Toroush the columns of the Rose burg News-Review you can talk daily with over seventeen thousand people, all of whom live in Douglas county. If you believe in letting the public know you have tbe goods and are af ter lis business, ifcure is no rarer or better way lo get In touch with buyers of merchandise than by "bitrtruT her up" through these columns. Every candidate has a feeling that he is going "over the top" sometime In May about tho 21t and he probably will. But the heavy bar rage from the rear ranks may get him. Motion picture shows will never be perfect until they elimlua'.o the noisy gum-chewers, the women who read the titles out loud, and the turtle-doves cooing In the dark corners.

Government rloihlng new pretty well sold out, but a lot more of tho type worn in federal Jails is going to b0 needed by the profiteers. "Rest rooms" now provided In many places, but a lot of people con sider the place where they are em ployed was created for that purpose. We've been In lots of small towns that supported brass bauds and we've been In towns that had tried to and failed, says the Marshfleld Itecord. And we have Invariably noticed that the town with the band Is the one In which a great spirit ot co-oporatlon exists, and where every thing In the way of business and so cial lite moves along more pleasant ly. Next to a good dally paper and good schools there Is no better ad vertisement for the small town than a good band. By that we mean one In Whlrh thn ltlvAna n ra Inlavulul to the point that they not only boast of the band but they willingly con tribute a few dollars each year to Its support. For be It known that Lrass bands, like everything else worth anything, costs money to maintain. The men aro willing to sacrifice their time in meeting for' rehearsals, nnd who are glad to lend a hand In helping out such an or ganization, should not be expected also to dig down In their Jeans for "more money to buy Instruments and muBlc and pay a director. , News print paper Is now quoted at j 12ri cents f. o. b., carload lols, In: the east. Up to five years ago two I cents at the mills In the oast was considered a good price. This la one of the reasons why newspapers are consolidating In some Instances, and going out of business In others. Eugene Guard. What every woman knows Is that lean year Is a Joke and that every year Is leap year. No eood woman finds It necessary lo advertise the fact nor to defend herself. Some people have the spring fever the year round. This must ue an awful drag on their systems. The best method to compete wllh the mail order bouse Is to advertise. :-: CITY NEWS :-: Close of HcgiU'utin All voters should bear In mind the fact that registration for the coming primary election will close at 5 o' clock p. m. on Tuesday, April 20.
