Sherlock, writing in Better Homes and Gar dens says: "He is a hard worker, for he has a job that he loves. Needless to say, his family is happy, contented, healthy. When he comes home at night, Ted and Julia, the two youngsters, are watching down at the corner. With shouts of welcome they "hop" the running-board as he slows down the old bus, and ride up the block and into the driveway,, their laughter and banter heard above the roar of exhaust and the squeal of brakes. When he climbs out they attack by flank and front, until overwhelmed he capitulates and laughingly disgorges the gum or candy always found in his pockets. ; "In a few minutes he comes out of the door again, his grateful homage having been paid to her who has stood at his side through defeat, anguish and death in shadow and -storm as willingly as now. His collar is loosened, his -sturdy black briar aglow, a strange contentment on his care lined face. He wanders about in his flower beds and around .tiis lawn, drinking in the beauty which he has helped to create with his busy hands and ready heart. "In the corner, by the garage, where a shrub thicket holds dominion, a robin is singing his evening roundelay, making the whole neighborhood a shrine. Our friend pauses and listens, a smile hovering on his lips as he watches. .Then he moves to iie other corner of the yard where a . Jenny Wren in her tiny bungalow provided by his hand is the soul of domestic activity. Again he pauses and he is ' satisfied. "Up the yard he turns, caressing this dahlia admiring "ILat hollyhock, drinking in the sweet perfume of that tube 7dse or nodding in greeting to the laughing cosmos ant. .Coreopsis. Perhaps he kneels as at prayer, in the edge ol the lawn but only to root out a vagrant dandelion which has escaped his ever vigilant eye in the past. "Mornings, as the first faint fringes of pink and rose , 'pierce the eastern sky, he comes out in the cool, vibrant Sir, and for an hour works havoc oh his garden foes, ltut at night, like a benediction frotri a day well spent, he mere ly enjoys and looks and learns and listens to the mighty sym phony of Creation. "Then childish voices summon him to the simple repast which frugal taste and healthy appetites most desire. 1 trough the open window, we hear the hush and murmur of thanks going up to the Almighty, as tiny heads bow with those of middle age. "I know a man who has achieved all the, happiness this world holds, because he has learned to work, to love and to laugh. I know him because he is my neighbor and I think one of him lives on your block too!" The fact that Germany has elected a monarchist and friend of the old kaiser, as president, will cause anxiety in the rest of the world. Yet it does not necessarily prove that the Germans want war again. The business men of that country felt that Jn voting for Hindenburg1, they were opposing those dreamy theories. The Germans -are at pres ent worrying as to how they can borrow money in America. If they find it difficult to obtain loans for fiheir relatively small peace time enterprises, it Would be 100 times as diffi cult to secure them to promote it military campaign. The German politicians will have quite a jolt the next time they appear in the American financial markets, to pass the hat for a loan. It will no doubt be said to them, that a country that will place a representative of the discredited old regime at the head of its government, is not entitled to a credit rating. 0 r- i'Jext week Itoseburg will go over tlie top with one of the best Strawberry carnivals staged hero for a long tune. The program prepared for this year's es-ent is exception ally good and the entire three days will be full of merriment. By the time the average fellow learns something about his automobile it is time to buy a new one.

Everybody expects to pay some taxes, but why impose unnecessary taxes on yoursell? Do you realize that every time you drive your car on an unpaved highway you are actually taxing yourself one to four cents a mile? This is the cost o! increased repair, tire and gasoline bills. Highway research has definitely established these facts. Each year you tax yourself in this way a good many dollars. Instead of spending this money for increased transportation costs, why not invest it in Concrete Highways and pay yourself some dividends? Concrete Roads and Streets pay for themselves in the saving they effect on the cost of motoring. Their maintenance cost is so low that this saving alone returns good dividends on the investment, year after year. You are imposing an unnecessary tax on yourself from which you get no return, by failing to work for more Concrete Highways. Not in a long time have general con ditions been so favorable for carrying on such public works as permanent high way building. Your highway authorities are ready to carry on their share of this great public work. But they must have your support. Tell them you are ready to invest in more Concrete Highways, now.
