YOUR MOTHER
Ah, girl) look on this woman in your
home
As you have never looked at her be
fore; Scan well this mother-creature of
your own.
And pause a while to ponder o'er
and o'er .
The things that made her make her
what you know
Those things that work unseen
within the heart
She was a girl a few brief years aga,

have no part.
She, too, loved well the beauty of attire,
Her pulse was quick with all the
joy you feel.
Her crave was for the baubles you ad
mire, Though she. too, had to conquer
their appeal;
There lived in her the selfsame hun
, ger; shilling , - .
Within her were the visions you be
hold, But life came by, its sterner truths
defining.
And now you see a woman, sagged
r and old. .
Through all your helpless babyhood
she hovered
Above you, giving of her strength
alone, ,
Through all the years you've lived
she's bravely smothered
A thousand longings you have nev
er known;
Think you a woman's eyes fogret
their seeing, j
When springtime finery is on display?

No matter how careful you dirve, you can
never tell what the other fellow may do.
Be sure you are in the right in entrusting
your car to a repair man. After the work is
done it's too late to change.
We guarantee satisfaction.

10th and Railroad 0 Oregon City
Think you she has no crave within
her being
For gowns and bonnets, though
shs old and gray?-
Ah, little girl, she heeds your tones of
pleading,
She senses many things you've never
guessed,
And, underneath, her heart is oftimes
bleeding.
Although she answers curtly your
request; '
Go home tonight, whatever be your
sorrow.
And kiss your mother. Note lier
brimming eyes,
And then observe, tomorrow and to
row. The heart that she's been keeping
in disguise.
You've taken blindly all her love and
serving,
You've angry grown because it was
not more;
What have you done, to make you so
deserving?
What have you given save heart
aches, score on score?
Denial is harder far than generous
giving.
And hearts that love you shrink
from such a task;.
Trust in your mother's love; and in
' life's living
Play fair! and seek to serve as
well as ask.

THE PEOPLE'S SAY
County Road Bonding Program
(Continued from last week)
It would seem that our friends at
Oak Grove could look ' away from
Portland, ae well as toward it, and
see that it would pay them to de
velop taxable property in other parts
of the county, toward an equality with
their own. It is difficutl to look
through their eyes and see an ad
vantage to anybody in moving a large
section of Clackamas county into
Multnomah thus adding to the politi
cal and economic power that is not
now wisely and properly used: Maybe
the advantage is to be to the head of
the Jackson Club in giving him a
chance to strengthen his political ma
chine and give a better chance to
claim the spoils that Andrew said be
long to the victor. It would foe -an
advantage to have the bedroom and
the place of business in the same
county. But then, do not build too
many air castles for the bonds are
opt going to be recalled and that fact
will automatically prevent the Jump
into Multnomah as it did before.
The delay in carrying out the road
program, so far, has been a blessing
in disguise as it has saved most of
us from making the mistake of try
ing to make permanent paved roads
with asphalt, which is a well proven
impossibility. If asphalt was the
only material for Ipavements, well
made macadam would be preferable
and more economical in the end. Con
crete is now being contracted at less
than asphalt and a 9 foot povement
7 1-2 inches thick, can be made with
in the limit of $11,000 per mile and
with the aid of the market road funds,
can 'be made wider-' though I think
it would be better to make it 9 inches
thick, leave the macadam at the cen
ter of the road and plan to build an
other 9 foot pavement at the other
side in the future, which would make
an ideal road.
Let us, from all ections of Clacka
mas county, get together on this road
program, talk together, act together,
work together and stay together for
the common good. Let us realize that
cooperative self preservation is the
final law of nature.
Let us do unto others as we would
have others do unto us and let us love
our neighbors as ourselves.
.Finally, fellow democrats, when it
comes to selecting candidates and of
ficers, I believe in a guaranteed anal
yses, truth in fabrics and I always
lookt beneath .the party label to see
whether the contents are true to
name, and ' I think we should tell Mr.
Starkweather to go 'back and sit -on
the probationer's seat until he can de
velop his talent for leadership along
true democratic lines. I have always
admired his talents anl if my political
aspirations took the form of office
seeking, I should envy his opportunH
ties for advancement. But talents
wrongly used are worse than wasted
and opportunities can be thrown
away. There has been many insinu
ations against lawyers but I will take
a good lawyer in preference to a poor
politician, a statesman and an honest
man. He combined all four in one
character and so there was but one
man buried in his grave though all
four may be inscribed on his tomb.
The man counts more than the occu
pation. O. D. BOBBINS.
