ROSEBURG, OREGON, THUR60AV, NOVEMBER 19, 1925
IN KEEPING WITH
:L.. Roseburg is thankful to
istryinir to do to prevent
States Land Office at Roseburg by the one at Portland. If
the case appeared to be merely an action on part of one lo
cality striving from purely selfish motives to wrest an insti
tution from another, its failure on such grounds alone would
result as a matter of course. But, unfortunately for Rose
burg, the case does not appear to be of such a nature. The
local land office, according to authentic sources, has simply
been slated by the federal officials ait Washington, upon their
own initiative, for discontinuance as part of the administra
tion's program of economy, which was manifested in vari
ous western localities a few
ticularly evidenced locally by the retirement of one of the
officials of the Roseburg office.
That at least 90 per cent of the government lands in
western Oregon are situated in this portion of the state, in
contrast to the far inferior area contiguous to the Portland
land office, is a fact that weighs heavily against the pro
posed merger. Authorities at Washington, however, moved
soley by considerations of economy and supposedly easier ad
ministration, have doubtless figured that such government
lands as remain unsold in western Oregon can be just as
efficiently taken care of by one land office as two, at approx
imately one-half the expense, and that Portland, for some
mysterious reason, offers advantages superior to Roseburg
1 as an agency for the entire region.
Congress, to whom it is proposed to appeal to prevent
the merger, has had "economy" dinned into its ears during
the present administration until it has become paramount to
all other considerations, and one land office more or less can
hardly be expected to swerve it from the beaten path of that
policy. However, there may be a chance to save the local of
fice, and be it ever so slight we owe it not only to ourselves
but to the loyalty of Mr. Smith to take advantage of it.
THEN AND
Not until we have done away with certain classes of au
tomobile drivers, either by education or by means of force,
can the average motorist take the road in safety. This is the
way one writer sums up the shortcomings of many motor
ists: When we have
Blotted out the drunken driver;
Abolished the underage motorist;
Outrun the "beat the train" driver;
Shot down the highway robber driver;
'. Forced the road hog into a bottomlesj ditch ;
Taught the no-signal driver sign language;
Caught the hit-and-run driver for good and all time;
Whipped the smartness out of the smart aleck driver;
Thrown the bootlegger driver behind the bars for twen
ty years. ,
Convinced the speed maniac that he is not in such a hur
ry af 'T all ;
Stepped on the loafer driver's rear bumper to give him
reasonable speed; .
Equipped the one-light driver's car with three lights in
stead of two;
And just naturally pounded some common sense into the
bono-headed driver's cranium with a sledge hammer, if
necessary;
Then, and not until then, can the average man drive out
to a nearby lake for a picnic supper or a fishing trip with
reasonablo assurance that he will return home fit and whole,
and not to a hospital maimed and mangled.

BIOGRAPHICAL,
.Young Robert Clive, he sat alone, and said, "This life's
a fake; man's function is to sigh and groan and weep, and no
mistake. My hopes have flivvercd one by one, and I am sore
distraught ; so now I'll take my little gun and shoot my dome
of thought" He aimed tho weapon at his head and it re
fused to fire; "What beastly Juck," tho young man said, "I
cannot e'en expire." Since suicide hnd failed lie turned his
thoughts to other things, and in a little while hnd earned a
fame that jolted kings. All kinds of history he made, an em
pire was his own, and never shall his glory fade while Bri
tain has a throne. Ho was his
nations pride; and once he was an also-ran who thought of
filicide. His rusty pistol failed to fire when pointed at his
dome; and then, with force that naught cduld tire, he brought
the bacon home. The book of history we read would be an
other tale, had that old weapon, In his need, been not disposed
to fail. The maps that now are tinted red might well be
green or dun, had not a bullet made of lead, got jammed in
that old gun. (They're celebrating Robert's birth In Britain's
lealm this year; from Birmingham to distant Perth men
stand axound and cheer. And all the time and everywhere
his record should be read by down-and-outers in despair,
who wish that they were dead.

The New York state supervisor of physical education
has issued a warning against overdoing competitive athletics.
He points out the need for physical examinations before
young people join athletic teams. There has been much de
bate as to whether the harder athletic pports injure young
people or not. It is remarke'd by athletic trainers, that after
a runner has acquired a certain amount of lung and heart
poyer, he must look put for additional danger of degenera
tion, t Those who acquire enlarged physical powers and then
fail to keep up training and use that increased power, take
a chance that these enlarged

Yes, I waa "stout" once. Don't
you hate the word? I weighed
(for a short time) - 220 pounds.
I now weigh 150, which Is seven
pounds more than our rule allows,
but It seems to be right for me.
So I do know how grateful you
are. My reduction' was accom

spiration for my book.
