The National Good Roads
convention to meet in Portland
Juue 21 to 24 promises to be
one of the greatest features of
the fair and one of the most
beneficial to the state. Oregon's
good roads interests should be
well represented.
V. It is estimated that 30,000
families in New York have
closed their houses and estab
lished themselves iu suburban
homes for the summer. Those
people would make a pretty
good sised city if they were all
gathered together iu one place,
and yet they will not be missed
from the streets of the metro
polis. Boards placed in win
dows will be all that will re
mind city dwellers that any
body has sought fresh air in
" the country. '

long rest, and he proposes to do
so. That ie right. The coun

him to rest so that he may be at
his best when some especially
important question comes for

I
attention. Ex.
