Koseburg, Ore., IJecembcr 2, lao. WIIKN Bl'HIXKSH IS OOOII. When businesa la extra Rood, aoiue ahort-aighted concern! are Inclined to think they don't need advertising. Let's aee! When business la good do you pull the curtains down over your show windows and use the space for stor age? When business is good do you let the clerks loll around and give cus tomers the haughty stare? When business Is good do you stop wrapping up bundles and making careful change? When business Is good do you lock the door, or put out a sign telling people to be on their way? No? Uut why not? "llocuuse," you're saying at this point, "all those are purls of our store service." A per fectly proper answer, as far as It goes. All II overlooks Is that ad vertising, too. Is a part of store ser vice. A vllal part. It's the part thai goes through the city and surround ing country to serve the public with news of your contribution to its wel fure. It is Just as much a part of selling as the work of I lie clerk be hind the counter. It's the part of service that keeps business good. For there's no 24 hour limit on the value of advertis ing. When business Is good, then ad vertising gets easier traction on the road to public fuvur. It stores up momentum for I lie days when trac tion Is harder. It wins permanent friendship not because it brings profit to you but because It is a definite service to your customers. It "belongs" to your business Just as niuch as show windows and pleas ant clerks and making change. To omit It Is the same as putting out that sign telling passers-by nol to bother you. It Is the same as snuffing out the light of public favor. An appeal to the treasury depart ment to extend the time of paying the federal income taxes, to Jauuary. 121, has fallen on deaf ears. Sec retary Houston, Is therefore. Incurr ing some severe criticism, but nil position seems Justified. The conees jion ask?d. je says, would mean virtually eiR-udina government cred it to private business and t hut Is jomethlng I bo government cannot do in the mam r of taxes any more than in the matter of financing tne now ing of crops for a raise In price, iie- ildus, the treasury nas counted on the December payment to nieei ou ligations, and cannot change now. A fact apparently lost sight of by those xeeking an extension of time, Is that the taxes are nearly a year over due Already. They are on last year a- income, and logically should have been paid the first of the year. For ?onveuleuce to the taxpayers, pay moot was not asked until March 15 jnd for further convenience, they were allowed to pay in installments if they preferred, running over nine months time. Thus eleven months credit has been given already. It is also sensible from the taxpayer's ttaiidpoliil to get this payment out of the road as quickly as possible This year s income, is In most In stances, less than last year's and next year's income may be less than this year's. The Income tax, levied in cheap dollars. In being paid in Jear dollars, lletter get the agony over before the dollars get still dear er. There will be a relief, too, in having it out of the way before the Christinas season. January will bring enough new bills. There are various ways of figuring "lurn-over," but they all boll down lo this: Keeping Invested capital at work Instead of loafing on the shelves. There are many men who would not howl so loudly at being lies it tiatlon" victims if tbey could choose their liquids. t'HK'ACiO'H Alll IIOI'KS If all of Chicago's avlutlon plans come through lo success, that city will be the air traffic center of the United Slates. That is the chief aim of the recently organized Air Hoard ot Chicago. To achieve this distin guished position, the Air Hoard pro poses lo promote the new In dustries which will grow up with this new branch of transportation. It bus eulisted the support of the leading commercial and civic organi sations to thla end. The city already has a fine, large lauding field at Ashburn field, now maintained by the aero club of Illinois. It Is now thought that with row Improvements this field will be adequate for all re quirements. Lake Mlcklgan and the prarle country surrounding the city seem to provide full facilities for both laud and sea planes.. In addi tion to these developments of air traffic, there will be schools for In struction In all branches of aeronau tics. Chicago's work along this line. If carried out not solely for the pur pose uf establishing national air su premacy in the Wiudy Clly, hut with willingness to co operate with other cities, should do a great deal to pro mote commercial and private avia tion. The country ueeils more of this sort ot thing If It Is to catch up with (Kuropean aviation, and develop the possibilities of fly ing as they ought lo be developed here. OKMio.M I'i:ahs ahi: iiijst.

"Penny Lunch" is Huge Success CHICAGO. Dec. t. Judging by their patronage, the 3c and 6c lueala put up by the Chicago board oi edu cation are making an enormous suc The city's "penny lunch" buslners runs from forty to fifty thousand customers a day. Sales, measured In pennies and nickels, amount dully between 14000 and I&00U. "We have to chase the children away." remarked Dr. Frank O Ilruner, director ot special schools under the board of education, who has charge of this work. "Often we have to stand at the door and pro tect the luncb looms so tbey won't be overrun." Dr. Bruner said that penny lunches had been established In 67 of the city's elementary schools. Their ob ject, ho observed, Is to provide suli itiinllul food at the least cost for children coming from homes where there is real necessity. Lunch-rooms tiierefore have been oponod In dls Iricts where, as a general thing, the people are not aa well to do. "For five cents," Dr. Ilruner said, "Ihe menu runs something like this: Soup, bread, milk or cocoa, fruit or pudding. "The bill of fare at 3c drops the milk. And then a youngster can spend only a penny if he wants to, buying any one of these articles for It. Or If he is not blessed with wealth and yet has more than a penny, he can for two cents pur chase a meat bull, beans, spagettl, or rice. "The board of education is spend ing $150,000 a year to provide these meals, " added Dr. Bruner. "The board donates all service and equip ment. That includes the rooms, cooks, light, gas the entire main tenance cost. What the children pay goes into the food. We buy at wholesale and the receipts cover the purchase of the food." In addition to the penny lunches, the board of education supplies a bile to eat at the morning recess at 10:30 in ail elementary schools. This jells for a penny and consists of a sandwich with filling of jelly, jam, syrup, peanut butter or oleo, or else t dish of porridge. Then tin-re are 30 or so high ichools. These have their cafeterias. They are run on a different principle. the object being to provide food for students coining from a distance. Mr. Bruner said that in all coses they were self-sustaining. In some the cafeterias are operated on a private concession, in others by tho board of ducation. Germans Express Their Appreciation PHILADELPHIA. Dec. 2. The Geraiun government has expressed to Ihe stale department at Washington Its appreciation of Ihe work of the American Friends Service Commit tee, of Philadelphia, in feeding un dernourished children in the Rhine sector occupied by tho American troops. The American Quakers are furnish ing one hot meal a day to 650,000 children nnd nursing mothers in Ger many, having engaged in this work at tho request of Herbert C. Hoover. During the winter the Friends expect to feed 1.000,000 children and mothers dully. Only the most under nourished children and those In Im minent danger of disease are being fed. The German government's note, which was delivered by the minister if Switzerland, reads In part as fol lows: "For some time nn American relief mission has been In operation In the government district of Coblenz, Us purpose being lo feed undernourished children, nnd it has already helped thousands of German children. The German govern nt Is anxious to express Its thanks officially to the American government for this work of unselfish charity. T be foreign office of Ihe German mpire therefore has the honor to request the Swiss legation to fjonvey ine sincere thanks of the German government to the stale department at Washington. D. C. thrmieh the hwiss legation Tor the generous work of Mr. Noyes (American member of the Hhlnelnnd commission at whose suggestion tne Quakers undertook itie relief work) and for the self- sncrlf Icing activity of Ihe Quakers, who in the service of humanity are creating better living conditions for tnousanus of German children."

II DISCOUKl JS? M Mountain Sheep In Douglas County Although mountain sheep have been declared extinct In western Ore gon for many years, a herd of from 17 to 20 of these animals has been discovered in southwestern Douglas county by W. II. Dlrrett. of Albany. The discovery was mudo less than two weeks ago. Dlrrett has had 23 years' experi ence with big game In the United Stales and Alaska. He served as guide for Colonel Roosevelt on his hunting trips In Montana. Hnv Is thoroughly familiar with mountain sheep and their traits and has writ ten of his discovery to the Btate fish and game commission. Dlrrett, accompanied by J. E. Greenman, of Albany, recently spent several days In the Cow creek canyon district. He says that when first sighted the sheep were In scattered herds of four to six, about 10 miles north of .West Ford in Cow creek canyon, on the left side of the river and about two miles above the South ern Pacific railroad tracks. Dlrrett suys that the sheep were moving south and east about hulf a mile a day and that he does not believe the animals to be migratory. He says there are two old rams In ihe herd. Captain A. E. Biirgndurf, stale game warden, is making a thorough investigation of the report, as it has been generally understood for many years that the only herd of mountain sheep Is In Wallowa county.
