Actn 2:4 1, 4G, 47. ' ' The Legion wins the approval of the entire business com munity when it goes on record against sponsoring street car nivals this year. Although a popular way to raise benefit funds, members of the Legion realize the loss to the com munity that amusement enterprises of this kind produce. And being interested in community needs first and their own financial needs second, the decision against- carnivals is u natural policy. Certainly it is hoped that the policy will become permanent. Oregon is an old country. It even ranks well up in years as a state. The first newspaper published west of the Missis sippi appeared at Oregon City, previous to anything of like ' nature at St. Louis or west. But when we read that Dunham Wright has met and known all of Oregon's governors includ ing the first territorial governor, we decided that the state is really young. Dunham Wright, it is true, is getting along in years, but his spirit is as young as ever. And since tho government of the stale is well within the memory of one man it should be safe to say that Oregon, too, is young especially young in spirit. And it's the spirit that counts. BUSINESS EFFICIENCY You can't do anything these days, if you believe the ex perts, without being on a strict business basis, l.'.cforo 1,he evolution of modern merchandising' a man could T start a little grocery store, for example, and if he sold enough goods to get money to pay his bills with the wholesaler and have enough left for rent and a living for his family, he considered the venture successful. Not so in this age, whether it's a grocery business, a garage business or a chicken business. It used to be that a farmer raised chickens as a side line with his wife doing all the work and getting her pin money from the sale of eggs and spring friers. The number of hens depended on the size of the hen house or the feminine energy of the supervisor, or something else. Costs weren't kept and were seldom considered. And now we read that you have to have -100 hens in order to make money in tlie chicken business. The cost of feeding, housing, marketing, etc., is all figured out in detail. It's as bad as modern store operating. A grocery unit, the expert says must have a volume of $ 10,000 a year to make a fair profit if he is located in the main business, area. His overhead must be so much, his mark-up so much, and so on. And bothersome as nnv Ih these rules laid down by the experts, the casualties in busi ness and on farms throughout the country indicate there may lie some truth to what they say. Hut following the rules and keeping the books and checking the results must be hard on the individual who works the land because he loves the out-of-doors, loves to watch things grow and hates arithmetic and figuring in general. KOl'd'H KA1US AM) SHARP Sl'LlNTKKS At a Washington gridiron dinner an animal event staged by ncvspa)or men when they can "razz" the big men of the government to their faces and gvt away with it President Hoover answered some remarks made about the senate thus: "Some people become impatient at the length of debate. In some ways legislatures are much like the old-fashioned rail fences. Sumo rails are perfect, other are rough. Many of them point in the wrung direction. There arc some with sharp splinters. It covers a lot of ground. Vet the fence itself marches stiaight and performs its function in an effec tive and lasting manner. Those of us who have had oppor tunity to obst-rve legislative Iwidies in other countries, nnd ut the same time to understand some of the varied human ' motives of men. make no apologies for the Senate of the! United States. Together with the House of KepiVsentatives, it has for over a hundred and fifty years not only served the ! American popU but they have time and again proved them-' selves the greatest of alt legislatures of the world." ; Which impresses you as beinu an unusually keen chaiae-; tcrization from one who ought to know. Collectively the! senate does a gtKd job in the long run. Individually there ! are numerous rough rails and shaip splintersUrvHikhai U j and liorahs and U toilettes and the like. And since Urook liart came as ;i hoy from the rail fence areas of Missouii and his never been known to go any one direction consistently, the comnrcnt is more than apt. How nice it is that Hoover can regard his disturbing legislative Udy in that light! How much easier it would be for some presidents to be vexed and ieevcd and irritated by its apparent lack of direction and accomplishment! Rut Hoover, it seems, has woiked with men before m experience that stands him in axxxl stead at the present time. ..Editor and Publisher ..Business Manager .42o -.46o Abe Martin -AS KlenhiintN, drtfiH Milt an' ituvo- (HlfH art' the longest lived tilings of which liter's any record, "Some o' Mime iliiy tho women o tills country an- gcilu' to git foil tip on wwdilu' bottler an' eriK'k.s an' vote wvl," declared Tell Jlinklcy last ctciiln', j OFFICE CAT TlUkOS MA.lt IIO.

In addition to the farm, a targe number of city dwellers stilt stick to batteries because of their ex prrssl belief lhat the AC device will not fit their radio require ments.
