FRIENDLY BUSINESS RIVALS
It isn't so many years since almost every .man in busi
ness looked upon another man in the same line of business
asva. deadly enemy. Each thought the other was an "out
sider," and each made it his business to "go after" the other
fellow to give him a wallop.
.Not so today. The man in business is more and more
learning that building his own business requires . his best
th'dught and his best ability; and that some of his time can
bast be employed in helping not crushing his fellow busi
ness man.
He realizes that while as a people we are in the com
mercial or competitive stage, we are slowly emerging out of
this into the age of co-operation, or enlightened self-interest.
i2 1 There is a popular saying that runs something like this:
"Knock, and the world knocks you; boost, and you boost
alone." Cut like most popular sayings this is truth turned
wrong side out
It is only through love and friendship that we build
well and lasting. Hate is a negative condition- It is love
and friendship that benefits, refines, creates.
u We are seeing evidence of this in the growing number
of Successful business men who unselfishly give of their time
and their money to help build the business of others. It is
apparent almost everywhere in the commerical clubs,
chambers of commerce, Rotary Clubs, Kiwanis clubs and
other groups whose memlers are joined together for the
purpose of building the business of the communities in which
they live. Publishers' Auxiliary.

ZZ1 AS LIFE-LONG ADVERTISER SEES IT
Up at Portland last week the Ad Club presented an
honorary life membership in the organization to Pen Selling,
a pioneer merchant of that city, expressive of the apprecia
tion of the old clothier's attitude toward printer's ink. Mr.
Selling surprised the Ad Club in a little informal talk fol
lowing his admission to the ranks of the ad men, and wide
ly known as he is throughout Oregon and indeed the whole
Northwest, the distinguished speaker alleged that it was his
' bcli'ef that he would be forgotten within six months if he
stopped his advertising. But this is what he said :
"My father was greatly opposed to advertising and
thought it a waste of money. I held the opposite view when
I became connected with business. I believe now that I
would lose my customers in about six months if I quit adver
tising' "One of the privileges which I esteemed as highly as
(ffything in my life was my acquaintance and later friend
ship with Sam Jackson of The Journal. I have today the
copy of our first advertising contract. It provided that 1
was to have space in The Journal at 25 cents an inch, and
If niy use of space in a six-months period aggregated $250
I. was to have a discount to 20 cents an inch
. Jum "My arrangement with the Telegram provided for nil
the space I wanted to use for $10 a month.
"The solicitor who came from the Orcgonian to get my
advertising bought a pair of pants from the stock in my
store, and he still owes me for the pants."
o
In 1021 the federal government was spending 00 per
cent of the amount collected by taxes, while now, as various
.costs involved by the war have been reduced, it is spending
only U3 per cent of these taxes. So that from now on, the
taxpayers must look chiefly to the state, county, and muni
cipal government for relief. They should ask their local
government everywhere if it will not be possible to put these
services on a more efficient basis. They should expect the
same kind of service from them that the stockholders of a
business corporation expect from their employes.

The scientific study of home management problems
was called for in a resolution passed by the recent Interna
tional Council of Women, such study to be a part of univer
sity courses. It was urged that the men as well as the wom
en should make a study of such problems. Much home work
is done by toilsome hand processes which could be belter ac
complished by labor saving devices. If the men would Miulv
those problems, perhaps ' take a hand at domestic work
themselves, they would provide appliances needed for better
results.

NEW FRIENDS AND OLD
New friends we make from day
to day as down life's path we tot
ter; we meet them when the cold
winds play and when the days get
hotter. Oh, some of them will
prove most true and some will
get your "nanny"; some loyally will
stand by you till snow falls In
Guianny. It's well enough to make
new friends don't think that I op
pose It; they're mighty handy
things to have and everybody
knows it; but when unto your
friendship chain you add Tom, Dick
or T raver, those who've been true
through sun and rain ehould stand
first In your favor. True friends
like diamonds, precious are and
scarce as chicken molars; false
ones are scattered near and far
from torrid to the polars. Let not
some little discord mar true friend
ship's golden glitter; remember
friends but human are and do not
be a quitter. Let's make new friends
with thoughtful care, not grab 'em
hokus-pokus; or some day they
may grab our hair and In the mid
riff soak us. Then we will chant
a bitter wail, deploring such rank
action, and yearn to grab a five
tailed flail and take sweet satis
faction. Stick to the friends who
through long years haVe proven
true and loyal and when misfor
tune grabs your ears, they'll stage
a battle royal.

EL PASO, Tex., May 26. The
wife of a man who followed him
from Los Angeles to El Paso and
yesterday shot him fatally in a
crowded court room, is being held
by authorities here today pending
the outcome of her husband's
wound.
Mrs. C. R. Jones, slender, pretty
blonde was desperate to gain pos
session of her 5-year-old daughter,
police learned. Her husband had
had the child since the couple
quarreled In Los Angeles and his
resultant departure for 1 Paso,
she said.
In effortB to reach an agree

and his wife came to the local
courtroom and consulted It. B.

He lectured them, calling their
separation foolish. This appeared
to have been effective. Following
it the couple seemed to talk amic
ably. Hut It was only a few minutes

were shocked by the report of a
small "bulldog" revolver, which
Mrs. Jones dropped to the floor
