ROSEBURG A SUBSTANTIAL AND GROWING CITY Building records for the year 1925, just closed, show E that Roseburg has enjoyed a greater growth the past year in the way of new business structures end beautiful and sub X btantial homes than.ever beore in its history. In fact, it has Z practically doubled the largest sum of any previous year ex Z pended for building purposes. ' This, In itself, is conclusive "" evidence of the city's substantial growth and general pros- Ferity. There has been nothing in the way of a "boom" to - create this steady progress, but on the contrary the city has to.: been going ahead yi a .very conservative maimer, building Z only as demands were made for the just needs of the new Zt enterprises established from time to time; The county gen 1 erally has experienced a like condition. Many new people have found this section an ideal place to make their home, ;.nd the county is gradually adding a lot of wealth and energy to its already varied resources. Climatic conditions are so ideal the year round throughout the Umpqua Valley that it .IT has attracted the attention of visitors to the extent that they 2 "have become much impressed with this locality as offering ,. a most equitable climate throughout the entire year. This county is the home of thousands of contented, hap !!'' jiy and prosperous people. It has great wealth from an agri- ... cultural standpoint and offers inducements equal, and in I many instances superior, to any other section of the state to energetic and thrifty people. It is tremenduously rich in natural resources, has one-sixth of all the standing timber in -"Oregon, is fifth among the counties of Oregon in apples and agricultural land, and is third among the counties of the state in pear production. ' """ Ninety-two per cenUof the people of this county pride themselves upon being American born. Educational facilities are the best We now Jiave eight groups of districts organ ized into union schools for high school purposes only with , a combined valuation of $7,961,640. By means of these " schools high school education has been greatly advanced in the rural sections. Thus hundreds of boys and girls, who . .otherwise would have never gone to high school, are now completing four years of high school work in these commun- "fly schools while the home circle remains unbroken. As, a re- suit of the drive for better schools and better equipment " twenty-one schools have been standardized according to the .requirements of the State Board of Education, forty-two rm have been properly lighted, and many other improvements Ait school room and play grounds have netted the schools - over 1000 points toward the total requirements of standardly- ization in the county. Every safeguard and assistance is offered the new set--"' tier in this county and we welcome you to the best in the . West, with full assurance that you will not be disappointed by any claims made in the New Year's edition of the News ; Review. LOOKING BACK ITO 1926. In .America the year 1925 has been a rather quiet one. ',. There have been no startling public movements. We inau gurated a president in March, but his policy has dwelt on ' economy and efficiency more than .on Hie passage .of new laws. Congress, whifch usually works .through a good part of the spring and summer, was allowed to stay at home, and has only just assembled. The lower house thereof has just passed a new income tax reduction law, which some will say was the most notable event of the year. A gradual improve ment of the business situation, and the campaign of Vice President Dawes for limitation of debate in the senate, have been two features of interest. In the industrial world the anthracite coal strike has been a very disturbing factor, and probably the most sensational event of the year. While America has passed 1925 rather quietly, the developments in Europe have been of the most historic importance. It did not seem up to the past year, as if the war were really over at all. The nations shook their fists across their boundar ies, and it seemed as if they would far rather fight again than give up their various contentions. In 1925 a new spirit seemed to come over these antagonistic peoples. They seem ed all at once to have reached the conclusion that thy were getting nowhere on this policy, that further war would ruin their civilization entirely, and produce universal bankruptcy, and that it would be far better to settle their existing differ ences by the best peace means available, than it would be to resort to fighting. We have now the successful working of .the Dawes plan, and still more important, the Locarno agree ment, which seems not unlikely to result in the greatest era of peace the world ever knew. It looks as if 1925 would be legarded as a very bright year in world history. - o PfWNE PICKING By BERT G. BATES The people should not think, because the country Is prosperous, that the need for philanthropy does not exist. All through the cities and towns there are those who have been hard hit by unfortunate circumstances, and who can not pos sibly meet the demands for money that are made on them. It seems pitiful if in a land of plenty there are some who, without fault .on their part, do not know where the money for the next day's food is coming from, or how they can re place their outworn garments. Our finely organized charit able societies find many of these cases all the time, and they. could always use wisely all the money they could obtain. They should be sufficiently provided with funds here in Roseburg so that they would never have to refuse worthy calls for help.

The bells that ring out the old year and ring in the new ere just the same ones that ring every day in the year. But somehow as these chimes sound aloud, a new thrill attach . es to them. You seem to feel the grandeur of the moment, "' the solemnity of this lapse of time, lt is as if one for a mo ment had a kind of detached place of observation, where he - could observe the procession of the seasons, the march of time, and the sweep of the universe as it swings along to its distant and unknown goal. The littlenesses of every day seem to drop out of sight for a moment, and one feels the vastness of time and eternity, and the significance of the passing years. That is, an imaginative person can feel that "" way. To many of us, whose noses are pressed hard against ZZ. IhJ grindstone of labor, tho days all seem about alike. But that is a point of view that does not help to gain clear vision. Or to many of us who are full of gaiety and search" for plea 2; sure, the new year is just Uie beginning of a lot more of good times. We look forward with a thrill of expectation to all - sorts of good fortune that the now period of time is to bring. That point of view has its uses, as anyone who looks "Z. forward hoefully to the future and always sees the brighter bide of tho days to come, is bound to find much joy. Human nature expresses the thought of the day by saying "Happy New Year." But happiness is not brought by good fortune that comes without effort. It comes because we learn how to work for it and how to find it in the circumstances sur- rounding us. So tho old custom of New Year resolves had sound logic in it. It us resolve to make it a year of loval ( effort for God and country, our home community and all Z. whom we love. p-overnment envnlonps If lhi rnn Kin -,, l proacnea us ana sata witn oown-cast eyes: uo you ever ao cnialiotin nv : l u u l I anything m the nude." And we murmured sweetly, uuwunum, yi iiiwjyuio, CUIII JJ1 ill 11 jig UOU1U Ul tUUrsC W tt legitimate proposition. But the government has always been conducted on the idea that it should not supercede the oper ations of private business any more than is necessary. The American idea has been that it is better for most of the or dinary forms of work to be done under the stimulus and in centives of individual ambition and initiative. There does not seem any more reason why the government should pro vide the printing on the envelopes which it sells, than that it should print the billheads, and letterheads which go in those envelopes. o j. We some times take a bawth. A bambino socked us on the back this a. m. and said, "Happy New Year" but his clammy handshake would have been a good advance agent for the undertaker.
