FAVORITE INDOOR SPORT
. . Passing; the buck is s regular indoor sport with man
people. For instance, when some fellow wants to lambaat
another person he writes a communication to his local paper,
setting forth his grievances in yery plain language with a
formidable display of adjectives to give his thoughts full ex
pression. Then, after all has been Baid and done, he seals
fiis communication with a fictitious signature, affixes a two
cent stamp and shoots it to the editor of the local newspaper,
whom, he imagines, is nothing more or less than a novice
and ever ready to pull chestnuts from a bed of red hot coals
to satisfy the personal whims of a subscriber. Well, we got
over this habit a long time ago. But not until we had the
privilege of "holding the sack" for a number of energetic
people who wanted to get something off their chest at our
expense. This paper is always ready and willing to give
fullest publicity to matters of public interest. - It will even
go further, in some instances. But we cannot, and will not,
let any individual, no matter how important his station in
public affairs, use the columns of this paper for a gossip'
mill. How any person could have the temerity to ask a pa
per to stand behind an assertion that they themselves are
afraid to sponsor over their own signature is beyond concep
tion. But every now and then we are called upon to do this
very thing but we don't do it
o -
- - A fellow townsman walked into our sanctum yesterday
and said he was proud of one thing probably two. One was
the fact that he had a good set of teeth and the other was the
virtue of maintaining a whole lot of pep and ginger at the
age of three score years, or thereabouts. There was a time
wiven the world was told by a certain noted physician that
viten a fellow reached the age of sixty years he should be
"KnocKed off." But in this day and age particularly in the
r Umpqua Valley it is a common occurrence to witness men
: far above the sixty year age limit frolicking with the boys
and getting as much kick out of life as the younger set. And
.we know of no better or more wholesome way to keep the
flower of youth in your bosom than to give way to ttie clean
frivolities of the younger set It makes finer men and
women and fits them better for home and business life.
o
Roseburg is making a good, sound conservative growth.
Nothing spectacular nothing savoring of a boom just
growing bigger and better every day. And the future pre
sents many constructive accomplishments that will be born
before the year 1925 goes down in history. The fellow who
thinks that there is anything in the air that will keep the
tity from growing is nursing an Illusion. Once in awhile
YOU hear Some nessimistic fpllnur "hlnu-ino- nff" ohnnt uhol
will happen when the Natron cut-off is completed. If any
thing happens it will redound to the benefit of Roseburg, and
we look for that very thing to occur nothing else.
f ' During the writer's absence from the city last week, one
of our dearest and most esteemed friends answered the call
of the Master. With an acquaintanceship lasting over a period
of thirty years we have never found a person in whom we
could place a trust of confidence, whose friendship we prized
more highly, whose every action was directed through Jove
and kindness, than that of Mrs. Charlos L. Hadley. We look
ed upon this dear old soul as a mother. Her life through all
the years we have known her has been an inspiration to ac
complish the good, the pure, the more wholesome things ot
life that build better and purer womanhood.
o
Start right in today to save your pennies so that on next
, Tuesday, April 7, you will have assembled one Dig, round
iron dollar to be given for the benefit of the Children's Farm
: Home at Corvnlli. Thp H
. ciJ Women's Christian Temperance Union and is one of the
most worthy causes to come before the pooplo of Roseburg.
When you contribute to the welfare of the children of this
state you are doing something worth while for the future
generation and the work undertaken is deserving ot
your fullest Bupport. Let's go over the top next Tuesday
with a bang good and strong.

Portland is taking on the earmarks of a metropolitan
city. Her latest achievement to cope with her rivals is the
slaying of a woman by an unknown person who demon

The greatest css-word puzzle going the rounds tinlay

trying to accomplish something constructive. .
