Why Buy It At Home Letters Still Arrive Oregon City, Oregon, June 21, 1922. Dear Editor: Imagine Main street, Oregon City, lined with a few ram shackle sceond-haiffi stores, a couple of pool halls, restaurant and drug store or two, and a third-rate bank. You can't. Yet, excepting the court house and post office, that would present a fair picture' of Oregon City's business sec tion if all her citizens pursued the pol icy of buying away from home. These days the retail catalogues of eastern mail order houses reach every home. They are large and colorful, designed with every artifice of clever advertisers to take our retail dollars to Chicago or New York. Often we are tempted to rummage through these catalogues, to write let ters, buy money orders, pay parcel post or express charges. All this to buy something we have not. seen, which may be far from our desires as to color, fit, quality, material or work manship, on the sole strength of clever advertising. But Chicago does not tell us to send it Oregon City dollars because it de sires to increase Chicago payr&lls and Chicago profits. New York does not remind us to help build New York homes and New York industries with our money. Next to our paper and woolen indus tries,' our retail business property pays the heaviest share of local tax ation. Its value is determined by its usefulness for business purposes. And if our dollars do not make our bus iness property valuable,, but add to Portland or Chicago property values, the home in Oregon City will neces sarily pay increased taxes. But we should buy at home for still more, cogent reasons. On the office wall of every retail establishment a sign should read substantially, "Satis fied Customers Build Business." That is the crux of the whole Buy-At-Home idea. The public desires to buy what it wants without delay and according to its own specifications, which are sometimes extremely exacting. In this respect the home merchant excels. He exhibits what he has to sell; he fits you and-suits you before you pay your money. He stands back of his quality and quantity. Always, he is where you can get at him and require first-hand service. If he is the right kind of merchant, he goes out of his way to please, to fill your needs, and to take back or refund for mer chandise which falls below a reason able standard of quality. After you have tried Chicago and Portland' you will find that home ser vice saves you time and money, annoy ance and delay. Buying at home adds to the prosper ity of the man who spends his dollar, as well as the man who receives it. A loyal, industrious community can make itself prosperous. E. B. CHARM AN.

Why They Were "Canned" Perhaps A teacher-who believed in keeping her youngsters in touch with the march of events was beginning a les son on the revolution in Russia. "Now, who can tell me what the ruler of Russia used to be called?" she asked. . - "The Czar", bellowed the class. "Right! And what was his wive called?" .. . "The czarina," two or three ventured "Good," said the teacher. "Now, I wonder if you know what the czar's children were called?" There was a long pause, then one little voice piped up: "Czardines!'; Union Pacific Magazine. Plan To Lower Rates McCoy and Kerrigan members of the Public Service Commission elected through the recall are planning action for the restoration of telephone rates which were in effect before the former commission raised them. Home Buyers' Contest Closed Next week, the announcement of the winners in the Home Buyers' contest will be made and the last of the letters published. Strike Looms Certain It is doubtful if the contemplated railroad strike will be called off. It is set for this week Saturday and will affect 400,000 men. The only action which can now be taken, it is reported, to stop the strike is for the railroads themselves to ignore the cut of ?60, 000,000 in wages, ordered by the U. S. Railway Labor board. Jack Spratt could eat no fat; his wife could eat no lean. You see, they spent their money -on a Henry Ford machine.

TRY THE BANNER-COURIER WANT ADS Woman Was Unduly Alarmed at Grue some Story Which She Overhear in the Street Car. A Cohimbus woman in a trip on an lnterurhnn car "recently sat behind two women who were holding an ani mated conversation, the Indianapolis News relates. She paid no attention to the talk until a part of a sentence reached her ear, through the noise of the enr "in an awful fix, with both legs disjointed." The woman was Im pressed with this tale of suffering and -while she was considering it an other bit of the conversation was wafted to her ears over the roar of the wheels "and one foot nearly off." This was positively distressing, and the woman moved uneasily In her seat, stretching .both feet to assure her self they were in proper condition. Buzz, buzz, went the voices, and then "a hand fill mashed." By this time the woman was having horrified visions of a mangled body. "A wreck," she- said to herself, and to add to her horror the train made a sudden terrible Jolt which sent her heart to her mouth, figuratively speak ing. A smooth place in the road en abled her to hear the last of the grue some tale: "It would cost as much to send it to a doll hospital as it would to get a new one, so fm just going to buy her a new one." landed at Liverpool 609,000 sacks, and at Manchester 419,000 sacks, making a total of 1,088,000 sacks. The flour is contained in bags of 140 pounds weight each, and two bags make what is known as a sack, which Is, there fore, equal to 280 pounds. The Im ports at Liverpool and Manchester, were, therefore, equal to 304,640,000 pounds. Wireless Aids Jewelers. Fifteen hundred small wireless out fits have been installed in Paris jew elry, watch and clock stores to enable the jewelers to catch the correct Greenwich meridian time as it is sent daily at ten o'clock by the Eiffel tow; er. Formerly the exact time had to be obtained from the observatory by telephone. The Installation is simplicity Itself. The outfit, about nine inches in diam eter, is hung on a nail in the wall. A copper wire run down to the cellar or along a water or gas pipe serves as a "ground wire," while the removal of the bulb from a nearby electric light and the insertion of a contact plug take the place of antennae. It can be done In five minutes. ADMINISTRATOR'S NOTICE English Food Importations.
