Job Well Done

tuitions.
Tho Slanfleld bill brought re

a permanent solution.
Ouy Cordon of Koseburg who Is

congressional delegation, worked
out tho bill which was yesterday
passed by tho house and which
has the general approval of con
gressional leaders. This bill not
only provides a pcrnuinent solu
tion of tho problem but will allow
I lu counties to rorolvo 85 per cent
or more of their lost taxes. A
further advantage or ('onion's
plan Is that It provides for puy

r "Yes, Serene Shores is the
name. Of course 1 ve never been
there and don't know much about
it, except that it baa a wonderful
location and a fine beach."
"Well, we might look at that,"
the men agreed as 1 crossed to
Miss Pegler's table.
I couldn't quite make out what
Kort of men they were. Usually I
can place all my customers al
most as I look at them, for when
you're a hostess you have u chance
to study human nature. Well, it
is not likely they'll ever cross
my path again, even If they de
cide to stay at Serene Shores for
a hit. Probably they were jiibt
businessmen on holiday.
"Say, Cal," I exclaimed ns I
went Into tho old man's workshop
in the afternoon, "what can you
tell me about Serene Shores?"
"You're not thinking of going
there, are you?"
"Of courso not."
"Well, that's all right, for I've
never soen such a lot or tougli
guys as they've got there,"
"Tough guys?"
"Yes! No one ttcenis lo linow
wbo the man is that owns It. . . .
lu fact some of the folk.i mound
hero are suspicious it ain't what
it seems."
"Oh, goodness! I had a couple
of customer today and they
wanted to stay in the neighbor
hood, so I suggested Serene
Shores."
"Well, you don't have to voiry
about that. It' they're not the kind
to lit into that place they'll tind

know what kind of folks lie u ;(s

Friday: Walked across to Miss
Pegler's cot t ago Ihis afternoon
(sho Invited me yester lay).
Though she calls it a 'collage' it
looks like a mansion wih its huge
granite firoplaces, oriental scatter
rugs, hand-woven draperies. She
talked a lot about Dick . . . told
rrlo it was she who made him give
up bis job in New York,
"You know, my near, be w as
working far too hard."
"Ho did liKik rathe' worn out
when be arrived." I agreed,
though I can't Imagine t ha I work
alone could give such a strange
expression to any one's face. To
my way of thinking Dick had a
bunted look in his eyes, when he
cam- up here.
"Pom- hoy, he really needs the
Influence of a girl like yourself.
I'm sure association with you
this summer fch4itd have a
steadying influence on Dick . . .
besides he's really fond of you.
! Nothing would giv e nie j,i cater

him."
"Oh. Miss Pegler." 1 exclaimed.
J can hardly see myself hi the
'i olo of a mot her and wife . . .
guess going wIMi Roger spoiled
me . . . he's so different troni

Roseburg Team's Weakness
on Bases Shown, While
OiUhitting Rivals.
(Hy Charles V. Stanton)
Vast I. v improved hy a tough,
three-game series with the travel
ling Vancouver Legion Juniors,
tlm Douglas County Juniors square
on mis ween lor intensive train
ing preparatory to the sectional
I hie playoffs.
The games with the Vancouver
team brought out the weaknesses
of the local squad and gave the
coaches a complete picture of the
work necessary before the boys
take up further competition in the
elimination for the state title.
The next contest will be with
Corvallis, the first of a three-game
series being tentatively scheduled
at Corvallis next Sunday. The win
ner of the Roselnng-Corvallis ser
ies will go to Wood burn to com
pete there in a four-lea m playoff
for the slate championship.
The series w ii h Vancouver de-
veloped uudispillably the fact that
the Douglas Count y Juniors are
an exceptionally hard bitting
group. They onthit (heir opponent
in each of t he t hree games, but
lost because of inexperience ami
training.
Roseburg lost two of the three
games and tied the third. The
Karnes were featured by heavy
hitting on the part of both teams,
I bui Rosehurg had the host of the
play ai h:, despite the fact that
one of the visiting pitchers, who
was knocked out of the box last
night, is contracted for semi-pro
hull upon his return to Canada.

RAMBLINGS
OF THE
NEWS-REVIEW MAN
BY PAUL JENKINS
CONSIDERABLE talk is ram
pant concerning the slap the
Roseburg Ministerial association
recently took at alleged Indecen
cies connected with some visiting
carnivals ; at pinball machines ;
and at the city council. Some
criticism has been directed at the
association members because of
their stand in these matters.
Such criticism scarcely is war
ranted. 1 doubt if any normal per
son, young or old, could visit a
nudist "show" without feeling u
bit ashamed of himself for having
dono so, and hoping no one he
knew had seen him there.
Asido from any moral issues in
volved, pinball playing is a suck
er's gajne. Kveu those who can
afford the expense and excuse It
because "it is so much sport,"
must, if I hey think of ft at all.
feel a bit us h amed and guilty oer
having thus contributed to the
successful operation of a rarket
often controlled by a ring of crim
inal, unscrupulous men, enemies
to every self-respecting citizen in
the country.
As for the ussociat ion's attack
upon the city council, your re-ac-tiou
probably is about the same
as mine. These latter gentlemen
can take a lot of abuse anyhow.
1 hope they can they certainly
a;k for it when they run for their
offices. I have an idea they pre
fer lo do that which the most peo
ple among their constituency
urges thetu to do. Hy carefully
sifting the lambastlngs they re
ceive, they finally can make up
their minds as to what (be ma
jority desires. At any rale, these
criticisms give them something to
think ahnut.
The influence of the churches
upon the council, und upon the
public, is waning. And that is
something for the ministerial as
sociation to thluk about.
Seldom do I go to the bench
that 1 don't think of the middle,
west man that came out to the
Pacific slope many, many years
ago. He'd always heard of the
ocean in a hazy sort of way, with
out really knowing much about it.
He decided to lake Ills family
along and have a look.
So he loaded them in a wagon
at Forest drove, along with a lot
of camping equipment, and head
ed over the dales Creek hills,
down the Wilson river and on
through Tillamook to the beach
above Net arts Hay.
He arrived there at night, dur
ing a low l ide. He liked the hard
firm sand near the water so veil
the ball, failing to take advantage
of opportunities to advance on
bases and to cross the plate with
runs after reaching scoring posi
tion. Vancouver's margin of vic
tories was in the base running de
partment and was due solely to
more experience and training,
(liven equal practice and coaching,
the local team would undoubtedly
he fully equal to the Vancouver
iles. despite the fuel the latter
were selected from about StiO
youngsters, while the local squad
of la players was picked from only
two score applicants.
"llus" Sporer, ace buiier of the
Roseburg team, was highly praised
by the coaches and handlers of the
j Vancouver squad, who said that
npiiiiM was me uesi jmi-iiei uie
visitors had faced and was super
ior to any hurler, including those
of their own group, they had found
in junior ball.
The improvement shown by the
Uoseburg team during the brief
period in which t tie three games
were played is evidenced by the
fact that in the first game the
locals wore beaten IS to !), despite
a II to 11! superiority in hits,
while last night they were beaten
S to I. after leaditig most of the
way. The four-run rally which gave
Vau'-ouvei- he victory w us aided
principally by darkness, which
made Holding difficult and allow
ed a ball to escape from a fielder
and net on nt for at least two of
tiie runs. Hunter, the top pitcher
for the Vancouve rites, was baited
out of the box by the locals who
gat hered eight hits, while Sporer
yielded only six safeties.
Experience Lack Fatal
Tho lack of experience ou the
part of t he Rosehurg team w as
show n in the sixth inning w hen
they failed to score with the bases
loaded and none out, although the
runner ou third had at least three
chances lo score but failed to take
advantage of Hie breaks. Training
in base running is expected to be
given chief stress prior to the Cor
vallis game.
The Douglas county team is dis
trict champion by default, as no
other American Legion ost In the
he decided to camp there. Every
one went to bed early, being tired,
and figuring on getting a good
look at the ocean on the morrow,
anyhow.
Several hours later the gent
awoke with a start. A big incom
ing wave always there is oue at
such a time in the tide had wash
ed clear into, and around the tent.
("Hell," he shouted, leaping from
his wet blankets and running out
side, "what's going on here?" Re
turning immediately he commenc
ed thioniu bis wife and kids out,
right and left. "Run for your
lives," he cried, "there's been a
cloudbutst!"
Tillamook was quite a town in
those days. About the only easy
contact it had with the outside
world was by boat, and that wasn't
as easy as it sounds.
Nearly everyone there, it seem
ed to me, was a relative of mine.
A great-uncle had emigrated there
in tho early days, and he'd had a
big family of girls, ami one son,
all of whom had married, soon
enough. "All of them were pro
lific devils," Uncle was fond of
saying. They must have been.
I had somo other several-times
removed cousins who lived in
Hillsboro. They ran the old Tua
latin hotel there, und were rath
er' high-falutin folks for those
days. One time a Tillamook rela
tive straggled over the hills to
their homo and, wishing to enter
tain him, they took him to a show
