Ben Franklin
who used to run a newspaper down East years ago, also edited
an almanac which contained some wise sayings. Here Is one
of them:
"The way to wealth, If you desire It, Is as plain as the way
to market. It depends chiefly on two words Industry and
frugality. He that gets all he can honestly and saves all he
gets (necessary expenses excepted) will certainly become
rich."
What Den said was not only true at that time, but It still
holds good at the present day.
There Is no better way to save than to have a bank account
We will be glad to have you start an account at this bank.

Oregon City, Or., March 20, 08.
Gentlemen:
I would like to submit a few names
that might be used for the local aggre
gation in the Trl-City league. On ac
count of our Industries, the "Factor
ies." "Manufacturers," "Factorymen,"
"Mill Men," 'Millers," "Jolly Millers."
From the electric plant, the "Elec
trics," "Electricians," "Voltas." From
our ever famous falls, the "Cataracts,"
"Falls City Victors," and "Falls City
Sluggers." The number of Oregon City
people employed in Portland, and
making the trip every day suggests
the name "Commuters." Others are
"Red Sox," "Cardinals," "Woolwork
ers." "Steel-heads," and "Pulp Toss
ers." Last, but not least Is the "Pa
per Weight Nine," or "Paperweights,"
coming as they do from a city that is
vortually built from the paper Indus
try, they are expected to do as a pa
per weight does, keep the fluttering
changes of the league standing well
under control, and always remain on
top. .
Respectfully yours,
PHILLIP SINNOTT.
P. S. How does the "Pioneers"

O'gon City Enter-
- .me which I
name for the
in to represent
I our city iu ,CIty league:
"IDYLIAS."
The reasons I have for thinking
this an ideal name for the ball team
are as follows:
1. A very pretty name.
2. Short, very easily and quickly
pronounced.
3. Catchy to all people not only
base ball fans, but the public at
large.
4. Last and best reason: It will
make a nice emblem on a shirt or
cap.
Trusting that this name will be
considered among the rest of your list,
Iremain, your most respectfully,
CARL P. NEHREN.

I suggest we name the Oregon City
ball club after the Oregon City Falls,
and call It Falls City Club.
