BUSINESS' fJEW OUTLOOK
PPUNE
PICWS
'They run in cycles." That was the way the old-time
businCss man used tt speak of periods Of industrial depres
sion. ;it was taken for granted that any period Of prosper
ity hjd to be followed by hard times; In which factories
would' be idle, men would be out of work and dividends
would" dwindle. But a new idea is coming to the froilt now.
Edward A. Filt'iie, Boston merchant, voices it in the cur
rent isue 6f Forbes' Magazine.'
'ind times and unemployment are largely prevent
able,' she writes. "They are natural results of the incred
ible waste that still exists in production and distribution,
whiclS in turn is due to faulty economic and business think
ing.":. 'x
lJi'Osperity( Mr. Filone says comes wlien the masses of
people have good buying power; that is, when they enjoy
high wages and salaries, and when the things they wish to
buy are priced low. Mass production, he points out, has
madesboth of these situations prevail. Yet, in spite of this,
there Is a good deal of unemployment. We are prosperous,
yet a j;ood mhny people are out of work. What is the rea
son fcjr it? Some people blame mass production itself, which
has increased each worker's output so much that fewer men
are irjeded to produce goods. Mr. Fileno does not believe
this. ' '
.a.
'"flie truth seethS to be," he writes, ''that, to an im
portant degree, it is due lb the fact that there is no enough
mds8productibri and mass distribution. The businesses
that ijre still being rim id the old way turn out products that
cost fijo much and therefore cannot be sold iii cbmpetition
wilhiOse.niade aiid sold by mass methods. The inefficient
employers and distributors are forced out of business. Un
enipioyhieitt results." Mr. Flleiie 16 cltiito hopeful about.it.
He makes the flat prediction that "employment for every
one is! cbmihg because it is clear that scientific mass pro
duction cannot live unless the masses can buy freely the
gobds',S0 produced. It is obvious that the jmusses must be
fully employed in Order that ally industry shall flourish per
. manently.'.' ' " ,
, This, reallj is a startlingly new viewpoint. Business
leader's used to think a certain amoiint .of unemployment
a good, thing. It kept wages down; and lessened the chances
of strikes. Now they are beginning to see that the work
man's fate affects them directly. In a quite unpredictable
fashion it is becoming evident thnt the rich man is his broth
er's keeper; It seems odd lb think that cold, ' dollars-and-cctils
.business may bring the world . closer -to brotherhood
and equality than several centuries of preaching and philo
sophising. But this is an' ago of hew things.
o
Overland gbvefrimelit mail service between Hoseburg
and Cobs Bay, wlileh ceased yciirS ago. with tlio establish
meht oi the Southern Pacific! railway between Eugene and
Powers, May, be reliewed. According to it receht editorial
in tlio Coos Bay Times, altered train service hiis resulted
in tt Sorltius delay in tlio arrival of iiirtii brlgiiiittllig at, points
south of Eugene and as a remedy for the situation Coos
Bay residents rire agitating a proposition, fbr direct hinil
stage connection with Hbseburg, which, it is figured, would
el'fcl-l a Unto saving of eighteen hours. Such a difference
in time certainly gives weight to the demand for better
accomliiodittioii. That it must come sooner oi' later, if agita
tion vrsists, is inevitable in this day of business rapidity
and related traffic regulations. Coos Bay and its tributaries
would-not nlone be the gainier from speedier mail service.
, Uosoburg would benefit as well from the improved coimec
tion,.,so Would numerous other cities having business rela
tions with Coos and Curry counties. And It would be a
welcome sight to Uoseburg to oiice more see mail for those
regions leaving this city by singe, tlohe forever, iif coili-sc,
are the horse-drawn vehicles that conveyed the mails before
rallwny- service was stalled from Eugene, but Hie absence
of olden-day flavor would be more than made up by the
sati.sr.ving relish of modern transportation In the form of
motor stages better suited to the iieeds of preseiil-dny com
merce.'. In view Of the recent annouiieemoiit that the South
ern Pacific company had decided to establish a stage line
ijouveon Koseolirg and Coos I!ay, it is probable that such a
jntu wouio iniiispin-i. uie mans m the event or a change rrom
the rail service. However, no petition for such a change has
so far bceh seiit to Washington, but when such a step is made
IJosebilrg will be glatl to volte an endorsement if it will

POEM FOR TH DAY
by LOUIS ALBERT BANKS
tODAV'S DUTY
' Let's do the duty of the hour.
And do it with our utmost power;
And if it seem a little thing,
Let's make devotion fairly sing,
Put all our strength into the task;
About the future let's not ask.
For that's the way to build a man
Along the simple gospel plan.
Why fret at all about to-morrow?
Why give ourselves that needless sorrow?
For if today we do our best,
i ' It fits us for tomorrow's test.
li Is the spirit of the deed . '
To which out Ciod will give most heed.
So let this hour have all force,
And we shall speed along our course.
, And if tomorrow's surf shall rise,
This work well done. we'll gladly prize;
'Twill fit us for tomorrow's load,
Give hopeful spirit on the road; ' .
The past will be our stepping stone
. To lift us to a higher zone;
'Twill build a solid self-respect
Where all good things we may expect.
Our future hinges oti to-dny,
For God has made the world that way;
It is the earnest girl or boy s
Who finds at last unfading joy;
It is the faithful middle age
That ripens into wisdom sage;
li is tne man with grit to plod
Who wins the paradise, of God.

"This little f:it girl's in our
show. She weighs- a hundred
pounds or so." exclaimed the cir
cus trainer, as the fiit girl made a
bow. The Tinieo all said, "Howiy
do! We're very slud that we know
you. We're going to join the show
and all kH along Bomehow."

Tinies smile.
They walked around the Utile
tents, and Clowny said, "This is

day?" 'Oh, no, we're through,"
the trainer said, "In this small
town. We move ahead to some
place cIbc. We'll pack up now and
then o on our way."
So, down the small tents came,
kerDop. The TInles stood and
watched them drop, and then they
fihouledj "Ve will hflp. Now tell
us what to do." "Just carry tilings
down to oilf train. Your help. I'm
sure, won't be in vain," exclaimed
the trainer. "I will give you food
when you are thrdugh."
"That's fair enough," one Tiny
cried. And all of them turned in
and tried to do their share of
working. They found li lots of fun.
They carried poles and big tent
stakes, till Clowny cried, "My poor
back aches." "Cheer .up," replied
the trainer. " 'Twon't be long till
we are done."
At last the circus train was
packed, and everything was nicely
stacked. The trainer pointed to a
car, and said, "That's where you'll
