ROSEBURO, OREGON, SHORT CUTS Anyone who is willing to work and has a moderate de gree of intelligence can get ahead and acquire some property in this country, assuming that one has health and encount ers no exceptional misfortune to cat up his cash. Thou sands of banks In these times are preaching the gospel of ; thrift and industry, and telling people how they can get . ahead. It may seem a somewhat slow pull at first, but a multitude of people are travelling that road successfully, ac quiring their homes and bank deposits and securing them selves against misfortune. But many complain because the money piles up very slowly at first. They are very likely unwilling to put their wits to work on their jobs, to prepare themselves for greater efficiency, and so that their services "shall command a higher price in the market of industry and "" business. Many of these impatient folks have conceived the idea that there are short cuts to money, so that the long and toilsome path of work and thrift can be avoided. So we have the appalling story of thievery and swindling and crime which is spread out from day to day in the newspapers. But these crooks consist principally of young and inexperienced men. The older ones have learned by observation, that While one may be able to pull off some wicked deed once or several times, the habitual criminal is almost invariably detected, and his career is wrecked and his chances of a happy home and successful career are spoiled. Anyone but a young fool should be able to see the folly of the short cut of dishonesty. They are setting themselves to make war against the entire community, and the forces against them are too powerful. There is no excuse in this land of opportunity, in which a multitude of people are constantly winning success by legiti mate means, for any resort to crooked ways. CORPORATIONS EFFICIENT AND POLITE My telephone rang just now. When I took down the re ceiver the following conversation ensued: "Hello." "Our telephone rang." ''Will you excuse us, please'?'1 "Yes, with pleasure." I didn't mind going to the telephone because of that "Will you excuse us, please?" How the big corporations try to E've satisfaction, and iiow we abuse them! Yet their service is the most wonder ful, the cheapest thing we have. - Same way with the water companies, the railroad com panies, the electric lighting companies, the street railway companies, the gas companies. We'll finally boycott all these, because they are so polite, " M miirmo-pH mid work SO cheat). Don't growl at the corporations ; try to be as useful, polite and efficient as they are. The corporation men are the best we have. They actually make the progress we are so proud of; we in The Herd really have little to do with it. This is not paid piffle in the interest of dangerous, dis honest men ; it is God's honest truth. Find a howler who , amounts to as much, by any test, as the men they abuse, and I'll agree to become a Socialist. And hang myself. For I wouldn't care to live if I had to be a Socialist. E. II. Howe's Monthly. NEW STANDARDS New standards of advertising for department stores nil over the country were adopted at the fourteenth annual con vention of the National Retail Dry Goods association, which was in session recently in New York. "As retail advertising men, it devolves upon us to con serve and advance the reputation of retail business and of the institutions we represent," says the new code. "Recog nizing that our duty to the public, as well as the best inter ests of retailing, call for honesty, sincerity and candor in ad vertising, we have formulated these standards of practice to govern the profession. "Advertising is socially useful because it enables the consumer to buy more intelligently and with less effort. We have thought of advertising as commercially useful in per forming a twofold function, to sell tho merchandise adver tised, and to sell the institution advertised. We should think of it as performing a third function also, selling advertising itself. "As advertising men we should be as jealous of the reputation of our profession as the wise merchant is jealous of the reputation of his establishment. Advertising should not only be truthful, but should at all times avoid oven the SEMBLANCE of untruth or tho suspicion of insincerity. Understate rather than overstate." jThe boys at Salem nre pit-kin up the draft etuis today mid pulling thorn togethrr to wind up tho r.'2." session of .the state legislature. And it will be no small job. Today was celebrated us a holiday by those who didn't have anything oUc to do. The other fellows got in their best Jieks to make good on a short month. 0 Some fellows get the idea that their working capacity consists principally of exercising their vocabulary ability. .JTenltfcDt and Manager Scretaiy-Treaaurer -MO0 1.00 1.00 M . .60 year- 1.00 MONDAY, FEB. 23, 1925.

BENJAMIN TODAY (Amm-HmI Pra-M l-'aard Wire.) ' BAN KKANCISCO. Feb. 23. Jack Silver and Joe Benjamin, light weight., were ready today to enter j the ring at Recreation Park for the ten rn'ind bout w hich will decide I who will po east to meet the winner i ot an elimination content to bring forth a successor to Benny Leonard I retired lightweight champion. i Despite unsettled climatic condi tions, the promoters of the event and the fight-following public were 1 optimistic, basing their hopes on j the official forecast: "Rain followed , by clearing weather. Yesterday's ! heavy rainfall failed to bring about I any change In the plnns of those 1 supervising the fight. The sale of i seats was reported to have been 1 brisk with virtually all ringside and I box seats disposed of. Both men were scheduled to weigh In this morning at 135 pounds j and again publicly just before enter-j Ing the ring. Interest in the bout was Intense, j .as it would be the first content of its kind to be held In this section ! of the state in ten ;'ear. Silver had the long betting odds of ten to seven, with few takerB on either end. Both men were said to be in the beM possible condition. Local fight followers contended that Silver's youth would outweigh Rejtunin's hard hitting ability and ring ex perience. A warm sun brightened a cloud less sky this morning encouraged the belief that the main event would start at 3:45 a. m., as scheduled. The first preliminary was on the program for two o clock.

Out of a dozen aspirants for the coveted oost of Soviet ambassador to Jap an, It Is thought likely that Adolph Joeffe. now ambassador to Aus tria, has the best chance. The po sition Is regarded, as so Important by the government that even Leon Trotzkv has been considered as a Dosslble incumbent, borne or tne former war chief's colleagues In ; the government appear anxious to j temper the punishment meted out : to him recently by having him des ignated for the Tokio post. Trotzky's health, however, Is so poor that it Is generally believed he would be unable at present to undertake such an active post as the Tokio ambassadorship. In any case It is known that the posi tion has been offered to him dur ing his present stay at Sukhum, and declined. ; AXTLF.KS THKATISE. One of tho most fascinating and entertaining stories which wa have ever seen is on view at the Antlers Theatre. It Is "Tho Song of Love," starring the mag netic Norma Talmadge, ana u would be difficult to visualize a role more, ritting for the star. 11 la one of the finest and most ar tistic performances to her credit. In this First Rational picture, which was produced by Joseph M. Schenck, Miss Talmadge plays the part of an Arabian aancing gin who becomes tho center of dev ious intrigues and conspiracies. Joseph Scliildkraut, one or tne sensations of the llroadway stage, is Miss Talmailge's leading man. and, In our estimation, Is entitled to Btellnr heights tnrougn nts in terpretation of tho part of the spy lover. M.UKSTIC THEATRIC. Itaby Peggy, comedienne of fairy tales, turns tragedienne of problem plays, In her lnte:,t role on the screen. For ill "The Law Forbids," Fnivorsars second big Jewel production at the Majestic tonight, starring tho most famous little tirl in the world, she Is tho child of a divorce-rent family; through a maze of infatuation, a "trial separation" and other trials and tribulations of grownups she steers a course that is a lesson to a world much older and soph isticated than herself. J.lltFltTY TIIEATISK. There Is a timely lesson for the sterner sex. humorously present ed, in "Let Women Alone", tho feature at the Liberty Theatre to day and tomorrow. The moral is that if a woman says she won't, she simply won't, and no mere man can make her. Tho picture is splendidly acted by an exceptionally cast, and, al though It is rich in thrills and contains some Intensely dramatic moments, at core It is a comedy and as tunny situations and new bits of comedy business flashed on tho screen last night, the house virtually rocked with laughter.
