B. Forbes, describ ing Oregon roads and published in Forbes Magazine, has been quoted iu numerous papers of the country. The following cuipping is taken from The Express, Enfield, Ill.: In five years Oregon has spent $57,060,060 iu road building. How’s that for a population of only 800,- 060! No other state in the union probably comes anywhere near such a per capita expenditure for good roads. Other Pacific states also are energetically constructing the very finest paved righways. Oregon’s roads have cost $30,000 a mile, ex- elusive of bridges. The resuit is that you can now drive hundreds of miles north and south on roads the equal of any that New York, Chicago or any other large city can boast. Also it will very shortly be possible to motor clear through the state of Oregou to the Idaho border line, a distance equal to the total length of England. 1 noticed, too, a great many sub stantial roads in many parts of the western half of the country. Goqd roads always go hand ill hand with a high state of civilization. If the Romans needed good roads in their day, how mueh more does this far- flung continent need them today! Next to necessary expenditures for up to date sanitation no district can invest a generous aincunt of money more wisely than in con structing first-class roads, now so necessary for the expeditious trans portation of products and so con ducive to the development of de sirable social intercourse, without which we can never hope to have our agricultural resources adequate ly developed. Yes, the west is on the right track. NUMBER 39 ♦ ■ Springfield Is Taken Into Camp in Game in Which Team Work Is the Feature. County Court Grants Petition to Roll Grade and Lay Water- Bound Macadam.

Mr. Whitlock had been to Drain attending a meeting of the Oriental brunch of tho Odd Fellows lodge, aud had just returned, riding with Mr. and Mrs. Chesley Churchill and Sam Ferguson in the Churchill car. As the car reached Madison aveuue Mr. Whitlock, who was riding in the tonneau, opened the door, stepped out and jumped from the running board before the driver could bring the car to a stop. The ear was traveling about ten miles ■in hour. Mr. Whitlock, who was unconscious for several minutes, was taken to the office of a physi cian who administered restoratives aud dressed the wounds and the in jured man was taken to his home ou south Sixth street. Though suf fering severely from the shock and weak from loss of blood, Mr. Whit lock is improving und his condition is not believed to be serious.

Chautauqua for Cottage Grove was given an impetus that probably means that this city is permanent chuutauqua city when it was an nounced that the receipts this year covered the entire expense of the week’s session and that the guar antors would have nothing to make up. Every year except one the signers of the contract have had to dig into their pockets for amounts run ning from $3 to $13 to make up a deficit, in addition to carrying the burden of looking after the details of the ticket-selling campaign, of getting the tent ready and of clean ing up the grounds afterward. It now seems that there is sufficient appreciation of chuutauqua to in sure the ticket sale without great effort on the part of the guaran tors. No trouble was experienced in getting a contract signed for next year. Tho Lombard entertainers gave tho Friday evening program aud tho evening prelude and their en tertainment was in keeping with the high elass of the programs of the entire session. Dr. Henry Gaines Hawn, dramatic and oral English instructor of na tional reputation, gave the Friday evening lecture. His subject was “The Soul of things,” iu which he espoused a new philosophy applied to social, business aud civic life und interspersed his lecture with interpretations of u number of pop ular readings. The point he made was that we do not get the most out of living, that we pay too dear ly for pleasures which do not sa tis- fy, that we take no notice of _ thou sands of things about us that should help to make us happy, that we give too much time to a few things mid not enough time to many things. He was unquestionably the most finished speaker who appeared before the chuutauqua here. Norman V. l’earce gave the Sat urday afternoon program, a unique travel lecture on Australia with an exhibition of curios from the world’s curiosity shop, Australia, where birds have beautiful plumage but no song, where flowers are won. ilftrful but huvo no scent, where herds of wild buffalos and wild horses roam the prairies, the home of the kangaroo, the wullaby, the wombat, the laughing juekass and the lyre bird. The Garner jubilee singers gave the Saturday evening program, the closing one of the session. They featured topical numbers, folk songs of the south, operatic mid concert numbers. A total of 874 books was loaned by tho Cottage Grove library dur ing the month of May, 533 being fiction, 18 non-fiction and 323 ju venile. Six uew cards wero taken out. Fines amounting to $9.51 were collected. Three new books were presented to the library, “Saddle Boys of tho Rockies” by Robert Martin „nd two new railway books bjr Miss Stella Adams.

Spencer, of Ash hind, lost a tiro and rini while in the Cottage Grove country, he did the natural thing to do—he placed a lost nd ill The Sentinel and asked that tho tire be left at the Nelson service station. A few days later he wrote: “It pays to advertise. A few days after placing ail in your pa|>ei I received word that my tire and rim wero at Nelson’s awaiting my pleasure. ” —TEN THOUSAND A DAY FOR ADVERTISING. —Wm. Wrigley, of chewing gum fume, spends $16,000 every day for advertising. —he must get results or he would not have the money to spend. —other advertisers must also get /exults from their expenditures and some of them are enormous. —for instance, pick up the Saturday Evening Post and it is never kicking for ads. —its color pages sell every week for $8500, I, and the cover pages bring the same figure; black and white pages sell at $7000 per ' issue, and the ' center spread brings $17,000.
