! l'erhap. there waa something 1
could do with this new freedom of
mine, something In the world of
, work that even an Inexperienced itlrl
could do. Hut as I read long columns
or "Help Wanted, Female" It was
one word In t tiers all that stared up
at me: ' Kxpertenc." It aeemlnxly
made oo difference whether It was
of flie girl or servant that waa

Inx, my attention was caught by an
advertisement for a companion for
j a lady on a trip Kuat. I read it
slowly:
"A lady going KaBt immediately
would pay all expenxes of a traveling
companion. If satisfactory would
keep her Indefinitely. Apply at once,
Mrs. Klmcr K 11 wood, Hotel Ambaa-,

"Uolng Immediately,

I glanced at the clock.
The place was probably

caused my heart to beat fast at a I

I morning," I said aloud to myself as I
I went to bed. "It won't do any I
1 harm to see her and find out If she
ha engaged someone." J
' I slept fitfully, fearful of over-
'sleeping. I arose very early, aud
dressed carefully, taking pains to
make myself as attractive as poa
' slide with tho little at my command.
I Then I went out and got some hreak
I fast. I bad eaten nothing since the
I morning before, and was taint wlln;
hunger. .My breakfast paid for. I i
had exactly ix rents in the world.
Ten of that must go for carfare to;
the Ambassador and back.
"Klghteen cents to buck the world ;

aloud as I boarded the car. That ,
iword took all my courage from me. I

"Come this way," A bell-boy led
me to the elevator, gave me the

' Independence,
j "I waa Id time I was In time
: the place wasn't taken." so my
thoughts tumbled over each . other.
1 Mrj. Kllwood would not have wasted
time seeing me If she had already en
. gajred someone.
I I was shown Into a handsome par-
lor. A tall dark young man waa the
j only occupant, lie ruae lazily, and
asked:
I "You are tbe young lady who has
answered lira. Kllwood f advertise
ment?" Without replying, he riveted his
eyes upon me. They not only
searched me. they tore through me
until I felt they were seeing my very
soul. "Why should he look at me
like that?" I thought as I waited.
I'nder the penetration of his gaze 1
could not force my eyelids to drop.
I flinched slightly, but could not
stir from the compelling quality of
hi gaze. He turned from me at a
slight sound, the door opened and!
Mr. Kllwood came In. i
"The young lady In answer to

young man bowed mockingly. J
"L'm, yea. Well, my dear, where
are your references?" The medium
sized, ill-looking woman a? ked. Her
face was very white, and there were
dark shadows under her eyes. I
noticed she walked uncertainly.
"I haven't any. I never have had
a position.
"You have lived at home with
your parents?" She studied me as she
spoke.
'Tntll they died two years ao.
Since then I have been living with
my father's sinter. She was burled
just a week ago."
"You have friends who can recom.
mend you, the pastor at your church

"No, my Aunt allowed me no
friends. I seldom went to church."
I replied, then something within me
forced me to say: ' I am sure I can
be of service to you. Aunt was often
ill and I waa her only nurae and
companion. And I must go some

WOKUIKD.
WORRIED: Through being repres
sed, the attraction that thie man holds
for you has probably magnified itself
out of all proportion. Resolve to
yourself that you will put this man
out of your mind, and then Interest
yourself In other people and interests.
If you make a real effort to do this,
I am sure that in a short time you will
wonder how you could ever have felt
as you do now. Attractions of the
kind you have are not uncommon, but
believe me, they are very foolish and
you will realize this later. You are
wrong to think yourself better oft
alone. Ho not worry about marriage,
and wait until you are really in love
with someone who reciprocates your
affection, and ou will feel different-
iy
bashfidness. and .very time you talk
to anyono you think of it again, and
expect it, and .o of course you become
s-:lf conscious. Forge: younelf In in
terest In . other people and what
they are saying. Bashfulncss
is really a nervous disease, and you
can be helped by a little intelligent
study of psychoanalysis. If you care
to study this subject, and will send,
me a self addressed, stamped enve
lope, I will send you the nam. of
books on the subjects that can be se
cured through the library. Overeating
is not a conrtibutlng cause. Bo your
pleasant natural self to this man, and
when you have an opportunity of see
ing him be friendly. Ih h. care, to
continue the acquaintanc. he will do
so.
In Regard to Dlxonvill. Road
Editor News-Kevlew: '
In last Tuesday'. Issue of your vaj
able paper appeared an article by Dr.
0. H. Dailey in regard to Leer Creek
road, in which it wa .tawd the road
wa rapidly deteriorating and full of
chuck holm.
Thl. atatement is correct to a cer
tain extent, however, the writer of
tbe article was misinformed or sever
al other statements as follows:
First, Not one dollar of gasoline
tag or auto license fee. are turned
over to any road In Douglas County
excepting the Pacific highway. Coos
Bay highway. These fees being, turned
over to and under control of the State
Slhgway Commission.
Second, he states he does not know
the assessed valuation of this district.
According to the 1922 tax roll
summr.ry the assessed valuation of
road district No. 2 was I4S0.S80, as
this district extended to the Lone
Kock terry and took in part of Eden-'
bower we can readily see there are,
he.riv no miles of road in thlB district,
Including the side roads. I
He further states that the road
t..., i k .niii in thl. statement. He Is
again misinformed, as the last year's
levy wa. only 3 9-10 nims, insieaa o.
5 mills. According to law each road
district receives but 7 per cent of
thia levy or approximately 2 milla.
which on an assessed valuation of
IttiO.liSO will raise approximately
JlutiO. Divide this by your road mile
age of 30 miles and you have an aver
age of 1333.00 per mile per. year to
maintain the roads of this district,
which has never voted any special tax
for years, although their attention has
been called time and again to the
necessity of such tax for maintaln
enre purposes.
This year however, they voted a
email tax for a aectlon through Black
Mud Hollow which 1b 100 per cent
worse than any of the road from
Koseburg to Dlxonvllle.
This letter is not written to In any
way apologize for the present condi
tion of the Deer Creek road which is
bad enough, and while dragging
might help the road temporarily, the
road Is worn out and needs at least
3U00 yards of fine crushed rock for,
resurfacing in order that the grader
may have material to work into thu
chuck holes
In view of the fact that 35 road dis-j
tricts have Just voted special taxea for
maintaining and improving their roadgi
Including the West Edenbower andi
.Melrose district. West of the rail road1
track has Junt voted another 10 mill1
tax for paving. It doe. seem that :
the residents between Roseburg and,
Dixonvllle snouia at least De wium.
to vote a small tax to assist in the
uialntalnence of this Important road.

Editor News-Review: Today we put in
the drive to raise money to feed the
starving Germans. Here is hoping we
raise it. The thought has Just come to
me, what are we going to do with this
money when raised? Are we going to
send it East? There to buy the very
lb lima we have here to sell?
We have thousands of tons of
pruies that the growers cannot find a
market for at profitable prices.
Prunes are a good wholesome food
and no doubt will be included in sup
plies sent over, but bought in New
York at a great Increase in price over
what they can be had here for, owing
to that "overhead" we hear eo much
about.
Not one dollar of the tlOO.nAO Ore
gon Is asked to contribute should be
sent out of the state but spent here
among the producers. We have every

NEW YORK, Jan. 21. Fire pre
vention is the subject which per
haps more than ary other interests
the Underwriters' Laboratories,
with work shops In Chicago, N-'w
York and San Francisco where tests
to secure dependable data on all
kinds of fire resisting materials con
stantly are being made. The recent
experience of the city of Berkeley,
California, with a destructive fire
diew attention ngaln to flro resistive
roofs. By means of specially design
ed furnaces roofing materials were
once more subjected to the same ex
posure to fire and wind that they
would meet In actual emergency, and
the tests showed that there need nev
er be such a thine; as a roof fire.
The Laboratories, operated for ser
vice under the cusplces of the In
surance companies, headed by the
National Board of Fire Underwriters,
have had a busy year. Originally
they consisted of two men working
in one room. They now have three
large plants and employ nearly 200
engineers
Many facts of vital Importance
have been brought out In the tests
of fire doors, fire windows and shut
ters and building materials used in
walls, floors and partitions. Those
are compelled to withstand flames at
a temperature up to 1 700 degrees for
periods varying from 45 minutes to
an hour, and In some cases even
longer. Safes avo heated to 1700 de
grees for an hour. Thev are then
hoisted 30 feet .ami dropped on a
pile of brick, reheated for another
hour, and when opened must show
no damage to their contents.
There has been a notable Increase !
In the number and variety of elec
trical apparatus submitted to the
laboratories, and the small percent
ace of elivtrica! fires as compared
with those from all other causes, is
said, according to the annual report
of the association, to be largely due
to Underwriters' Laboratories in
spection and test. I
