ESPERANTO: NEW COMMERCIAL LANGUAGE Esperanto Is the new, universal commercial language. The Idea of such a nmde-to-order language Is not new, but the others, Volnpuk and sim ilar ones, were failure because of l Ing complicated. But Esperanto Is a success, a big success, and the qulckor you find out something about It the better for you. And, more than that. It w ill he only a few years until every big commercial house will demand of Its clerks as a requisite a knowledge of Esperanto. No boy or young man In Clackamas county, can better employ his leisure time than by mastering Esperanto. The following description of It Is from the Financier, a big commercial and banking newspaper In New York: It is a matter of congratulation, that a really useful, comprehensive and satisfactory neutral language Is com ing into use. We refer to Esperanto, which is being widely taught and adopted In Europe and In the Orient. Esperanto Is so simple, so flexible, and so admirable In Its application that It Is capable of being mastered almost on sight It has no grammar or at least the grammar Is automatic and a tvff hundred words, with the simple prefixes and suffixes, make one the master of a language as useful In car rying on business or other correspond ence, as la English, French or German. Esperanto Is being taught In all Eu ropean centers. The great foreign WANT MAKERS OF HOMES NOT DWELLERS IN SHACKS (Continued from Page 1 ) trees, he could beautify his grounds with lawn and shade trees and have a place to live In resembling a home. As it Is now he and his family are not "living." They are only stopping un til the land Is worn out. or until they can sell the place. Then they will "flit." And remember we are trying to build up the country' with tens of thousands of such men occupying our lands "cumbering the ground" the Scrlntures would sav. And another the very first opportunity to get away. Go along through Wasco, Sherman, Gilliam. Morrow and Umatilla coun ties, back In the wheat belt, and count the -homes." The most of them are veritable shacks, not fit or likely places to live and rear a family In. No wonder so many of them are dis contented and but waiting for some 'sucker" to come along and buy them .out, that they may ''move on" and es tabllsh another "home" of the same sort. To perdition with juch farming and such farmers. They are an in cubus. Tbey have kept our country back until all of the adjacent states have passed us in the march of pro gress, and are still holding us back. A few hours work each day In beau tifying the grounds.

And the first thing you anow you will have an or chard, a garden, aa attractive home, a good farm, and all In the best country God ever gave to any of his children, and you won't want to sell at any price. And there are some veritable homes In the flections mentioned, and may God bless their owners and their fam ilies! They are the salt of the earth: It Is only through these progressive ones that our state has advanced at all, and we are trying to get their neighbors to do as they are doing to wake up and bo somebody, and lead lives worth living. So when we In veigh against the shiftless do not say we will not uphold the progressive ones, the enterprising, the ones who actually have homes "worthy of the names. All praise to them, and our aim and ambition is to got many more State Normal School at Monmouth I better opportunities are open to Normal graduates. School directors appre ciate the superior ability of Monmouth graduates, and the demand far ex ceeds the supply. Catalogue containing full Information will bo sent on up- I plication.

The rest Is the use of little common sense In the rotation of crop which any school boy can tell you. BOARD APPROVES PLAN FOR LOCAL INSURANCE (Concluded from page I ) Are Companies Solvent?
