NEW COUNCIL TAKES
UP WORK OP OLD
Frtd M. Rowlajr, Special Agent of the
Equitable Saving« and 1-oan A«.'n
m rkii known «orne interetting fact«
pertaining to the inventing of money.
On Monday night o f this week the
bid city council met for the last time
But few people realize the difference
(■«tween th« Kental power end the
Earning power o f their money.
Some
are r mtented with a »mall rent for the
u»e o f their money, while others not
content with a reasonable rent for the
«time. Invest 11 themselves I n some
highly »perulative investment and they
thereby not knowingly overwork their
capital.
The Earning power o f money is best
known by t h e real financiers, they
study this all important question and
they are thereby best qualified to know,
as this knowledge comes only by years
o f careful study and experience.
There is a common fallacy that while
for legal advice we go to lawyers and
for medicai advice we go to physicians,
and for the construction of great works
to engineers —financing is everybody’s
business. As a matter o f fact it is the
most profound and complicated o f them
all.
Just now a revolution in the financial
world is going on to the profit o f the
rareful investor and now is tho time to
act, start at once, take one o f our sav-
lugs certificates, rompcl yourself to
save just so much Just so often you
will profit by doing this and will soon
begin to realize as hundreds have al
ready realized that the difference be
tween the rental power and the earn
ing power ot your money means a com-
pot«ncy for life.
We have over $3,000,000 in assets.
Our securties which are held by the
slate consists o f nothing but Itealestate
First Mortages on homes ana back o f
this is a quarter o f a century o f suc
cessful business operations. What we
have dune in the past 25 years is the
best promise o f what we will do in the
years to come.
the past year’s work by the Mayor
showed that considerable had been done
and that there was much more to do in
the future.
A fter the new members o f the coun
cil, Mrs. Emma Wilbur and C. D. Stay-
*on had been escorted to their places

.by the retiring members, E. Roy and
Goo. Spaniol, Mayor Beauchamp thanked
tiie latter for their hearty co-operation
« d help in the past two years that
they had been witn him. Shortly after
the council adjourned.
The first regular meeting o f the city
council for 1815 was the next night,
Tuesday, January 5
Little real business was done but
many things were talked over and com
mittees appointed to investigate «ever-
al different subjects that will come up
in detail at the next meeting, which
I wiil be the first Tuesday in February.

BUY EARLY MOVE
MENT IS NOW ON
The Eastern states have started a
movement called the “ Buy it Now”
movement.
It is said that if all per
sons, especially those in tjie agricultur
al communities, will buy their necess
aries, tools, implements etc. now it
will start the spring trade up with a
rush a n d everything will be fairly
humming by tbe first ot May.
With May wheat at better than $1.30
the proposition has something more
than hot air back o f it, for no doubt
the wheat acreage wiil be greatly en
larged this year, and manv more im
plements will be demanded oy t h e
growers. Also there will be a greater
call for help from the wheat areas,
which will improve business to no small
extent.
The automobile companies are pre
paring for the biggest year’s business
m their history; the lumber trade is
looking brighter every day and the
prospects are encouraging for a year
ot unprecedented industry everywhere.
In the meantime the careful buyer
will scan the markets and newspapers
for bargains in what he wants, and the
farmer o f the Santiam valley should
not overlook the f»ct that the Deidrich
Hardware store o f this city has put on
a bargain sale o f just such things as he
needs.
Better cat! in and look them
over before the other fellow beats you
to it.
FIRE RELIEF ASS’N
HAS GOOD YEAR
(Special to the Mail)
On January 2, the Firmer« Fire Re
lief Association o f Sublimity Oregon,
held their 18th annual meeting at Sub
limity. The meeting was well attend
ed and all of the members took an ac
tive interest in its proceedings.
The Sec-Treas. report showed that
there were more policies for insurance
issued during the laat year than in any
year previous.
Theie were 63 policies issued, insur
ing 82 buildings and contents for :h
amount o f $61.460, and December 1,
1914 there were 434 policies in force ■
suring 702 buildings and contents for
$303,774.
The Treasurer’ s report showed that
January 1, 1914 there was in the Tr<.
urers hands $473 57.
Received during
the year $92.40. Fire loss during the
year, only $3.50. Total salary and in
cidental expenses, $201.26, leaving
$355.72, Cash on hand.
During the last 19 years the average
cost for fire loss and expenae amounts
to $1.50 per $1000 per year.
This low cost is principally attributed
to having their own directors as solici
tors, thereby preventing hazardous and
over insurance risks.
There were provisions made to have
ample reserve funds in the future, so
as to pay all claims promptly on de
mand.
The following officers were elected
for the ensuing year; F .A . Bell Presi
dent, Sublimity; Chas. Hottinger Sec-
Treas, Sublimity; Directors— W. H.
Downing, Shaw; B. Minton, Seio; P. C.
Freres, Klumb; Henry Steinkamp,
Aumsville; John Bender, Jordan.
WHO KNOWS OF
A CRIPPLED CHILD.
Countv Superintendent W. M. Smith
has received an appeal from the Ore
gon S t a t e Federation o f Women’s
Clubs, asking him to tell their hospital
committee about anv crippled children
in thia county who could be sided by a
state-wide organization to furnish free
medical treatment o f the most modern
scientific kind in all cases where tbe
family income is not sufficient for ex
pensive consultation with specialists.
The Federation, which includes a
hundred women’s clubs in ail parts o f
tbe state, asks anyone who knows o f a
little victim o f an accident, o f spinal
meningitis, o f infantile paralysis, o f
tuberculosis in the bones or joints, or
any other crippling cause, to write the
details o f the case to Mrs. Millie R.
Trumbull, Secretary Child Welfare
Commission 250$ Third Street, Port
land, Oregon.
The club women maintain that the? ■
little cripples, besides being the moat
pitiful o f ail cases o f helplessness, and
besides being entirely without organiz
cd assistance in contrast with t h e
great state institutions which care for
the deaf, the blind, the feeble-minded
and even the delinquent, are also the
most curable if treated m time, and the
most able when so treated to make
good, strong, useful citizers instead o f
