on good forest roads thoro arc East lake, Elk lake, Crescent tako, Odcll lake, tho Ice caves, the Deschutes and Metollun and othor rivers whero good fishing may be enjoyed. Then, too, tho scenery Is more beautiful back from tho main highway, "Last week I was at East lake and two of us caught' twenty-two trout within an hour that measured up to the weight limit allowed by law. "We havo 300 days of sunshine each year In Bend, but It never be comes so warm as to bo uncomfort able. During tho six months I have resided thero I did not carry an urn brella until tan. other day.
